Ring problem. Need help.

I catched problem like described below by other user of CVI. I take this message
in natinst.public.labwindows-cvi.general before. But nobody answered.
Thanks.

Hi,

I just converted a program that controls an automated test station from CVI
5.0 to CVI 5.5.
A problem came up that I'm not sure how to solve.

The code displays a text message and makes it flash on and off by using a
timer
that alternately calls the following:

SetCtrlAttribute(panBTMain, PAN_BTMAIN_TXT_ENTER_TEST_INFO, ATTR_VISIBLE,
1 );


SetCtrlAttribute(panBTMain, PAN_BTMAIN_TXT_ENTER_TEST_INFO, ATTR_VISIBLE,
0 );


There is a ring control on the panel. When you click it to make the choices
drop down,
the ring control "automatically" clears itself a
nd pops back up before the
operator can
make the selection in the ring control.

This didn't happen in CVI 5.0

Any ideas on how to get around this?

This is fixed in CVI 5.5.1 (MStudio 1.0.1). You can get the new version as
a free upgrade to Measurement Studio 1.0 from http://www.ni.com/upgrade.
You can also download the 5.5.1 runtime engine which will fix this problem
immediately if you don't want to wait for the new CD. It's available at
ftp://ftp.ni.com/support/mstudio/cvi/fixes/5.5.1/RTE/.
