Is it possible to have mutually exclusive dialog radio buttons?

Hello Bruin-Friend:


I guess you are having fun in Alaska after all!
Well, noting that you are a perfectionist, I took the liberty to point out 2 small glitches that this approach would still have.
1. The GUI still allows users to select more than one values, even though the action does not �brighten� the indicator (in short it�s a bit confusing).
2. Even if you solve point 1. (with better labeling or case structures), it will be not as intuitive as the �customized glider method� to add or delete options for future upgrades of the GUI, should it be needed.

Just my 2Cents anyway

Salutations!

Well, I don't know about being a perfectionist, but I'm always up to a challenge :+) I have to admit, 90% of everything I know about Labview I learned on these forums (or is that "fora") The "official" documentation of Labview leaves a bit to be desired, but it's more than made up for by hanging around here.
Some of our people are at a big ionospheric conference in Santa Fe....it's a yearly thing. Been there a couple of times, myself....there are some real interesting characters there. Science geeks can get pretty passionate if you push the right buttons!

Very Elegant, sir! I've also worked out an approach that uses polling to determine the state of pressed buttons, but we've probably flogged this problem into oblivion. By the way, you've probably discovered that the "official" labview compound arithemetic node does NOT properly do exclusive OR with more than two inputs! Apparently this is an oversight that's been propagated since the earliest versions. Probably not worth fixing, since methods like yours work fine. Just a note!

Some how the way of customisation of the fron t panel is still not clear to me . Can you explain the steps you followed to create the front panel .

Thanks in advance

A built-in radio buttons control is available in LabVIEW 7.1. Visit the Knowledge Base for more information.

How would Mike's radio_button.vi 10 KB from 4-22-2003 be modified to select a case in an event structure?

Here is how I would do it.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the quick response but I'm a bit in the backwoods and only have 9.0, ergo, I can't open the VI.

Thanks

Here you go.

I ran across this thread trying to recall how to do this.  I thought I would post this simple solution for anyone else looking to do this.
