I've actually tested this in labview 7.1 and the problem is still appears. When I tested Mike Siebel's package using 7.1 I don't see the problem. Anyone else have any ideas, or why dialog tab has a problem?
Thanks for the great example illustrating the behavior! I was able to reproduce it and I passed it onto our R&D department so that they can investigate it. In the mean time, the best workaround is to do exactly what you did in your example -- avoid the RingText.Text property and instead use the Strings[] property indexed to the current value. The Strings[] property returns the correct value regardless of whether the enum ring is visible on the front panel. Thank you so much for reporting the behavior and keep posting!
