Hi all,

 

I would like to initlize a control to a new default value? I was looking into property nodes and invoke node, I can use invoke node to initialize it to default but how to change the default value from within the block diagram ? is it possible even ?

 

Best Regards

Yes, you should use a configuration file of some sort.  I personally prefer the *.ini file type using the Configuration File VIs NI has made.

hi Crossrulz,

 

I am already using that, it just poped in my mind that maybe if there is a invoke node to default the value, there might be a way to set the last value as default as well 🙂

There is no executable out there (other than a virus) which does that.  You have to save the configurations in an external file of some sort.
