Crazy Table Control

[Andrey_Dmitriev]

Colleagues,

Just found on one of LabVIEW forums.

When Modern Table control is used and center justification is enabled and control crossed origin, then behaviour slightly weird:

On editing attempts some cells or headers travelling to the left (take a note - you don't need to run VI, simply click):

Tested in LabVIEW 2010 and 2013. Not sure if can be reproduced in the latest 2014 or other versions.

Looks like small bug, but I guess BreakPoint board is more suitable for this, because its so funny.

VI (downsaved to 8.0) in attachment.

Andrey.

I encountered this with a regular table before.  I found the solution on the forums somewhere but I'm not sure if I'll be able to find it again.  Anyway, If you move your table to quadrant 4 of the VI (that is, the origin is to the top left of the table) it will not happen anymore.

EDIT:  I found this thread, but it is not the one I am referencing.

EDIT again:  Aha!  Found this one.  I'm not sure if it's the original one I was talking about, but Saverio saves the day.

Thank you for the 4th quadrant trick! It works and it is also more elegant than Justifying the text to the left, because i can still choose to have the text in the center!

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the problem was!
