CAn I make a push button LED blink

Take the"modern" pushbutton control.

 

The LED on the control is on when the control is pressed (true) and off then false.

 

Can I make the LED blink when false and be on solid like normal when true?

 

I tried the property node "blink" but that kakes the whole control blink (and looks stupid)

Do you have anything against cheating?

 

Could probably also make an XControl if you feel masochistic enough.

Hi RTSLVU,

 

Here is another example of how you can cheat to get it done. It combines a custom Boolean LED and a regular Boolean Push Button. If you don't want to mess with custom controls, you can overlay a regular Round LED Boolean (stretching it out a bit makes it fit better) over the existing LED on the Push Button, it'll just look a little different.

 

Thank you for choosing National Instruments.
