Enable an item in menu ring

[Veeru]

Good Morning

I have problem in enabling a particular item in menu ring.

I have disabled few items in the ring control using the Property node[Disabled Items]. I want to enable those disabled items one by one(whenever i want)

Thanks

Hi Veeru

Just use the property node [Disabled Items] again, but remove the element you want to enable from the array.

Thanks Daniel

You mean removing the element from an array.(We can do using the Insert and delete lement from array)

I have programmed in a way,there is separate button for each item in the menu ring.By pressing a button the corresponding disabled items needs to be enabled.

Thanks

The [DisabledItems] property is an array. If you want to disable all elements, the array will be [0,1,2,...,# elements-1].
To enable element 2, search for '2' in the array and remove it. Write the array back to the [DisabledItems] property.
See code snippet.



Element to enable contains the index of the ring item to enable.

Try the attached vi. You needed a stop event, a shift register to update the ring items and a way to index adding new elements.

Sorry,sometimes it is not deleting the correct item(when i checked in the properties[Edit Items>>sequential values is getting unticked automatically even if we set in tick)]

Thanks

OOps.. Sorry.. you can't have the same number twice.

Now has a warning and will not duplicate numbers.
