Hello,
I control the posotion of a microscope stage by entering a number into a string. In order to send the number to the microscope stage I use a push button connected to a case structure. I would the event to occur (the movement of the stage) when I simply press the enter key.
Thanks in advance,
Gaby

Hi Gaby,
you can use an event structure with a key up or down event. Check the return key and start your process if the event occurs.

You .jpg looks like the properties for a string control not a boolean. A boolean (your push button) will have the toggle properties.
