I will try this out.

 

Thanks to all

Hanee,

 

if you know the number of elements in the array during edit time, you should follow Ian's suggestion and display the elements in a cluster. This will enable you to set attributes for dedicated elements.

The downside of this approach is less scalability of the software.

 

hope this helps,

Norbert

Hi Norbert and Lan,

 

Yeah that is correct I can blink the cluster element one by one. Here the small problem is I can't have vertical scrollbar if cluster has lot more elements. The vertical scroll bar will work only in case of array.

 

Please find me the way how to enable vertical scroll bar in cluster.

 

Many Thanks

Haneef

Aha!

Perhaps a better solution for you would be to use a listbox.

The attached gives you the idea. You might need to play around a bit to get blinking rather than just highlighted, and possibly to prevent user mouse clicks, but this shouldn't present too many problems.

EDIT: looks like Ian beat me (mine is less complicated, thought!) 😄

Here's a version that cycles throught all items, blinking each twice.
