How to invisible LED in cluster from front windows

[Mo7mmed]

Hi guys,
I have cluster inside array1*8 it has three LEDs, sometimes i need one or two LEDs, so how to invisible extra LED from cluster.
I knew how invisible some buttons or string...etc. But my question how to invisible inside cluster that is inside array

Thanks and best regards.

Hi Mo,

you do it the same way: using property nodes…

You know in an array all elements share the same properties? You will not be able to hide only LEDs in one cluster element of your array, they will be hidden in EACH element!

[Sam_Sharp]

I don't think you can - you can't easily address individual items in a cluster - especially not inside an array. You might need to think about displaying your data in a different way.

If you made it an array of LEDs inside a cluster, then you could only write to one, two or three of the LEDs (i.e. the array size) - the remaining items would appear greyed out.

If the elements are always zero based in your array (meaning: you don't want to "remove" elements in an arbitrary location within the array) you can limit the amount of displayed rows/columns (depending on the alignment of the array) by setting the "Number of Visible Rows" or "Number of Visible Columns" property.

Hi GerdW, Sam and Norbert_B
Thank you about your comment.
Let me give you example
I want to show two LEDs at 1*1 inside array and three LEDs at 1*2 inside array..... Etc.
Cant I invisible one LED at 1*1????
Thank you.

Can you create a small design draft showing what you are up to?

Without that, i have a very hard time to imagine your request....

Hi Mo,

I want to show two LEDs at 1*1 inside array and three LEDs at 1*2 inside array...

What is "1*1 inside array", what is "1*2 inside array"?

Cant I invisible one LED at 1*1?

In an array all elements share the same properties (except value)!

No, you CANNOT have an element with different properties than other elements!

Hi Mo7mmed

I couldnt understant too. but I think "Numcols" in property node, may help you.

Right-click and LED, Create Property Node.

OK Array of clusters containing "Invisible" controls-

Since all elements in an array must share all properties except value we need a solution where the value property controls visibility as far as users are concerned.  LEDs (Booleans) are out-

BUT, if you used Color boxes instead of booleans you can set the value to "LED Off" "LED On" or "Transparent"
