Windows cross button Problem.

[babu726]

Hi 

I am Trying to replace a Stop button of a while loop by windows cross button by using event structure. Looks like the VI window closes but it does not stop. I am using this vi as a sub vi. So the block diagram might look stange. Please try running the main vi. Can you help me figure out what is wrong? I want the same funtionality for both the cases.

The windows x button closes the panel. It will not influence the running operation.

To do what you want, you need to create an event structure with a "windows close?" filtering event, discard the event and send a TRUE to the stop terminal of the while loop.

Here's a quick draft. Make sure the subVI is set to open the front panel and close afterwards, then close it before running.

Hi Altenbach,

 Thanks. It works after a little modifications.
