make button wait

If I have a listbox of items, and everytime the user click on an item on the listbox, the corresponding cluster appear. If the user click on item A, cluster A appears, click on B, cluster B appears, etc. With every cluster, if the user click on the OK button, a checkmark is sent back to the item in the list. However, the user has to be able to scroll through the checkbox even if OK was not clicked. How would you do something like this? I tried to put the event structure for OK in, but the program will not let me scroll through the list of items in the listbox until OK is pushed. I need for OK to be just an option while I scroll through the list. Thanks

I am not sure if I totally understand the question but maybe I can help. Are you using an event structure for the list box? Or when you tried to add the OK button event did you select the Lock Front Panel Until Event Case for the Event Finishes button?

If that is selected it is possble that the events are blocking the front panel, therefore you can't scroll.

If I am aff the mark can you attach a really simple VI that shows what you are running into?

Evan,

Thanks for responding and trying to understand my question. I know it's confusing what I was asking, but I already figured out how to do it with a case structure. But thanks anyway 🙂

Have a good day
