tree control interactive cell

[asche]

I am trying to organize program options in a tree. Some can be changed at runtime. How do I make the 2nd columns in the tree accept user input?
+ Parameter Selection
|-- X=................| Enter value here
Thank you very much.

Hello �

From your description, I understand that you are trying to type some text in the 2nd column of a tree control during run time.

One way of doing this is by using an Invoke Node. Please see the VI I have attached. The case structure is for you to have time to type the text you want to add in the �Text to be written:� control. Otherwise, new items are added continuously. Press the �Write� button when you are ready to send the text to the tree control.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your help. Your suggestion is essentially the way I do it now. I had something more fancy in mind, sort of in-line input. I guess the closest description is showing a text control/ring/enum in place of the second column and storing the input from that to the child text. The whole button concept seems not very intuitive and cumbersome. Thanks.

Hi Vences,

I am currently working in editing the MAX configuration as user friendly without opening the MAX. I need to create editable cells in a tree control that allows the user to edit the configuration information directly. I have attached the sample image.

I tried to do it but I couldn't find the correct way. Please help me regarding this.
