PDA string control does not change

[Michael_Munroe]

New VI created in LV8.6.1 for Mobile target from Mobile Portrait template.  I drop a string control, specify a default value and wire a dialog to display the value at the push of a button using the provided event structure.  Then compile, sync and run.  Change the value of the string control using the pop-up keyboard and hit the button.  The value displayed is always the default value.

Good Afternoon Michael,

This is a bug in Mobile Module 8.6 that affects strings and numerics.  I have filed the appropriate internal documentation (CAR#155315) for this to be fixed in a future version of LabVIEW.

The current workaround is to change your text justification to Left instead of Center and your program will work as expected.
