If you want to change the color of the LED use the the property node 'Colors[4]'. It is an array with 4 clusters, each cluster containing two U32 numbers for the FG and BG colors. The first two elements are the colors of the ON and OFF state of the LED. The remaining two are probably for the transitional states of the BOOLEAN LED, you probably won't need them.

What are theses "transitional states"?

Can I change the color of a blinking led? (eg. blink between green and red)

Ah, well you need to create a custom pop-up VI. Put a timer inside of it and have it close after a certain timeout.

ok. thanks.

Hi. Blocks the user interface thread? Not sure what you mean.

I meant: if I use e.g. the One Button Dialog in a sequence, the sequence stops until you click the button.

Or if you use it in a while loop, labview waits until you 'acknowledge' clicking 'ok'.

I want to keep two options: user click on the button or, after few seconds/minuts, if nobody clicked, I want the pop-up to be closed automatically.

Were you asking how to make your own custom pop-up? You know that one VI can call another VI like a subroutine, with inputs and outputs, right?

Yes, this I know.

Thanks for the fast answer!

Hi all,

I'm quite new in labview, and perhaps this is very easy isue for you... anyway, I would like to write a custom dialog, because the standard "One Button Dialog" and "Two Button Dialog" block the user interface thread, thereby potentially postponing operations involving VI running.

Only one thing: I work with labview version 6.0.2!

Thanks!
