Self Stimulating Xcontrols

[viSci]

Think of the intriguing possibilities...

Actually, my interest is in creating encapsulated graphic simulations using xcontrols.

I am wondering if it is possible to have an xcontrol execute periodically, perhaps with events from a 10ms timer or self regenerated events?

Ideally, all the code would reside within the xcontrol.

Yes, you could do this. The XControl is always running so I don't see the problem. You could have the event structure register for events of interest.

I've posted an example to NI.com that does this:

Aristos:

Your X-Control example appears to be missing one component: < LED-ctl ref scroll.vi>
