Click to Edit Table Using an Array of Clusters

[David-A]

Overview
This VI provides a clean interface for a user to enter data of varying types into a table.

Description
The user interacts with a table that is comprised of an array of clusters that appear to be a single control. The clean interface is created by program hiding and unhiding several different types of controls. The data type and position of the control that is unhidden and moved is determined by the field in the table that the user clicks on. Once the user has entered their desired value and pressed enter, the control that was overlay on top of the table is set back to hidden and all that remains is the view of the table. This provides a clean, scalable interface for large data sets.
