Event structures - which event is processing

[vladosaurus]

Hi everybody,

I work with an event structure and as you can see in the picture I have one event case that ist controlled with multiple events: how can I control the case structure in relation with the event that is being processed at that moment?

Another explanation: when the event source is "1:" the case structure should move into "1:" case, and if the event source is "2:" then it should move to the case "2:"

Thanks in Advance

Can you not wire 'NewVal' into the case select terminal?

Also, if you want different things to happen for different events, I would recommend using separate event cases.

Are "1" and "2" controls? Then you could e.g. take the ctrl-ref from the event-"cluster" and make a property node and pick the name and feed it to your case structure.

Thanks for your answer.

I cant find that property node, can you please advice me which one to use?

Right click the Source terminal and create a constant.  This terminal will only output a constant that indicates where the event originated from and does not indicate which control was clicked.  Options are:

1. LabVIEW UI
2. ActiveX
3. User Event
4. Other...

I was looking at that the other day and found it odd that "Other..." while listed was not selection that would stick.

Sure enough.  Turn off Allow Undefined Items on the constant and it goes away.  I'm not even sure what other sources are possible.
