Copy cursor coordinates on click to an excel file

[masaegart]

Hi,

I'm pretty new to LabVIEW and have been searching for help with this for quite some time. I'm trying to copy my cursor coordinates when I click on a certain part of the front panel (an imported image to be exact) to an Excel file or even just 2D matrix.  Currently I only have the mouse coordinates figured out but can't seem to find the answer to how to save coordinates on click and copy them somewhere.

Thank you for your help.

Hi! 

Couple of thoughts:

are you trying to save coordinates constantly or at a specific time? 

Either way, look up saving data to file in examples

you should also consider looking up producer consumer loops especially if you’re trying to build an application.
