How to bind a numberkey to certain front panel button?

[JLuna]

Hi,

I know how to bind certain actions like move left, up, down, move right to buttons. But what if I want to

bind numeric key "1" to a button... is it possible?

Thanks all, in advance!

Hi JLuna,

use the event structure to detect keypress events.

In the event case check for the key "1" to trigger your "button" event…

Do you have an example I could follow?? Because I currently use the "Key Binding Property" but only certain

keys can be used; F1, F2, Return, arrow up, down, left, right among others. But numeric keys are not included in these properties...

Thanks!!

Hi JLuna,

use the event structure to capture key press events:

German LabVIEW: "Taste gedrückt" = key pressed, "Zeichen" = char, "VTaste" = VKey

Many thanks for the example! I also found out this example;

But yours seems to be a bit easier 🙂
