How to get out of a Stacked sequence beside letting it running till its last sequence?

[Jieyi]

Hi all,

May I know how can I exit from a stack sequence without it reaching the last sequence.  ie.  at any point of time, by clicking a button, it will exit the whole sequence.

Thanks

NO, YOU CAN'T.

But there there are so many other ways wherein you can control the execution of the code inside the various frames of the Stacked Sequence ( for that matter Flat Sequence too... ).

Probably you can use a state machine for your task instead of a sequence. Search the forum for state machine or check this article if you're not familiar with them.

A easy way to brake out of your code, might be to make a custom 'abort' error code. Whenever you want to skip the execution, trigger that error code.  That way, the normale error lines will take care of checking wether to continue exectuting code, or wether to skip. 

The only thing you have to do, is to put some extra VI's into the line of execution, that fire the abort error when the button was pressed.  That's more elegant, than having tons of case structures in the code...
