Possible bug: Local variable writeback ignored if it's too fast

[Underflow]

GerdW,

That's a clever idea, to catch the keypresses and toss them into the indicator that way.

It does have some drawbacks: no backspace, for instance.  That would have to be caught and handled separately.

Thanks,

Joe Z.

The goal is to emulate the interface on programs like hyperterminal.  In the real program, there is a serial comm VI in the upper loop, rather than just feeding back a formatted string.

I'm open to reasonable suggestions for alternative implementations.

You may wish to look at lvterm.

Joe,

Well, I can't say for sure if the Key Focus = False is working just because of an added delay. But, I think not... It wouldn't be the first time I've seen, what seems to me to be, collisions when trying to update values or attributes while Key Focus = True.
