Values
| VAL_INDICATOR | The control can be changed programmatically, but operator action cannot generate commit or value changed events. Some controls are always indicators. |
| VAL_HOT | The control can be operated by the user or changed programmatically. User action can generate commit or value changed events. For example, if the user moves a binary switch from off to on, a value changed event and a commit event are generated. |
| VAL_NORMAL | The control can be operated by the user or changed programmatically. User action can generate value changed events but not commit events. |
| VAL_VALIDATE | Similar to a VAL_HOT, except that before a commit event is generated, LabWindows/CVI validates all numeric controls on the panel that have the range-checking attribute set to Notify. Invalid conditions cause a notification box to appear. No commit event is generated until the user enters valid values. Note: This value is not valid for graph controls. |
