sblades Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 A mouse over hover effect has become standard in most major software UIs. This effect allows users to interact with controls in a more intuitive way and gives users confidence that they are making the selection that they intend. However there is a long standing NI bug that renders the hover effect inconsistent (see the discussion here: https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Button-Boolean-mouse-hover-not-working-on-64-Bit-LabVIEW/m-p/3944252#M1121887) Until NI makes a fix one 'solution' that I will employ is to disable the hover effect with the controls that I am using so that users do not get confused by a control stuck in a hover state. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kring Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thanks for posting this. We've also experience this issue and I think the solution is to just disable hover on your buttons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kring Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 Note hover can be disabled programmatically, by writing to the last two elements of the "Colors[4]" property (note that if a button has hover colors, there will be actually 6 elements of this array) 1 - FALSE 2 - TRUE 3 - Mouse Down when FALSE 4 - Mouse Down when TRUE 5 - Hovering when FALSE 6 - Hovering when TRUE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
