Before you use this property to set text focus on a control, set key focus of the control.

Elements:
Name Description
Row The row of the current text entry. Possible values are 0…n, where n is the total number of rows - 1.

6338018 MultilineInput If TRUE, you can enter multiple lines of text in the table cells by pressing the key on the keyboard. If FALSE, pressing the key on the keyboard while editing cells causes LabVIEW to commit the edits in the current cell and the text focus moves to the next cell. This property does not affect run-time behavior of the table.

This property is similar to the Multi-line Input item on the shortcut menu of a table.

R/W X
6338001 NumCols Number of visible columns in the table, including the row headers if visible. The number of columns might change if the vertical scroll bar is visible. This property counts partially visible columns.

If you wire a value of 0 to this property, LabVIEW displays the leftmost column. The table control resizes according to the number of columns you set.

This property is similar to the Columns option on the Appearance page of the Table Properties dialog box.

R/W X
6338002 NumRows Number of visible rows in the table. If the table uses column headers, this number includes one row for the column headers. The number of rows might change if the horizontal scroll bar is visible. This property counts partially visible rows.

If you wire a value of 0 to this property, LabVIEW displays the topmost row. The table resizes according to the number of rows you set.

This property is similar to the Visible Items»Row Headers item on the shortcut menu of a table and the Rows option on the Appearance page of the Table Properties dialog box.

6338019 Val(Sgnl) Sets the value of the control and generates a Value Change event.

This property updates the value of an object similar to the Value property. However, Value (Signaling) also causes LabVIEW to generate an event as if the user had interactively changed the value of the object.
