CHOP Execute not triggering on change

Using 64-bit Build 2017.15960 on Windows 10 64-bit.

Programmatically switching a Select CHOP’s channel name does not trigger a CHOP Execute “value change”. Inserting a CHOPTO DAT and doing the same programmatic change does indeed trigger a “table change” in a DAT Execute.

That is likely expected as the channel ‘name’ is not the ‘value’, which is what the CHOP execute DAT is watching for. Your trick to monitor channel name change once the name is in a DAT table is probably the only way to monitor CHOP channel name change at this point.

Thanks for the reply on this.
The “name” part makes sense to me but even when I change the name AND the value there is no trigger of the CHOP Execute. In that circumstance I would expect there to be an action, wouldn’t you agree?
Not a huge deal obviously. It’s more an note of cleanliness and efficiency.
