Issue Details

When a VI is running, the user cannot scroll on an array indicator with the mouse wheel. If you have already scrolled down by clicking and dragging, using the mouse wheel will reset the array to the first position. This behavior does not occur on array controls. 

Solution

This is a bug with the scrolling system and is present as of LabVIEW 2021 SP1. A workaround for this issue is to use an array of controls and set it to a disabled state and update the controls via property node or a different method. The bug has been submitted with ID 680417.
