Description

This example shows how to hide a tab control on a front panel by setting its colours to transparent. This gives a slightly cleaner appearance to the front panel. The user can then choose between tabs by using a menu bar comprising of a row of buttons.

 

 

The tab control is hidden when the VI starts to execute, but is then made visible again when the VI is aborted (by pressing the Quit button).

 

 

The button colours are changed to indicate which tab is selected. If a tab needs to be hidden/disabled during execution then the individual buttons should be disabled.
