Does anyone know if this exist and is available for download?

martin pelletier;

LabVIEW includes a font file called ni7seg.ttf, which resemble 7-segment indicators. Make sure it is installed. If not, you may need to search your hard disk (probably under the LabVIEW directory).

Once you installed the font, use the font dialog to change the font of your control/indicator.

Thank you Enrique, you're terrific !

The font file was located in "C:\WINDOWS\system32\cvirte\fonts" (With WinXP). It's just sad that the similarity between this font and a real 7-segment display is not really good.

Well, not sure what you expect. I find that font reasonably well.
But you could always create your own font using some freeware or shareware font editor. As long as you only need numerics you can get away with 11 to 13 font characters (0-9,.)

Eh... thanks!

I learn that trick from the fellow wireworker Mr. Jean-Pierre Drolet, who always amaze everybody with his knowledge on LabVIEW. So, I guess he is ultimately the person to thanks!
