Custom user messages with pictures

[New Guy]

Hello,

I am trying to make a "pop up message" (the name could be technically incorrect)  for the user when the test has completed.  All I want is to have a message saying "test is done" and then also have a picture in the message box.  I don't want to create a picture, just use one of my jpegs and paste it into the message box or the like.  Any suggestions?

Thanks for your ideas,

Colin

Hi Colin,

look at attached VI

whenever you press stop on the run.VI, a pop up VI will appear

This pop up.VI contains a simple while loop with a stop button. For the pic, Just select the section of your Jpeg and copy-paste it on the front panel. Now in menu, go to File -> VI Properties  ->window appearance, and select customise option.

Here select 'show front panel when called' and 'close afterwards if originally opened' options. And customise it as u want ur pop up to appear

regards

Dev

Ha, this is great.

Thanks for the good advice.  I think I am going to put a candid pic of a buddy, it should be quite commical.  Just what this place needs, life.

If you want to have lots of fun with pics you can do this. Put a picture control on the front panel and size it how big you want it. This way you can programmatically put it any PIC you want. This way you can change it on the fly. If you want to have fun that is. You could even have some type of login and use the name to pick which picture is put on the screen whether it be funny or serious.
