Diff. Screen for different cases

[MSD100]

Thanks to all for your quite helpful replies..............I will try this and post the experience.....however is there tutorial on "tab control" ??

[Dennis_Knutson]

It's one of the basic LabVIEW controls. Read the help, look through the examples (Help>Find Examples) and take the on-line tutorials.

To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try looking at some of these tutorials.

You should check the following VI (which is not mine but I do not remember on which thread I found it... sry for the author). The active Tab will change color.

THat can be achieved using four tab controls with a single page each and the tab hidden. Simple use the disable property to enable or disable each.

You can also load the VI your are calling in a subpanel. Make the VI front panel the same size as the subpanel of the main VI.
