Good looking front panels

[Diarmid Milligan]

Looking for ideas on how to make a MMI front panel more exciting to look at
and have more featured functionality. If anyone could share with me some
good examples they dont mind me looking at or if i could be pointed to somewhere
that has examples it would be most appreciated.

Thanks

I'm not sure how much help this will be, but for several years now, I've
been giving talks at NIWeek about HMI/MMI panel construction. I'll be
giving another this year. I'd also be willing to give you some additional
ideas if I knew more about what you are trying to construct.

In general, a graphic imported and placed behind the controls and indicators
can make the panel much more interesting to look at. You can often place
transparent or mostly transparent controls over the gra
phic to animate
the graphic and allow for user interaction.

Here is a good looking front panel I made with "G Toolbox".

G Toolbox is dedicated to make your VIs looking cool !

For better looking: donut shape window, bitmap shape window, status bar,

tooltips, animated cursor, etc...
For more feature: runtime DragDrop support, add icon to System Tray, etc...
much more, totally ~140 VIs.

Have fun !
