Hiding/Remove the frame from an array or cluster control.

Is there a way to use an array or cluster control without a frame around it appearing on the front panel? I've tried using the paintbrush tool to make it transparent and customizing the control so the frame size and position were different from the content area with no luck.
Thanks in advance

Yes!

Use the array and cluster containers from the "Classic" pallette.

Just color them transparent.

You probably missed something : try again with the paint brush, right-click the cluster border and hit the space bar while choosing the color. That way you can apply a different color for the foreground and the background. Things might be easy with oldstyle (2D) "Classic" clusters...

Duplicate Post.  And in what version of LabVIEW do you want it?

 

And why don't you just try the instructions listed above to modify an Array yourself.  You might learn more by doing than by having it done for you.Smiley Wink

 

If you don't know how to use the color tools in LabVIEW, perhaps you should take some tutorials.
