How can I insert page breaks into front panel when printing?

When printing the front panel I would like to insert page breaks. Often my graphs are cut off when printed. Inserting page breaks would also be useful when printing to HTML.

You can't, as far as I know.

The ideal is to use an application designed for this purpose. If you must do
it natively in Labview, try making sub-VIs that each represent a whole
printed page or HTML object, and when necessary call them with the
appropriate data and print them.

So instead of having a front panel with three graphs, one of which ends up
in two pieces, you end up with three front panels each with one graph.

When you choose 'Print...' from File menu, and you select the Custom option on the 2nd dialogue screen, you can get to an option (after a few 'Next's) that allows you to use page breaks between sections. You can also choose to print Fit Front Panel on 1 page.
Good Luck with it, Doug
