How can I override the startup window position?

Can I override a compiled labview 7 app with ini settings, command line options, via a registry edit, or other option?

Thanks,
Mike

It's not commonly known, but when you open a VI, its initial window position is the same as its position when you last saved it. Save the VI in the position where you want it (before building the executable), and that position will be honored when the panel is displayed at executable run-time.

Hello Mike

Besides saving the vi in a position, you also have a property node to determine window position at startup app.
Values can be fix, calculated from monitor specs, etc.
See attached doc.

Hope it helps
