How to change the out looking of Framed Color Box?

Hi everyone!

I posted a question about "how to dim a Boolean LED" before.
Some friendly people shared some excellent solutions with me!
I have to thank all of them!

In the one of the solutions, there is one thing I cannot understand.
The indicator is Boolean LED looking, but the property shows its name as "Framed Color Box".
Why do a color box look like a LED?
Is there any method to change the outlooking of VIs?

Especially thanks to Altenbach.

The LV User Manual has a chapter about controls, which includes how to customize them. You basically do this by right clicking the control and selecting Advanced>>Customize. In this case, I believe Altenbach customized the color box by replacing the square images (color and frame) with a round image (taken from a LED by customizing it). This should take several steps because you can't customize two controls at the same time.

Hi,

Were you able to customize the framed color box? If so, I'd appreciate if you could post the method you took to customize the square framed box with a round LED.

thanks
