LabVIEW 7.0 resizes controls when compiled

Adrian-

Typically, the front panel should the same when you build it into an exe.  However, in this case it may be different.  You may have to rebuild the reference from my code in order to get it to work.  Unfortunately, I don’t have LabVIEW 7.0 on my machine to test this.  If I were you, try specifying the size with the property node to ensure the size is the same.

I agree with ravenfan the fonts look different.  If you dont use application/dialog/system fonts, but specify a font this will not change when in the exe, otherwise the font is specified by the applications ini file (in same folder as exe with same name as exe bith ini extension).   Also the Levels array appears to be floating in the development environment.  I would highlight the array data and specify a font.

I originally had the default application font.  Change it and it didn't help.  Font was changed correctly, but the control height was again reset. 😞

Ok, found the reference to the array element and was able to resize the control.  Still this is less than ideal as I have to now write additional code to resize these elements which shouldn't have changed size in the fisrt place. 😞
