LabVIEW exe : per window taskbar preview

[ThomasV]

Hi,

This is a long shot, and I know that it isn't supported, but I was wondering if there is a solution for this problem :

I have a (main) application (full screen) that allows the user to open up a wizard (windowed). The wizard is called asynchronuous and

multiple instances of this wizard can be opened.

It would be nice that the user can look in the Windows taskbar, and have taskbar buttons or previews for each wizard that is open.

So that they can switch easily from one window to another. (Excel-style)

How do you guys manage this?

It depends on the window attributes which windows will be shown in the taskbar. And while you can't (easily) change these attributes, they depend on what type of window you show. Dialogs are different than top level windows, and they are again different to floating windows. These attributes als determine if a window is shown with a border or not. LabVIEW uses a certain set of attributes for the different types of windows and that influences how Windows will show them in the taskbar if at all.
