Labview 8 executables: Random toggling through controls

[HN1111]

Hi,

Using Labview 8 pro I found that you can toggle through the controls with the tab key. However, the sequence of the toggling appears to be random.

Does anybody know how to get that toggling into a certain sequence, i.e. setting the cursor with the mouse on the first control and then by pressing TAB getting the cursor jump to another, specified control?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Andrey,

thanks for the quick reply. I am not cocerned with tab controls.

I just have some numeric controls on the front panel. When I build an executable and run it, I can toggle through these controls by means of the TABkey of the keyboard. The sequence of this toggling procedure appears random to me. I would like to set it to a particular sequence. Any idea?

Thanks a lot

Hi Holger,

just do it like written in post #2. 'Setting tabbing order' does what you asked for and has nothing to do with tab controls.

The tabbing order is not random, it's the order of placing controls on the frontpanel while programming!

Thanks a lot. It works now.
