Linking two LV pages to a common front panel

[sezhendo]

Hi again,

I need to link two separate LabView documents on a common front panel. (i.e. the first panel just shows two different links. When one is selected, it takes you to the front panel of another LV document and if the other is selected it takes you to a second LV document). Any ideas?

By documents, do you mean another VI? If so, you can launch those with a couple of buttons. An event structure would be the best way. The buttons can have any text you want and you can make the button itself transparent so that it looks like hypertext.

Hi sezhendo,

There's a good example of opening VIs programatically here.

hey,

another option can be to use sub panel and call the front panel look of other VIs itself on the main VI having selection.. but certainly it's upto you and your design to see front panel in different windows or calling in same one..
