So this may be a silly LabNOOB question I have, but...
Every time I right click and select "create a control/indicator" I get something that looks like the one on the left, big and boxy.
But every single control/indicator I see on these labview forums look like the 2 on the right.
I have some .vis that people have helped me troubleshoot and they have put those controls/indicators in, so I can go into that .vi and copy/paste them into other programs but that is a pain in the tuchas.
Where are these buttons? I cannot find them.
Also, can I make it so that right clicking and selecting "create a control/indicator" will default to the style on the right instead of on the left?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I am running labview 8.5 by the way, in case that matters.

Right-click the terminal and unselect "show as icon".
There is also a configuration option that determines what kind of icons you get when creating controls or indicators.

There are also a few ideas in the Idea Exchange related to view as icon:
