Navigating to a tab control page from within a tab control from a VI Server call

[ChromaBurst]

Hello there,

As part of a documentation exercise, I'd like to be able to 1) load a VI programmatically 2) determine if tab control is present, if so how many tabs and if it has any embedded tab controls 3) sequence through tabs, snap the front panel (FP) and icon 4) and then repeat until done.

 I 've been using "To More Specific Class" and the property node "Label.ClassID" to try and capture whether a tab control is present in the VI but to no avail. Any suggestion, what am I missing to get to the full list of controls in the VI?

Hi Chroma,

      In case it's useful, here's one way to recursively list the Tabs and "Sub-Tabs" of a VI.

Cheers!
