Try going to file/VI properties/window size and check the box for scale front panel objects as window resizes.I'm just taking a guess here because I cannot open your Vi since I do not have version 7.1.

Hope this helps

Hello Tushar,

Currently LabVIEW does not support the ability to scale a tab control and its contents without scaling all front panel objects. However, we can work around this by creating our own tab control. Attached is small example of how this is accomplished. It works by combining a tab control with a raised box decoration. It then hides and shows the correct contents depending on the tab currently selected.

Regards,
