Ring Colour

[Urs Bögli]

How can I change rhe color of a ring? In fact I somehow changed it once
upon a time, but now it is used in a new project with better coloring :-)))

Any hints?

Just paint it with the painttool

Hum...

The paint tool works on menu and text rings, but there is no way to get a custom colored Dialog rings !..

Hi,

The advance solution may be the use of properties!

Have a look at the example (LV 8.0).

Nice Day

Is this really true?
Maybe I can replace the dialog rings with text rings - what is the
difference??

Thanks

Hi Urs,

Dialog style controls are meant to look just like the controls in native applications in the operating system.  For instance, in the configuration dialogs for Internet Explorer, the buttons, strings, trees, lists, etc., all have a uniform appearance...all of those controls on the Dialog palette in LabVIEW have the exact same appearance.  Furthermore, if you took a VI with a bunch of dialog controls from Windows to Mac, those controls would automatically change appearance to look like the native controls on the Mac.  This contrasts with the standard LabVIEW controls, which look the same on all platforms...but you can customize their appearance however you want.

Hope this helps...

Thanks Darren,

I have changed my rings to text rings, and so I can adapt them to the
style of my application
