Tab control always on front

[Michael Noll-Hussong]

Dear LabVIEWers,

is there a way to have a tab control always on the front of the screen. In my case a "small" tab control that contains controls for the general program is embedded in a bigger tab control for different functions. As mentioned I want to have the general tab control always be visible on the front ...

Thank you very much for any help,

Michael

The typical solution is to place the object above the tab control rather
than in it. Start with the object outside of the tab, Select it so that
it can be moved with the keyboard, and use arrows and shift arrows to
move it to the right location. Note that it has a shadow beneath it
indicating that it is above rather than in the object it is over.
