Table display looks faded

Solved!
Go to solution

I am using a table on the front panel as an indicator to display lines of periodically averaged data.

 

The table colors are washed out and I cannot change them.  I'm not talking about cells; I mean the border line and scroll bar.

 

There must be some way to get a table to display with decent contrast.

 

Any ideas.

Post your actual VI and not just some partial screenshot that doesn't look like it is even a part of LabVIEW.

 

How did you create this?  Is it possible you changed some of the colors of fonts within the front panel?  Anything you might have done within Windows system settings?

 

Actually, I think you just need to check the properties of the table,  I think it looks like you have it set to be Disabled and Greyed.

It was greyed out.  I had copied it from an earlier VI that had several tab pages with a lot of Visible and Disable propoerty changes going on.  For some reason, I thought front panel controls and indicators would be copied in some kind of default state.  What really threw me off is that it continued to display data.  Thanks for catching that error.  (Another instance where posting the VI would not have helped.)

Actually, this is another case where posting the VI would have helped.  It allows us to poke around it a bit, and could've stumbled across the property page showing it was disabled and greyed out.

either disabled and greyed OR linked to a type def with unapplied changes.
