Morning Jeff,

 

Ill give that bottom part of your code a go later on and see what happens.

 

I set up new panes as you showed and was playing around and found that you could change the background to a design so I chose checkerplate. I then chose clouds for another. However when I removed all the panes, the background stayed as checkerplate.

 

Questions; how do I get the background to change with the vi code again without adding panes to edit the pane properties, how do I add another vi into a pane, is it possible to individually colour each pane?

 

Got a question on tab control as well. I had some code on the front panel of a vi and decided that I wanted to add it into a tab control. To do this I added the tab control function around the code and sent it to the back assuming that it would either a) add the code to each tab but duplicate it much like the case structure does when duplicating cases or b) add it to the current tab selected when it was sent to the back.

 

What I found was that the code was present of all tabs, not duplicated but the graphics were all messed up. To sort this it appears you have to select all the code you want in the tab, move it out of the tab structure then back in on the tab number you want. The duplication code that was present initially then disappears.

 

Is this how the tab control should function or is there a way to force the tab to act a certain way upon placing in on the vi?

 

Cheers

 

Mitch
