appearance of array, remove gap between cells

[ilotest]

Hello All,

I'm not a newbie with labVIEW but I'm trying to improve the GUI of my program.
I would like to customize a array indicator. I already customized some controls. For the array, at first it seems easy, but I would like to minimize (remove) the gap between each cells and I come up against to this problem ....
I found some examples (e.g chess.llb) where it's describe how we can customize a control but not for array indicator.

I inserted picture of what I can, and what I would like to do.

Is it possible to do that ?

Olivier

PS: In the array, I have a pict ring control.

       I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1

Use objects from the classic palette.

Use Control editor to reduce the size of the object frame :: it is smaller than the object.

Hello Ben,

Thanks for your reply.

If I good understood your remark, I already tryed it.

Unfortunally, I can't reduce the gap between the cell. If you increase or decrease the object size in the array, the cell size follows the object frame it's dynamic....

It seems we can't have an influence on the cell decoration.

If it's just an aesthetics issue, you could paint the borders white -- see attached.

For the long term (maybe), have you seen This Idea??  If we could set the element gap to 0, then there'd be no gap.

Hello Broken Arrow,

Your are right, it's just a aesthetic issue, and I can't just put the background in white.

Your link is very promising ! But what is the LabVIEW version ? Because I haven't this parameters in LV 8.5.1 or LV8.6 ...

LOL, Ben - you're doing everything right... except for the spelling in your sig.  😄
