button to enable all checkboxes on front panel

[jh@sensis]

I have checkbox controls on the front panel to select various functions of my VI.  I would like to have buttons to check ("enable all") and un-check ("disable all") all the checkboxes at once, if desired.  Preferably, I'd like to see the boxes activate (show the checkmark) prior to starting the VI -- like they do when you select them one by one.  I am fairly new to LabView & am using 7.0 Pro.  Any help would be appreciated.

See if this does it for you.  I jsut used property nodes to select and deselect all.  You could also use references and I am sure others have other ways to do this too.

Thank you!  I played w/ the property nodes, but didn't use case structures.  These seemed to solve the issues I was having.  Thanks again!

I would recommend to use local variables here, they are much more efficient than value property nodes.

I could not view your example, as I have LabView 7.0.  But thank you for the suggestion.

Here's a picture of the code. Pretty simple. 🙂
