How do I change the font, font size, and format of a tab label?  Can I replace the text label with a gif image?

Thanks

I tried that, but it changes the font for the entire tabbed pane.  How can I change the font for just the tab label and not everything below it?

Thanks

Double-click on the tab name's text and then change it using the Font menu in the LabVIEW toolbar.

Double clicking on the tab sends me to the block diagram.  Not sure how I change the font like that.

How can I also change the text in the tab label?

Thanks

I didn't say double-click on the tab. I said double-click on the tab selector's text. You need to use the "hand" tool if you have "Lock automatic tool selection" off in your LabVIEW options.
