how to disable(inverse) icon of ui , coding a ui for production / engineering mode

[stockton]

Excuse me

I coding a sample UI on LabView8.2

full function be enable at ui , and engineer can adjust program factors through ui

now , i want to categorize production/engineering mode for the ui

engineer mode - enable full function for engineer adjust

production mode - only enable a little function for operator adjust

I don't hope to coding 2ea program , I hope use sample process to achieve it

so ....

I want to builld a ui for production mode

Have Labview disable(inverse) technic??, let icon convert "gray" --->disable the function

user can see the icon on ui , but they can't adjust the function factors

thanks

I'm sure there is a question you want to ask but not sure what it exactly is.

To disable a front panel control, right click on the terminal and select Create>Property Node>Disabled. Right clcik on the property node and select 'Change to Write'. Wire the constant you want to the input. The context help explains the values and what each does.

" 2ea program"

"disable(inverse) technic??" , let icon convert "gray" --->disable the function

I don't know what some of the terminology is that you are using.  Or what you mean by disabling icons or functions.

I am going to guess that you actually want to be able to disable and grey out controls on the front panel.  You can write to a property node for each of your front panel controls called "disabled".  You can enable, disable, and disable/grey.
