how to use subpanels

[lfoitek]

hello, i am trying  to use a subpanel in a vi.  the only thing is that i don't need the entire vi in a subpanel, just a particular part.  i attached a vi that has a boolean array of buttons that i would like in a subpanel but leave the string indicators out of the subpanel.  does anyone know how to do this.  thank you

You could make the strings not visible by using the Visible? property node.

Otherwise you could move the front panel on the vi so that the boolean array is the only visible indicator (you have to scroll down to see the strings) and then save the vi.  This should only make the boolean array visible when you call it in the subpanel, but the user can still scroll down to the strings with the scollbars on the subpanel.  So if you do not want the user to see the strings at all, it is better to use the visible property node.
