sub vi in main vi front panel

[vonzepp]

Hi

I have a sub vi and I want the front panel of that sub vi to be visible in the front panel of the main VI instead of opening in a seperate window.

Try using a subpanel...

Thanks for that is there any way I can send data from the main VI to the subvi using subpanels?

Hi vonzepp,

to transfer data between parallel vi´s you can use queues or notifier.

You can directly call the subVI in your code. I use that to display data from deep in the hierachy by having subVis that accept the unformatted data at the specific point and having code to make it look nice. The FP is set so that only the indicators (graphs, tables) are visible (just size the window as appropriate).
