Hi ugur,

what are "pages" to you?

What are "any button"? Frontpanel objects of real hardware buttons?

When you talk about tab pages: you can set the active page by writing into a local variable of the tab control.

Page of what if you aren't using tabs? You can still use the tab folder control, configure it to not show the actual tabs (right click on the tab control, select "Visible Items" unselect "Tabs"), then using an event structure (see the Help:Find Examples on the vi toolbar) and use your buttons to switch between the tab pages.

You still use a tab control, but turn the tabs off (a right click function).

The tab control is an enumerated data type that you can read from and write to on your block diagram to set the tab that is viewed. You, then need to create buttons and code that reads the buttons and writes the correct value to your tab control. The tab control is an enumerated number that you can use any numeric function on like +1 or -1 to page forward or back.

..If u have many number of pages, then find the number of pages using Pages property and array function. Then use it to go forward and backward like +1,-1 like Omar_II mentioned

Place a classic tab-control, make tabs invisible, paint background and borders transparant. 🙂

hello guys again,

firstly thanks for everyone who contributed. ı put an example may be it specify what ı mean. as an assumption whenever ı push the temperature button temperature page will open or whenever push the oil pressure oil pressure page will open and show parameters like inlet pressure outlet pressure etc. and also there will be a button for going back home page or next /back button to go specified pages. shortly my purpose is to control so many pages and every page will have their own front panel

NOTE: I ATTACH AN EASY EXAMPLE TO EXPRESS WHAT I MEAN

see you thanks again

That example VI has nothing to show what you want instead of tabs. Everyone understands the concept of some front panel Booleans. Have you tried using tabs? What is you objection to all of the answers that suggest you use them?
