subpanel: position of displayed VI

[BigBadWolf]

Hi

Does anybody know how to set the position of the elements you display in a subpanel?

Thanks

Open the vi which you are calling in the sub panel. Arrange the position of controls and indicators on the front panel.

That doesn't work.

I arranged the switch and the LED in the upper left corner of VI i'm calling, but in the subpanel it is displayed somewhere else.

I cannot see the picture that you have inserted. Can you attach the image? Also use Jpeg or png formats

Try using the scroll bar of the vi to arrange the position.

Doesnt that help?

Also make sure that your visible front panel size of the vi is exactly same as the sub panel that you have placed

How do i make sure that the visible front panel size of the vi is exactly the same as the sub panel that i have placed

Right click on your subpanel and select create->property node->bounds->all

drop that on your block diagram and wire create an indicator.  that will give you the height and width of your subpanel after a quick run.

then, in your SubVI, go to file->VI Properties->Window Size and put the height and width in, then click and drag from the bottom corner of your subvi to make it as small as possible.  this "small as possible" size will be the same as your subpanel, and presto! everything fits.

And after you finish as what Jeff replied, arrange the controls and indicators accordingly.
