turning labels off globaly

Is there a way to turn control & indicator labels off globaly on the
back panel, rather than doing each one indivually?

Thank You

I'm not sure I understand.

If you want to hide labels programmaticaly then you can use a property node. Right-click on the control or indicator and select "create>>property node". Then on the diagram right-click on the property node and select "properties>>Label>>Visible".

Read the LabVIEW help to find out more about property nodes and what they are.

If you want to turn all the labels on a front panel on or off at once programmaticaly you can use the VI Server. First get a reference to the front panel of your vi. Then from that you can get an array of references to the controls on the front panel, for each reference in the array turn the Label>>Visible property on or off. See the attached vi for an example.

I hope I understood your problem and that this helps.

I've attached a small VI that lets you enable and disable a control.

Is that what you want?
