Disable GUI Controls & Menu?

[godofcode]

I'm working on a control application.  When the application enters a particular mode I want it to lock out the GUI controls but still display status on the GUI.  I know how to do this with .NET applications but am at a loss with a Labwindows appliction.

Does anybody know how I can grey out the GUI controls including selected drop down menu options?

Thanks!

Have a look at SetCtrlAttribute(...ATTR_DIMMED...) and SetMenuBarAttribute(...ATTR_DIMMED...)

int SetCtrlAttribute (int panelHandle, int controlID, int controlAttribute, ...);

for example.....

SetCtrlAttribute( mainPanel, Main_PANEL_Zoom_In_Button_R, ATTR_DIMMED, TRUE);

jr beat me to it
