Drag drop Sub Panel VI

[PPLLC]

Has anyone done a drag from a tree control and dropped the data into another control on the front panel of a VI running within a Sub Panel container? I believe I will have to use a queue to actually communicate the data from the parent vi to the vi in the sub panel, but let me know if I am barking up the wrong tree.

I dont quite get what you're referring to, while editing, or in a running vi? Or transfer data to a subpaneled vi?

Hi,

I understand you want to drop an item of the tree into a subpanel.

One simple way I would suggest is to have a string control of the same size as the subpanel and place it above the subpanel.

When you start dragging from the tree turn the visibility of the subpanel off so that the string control will capture the dropping event.

Then turn the visibility on of the subpanel and do your tasks.

I am working to find a better efficient way to do the drag and drop into a subpanel. I will let you know soon.

Regards,
