Is there a way to put the front panel of one VI embedded in the front panel of another, especially a tab object?

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a stack of sub-vi's each of which reports similar content.  I want to be able to view and control the sub-vi through the main/calling VI.  Is there a way to cleanly wrap that into the tabs the main vi?  If I change the sub-vi will it proliferate to the main vi?  How do I make that work?

You can use a sub panel object to embed the front panel from another VI into your vi. 

 

Theres a quick example to get you started.

I am currently wanting to interface with the front panel of one or more of my subVIs in my program. When I call them, each subVI shows up as a new window on my computer screen. Is there a way that I can have each subVI be part of my Main VI Front Panel so I do not have as many windows on my screen?: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/D587067E18E0E70186256D44007B91FE

 

Edit:Didn't get above posts when i checked 😞
