Display SubVI Front Panel in MainVI

[TheKackler]

I have a sub vi I want to reuse but I want the display of the sub vi displayed inside of the main vi.

How do you display the front panel of a sub vi on the main vi?

Here is an LV7.1 example of using a subpanel. The subpanel control can be found in Controls - Containers. The example prompts you to navigate and choose a vi to run, then displays the running vi on the main vi front panel. Press stop button at any time to exit.

You can go to subvi properties and in windows appearance you can put sohn font panel when load on customize

To display the front panel of a SubVI on the main form use a subpanel control. To find an example of this goto the example finder, Help>>Find Examples... then under the search tab type "subpanel" the 'simple.vi' example should show you how todo this. If you need further help or explaination please dont hesitate to ask!
