Error when setting Tab Caption programmatically

[dliechti]

In a Tab Control I want to set the Property 'TabCaption' of a single page programmatically. When doing that I get the error 1077 (Invalid property value). On the other hand I can read the property out correctly.

The really strange thing is, that with one Tab Control I get the error and with another one I don't get it. The one which works was originally created with LabVIEW 8.0. The one which fails was created with 8.20. I attached a VI with the two cases.

Thanks for any help!

Dave,

the issue is created because the tabs are initally configured to "Make Page Caption Match Label". You can "unset" this option by rightclicking on the register on the frontpanel, select Advanced and remove the mark in the appropriate line....


hope this helps,

Hi Norbert,

I've tried this at my end still I am getting this error.

I've attached the code.

Warm Regards,

Please convert your VI to LabVIEW 2021 or an earlier version. Otherwise, I cannot help you with debugging.

In the meantime: The attached VI show how it works.

The "Make Page Caption Match Label" applies to individual pages.  In your code, the 1st page has that property set to FALSE, and the 2nd page has it set to TRUE.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your VI!

Adding the disconnect property worked.

Thank Paul,

I tried individually modifying the pages through property node with independent label property and it worked. I'll try your method as well.
