Error when setting TabCaption 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,
