Front Panel Open

[Soundarya]

Hi,

I have 2 buttons in my VI. So whenever I click first button another VI should open. And whenever I click second button, one more VI should open. The opened VI should get hidden.

How can i do this in labview.

Thanks in Advance

Regards

Soundarya

Hi Soundarya,

you can use the VI-Server functions to open and close the vi's.

See the attached example. (All vi's are created in LabVIEW 8.5)

Or go to VI Properties>Window Appearance and select Dialog. Call the VI normally and the front window will show.

Why...?!

Then, what is the very purpose of opening it in the first place?

It is meaningful if you say that, when you open your 2nd VI, your 1st VI should get hidden.

I m not sure whaat you are trying to do...

Can you explain your architecture a bit more?
