Frontpanel element design

[Slev1n]

Hey guys,

I use LabVIEW 2017 and I wanted to pimp up my frontpanel. I dont want to use the "silver", "classic" or "system" designs. I mainly use vertical slider elements and a few other standard input elements for numbers.

I remember once, that I downloaded some fancy element layouts from VIPM. But I cant remember the name and "google" was not my friend so far.

Does someone of you know some "libraries", or whatever the design packages are called, I could try?

Thank you guys.

i am still on LV2016 but ones in my VIPM:

• JKI Flat UI Controls
• OpenG Buttons Library
• UI Control Suite: Metallic Theme
• UI Control Suite: NI Themed Custom Control Suite
• UI Control Suite: System Controls 2.0

another option is to build you own for example with XControls but that is involved.

Thank you guys so far, I am going to check them, but I think the "Flat UI Controls" was what I was using previously.

Thanks

The problem I come across quite often is that the control sets are incomplete.

So you'll be designing a nice consistent UI and then have to revert to another set for a particular control.
