Getting Structur into the Forntpanel by using dorpdown list

[felixfelex]

Hallo, 

i have 21 diffrent LED Channel with Spectral Data graphs plus some more nummeric indicator. My plan was first to creat 21 tabs in a tab control, so each tab can show the data form one channel.

Is there a way to do this with a dropdown list, so i select a channel an it automaticly shows me the Graph and the nummeric data. Would be also nice if i only have to creat one nummeric indicator for all Channels.

For exemple: Each channel has a MeanWavelenght, so i dont want to creat a 21 MeanWavelenght indicator, just one. This one Indicator should show the value of the selectet Channel.

Thanks for you help

Regards,

Felix

I would guess that it is definitely possible. Post some examples of what your graphs and data look like at the moment (As a VI not a picture) and you will probably get some sensible suggestions.

You can proceed with the tab idea.  In the tab's right-click menu, select "Visible".  You will see that you can make the tabs not visible, and you can instead use a selector - Page Labels Display - to select the tabs.

Is that a good compromise?

Edit:

Oops, I only answered the first question.
