Has Anybody developed a means to controll the scroll position of a front panel in LabView 6.02

I'm trying to View a VI front Panel remotely, but the panel is to big to fit on the screen, so I need to be able to scroll up and down from my remote location.
I am using LabView 6.02

There's no way to scroll the screen. You could however, use property nodes to move all the front panel object around in some sort of coordinated way--in theory at least. Personally though, I'd hate to have to write the code to do it.

In the past when I have had to do this sort of thing, I have used things like VNC (very good) or NetMeeting (horrible) to actually see the remote desktop. Both packages provide scrollbars for moving a small window around a larger screen.

You could also use some sort of networking to pul the data across the network and then create a screen on your local machine to display it.

Hope this helps...

I was just playing around one day a wrote a horizontal scroll VI. I am not sure if this is what you wanted but I thought I might as well submit it.
