How I can see a hidden control in a cluster?

Dear Sir or Madam,

I have a hidden control in a cluster, but I want to see this control to
move it out from the cluster.

I can not find someting like "visible item" or "shows control" for
particular control. Seems like I can only work now with the cluster.

Thanks in advance,

LD

See attached sample diagram picture
Use Property/attribute and get the reference to the all controls in a cluster. In a loop set Visible to TRUE.

The first thing you do is create a property node for the cluster control/indicator. Next, select the property called 'Controls[]'. Now you have to know the number of the control in the cluster to index the array of control refnums. If you do not know this you'll have to try different numbers until you find it. Index the array of control refnums with an index array function. Feed the output of the index array to a propery node and then select the property called visible and write a true to it. You may have to change the property to write by right-clicking on it and selecting change to write. This worked on my computer using LabVIEW 6. Hope this helps you.

Additionally and even easier.

In LabVIEW 6 there is an Advanced feature called "show hidden element". Simply right click on the Cluster>>Advanced>>Show Hidden Element select your element and Presto!!
