Hi everybody, I'm working with a Vision VI and the trouble is that I need to create a cluster to connect it to a terminal called Settings of the Vision VI (IMAQ Count objects). These settings includes booleans, long and unsigned word type values. I've seen this one in a pdf document:
I like how it looks because it's in a reduced space.
This is the one I've created:
(Please ignore the red numbers 1 and 2)
And the block diagram looks like this:
If someone knows how make a VI as the first image, please post it.
Thank you so much for your answers and comments.
P.S. I use LabView 2009, maybe some features are not availables in newers versions.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Right-Click the terminal want the control for and select Create Control. That feature isn't going away in any version of LV.

As Darin is saying, if you place your wiring tool on the control of the sub-vi that you want to connect to, and then right click, it will give you the opportunity to make a control that matches the sub-vi's input. If you want to make a cluster front panel control that more closely resembles that in your picture (it may be created by the above action so try that first) drop an empty cluster control on the front panel. Then look under the "classic" controls pallette for ones that look more like those in the picture. Yours are from the "modern" pallette.

Look under system controls for the system checkbox or the system radio button and replace your existing boolean buttons with that type of control.

You did not create a cluster, just some individual controls that you are bundling in the code. that's not the same!
I would recommend a combination approach from what we heard so far.
