How do I make all items visible NOT programmatically?

[JasonWB]

Hi all,

I have an application where I have multiple controls overlayed on one another and I have to turn only one of them on at a time (basically, different enumerations based on a different selection). The question is this: How can I force LabView to display ALL front-panel controls, regardless of the "Visible" property state?

The reason I ask this is because I updated one of the controls and it changed width on me. Then, it didn't match the rest but by that time it was too late - I had made all of them not visiblea and really don't want to have to modify the program just to align front-panel numeric controls.

Thanks,

Jason

There is no way to change the visible property of multiple controls manually. You have to select them individually on the block diagram and then select Show Control.

Attached is a chunk of a utility VI that I have used for some of these sorts of things. It runs separately and will show ALL hidden controls or hide ones that you have selected.
