Hello, I want to make the message pop in the attached IV modal. currently, if my temperature input is outside 20-25 degrees C, I generate a message that hides behind the test stand and it appears the Application is stuck. I want to bring the message pop up to the front automatically and make it modal so the user can not click anywhere else.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Regard,
Rav

Run from within LabVIEW, the popup is modal, so this is probably a problem related to TestStand. You might want to ask the moderator to move your post there.

In all fairness, it seems like LabVIEW likes to do this kind of thing more often than other applications; that is, it opens up modal windows behind other windows, to the point where, if it opens up behind itself, you can't even alt+tab to get to it.

Shouldn't be too hard. Just grab the reference to the application instance that your GUI is running in an involk the is frontmost method.
@Bill, every application likes to stay behind other apps that are running in front of it. The LabVIEW proxy server is not defaulted to run in front of the TestStand application instance.

Thank You JpB,
Can you please provide a bit more details? Or if you can make a change to the posted VI, that would be extremely helpful.
Thanks in advance.
