How to run VI directly from GUI?

[Waley]

Hi. Is there a way to add a button to the GUI that runs the program instead of clicking on the run white arrow on the toolbar?

No. If the VI isn't rnning there's no way LV can read the front panel--or perform any actions on the swithch condition.

You can however create a screen that starts executing as soon as it loads into memory and contains buttons for opening and running other VIs.
