Image Acquisition

[Tek]

Is there a method that allows a VI to get and display a file, specifically a jpeg image, on the front panel?

You can use Picture Control to display an image (bmp, jpg, and png).

Use Read Jpeg File.vi to load the file, and then use Draw Flattened Pixmap.vi

to display the image in Picture Control.

I am very new to LabVIEW so what you wrote makes sense, but I am having trouble implementing it.  I placed the two VIs on my VI, and when I run it, I get a dialog box to select the image I want, but when I select it, I get an error at read JPEG File.vi.  What could I be doing wrong?  Thank you for your time.
