Is there any way to highlight a row of elements in an 2D array using property node?

Solved!

Hi Application Engineers,

 

I am wondering if there is a way to highlight a row of elements in a 2D array using array's property node?

 

It can be easily done in an excel sheet, I would like to programmatically do it in LabVIEW.

No, all elements of an array must have the same properties. You can use tables/listboxes to do it though.

 

Also here are a few workarounds: https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-to-change-an-array-element-color/td-p/1945893

Use a TABLE instead of an Array on your font panel 

 

Then use the Selection Color, Size, and Start properties to highlight the cells
