Multiple Instances, Single Indicator

Hi All:

I have a Tab control with about 10 pages. Each page needs to display a value, essentially the same value. For now, I am making multiple copies of the indicator and passing the same value. I tried to use property notes and modify the tab control page, but that's not possible. Is there a way I can have multiple instances of the same indicator on the front panel with just one indicator on the block diagram ?

Thanks

Kudos are the best way to say thanks 🙂

Hi, create you Indicator out of Tab Control, select it, press SHIFT and move Indicator by arrows!!! to Tab Control (SHIFT all time must be pressed). You must see you indicator with black shadow on Tab.

What Nadav is saying is that this way the indicator won't be in any page of the tab but in fact hovering over it. You can also do what he's suggesting but just leave the indicator out of the tab area.

Thanks for your replies guys. I've tried this before. What I am trying to do is copy all the pages of tab control to .jpg format so I can view the contents of the tab control at a later time. Looks like there is no way other than placing 10 indicators seperately on each page...
