Need to Print Screen the Front Panel

[diishen]

Hey guys, as the subject says, I need to capture the front panel of the Vi every time it runs (without using alt-printscreen or any other applications). Can I do this using LabVIEW 8? Thanks!

There is a tool available on the forum that will be useful to document your vi.  It should work for the Front Panel.

Let me look for the link.

Here is the link to the Code Capture Tool: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=304756

Within the link, there is a demo and discussion on how to use it.

The code is also available for download.

Thanks for the fast response!
That tool looks very useful but I cannot download or install anything on this computer (lab computer, not mine so no permission and I have to use this computer) so I have to use what's available in LabVIEW 8. Do you have an alternative solution?

Have a look at this thread which provides a small coding example.

The example shows how to save the front panel as a jpeg image.
