Problem scrolling using property nodes

What Im trying to do is a "fake scroll bar" using numeric controls and the VI Property FP Origin for the same vi where the numeric controls are. The problem is that when the vi is running and I use the scroll bar the controls also move and is a mess. I need to have it in a fixed (like floating) position within the window, how can I do that?

FP Origin moves the entire front panel (and all controls and indicators on it) within the window without changing the size or position of the window.

FP Panel bounds can move the window and change its size.

Please specify what you want moved (and not moved) with respect to the screen boundaries and perhaps someone can help.

Hi,

What I want to move is the entire front panel but one control (the fake scroll bar which is a numeric control) that is on it. What I really need is to have ONLY a vertical scroll bar... the way to do it doesn't really matter,

Thanks

How about using a property node to move the control as you scroll so it
appears to remain fixed on a moving front panel?
