Some problems about app builder

[yjiang]

1. How can I prevent the auto-running after I open the builded program?
2. How can I ask a 'Dialog Tab Control' to set at a specify site in the builded program? And how to remove the scrolling bars?
Thank you very much!

1. Under Tools->Build Application select the vi settings tab. Edit the Build. Change Run When Open to 'No'.
2. I'm not sure what you're asking about the Tab Control. Could you clarify? Removing Scroll Bars is the same as in a regular vi. In the pre-built vi, right click the vi icon, select vi properties-> windows appearance-> customize-> deselect Show Scroll Bars.

If you always want the tab control to default to a specific page, select the page, right click on the control on the tabs->Data Ops->Make Current Value Default. You can also create a local variable and create a constant to select a page (On block diagram, right click terminal->Create Local V.). If you want to select where the control will appear on the front panel, use the Property Nodes for Positioning (right click the terminal->Create Property Node->Select Position Property).

Thanks! I unchecked the 'Show Scroll Bars' but the scroll bars are still there. And other setting changings which customized are not work either. What should be done then?

Scroll bars are visible until you enter the run mode. I don't think there's any way to remove them in the edit/non-run mode. Which other customized settings failed? You can change many of these also in the App Builder under the above mentioned Edit Build menu (scroll bars, windows ops, etc.).

Thanks. But where is the 'Edit Build' menu is? I just need to hide the scroll bars when the program is builded.

Under Tools->Build Application select the vi settings tab. Select the main/top level vi. Select Edit the Build in the lower right hand corner. Deselect Show Scroll Bars. Build the application.

Again, the scroll bars will appear until the program enters the run mode, which is true for normal vis and built executables.
