SubPanels

[Eugen_Graf]

Hello dear LabVIEW Users, would you please check this VI. On my PC it works how I want, but not an other one. Start the VI "SubPanels.vi" and try to create some new controls. Than change values of this controls. A dialog about new value should appear.

Thanks, Eugen

Hi Eugen,

i can create the sub panels and change the value, but there is no information about changing the value. I´m using LV8.5 on WinXP.

Thank you, I use lv8.0 , probably anything is changed on higher versions of LV. Can anybody say why it doesn't work?

Can anybody try it on lv8.0?

Thank you Mike

Hi Eugen,

i think you have to wait in your sub vi´s for a valid reference of the MainUE. i think there are time differences. if you check for a valid referece in a while loop, then i think it will work. i try it in my copy.

Another point is that you close the reference of the created vi directly after open it. Why??

Mike, I don't think it's a timing problem bekause I start the SubVI after setting value. I close the SubVI reference after starting them, because I don't need it. Is it wrong? Look the LV example (LV's example finder) "subpanels" . There the SubVI reference will be closed too.

Hi Eugen,

i have changed somthing in the booelan vi and in the main vi. Hope it helps. I have saved it for 8.0. Now it works on my pc.

Thank you Mike, how many iterations do you see in the boolean subpanel? I see 0.

[MikeS81]

Hi

yes you are right. i see 0, too. but that was the first point i have changed.

Mike

[Eugen_Graf]

If you see 0 too, than it is not the timing problem of setting value. Do it work with string and numeric subVI too?

Hi Eugen,

now all three vi´s show the change value message. but i remove the close vi refnum function in the main vi.
