Un-hiding controls

Hi, all.

A rather stupid question. If I open a control customization window in
LabView 6
and hide a sub-control, how can I get it back ? If I hide something in the
Front
panel window - I can go to the Diagram and the control is still there and
can be unhided, but what happens in customization mode ?

Many thanks,
Sergey.

Open VI reference to "your_hidden.ctl" file, get panel reference->get
all controls references->wire property "visible" for the all references
array in a for-loop . Open "your_hidden.ctl" again in control editor and
have fun with your unhidden control.

Would your describing "customization mode" mean distribution
kits? If so, any actions on hiding or unhiding of sub-controls
are unavailable in the running distribution kit. The suitable
set for the purpose is only required when you build it on
the development tool.

Thanks in advance,
Tom

If you right-click on a control (say, a wave graph) in the Front Panel and
go to the
"Advanced->Customize" you get a window where you have a limited control edit
ability (move subcontrols, hide them etc.)
