VI in multiple monitors

[momenslythe]

I'm looking to have my VI show on multiple monitors (3 if possible). In the past I've just changed the window size to stretch across all three but that has been kind of awkward. Is there a way I can have the front panel open in 3 windows that show different aspects of the front panel? That way I can place each window in a different monitor.

I don't know your level of expertise with LabVIEW or Computer Science. 

The concept you are looking for is called a GUI Controller.  This is where you pass references to GUI controlls to a sub-vi that sub-vi is then responsible for updating the user interface(s).  Do a search on these forums for GUI Controller.  Then post back.  You CAN do this with LabVIEW but it does involve understanding some CS concepts.

I did a little more searching and found these posts:

I think the simplest method will be this though:

I'll essentially just make a sub vi with graphs or stimulus or whatever that load when I run the VI and I can feed data into it from the main vi. Is that essentially a GUI controller?

What CS concepts do I need to know? I've been using LabVIEW for a couple years.
