[malkowki]

Dear,

I would like to make more user friendly my Labview GUI using few horizontal single pole , dual throw switch as in the picture.

I couldn't find any example from the discussion forum, only for vertical ones.

Any idea is welcome, thanks in advance for help.

Hi malkowki,

customize a button to show both switch positions…

(There is an chapter in  the LabVIEW help on customizing controls.)

I would suggest using Powerpoint to make the images if you don't already have them. 

I've attached a quick example.  When you customize the control within LabVIEW, be sure you are in edit mode and right click the button image.  Use the Picture Item menu to select different states of the button.  From there you can import the images of the different states of your switch.
