Drop the controls someplace off of the tab control. Then, select and move with the keyboard arrow keys. You'll see a black border but this disappears whwn you ru the VI.

Hi srinivasan,

If you want to keep "Save" and "Stop" common, Why do you want to keep them on Tab control? Is your tab control taking entire space on Front panel? If so, you can have SAVE and STOP on other vi, and you can call this vi (MODAL).

Since there is a single button for stop and a single button for save, I don't understand your question. You did follow my instructions for making the buttons common to all pages, didn't you?

 

The other question was asking why you had to place the controls on the tabs in the first place. Why not right below?
