keep subVi at front

[zerotolerance]

Is there a way of KEEPING a SubVI at front until its finished its job. I need this to be true even if the user accidently presses the Main VI (which would be at the back when Sub Vi is running).

Thanks 

Kas

You can use an alt tab to bring the vi back to front of the main vi. You can also use invoke node "bring to front" option.

I don't think I can see the "bring to front" option from an invoke node. I'm wiring VI's reference to the invoke node, but nada.

Hey forget my above post you can do exactly what you want by using a vi reference and using a property node like this

Use this inside the subvi.

You can use the window behaviour by changing it to "modal"

CTRL+I->Windows appearence (from the drop down ring)->hit the "Customize" boolean and select option "Modal" from

Window behaviour "model" did it. I usually run my SubVi's through "VI preference". I tried muks idea and that worked just as well.

Thank you both.
