loading vi´s (panel) twice or n-times at one time

[dodek]

Hello Gurus,

I have a question on Labwiew, is it possibile to load in a vi dynamically more than one subvi´s of the same type on runtime?
For Example: there is a button on the Main Vi panel, if there is a Click on this button a sub Vi is called, running and displayed on screen. That means if there are three clicks there should be three panels.

Only if possible
Is there a possibliity to create Child Panels (SUBVIS)in the main panel (Caller Vi)

Last question?
is LAbVIEW supporting a Document/View architecture like the mircosoft MFC classes?

Dynamically calling multiple instances of a VI is often referred to as VI cloning...it's described in the following thread:

Child panels is a new feature in LabVIEW 7; the container for the panel of the sub-VIs is found on Control palette -> containers - subPanel

If you are thinking of child windows though that can partially be achieved, read the following thread:

There's multiple threads on that issue, just search for child windows in this discussion group.
