Hello again!
Does anyone know if it's possible to put a scroll bar on a cluster? I have a very long cluster and would prefer to put a scroll bar on it so that i can scroll through the cluster without having to scroll through the front panel.
I noticed that a string control or indicator can have a vertical scroll bar... but when i try to find this property on a cluster... it's not there!

there is a cluster with a scrollbar in the examples that may help you

Thanks for the info. I looked at the example but it won't let you scroll unless the VI is running. Oh well...

I'm also in need of a scroll bar on a cluster. It's so weird that labview allows you to make a cluster smaller than its contents but without scroll bars. That example code turns me off since it seems like a pretty large amount of code to do such a basic thing.
Anyway, another option I thought of is to use a subvi panel. You could put all the stuff that would be in your cluster in your subvi isntead, which would have horizontal and/or vertical scroll bars.
