system exec subvi. can't access block diagram for positioning

[Gearmiester]

OK I am back!

my first issue is that for some reason I can no longer attach files here for you all to see...

Second and more to the point is how can I tell the system exec.vi to open where I want it too when access to the block diagram is password protected and I can't seem to make any property nodes for the vi either.

I am using this vi to call the OSK (on screen keyboard) for touch screen panel.

I would have sample to show but see number one...

It sounds to me that you want to position the osk and that means access to the block diagram is irrelevant.

To position the program you are starting, try this.

Thanks Dennis - again

after posting i made an executible of the project as it stood and put it on my touch panel.

I found that it called it OK and I could just moveit around and resize it as i wanted, just once. then whenever i called up the OSK it was where i left it and the same size.

While this may be a small pain to the end user, I think i will keep it like that for now and just let whoever they are deal with it as part of the initial program protocol.

but what about not being able to add attachments here? do I need an adult?

There have been periodic problems with attachments. It seems to be browser dependent. I use Chrome without issues and I believe most of the problems have been associated with IE.
