user interface---Unable to go to the next page.

[ou]

Hi all,

I have some major and urgent problem that needs to be sloved asap. My programme is created in such a way that when user hits the start toggle switch on the front panel, it will bring the user to the next tab/page which is the display selection page . However, it did not respond as expected.

And also, how do i connect the icon( display message to user) in the programme? My intention is that after user views the display/execution of the programme, a message will pop up telling the user the next acton he/she should take.

Attached is my programme. i am using labview 7.1. Please advise me on how to go about solving the problem. Thank You.

Best Regards

In the dialog "Edit Event" there is a check box "Lock Front Panel ..." this box should be unchecked for the stop buttons to work.

Your current implementation is difficult to understand.

1. Try to fit your code into a maximum screen size of 1024x768.
2. Try to avoid using while loops in while loops (less scalability, projects tend to grow larger).
3. Build a state-machine : init state(set all intial variable states), main state (handle all user interaction with the event structure), quit state (reset all variables and exit application nicely).
4. Migth not be important now, but try to keep execution time in event case short (not important when user cannot interact during chosen function)

Hope it helps, if not someone else probably adds to my comment.
