"Key Down" event use in one page of tab control prevents using "Value Change" events on another page, even though separate case structure blocks handle the two
The attached VI has a tabbed control with two pages. On one page, titled "Using Value Change Events", there is a control and an indicator, and the underlying code processes a Value Change event on that control by adding one to the number and displaying it on the indicator. On the other page, titled "Using Key Down Events", there is an indicator, and the underlying code processes a Key Down event by displaying the scancode on the indicator. Both these underlying code blocks are in different cases of a case structure chosen by the tab control. Some extra items are ne...

tab control and event structure
Hello All, I have a rather complex front panel and I have tried to make it look readable using a tab control. How do I enter into a while loop if a certain page is selected in the tab control? I should exit the while loop the moment the user clicks out of the tab. I have done this with some rather complex looking code which invlove the user clicking an exit button, but I would like to simplify it with an event structure where just moving from one tab to another would close the loop automatically and no extra "Quit while loop button" is necessary. Any one h...

Tab control within another tab control
I am creating a form with a tab control containing 10 tabs. and what I want to do is on only on of the tabs, I want a sub section of tabs. So what it ends up being is one main tab control with another tab control embedded into only one of the tab pages. The problem I am getting is when I insert the sub section tab control into one of the tabs from the main tab control, the sub section tab control appears in every tab in the main tab control. Can anyone help? What do I need to do so it only appears in one tab, not all. Thanks As you found, you cannot place a tab control on one of the pages...

matching event sample to control sample but using any control observation only once

How do I use a LabView control element as ActiveX Control in another application?
I am was trying to include some simple ActiveX Controls(sliders, buttons) in my VBScript. It worked with other ActiveX Components from the web, however I wasn't able to include the LabView ActiveX Controls because I was missing the necessary IDs. Moreover I was able to test the LabView control by inserting it into the VC++- Test Container. But I still can't find the necessary IDs... I don't believe that any of the LabVIEW controls (except for 3D Graphs) are ActiveX controls so I'm not sure what control you were able to insert into the VC++ container. What's the exact name ...

tab control inside another tab control
Hi. Is it possible to put a tab control inside another tab control. I tried it several times, but for some reason this doesn't seem to work. Can someone confirm this, or tell me what the trick is. Thanks. -- Georges The only way I know to do this is to put a subform on the first tab control. Then you can put your second tab control on the subform. If you do this repeatedly, however, you will find the form loading rather slowly.

That's true of GMATCH. Look at VMATCH, which uses PROC ASSIGN to optimize when controls are not to be re-used. You need a license for SAS/OR to be able to use VMATCH. But you have added a wrinkle by specifying that 5-year window. I'm just not sure if there's a way to specify that to PROC ASSIGN. >Besides, I do not >follow most of the programmes....

Syntax of control on tab controls
I have a form "frmturnover" on which there is asubform "subfrmturnover" which has three tabcontrols say Page1, Page2 and Page3. There is control "control2" on Page2 that when its is entered I want to check if it is the same value as a control "control1" on Page1 and then show a pop up box if they don't match.

I also want to check the value of Control2 on page2 with the vale of control3 on a page1 o...

Control/Indicator descriptions are not imported or checked from LabVIEW to NI RG when they are placed on Tab controls

Maybe we can add this functionality to NI RG LabVIEW interface. Is there anyone can help in this? Andras ...

Locked controls on new tab after finishing event structure

Tab Control and Rectangle Hiding Controls
I'm trying to change the back colour of a tab control in Access 2010 by using a rectangle. I've selected the tab control (not an individual page) and pasted the rectagle (solid with required colour). I then send the rectangle to the back and then the tab control to the back. The problem is that most (but not all controls remain hidden) on each tab.

How to get one particular control added to Event Structure &gt; Edit Events &gt; Event Sources selection pane?
I want to create an event handler that responds to Mouse Up on one of my front panel controls, but this particular&nbsp;control is not listed in the Event Sources pane of the Edit Events dialog for the Event Structure where all the other controls are. How do I get it to show up there? All the other controls are already working this way, creating events that the Event Structure handles.&nbsp;This particular control&nbsp;doesn't appear to have any unique or unusual properties, it's just a boolean control, a switch, like most of the others. Restarting LabView still doesn't make it appear on the list. This LV 8.5 on WinXP. &nbsp; Thanks! Hi cebailey, could it be that this control is part of a cluster? Mike Hi, Mike. No clusters. Good idea, tho. Actually, I have now added several controls without seeing them on the list, at least at first. Then, while I was sitting there glaring at the list itself, it suddenly grew longer, and they were all there, appearing at the end. An extra gap appeared in the scroll bar at the right, too, making the handle part of the scroll bar a little shorter while I was looking at it.&nbsp;But it took a couple of minutes. Weird. Now I can point to all my controls, though I don't know if this will happen again if I add more. Is there any way to force this list to refresh itself? Or do we just need to wait if controls aren't there yet? I'm surprised&nbsp;the discrepancy&nbsp;could outlast closing and reo...
