Looking for a way to programmatically set the visible front part when opens a Subvi
I'm looking for a way to programmatically set the visible portion of the front panel, when a Subvi opens. Did not find all the messages that are related, but I do not know how to ask the right question. To be clear, I want to write a VI assistance programme through a list of subVIs to ensure that background images are all in the same place when to open their respective subVIs. I hate to play manually with scroll bars before I save each of the screws... I'm thinking I need to find the top/left of the background image location (know already do) and then to set a property of the VI FP some offset or these values, but I can't find the corresponding property. FP:run - timeposition:custom looked promising, but only affects the location of the window, and not the area of the front panel displays the window.
I should have added that the idea of using the background image does NOT change the origin. Therefore, always be close enough, as your controls and indicators won't move, just the image.
I personally use the OpenG VI and the open method of front panel, when I am in your situation.

All the desktop icons change set to an incompatible program.
The desktop icons all try to open with the same program, so for most fail. Restart doen't fix it. Restore to a previous point failed to 3 different restore times. Open programs from the Start button, but the link to transfer on the table, they come back to the same type of icon. At present, everything is tempting (and failing) to open it in SKYPE! Web sites and email work OK after some fiddling. Please, any help?
