Resize the object inside the tab control

Hello

I have problems with the design of a user interface. I need to have multiple controls resize with panel inside a tab control.

I see it right, there is no way to have a resize done inside a tab with decorations control that separates controls?

I have not yet checked LabVIEW 2013.

I have attached a vi in LV2012 as an example.

Thanks in advance.

Yes it is a feature I've wanted also over the years.  Here's the first result that I got from the exchange of idea, but I think that there are duplicates autour.

Basically, you can't do nativly but you can trick it work for you.  You make a tab that is false the user interacts with, changes to the value of another tab that things in it and then you fix every thing you want it is in the tab where it is demonstrated.  This works well if the thing in your tab is an element able to evolve to adapt to it, but if in a tab, you have a chart and another you have a bunch of buttons that should not change, then you will get a strange behavior.  You can tell the chart is more scope to this component, but then you lose the 'ladder while resizing objects' that make a lot more native user interface research.

  • I can't resize any object inside a tab control and control of the tab itself

    Hi all

    Since this morning I noticed that I can't always resize the object placed inside a tab control or the control tab itself.

    I have a few objects (controls, indicators, etc.) outside of the tab control, and they are resizable (I can see the dark blue squares and I am able to adjust the object); Instead, any object inside the tab control is still not resizable (when I select the dark blue boxes are not visible and I can't access the properties of the object by clicking with the right button of the mouse over it). If I have access to the properties of the object to the block diagram, the appearance of her-> frame size is gray and I can't change the size fields.

    It seems that something was changed when I try to adjust the minimum window size and appearance of windows in the proposals of VI, but I restore the previous values...

    How can I solve this problem?

    Sure, tab control is not locked.

    If the tab control is locked that resize is not possible

  • Property for the tab control node

    Hi, please explain the difference between the two operations explained below. For reference, I here enclose pictures of towing.

    Theoretically, according to the the help page in labview, when I have quand j' ai mis set 'allow the colors multi property' true, can I change the colors of the page in the tab control. But here, the program runs in reverse. When I set this property to false and run a program, a tab control object in front of Panel will change the color, I gave (first image with control of bule color tab). When set to true, the execution of a program, it is default (second image, control tab by default) color. I don't know how it goes. Thanks in advance

    You should get the reference of the tab Page and change the color individually if you want.

    -Set the multiple colors allow TRUE: https://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/lvprop/tabctrl_allow_multi_clrs/

    -Get each reference page:https://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/lvprop/pagesel_pgs/

  • Tab in the tab control order

    Hi all

    I found in aid and other messages that you put inside the tab order a tab control by clicking with the right button on the page and selected redorder controls in the page.

    I'm using Labview 8.0 and for the life of me I can't get this to work. I clicked everywhere: places within the tab governed, on the page tab on the label, on the legend, on the label, etc. and I can't get the menu to appear.

    Anyone know the problem?

    Hi abeaver,

    I could find to rearrange controls on the Page in LabVIEW 8 on a page of specific tabs by right-clicking its edge. You have several controls on the page for the menu option is displayed (ie. it is not there if there is one or none of the controls on the specific page you want to rearrange):

    As regards the order of tabs when running when you have a tab control, you will have to use the arrow keys to navigate between the specific tabs in the tab control when it is selected (you cannot use the tab key). This is explained with more information here:

  • Inexplicable delay between the evolution of the tab control pages

    Hello dear OR Forum.

    I have a strange problem.

    In my program, I use a tab control.

    On a change in the pages of pc immediately once the user clicks on the other page, but on another pc it is delayed (approx. 1 second) until the new page is displayed. The rest of the program works with the same "speed".

    You have an idea why this happens?

    The main program includes a while loop with a delay of 25ms. In the loop, there is a case structure, cases are different pages of the tab control.

    (it's the same exe file)

    Thank you.

    Tabs changing pages require a screen refresh if at least the graphics adapters could make all the difference.

  • Create a journal in the tab control tab and create tab is disabled and grayed out

    Can you helpme to solve my question about the connection in the tab control? So basically I have two pages in a tab control, page 1 contains, log in as user name, password, and login button and second page is nothing.

I also download the vi that I created and please correct me if I have a problem with my vi.

  • The table of waveform in the tab control

    Hello

    I would change the parcel number and the name of a waveform graph plotting in a tab control.

    First of all, it works fine without a tab control, but I have several cards (such as temperature, pressure, tension...) while I put every chart in the pages of a tab control.

    1077 error happened when I "add" the parcel number and change the name of the parcel.

    Here is a sample I did to describe this problem.

    Start, if the number is 20, there are 20 plots in this table on page 2.

    t

    Do not operate the switch, replace C 3, N-18 and run that and it can be seen that the tab control will pass to page 1.

    Switch to page 2 and field names are updated, but left a relic.

    Add N 22, replace C 2, and then run it again.

    Error 1077 has arrived! Go to page 2 and the parcel number is always 20, and field names are updated at 20.

    Run it again and it works fine!

    It is very difficult for me.

    If I spend first on page 2 and run the program, it works very well also.

    (In other words, if the switch is active, then the program works very well.)

    The version of LabVIEW mine is 2011.

    I don't know I missed or misunderstanded something about this problem.

    Is someone can give me any suggestions? Thank you very much

    Step 1: Do not use tabs, use sub-panels. You can get the same user experience, but with a much simpler code.

  • Program switching a page on the tab control

    Hello

    I use LV8.6 and I have a menu drop-down selector to choose what unit I want to test.  This allows the page that controls the unit and disables others.  What I want to do is when the unit is selected, the page is enabled (which I did) and the page to be selected and view.  Does anyone know how this is done?

    Thank you

    Martin

    Simply change the value of the tab control. Send 3 and it'll show the 3rd page. If you create a constant, that it works as an Enum and will display the names of page as options.

  • get rid of the shadow of the legend in the tab control

    Hello

    I use LV7.0 on W2K and have encountered a difficulty.  Often when I need a text face before being modified programmatically, I'll put a control or the off indicator on the side (out of sight) and serve its legend of the label.  It keeps me from having to find a way to get a reference to a real label... which has always been a pain.  I just use a property node to edit the text in the legend.  My problem is, for the application, that I am currently in train, I need to use a tab control.  If I set the label (caption) in the tab control, it flies over, showing a shadow under it.  It doesn't know if the control is in the tab control only when the control is not in the tab control.  Is there a way to make this stop behavior?

    Thank you.

    Rick

    He's going to do. It was the way it was made to show you that it is not within the tab control. You should note however that when you start your program that the shadow will disappear. The shadow is there when you are programming.

  • does not by default the tab control in LabVIEW 2009

    I have a tab control in my LabVIEW program. I put the default value of the three page tab control. In older versions of LabVIEW, when the program opens, it opens with the display of page three. Prefect! But now in LabVIEW 2009, it opens to 1 page view. I tried to adjust the default time and again, but it is enough to open with the display of page three. Looks like it's broken in LabVIEW 2009. (I know that I can get around that, but apparently botched when the program opens on page 1 and jerks on on page three.) And change the order of pages would break the code. I don't do that.)

    To make the solution more smooth, you can uncheck see the façade when called property of vi and show it programatically after that you put on page 3.

  • typedef enum typedef to the tab control

    I have a typedef enum that defines that the DUT is for my automated test device. This enumeration is used everywhere in my code to determine which tests to run and how to interpret the results, etc. I also have a (much indicator tab to be precise) typedef tab control that has a page for each of the ESA with various indicators for each test that will be carried out on it must HAVE specific.

    I would use the typedef enum to select which page of the tab indicator to display. I am able to do it with brute force just a U32 converter like this:

    But would prefer to (because of my anality) eliminate dotting ugly coercian red (and depending on the size of the code, all memory that I can save help too).

    I tried many things, and none seems not to work. In this way, using a type cast, does not work.

    And not that this using variants (although it works with this little piece of the code example, maybe because my test set-up is an executable?):

    With the variant version, my test fixture survey an error 91 indicating data types is not compatible.

    Anyone has an idea how to convert between these two without which dot ugly coercian?

    Why not write a little VI with Enum entry and exit of the tab? It should be just a case internally structure. You can do the small icon so it does not much more space than the U32 conversion.

  • Check out the current programmatically tab when you use the tab control

    Hi, I'm kinda a n00b.

    I have 10 tables of data and I want to draw these 10 berries on 10 separate charts.  I don't want to clutter my screen so I made a tab control, with a tab for the path of each data table.  But I don't want to trace all at the same time, I want that each parcel having its own button "trace data" so that the user can customize the trace for each of these options.

    I could do with 10 pieces of code with 10 different buttons, but as I said I hate the mess, so I prefer to put all this into a business structure by which according to any tab the user has selected, when they press one 'plot data', labview gets data appropriate and plots as a result.

    Now, I know that the tabs are indexed and I can return at any time to any page given by using the property Node--> Pages, but I need a way to retrieve the index of the currently selected page.  Once I have that, I know how to do the rest.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you

    Jessie

    It is exactly what it seems that there is a terminal on the schema that represents the tab. On the front panel, right click and select 'Find the Terminal'.

    Here's the code 8.0.
