How can I hide the main front panel when I run from the executable?

Hopefully this is an easy question. I have an application where the front panel is not the main GUI and I would like to hide it when the program runs, but only when it runs from the executable. How can I do this?

Yeah, don't do that. Executables built in LV require at least one front panel to be open. If it isn't, the run-time engine automatically closes the executable. I haven't checked recently, but I assume this is still the case.
Instead, you can set the FP state to minimized (as suggested earlier) or (better) to hidden.
P.S. one side point - the property and invoke nodes have a shortcut - if you use the Application or VI classes and don't connect a reference, they default to the current app or VI. That means you don't have to open the reference.

  • How can I close a remote front panel by closing only the browser window?

    I control a remote front panel in a browser (from the client PC). If I don't use the 'close' - button in my program to end the remote front panel, but instead of this the 'x' of the browser window (in the right bottom corner), my program won't be close, it continues on the server. Do you know how to end a VI by closing only the browser windows?
    Thanks for any help!
    wolfe

    I found the examples. Thanks.
    But I could not find a solution yet. Now I know how to end a VI by clicking on the x of the VIwindow.
    My problem is, to end a VI by clicking on the x of the BROWSER window after I loaded and controlled a remote panel VI in a browser (e.g. IE).
    If you have any ideas ... I'd be happy.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I save an EXE front panel image to a file?

    The methods to save a VI front panel image to a file don't work on executable applications. How can I save an EXE front panel image to a file? (LabVIEW 6.1)

    Hi,
    i wrote some vi that save FP to image and created exe and it works fine. How do you save FP to image in VI?
    If you use VI server method "Get Panel Image" and use "Write JPG file" ( or BPM) it works fine.

  • How can I make an external link (to a different folder) from the main menu?

    How can I make an external link (to a different folder) from the main menu?

    If the folder is outside the Muse page, you will have to insert manual HTML to define a more complex URL like e.g. ../_stuff for going one level up and then into a folder called "_stuff" The deeper you are in the hierarchy, the more ../ you will have to add to climb up.

  • HOW CAN I DELETE AN EVENT WITHOUT  HAVING TO SELECTING IT FROM THE LIBRARY?

    I have a big problem.
    I want to delete an entire event from my library because everytime I select it imovie freezes and then close itself up. So I have to re-open imovie again. And when I want to select that particular event again the same problem occures. So I can not select that particular event. Therefore I can take NO action on this event.
    HOW CAN I DELETE AN EVENT WITHOUT HAVING TO SELECTING IT FROM THE LIBRARY?
    (Everytime I select it imovie closes itself up)
    All other events work fine. I believe The footage had a problem from capturing. but now it's in my computer and i can't open it.
    Please help me, I don't need this event, I can't open it therefore I can't use it and it takes place on my hardrive for nothing.
    Thank you

    One can delete it from one's computer. In the finder go to homeuser, movies, imovie events, delete the footage.
    Then reopen iMovie and see if that helps.

  • The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?

    The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?  I'm working with Lightroom 5.3.  The missing controls are the sliders for exposure, contrast, clarity, etc.  I must have inadvertantly clicked something that made them disappear but nothing I've tried brings them back.  I've never had this experience in the years I've been using Lightroom (since version 1.1).

    Right-click on any other item Tone Curve for ex., and check on "Basic" if that's what you are missing.
    If you miss the complete Develop module right-click any other item  Library for ex and put a check on Develop

  • How can i edit graphs on front panel?

    Hello!
    My problem is the following:
    I need a front panel, where i can edit the graph. It doesn't need to be very complicatted. It means, there is 5 steps. For example: It will control a thermal chamber, and it should give 25 celsius for 2 hours, then cool down until 2 hours to -40 celsius, 4 hours on -40, then back to 25 celsius until 2 hours, stay there for 2 hours, up to 105 celsius until 2 hours, 4 hours on 105 , 2 hours down to room constant, stay 2 hours there. But i need to be control the levels. The temperature levels, and the time periods. It's nessesery to control this on front panel. I've found a vi , which is reading in *.lvm files with datas x,y and then it's interpolating. But it is not setable after setting.
    Please help me. Thank You very much!

    If you want to specify the profile graphically then you can use cursors to do it. An old example can be found here. You may find others by doing your own search (hint, hint).
    Otherwise, you can simply use a multicolumn listbox to specify the indvidual profile segments, and a graph can be used to display the entered profile whenever the listbox changes. 

  • How can I embed video on front panel ?

    I need to embed the IMAQ vision window on the front panel(video acquistion).

    The newest versions of LabVIEW (7.0) and IMAQ (2.6) give you an easy way to embed the image on your front panel. They have a image control that you can put on your front panel and wire your image to.
    If you don't have LV 7, your only option for display is the WindDraw window (for fast display). This can be embedded on the front panel by using the "Make IMAQ Child.vi", which can be found on the Developer zone. It takes a little more work, but looks pretty good.
