Overview
The project uses events and manipulation of references and property nodes to control tab moving.


Description
This project is event driven. If the mouse hovers over the panel on the left-hand side, a tab control will slide out. There is also a lock button that will lock the tab control out.  A modification that could be made to this code could be adding additional pages to the Tab control and populating the pages with controls and indicators.


Requirements

  • LabVIEW 2013 (or compatible)


Steps to Implement or Execute Code

  1. Open the project and Run the Main.vi
  2. Hover the mouse over the 3 panels on the left-hand side of the screen
