In each VI in the project go to VI properties by pressing ctrl --> I then. Mark these two options

hi ranjeet, 

we want both the text and all objects automatically get resized depending on screen resolution of the monitor. But only objects are resizing but not the text. Please find the screenshot.

for both the image or in the PC is LV is installed?

This is mainly for installer VI file installed in other PC not for new created VI in the development PC.

Hi ranjith, 

my requirement is, i am developing the front end on LV 2012 on a low resolution PC. and my target is a 24" high resolution PC.

what i want is, the panel to be displayed properly across both the resolutions and when window is maximized, all items and text proportionately displayed.

but, as i sent you the files before, i am not able to do it with the window size settings provided in the tool.

Please guide me on what other steps i can look into.

VI resizing is not as easy of a task as you might think.  More time can be spent on the UI making it work the way you want then on the actual code that does the work.  Developers usually try the resize option in the VI first and see how it doesn't do what they want.  Then they usually try using splitters and panes, when that is too difficult they go to property nodes to manually move and resize controls based on the UI size.

I'd recommend posting your VI's front panel and describe what should happen when the VI is resized, and others can take a stab at it.
