Layout VIs

Use the TestStand Layout VIs to position and resize user interface controls.

Palette Object Description
Create Control Info Collects the bounds, size, and position information from an ActiveX control or LabVIEW tab control. The data type you wire to the AXCont Refnum In input determines the polymorphic instance to use.
Divide Space Between Panes Use this VI to divide an area between two or more panes. If the area is larger or smaller than the current sum of the pane sizes, LabVIEW distributes the available area among the open panes in proportion to their current relative sizes. This VI might require modification for use with more than one border per control.
Drag Splitter Use this VI from the BorderDragged event for a TestStand control that has a drag border enabled to resize the master control that owns the drag border and the slave control that shares the area the border splits. This VI might require modification for use with more than one border per control.
Load Bounds Loads the bounds for a set of controls from the TestStand application configuration file. Use the TestStand - Save Bounds VI to save the bounds. You must use this VI and the TestStand - Save Bounds VI with the same set of controls in the same order.
Load Sizes Loads the height and width for each control you specify from a TestStand application configuration file. You must use this VI and the TestStand - Save Sizes VI with the same set of controls in the same order.
Save Bounds Saves the bounds for a set of controls to the TestStand application configuration file.
Save Sizes Saves the height and width for each control you specify to the TestStand application configuration file.
Update Control Position and Size Updates the size and position of the control to the values in the Control Info parameter. The data type you wire to the AXCont Refnum In input determines the polymorphic instance to use.
