Moves the object to the specified position.
Note If you attempt to move an object to the owning VI of another object, LabVIEW makes a copy of the object instead of moving the object.
Parameters
| Name | Data type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| position |  |
Yes | The location where you want to move the object. The position is relative to the owning object. |
| owner |  |
No | The owning object. If you specify the owner, LabVIEW moves the object into the owning object. |
| Duplicate? (F) |  |
No | If TRUE, LabVIEW makes a copy of the object instead of moving the object. If the owner you specify is located in a different VI, LabVIEW assumes Duplicate? is TRUE. |
