Issue Details

I want to resize some controls on a panel using splitter control. How can I do this in LabWindows?

Solution

There are two ways to resize controls using splitters in LabWindows either manually or programmatically.

A) Using Attach/Detach Control Dialog Box
Controls can be attached or detached to the splitter using Attach/Detach Controls dialog box. This dialog box can be accessed when splitter is double-clicked and press Attach/Detach Controls.. button.

B) Using AddCtrlToSplitter function
Controls can be programmatically attached to the splitter using the AddCtrlToSplitter function and configure the attachment mode.

Additional Information

When you set a splitter control to any mode other than indicator mode, you can move or resize elements on a panel using the mouse or keyboard.
