Dynapanels is a technology which allows placing controls or indicators in a vi front panel. This technology does not use any VI Scripting and hence it is perfectly safe to use it in executable or commercial application.
Controls are created dynamically
Control can be binded to any variable published withing your program
No memory consumption if control is not created for any perticular variable.
Very useful for allowing end user to create their own report formats.
Macro recording can be added for storing control placements. or even raising actions in a perticular sequence.
Custom dynamic controls can be created in minutes by using template.
No VI Scripting is used.
Can be used to create toolbars (toolbars can be extended through plug ins as well)
Dynamic controls can handle any event of standard control
Can subscribe to more than one variable
Can preprocess data before display.
Uses Publisher Scubscriber Architecture
you can also download the demo application built with LabVIEW 8.2 at http://www.jambhekar...dynapanels.htmlI understand that the demo shows very basic proof of concept. But please do give feedback about what additional features will make this even better.
