Of course it is possible. There is vitually nothing impossible in LabVIEW ;-) You will have to look at the Picture Control if you want to stay native. Expect this project to be a major work however. The Picture Control is like a sketchboard. You can create code in LabVIEW to draw anything in there. The problem arises if you want to let the user modify an already created drawing. You will have to map the mouse click back to the object you think the user wants to modify and figure out a way to let the user do operations on that object. The first thing is done by really maintaing the drawing as an array of clusters with each cluster being an object and all the necessary parameters in the cluster like the type of object, size, location, and so on. Every time you want to update the entire drawing you walk through this array and create a new Picture Control drawin. To find back the object which a user might have clicked at you will again walk that list and need some smart routine to find out the object best mapping to that location. Then you might have to find a way to let the user manipulate the object. Things like moving an object are obvious operations but still not all to simple. Other operations might best be handled by object specific property dialogs you popup.

Dear Rolf,

Thanks for reply, I'm novice in Labview so is there any example of such type of VI If possible.

Thanks

I want to develop an application in which user can create drawing (Electrical Network)at runtime user can pick controls like line, transformers, bus, PT, etc. electrical objects through tool box and place them on working area (drawing area) and save this drawing for further use. In future this drawing is connected with SCADA. Is it possible in Labview??

Pls. reply as soon as possible.

Thanks

Vivek
