The thing is, i don't want user to do anything (like click OK button etc). the window should vanish automatically after few seconds of time . how to do this ? Quote Link to comment

Using a Method node set to operate on a VI reference and executing the FP.Close method, after everything else in the VI has finished? Quote Link to comment
martin_g Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 Use the Dialog using Events template and use the Timeout case of the Event Structure to stop the vi. Set the timeout value to 2000 (ms) for a 2 second display of the vi. The front panel will close when the vi stops. 1 Quote Link to comment
