Adding/Removing buttons during execution

[Florentj]

Hi,

here is simple question from a beginner:

How do I add/remove buttons on the same front panel in "real time". Let's say I have a main front panel running, then a condition is met and I would like to offer the user some options. How can I make these new options (buttons) appear on the same front panel (no new dialog).

Any help is much appreciated,

Juan

Hi Juan,

you can create a property node from the buttons with the property "visible" (true/false). This should help.

have a nice day

Hi Juan:

Also, think about possibly using the enabled property node to set the inactive controls to the "Disabled and Greyed" state-- from the UI point of view better than simply making the control disappear-- the user knows that the action is sometimes, but not presently, an option.

Best Regards, Louis
