Adding copyright to the front panel using scripting

[Tomi Maila]

Hi,

I've been trying to add a copyright notice to the front panel of my VIs using scripting. Everything else seems to be easy but I just don't know how to create text on the front panel. More specifically I don't know what value to wire to style input of New VI Object. Style "Label" creates labels in a box but I don't like the box surrounding the label. Or is there another way?

Answer to myself. The style I was looking for is "system label".

This method won't change the style, but it will make that box transparent:

Thanks Chris, maybe I'll use this and get off my butt for releasing that button library.

You program while you stand?

I wrote a small scripting tool to add copyrights to VI front panels. EDIT: Not very fancy though. That's why I didn't submit it to code repository.

Still a nice tool, and for projects no less. Good work.
