Hello,

As far as I know you can not create controls/indicators dynamically. What you can do is place all the controls/indicators on the and use property nodes to hide/show only the controls/indicators corresponding to the selected case.

Another way is having a tab control, and create one tab per case.

I hope this helps.

There's a "Visible" property of each control and indicator.

Here is a quick example in LabVIEW 8.5.1 with comment on the block diagram.

A tab control maybe useful, one tab or each case.
