Center control on front panel

Solved!
Go to solution

I try to create a VI with some controls in the center of the front panel. 

 

My idea was to create two vertical splitters and set the splitter sizing to "Splitter Sizes Proportionally". 

 

That works, but I want the pane in the middle to keep its width - only the both sides should resize horizontally. I can't find the solution. Is it at all possible? 

 

Any alternative idea?

Try to set left slider like this:

and right slider like that:

will this combination work for you?

Yes, I already tried it, but if I resize the front panel, the right pane resizes more than the left one

Ah, OK, I see. Well, if nothing else helps, then theoretically it is possible to get pane's size programmatically, and then change positions of the splitters with property nodes as needed. Not very elegant, but will work, definitively.
