Open a subvi inside the main front panel, not popping out

[ErfanY]

Hi

I am writing a program which contains multiple subvis. The option that I have in the node setup of the subvi is that to open the front panel when calling. What I want to do is that open the front panel of the subvi inside the main front panel.

For example there is main and subvi1 and subvi2. In the main FP there would be boolean button like Start. when it's pressed the subvi FP opens for user to enter some parameters but this subvi should be opened inside the main FP and when the user presses done. it returns to main FP.

I tried to search for it online and inside on labview but I couldn't find anything. Also I am a newbie to labview so I don't have much experience.

Thanks,

Erfan

Actually, No. I have come to that link before but that is not what I intend to do. Let me clearify a bit more by bringing an example. I want the newtext.vi opens inside the texteditor.vi but not poppinng out. and when it exited the newtext.vi it returns to texteditor.vi
