I'm running the example MultiUUT\BatchUUT.seq in TestStand 4.2 and its not tiling the execution windows in the Operator interface. It its being tiled in the Sequence Editor.
The "Tile Execution Windows" checkbox is checked in the Model Options dialog box.
What else could be causing this problem?

Tiling is not a feature of the example OIs. They only have one window.
There is an old multiwindow example online that supports tiling.

I having some trouble with the Visual Studio project for that example. I'll need to look into it. However, I did get it work with VS 2003 and TS 4.2.1.

Do you have an example for LabVIEW 8.6 and TestStand 4.2?
The example requires VS and TestStand 3.0 and I do not have either.

Sorry, I see now that you said it would work in TestStand 4.2, but the VS requriement is still not workable for me.

Again, sorry, but I should have told you what I need to do first. I need to construct a sequence to run in parallel, and have separate test-step execution windows visible at the same time. I am not familiar with C#.
Do you have an example that's language independent? One that runs canned tests? All i want to know is how to setup TestSTand so that the operator sees two pararallel executions on the screen during exectution. Just employming the parallel model doesn't do this in the Operator interface. But it does work in the sequence editor.

Whether multiple executions display in one window, multiple windows, or not at all, is a function of the User Interface program. The sequence editor and the C# multi-window example are written to display multiple executions simultaneously in separate windows.
All the other shipping examples are written to display one execution at a time in a single window. I don't know of any other multiwindow UI examples firsthand, but I googled and found this, which might help:

Hey Mike,
Take a look at the BatchUUT example. It uses the batch process model, but in this example 4 separate test windows open up tiled together. Is this the functionality you are looking for? You can find the BatchUUT example at C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\TestStand <version>\Examples\MultiUUT
Let me know if that helps at all.
