1 3. Front Panel Sty le 3.前面板风格 The LabVIEW front panel is named to emphasize its capability to emulate the panels of traditional self-contained instruments. Indeed, when LabVIEW was first released in 1986, its primary purpose was to control laboratory instruments via GPIB and serial interface. Oh, how times have changed! Today LabVIEW is applied to many different types of applications, industries, and instrumentation. The complexity of applications has dramatically increased. The evolution of front panels is no exception. 3D controls, tab controls, tree controls, containers, Property Nodes, VI Server, Event structures, and subpanels are modern innovations that facilitate powerful LabVIEW applications. LabVIEW 前面板命名着重于仿效传统的自成一体的仪器的前面板，其实，当 LabVIEW 在 1986年首次发布时，它主要目的是通过 GPIB 和串行接口控制实验室仪器，随着时间的推移，今天LabVIEW 适用于许多不同类型的应用领域，包括工业和测量仪器。应用领域的复杂性戏剧性的提高了，前面板的演变也无一例外，3D 控件，选项卡控件，树型控件，容器，属性节点，VI 服务器，事件结构和子窗口，这些现代的创新极大的丰富了 LabVIEW 的应用。 Despite these innovations, many front panel design techniques used by early LabVIEW developers still apply today. Additionally, many of the modern innovations aid our ability to organize and simplify an otherwise complex graphical user interface (GUI). This chapter provides guidelines that help make your LabVIEW front panels intuitive, user friendly, and conforming to industry standards. We begin by defining some terms that I use to describe the scope of each guideline. 尽管有这些创新，但许多早期 LabVIEW 开发者使用的前面板设计技术仍在使用，另外，许多现代创新是我们能够组织和简化其他复杂的图形用户界面（ GUI ）,本章提供了一些帮助您的LabVIEW 前面板直观、界面友好和符合工业标准的设计规则，...
