Hello CD. I am trying to customize the FRC dashboard to better suit our team's needs. There is a problem however, and that is the fact that text is very hard to read on the dark background. I was wondering how the people at FIRST/NI made those nice-looking, colorful category things for each of the slots (green "Slot 1", blue "Slot 4", brown "Robot IP", etc.), so that I could use those to group my own data. The closest I have come was using Decorations->Raised Rounded Box, however it is very odd-looking and the components don't group together like they do in FIRST's categories. I'm a total LabVIEW newbie, by the way.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Ilya Ostrovskiy

EDIT: Found it! They use a Decorations->Lowered roundedbox, change the background color (using the Tools palette), and as far as the text and "separator" go - I just Ctrl+Drag'ed those. After that I grouped them using layout controls (the button with the two arrows in a circle). Hopefully this should save other Dashboard-developers some hair-pulling.
So much for LabVIEW being developer-friendly.
