Include examples of actual Applications in LabVIEW, not just functions

Status: Completed

Available with Project Templates and Sample Projects feature added to LabVIEW 2012 and later.

One thing which occurred to me today is that the majority of examples which ship with LabVIEW concentrate on one function or another.

 

What we don't seem to really have is an example for an actual functioning application with a GUI which actually does something useful.  Or at least I'm unaware of something like this.

 

I think it would be neat to include a sample project for an application demonstrating how to load and save to INI files, set front panel objects, Custom menu interaction, how to synchronise loops and so on.  Just a small-ish program which does SOMETHING useful (not the Icon editor, that's too complex).

 

I think this might help a lot of people "get" the things needed for a decent application as opposed to running code from within the IDE all the time.
