A bug report - LabView crashes when exporting custom control 'Slide array'

[MengHuiHanTang]

I was trying to make a bar graph out of a slide array. But when I tried to export the graph, it crashed LabView every single time. 

I am not sure if it is a unique case in this PC, or is it a but to be fixed.

IIRC, the problem occurs when exporting an array of type defs.

Are those controls type defs? Try disconnecting them. Not ideal, but if it prevents crashing...

The other workaround that only works when running is to catch the menu selection event and do your own export.

No, they are not type def. I simply drag the slide control from the left into an array container. 

I simply wanted to report a potential bug. I don't really have to use this slide array. You are right, there are many other workarounds.

CAR 631802 is filed for the behavior wiebe@CARYA described. I added some additional notes to the CAR documenting that a crash also occurs when exporting an array of progress bars, knobs, color box constants, etc. and that they do not need to be type defs in this case.

CAR 631802 is fixed in LabVIEW 2018
