Another Bitey LV Quirk

[paul_cardinale]

If you're looking for a front panel object, you can wire a Front Panel Reference (or even a VI Reference) to the "owner refnum" input ... as long as the VI has only 1 pane.  If it has more than 1 pane, you must wire a reference to the specific pane on which the control resides.

Never use the Open VI Object Reference function. It doesn't do well when looking for nested objects. Instead, use this hidden gem:

[LabVIEW 20xx]\vi.lib\Utility\traverseref.llb\TRef Find Object By Label.vi
