I stumbled across something just now in LV 17 that seems to be a bug. But a minor one in the user interface that hasn't seemed to cause any harm that I can detect. I'm attaching a LV17 that demonstrates and includes the steps to witness it. Basically I have two label decorations located on a tab control that I had selected together. When I right click on them, the shortcut menu gives an option to "Change to Indicator". That surprised me because I would have never thought to turn a label into an indicator. If I just pick one label, or select multiple labels but they are set on the pane of the front panel, then this does not happen. Clicking Change to Indicator seems to do nothing. Upon further testing, this behavior occurred for other decorations like raised bevel boxes. So something weird happens when multiple decorations that are rooted within a tab control causes the right click menu option of "Change to Indicator" to appear. I just replicated it in LV 2014 as well. Try it out and see if you have the same thing happen. It seems like a bug. But not one that causes any real problem.
