Challenge of the Day: No palette!

Solved!
Go to solution

Cite one FP object, which, when right-clicked, offers no palette to pick up a related function or object.

 

EDIT: I meant Block Diagram (BD) objects, not Front Panel objects (FP), my bad.

Native palette? If not, OpenG Front Panel buttons won't cite back to their palette, but that could just be an add-on thing.

All of the .Net and ActiveX palette items.

We are talking BD objects, my bad.

I am talking about this behavior:

Oh, that's a tough one...

 

I'm trying to figure out why your right-click menu doesn't have a breakpoint option there too. Maybe that's a clue.

XNode is the easy answer.  I can make an XNode that using the reference to the right click menu just deletes all items.  Are you saying there is one shipped with LabVIEW that does this?

 

EDIT:  Oh that feature I've always found as half broken.  Some times it works some times it doesn't.  Especially for userlib stuff.

Stacked sequence structure doesnt... (in 2014) 🙂

 

... meaning my guess is that any old functions that are supported for backward compatability but not available in palettes would have this behavior.

But stacked sequence isn't on the palette in 2014 right?

 

EDIT:  Oh is the answer a VI that merges a VI?  Then the merged VI would be on the palette but not the function it drops.

You can right click a regular seq structure and convert.

Yes you can make it but isn't on the palette.  If that isn't a requirement then I'd say there are tons of stuff, practially any VI, in the vi.lib would qualify.
