Context help window not showing up while running a VI

Hello,
 
When I press control+h in LabView while in edit mode, the context help window shows up fine.
 
But when I run the VI or run the .exe file, I press control+h and nothing happens.
 
Is there anything I'm missing? Like a configuration.
 
Thanks and best regards.

Hi Seyss,
which LabView version do you use? I have no problems to show and hide it while the vi is running.

Hi 🙂

I use version 6.0.2.

I attached the .VI in case you like to test it. I'd really appreciate.

Thanks very much.

Under VI properties "Allow Debugging" is unchecked. Perhaps that is why the help does not show up. Some of your subVIs are missing so I cannot test it.

Just tested enabling "Allow Debbuging", still can't pop-up the context help window 😞

This is weird..

I got some examples that I can open the context help window without any problems.

Hi, Seyss, try to enable Run-Time menu first (check option Show Menu Bar in Window Appearance in VI properties).
