Hello everyone, I once again have an issue with Typedefs. Sometimes after I edit a typedef LV crashes. Scenario: Opening typedef (Strict) Adding/ Removing/ Moving elements (opened VI now get greyed out elements) Saving the Typedef Closing the Typedef (Again asking me to save -> ok) Crashing System: PXI, LV 17.0f2 (32bit) Error Code: Unknown (0x00000000) at EIP=0x689E525F Had anyone else this issue?

I keep the VIs that use the type defs open and make sure they see the changes, again one at a time. I do not call that buggy since I have seen buggy (LV 6.1) and when it comes right down to it, making a bunch of changes and then expecting LV to read our mind when things disappear and new things appear... dogs and cats living together... So be gentle with the type defs and do not expect miracles. Ben In addition to removing items one at a time (reluctantly, for sure), I move each item to the bottom, apply changes, save all before removing it. Call me paranoid.

Thats probably the best practice
