How can I find which VIs are actively running?

[FermWorks]

How can I find which VIs (among thousands) are actively running (not just reserved)?  (Exec.State property is not enough)

DETT

Yes, if you need to do that dynamically- do it!

the Desktop Execution Trace Toolkit, Its not something I have needed to play with but, if I am understanding you correctly you might need to check it out.

Post back, I'll learn something!

Or the less expensive way (not needing the DETT) would be something like this

I think @FermWorks is already aware of this property node, and what she meant to ask here is: any method to get the list of VIs, which are actually running at a given instant of time.
Your solution will all the VIs in memory and has state as 'Running', which mean "VI is reserved for execution by one or more active top-level VIs".

I would really enjoy an extensive dialog on this subject. I have found the "running" Exec.State a little confusing. Right now I'm looking at a "Main" vi that is just sitting there waiting for an input to an event structure. It shows 500+ vi's "running" - except the Main vi.

That's because Main.vi is now "Run Top Level" not "Running"

I'll give DETT a try when I get a chance. I'm troubleshooting on a LV 8.6 system but could load all in LV 11, if necessary. I'll let you know if I figure it out, thanks.

Thanks for the clarification. Doh!

Not quite.  Meg wants "Is Run Arrow Black?" to filter out the reserved vis
