LV Icons

[MimiKLM]

Hi,

I'm using LV8.6. And I'd like to use the icon from extenal file (ico) for my VIs. Can I do this in 8.6?

Are you referring to the application icon, or the VI icon? For the application you can simply configure the build spec to use that icon file. For the VI icon you can't use .ico files directly. You can copy the icon image and paste it when you're in the VI Icon Editor. Did you try that?

For completeness, I will mention you can also do this programatically using the VI method VI Icon.Set From File.  This is usually only useful for development automation or scripting.  For manual development, the simple copy/paste smercurio_fc mentioned is much easier.
