is there a way to exclude moved wire from being differentiated when comparing 2 labview?
moved items drowns my other modification.
Hello, Al,
I use LVCompare a fair amount, and most of the time, the differences are all "real". If you are getting "false positives" (differences that aren't "real", but due to "cosmetic" changes), you can check out the options for "what to compare" (I don't remember the names for these, I believe there are about six of them, at least one being something like "Cosmetic").
A better way to make "editing changes" have a smaller effect is to write neat, consistent LabVIEW code. Do a Web search for LabVIEW Style, or buy Peter Blume's "The LabVIEW Style Book" (I read my copy three times, cover to cover, my first year using LabVIEW).
Here are some simple principles:
- (Almost) always use the Error Line to connect sequential functions and sub-VIs.
- Use the 4-2-2-4 Connector Pane for (almost) all your sub-VIs.
- Keep wires running straight (and horizontal) with as few bends as possible.
- Keep the Block Diagram small enough to fit on a single Laptop screen.
- Bury less-relevant code in a sub-VI that also has the 4-2-2-4 Pane and an Icon,, even if only three words of text so that the logic of the calling routine isn't "lost" in the grubby details.
Hope this helps.
