Protect a panel

[Raba34]

Hello,

I'm trying to protect a panel against modification, but I can't find a way to do it.

Is this perhaps because I am using the "Community Edition"? The documentation says that this requires the "Base Development System". This is not licensed for me. But for the "Professional Development System" I have an evaluation license. It should work with that.

I use LabVIEW NXG 5.1

Thanks

A couple things...

I am going to go out on a limb here and say that I think you are running your program in the development environment. So when you program is stopped the user can move things around on the front panel and even alter your code on the block diagram.

Don't do that! You should not be running programs in the development environment once you are done developing them. The Application Builder is included in the Community Edition, use it compile your program into an executable and run the executable.

Also you might want to consider this post before you spend a lot of time developing programs in NXG.

Thank you for your quick and informative reply.

I have read the linked article. I have installed LabVIEW NXG 5.1. The article says that this is the last version of LabVIEW NXG 5.1. I just installed yesterday and just had a little look around.

Should I uninstall this version again and install LabVIEW 2021 Community edition? Is that better?

(Unfortunately, this edition seems to be available only in English.)
