RT Build Specifications: Component Definition Category is unresponsive

[ChrisFarmerWIS]

Hi,

I am using LabVIEW 2013 SP1 f2, with Real-Time 13.0.1

When I open the Properties page for a Real-Time Application build specification (to run on a cRIO-9075), and select the Component Definition category, I find that the following occurs:

 - LabVIEW becomes unresponsive, and thinks for a while. It takes approximately 20-30 seconds or so to finally show the Component Defintion page.

 - When I click on Create a component definition file (.cdf), nothing happens. As I write this, I see "Required software components", and then these are greyed out: "Software component description", and "Software version" - but there is nothing to select or change?

 - If I click on another category, it takes in the order of 20 seconds to finally show this category.

 - To close the build spec (by pressing OK), it also takes a long time (more than 60 seconds). 

 - Things are fine with the build spec if I never enter the Component Definition category.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

Any help would be appreciated.

Awesome RyanPoPo.  I will try that.

I am now curious to know why this doesn't feature on the NI Update Service!
