Red X on bottom left corner of palette VIs - What the heck is going on?

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a subpalette of my own VIs in user.lib that have red 'X's on the bottom left corner of them. I have been ignoring it for a long time, but it bugs me that LabVIEW is trying to tell me something is wrong and I don't know what it is.

 

All the ones with the 'X' are members of a class. They work fine with no problems. The palette items are all pointed to the right place. The class doesnt' seem to have any problems; I use it all the time.

 

I have never seen this before, nor have I yet found a place where this indication is mentioned either in LV Help or the online KB. It does nto occur anywhere else in any of my other usr.lib libraries, classes, or subpalettes. I have edited that library, class, and rewritten the mnu file over trying to clear it out, but no luck. 

 

WHAT THE HECK IS THIS THING?!?! Smiley Frustrated

BTW, if anyone could point me to any documentation that explains it, that would be most excellent. I'd like to read it firsthand.

 

Thanks 1E6!

This sounds like an issue described in CAR 185059 where VIs belonging to a class inside an lvlib have a red X on their palette icons.  It has been fixed in LabVIEW 2012.

Seems reasonable. Weird though, I have a ton of other classes in other lvlibs and none of them do this. I checked!
