Rescan the user.lib folder w/o re-starting LabVIEW?

Solved!

Does anyone know if there is a way to do this so that the tool palettes are refreshed if I place a new VI in my user.lib folder?

 

Thanks!

 

I'm in LabVIEW 2009 SP1

There's an Application class method which refreshes the palettes. I think it's available publicly, but if not, you should be able to access it by installing the scripting API.

Not sure if it requires scripting or not.  I had already installed scripting so I'm not sure...

In LV2009+ the property/invoke node turns baby blue if it requires scripting to be installed.

There is an item in the application palette that will activate this function, it's called refresh palettes:
