LabVIEW
Right-click menu "Help For ..." on property or invoke node crashes LabVIEW 2024 Q3
Hi everyone,
While developing with LabVIEW 2024 Q3 (64bit), I am frequently struck by the malfunction of the new help system.
Apart from the numerous complaints already posted by others here, an annoying part for me is the right-click menu "Help For ..." on property/invoke nodes either crashing LabVIEW, loading a "not found" page or doing nothing at all.
I performed a test with all the class hierarchies available to me:
Here for example with property "Class Identifier" of class "Variable Object" from class hierarchy "Variable":
After doing a right-click > "Help For ..." on a property node configured with one of the classes of each class hierarchy, I obtained these results:
VISA: Nothing happens
IVI: Nothing happens
XML Parser: CRASH
Data Exchange: CRASH
Variable: CRASH
NI DataFinder: "Not Found" / "No Results"
DataSocket: "Not Found" / "No Results"
Remark 1: Online and offline helps have the same effects.
Remark 2: These right-click menu issues are, for the most part, not present in LabVIEW 2023
Regards,
Raphaël.
