Setting symbol for conditional disable without using project

Hi,

 

I want to set new symbol for Conditional Disable structure without having the VI in a project( that is without using project).  Can anyone suggest ways to achieve this functionality?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Keerthana,

 

Can anyone suggest ways to achieve this functionality?

Put the VI in a project!

 

The symbols for the Disable structure are configured and stored in the project. So you need to put the VI in a project.

Best regards,
GerdW

You'd probably need to get the Application.Default Project (a brown property node, requiring scripting and some ini file keys). Then get it's root, and modify it's "CCSymbols" tag. Then, it might not work... Haven't tested this. It would be rowing against the stream (aka you shouldn't do this).

 

If you don't understand any\all of this, you're probably better off adding the VI to a project. That's what I would do.

 

Why do you (think you) need this? E.g. what's the use case? A normal disabled case structure or a case structure might be a more useful alternative.
