Unknown run arrow

cw_muse · ‎11-05-2018

I ran a script in python that calls a DLL that runs Labview and I came upon this error arrow that I have not encountered before. Does anyone what this arrow is indicating?

It means the VI is running.

It means that it is loaded into memory and is ready to run. Another VI is running somewhere on your computer that calls this as a subVI. I'm guessing your Python script is a "fire-and-forget" script that doesn't close down LabVIEW after it's done.

Yes, the triple black arrow indicates running, this one indicates waiting to run. The simple answer is: hover your mouse over it and find out 🙂
