VI being saved as template name

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

I recently switched to LabVIEW 2017 and am running into a weird problem I never encountered before. A lot of the VIs I make are from a template, and in this case it is the `SubVI with Error Handling` template. When I make the VI, the name of it at the top of the window is `SubVI with Error Handling [Test.vi]'. How can I change it so it is not the template name and only the VI name? I'm making a few templates of my own, and when I save them and the try to make a new VI with my custom templates, it will have the name `SubVI with Error Handling` instead of `Test` which is what I name it.

Go into VI options and reset the window title from custom to using the file name.

 

(Your file name is already "test.vi")

 

Currently posting by phone, will provide more details later...

OK, the right place is:

 

VI properties...Windows Appearance...Windows Title.

Place a check-mark at:  [ ] same as VI name
