state diagram toolkit chrashes LabVIEW

[cs42]

Hi,

we just received out quarterly NI Developer Suite Prof. Control Ed. CDs. And we were very happy to see the state diagram toolkit included!

But now I want to test and LV (7.0, German) crashes realy often. The editing of the state diagram works fine but when doing any other thing you're in great risk to crash LabVIEW, though!

It happens when

• placing new controls on front panel,
• editing controls,
• doing a right mouse click on front panel or block diagram,
• saving a vi,
• it just can happen anytime.

Theses action don't lead to a crash always, but so often that you can't work anymore! Right now I'm just testing very simple things, nothing advanced ye
t.

Does anyone have a hint? I didn't see any complains like that in the forum...

Thanks,
Carsten

hello carsten,

does the crash of LabVIEW show any errors or does it only disappear?
did you try the repair function in the software configuration utility of windows?

Hello Robert,

I just got a message like "Did you know that LabVIEW just crash, did you?". But it's weird, right now these problems disappeared. It could be that I just forgot a neccessary reboot, but I don't have the time to try this and that to find the exact problem -- as long as it works I'm pretty happy with it.

Now the only problem is, that I can't build an application with the state diagram code locked. After unlocking the code, the application is built fine.

Regards,
Carsten

hello carsten,

this is resolved in LabVIEW 7.1;
there you can also build applications with locked code.
