menubar CVI O/S XP

[Jabil_Brugge]

I use CVI 7.1

1. When my application works on a XP machine SP2, I see that the menubar background color is white
on a W2000 machine it is correct.The possible solution "... Performance Options " find here don't work.
How can i correct it ?

2. When I mark the Embed Project.UIRs checkbox under BUILD -> Target Settings and make a distribution kit then i
get an error code :-94 asking for the menubar ? What do i wrong or isn't this possible or ..

3. Is there a possibility to select your own destination folder when creating the distribution kit,now you can
only select it out of a dropdown box?

Hi,

1. The color of the Menubar comes from the selected scheme of the OS. Maybe you can try to change the Display Settings in the control panel or have a play around with the schemes but this will change the menu color for all windows on the system.
There was a similar issue with LabVIEw once and that was fixed by logging in as a local administrator. Maybe you can give that a try too.

2. You get this error when the menubar uir is not in the same directory as the exe file. I've tested it with the following files (menutest.zip)and it works just fine. Check the differences with your application.

The goal is that all the *.uir files must be in the same directory as the
*.exe file from your application. Or you have to insert the full path from
you *.uir file in LoadPanel-Function as first argument.

3. When you create the installer you can still browse in the wizard to your own destination folder, if I'm not mistaking. The ones you select before the build are just default ones. You can still change while going trough the wizard. You can not add your own directory into that list.
