I'm using LabVIEW 2016 to develop a simple user interface for executing test sequences created in TestStand 2016, and I'd like to use the ReportView Control in this user interface. Unfortunately, the control remains blank when I run test sequences through the user interface.
In my debugging I tried executing the "Connecting UI Controls Example" in TestStand, and the ReportView Control in this example also remains blank when executing the example test sequence.
Am I overlooking a setting somewhere in TestStand that is preventing this control from populating? The "Report" output is enabled in the TestStand Results Processing settings, for what it's worth.
Thanks,
Andrew

And you DO get a report file?
Which process model are you using?

Good question, looks like you're on to something. When I execute the sequence file in the development environment, a report is generated. When I execute it via the user interface, however, a report is not generated (i.e. there's nothing to display in the ReportView Control). I'm using the Sequential process model.

Does your custom UI modify configuration settings of TS?
How does the default UI examples work on this?

Just updating this thread..
I was using the "Basic User Interface.lvproj" from the "Examples" workspace in TestStand, and I was trying to add the ReportView control to this example.
What I've done instead, and had success with, is use the full-featured operator UI located in C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\TestStand 2016 (32-bit)\UserInterfaces\Full-Featured\LabVIEW.
This example already has the ReportView control built into it, and everything functions as I want it to. I believe the issue I was running into on the basic user interface example was that the sequence file wouldn't actually complete its cleanup (and the report wouldn't generate).
