BUG: LV crashes when autocreating controls/indicators of free wire

Solved!
Go to solution

A cowworker clicks a lot while thinking often creating wires. These are most often not connected to anything and the new autocreate controls (which is a neat idea) don't know what to create and spins crazy and crashes LV.

Can it be turned off?

A coworker of mine has a more annoying habit of moving things around while thinking, then putting them back and SAVING it.  That used to work back in the days before versioning software (although even then this was not considered good practices), and of course when I review changes, I have to ask about the VI that changed but wasn't captured in the change log.  Not to mention the space wasted by committing a file that didn't need to be committed.

I do that (moving while thinking, not the saving per se). There's a time for that. When developing in parallel, it's not the time to do that, unless it's your part of the code to deal with.

Sorry, the annoying part was the saving, not the moving.  I understand the moving part.  It directs your attention to each part of the code you are moving around, kind of like a spotlight.

I got that. You won't even notice without the save.

No ini-key to stop this action, or something?

This one may be:

DoubleClickWhenWiringCreation=False

?
