Compiled VI not keeping enviromental settings from development code

[NToombes]

Hi

Developed an application which amongst other things has a string indicator alerting the user to some relavent information. I have set the indicator to blink. The default colour for the blink was red but went into the enviromental settings and changed it to green and all worked ok.

I have now compiled the code but the blinking colour has gone back to red and my boss is telling me it must be green! How do I transfter the settings I make to the "enviroment" settings into the compiled code.

Edit the application ini file that was created when you built it. The application does not use the LabVIEW ini file.

Hi

Thankyou for your reply. I have looked in the .ini file but what do I edit??

Do I have to add an entry for blinking colour? Quite suprised these things dont get exported into your compiled code.

All code is compiled, with our without building an application and yes you have to add an entry for blinking. Look at the LabVIEW ini file for the syntax.
