Decoration labels

Solved!
Go to solution

Hmm, what if you turn the decoration references to Variants and add use Set Attribute? Then you have something to search for.

This doesn't change much from using index constants directly, because attributes would not be saved with the vi.

The RFC plugin suggested by tst seems to be the solution, however I don't have VIPM installed so I can't test it right away.

You don't need VIPM. Rename the vip file to zip and you can extract the VIs from it. Of course, you will have to replace RCF stuff with the relevant code, but that should be relatively easy.

 

The plugin uses tags, which do get saved with the VI, so that does allow you to search by name.

 

 

As for the order in the list, there are some lists in LV which list items by reverse Z-order (such as the Selection List[] property). In the case of decorations, this even makes sense, because you can't tab to a decoration.

OK, I will try to work it out.

Thank you to all for the help.
