Find + Replace text (string constant) doesn't work for Statechart module VIs

[JKSH]

Hello,

I was trying to do a mass find+replace of a string in my code. Using Ctrl+F, LabVIEW 2012 correctly locates all the places where this string exists, including inside Statechart Guards which have paths in this form:

XYZ.lvsc:Diagram.vi/Transition:Guard - Diagram, Transition, Data/Part

However, when I specified a replacement string and click "Replace All", only the instances in "normal" VIs got replaced -- the instances in my Statecharts were unchanged.

What's happening? Is there something else I must do?

Thanks in advance.

It sounds like the way find and replace is implemented in LabVIEW doesn't include those. You could try to replace on just the statechart and see if that makes a difference, but it may just not work.

Hi Tim,

I was afraid that might be the case. Thanks for confirming, nonetheless.
