The documentation guidelines for LV state, each control on the front panel should contain a tip strip and description. Further, the description
should contain the type of the controls (for the automatic html help file generation which does not process the type shown in the context help) and
the value range. As this is a quite tedious task to complete i just thinked about writing a vi which gets all fp control references, read out their type
and value range and then update their tip strips. Then functional information can be added after the programmatic information was filled. However when looking through all the properties of the property nodes of the controls contained in the front panel or pane respectively i could not find something like this. I doubt i used the correct order of getting the references so that probably i'm in the wrong subclass of references.
Anybody whos experienced with scripting ?

You can read this
But "numeric" type for all number types (int, uint, dbl...). So you may need add some analysis for this type. Also you will need recursive analysis for clusters.
