Is there a way to copy the Conditional Disable properties from one project to another?

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a some code in a project that I want to hand off to a colleague and want to make a new 'scaled' down project that has only a few subvis in it.  I don't necessarily want or need him to have the entire project, but only access to a select few.  Is there a way to copy the conditional disable properties from one project to another?

 

Thanks,

The easiest way to do what you are describing would probably be to duplicate your project (Save As....»Duplicate Project Hierarchy). Then in the copy you can simply delete the components you don't want others to access.

 

Let me know if this is what you are looking to do.

Thanks Tanya, I kind of figured that would be the case.  I thought something easier would save me the aggravation of going through my project on a vi by vi basis and removing the un-needed subvis.

 

So it begs the question, what benefit does the 'Duplicate hierarchy to new location' provide?  I mean if I have to copy the entire project anyway.

If you open the .lvproj with a text editor like Notepad one of the very first properties is "CCSymbols" (typo?), you can copy the contents of that tag from one project file to another.

Thanks, that works, but I couldn't get the symbols to show up in the 'Project' 'Properties'...
