Quick Drop and Class Name

[Darren]

I'll talk to LabVIEW R&D and see if I can make sense of the behavior. In the meantime, as you experiment, you don't need to restart LabVIEW every time you want to test a palette change. You can call the 'Refresh Palettes' method of the Application class.

Was there any feedback from LV R&D on this?

Quick drop seems work better in a Project. E.g. for finding such VIs.

Unfortunately no, I wasn't able to gather any more information about this behavior.

Thanks, that's a shame.

In this case I decided to prefix the functions in the library rather than add the libraries (which are in vi.lib) into the project to take advantage of the better quick drop as @Yamaeda pointed out.

Another benefit of the prefix is that it also easily gives you a way to browse the APIs of a lib through quick drop, though I do agree that prefixes on file names like that are not the prettiest....
