write bmp help inconsistent

[mstaylor97]

In labview 2011, the help reference on the "write bmp" vi is different than what is shown in the block diagram context help dialogue for the necessary data types.  The help reference has the first (2) elements in the cluster as U16 and U8, image type and image depth, respectively.  However, the context help shows these both as I32 (i just connected a broken wire to the "image" input on the write bmp icon in the bd, and turned on the context help, which displays the expected data for that input). 

Which is correct?

The function is correct, the detailed help file associated with that function is wrong.

Interestingly, the Read BMP help file shows the correct datatypes.

Good catch!  Someone from NI will probably issue a CAR# to have the documentation corrected.

As RavensFan said, good catch! CAR #433213 filed. Echoing RavensFan, the function and context help is correct.
