LabVIEW programming aids

I almost posted it in this thread, but figured it would be more appropriate here.

(For context, I work with several people who abuse stacked sequence structures.  I figured I'd help them out...)

This will be a little less disruptive...

I don't know.  Removing a flat sequence might take longer to fix than rewriting the entire program from scratch....

Try crosrulz codeSmiley Wink

There is no code loss! It simply converts the SSS th a FSS then removes the FSS leaving the code within the frames intact.

Y'all should use Traverse for GObjects.vi instead of AllObjs[] if you want to nail Stacked Sequences on nested diagrams too.

 

Or upgrade to LabVIEW 2014 or later, where we removed Stacked Sequences from Quick Drop/palettes altogether. 😉

Sadly, they found the workaround 😞  Place flat, convert to stacked!

You know, I started making a version that does that, and it turns out that TRef Traverse.vi has a Stacked Sequence Structure in it!  Bad Darren!  Granted, it is a single frame just to perform a Class Operator.Remove regardless of an upstream error.  But still.  Maybe NI should change it to a Flat Sequence Structure...
