I think he needs 100 inch projection system to handle this one. Or maybe an IMax.

Re: Nightmare...

Sorry, I just mutiliated a famous little quote from Jaws.

 

BRODY: You're gonna need a bigger boat screen.

Good luck with that task. Maybe the diagram cleanup button can get you partially there.

Re: Nightmare...

What kind of video drivers do you need to run LV on IMAX?

Re: Nightmare...

What is really interesting is that at meetings, everything is beautiful, works and there are no surprises.  Demos show how lovely everything works.

 

Then reality...

 

 

 

I'm taking a deep breath and going after all the monsters that may lurke in the dark places throughout the mazes on the block diagram.  I hope not to have to use the deletazoid sword too often but shall bring ample supply of majic potion along with the trusty Swiss Army Selectatool for the journey.

 

Good tidings to everyone..  I shall come up for a breath of Fresh-Aire at regular intervals.  I hope to rescue the fair Princess Worksawell by then end of the day.   Spagetti is on the menu for lunch.  Showers and a chance of meatballs are on the forecast for dinner.

That would actually be fun to see what the diagram clean up did with that. It would probably give a pop up that said got to hell you got yourself into this mess you figuer it out. :smileyhappy:

Re: Nightmare...

I had to do something similar to this except for the one I was doing was written in LV 2.0 and was on a MAC and I was updating the system to LV 8.6. It was not fun. Oh did I mention I could barely see anything on the MAC because the monitor was going out on it. I just mostly wrote the system from scratch. As for 2.0 it was pretty neat to see it still running.
