Bug Report: Comment Arrow Gone AWOL

It started with this:

 

Screen Shot 2014-07-21 at 16.55.29.png

 

I grabbed the comment arrow and... the following happened.

In other words, if the lower right corner of a free label s hidden by another object, funny (or not, dependind how urgent matters are) things happen.

I personally think that belongs to the litany of bugs to be fixed with this new feature.

 

Tested in LV 2013 SP1 62 bits running on Windows 7 64 bits.

In fact, I'd hazard to say that this is one reason why one may want the arrow to be potentially pulled from any corner of the label.

There's your problem.  You are missing two bits.  I suggest you repair your install.  😉

 

I guess probably the corner arrow shouldn't even be showing in this case.  What do you think?

The forums Gremlins who removed one of my posts in another thread have removed two bits from my LabVIEW version...

 

In general, I think LV has many issues with hidden objects, sometimes preventing them to be hidden, sometimes partially allowing it, sometimes making them completely impossible to find.
