Suppress VI search dialog

[Saranbalu]

Is there any way to suppress the VI search dialog (example shown below) through some setting in application's ini file?

Thanks,

Saranya

I am not exactly getting the meaning of "suppress" here.

[Saranbalu]

I meant to hide the dialog

You can prevent the dialog's appearing by making sure LabVIEW knows where all the dependencies are for the VI you're opening. Suppressing the search action will give you an open VI that you can't run; suppressing the appearance of the dialog will not result in your VI opening any faster.

If I am not mistaken, this shows up when loading large VIs with many dependancies although it is not actually 'searching' for any.

I seem to remember reading somewhere, that there is a way to do this... but it may be for an executable.  I don't remember, and cannot lay my hands on it.

Two ideas come to mind. I'll let y'all nock them down.

Mass-compile so LV rembers where they are.

Use a loader to load the app by opening all of the VIs from the bottom up so that the serach never hapens because the sub-VIs are loaded before their callers.

I am calling some VIs dynamically from my application. At that time, this search dialog shows up if the loading takes time. I know that this will not give any performance improvement. But just to avoid the annoyance, I don't want this dialog to show up.

Open the sub-VIs from the bottom up, then open the dynamic VI you are after.

If working with VI Server in order to load subvis dynamically, you can use the option 0x20 at the "Open VI Reference" in order to suppress the load dialog. This does not suppress the dialog for browsing to missing components if the subvi is not executable due to missing subcomponents....

hope this helps,

If I got you correctly, you will need a kind of 'splash screen' (try to search for that keyword, also on LAVA).

I myself took the code from the OpenG builder to make my own splash screen that loads the top-level vi dynamically via vi server.
