TestStand UI SequenceView Control - Description and tips

[Madottati]

Hello,

I create a custom TS UI in LabVIEW. I want to enable users to edit sequences, so I placed a SequenceViewControl AcriveX control on the front panel.

I also register a CreateContextMenu callback to create Right-Click popup menu to edit the sequences. The problem is, most of the time when I right click on the SequenceView control, I get "Description and tips" instead of the context menu. Sometimes I get the context menu.

How to disable showing Description and tips?

Is there any reason you're making a Custom Context Menu to do this? The shipping full featured OI has the Right-Click popup menu to edit sequences as long as it's launced in editor mode.

Context Menu's can be tricky - i'd highly recommend reading through this tutorial if you haven't already. Overall, i'd start by looking in your CreateContextMenu callback vi to make sure the commands are being created and inserted properly.

Hope this helps,
