Labview logo

[nogoodreason]

I think that Labview needs to change their logo, because it shows a picture of a red line and a blue line going in to an addition block. Everybody knows that when you add red and blue you get purple. come on guys.

I think they should first get rid of the Sequence Structure in the logo, which they already partially did. If we view the red as orange, it is correct: DBL + Int = DBL.

What no coercion dot?  What is this LabVIEW 2? 

(I honestly don't know if coercion dots were in LabVIEW 2)

I helped a new department get started and we needed a logo.

The company was too cheap to hire an ad agency so we had a contest.

That's brilliant... Works every time.

Although after watching Mad Men I'm not sure I would give them my money, either.

Who says that's an Add primitive? That's just a VI that uses the same icon. And those wires going in? There's no coercion because those are two LabVIEW classes whose wire appearance has been customized. And that supposed "sequence structure"? That's just a pasted image sitting behind the code. You can tell because there are no tunnels.

I don't know what you're all talking about. Clearly it's just two channel wires being added together.

Well, that's the 2016 patch. The great secret is that we've actually updated the logo every release of LabVIEW, but in a way that is completely transparent to our users. It was only an Add primitive in LV  1.0. It was a reentrant VI by 2.0. 🙂

I take it it's now set to Run when opened?

I'd also like to think that any PNGs of the logo are actually VI snippets...if you drag them onto the block diagram they release the *true* power of LabVIEW.
