Can I print VI names along with the icons in the hierarchy print?

[bob.mccowan@cpii.com]

When printing the documentation a diagram of the VI hierarchy prints. Is there a way to get each of the VIs to have it's name or path printed in this diagram?

Bob,

When you print the Hierarchy, you can also print out a list of the subVIs as well. This will give you the path information you are looking for, just not on the hierarchy window. If that is absolutely what you need, then you may have to create this manually.

Thank you for this suggestion. It has been suggested before and is under consideration for a future version of LabVIEW.

Try using VI Server to list the VI's in memory, and their paths.

I assume you are doing this to list the contents of a project. The above method will give you a list of all VIs in memory, so all you have to do is run it while your project (exclusively) is open. You will have to be sure you know which VIs belong to this tool so you can subtract them out by checking the status.

There is probably an easier way, though I am not sure if the SCC module allows printing of the contents of a project. I know that other Source Code Control programs do allow this. Anyway, if you were to enter your project into a SCC program, you would be able to monitor and follow the contents of the project, and not have to worry about things like this.

Good luck.
