Class Specifier Constant found twice

[Odd_Modem]

Here is a simple VI in LabVIEW 2012. It is casting to a more specific class and is using a class specifier constant. If I select the class specifier constant and choose Find from the menu the find results show two items that point to the same obect on the block diagram. Why does this happen? At the very least I would have to divide by two in order to know how many class specifier constants are in my program. Is this a bug?

I can't open the VI, but is it possible you actually do have two, one on top of the other? That should be easy enough to check by selecting it (without dragging!) and then moving it.

If you copy it, do you do then get three results?

[Odd_Modem]

The implication is that 'Find' is working correctly and that there is a bug in 'Class Specifier Constant'.

[Odd_Modem]

It's easy enough to make the experiment. Here I dropped down three constants and configured two. Select one of the objects and then goto find in the menu. Three objects produced six search results where the last object added to the block diagram were given first and second place in the listing.

I wish my wallet would work this way; go in for a Hamilton and come out with a Jefferson. hehehe

I think you mean Washington not Hamilton. but exchange for a twenty?

[Odd_Modem]

I see that this behavior exists in LabVIEW 8.5.1, so I guess it's not an important thing to fix. Presumably it has always existed as a 'feature'. Whatever...

Maybe put Hamilton in and take out a Jackson.

[JÞB]

Well, Jefferson is on the $2-- so for those playing in LSD (British for pounds, sheckles and pence)

US denominations ("Paper" currency)

Washington = $1

Jefferson = $2

Lincoln = $5

Hamilton = $10

Jackson = $20

Grant = $50

Those patriots each served as POTUS

Benjamin Franklin = $100

If you have denominations of US currency larger than that in your wallet frequently--- well, you probably do not program in LabVIEW for a living  But, feel free to drop me a line and I can help with your LabVIEW needs to assist your legal operations.
