Find selected instances of polymorphic vi

[ChristophHS]

Hi,

Is it possible to find all instances of a polymorpic vi that specific vi?

I have a database object (FGV + variant. Data elements are stored by name as variant attributes). To abstract data access and also to prevent typos I have get- and set- vis for each element wrapping the FPV.

To make coding easier all get- and set- vis are bundled in a polymorphic vi.

It's working nicely and choosing the data-object of interest by dropdown of the polymorphic vi is nice. But now I realized there I cannot find all instances that e.g. write a specific data element.

Makes sense? Hope so.

Thank you

Hi Christoph,

in the VI hierarchy window you should see your polymorphic VI with its "child" instances.

You can right-click the "child" and select "Find all instances":

SUPER!  I always forget the hierarchy window.
