Finding an xcontrol

[craige]

If i open a VI without the use of a Project and the VI contains an XControl how do I:

A) Know that the control I'm looking at is an Xcontrol ?

and

B) Navigate to the *.xctl file in order to make changes to this XControl?

For example, open the "Run Dual Mode Thermometer XControl.vi". I have no way of knowing the controls used in this example are XControl nor can I find a path or navigate to the *.xctl file

Thank you!

On the Control or Terminal you can Right-Click -> Advanced -> Show Diagram to see the XControl Facade.  From the Facade you can View -> Browse Relationships -> This VI's XControl.

To know it is an XControl you can use Icon view for the terminals, or View the Hierarchy to find all instances of the selected XControls.
