Yes, there is documentation on these properties. If you open LabVIEW help and search for VI Properties, you can select VI Properties, which shows up about 10 down on the list, oddly enough. Anyway, click on that and it gives you a list of all the properties that can be changed in that menu. About 12 down on this list is Execution: Preferred Execution System (right about it is Execution: Is Reentrant which may come in handy too). Click on details and then click on "Using LabVIEW to create multi-threaded VI's for maximum performance and reliability", which brings up an Adobe document. Page 5 of this document explains the User Interface execution property.
