How to prevent the LabVIEW about dialog from being available from the menu on a MAC built LV app.

[sjp]

I have a LV application that I have built with the application builder for MAC.  When I run this app, the menu has an entry for each menu item I specified along with an entry that matches my applications name.  If I select the entry that matches my app name and then hit about, The about LabVIEW  dialog is displayed.  I have not been able to find a way to either suppress this behavior or redirect it to a VI to display about information related to my application.  Ideally I can just get rid of it since it makes no sense to my customers as to why a LabVIEW dialog would appear when they would expect to get information on my application.

I am using:

LabVIEW  2010

App builder for MAC

OSX 10.5.8

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi sjp,

maybe that's the MAC way to ensure your LicenseAgreement, that you accepted when using LabVIEW:
