I have a LV6i stand alone application on a B&W Mac G3, MacOS8.6 which has lost all the 3D cosm

etics of all front panel objects when moved away from the original LV folder. Copying the LVRun-Time.shlb helps to start the application but the FP objects remain flat. What resources are needed to get them back in a stand alone application for the MacOS ?Happy wireworks

What resources are needed to get them back in a stand alone application for the MacOS ?Copying the mesaPPC.shlb should take care of the problem. The best solution would be to include
the Shared Libraries folder as "Support Files" when building your application.

In my case they work but have lost all LV6i graphic of FP objects and all FP's look ugly. The problem is still unresolved and reveals overall instability.

What resources are needed to get them back in a stand alone application for the MacOS ?The solution to this problem is that you need to install the LabVIEW
Run-Time Engine on the machine where you are running your application.
Starting with LabVIEW 6i, all platforms require the presence of the LabVIEW
Run-Time Engine in order to run LabVIEW-built applications and shared
libraries. Previously, this was a requirement only on the Windows platform.

The LabVIEW Run-Time Engine is more than just a run-time library. It is
composed of the many files that are required to successfuly run a LabVIEW
application or library, including items like 3D model files. The reason your
controls are drawing flat is that the 3D model files are not present on your
machine since you do not have the Run-Time Engine installed.

This requirement is describe
d in the online help for the Build Application
or Shared Library dialog. You can access the online help by clicking on the
"Help" button on that dialog.
