Labview 2017 double menubar bug

Hi all,

 

I switched this week from Labview 2012 to Labview 2017 and discovered a little bug which was not there before.

When choosing at 'properties --> Window run-time position' a centered position with a fixed panel size like 1042x635 an additional menu bar is drawn next to the custom menu bar when entering the run-time mode in the developer. The same behaviour can be also seen in build .exe versions. Setting the panel size to Use current panel size in combination with the centered position will result in the expected single menu bar as shown here below. This behaviour is also present when creating a new Labview 2017 vi.

Hi Marco,

 

why don't you switch off the (default) menu in the VI properties?

In your image there is a checkmark at "show menu bar"…

Best regards,

Disabling the checkmark at show menu bar also disables the custom menu bars as shown here below.

Hi Marco,

 

I was fooled by the different look of your user menu bar…
