Loosing defaults

[Urs Bögli]

I use a strict type definition for a cluster. Recently I had to add an item to the cluster.
Afterwards I realized I've lost all my default values. I would expect to have '0' as the default of
the new numerical control and the old default values for the controls in the cluster I had before.
(Labview 5.01)
Bug or marketing decision?

Best Regards

I'm running 6.1 and I don't see the same behavior. I created a strict type definition, set various defaults, and the saved it. Then I incorporated this into a VI and saved it. Then I opened up the Control and added another object to the cluster and saved it. The defaults that I originally had set were still valid. This may be something they updated in later versions?

Sorry I've not described my observation exactly enough.
I've defined a strict type cluster. It is used on several occasions. An array of this cluster is
used to store upper and lower limits to these values. These 'default' values' got lost when I
added an item to the cluster definition.
