Hello, I have a code with several SubVIs, each one with multiple objects. I would like to group all objects' references in one single source in order to have access to objects' properties by means of property nodes in other VIs. Since I have one Reference Cluster (which is populated with real references as SubVI run) for each SubVI, I would like to merge all these reference clusters into one. Nevertheless, when I do that I lose all labels of the objects. Is there a way to merge multiple reference clusters into one and keep objects labels? See attached picture for information. I just used an example how dynamic events can be used to trigger events across VIs (dynamic events are crucial for my code). Method A shows the regular way to get the references from two different reference clusters. As you can see the labels are kept. On method B I try to make things easier, and instead of having multiples "unbundle by name", I just convert the clusters to arrays, use a build array function to concatenate all references into one single array, and them convert the array back to a cluster. Nevertheless, by doing that labels are not kept. Thanks. Dan07

Hello All,

What solved this issue was replacing the build array by a bundle function. In other words, building a cluster is better than building an array when you want to combine to references clusters into one.

Thanks.
