Only one Vi Debugging with LVOOP

When I try to do that in my pop-up menu code, I always get Error 91 out of "Variant to Array".

Probing the "Value" variant, it looks good:

'TestFrame Light Settings.lvclass': TestFrame Light Settings.lvclass [LabVIEW Class]

TestFrame Light Settings.lvclass

I was able to work around that.  But now this piece of test code throws error 1106,  Why?

Not sure, that seems to be no problem in a VI that's in the normal context..

Here's my attempt.  It doesn't work, and I can't figure out how to fix it.

To try it:

1. Figure out where LabVIEW's default data directory is
2. Put the attached .llb in “<default data directory> \PopupMenus\edit time panel and diagram\
3. Start (or close and restart) LabVIEW
4. Open a VI with an LVClass object on the front panel
5. Right-click on the object
6. Select "Edit Object Data..."
7. When the dialog box opens, click on "Apply Changes"

The code will pause at a breakpoint in "Execute Edit Object Data,vi".  The error occurs after that (1106 or 1527).  Notice that the code tries every possible context; they all fail.

There's a missing VI (Edit Object Data Presenter.vi, or something like that)...

When I open it, nothing is missing.

OK.  Fixed that.

I can't get it working either. At least not with XML.

I'm pretty sure it's something in LabVIEW preventing this.

Flattened data seems to work. I have only tried this with copy-paring data, so not with automated string manipulation. However, copy-paste flattened data works, while copy-pasting XML doesn't.

OK.  Do you have anything in your bag of tricks to convert flattened data between cluster and class?

I'll have to dig. Deep.

I'm sure OpenG has tools for that (never used them though).

IIRC, from an cluster to an array  of variants to flattened data back to the cluster isn't that hard.

I can't remember I ever had to decorate a cluster back to a class, back to a variant (if that's needed).
