Programmatically Appling LVLib Icons to All VIs

[SreeRanjani]

Hi All,

I want to programmatically change icons of all the VIs in a LVLib, if I use the "Apply Icons to Existing VI items" method, i get a popup for saving the VIs,is there any way to programmatically avoid this popup or any other way in which I can apply the icons to all VIs of a LVLib.

Thanks and Regards,

Sree

You can use the invoke node for Save Instrument.  Of course I am curious on why you would want to edit anything under the VI.lib.  This is sorta like wanting to change Windows DLLs found under System32, it is generally a bad idea, that is unless you put the files there and know what you are doing.

Read the original post a little closer.  The OP wants to set the icons for a LVLIB they created.  There is no mention of changing anything inside of vi.lib.

I personally just use the Apply To All Items.  Then there is just the Save-All option on the save dialog.

Ahh yes my mistake.  My brain saw LVLIB and thought it was vi.lib.

Thank You both for replying

I am using the "Apply Icons to Existing VI items" method now with the "Save All" pop up, another method which I tried is changing the Icons of all the VIs in LVLib and saving it individually which seems to work out but it is time consuming than the previous method.
