VI breaks during cleanup

Hi everyone!

 

I have a VI which breaks if I clean it up with the embedded solution (hitting Ctrl + U). I have found out that if the VI's name is short enough, then this does not occur. Also, if I remove all broken wires (Ctrl + B), it fixes the VI and cleaning up again results the same error. Can you confirm it please? I have attached the necessary files to reproduce the issue.

 

I'm using LabVIEW 2018, 64-bit version.

Yes, same observation in 2018 32bit. (Only happens if the subVI label is shown.)

Wow!  This is the first I've heard of cleanup breaking things and not being the result of cleanup going nutzo because of a humongous BD.  Congrats on breaking the tool.  😄

That's nothing.  Open the attached VI, select just the inner structure, then click cleanup.  It crashes LabVIEW completely.

Works with any two structures, any variable type.  The important thing is 2 nested structures, a comment in the middle, pointed at a terminal, then just select the inner structure for cleanup.
