What should I Name This VI?

Solved!
Go to solution

I need to find the path that defines the instance of a control.  The controls could be either TypeDef'd, or they could be instances of XControls.  I created a VI that does that, but I can't think of a good name for it.

Copout.  Get back in there and find a name!  😄

 

Seriously, though, finding a name for a VI is something I always dread.  I don't have name for this; in fact, I'm running away from this topic.  😄

I like to name my VI's after former Presidents and world leaders... 😛

 

Right off the top of my head: DefConPath.vi

Oops.  That original VI had an unclosed VI reference; and some other unnecessary clutter.  Also, while I was cleaning it up, I found a much cleaner way to do it.  Here is the improved version.
