is there any working way to share data between XControls and another VI without using value-property-nodes?
The problem is that i have an XControl displaying and modifying data and another VI that also modifies and reads the data (concurrent access is no problem here).
Using references and the value-property-nodes does not work because i have a graph with a large dataset in another XCtrl and thus the property-node blocks the execution thread if you zoom/resize the graph. Using shared variables does not work because of the different contexts the XCtrl and the VI are running in (even with network-published ones this did not work).
Hi Thorsten,
maybe using a FGV (functional global variable) will help you. It consists of an uninitialized shift register which contains the data of your XControl.
With this, you can read and write to the FGV in multiple caller VIs without the use of property nodes.

Thanks for your efforts, but this wasn't exactly what I was looking for.
I've now build a small example of what i want to do and this is sadly also not working with functional global variables.

Does anyone known the cause why an XControl sometimes is hanging in the development environment system.
