edit mode

Hi all

I am learning the XControl :examples/general/xcontrols/ "Dual Mode Thermometer".

And the file Facade BlockDiagram is in Run mode.

I can't to change to Edit mode.

Why?

With respect

Iskander,

 

the facade cannot be altered as long as it is in use by another vi. If you close all VIs using the Xcontrol, the facade will leave runmode automatically.

 

hope this helps,

Norbert

If you have a VI open that has the XControl on it's FP or a strict type reference to the XControl you will not be able to edit it. (Prevents huge race conditions.)

So close all VI owning the XControl. If you right click on the XControl in the project window you have an option 'Why is Library locked?' that should point you to the owning VIs.
