shared variable broken

I often use shared variables based on a clustered custom control, to store data in an organised way.  What I am finding to be really annoying is that the calling VI sometimes complains of a broken variable, but, when I open the variable there is no clue as to what the problem is.   In fact the problem turned out to be that the custom control had unapplied changes but it took me a bit of experimenting around to find this.    What would be really handy would be if the shared variable form had a broken arrow on it (as with a VI)  so that the error could be followed on to  the custom control form, and then a similar broken arrow on the custom control form.

Hi Barnsey 

 

Sorry for the wait. This sounds like something you might want to post in the LabVIEW idea exchange. This is where customers can make suggestions to R&D and see them get implemented in patches or newer versions of NI software. I've attached a link below.

Many Thanks
