vi scripting

[SivaShankar]

I have added two items to tools menu in LabVIEW by placing the VIs in "..\LabVIEW 2014\project" folder. Now how can I disable/fadeout one of the item? Is there any way to do it programmatically?

There is currently no way to manipulate the appearance of items in the Tools menu that are based on VIs in the project folder.

If you have some tool and you want it to be somewhat context aware, you might want to look into QuickDrop shortcuts, or the right click framework built into LabVIEW 2015.

Or you can have the option enabled in the tools menu, but then when you run it it might detect that it should be greyed out and tell you, or not allow you to do anything.
