Hi,
I'm running established sequences (TS3.5) and vi's (LV8.2) in Teststand 4.2 and Labview 2009.
During sequence execution in the Editor environment, vi's are called which display simple yes/no
user controls.
I am finding that when the Labview step is called the controls are only appearing briefly, if at all.
The execution appears to have entered Labview waiting for a control to be operated, but
the only way forward seems to be termination of the sequence.
On termination, the controls immediately appear allowing selection, but on doing so the sequence
does terminate normally.
There are 2 vi's, the 1st is called early and has only shown this problem rarely,
but the 2nd called later in the sequence always displays this problem.
Another vi which displays a progress bar, executes in a separate thread without problems.
We also notice that the additional task on the task bar does not appear as normal when
the vi's are called.
Any ideas why the controls are not displayed until sequence termination, please ?
thanks,
Gary.

Make sure you are checking the "Show Front Panel" checkbox on the Module specification panel. Not having that checked is the most likely explanation.
Hope this helps,
