LabVIEW 2010 icon editor - why is not white white

• Extremely slow LabVIEW 2010 icon editor

  Working on a project of medium size in LabVIEW 2010.  Out of the blue icon editor is slowing down.  So slow that type in a character of text takes 20 seconds.  After closing, the editor he is about 3 to 5 second rule on everything that I do in LabVIEW.

  LabVIEW games restart things back to normal, until I open the icon editor.  No results of Subvi opening in this problem.  And this happens in any project or even if no project is open, and I'm trying to change the icon in a Subvi Untitled 1.

  Anyone else seen this behavior.  I really want to re - install LabVIEW 2010.

  Thank you

  I've not seen this behavior, and I really have no idea what could be the problem. As a solution, we can 'turn off' icon editor and force LabVIEW to use the old classic that is causing the problem to go, in my opinion. To do this, rename the following lv_icon.bak:

  [2010]\resource\plugins\lv_icon.vi LabVIEW

  This will completely ignore the code from the editor of icon and go directly to the editor of classic icons. You will lose a lot of the new functionality of the icon editor, but I'm guessing that this will make the downturn go away.

• LabVIEW 2010 executable runs under windows xp, but not in windows 7

  Hi all.  Here's the situation.  We have Labview 2010 professional development on a computer running Windows XP.  I designed all my programs with this PC.  We have another PC which has Windows 7 with no Labview.  I'm trying to make the executable files and put them on the Windows 7 PC.  I have been here three executable files and move the Windows 7 PC.  One of the executables work correctly, the other two interrupt immediately.

  Executables that stop have temperature limits and the program is apparently seen a low temperature and so stop the program.  Yet, these same executables work fine on the PC under Windows XP.  What seems to be the case, is that the program is expelled before allowing himself read the temperatures.  I use the modules of the series C 9213 and 9211 with 9188 Chassis.   My programs are showing 0 for temperatures.  Well, it's certainly in the low temp limit, so the program stops.  However, she should not do this.  I know there is little delay with the playback of all thermcouples in 9213 and 9211 modules, but this was not a problem with Windows XP.  Even if the program starts from scratch on the XP PC, temperatures immediately appear, or appear after a second or two.  Yes, I've rarely seen a temp 0 on the XP PC, but the program doesn't stop; Give it a second or two and the time appear.  Why is it that happens in Windows 7?

  An executable that works has no measure of temperature.  It uses only 9481 modules and run the solenoids at a rate of about 0.2 seconds.  This executable works fine on both computers.

  So what - this on the modules of temperature reading that is causing a problem in Windows 7?

  Other installation data :

  -The XP PC has the updates Labview 2010 is compatible with

  -The PC Win 7 not the latest updates of Labview 2010 there are has compatibility problems.  National Instruments has given me the compatible components, and they has several levels down by the most recent (for example MAX vs MAX 5.6 v14.0)

  
  

• Icon editor does not work after upgrade Windows 10!

  Hi all

  I'm using LabVIEW 2014 SP1 and I have recently upgraded to Windows 10. After this Icon Editor is not working properly, I can see only limited functionality.

  Atttaching the video.

  Please help me.

  Kind regards

  Rajesh

  Sam Merci for your support!

  I solved the problem, I debugged the '... \LabVIEW 2014\resource\plugins\lv_icon.VI ' and found that the error was generated when accessing some files in the folder of the administrator. It seems to be permission/security problem. Now I'm running the LabVIEW as an administrator and it works correctly.

  Thanks again Sam.

  Kind regards

• LabVIEW 2010 will not install on Win XP SP3

  I have made several attempts to install LabVIEW 2010 on Win XP SP3. I already have LabVIEW 2009 installed and working.

  On each attempt, I accept the default installation options and do not put in a serial number. The first attempt got stuck at 2% full and has not changed for 30 minutes. No error message. I canceled the installation and tried to install it again from setup.exe.

  The next two attempts to stall at 0% blinking forever. The 4th attempt made in 18% entered at a standstill for more than 30 minutes. The next two attempts is stagnating at 0% repeating and not cancel. I had to end it with the Task Manager.

  Why it not install LabVIEW 2010 without stalling until 30 minutes? Why it not spit an error instead of just stalling? How can I know why he moved?  How should I do?

  I finally got to LabVIEW 2010 to install.

  I didn't have a corrupted download. I didn't disable my antivirus. I didn't have a lot of processes running. I turned off my computer last night and I tried the setup.exe again this morning first thing. Maybe running LabVIEW 2009 yesterday before installation left something that the installation did not like. Who knows?

  How is the installation of LabVIEW 2010 would just stall for long periods (more than 30 minutes, maybe forever) without any error message or progress?

  LabVIEW has a Setup log that I could look into these situations to see where the installation is suspended up to and perhaps why?

• 9.30 NIDAQ drivers not install LabVIEW 2011 - example. Microsoft .com's in LabVIEW 2010 under vi.llb

  I just upgraded to LabVIEW 2011 without uninstalling LabVIEW 2010.  I downloaded the last set of drivers DAQmx 9.30.  I find that these drivers are installed in a DAQmx folder under the vi.llb of theLabVIEW 2010 and NOT in the vi.llb of LabVIEW 2011.  The DAQmx features do not appear on the menus and the existing instances are reported as 'cannot be compiled.

  You must DAQmx 9.4.

• NOR Developer Suite 2010 is not LabVIEW 2010

• Icon editor crash

  I'm using LabVIEW 2015 64-bit. Whenever I double click on an icon to edit the icon editor flashes for a moment, then seems to crash and is replaced by former editor icons years ago. Everything else seems to work very well.

  I've updated my version of LabVIEW yesterday to see if that fixed it, but it still happens.

  Does anyone know why does not the icon editor, or how can I make it work?

  Have you installed or removed something? Whatever this is updated? Unexplained crash (BSOD)?

  Have you tried repairing your installation of LabVIEW?

• Partial cure for the problem of model Icon Editor

  I'm driven crazy by models Icon Editor behavior (which I love and use all the time).  What happens is I'll open a project, start to make icons with my set of templates (all saved in LabVIEW Data\Icon Templates\VI\BS icons) and especially if I've included copies of screws that have been developed, say, two years ago and copied from another file on the disk, will notice two copies of the model , with the second copy often in... part \VI\3rd.  Now, these are clearly my models, just saved in the "wrong" place.

  Get rid of these models in doubles was very difficult - I just spent half an hour doing it.  You delete all the files in the 3rd part, open the icon editor and see only one copy, then start doing things and Bingo!, the model appears in the model list in the Icon Editor, but also the file reappears in the 3rd party folder.  What should do?

  So I did a search on the Web, found a fool named "Bob Schor", which has asked about it in 2011 (on this Forum, of all places!), got a few suggestions, but does not solve the problem.  So I tried something else.

  I noticed that there is a lot of. BIN files stored in the model icon folders, with file names that appear to reference different versions of LabVIEW (e.g. Templates.15.0f2.bin).  On a lark, I deleted this file, deleted the folder of 3rd party model, LabVIEW has reopened, reopened the icon editor, and (he said, I hope) the problem seems to be solved.  There is no more 3rd-party file appearing in the model list, icons are not really, it can't be, maybe if I killed the evil Dragon.  I'll let it rest for a week and if it still seems to work, will return and mark this as a 'Solution '.  Comments and other ideas welcome.

  Bob Schor

  Is there a step I missed, but just found.  In the icon editor itself, there is a setting to know where (by default) record the models he finds inside a VI already, but are not in the calibre of icon file.  This setting is under Tools, icon editor properties.  In the 'Model' category, you should disable "Save third icon templates" which, like a default value of \Icon Templates\3rd, part.

  I am currently testing (on several machines, all configured slightly differently), these ideas and so far it seems to work.  I had a small panic today when the '3rd party folder' with additional copies of some of my models began to appear that I opened the existing screws, but turning the switch "Record the icon of third-party models" seemed to solve this problem.  I'm almost ready to mark this (and earlier versions) post as a Solution...

• LabVIEW2009: How to replace the new Icon Editor with old?

  Ladies and gentlemen,

  I really don't like the new icon introduced in LabVIEW 2009 Editor:

  It was tried to "Photoshop shipped" with a lot of features:

  

  But I don't like it really, because:

  -It has opened EVERY time on the RIGHT monitor (I have three monitors and main monitor in the middle)

  -It takes a lot of time to launch (former editor of icon start momentally)

  d ' usability point of view - it was wrong to place tools on the right side. Often, they are on the left side (and only in the old icons, but also in imageprocessing Editor software like Adobe Photoshop). Also front of interface design user Panel... hmmm... This can be better...

  -some bugs or modified features (for example - KING to select, then press the button - nothing happened)

  etc...

  Is it possible to replace it with an old man:

  

  Ideal solution will be - switch just between two editors (some features introduced are not so bad).

  Thanks in advance,

  Andrey.

  Go to \Resource\Plugins and rename lv_icon.vi. It is a plugin that is called when you call icon editor, and if it isn't there, LV is the Editor (at least for now. I don't know how many versions to come, they will keep the code).

  Note that the editor is open source, so you can enter and change what you want (or save you time and use the changes others did, as the thread of PJM here. You can also watch other discussions in this group).

• Error 7 when opening the file auto-LabVIEW 2010

  I use Open/create/replace file in LabVIEW 2010 to open a text file.  It works fine until I have compile the code.  Then, I get error 7. I tried the paths that are similar to the following, but no doesn't work.

  c:\\file.txt

  c:\\file.txt

  c:\------\file.txt

  Thank you

  You must get the path to the .exe file.  Then remove the name of .vi and the .exe.  Then build the path from there to get your .txt file.  The way you have it, you treat the .exe to a folder rather than a file.  The text is no file not part of the .exe, you cannot create a path that includes the name of the .exe.

  Why my executable does not work when you use the constant path of the current VI?

• LV 2009 Icon Editor turned to the previous Version

  Hello!

  I want to ask you if someone has experience strange behavior of "ICON EDITOR". When I opened my editor-in-Chief, it showed up about a half second or so away and violllllla! the former editor-in-Chief came. Really strange because I just used it earlier today... If anyone knows how to bring it back please please post the "how-to".

  Thanks in advance!

  Check the LabVIEW data folder in 'My Documents'. If it is set to read-only, icon editor does not work.

  Usually, it's a sign for him, when the editor of icons appears for a brief moment.

  IE is open source. If the LabVIEW data folder is not write protected, go to lv_icon.vi of 2009\resource\plugins\ of LabVIEW and check if IE is executable at all.

  Thank you

• Polymorphic icon editor - returns to the old editor

  LabVIEW 2010 SP1

  I have a set of polymorphic screws I have in a library of Instrument project into the Public folder.

  When I try to change the icon, then select a glyph to slide in the LabVIEW icon field returns to the old editor!

  It's really slow my productivity.  Is there a way to fix this?

  This also happens to the non-polymorphic screw Icon Editor.

  Close LabVIEW and begins again deleted the question - even if I can't always change the option of read-only folder.

• No material listed in Labview 2010 Linux DAQ

  Hello

  I have a problem with DAQmx Base 3.4.0 under Linux:

  mxbaseconfig shows my NOR-6009 device to the USB port. I can also create tasks corresponding to the nor-6009 in there. When I try to create a task in Labview 2010, one of the constant I/O are always empty. Dropdown menu arrow is grayed out. If I get the name of the device directly in the constant, he through me an error :-( Do not know Semms like Labview, which DAQmx Base instruments are connected...
