A set of custom controls, following the trend of a more flat UI design. Heavily influenced by Google’s Material Design, though constrained by what can be done with available tools and options in LabVIEW. Uses icons from Google Material Design. — Buttons based on the system booleans (with hover effects). Icons can be added as decals (such as from materialdesignicons.com) — Matched sets of controls for numeric/string/enum/etc., based on Silver controls, but swapping out all ‘chrome’ for simple boxes and lines. — flattened versions of switches/sliders/arrays/graphs etc. Now on the LabVIEW Tools Network JDP Science Tools group on NI.com.

A pair of subVIs for connecting a cluster of enums and booleans to a set of options in a menu (either the right-click shortcut menu on control or the VI menu bar). Adding new menu options requires only dropping a new boolean or enum in the cluster. See original conversation here. I use this heavily in User Interfaces, with display options being accessed via the shortcut menus of graphs, tables, and listboxes, rather than being independent controls on the Front Panel. Relies on the OpenG LabVIEW Data Library.

This tool integrates into the LabVIEW Project Provider API and contains features to assist with LVOOP development Instructions: - Restart LabVIEW after installation - In a LabVIEW Project, right click on a Class or Class Method VI and select 'LVOOP Assistant >> Plugin' - If 'VIPM Options >> Mass Compile VIs after Package Installation' is set to FALSE, tool will mass compile on first load for LabVIEW versions after 2012 - See 'Help >> LAVA >> LVOOP Assistant' for more information - Search 'LVOOP' in NI Example Finder for examples of LVOOP Assistant pluginss Features: - Clone a Method VI to another Class - Create a Child Class - Display and edit all VI icons in a Class - Open Accessor VIs from a block diagram property node for debugging - Script Method VIs using templates from a sandbox - Paste icon text from one Method VI to another - Refresh a Method VI's icon without having to open the Class Properties Dialog and refresh all icons - Rename LVOOP Labels - Add favourite Virtual Folders to a Class with pre-configured scopes

Document Generator v1.0.0 Copyright © 2011, Mark Smith All rights reserved. Author: Mark Smith LAVA Name: mesmith Contact Info: Contact via PM on lavag.org LabVIEW Versions: 2009 Dependencies: None Description: This class is used to generate a single summary document for any folder containing LabVIEW elements (controls, VIs, projects, classes, or libraries (lvlib)). It recursively traverses the folder structure and reads the documentation from all VIs (including custom controls) and the documentation attached to all front panel controls. The class uses that information to build a document in HTML, RTF (rich text), or plain text (ASCII) formats. HTML is the preferred format, since this is the only format that includes lvclass descriptions and also supports the creation of a hyperlinked table of contents (TOC). The user can choose to - use short or long formats - the long format includes the descriptions on all front panel controls - Include or exclude custom controls from the document - Include or exclude private members of a class or library - Include or exclude protected members of a class or library One might choose to exclude private and protected members if the intention is to create an API document for the class or library - enable or disable a dialog that warns that an existing html file is about to be replaced by the Document Generator Installation and instructions: Unzip and open the Document Generator.lvclass Examples: The UI.vi is an interactive interface for creating documents. The Generate.vi provides an API if the user wants to programatically call this utility. They can be found in the Public->Methods virtual folder. Known Issues: Any documentation read from the source elements (VIs, controls, projects, etc.) is treated as pure text. There is currently no provision for escaping characters that might be interpreted as control characters in HTML. Version History: v1.0.0: Initial release of the code.
