There is an OpenG package that installs this option. It wasn't there by default in 2009, Yair says it should be here, I can't check 2010 as I don't have it installed on this laptop. Cheers -JG

You can find the property saver here - http://www.kshif.com/lv/index.html There are methods called Get Property and Set Property which I believe should allow generic setting of properties. However, if memory serves, the require a 1D array of integers to identify the property (which you have no way of finding out) and I believe I remember someone from NI saying that they're not actually used anywhere, so they might be unsafe.

User-defined menu entries in the File pull-down menu are linked to VIs created in the [LabVIEW]\wizard directory. Do you have a 'wizard' directory in your LabVIEW 2010 install?

I did not see a File->Locate in Project. There is a View->This VI in Project (CTRL+SHIFT+E) which is present in 2010 and 2011 that does what mention. Perhaps the menu item you referenced was a tool added to 2010?

You should rather do it like this: However I'm not sure whether XControl could do something later with objects you add. That's a question to its developer. You may also get access to individual elements of a graph (also without any warranty). Example how to do it is here. I personally avoid to use new object style XControls for 3D plots. Loading time is a sufficient reason. Stability is second one.

Basically, you need to create a new VI (with its type being control) and call the Save Instrument method on that VI. There's an example of this in this RCF plugin (although, if memory serves, that one doesn't save the VI) and a more complicated one here (which does save it).

This issue is fixes in the OpenG Application Control Library 4.1.0.7 release.
