I completely understand! I anticipated it would work a certain way, but it turned out to function differently. Just to make sure, if you have a VI in the Functions Pallete and you changed its Icon. You go to Palette then Right Click on the VI >> Delete and Shift. After that, Right Click >> Insert >> Control or VI.

The VIPB is connected to a Source Directory that has 5 VIs. Once I add another VI to the Directory, I don't see it in the Functions Palette on the Palette Tab. How do I "refresh" the VIPB file? My refresh was done by step 1. Importantly, I see the additional VI in the Source File Setting Tab after I click "Reset to Default" but in the Functions Palette it does not appear.

Thanks for your reply! My question is more directed to my way of working. And I would appreciate it if someone could direct me because I'm just getting confused with this. that's my process: Initial Build (Version 1.0.0.1): In the Build Information panel, I select the Source Directory. In the Palette Tab, I design the icons for the Functions Palette. I click the "Build Package" button, and after a moment, a VIP file with version 1.0.0.1 is generated from the VIPB file. Now, after a few days, I want to release version 1.0.0.2. Here are the steps I follow: Updating to Version 1.0.0.2: In the Build Information panel, I select the Source Directory. In the Palette Tab, I design the icons for the Functions Palette. I click the "Build Package" button, and after a moment, a VIP file with version 1.0.0.2 is generated from the VIPB file. Do I need to repeat these three steps every time, or is there a way to skip step 2? I’m sure there’s a more efficient approach, especially when dealing with large packages.

Can you please provide an up-to-date solution to the question?

I'm currently working on building a LabVIEW library, and every time I update it, I find myself redoing the entire design process. This includes hiding VIs I don't want the user to see, adding icons, and other design tasks. This has become quite time-consuming, and I believe there must be a more efficient way to manage this. I've read a bit about .mnu files and how they can help organize and manage the appearance of VIs in the LabVIEW palettes, but I'm not entirely sure how to use them effectively. I think using .mnu files might be the solution to my problem, but I'm stuck on how to properly implement them in my library design. Could someone please guide me on how to create and use .mnu files to manage my library's palette structure. Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello, is there a regex library in LV similar to Python’s re module? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you!
