I sure hope you're not talking about me...

Bloody kiwis don't have anything else to do...

I choose this version.

...and funny too!

Since you're designing a framework, it might be a good idea to write the units in the same standard that ATML does...

Yes. Is as portable, if not more portable, than raw XML, because it is XML but with standard defined tags.

We use ATML - it's XML formatted in a particular way for test, and sounds like it'll do everything you're after (and TestStand writes it natively). I've been meaning to write a LabVIEW module to write ATML for a while now...

Can you upload an example sequence, example property file, and maybe explain your property loader setting a little more?

Good to hear

Wow. OK - now the competition begins: try to name the ppl in the vid

Let's just say that ":q!" was out most-often used command

What you loose in design time you gain (if not, moreso) in coding, integration and testing time. Your first few designs will take some time, and you might think it wasted, but remember your first state machine? You have to think about that up front before you coded it, and now you are probably much more efficient at putting them together because you more intmately understand state machines, and have the experience implmeneting them - getting in to OO is exactly the same. There will also be some OO concepts that you think are time wasters (like writing methods to expose private data outside a class), but once you play with it for a while and really understand why it needs to be that way, you'll never look back. I can't disagree more - in fact, probably 75% of my OO has been little nuggets that are used by large non-OO architectures. Sure, a lot of the examples you see are of large apps, but IMHO that's no way the be-all and end-all of OO. For example, I'm currently writing a snippet of code for a partner of ours that have their own sequencer written in LabVIEW (don't go there ) - my snippet's input is a reference to the table on their FP that contains all the steps and their descriptions, and my output is a picture indicator that is a flow chart representation of the sequence. With OO, it took me about a day to set it up, without OO I don't think I could have done it in weeks. Another example is the config file VIs that come with LabVIEW - they're not a large application - they're a convenient method (pun intended) for manipulating a particular type of file. In summary: don't think about OO as it applies to the size of a project - think about how it applies to objects. If there are elements in your system that can be thought of objects, then OO is probably the right choice, whether it be the tiniest file function or the largest application. That is an excellent summary - nicely put Felix! See, and now you lost me We have a bunch of OO stuff in our reuse library. What about OO means you shouldn't use it in a reuse library?

Ha! jeff_plotzke and I had to update a config file on a customer UUT that runs on qnx - I was embarrassed that I had to look up the vi keyboard commands

If you can pass the online one then I think you are safe to assume that the real one will be very similar informat and level of questions.

Me too - check out the discussion here: http://lavag.org/top...w-rating-system We still have the old database - we can do anything Seriously though, I'm interested to hear if we lost content, or if the posts exist and you just lost post count for them. If it's the former, please report.

Congrats on your acheivement on the NI forums Ben - well done mate. You lost posts? Please report that to the administrators. That's why, here at LAVA, post count isn't important at all - we're all about content, which is why we instituted a kudos system. I don't want to take any of the shine of your obviously important acheivements and contributions on the NI Forums, but you should be trying to acheive a higher kudos count rather than post count here, which means the SNR will take care of itself. IMHO I can't see us instituting a "Knight of LAVA" based solely on post count - that's why we have the TALM (Totally Awesome LAVA Members) program.

Just like in the US - where the oz can measure mass *and* volume!

Sounds like an exciting time around your dinner table

Suggested improvement from yenknip on the LabVIEW Idea Exchange:

Okay - come back to us once you've restarted if the issue persists.

That's great advice!

Shhhh! Don't tell anyone!

Did you restart IE and/or the PC?

Does it stay like that, or revert to the standard zoom after a few seconds? Did a restart fix the issue?
