Maybe this sums it up better: I want to create a tool similar to the context help using LabVIEW.

Hi everyone, I would like to program some little extra functionality to the Blockdiagram Editor. In detail I want to write a tool, that allows me to drag a node over a wire and then automatically inserts it to the wire if it fits (e.g. drag a subVI into an error-wire). I guess I know/can figure out how to write that functionality using VI scripting, but I'm not sure how to implement it to run whenever I edit a VI. My first approach is to write a simple scripting-VI, that I will run whenever I need the functionality (or just place the exe in autostart). This VI will obtain the referen

I found some more ressources on xnodes in general, and they seem to be documented pretty badly. Can anyone tell me if there is a general way to change a propertynode-styled xnodes selected properties (same as pulling bottom of symbol down)? Or does the xnode needs to support this operation with its own "abilities"?

Hey guys, I'm trying to do some scripting on a Realtime-VI wich uses the FPGA Interface "Read/Write Control". I open a Reference to a VI containing a Read/Write Control, and when scrolling through the BD-Objects I find it with the class-name "nirviReadWriteControl". I used the "to more specific class"-VI to check wich class i can cast it to, and i tracked it down to be child of the GObject->Node Class. But i can't cast it to any of the childs offered in the class specifier constant. I also found out, that the "nirviReadWriteControl" is a xnode. I have never worked with those, is ther
