Installed UI Tools v1.4.1.74 from VIPM. Although the examples are listed in NI Example Finder, the examples appear to be missing. Clicking on any listed example produces and error saying the file could not be found. Also, as I was poking around, I did find a bug with the flowing of text when creating a message box. It seems that the Message string input must contain at least one CR for it to display the scroll bar properly.

Could someone recover or repost? I realize a very old post but I still have curiosity and need. There is still mention as recent as 2019 in the LabVIEW Idea Exchange https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/LabVIEW-Viewer/idc-p/4001682/highlight/true#M41531

I realize a very old post, but still remains helpful! I can't seem to download the posted VI. I get and error "The page you requested does not exist" Could someone point to the new location or repost?

Why not use the LabVIEW's native Application Directory VI? This automatically takes into account if you are in development mode or runtime (exe). Application Directory VI Owning Palette: File Constants Requires: Base Development System Returns the path to the directory containing the application. If you call this VI from a stand-alone application, this VI returns the path to the folder containing the stand-alone application. If you call this VI from the development environment and the VI is loaded in a LabVIEW project file (.lvproj), this VI returns the path to the folder containing the project file. If the project is not saved, this VI returns <Not a Path>.

Installed Compare to Disk Tool 4.0.0.9 using VI Package Manager on LV2017. Did a mass compile on the C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2017\project\OpenG folder When click on Tools-->OpenG->Compare VI to Disk, it opens the copy from disk, but does not launch the compare tool. The OpenG folder contains two libraries, Compare VI To Disk.llb and _Compare VI To Disk_internal_deps.llb. When I try to open the "compare_vi_to_disk__compare_vi_to_disk.vi" in the Compare VI To Disk.llb I get the following error "Make sure that the compare to disk library is located in the ..\LabVIEW\project directory." If I move "Compare VI To Disk.llb" to the LabVIEW 2017\project folder then the Tools menu Copy to Disk option disappears when I restart the project. So which folder do the two libraries belong in? C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2017\project\OpenG OR C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2017\project Thanks in advance.
