I'm looking for a way to get the color of a datatype wire, i.e. as it would appear in the connector pane for an associated front panel control.
A little more detail: Take a standard VI with a handful of controls and indicators wired to the connector pane. Each datatype's core wire color is shown in the associated connector pane terminal box. Can you programmatically retrieve this color for any datatype?
What I've tried:
I've looked for a "datatype" property node in the hope of extracting further information, but not sure that's helpful.
I've played around with the Class Identifier for a control reference, but not sure what use that really is?
I've looked for a way to grab an image of the connector pane's terminals to grab the color from the filled rectangles. I can only seem to get the VI icon with the connection text as seen in context help.
Any ideas?
