  1. Hello everyone, I want to share a VI that I recently created to search for orphan files in a (very! ) messy project. As it turned out it's actually very easy to do that (if you find super-secret stuff on the net): This VI will find files (VIs, Controls, Classes, etc...) in your project folder that are not linked by a given top-level VI. This is done by comparing the call-chain of the top-level VI with the files on disk. It assumes your files are in folders relative to the specified root directory. This also means that files outside the hierarchy will be ignored (vi.lib and such). Be aware of (at least) two things: This VI will return false friends if you happen to have any "Open VI Reference" call with constant VI names or paths connected to it (not a problem if you use static VI references). VIs in diagram disable structures are not listed in the call-chain. So if you use conditional (or regular) disable structures this VI will return false friends. Does anyone know a solution to number 2. actually? Hope this proves useful to you too.
  2. I have been re-factoring and cleaning up some old code for packaging into reuse libraries. After doing several common edits to each file, I decided to automate the process a bit. The result was a simple tool to adjust the controls, panel positions, connector pane, add error clusters and comments. I decided to share it here so others could borrow some of my ideas and suggest more. As it is, this is saving me a lot of editing time. I hope you find it helpful too. Prep for reuse.zip -John One improvement I would like to make is for it to scan all open VIs in all application instances on the machine. Right now, it must run in the same app instance as the target VI. Any ideas how to get references to all app instances active on a target machine?
