Hello LAVA community! We've built a free, open-source visual programming IDE that comes with out-of-the-box support for SCPI and most popular instrument brands (NI, Keysight, Tektronix, Rhode & Shwarz, etc). We're looking for beta users and feedback to make this Desktop app as useful as possible. It's completely free and does not require any coding or command-line knowledge. In particular, we're looking for feedback on how this early version of Flojoy compares to LabVIEW and TestStand. Here are a few getting started links: Download Flojoy (for Mac, Windows, or Linux) Flojoy examples for Tektronix instruments Flojoy examples for other hardware devices and instruments [Advanced] How to build your own Flojoy drivers and blocks in Python YouTube channel If you have questions or need help connecting to an instrument, please simply reply below or join our Discord chat. If you don't see your instrument supported in Flojoy's blocks, let us know and we may be able to add it for you. Screenshot of Flojoy desktop app:

I wrote a very simple vi for a friend of mine. Simple as in: this vi has no sub-vi's and all functions are from the standard palette. I was going to build an executable for him to run it, but it turns out he has a Mac and I am running on Windows. Even though I own 3 licenses of LabVIEW it appears that I have to purchase a whole new multi-thousand dollar LabVIEW license for Mac to be able to build it. Given the nature of the project, you can see why this is not a good solution for the situation. I am asking for a favor, that if anyone has the Mac OS version of LabVIEW if they wouldn't mind doing me a favor and taking a few minutes to build this vi into a .app file. I would really appreciate it. Thanks. DyRASS.vi

Need a solution for LabVIEW on the Mac. I'm looking for a way to list all running Mac apps. Then I want to pick one of them and issue a quit message and have it exit gracefully. Does anyone know how to do this on the Mac?
