[Antoine Chalons]

this is probably the idea with the most duplicate ideas I guess NI added up the votes, it's not only a great idea but it's also vital for the developers sanity!

Have you ever been through the NI Software Activation process for a computer without internet?

So much hassle and possible mistake... vote for a smartphone app to facilitate the process!

Went to post on the exchange and found that the same basic idea already existed.  So I am linking to it here.  Please give this your Kudos...

http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Dot-convention-for-accessing-nested-LVCLASS-properties/idc-p/2692469#M26234

 

Basically, I am looking for the property node to have consistent behavior when working with classes.  For those of you who use property node access to your class data and use composition, this will lead to much cleaner code.
