Greyed out "replace with..." meny in project explorer

[bsvingen]

Right clicking on an iten (a vi) in the project explorer gives a menu with an iten called "replace with..." This is extremely handy. But sometimes this item is greyed out, and I can't figure out why and what to do to un-gray it. Anyone?

Just a quick wild guess : amongst the reasons for a VI to have this option gray-out, you'd find "this VI is currently running, or is a dependency of another VI that is running", there are probably other reasons of course.

Can you give more details concerning your use case?

Is a part of your code running when you have this issue?

Is your VI part of a class or lvlib that is protected, etc...

Not running. Definitely part of a class (several), could be that they are protected, but I don't understand why that should warrant the grey-out when they are part of the same project ??
