Executables have menu and window title with strange font

[vivante]

Hi folks,

I have created an executable with LV 2011 and I have found an unexpected behaviour of my application: the VI's menu uses an unreadable font or charset.

When I run the same VI from LabVIEW (i.e. the source code), I see the standard LabVIEW menu.

Above you see the screenshot of panel executed from LabVIEW IDE, below you see the same VI executed in my .exe app.

browsing submenus I see the strange font in every submenu. Instead, labels and captions on panel have standard font.

In past, I have built other applications on the same machine, all worked fine.

Have you any idea? are there special settings in build spec.?

Hi Neil,

I added the three lines to the .ini file , listed below, but the issue remains.

server.app.propertiesEnabled=True

server.ole.enabled=True

server.tcp.paranoid=True

server.tcp.serviceName="My Computer/VI Server"

server.vi.callsEnabled=True

server.vi.propertiesEnabled=True

WebServer.TcpAccess="c+*"

WebServer.ViAccess="+*"

DebugServerEnabled=False

DebugServerWaitOnLaunch=False

appFont = "0" 13

dialogFont = "2" 13

systemFont = "1" 13

I wonder: if the VI loads a different font, which is that font name?

With the font name, I can search it into the LV project...

Why are my runtime exe menus jibberish?

Uninstalling the latest version (LVRTE2011SP1f1) here and reinstalling the older version (LVRTE2011f3) here fixed it.

Thank you ShaunR!
