shoneill 101 Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 I wanted to create a shortcut menu entry for finding a VI / sub-VI in the current project context but I can't find any methods to help me accomplish such a thing. I can get the current project context, but is there even a way to control what is selected? Or to highlight an entry in the tree? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jacobson 37 Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 If you get a reference to the specific ProjectItem in the project, there is a private method in the ProjectItem class which allows you to select/highlight items in the private tree. It works for the simple case I tried. Send me a message if you can't find the method. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren 204 Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 You can also press Ctrl-Shift-E from an open VI to select that VI in the project explorer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I use this all the time. I do wish this extended to Libraries not in an open project, vote here if you feel the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
