Series of VIs with one control inside

[Mefistotelis]

I need a group of VI files, each containing only one control on Front Panel. Basically, I want every control available in LV menus in its own separate VI.

Is there a way to automate creation of such VIs?

Did you have a look at VI Scripting? If not, check the following example - [LabVIEW]\examples\Application Control\VI Scripting\Creating Objects\Adding Objects.vi To be able to create controls or indicators you should open the BD and change VI server class for "Function" constant to Generic -> GObject -> GObject. Then you change "Subtract" constant to something like "Numeric Control" and run the VI.

Hope, this will help you move further with your task.

Wow.. yes, that seem to work exactly as I expected. Makes a new VI file with given control.

Can I make it iterate through all the types and open every possible VI in one run?

Something like that.

CreateALLObjects.vi

Thanks!

That is quite strange that I know exactly how LabVIEW works, but can't properly use it for what it is intended.
