Austin Equitz Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 Does anybody know of any tools that make it easier to update Descriptions and Tips of front panel controls/indicators? This would also include an automated documentation output of the Descriptions/Tips that is easily transferable to a document editor such as Word. Quote Link to comment
joerghampel Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 Tom McQuillan offers a tool that helps with updating VI descriptions and icons: https://github.com/TomsLabVIEWExtensions/Documentation-Tool AntiDoc by wovalab (Olivier Jourdan) generates very nice and extensive documentation for DQMH modules, LV classes and .lvlibs. Here's an example PDF of our open-source application template. 2 Quote Link to comment
