Creating your own Wizard / Toolkit?

[wrath_of_con]

Howdy folks,

I dont happen to be in front of a system with LabVIEW on it, so pardon me if the answer is 'right in front of me', but I am considering developing a "Wizard" or is the proper term "Toolkit" that would generate skeleton VI's for some other developers. Perhaps something that would prompt for potential commands, prompts for parameters, etc. then it would create the loops, some wiring, etc. Maybe similar to the State Diagram Toolkit.

I imagine developing some VI and placing it in the '...LV7/project' folder. I understand this would make it available as a tool for someone, yet I am curious about the steps involved in programmatically creating a VI.

Would someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for moving this here.

I'm starting to look around this Scripting section of the forum for my answers.

The LabVIEW-DSC module has "HMI Wizards" which generates diagrams (using scripting) based on what the user wants to accomplish. Obviously the VIs are protected, but you may get some ideas by looking at the HMI Wizards' interfaces.
