Add an entry every time VI is savedAdds an entry to the VI history every time you save the VI. If you do not type a comment in the Comment box of the History window, LabVIEW adds only a header to the history. The header contains the revision number (if Show revision number in titlebar has no checkmark), the date, the time, and the name of the VI.
Prompt for comment when VI is closedPrompts you to type a comment only when you close a VI rather than every time you save. LabVIEW prompts you if the VI changed any time since you loaded it, even if you already saved the changes. LabVIEW does not prompt you to type a comment when you save or close a VI if you changed only the history.
Prompt for comment when VI is savedPrompts you to type a comment on changes since the previous save. This option is useful if you prefer to comment on the changes when you finish making them instead of as you are editing. If you do not place a checkmark in this option, you cannot change the history after you select File»Save until the save is finished. LabVIEW does not prompt you to type a comment when you save or close a VI if you changed only the history.
Record comments generated by LabVIEWAdds comments to the history when certain events occur, such as converting the VI to a different version of LabVIEW, subVI changes, and changes to the name or path of the VI.
Show revision number in titlebarAdds the revision number to the header of the History window. The revision number starts at zero and increases incrementally every time you save the VI. However, it does not increase if you changed only the history.
