Creating ActiveX Subpalettes

Complete the following steps to convert a set of ActiveX controls to custom controls and add them to a palette and/or .mnu file.

  1. Select Tools»Advanced»Import ActiveX Controls. A dialog box appears that contains a list of ActiveX controls you have registered in your computer.
  2. Select one or more controls in the list.
  3. When prompted, select a directory or .llb file in which to store the controls. The default destination is user.lib because all files and directories in that directory automatically appear in the palettes.
Caution  Do not save ActiveX controls in vi.lib. LabVIEW overwrites items in this directory when you upgrade.
