[Eden_S]

Overview

The example to save and load front panel control values to/from a .ini file.

Description

There are a number of ways to save a set of control values to load at a later date. Here are two VIs which allow you to save and load front panel control values to/from a .ini file. The example automatically populates an xml file with all current control values to the VI's front panel.

Requirements

• LabVIEW 2012( or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Run the vi.
2.  Hit 'save' - this will save a .INI file with all control information to the specified path
3.  Hit 'load' you will notice that they return to the originally saved values

Many thanks,  this works very well!  Even on array of clusters containing arrays of clusters!!!!

Really nice, even with hideously complex controls, but not if there are controls with multi-line labels. Very many thanks.
