LabVIEW Idea Exchange
I have several versions of LV permanently installed in order to maintain old code, going back several years. This is because most often it is not possible - or even not allowed - to upgrade RTE's and/or Device Drivers at target PC's working at factory shopfloors.
I often end up opening projects with a newer LV version without being aware of it and it happens to inadvertently save VI's with that version and - even if most often I "hit" only one VI - that is enough to wreck havoc on the entire project, which than needs to be entirely saved back to the original older version; it happened to be necessary to use progressively older LV versions, because sw was very very old.
I would like to have LV version AND the VI's origin LV version permanently displayed - say, on the top right corner of the window, both BD and FP - and IF they differ, an warning blinking triangle.
