I was trying to use the new LabVIEW 2009 VI snippet tool and got one semi serious problem, and one serious bug.
I tried to get this snippet right.
First problem was that the VI must be save before 'Snipping'.
Second is taht when I tried to capture the event frame I got a series of dialog stating that I sould report it to NI tech personel.
Third is that the whole VI was captured.
In the attachment (temp.zip) is the XControl that created this (LabVIEW 2009), I have reproduced this even after a LV restart.
I only tried to capture the event structure inside the facade VI.

PS I am serious not just to diss the snippet tool
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello Ton,
thank you so much for your post. I created a new XControl and was able to reproduce it. It looks like it has something to do with the events that are used in the events structure (like direction change). I will file this problem.
Best regards,

Hi Roy,
one more problem with snippet creation...
See attached vi and according snippet.png. In the snippet the content of a [array of] cluster constant is invisible - which is rather annoying when that is just the main part of an example...

Hello GerdW,
the cluster is coming visible again when placing the cluster back into the block diagram. I noticed a Corrective Action Request which explains the same problem; it looks like the elements within the cluster are shifted. This CAR (# 184059) is already under investigation.
Thank you so much for bringing this problem up,
Best regards,
