LabWindows/CVI Tips and Tricks
  • Define custom source code regions

  • Regions are a good way to organize your code within files. LabWindows/CVI automatically identifies code blocks as regions, but you can also create your own custom regions with the ///REGION START and ///REGION END keywords.
  • Easy source code navigation and overview

  • Select Tools>>Source Code Browser to view the Source Code Browser, a cross-reference tool that lists all files, functions, variables, data types, and macros in a program. Enable this option in the Build Options dialog box.
