When you select Tools»Synchronize with ni.com Icon Library from the Icon Editor dialog box, LabVIEW attempts to download the most recent glyphs from the Icon Library at ni.com. If LabVIEW cannot reach the National Instruments Web server, LabVIEW displays the Synchronize Manually dialog box. Use this dialog box to synchronize with the Icon Library manually.

Complete the following steps to synchronize with the Icon Library manually when the Synchronize Manually dialog box appears.

  1. Search for Glyphs and Templates Are Missing in LabVIEW Icon Editor on ni.com or click the link in Related information.
  2. From the article on ni.com, download the Icon_Library.zip file to an easily accessible location.
  3. Copy and save the Icon Library XML file to an easily accessible location. The Icon Library XML file determines the structure of the files in the Icon_Library.zip file.
  4. In the Synchronize Manually dialog box, enter the path to the Icon_Library.zip file in the Icon library ZIP file field.
  5. Enter the path to the Icon Library XML file in the Icon library XML file field.
  6. Click the OK button. LabVIEW populates the Synchronize with Icon Library dialog box with all icons from the .zip file and with a structure that the XML file defines.
