If the Project Explorer window does not have focus, returns a reference to the project item associated with the VI window that has focus. You can use these references with the ProjectItem properties.ApplicationReturns the application reference for the My Computer target in the LabVIEW project. You can use this reference with the Application properties.DescriptionGets or sets the description of the LabVIEW project. You also can use the Project page of the Project Properties dialog box to set the project description.Items View ActiveShow or hide the Items page in the Project Explorer window.My ComputerReturns a reference to My Computer in the Project Explorer window for the LabVIEW project. You can use this reference with the TargetItem properties.NameGets the name of the LabVIEW project. If the project has been saved, this property returns the filename with the file extension. If the project has not been saved, this property returns untitled project x and you can write to this property to change the name.PathGets the path to the saved LabVIEW project on disk. This path includes the filename of the project.RootReturns a reference to the project root in the Project Explorer window. The project root is the top item that represents the LabVIEW project in the Project Explorer window. You can use this reference with the ProjectItem properties.Save VersionReturns the project save version. (To set the save version, use the Set Project Save Version method.)Selected Items in TreeReturns an array of references to the project items currently selected in the Project Explorer window. You can use these references with the ProjectItem properties.Separate Compiled Code For New Project ItemsSets or returns whether the project should configure new project items to separate the compiled code from the source. This property corresponds to the "Separate Compiled Code From New Project Items" option in the Project Properties dialog.TargetsReturns an array of references to all targets in the current LabVIEW project. You can use these references with the TargetItem properties.Window StateReturns the state of the Project Explorer window.
