Expandable project items include folders, project libraries, LabVIEW classes, and XControls.Convert to Auto-populating FolderConnect this project item to a folder on disk.DeleteRemoves the referenced project item from the LabVIEW project. If the item has children, the children also are deleted. You also can use the Project Explorer window to remove items from the project.ExpandDisplays the contents of an expandable project item in the Project Explorer window. Expandable project items include folders, project libraries, LabVIEW classes, and XControls.Get All DescendentsRecursively returns project items that appear under the referenced item in the project tree. For example, if you call this method on project library A that contains an inner project library B, the method returns items owned both by library A and library B.Get Library Access ScopeRetrieves the access scope or inherited access scope, if applicable, for an item that the LabVIEW project library owns, such as public, community, or private access.Replace Item WithReplace a project item with a chosen file. The default value of "Allow If Missing?" is FALSE. The default value of "Save Option" is "Save All Without Prompts". The "Modified VIs" will return an array of references to the modified VIs. The "Modified Libraries" will return an array of references to the modified Libraries.Stop Auto-populatingDisconnect this folder from a folder on disk.Tag:DeleteRemoves the named tag from the LabVIEW project item.Tag:Get NamesReturns an array of tag names of all tags on the referenced project item.Tag:Get TagReturns a tag value associated with the project item.Tag:Get XML TagReturns the value in an XML tag.Tag:Set TagSets a tag value associated with the LabVIEW project.Tag:Set XML TagSets the value of an XML tag associated with the LabVIEW project.
