Using multiple WPF graphs in different threads can cause your application to crash.

When rendering WPF graphs, a point-renderer generates a static bitmap. When multiple WPF graphs are rendering in different threads, the first graph to render will write to the bitmap, but the subsequent threads will fail to access the bitmap. This can cause a crash.

Workaround:

Follow the workaround as described in this community post.

Writing DateTime to a TDMS file slightly offsets the time.

Writing a DateTime value to a TDMS file using the Measurement Studio API writes a slightly offset value for the DateTime to the TDMS file. The value written is 76 ticks later than expected.

Workaround:

Convert the DateTime to a PrecisionDateTime. Example: file.AddProperty("_ts0", TdmsPropertyDataType.DateTime, PrecisionDateTime.FromDateTime(writeDate));

Error When Compiling Measurement Studio Project Using NI-Digital

When you use Measurement Studio to compile a .NET project that includes references to NI-Digital, an error occurs because NationalInstruments.ModularInstruments.Common 19.0 cannot be found. This is caused by Measurement Studio adding references to assemblies with different .NET Fx versions, which creates a conflict.

Workaround:

Update all project references to include only Fx40 or Fx45 versions of NI assemblies.
