    LabVIEW Slows Down When NI-Sync Terminal Control is Created on Linux RT System

    When a user creates an NI-Sync terminal control or constant in a VI in the context of a Linux RT target, LabVIEW becomes slow in responding to edit actions, including dragging and placing nodes on the block diagram.

    Workaround:

    To prevent the sluggishness in LabVIEW, do the following:
    1. Right-click the control or constant and select I/O Name Filtering from the shortcut menu.
    2. In the Filter Names dialog box, select Allow Undefined Names.

    Reported Version:
