Searching for User Interface Objects

LabWindows/CVI

View»Find UI Object

Note Note  The Find UI Object command is also available as a shortcut menu option from the User Interface Browser.

Use the Find UI Object command to move directly from a Source window to a User Interface Editor. To use this command, place the cursor on the constant name or callback function name of the user interface panel, control, or menu object you want to view. Then select View»Find UI Object. LabWindows/CVI searches each .uir file that is currently open or in the workspace for user interface objects with a matching constant name or callback function name. If LabWindows/CVI finds an object, the User Interface Editor contains the object comes to the foreground.

If the matching object is a panel, the panel title bar briefly flashes and the panel becomes active. If the object is a control, Find UI Object selects the control. If Find UI Object finds a menu object or more than one matching object, a dialog box that contains the list of matches appears. In this dialog box you can view information about each of the objects or select one to edit.
