LabVIEW 8.5

LabVIEW 8.5 is here, just in time for NI Week 2007!

I am looking forward to posting about the our new features. If there are any specific features that interest you, please leave me a comment or send me an e-mail and I'll try to cover those first.

Also, now that LabVIEW 8.5 has been released, I can give you more details about my NI Week session on Wednesday. Most of the "Understanding and Avoiding LabVIEW Cross-linking Problems" session will be demonstrations of new features in LabVIEW 8.5 focused on predicting, detecting, and repairing cross-linking problems, including:

• the new Files View which shows your project contents in disk organization
• tools for displaying and resolving multiple VIs of the same name referenced by a single project
• new Find tools for the project, which help you find items by name and by caller/callee relationship
• auto-populating folders, which automatically update in response to content changes on disk.
