How do you change sub VIs to be referenced relatively as opposed to absolute paths?

When I drag and drop a subvi into my current VI it works perfectly.  However, the subVI has an absolute path that points to somebody else's code on my computer.  I would prefer not to point my code to somebody else's code because if they decide to delete their code or modify it, my own code becomes at risk of breaking.  Instead, I would like to create a duplicate of subVI and have my current Vi point to it relatively (i.e. using things like ../../subvi.vi).
How can I accomplish this in labview?

> Does this still "hardcode" the abosolute file path?
I think the right answer is yes and no
Your main vi will remember the sub vi's file location relative to itself.
So you can move the folder containing the main vi and sub vi and main will have no trouble finding the sub vi.
If you move the sub vi to a folder under main using Window commands, main will notice that the sub vi is
not where it's supposed to be and try to find it.
If found, a warning is given. If not found it will ask you to Browse to it.
So it's absolute "relative" to main - not to the file system.
I hope this makes sense ...

  • How do you change size of text cursor or 'insertion point' in adobe cc for mac?

    how do you change size of text cursor or 'insertion point' in adobe ID cc for mac?  I have looked everywhere.  It's possible in Windows and Word but not in Mac.  Please help.  I spend half my time trying to find that blinking upright bar.

    Thanks for your note but it’s still a skinny rod that seems to disappear.  Why can’t it become a little thicker so it doesn’t disappear no matter what size I have set the screen?  My poor old eyes aren’t what they used to be.  I do appreciate your answering and I’ll enlarge the screen so the blankety-blankety blinking rod is at least visible.  Nancy

    Cursor size is governed by the type size and will be be larger or smaller on screen depending on how close you are zoomed in.

  • How do you change color of screen in dreamweaver?

    Hello how do you change color of screen in dreamweaver website?

    Do you mean the background-color of the actual site, or are you talking about the color of the DW interface?
    In DWCC, you can go to Modify > Page Properties to change things like the background-color, text color and more for the actual web page.
    You can also change it in the CSS Designer panel by creating a body selector in the css, then make the change in the CSS Designer's properties sub window.

    How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    Go to Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode, enter your passcode, then Turn Passcode Off will delete all current fingerprints. You can then turn passcode back on and enter fingerprints.
    Rather than deleting, you can also add the same fingerprint a second time via "Add a fingerprint" in Settings > General > Touch ID & Passcode, enter your passcode, then Touch ID.

  • How do you change your apple id on your iphone 5

    how do you change your apple id on your iphone 5. I also increased storage and cannot update to latest software upgrade! ANNOYING!!!!
    Yes, I logged in and out of the Ap Store and it is correct on that end. I have signed in on my PC too and connected cell. I am out of tactics to resolve! Please help!

    If your phone is signed into an old ID and you are trying to change it to an updated version of the old ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).
