Why does a LabVIEW executable generate two taskbar buttons on the taskbar?

When a LabVIEW executable is run, it generate two taskbar buttons (with the same name) in the task bar each of them pointing to the same window (panel). Is there a way to prevent it from creating two buttons?
thanks

Add the following line to your executable's .ini file
HideRootWindow=True
There's a KnowledgeBase item here.

  • Why does Safari run quickly on two machines but not the third?

    Hi all,
    I have a curious and frustrating problem. There are three Macs in one room (G5 PPC, iMac G5 Intel, MacBook Intel). The two intel macs are connected to the internet via Airport, the PPC via ethernet. Until a few weeks ago all three Macs ran Safari at the speed of light. Now the PPC has slowed to snail's pace or worse.
    I have read loads of posts, I have cleared caches, reset safari, thrown preferences and bookmarks away, you name it, I think I did it. Been onto the ISP, reset the router. I even did a system reinstall.
    This is amazingly frustrating as I can load a page on the other two Macs in less than 2 seconds, while timing the PPC, the same page takes over a minute.
    I have had some hardware issues, but they were resolved by an erase and install about a month ago. So now I am wondering if this is indicating that I still have an underlying hardware issue?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    I rather doubt it is a hardware issue, much more likely to be software issue or a connection issue.
    Do you use open DNS?
    (First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl.)
    Adding DNS codes to your Network Settings, should gives good results in terms of speed-up:
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (An explanation of why that is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
    Open DNS also provides an anti-phishing feature: http://www.opendns.com/solutions/homenetwork/anti-phishing/ )
    Wikipedia also has an interesting article about Open DNS:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDNS
    Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
    This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.

  • Why does my newsstand take up two spots?

    why does my newsstand take up two spots?

    well, i found out why, and here it is...
    there was an invisible folder entitled "volumes" which contained 300 gb worth of unsuccessful time machine transfers. i would not have been able to ever find it or know of it's existence (since it never returned any search results) had it not been for some innocuous little microsoft word virus. (i ran virus check and found multiple copies of the same word file infected, and was able to open each in finder view to follow them back to their originating folder(s), and the rest is history)

  • Why does iTunes say I have two different total numbers of movies?

    On the sidebar, it lists 371 Movies. When I'm in Movies with everything listed, the number at the bottom next to total number of hours is 372 Movies. 372 Movies is the correct number of movies. I have all of those movies also loaded into iTunes on my laptop running 10.7. These are all movies which are hosted locally on a hard drive; none of them are iCloud downloads or matches. So why does it think I have 1 less movie on the side bar? Is there a way to find out if one particular film hasn't loaded properly or can't be read for some reason? Thanks

    The sidebar lists # of unplayed (not completed) items.
    They should have a blue dot (not played) or half blue dot (started but not completed) next to the name.

  • Why does FireFox open as a very small box in the top l/h corner and i have to resize it every time

    Why does FireFox open as a very small box in the top l/h corner and i have to resize it every time this only occurs on the initial opening up of F/Fx after boot-up

    Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.<br />
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

  • Why does my screen come up dark when I press the camera icon?

    Why does my screen come up dark when I press the Camera icon?  I can neither take pictures nor look at the photos I have saved.

    Doulbe tab the home key to see the task bar.  Touch and hold any of those icons until they jiggle, then delete them by touching the minus sign.   Then reboot the pad by holding the sleep and home buttons until the apple logo appears.  Ignore the red slider.
    You either have another app open that is using the camera, or you just have too much stuff in memory.  The reset process should clear it up.

  • Why does my macbook pro retina display shutdown while entering the administer account

    why does my macbook pro retina display shutdown while entering the administer account

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through a long procedure each time

    I want new tab to open to home page and why does firefox not have a simple check box in the options because I can't keep going through the long tedious procedure each time I install firefox. It is something that should be in the options tab , and I want to know why it isn't. I am totally frustrated with firefox and getting ready to switch.

    You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
    If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

    Why does a pop up screen ask me to extract the image using Lightroom Installer, when all I want to do is view it ?

    My local computer shop solved the problem. Apparently when you download cloud it changes a lot of settings.
    So second issue.
    Why do I now get asked to burn to disc rather than saving to my hard drive when I want to export from Lightroom ?

    It's not like playing a tape. It has to convert it from whatever format you currently have into a codec suitable for editing (Apple Intermediate). This will take longer or shorter depending how compressed your original format is, and on the ability of your CPUs to catch up.
