(...) Hi, This is a *minor* bug in RoboLab. The sub-vi diagram will have begin and end terminal labels swapped, but the program will function properly. Use the text tool to rename the terminal labels. Thought it should have been rectified in ver (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Although they look identical, they must be different since they failed to wire to the blocks next to (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) It is a leftover from LabVIEW. When you create a sub.vi, LabVIEW reuses the name of whatever is wired to the control/indicator. This behavior makes perfect sense in LabVIEW but much less so in Robolab. FWIW, the names are little more than (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | sub-vi begin vs end control
|

Hi, After a sub-vi is created, there are two controls created namely begin and end. Would someone explain why they are backwards? That means, it creates an "end" control linked to the beginning of the sub-vi, while the "begin" at the end. Thank in (...)
