Issue Details

I have succesfully loaded .NET assemblies in LabVIEW, but the control box is missing after I select the particular .NET assembly.

Solution

Possibly when adding .NET assembly from external sources, it is not fully tested in LabVIEW. Probably the size of the .net container of the .NET assembly is not defined so when added to LabVIEW which makes the container becomes missing. 

How to set size .NET container
  1. Programatically:
  • Use Property Node to edit the height of the controls
Modify size of .NET controls
  1. Manually
  • Insert .NET controls
  • Resize the .NET control. Resizing the .NET control will remove the autosizing of the controls.

Additional Information

Ensure that you are using the same version of the external .NET assemblies with LabVIEW version. For example, if you use 32-bit .NET assemblies, you must use LabVIEW 32-bit for the code to run.
