Issue Details

I am creating a Type Definition from a Cluster to reproduce it in several instances of a Web VI using G Web Development Software. When copying a created Cluster directly in the program the following error message is shown:

Solution

G Web Development Software cannot use Type Definitions on the Front Panel. If you need to do this, then using LabVIEW Web Services would be a better option.

As LabVIEW allows Type Definitions on the Front Panel, a LabVIEW Web Service can be called from the G Web Development Software. An example can be found here
