Naming Conventions for Image Files

When you save HTML files or RTF files with external graphics, LabVIEW saves the control and indicator terminals to graphic files with consistent names, as follows:

The first letter is a c or an i, depending on if the terminal is a control or an indicator.
If the terminal represents an array, the dimension, such as 2d, follows the first letter.
A short name that represents the data type follows the dimension.

The following table lists example image filenames.

Name	Terminal
ci32.jpg	control, 32-bit signed integer
i2di32.jpg	indicator, 2D array of 32-bit signed integer
c3dstr.jpg	control, 3D array of strings

If you select the JPEG graphic format to save a VI named Test.vi, the following JPEGs result.

VI elements	JPEG filename
VI icon	testi.jpg
VI connector	testc.jpg
VI front panel	testp.jpg
VI block diagram	testd.jpg
VI hierarchy window	testh.jpg
SubVI icons	subVI_namei.jpg
