Switching Between Strictly-Typed and Weakly-Typed Control Refnums
There are four ways to switch between a strictly-typed control refnum and a weakly-typed control refnum.
Right-click a strictly-typed control refnum and remove the checkbox from the Include Data Type item in the shortcut menu to make it weakly-typed.
Right-click a weakly-typed control refnum and select Include Data Type from the shortcut menu to make it strictly-typed. This method does not work when the class of data is too general, such as GObject or General.
Right-click a strictly-typed control refnum and select Select Ctrl Type from the shortcut menu to change the class and disable the Include Data Type option, which makes the control refnum weakly-typed.
Right-click a strictly-typed control refnum and select Select VI Server Class from the shortcut menu to choose a generic control class, such as Generic, GObject»GObject, or GObject»Control»Control. Generic control classes cannot be strictly-typed.
