Package list

The package list is a table which displays information related to all the packages. Each row is a package and each column is the package property.

Figure 25 - The package list

As shown in the figure above, all the information in one row belongs to one package. The symbol at the beginning of each package reflects the install status. The significance of each symbol is as follows:

	This indicates that the package is installed in the selected LabVIEW version.
	This indicates that the package is installed in the selected LabVIEW version but it is not the latest version. There is a newer version available in your library.
	This indicates that the package is not compatible with the selected LabVIEW version or operating system. Note: you will only see these types of packages if you have disable the option called Show Only Installable Packages in the General tab of the options window.
No Symbol	This means that the package is compatible with selected LabVIEW version or operating system but is not installed yet.
