Note LabVIEW classes do not support Invoke Nodes. LabVIEW class methods are member VIs. If you use the Create button or if you drag a method directly to the block diagram, a subVI appears. Methods in LabVIEW classes appear as subVIs rather than Invoke Nodes. You cannot define LabVIEW class properties in this version of LabVIEW.

1. Click the Create button or the Create Write button to attach a node with the selected property or method to your mouse cursor and add the node to the block diagram.

The Create Write button dims when you select a method or read-only property. You also can drag a property or method from the Properties and Methods list directly to the block diagram.
2. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for any other properties and methods you want to create and add to the block diagram.
