IDKnown Issue
110487

Return		Deleting cluster constant in statechart configuration guard/action diagram can crash LabVIEW
In the Guard or Action diagram of the Configure State dialog box, if you try to delete the contents of a block diagram cluster that is typedef'ed, and then delete the cluster constant itself, LabVIEW might crash.

Workaround: When deleting a cluster constant in the Configure State dialog box, delete the entire constant at once instead of deleting the contents first.

Return		Clean up diagram creates loose wires
In some cases, clean up diagram can create loose wires which causes the VI to become broken.

Workaround: N/A

421985

Return		In certain cases, using the replace VI within the Guard tab in a transition can crash LabVIEW
When altering a transition inside a statechart, replacing a VI specified inside the Guard tab can cause the transition to get into a bad state and crash after attempting to make further changes.

Workaround: Do not use the replace option. Add the new VI and delete the original.
