Hi all,
I just experienced an odd LV error message.
I was trying to wire the output from a decrement function onto a FOR 
loop count terminal. The decrement was wired to a numeric control. The 
error message says:

"You may not wire to a floating object. Move the object to where it 
belongs and then wire to it".

Any ideas as to what it means?  There's nothing in the LV help prog nor 
in DevZone. What is a floating object?

A floating object is a terminal which is placed over a loop but not 
inside. Move the terminal in and out of the loop and it should work.

What it mean is that you when you create an object (in this case a numeric control) that partially sit on top of something (While loop, for loop, case .) it is a floating object - recognizable by a large black drop shadow under the object -. To "unfloat" the object just move it around until the drop shadow disapear (so LV can figure out who own the object).
