If you include a palette file (.mnu) in a project library, you can set it as the default palette file for all VIs that the project library owns. Complete the following steps to set the default palette file for a LabVIEW project library.

1. From the Project Explorer window, locate the project library icon above the palette file (.mnu) you want to set as the default palette file. If you do not have a .mnu file, add the palette file.
2. Right-click the project library and select Properties from the shortcut menu to display the Project Library Properties dialog box.
3. On the General Settings page, select the palette file you want to set as default from the Default Palette pull-down menu. You also can set the default palette file from the Item Settings page by selecting the .mnu file in the Contents tree and place a checkmark in the Default Palette checkbox.
4. Click the OK button to close the Project Library Properties dialog box and save your changes.

You also can use the Library:Create method to set the default palette file programmatically.
