The New dialog provides access to create to [[[VI]]s, Polymorphic VIs, LabVIEW Projects, LabVIEW Classes, LabVIEW Project Libraries, Custom Controls (see Control editor), Run-Time Menus, and XControls. VIs can be created from the New dialog using templates that create the VI with a common Design Patterns already established. Other toolkits, like QControls, add options to create other types of content to the New dialog. To access the New dialog from the Getting Started, Project Explorer, VI Front Panel, or VI Block Diagram windows, select File-->New... from the menu bar.
