Carl, not to be too eager, but did you have any luck getting ActiveX to work with 7.6? Can you post an update on this forum when you succeed? Thank you!

The current stable release of Ignition (7.6.1) has the ActiveX fix.

Hi,

that doesn't work for me.  
Using the ActiveX module I own (2.5.0.180) I have "Faulted - API Version Mismatch" error.  
I have to download the latest version of ActiveX Module? Where can I find It?  
My Ignition version is 7.6.1 (b2278).  
Thanks

Try using this version of ActiveX.

The Installation works.  
When I try to insert into a main window I get

IllegalStateException: OleObject is not created.

Yeah, this is an error that was introduced in 7.5. If you highlight the window you’ll see that the component gets created, and the component should properly show up in the project browser under the window it was added to. Once you highlight the component, you can resize it to a proper size and it should work properly from then on.
