I want to Create a Project that combines TWO VIs, is it possible?

Hi every one
I am working on a project that essentially is split into two part at the moment;
1. Data Acquisition - (In LabVIEW SignalExpress)
2. Data Manipulation
Now I want to combine them together so that they can work sequentially together at the same time (sequence being ACQUIRE DATA, then MANIPLUATE DATA).
Data Acquisition
I am reading two channels simultaneously. So SignalExpress (SE) is configured such that it ACQUIRES the data for (lets say) 2 seconds and then it WRITES this data as .lvm at a certain location.
Now because of the recording options available in SE (i.e. starting and stopping conditions met?) I have favored SE for data acquisition.
When I generate a LabVIEW code of this SE code, VI comes up fine, but I loose automatic control of "Stop Recording Data", i.e. user has to run the generated LabVIEW code, and the user has to MANUALLY start "Recording" and "Stop" it manually as well.
Question No1: How can I confugure the Data Acquisition VI directly in LabVIEW with the ability to ,
a) When user hits "Run", VI starts Acquiring the data simultaneously for specified time, and when that time has lapsed, automatically stops recoding it
b) The same VI also "Writes" the recorded data (specified time) at a specific location.
Data Manipulation
This VI does some data manipulation on already recoded data and is working fine.
Question: How can I best integrate the both parts of my project (Data Acquisition + Data Manipulation) in just the ONE VI, eliminating the need of having to acquire the data in SE and the manipulating it with LabVIEW?
I need help!
Cheers

What you are wanting to do is very easy. Check out the examples that ship with LV. You will find code for doing data acquisition, signal analysis and program architecture. You might also want to consider getting some good training to answer your basic question, or go through the getting started materials that ship with LV.

Can I create a project that dynamically pulls in outside content.

I need to create a project that has a block of information
via an image or a html block that can reference information outside
of the project. The idea here is I want to include Images that
drive users to other presentations, but would like to make those
blocks dynamic, such that I can modify the block outside and not
have to edit and re-generate the presentation from
Captivate.

The generic answer to your question is that Captivate does
not have dynamic load capability.
You would need to create that functionality in Flash and
import it into Captivate as an animation. The process is fairly
straightforward and any decent Flash developer could do it for you.
And, as Rick alluded to, Paul Dewhurst is a very decent Flash
developer.
The only really tricky part seems to be making sure the Flash
animation takes into account the internal structure of the
published Captivate project. Published Captivate projects have a
predefined layer order that may affect what you're trying to
do.

Can you create a book that combines exports based on multiple versions?

I am trying to create a single export job to a database table that pulls hierarchies from 2 different versions in DRM. Using the Version Variables, I have flagged the two different versions specifically for this export processes. However, when i try to create a 'book' to combine the exports, it forces me to choose a single version. Is there a way to bypass the choice of version within the 'book' definition so that it simply defaults to whatever version is indicated within the individual exports?
Thanks.

I don't think ( per my knowledge ) we have a way to create a book that combines exports that points to different versions, as you said you are exporting the results to a DB table, define the order in which the exports to be executed and for the first one in the target section “select clear all rows”, and for the second one select “do not clear the table”.
Now try creating individual CFG's for these exports and call them part of a single batch in the appropriate order, I know it's little painful to do this, but can't help it.

I want to be able to fill out the form and it place itself into Sheet 1 without changing everytime. I can index the array from the form, but it changes everytime.

You think it would be the other way around.
Just speculation, but forms probably came to iOS first because of likely use for data entry in the field that syncs back to the Mac. On a small screen with a touch interface, forms make inputing values easier.
On the Mac, with its bigger screen, typing directly into a data table often works well enough.

If I want to create a Group that is Group by page,Is that feasible?

Hi, Expert
I want to limit record number(50 records) per page,
and it will have a total column which is amount Salary,
so now I had set some formulas into report
First(in report Details)
WhilePrintingRecords;
Global   numbervar   DataCount   :=   DataCount   +   1;
ps.This variable counts record number and limits record within 50 records per page
   when record passover 50, it will re-set variable to 0(this formulas set in Group Footer)
second(in Group Footer)
WhilePrintingRecords;
   Global numbervar DataCount := 0;
ps.for re-set variable
third(New Page After)
Truncate ({@DataCount}/50)*50={@DataCount} and OnLastRecord=false
ps.For Next page
Fourth
WhilePrintingRecords;
Global numbervar pagetol;
   salarytol:=salarytol +{table;1.amount}
Fifth
Global numbervar pagetol;
if (Truncate ({@DataCount}/50)*50)={@DataCount} then
   pagetol:=0;
If I want to create a Group that is Group by page(50 records per page), because I want
to grand total of salary per page,Is that feasible?
How to achieve this goal??
Thanks & Regards

Thanks lanWaterMan
Actually, my care is Report View,
my report will have Three Summary columns,
one is for 50 records,
second is for data type,
another is for all of records.
I will put the First Summary column behind(below) the last records
So it will look like "Grand total"(for 50 records 1 total).
And the Second Summary column will lay on Group footer(sum data group by data type).
And the last Summary column will lay on every page's bottom(sum all of data).
If I put first summary column in page footer, It will lay on bottom of page, not behind the last records(per fiftieth record).
So I think if I create group1 for 50 records(put in first Summary column on group1 footer) and group2 for data type(put in second Summary column on group2 footer),
then put the last summary column into page footer. Maybe, it will look like what i want.
Thanks & Regards

I want to create a form that i can drop pictures in a certain place

i want to create a form that i can drop pictures into

Unfortunately Formscentral does not support drag and drop pictures into your form. If you want to form filler submit their images with other form data, you can use file attachment field. Add an file attachment field when design form, so that form filler can add their image file into it and submit with other form data.

Using tables - wanting to create long table that runs from page to page

I want to create a table to which I can add rows as I work (alphabetizing). The final table will end up being 6-7 pages long. Inserting a page break did nothing--all rows below where the page break is still disappear and do not go onto the next page. This is a Word feature that I'm hoping I can have on appleworks. Does it exist?
I cannot put Word on this computer since I'm not running an OS high enough (I have 10.2.8)

Cyndi:
Just wondering if you found your answer. I am having the same issue. I did finally figure out after several days of reading searches how to add pages to your table which is in >Format > document > then select the box for how many pages you want to go down or across in the box to the lower right corner. Then you can insert cells by highlighting the row by holding option key as you drag across the row & in Table click insert cells. Hope that helps. You can determine whether the table is horz. or vert. in > file > page set up. Click on the image of the page/man that displays the orientation that most closely fits your needs.
However, the problem that I'm continuing to have is that the >insert page break command does not appear to work in Tables. It remains greyed out no matter what I've tried. Short of trying some "tell" command that a fellow using 10.4. in Pages suggested. I'm in Appleworks 6 running on my iBook, as you are. I saw a reply from ms Peggy suggesting that there is some difficulty in getting that to work, and so far I would have to agree. Her idea was to add cells such that they would fall over the page break, which you can see using the >page view command in the Window drop down menu. But that would not be so neat with the lines running vertically from the top of page to the first box. I guess it could be squeezed down to the size of the "break". Is that all there is ?

I want to create a tail that behaves like a string

I want to create a tail and fasten one end to an object. The object is translating and has a small amount of rotation oscillation. I want the tail to behave like a string that has very little stiffness. It should curve from side to side as the object oscillates. I could probably figure this out by experimentation but I would much appreciate assistance.

Well, I don't know what you mean by "the object is translating", but to make a tail that behaves with a lot of curve, it needs to be comprised of segments. I would go with a replicator of a bunch of circles and then use the replicator sequence behavior to animate the curvature.

Creating a user thats saved to a table? possible or not???

Ok.....so my uni assignment is to make an SQL database and then a front end in access...for a shoe store...i can make test databases and get access to connect to the sql....yay
now im never going to get a brilliant grade because im TERRIBLE at all sort of programming (im doing computer networks not programming yet i have to do lots :(..)..............BUT one thing in the assignment states is that the shoe store would like cutomers to 'sign up' as it were....if i could get it to work that would be like one 'trick' thing that might get me a couple more marks...
SO can i create a user that is saved to the customer table easily? or...would it take lots of knowledge and years of experience or can someone point me to some sample code or a tutorial...????
or can this not be done and im barking up the wrong tree here?
thanks in advance to everyone who is better at this than me!!!

You can create a simple form with two text item each to input userid (text1) and password (text2)
You add a submit button and you create a WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED trigger
In that trigger you code something like this
Insert into Customer_Table (UserId,Password)
Values (text1.text,text2.text)
commit;
there you are... you can add many users as you want.
and when you create log in page. you create also two text item each to input userid (text1) and password (text2)
You add a submit button and you create a WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED trigger
In that trigger you code something like this
Declare
VarID Varchar2....
VarPass Varchar2.....
Begin
select UserId,Password into VarID,VarPass where UserId = VarID
exception
when others then
RAISE .... 'Wrong ID'
End;
If VarPass = text2.text then 'OK' else 'Wrong Password'

Is it possible to create a component that takes two inputs?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to create a custom JSF component that takes two input values and assigns them to a managed bean?
For example, a component that displays two input boxes?
The tag would look something like this:
<my:component value1="#{bean.value1}" value2="#{bean.value2}" />I've tried, but I can't get the values to update the managed bean.
I'm starting to doubt that it is possible, as their is only 1 setSubmittedValue method :(
Thank you,

Hi Prosun Bondopadhyay ,
Component controller is the base of a wda component. its can be considered as the base class. all the other views can be considered as the sub classes of component controller. so without the base class there is no existence for sub class rt?
like we can use all the methods and attributes of a component controller(main class) across all the view(sub class) and the viceversa is not possible.
hence we cannot create a wda without component controller.

How do you create a part that has two through holes with a single net connecting to both.

I attempted to create a part that contained 2 through holes with a copper strip between them so they would connect to a single net, but one of the holes (pin 2) gets rejected by Ultiboard as an unconnected entitiy. Is there a way to define the second hole (pin 2) in such a way as to mitigate the problem?
Thanks, Tod
Solved!

Hi
It is quite simple to do so:
when making the footprint, you just put your two TH pins where you need them. name them 1 and 2.
Then in Multisim, when making a new component with the component wizzard,in step 2 make a 1-pin component, and select your desired footprint(which has two pins).
thenin step 3, make/choose your 1-pin symbol.
In step 5 you can map the footprint to the symbol , just use both footprint pins for the same symbol pin.
When using it in your schematic, you'll see one pin, in the layout, there will be two pins connected together..
Good luck

How to combine two Vis

Hello Every One,
Can anyone help me in combining these two attached VIs please. What I am trying to do is convert 16bit tif image (attached) to 64 RGB image and then only crop the image, however I do not know how to attached these two VIs. Please someone help
Many thanks

Hi Lazer,
Thank you for your question. Firstly, the image you've attached is blank, have you uploaded the file in the appropriate format?
I see that the 'Grayscale to Color' VI converts the image from a Grayscale U16 image to a U64 RGB image. Is this what you wish the VI to do? The second VI simply crops the image.
Do both of these VI's function as you wish them to, as separate entities? If so, the issue is calling them in a sequence, is that correct? If so, you can do this by simply making a third, Main VI, which calls these two VI's as sub-VI's.

I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite. I want to create one movie that includes these short movies that I can then either burn to a DVD or show in iMovie's Theater. How can I do it?

I have created several short (3-5 minute) movies using iMovie 10.0.6 and Yosemite. I want to combine those short movies into one movie that I can loop and burn on a DVD or show in iMovie Theater. How can I do it? The movies are now shared to iTunes.

Another easy way to fix this.
What I've noticed is that upon upgrading your projects and events to work with iMovie 10, initially it will work... Until you quit iMovie and reopen it again. Any events with hashtags will show up without the star next to the iMovie event. SO, if you happen to read this, after upgrading to iMovie 10 from its predecessor, immediately change the event name to NOT include a hashtag/pound symbol.
Otherwise, if it's too late, you can either do the above or this...
Hold down option and click on iMovie. This will prompt you Locate, Create a New Library, Cancel this window, or Choose a different library. What you want to do is create a new library, call it whatever you want to, this will only be temporary. After the program opens, it should be a blank Library. Then go to File > Open Library > iMovie Library (your original library) and proceed to change the name of your events. Quit the program. Go into your Movies folder in Finder, delete the library you temporarily created, and your back in business.
