Problem in placing controls and indicator on imported pictures

hi.
i have a problem in placing controls and indicator on imported pictures on labview front pannel.
when i place a control or indicator on imported picture ..the control or indicator don't stay at the top of picture but go behind the picture...
kindly tell me what to do to avoid this....as complete project has been made and now i have to place all controls and indicator of front pannel on to a picture.

The Front Panel is built in layers. Each new control or decoration you add is placed in the top most layer.
To change this, select the picture, click the "Reorder" button (that's the rightmost button in the row of buttons on the toolbar, the one with the 2 arrows forming a circle), and select Move to Back. Your picture will be moved to the background and your controls will be in front of it.
Try to take over the world!

  • Removing the default (View As Icon) for the control and Indicator

    If you remove the default selection View As Icon  for all the control and indicator, it is good for the programmer for easy to visualize the Block diagram code.

    This has already been suggested - http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Default-Option-Do-NOT-Place-Front-Panel-Terminal-as-Icon/idi-p/926871
    Also, note that you can already change it on your computer as mentioned there.

  • Problem with custom control and focus

    I've a problem with the focus in a custom control that contains a TextField and some custom nodes.
    If i create a form with some of these custom controls i'm not able to navigate through these fields by using the TAB key.
    I've implemented a KeyEvent listener on the custom control and was able to grab the focus and forward it to the embedded TextField by calling requestFocus() on the TextField but the problem is that the TextField won't get rid of the focus anymore. Means if i press TAB the first embedded TextField will get the focus, after pressing TAB again the embedded TextField in the next custom control will get the focus AND the former focused TextField still got the focus!?
    So i'm not able to remove the focus from an embeded TextField.
    Any idea how to do this ?

    Here you go, it contains the control, skin and behavior of the custom control, the css file and a test file that shows the problem...

  • Problems with remote control and user accounts - error 1759?

    We're running:
    -XP Pro SP2 clients with Zen SP1 IR3a agent, 4.91 SP2 Netware client.
    -We are NOT running Middle Tier.
    -Novell servers are running Netware 6.5 SP7, E-directory 8.7.3.10b or 8.8.
    -Zen server is also SP1 IR3a.
    We have no problem using remote control on workstation objects. We are having intermittent issues with remote controlling user objects. When the issue occurs, we receive the following error, "Error 1759: The selected user is not logged in on any workstations" even though the user is in fact logged in. After some more research, it appears that the "networkAddress" attribute of the user object is blank so we feel that this is the root cause. My question is what would cause the networkAddress attribute to randomly not update? For instance we had a user (verified his login) who we could not remote via the user object (workstation object worked). We checked his networkAddress attribute and found that it was empty. User rebooted and logged in again and his networkAddress attribute populated, and then we could remote control him via the user object. Now this isn't always the case after a reboot. There doesn't appear to be any pattern to when the networkAddress attribute does or does not update. In fact, this particular user has a laptop so he boots it up fresh every morning yet he was not showing a network address when he logged in initially today.
    We've followed the troubleshooting steps in Novell Documentation without any success. Is there anything else that we might be missing, especially with respect to getting the networkAddress attribute to update? We ran a DSreport on that attribute and found about 500 out of a total of 1500 users had no networkAddress. Some of those are sure to be legitimate but that number is much too high for the number of people that should be in the office.
    I've read some older threads on the subject but none of them really provide a firm solution. Also most of the older threads reference Middle Tier which we are not using.
    Thanks in advance.

    > 4.91 SP2 Netware client.
    You could try this TID:
    "A user will no longer have an entry in their "Network Address" attribute
    even though they are logged into the eDirectory Tree."
    http://www.novell.com/support/viewCo...1262&sliceId=1
    "Resolution"
    "This was fixed in the 4.91 SP3 client. NWFS.SYS was modified so that it
    will check the monitor connection on a reconnect and if it is not connected
    close the connection and try and get a new monitor connection to the tree.
    Prior to the 4.91 SP3 client, the solution is to have the user login again
    so that it issues the NDS Finish Login request again that will populate
    Network Address again."

  • Problem with remote control and Windows 7 - HP Pavilion 6301eu

    Hi John:
    Thanks but, I had already done this. I was having THAT problem with Encore (could not even initialize before tanking) when I first installed it and that's when I updated the Roxio engine. I don't know what else there is to update or correct at this point.
    There was one thing that occurred to me: When I was using XP, I had to disable Open GL in order to get Encore to stabilize. I've heard one recommendation for Encore that one must disable graphics acceleration. I would like try that here except I can't figure out how to do that in Windows 7.
    I've been Googling "Windows 7 Disable Graphics Accel" and have come up with nothing useful.
    Thanks for your help though and if you have any other ideas, I'm all ears.

  • Digital control and indicator customisation

    Hi, just a quick simple question. How do u customise a digital control or indicator. Basically i would like them four times as large as they are as standard. Any other help in how to customise different parts of the digitals would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks Stuart

    The height of a digital control/indicator adjusts itself to the size of the font you choose for the numbers inside. To adjust the size of the increment/decrement buttons, this is done in the control editor. Right click on the control and choose Advanced>Customize. There's a little icon on the tool bar that looks like a wrench. Click on this to enter customize mode and you can change it to look like you want.

  • Problem with Quicktime controls and commands

    I'm finding the best way to put a video together is to edit individual pieces with QT Pro. Problem is that it's pretty darned annoying because mouse and keyboard controls don't always work as they should.
    Sometimes I'll press the space bar and instead of playing, the volume mutes/unmutes...there is a blue glow around the volume controls and until I click around and unlodge it somehow, it stays that way.
    Other times, I'll click on the timeline and instead of the playhead moving to where I click, it will move forward a little bit....or it won't move at all.
    And on top of that, I still haven't found solid documentation on when the playhead turns dark, as opposed to staying "hollow"...or whether or not that's relevant to the problem.
    I've found plenty of resources that have shortcut keys listed, some of them "undocumented." But I feel as if I'm missing something...is there anything I can do to avoid these problems, or at least is there a rhyme or reason as to how they happen?
    Thanks.

  • Iphoto doesn't recognize jpg's and won't import pictures

    Recently updated from iPhoto 09 to 11 and iPhoto won't import pictures from Kodak camera. Says it doesn't recognize file type "jpg". Imported pic last week from same camera just fine. Also upgraded to OSX 10.6.8– this is when the problem started. I don't want a work around solution, as I know there is a fix for this. Just can't find it.

    There isn't a fix. Workaround: use a USB Card Reader.

  • Automatic directory creation and renaming when importing pictures

    Hello,
    I was wondering if what I'm trying to do is possible with iPhoto or anything in Leopard.
    When I import pictures, I want to create folders and rename the pictures based on the date. For an example, when I import pictures taken on November 10th, 2007, I want to create folder "2007", then under that folder create "11", then create "20071110", then rename the photos in "20071110_001.jpg" format.
    Is it possible?
    Thanks.

    No, actually I did all your posts all the way to the end. How can you tell? because I answered this question
    The goal.
    When importing the pictures through my Mac Mini, copy new pictures in the Samba server using the same structure, NOT in my LOCAL Mac Mini.
    in my very first reply to you. I did this when I said:
    No.
    Was there some part of that that was confusing?
    iPhoto will not do this, and, frankly, I know of nothing that will on the Mac. If you're confident with AppleScript you may be able to whip up a Folder Action to do it where you:
    1. Download the pics to a folder in the Finder. Have the attached script read the exif data, rename the files, and then create the required folders on the Samba server and copy the files over. But I have to say that I don't know if you can get a Finder Script to read exif data. I certainly could find nothing in the library. Nor is there anything in the Automator library that I can see. You might like to post on the AppleScript forum:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=724
    where some of the folks over there might be able to help.
    2. Then have an attached script that will automatically import the files into iPhoto. This is relatively straightforward with either Automator or Hazel.

  • Placing Illustrator and InDesign Files, Importing text and forms into Library

    Firstly, is there any way at all to maintain the working elements of an Illustrator or Indesign file if placing in Muse, is it even possible?
    Example: I have a fully created website layout with text boxes and vector images saved in Illustrator.
    I'm wondering, can this be bumped to Muse using the 'Library' feature as a whole, as elements like the contact form were in the Katie's Cafe tutorial?
    I understand how that works for singular images, but is it at all possible with a complex image that contains both text and vector, or does this image need to be sliced up and saved as individual elements. Is there anyway to extract the text boxes from Illustrator or InDesign as they are? How are working text boxes created in InDesign as mentioned in the Katie's Cafe tutorial?
    Thanks so much in advance, and sorry if this is totally obvious!

    Hm, okay.
    How would I know if the file is corrupt?
    Well, you often don't, until it crashes and is unrecoverable. Then it's too late. But "insanely swollen file size" is a symptom. However, I can't know if your file size is reasonable or not, depends on the content, and it sounds like your content is pretty heavyweight. For instance - I thought it was possilbe to strip out custom brushes when saving AI files to bring file size down. I've never touched an AI file that was too large because of the number of swatches. So, depending on how much you have in there, then maybe your two-gig file isn't on the verge of crashing and burning.
    I did inherit it, but have since used it as a template and "saved as" various versions. I'm not really sure if it started in 5 or not.
    Cool trick: Click on Help, then hold down Control when you click on About. This will take you to a "Component Information" screen, and in the lower-left-hand corner you can see the Document History. So you can learn if you inherited a file that started in CS5. Or in CS3, or in PageMaker.
    General best-practices as recommended by forum regulars is to finish a file in the format in which it started. If a file has to be moved from an older version to a newer version, then exporting IDML or INX before moving is advised. This is because of a lot of anecdotal evidence that opening up old files in newer versions and then doing a bunch of work is correlated with file corruption.
    I have not tried to export-to-IDML-and-reopen, but I certainly will. What does this do exactly?
    Well, it'll do a bunch of different things. It'll reinterpret the file format, which can strip out corruption. It'll strip out all image previews. If there is cruft in your file, then this will probably remove it.

    what to do ? what should I modify in the rowset control, if I want to deal with string values til the real insert ?

    What were you trying to import and from where?  You weren't trying to import an existing library into a new one were you? That is the wrong way to update a library!
    When upgrading iPhoto just open the old library with the new application and let iPhoto update the library.
    If that's not what you did explain in detail the workflow you followed after installing the new version of iPhoto.

  • I built an application to store de front panel of vi in a JPEG image file, but native labels of controls and indicator are unclear after image capture, some one knows why? I have a working example you can test.

    For some label colors like yellow or green, this defect is almost invisible, but for black color or any dark tone like brown or dark gray after file creation appears unclear labels.

    In more details, JPEG uses lossy compression and is not really suitable for cartoon-like pictures with objects containing high-contrast sharp features such as lines and boxes (as found in front panels). This has to do with the truncation in the 2D cosine transforms which gives you weak ripples near sharp edges, not visible in typical photographs.
    Of course you could set the quality to 100% (optional input) for no truncation with a trade-off of larger files, but it's pretty pointless. JPEG is only meant to be used for photographs.
    PNG is a fantastic format (intended as a GIF replacement), uses lossless compression, and wins in all aspects over jpeg for your intended use. All modern applications can deal with them (e.g. you can insert them into word or powerpo
    int) and any modern browser can display them. (see e.g. the PNG home site for more info).
