User-defined variables in Search Results pane

I am working with user-defined variables for WebHelp output.
I have successfully added the variables to the topic, the displayed
topic title, the TOC, and the Index entries. The problems lies in
getting the search output to display the specified variable text.
For example, the base topic title is "Introduction to XX". I
use a variable to change the XX to YY throughout the project;
however, when I generate the output and then Search for YY, the
search results pane displays "Introduction to XX" even though the
displayed topic is titled, correctly, "Introduction to YY". I am
assuming, because the topic title is not adhering to the variables,
that the search results displays the metadata <title>.
What should I do so the search results title syncs with the
other data?
Carol

Welcome to the forum.
There have been two posts about this recently so do a search
for more information.
Basically the search results show the Topic Title as defined
in Topic Properties. Your variable is in the Topic Heading at the
top of the page. Not the same thing.
I suggest you request a feature change.

  • Shared & user-defined variable behavior when they are passed an error?

    If a [TRUE] error condition is preset at its input terminal:
    What is the expected behavior for a shared variable which is being read?             My guess: To return the default value for the datatype being read.
    What is the expected behavior for a user-defined variable which is being read?     My guess: To return the default value for the datatype being read.
    What is the expected behavior for a shared variable which is being written?         My guess: To not update the value of the variable.
    What is the expected behavior for a user-defined variable which is being written? My guess: To not update the value of the variable.
    Are my guesses at the behavior correct?  If not, what is the real behavior?  This is for LabVIEW version 11 and newer.
    Thanks!

    Thank you Arham!   I'm sorry you had to go to the trouble of creating a test VI to get the answer. I thought that this might have been documented somewhere and I was just missing it. It still may be documented somewhere but sometimes creating a test VI is the quicker path to an answer than is a search for where the documentation is stored and the test VI is probably the more conclusive answer anyway.
    In any case, thanks to your answer, it is now documented in a manner that should not be too hard for others to find, should they have the same question.
    Thanks again.

  • Applying User Defined Variables across project

    Hello,
    I'm working with the User Defined Variables feature and can't
    seem to figure out how to apply a variable/value across all topics.
    I may have misunderstood the definition of what this is supposed to
    do, so it may be user error. It is my understanding that if you
    have information that use repeatedly, for instance if I refer to a
    product name in numerous topics and the product name changes, I can
    set up a user defined variable and set this to update all the
    occurrences. I can change it going in each topic and each sentence
    where the occurence is by right-clicking the word and selecting
    Insert User Defined Variable. Any ideas as to what I can do to make
    a global update. Also, I'm reading the help, but still seem to be
    missing something.
    Thanks,
    Michele

    Thank you, Peter! This article is very informative and much
    more clear (to me) than what I read in the RoboHelp help manual. I
    understand now that this feature is used when you are creating
    topics in a project and anticipating what may change--in which case
    you insert the variable as you need it, then if it changes in the
    future you can update it easily. I was looking at it as more of a
    global search and replace to update information that already
    exists. I think it will come in handy with our documentation
    projects.
    Thanks again. :-)

  • Sharing User Defined Variables across projects

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if it's possible to share User Defined Variables across projects. What I have in mind is that I would like to have my User Defined Variables configured in a central location and then insert them into my projects as linked variables so that they update automatically when I change their values. For example, I define a variable named Product_Version that has its value set to 9. Then I insert this variable into all my projects as a linked variable. After 2 months the product version changes to 10, so I change the value of the variable to 10 in the location where it is stored and it is automatically updated in all the projects. Can this be done somehow? I'm new to RoboHelp and I can't find any answer. I've been searching for the solution for some time in the product help, on the Internet to no avail. I even contacted Adobe Support and they redirected me to this forum I used Help and Manual before and their way of dealing with user variables was pretty simple.

    Hi there
    Unfortunately RoboHelp doesn't offer up a way to allow this, At least, not directly.
    However, I do believe I found a way to make it happen, The variables are stored in a file named rhvariable.apj. So what you could do is to add this file as a Baggage File to each of your projects that will share the variables.
    Now you would create a Shared Location as well as a new Category in your Resource Manager. This will create a common location to store the apj file.
    Add the Baggage File to the location. Repeat the process for all projects that are sharing the variables.
    Now, when the variable gets changed in any of the participating projects, the shared location should be updated and you can accomplish the goal.
    However, note that even though you will have what you are wanting, it will still require opening each of the participating projects, synchronizing the APJ file and generating the output in order to update it all. No way I'm aware of to escape that.
    Cheers,,, Rick

  • User defined variables transfer data

    Hello
    I am using the etherCAT 9144 chassis and this hardware supports only target scoped FIFO. After a search, I realized that the only way to transfer data from FPGA to Host is by using User defined variables. But these variables do not support FIFO concept. So, which is the best practice to transfer data after measurements ( e.x 10Hz measurement of 15 values ) to host VI ?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    As mentioned, the 9144 only supports scan engine.
    As for what you should do, that really depends on the whole application. For example, what is the master? Are there other systems involved here? Etc. This is a good read in general, although it might not help right this second: http://www.ni.com/white-paper/14151/en/
    From a high level you should decide what you need. If you need deterministic, low latency communication over longer distances from an RT controller, the 9144 is probably the right choice. If you need low-latency+streaming over short distances from an RT controller, you should look into the MXI RIO chassis. If you primarily need non-deterministic low speed (10 hz) data mixed with low-throughput streaming over long distances from a windows or RT host, then the ethernet rio expansion (9146,7,8,9) is probably the right choice. If you need high speed streaming with low latency control over long distances from a windows or RT host, you need a full cRIO controller. Based on what you've posted so far, its uncertain what is the right fit.
    Lets say you're stuck with the 9144 for now. Given that you can easily hit 1 kHz scan cycles, it should be perfectly achievable to "stream" data at 10 Hz. If you run scan engine at 1 kHz then you're oversampling by 100x. Where it gets tricky is that sync requirement. By default the I/O acquisition is synchronized to the scan clock (and you can see when the scan clock is set through an FPGA I/O node). However, you can take full control of a module in the FPGA and read the I/O at any time you please. That is, you can set it up so when DIO0 goes high you immediately sample all 15 AI values. You can then transfer those latched AI values to the host using user defined variables.

  • Custom Quiz: How to update and report user-defined variable?

    Hello,
    I am a novice Captivate 5.5 user.  Thanks to Lilibiri's blog and articles, I have managed to built a custom quiz (all with user-defined variables and advanced actions). 
    The quiz is composed of 2 questions with 4 possible answers each.  Each of the 4 answers have a different score attached to it (i.e. answer a = 4 points; answer b = 3 points; answer c = 2 points; answer d = 1 point).  I have inlcuded a "Feedback Slide" that may appear after each question.  For example, if a person chooses score d, they will get sent to a Feedback slide that basically says they are wrong.  There is a "back" button on the "Feedback" slide that can take them back to the the prior question sllide and they can change and re-submit their answer.  After they have answered both question slides, they continue to a "Results" slide.  Upon entry to the "Results" slide, using "advanced actions" my user-defined variable adds up all of the scores to get a total.  Based on this total, one of three possible text captions boxes appear, depending on their total.  And....here are my questions (I have checked and re-checked the Forum and blogs for answers - and I am so sorry if I missed them!!) 
    1) I have defined a variable that totals the points that the person received on the quiz.  I would like this variable displayed on the Results slide.  It can get it to  appear in a Text Caption Box.  BUT if a person changes a score and re-submits the score before entering the "Results" slide, the total score reflects EVERY score that the person has chosen (the scores that they originally chose and then changed are still included in the total).
    2) I want the total score a person gets on the quiz reported to the instructor.  I don't know if a user-defined variable can be reported and how to go about doing this.  We will be running our quizzes on an LMS (though we haven't chosen one yet).  I tried using a system variable (cpQuizInfoPointsscored), but I believe (after reading discussions on Forum), it will not work in my quiz if my scores are adjusted/changed.
    3) another question - would you like me to put this in a separate discussion?   I certainly can!!  There is a "Back" button on the "Results" page.  I have tried using "advanced actions" and "on success: move to last slide visited" but neither option will allow the user to move to the last slide visited.  Ideally, I would liek a person to be able to go back through the quiz, look at their answers and adjust them.
    Thanks in advance for your help!  I have learned SO much in the last few weeks from all of you!

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    That is a lot of questions, thanks for reading my blog. The most difficult part is indeed the reporting in case, you did see perhaps that I have not yet published the blog post about reporting questions with partial scores, third part of my reporting sequence. Have two possibilities that I'm exploring: either with Javascript, or with the brandnew Master Widget that Rod is pointing to. Watch out for the blog post(s), but need some more time. So no real answer to your second question for the moment, because you cannot control the quizzing system variables with advanced actions.
    About your first question: you will have to so sort of 'reset' when re-entering the question slide, so that the total score stored in the user variable is decremented with the score attributed to the user in his previous answer. This means that you have to store this previous score in another user variable. Hope this make sense?
    I do not get the last question totally. Are you using the default Score slide? You have to allow Backwards movement in the Quiz Preferences, but for default Question slides this will not allow the user to change his answer. I thought you were using custom question slides? Do not use the default score slide in that case, but create your own score slide, so that you can add buttons and actions to your wish. Perhaps I misunderstand your question, and it would be better to explain more, eventually in another thread if it is about the default score slide, question slides.

  • Equivalence in Oracle of user-defined variables in mysql

    Hi,
    Due to the convertion of the backend database of an application from mysql to oracle 10g, I need also to convert my sql query for a BIRT report to be compatible to Oracle 10g.
    It is about the usage of user-defined variables in mysql. What is the equivalence in oracle of the user-defined variables in mysql for the following listed case?
    Thanks much in advance!
    LBäcker
    SQL for Mysql was something like this:
    select ID1,ID2, case when ( SORT is not null )
    then @SA := SORT else @SA := @SA + 1 end as S1 ,
    case when ( SORT2 is not null ) then @SB := SORT2 else @SB := @SB + 1 end as S2
    from
    ( select @SA := 100 , ID ID1, GLOBALSORTORDER SORT, ORG ORG1
    from DOCUMENT where ACTIVE = 'T' and BASELINE = 4 ) b1
    FULL OUTER JOIN
    ( select @SB := 200 , ID ID2, GLOBALSORTORDER SORT2, ORG ORG2
    from dOCUMENT where ACTIVE = 'T' and BASELINE = 5 ) b2
    on b1.ORG1 = b2.ORG2
    ORDER BY S2, S1
    The purpose I wrote this sql code is to resolve a sorting problem
    b1
    ID | Globalsortorder | org |
    23 | 100 | 10
    24| 101 | 11

    ID | Globalsortorder | org |
    38| 200 | 9
    39 | 201 | 10

  • Can I get multiple User-defined variables in one slide?

    I have used the user defined variables in the past to collect identifiying information on quiz results, as well as for quiz certificate.  I would like to re-use the variables in a couple of areas.  in my project, one slide will prompt the User Name (variable I created), second will prompt for User ID (variable I created).  I would like a third screen that reads "Confirm your previous entries", and I want it to show the two variables.  I am only seeing the first one.  Is there a way to get them both to display?
    I would also like to re-use both in the quiz certificate at the end.  If I edit the certificate widget in Flash, will both variable display?
    This quiz reports to me via email (we have no LMS).
    Any suggestions?
    Cyndi Nagel

    Hi again
    Did you shrink the screen shot before uploading? You're right. It's barely legible.
    If the variables are being inserted in more than one caption, have you double checked the timing? Perhaps something is pausing the slide before one of the captions has a chance to appear.

    Thanks for the valuable reply.
    But i want to define variables in the Script Logic and not in the Data Manager.
    The scenario is like this:
    I want to check the value of the DUMMYACC1 member of GL_ACCOUNT dimension with a constant and depending on the condition i want to update a user defined variable. This variable will further be used in the *SELECTCASE statement for decision making.
    The Code is as follows:
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET COMP_CODE = COMP_CODE_1
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET BUS_AREA = BUS_AREA_1
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET VERSION = VERSION_1
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET CURRENCY = AUD

  • Sequence Quiz Using User Defined Variables - Can See Underlying Variable Name On Move

    I have just tested using 1 slide to capture several user defined variables and the next slide to insert those variables as options in a sequence quiz slide.
    This works but as soon as I grab an object to begin sequencing them the underlying variable name shows up alongside the variable content.
    Am wondering if I am attempting something that shouldn't be possible in Captivate and / or if there is a fix?
    Thanks

    Sure, I'm using Captivate 8. On a test project I've created:
    a slide with 2 text entry boxes, their contents are stored in variables
    another slide with a sequence question (using the native captivate question slide)
    The labels on the 2 sliders on the question slide use the variables from the previous slide.
    This works, so if the variables are as follows:
    $$data_sequence1$$ - "blah blah blah"
    $$data_sequence2$$ - "blah"
    The labels on the sliders on the sequence question will be "blah blah blah" and "blah".  as intended.
    The issue is when I click one of the sliders to drag it to sequence the variable name will flash up on screen. So if I touch the slider with the label "blah blah blah" $$data_sequence1$$ will flash up on screen.
    I have other slides on there but these are the two related to this question. I haven't fully published the project I've previewed it.

  • User-defined variable in selection variant - doesn't work?

    Hello,
    Anyone had any experience of using user-defined variables (type B) in a selection variant? I can't get this to work in 4.7 or ECC 6.0. Seems like a bug - there's no way to specify the name of the variable. The theory behind their use is fine, but I wonder if anyone has successfully used them?
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    In an ECC 5 system, I can get to these showing if I'm in a report selection screen and I use the "Goto > User variables" (or Ctrl-F6) option... but note that it will only show the menu option if there are report parameters that have a PID on them and where the PID is defined in table TUVID (see note 144459).  That said, personally I've only used the "T" option and maintained system wide values in table TVARVC.
