Any fast way to move objects in front panel?

Hi there,
I don't know if this is asked before. It is not a technical question but I wonder any way to move any object/control on the front panel quickly. I try to google and search in the forum but didn't see any way to do so. Sometimes, while developing complex program, too many controls used, after a control deleted and added back, it will appear in somewhere far away from the main region. I use mouse to move it back but it is so slow.
Also, in the diagram, for a big program, moving or lining from one end to other is so slow, any way to drag one line quickly from one end to other? Thanks.
Solved!

With try and error, I just found that pressing SHIFT while moving the objects will speed it up.

GAME: best way to MOVE objects: tweenlite them or increment their x any values

As the title says, need best way to move objects in game. Always used x and y increments. Read about tweenlite and use it, very easy. So which do I use taking into account that these games can be ported to mobiles ie: which is more optimized. It's a platform type game. I will have
a. A little girl that walks and climbs
b. Little platforms that slide from side to side - you have to jump on them
c. The little girl will jump
d. Little baddies will fly around the screen.
ALSO, as the girl jumps I would like it to look natural
a. Gravity as she falls down
b. The correct increment on x and y as she jumps.
Shouldn't their be an actionscript 3 games forum . anybody know a good site for that?
Cheers in advance

OK - I get the message. I should increment x.
I must have phrased the question wrongly. I'm just looking at optimization techniques so when games go on mobile they work OK.

What will happen to the organization of library if I removed the songs from windows explorer? Will iTunes automatically updated without all the deleted songs, or it will indicate 'missing location'? Any fast ways to clear this 'missing location' songs?

What will happen to the organization of library if I removed the songs from windows explorer?
Background: I found it easier to identify duplicated songs in windows explorer as the songs will be renamed .... 1.mp3, thus enabling me to remove the duplicated songs; unlike in iTunes where I know the trick of showing duplicate songs, but you don't know which one is the one with 1 at the end of the file name.
Will iTunes automatically update the library without all the deleted songs, or will it indicate 'missing location' songs? Any fast ways to clear this 'missing location' songs by highlighting them all and delete all at one go?
Thanks.

One way is to use iTunes Folder Watch with its option to check for dead tracks on start up.
Another option is with a set of Lost & Found playlists.
Lost & Found
Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist. You can delete them all with a Ctrl-A to select them and Shift-Delete to remove them.
You can then delete the Lost & Found playlists.

   How to set the automatic selection tools true?
In the tools palette, the LED on the top must be glowing. This indicates that you have selected the "Automatic Tool Selection"

Hi,
    When I double click the object on Front panel, it opens a new front panel with that object instead of locating that object on Block Diagram.
It is opening the Control Editor panel because You have checked the "Open control editor when Double click" to true as shown in figure.
Goto
Tools>>Options, select front panel from the dropdown menu and uncheck the "Open the control editor with double click"
Uncheck it.

Downloading software updates on dial-up connection. Any faster way?

I would like to download and install the Mac OS X Update Combined version 10.5.6. However, I am on a dial-up connection (High speed not available) and downloading the 657 MB will take . . . wait for it . . . 68 hours.
Is the update available any other way?
Thanks!

Hi Wandatoo;
I am totally flabbergasted to hear that your Apple dealer refused your request. So far everyone I have asked did it without any questions at all.
You might try a library. Most libraries today have high speed connections and computers. If the download will take a significant amount of time they may ask you to come in at an off hour.

Same object size (front panel) with different screen resolution

Hi everybody,
I realised an application, and I try to instal it on various computer. The probleme is that they haven't the same screen resolution, so the front panel is not the same on each computer. It is possible to build an application which have the same front panel with different screen resolution ?
Kriss.

Hi Krisss,
switch off any "adapt to screen resolution" switches in the VI properties...
You should also define "same front panel" and "same object size"! Do you mean the same pixel size or size in mm or size in percent of screen?

Hi,            &

control anywhere in front panel. For example in the attach file I
want to pick up the pict control (with the help of mouse) and drop

You'll need to use an event structure to respond to the mouse down, mouse
move and mouse up events. In the mouse down event of the control, set a
value in a shift register to true. In the mouse move event, when the value
is true, change the position of the control with a position property node.
In the mouse up event of the control, set the boolean in the shift register
to false.
 second thing I want to ask if I want to make it copy
paste, means main control will b at its initial position and where the
mouse moves the image moves and when I leave the mouse  the image gets
drops there. How to do it. Please help

nbsp;           &nbsp

You can't copy paste controls during run time. It seems you want to make a
graphical application, where you can graphically drag and drop some
configuration or something like that. You should have a look at the picture
control. You can draw anything you want in this control, and catch mouse
down, move and up events in the same way. It is perhaps a bit difficult to
get to know it, but it is very powerful when you do.

Wiebe.

Is there a way to disable all vi front panels in Teststand?

I don't want any vi front panels to appear while my Testand program is running. My application uses a lot of vi's and I'm trying to avoid having to reset the front panel properties for each one. Is there a single option somewhere in Teststand to do this?
Thanks.

Hi kevmi2ca,
One could uncheck the Show VI Front Panel When Called box in TestStand for each VI call, if it were checked. There is no other control in TestStand to modify the Front Panel behavior of all VI calls.
This would be a great product suggestion to make at http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nicc.call_me.

DVD player - any faster way to Fast Forward??

Hi
Is there any way to fast forward in the DVD Player other than holding the fast forward button down? It only does it at 2x....
Thanks

Hi, Chris!
Sure! Use ShiftCommand→ (right arrow) to accomplish this.
You can also change the default scan rate on the controller to scan faster. From the DVD Player menubar, choose Controls>Scan Rate, and change the scan speed there. It should increase based on the limits of of the optical drive's read capability and the media being used.

Is there any easy way to move the cursor in a plot by just a mouse click?

Right now I have to click at the cursor and drag it to the right position. I was wondering if there is an easy way to just do the mouse click to change the cursor (not dragging the cursor). I have only one cursor in the graph.

Assuming that if you click the cursor that you want it to always move to the same position, I think that you could do what you want by calling the cursor's SetPosition method in the graph's CursorMouseDown event.

Any faster way

this is a sample date in my viewobject
id title parentId
1 root -1
2 level2.1 1
3 level2.2 1
4 leaf1 2
5 leaf2 3
the parentID is a foreignkey to id,there is also a view link bettwen them.
i want to load the whole tree,so i must first to iterate the whole viewobjcet to find root.
then when i want to find the root's children,i must also to iterate the whole viewobject.
this is too slow.
how can i make it faster?can i remove the row i have iterated,because it only iterate once.

Hi,
Why not writing your vo query with a connect by clause?
As in
-- Beginning of Sample Data
with t as
select 1 id, 'root' title, -1 parentid from dual
union all select 2, 'level2.1', 1 from dual
union all select 3, 'level2.2', 1 from dual
union all select 4, 'leaf1', 2 from dual
union all select 5, 'leaf2', 3 from dual
) -- End of Sample Data
select id,level, title from t
start with parentid=-1
connect by prior id=parentid
Output
        ID      LEVEL TITLE
         1          1 root
         2          2 level2.1
         4          3 leaf1
         3          2 level2.2
         5          3 leaf2This is just an example, you can change the select statement according to your original table.

Is there any better way to publish a "read-only" panel on the web

Hi
I am new user in Labview. I am trying to publish some of our test result on the web. However. the current methods all have their disadvantages in my application
.monitor: I like this, but it is only supported by Netscape, which is not do popular anymore. I dont want push our customer to install it just for our demonstration.
.snap+refresh: Our application requires fairly fast refresh, 1 fresh/sec. the blank in during the refresh does not look nice.
Embed: I want to demonstration to be read-only, I dont want the custome gain any control over that. Also scroll bar shows in the embed mode is also something I dont want.
I am using LabView 6.1, if the problem has been solve in new version, I am glad to upgrade. Also is there is other better to meet my requirement, please help me.
Thanks
Message Edited by zach DDS on 10-05-2005 12:23 PM

Sorry, you must have edited your message. When I saw it, only the title showed .
Embedded is what you want. You can change the windows apperance (e.g. hide the scroll bars) by changing the VI properties.
Uncheck "request control" in the web publishing wizard, and it will be read only.
Works fine here in LabVIEW 7.1. I don't remember if 6.1 had any limitations.

Is there a faster way to 'write' automation?

I have a plugin that adjusts the gain on a vocal track.
One of the features is to automate the adjustment so that the automation can be adjusted manually afterwards for fine tuning.
As far as I can tell, the only way for this to happen is to 'play' the whole audio all the way through with the plugin in write mode.
Is there any faster way to get that initial automation curve created?
Also, is there a feature to reduce the number of automation points? IE turn 100 points into 10?
Thanks!
- Jac

Thanks Eriksimon!
I have a plugin that will create the automation, and I'd like to edit/fine tune that automation after the plugin has created the initial automation.
I'm looking for a way for that plugin to run through the file faster than real time so I don't have to wait an hour for the first pass to be written.
The other thing I'd like to do is, once the automation is drawn by the plugin, I'd like to reduce the number of points it created. In Reaper, there is a functoin to select a bunch of points and reduce them down so that say 10 points might reduce down to 3 if most of them are reasonably redundant. I'm looking for a similar function or script for Logic Pro X.
Thanks for the reply!

Fast way to determine record index in large tables

Hello,
We're currently struggling with a bit of a problem. We have a table with about 150k records containing (amongst other things) the "score" of a user. Now we want to determine the index of said user sorted by the score (i.e. "this user is ranked 92471th").
We need to do this quite often and simple solutions like counting the number of users with a higher score than said user is way too slow for our purpose. Are there any fast ways to do this? (preferably on SQL level, but some caching schemes that doesnt involve a big memory hit is acceptable too)

If the score field is indexed (and is numeric) this shouldnn't take too long.
If it is taking too long and since there won't be a better way I think your best idea is to script something that runs the queries once per x (day maybe) and caches that result in the table somewhere. So essentially the list is only updated once every so often.
