Background VI question

I need to have a VI running on the background constantly monitoring a value measured by DAQ. I want to put the value on top of the screen, and some other VI need to pull the value from this background VI from time to time. I guess I can use a background VI and a global constant to transfer data between this VI and others, but I(or other users) will have to remember to open and run at least two VIs and have two windows on the screen. Is it possible to put everything in one VI?

The simple answer to your question is yes.  In order to give a more specific answer the question needs to be more well defined.
It sounds like you have not read the portion of the manual with regard to creating and using subvis.  Any vi that you have written can be used as a subvi in another program.  You just need to set it up for wiring.  There are also a number of ways to pass data between running vis (queues, notifiers, LV2 globals, etc.).  Each has its merits and weaknesses and should be decided based upon your specific needs.  I suggest that you read these sections of the manual and then if things aren't clear you'll be able to more clearly articulate your question.

  • Question related to my previous "background process" question.

    Hello Folks:
    Can I start a "Notification Service Subscriber" process through the
    normal startup procedure for other servers---i.e. by adding it to the
    config(ubb) file. If so, can I implement the background process as two
    different CORBA servers calling each other asynchronously to accomplish
    the work. Please let me know if there is any other way to accomplish
    what I have stated in the "background process" question.

  • Stationary/Background pictures question.

    Hello, I just had a quick question. I am a new Mac user, I have always used a PC before, and I just bought a mac which I have had for about a week. Anyways, my question is... is there any way to put stationary/background pictures on the e-mail? I can't find any anywhere on my computer, and I just want to know if I am overlooking it or not, and if there isn't any stationary, is there a way to get some? Thanks.
    As for the computer that I have, it is a Mac OS X Version 10.4.9, and the Processor is 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

    I don't believe this is possible within Mac OS X Mail in Tiger but it will be in Leopard. You should check out some of Apple's iCards for now.

  • Page Background Change Question

    i do not know the technical language to use to ask this question, and for that i apologize.
    Anyway, i was wondering two things.
    i am wanting to create a newsletter larger than the average size (more like newspaper size). i can choose the size in page set up, however, the template that i use does not appear to resize with the new page size. So, the background (in this instance the grey background used with the "Extreme Newsletter" template does not resize with the page. If i select that background, i see it outlined with a very slim blue line with little x's at the corner... but i can't resize the image, change the color, or do anything else to it. So that background only takes up about a quarter of the page...
    Can these backgrounds be changed? If so, how do i do it, i can't seem to find anything on this in help...

    Oh my god! That was so easy and right in front of me all the time... lol. THANK YOU!!! i have literally spent several hours fiddling with this thing and searching the web, the help file... everything.
    thanks again!

  • Quick background image question

    I think this is a simple question, but maybe it's not.
    Basically I want an image to behave like the background images on
    Prada.com. It scales based upon
    width and crops the height. It seems to be anchored to the
    top-right corner, unless you get fairly narrow then it isn't
    anchored anymore, and it stops scaling the image. I have two large
    displays and no matter how wide I stretch my window it just keeps
    scaling the image. How would I go about doing this?

  • Critical Roles & RAR Background Jobs Question

    Hello,
    I have the following queries, related to GRC AC 5.3 RAR.
    1- I would like to include all roles starting with S* into critical roles.
    My question is can I say S* in critical roles, OR do I have to manually enter each & every role starting with S* (Please note that currently we have around hundreds of roles starting with S and entering each of them manually is a tedious task).
    2- We have several background jobs scheduled in RAR and when I click search button, I get a list of around 600 jobs executed in the past few months.
    My question is can I purge the background jobs history in such a way that, when I click "SEARCH" button, I get only those background jobs, which have been executed in the past 1 week?
    Thanks,
    Haleem

    Hi Varun,
    I created message with SAP in the component GRC-SAC-SCC and below is the response.
    Dear Customer,
    You have to manually enter each & every role in critical roles section and the exclude objects in management report section.
    SAP GRC AC 5.3 SP11 does not support wildcard operations in critical roles/ profiles and exclude objects of management reports. We will support the wildcard in future SAP Versions of GRC.
    Thanks
    Based on the above message, I understand that I will have to enter all the roles manually for critical roles in critical roles section of RAR -> rule architect and exclude objects  of management report section.
    Thanks,
    Haleem

  • TR Background processing question

    To All
    We currently receipt stock in MIGO and get a GR slip. Then we use LB10 to putaway using TO in Foreground. My question is what config do I need to set up to use TC in Background? What paperwork is generated to advise staff where to put stock if TO in Background is used? Is there a 'putaway' list when the background processing is selected.
    We currently have no other warehouse stock strategies. (No fixed bin management, no capacity check, etc)
    We currently use the material master default bin (which is printed on the GR slip) to suggest the putaway location.
    I want to get away from using TO in foreground to speed up putaway processing
    Regards
    Darren

    Darren,
    TO or TC or both ?
    For immediate TO creation:
    In config.
    LE \ WM \ Interfaces \ IM \ Define Movement Types
    In the second table, according to the parameters you want e.g. Movement Type, set 'A' in the 'Immediate' column
    Alternatively consider background generation (by prog. RLAUTA10) by setting per movement type.
    In config.
    LE \ WM \ Activities \ Transfers \ Set up Autom. TO creation
    And step through the settings.
    Regards,
    Nick

  • JButton background color question

    Hi everybody,
    I have a feeling I'm going to get slammed for this, but I have to ask a very general question and hope for an answer.
    I have a JDialog on which buttons don't seem to hold their background color. That is, when I use setBackground, the only color change I get is a very thin outline of the color, and the rest of the button is white. The strange thing about the button is that the white center actually seems transparent--if I change the panel the button is on to another color besides white, the center of the button turns that color.
    I've tried to solve this problem with setOpaque( true ), setContentAreaFilled( true ), setBackground( color ), setForeground( color ), and I'm pretty sure every combination of those.
    Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce this in a test case, so I can't give a SSCCE, although I've tried for a while now to make one.
    So...has anyone ever run into a problem like this and can give me some advice? I'm sorry I can't be more specific, if anyone has a question I'll do my best to answer.
    Thanks,
    Jezzica85

    I have a feeling I'm going to get slammed for this, but I have to ask a very general question and hope for an answer.Why would people be harsh on you? The only risk you take is: vague question => vague answer (or random).
    So...has anyone ever run into a problem like this and can give me some advice? I'm sorry I can't be more specific, if anyone has a question I'll do my best to answer.Never seen that myself, so I'll add a few random questions/thoughts:
    I have a JDialog on which buttons don't seem to hold their background color. That is, when I use setBackground, the only color change I get is a very thin outline of the color, and the rest of the button is white.- are you using a custom JButton subclass? If yes are you certain the subclass does not override paintComponent()?
    - If not, the button is painted by its ButtonUI. Can you tell which UI class is used (sysout(+theButton.getUI()+)?
    The UI is set according to the LookAndFeel.
    - Do you set any special LookAndFeel (+UIManager.setLookAndFeel(...)+, or look and feel's UIDefault properties in your app (generally that is done at startup)?
    - If not, can you tell the current look and feel when you bring up the dialog (+UIManager.getLookAndFeel(...)+, although that can be inferred from the ButtonUI subclass' name.
    I've tried to solve this problem with setOpaque( true ), setContentAreaFilled( true ), setBackground( color ), setForeground( color ), and I'm pretty sure every combination of those.FYI, the ButtonUI paints the button however it sees fit; in particular it doesn't have to respect the colors, opacity, filling... properties.
    Eventually:
    - are you using a custom JDialog subclass (probably, as that's generally how people write dialogs; not the best way IMHO, but there are cases where this is hard to avoid).
    I see you can't provide an SSCCE right ow, but maybe you can try to narrow the list of suspects in your side?
    - Do you reproduce the same problem at startup, if you bring the JDialog up as soon as possible?
    - Do you reproduce the problem with a mere JOPtionpane.showMessageDialog(..., theButton,...)?
    - Do you reproduce the problem outside of the JDialog context (I see you mention using a different JPanel, but is that in the dialog or somewhere else?
    Good luck with your investigations.

  • Some background porcess question

    Hi~
    I have some confuse question about background process.
    1.When I set ALTER SYSTEM CHECKPOINT,all dirty buffers are written,is it include non commit transaction entry??
    2.When there is 1MB of redo log buffer,LGWR writes redo entries to the redo log files,is it include non commit transaction redo ?
    when a datafile damaged,we restore it from backup,and roll forward from all archive log and online redo log file,how did oracle know what data need rollback? is the undo segment will keep these uncommit transaction so it know who need rollback?

    Shu shic chun -
    1.
    When a buffer in the database buffer cache is modified, it is marked dirty. A cold buffer is a buffer that has not been recently used according to the least recently used (LRU) algorithm. The DBWn process writes cold, dirty buffers to disk so that user processes are able to find cold, clean buffers that can be used to read new blocks into the cache
    2.Sometimes, if more buffer space is needed, LGWR writes redo log entries before a transaction is committed.
    These entries become permanent only if the transaction is later committed.
    After rolling forward, the data blocks contain all committed changes. They may also contain uncommitted changes that were either saved to the datafiles before the failure, or were recorded in the redo log and introduced during cache recovery.
    Undo blocks (whether in rollback segments or automatic undo tablespaces) record database actions that should be undone during certain database operations. In database recovery, the undo blocks roll back the effects of uncommitted transactions previously applied by the rolling forward phase.
    After the roll forward, any changes that were not committed must be undone. Oracle applies undo blocks to roll back uncommitted changes in data blocks that were either written before the crash or introduced by redo application during cache recovery. This process is called rolling back or transaction recovery.

  • Changing the size of a background on Question Slides

    Hi All,
    I have a Question Pool and I would like the background of the slides to be the same as one i use for a ppt presentation. I have copied the background and used the 'Paste as Background' option you get when right-clicking. It pastes the image but the image is smaller than the slide itself. Does anyone know how to change the size of the background so that it fits the size of the slide?
    Thanks.

    Hi there
    Okay, so it would seem to me that you may not fully understand Captivate and resolutions. So heres the deal.
    It appears that you are expecting the image to stetch to fill the entire computer screen. You stated you cannot get the image to size beyond 1440 pixels. Well, this is because your project is sized at 1440 pixels.
    Remember, the Captivate movie will usually be played back to the viewer from inside a web browser. Normally you want the movie size to be smaller than the surrounding browser. Like this:
    In the example above, the White part of what is inside the browser may be the width of the Captivate movie.
    Does this make better sense?
    Cheers... Rick

  • General credit card application background & application questions, aka Do Banks Hold Grudges?

    Hey all,  Background first -  After several long years of rebuilding and waiting patiently for my previous transgressions to drop off of my credit record, I'm nearing the end of the process.  I currently have the following on my credit reports: 
    Experian:  FICO 720, 1 inq from 8/26/2013, no other accounts showing, no negative items.   Transunion:  669 Vantage. No inquiries. One active installment account paying on time as agreed (rehabilitated student loan) , one closed installment account (transfer of said student loan, no negative status).  1 derog revolve, 1 collection.  
    Equifax:  696 (type unknown).   1 inquiry (Comcast) from October.  1 collection account  Short summary:  Student loan lender tranasferred my account, hence the 1 closed acct and 1 open.  My first credit card from when I was young and stupid was originally a WaMu (bought by Chase, so shows as Chase of course) with a last payment date of 7/29/08.  Then there's the attached collection account from this.  Presumably both of these will be disappear within the next couple of weeks since Experian is not showing them.  
    I cannot explain why Experian doesn't show my ACTIVE student loan but I imagine that'll fix itself since hte transfer was just last month.  
    So, on to the question: 
    Here's the question I have:  I'm going to be applying for a credit card soon to start building more credit, and I conceptually like the idea of getting the Chase Freedom card over the Capital One Quicksilver One (which I seem to be prequalified for)… but even if I wait until after all of my CRs are not showing the Chase account, do I have to worry about any sort of internal flag in Chase's system that might get me denied anyway?   I'm not married to the idea of a Chase card, so I'm more than open to suggestions and discussion on the subject. 
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thanks in advance for your help! Welcome to the forums. Absolutely have to worry about being on Chase's blacklist. Doesn't matter if the account shows in your reports or not.  They have a long memory, long after it drops off your reports.  Only way to know is to apply but without having any current credit card accounts I don't think your chances are great. Definitely look into Capital One by checking their pre approval site.  I'd start by applying with them and build your file for bit before even trying for Chase

  • Browser background color question

    Hello,
    I have read in some article, that not all Browser background colors are readable by all computers.
    So I am wondering: when I am choosing the right color for my website's Browser Background, can I pick any color from color picker?
    Or should I only use certain "universal" color, which is guaranteed to be readable on any viewer's computer.
    Thank you .

    Just as there are web-safe fonts, there are also web-safe colors. Your color window has all the information you need. See.....

  • Background color question..

    I can't for the life of me figure out how to add or change the background color on
    any pages I create. There is nothing I can find in the inspector, such as Iweb has, for the entire page to have a certain color.
    For example, if you try the "for sale," "lost and found" or "for rent" flyer templates, how do you change the background colors. I don't see the blue, green, or grey anywhere in the inspector. Is this not an option?
    wade

    wad,
    I looked at the first one ("for sale", the one with the bicycle), and had no trouble changing the color of the large gray box. Select the box, click on the Graphics inspector, select Color Fill from the Fill menu, then click on the color swatch. Click on the little box of crayons on the right side of the color palette, then on the color you want.
    Regarding the "for rent" flyer, do the same thing as mentioned able, except note that when you select the green box, little x's appear in the corners. This indicates that the object is locked. So before you can do anything else, click on Arrange > Unlock. Then follow the above steps.
    "Lost and Found" works the same way as "for sale" above.
