Can a slide control have a range of 180 to 0 to 180?

I've got a slide control and I want its range to be 180 to 0 to 180.  No negative numbers are displayed or shown in the data.  This is how a aircraft cockpit roll indicator is marked as well as some other gages.  Electricaly the indicator is like this:
0 volts equals 180 degrees roll to the left,
5 volts is 0 degrees,
and 10 volts equals 180 degrees roll to the right.
Can slide controls work this way?  I would of thought there would be some sample code or something for aircraft cockpit gages but my searchs have been nill.  Thanks for any help.

You should be able to modify the control slider to do that.  The value would output 0 to 10 as you indicte for voltage but change the slider control to not display the numeric values with the ticks.  The use free text to lable the tick marks.  I don't know if you can actualy have the control equal to the same value in two different slider postions, but if you need to have 180 to 0 to 180, make the range have negative values and convert them to positive values in code.  You will still have to not show the slider values and use free text.

  • Uncontrolled expansion of a system slide control

    I have two system slide controls (part of a larger cluster) that are getting longer by a few pixels every so often without me touching them on the front panel.  I don't know what this is correlated to (i.e. opening the .vi, running the .vi, etc.) but these slides are now running into the space for other controls and even their own digital displays.  My program does not change the position or sizing of these controls, however I do occasionally write to them through local variables and value references.
    After noticing this issue, I tried programmatically keeping them down to size however there is an issue with this.  When the slide controls start to grow, their scales remain in place so there is a bit of a mismatch between the position on the scale and the corresponding label.  When I reduce the size by hand, or in the program, the scale similarly moves thus preserving this mismatch between the slide position and the label position.
    The only fix I have found deleting the control and putting in a brand new one.  This is obviously not a tenable solution.  Does anyone have any ideas?  For reference, I'm using LabView 8.5 on the Mac but I had this problem with version 8.2 as well.
    Thanks!

    The slider control is within a cluster that is indeed a typedef from a custom control, yes.  However, I noticed this behavior in slider controls belonging to clusters that are not deposited from a custom control.  I have never found this expansion to occur in slide controls that were standalone variables.
    I have included a .vi. that has the cluster of interest -- it would be difficult to include the cluster as part of the offending program.  I should mention that this slide expansion does not occur when the program is running, or even when the .vi is in memory.  I only notice this when LabView boots up and the .vi is first loaded.  In looking at this cluster now, the slide controls have expanded more than 10px on both ends.  Interestingly, i just noticed that they are getting taller too.  The scale on the bottom cluster is now starting to be clipped by the boundary of the cluster itself.
    Any insight would be a great help.

  • I would like to create a pop-up window appear from Labview Interface. In this window, I will have a slide control and an image taken from a camera. The main VI have to run while pop-up window is open. How can I do ?

    When I pushed a button, this pop-up window has to appear. There will be a slide control and a picture from a camera in this window. Is it possible to make appear this windows while main VI Interface continue to run ? How can I do this ? Thank you for your answers.
    Cyril.

    Here you go. This is simple example. Maybe not the best way, I am just
    beginner in LV and still not comfortable with data flow that much. I prefer
    events, so I would change this to use Event Structures.
    When you click on OK button on SliderMain, it opens Slider.vi. Now both
    windows are open and you can interact with both. Now if you click on OK
    again with Slider.vi open, you run into problems. Only thing I did was
    change VI properties of slider.vi, mainly window appearance.

    Restore as a new device, then sync your apps and contacts.
    Do not restore from backup.
    If that does not resolve it, then the next step would be to visit the Genius bar at an Apple store.

  • Changing Slide Control Scale Range

    I am creating a program that will allow the user to select a range of time over which data will be analyzed.  Is there a way to set the slide control range to start at the beginning of the data set (t0) and go to the time at the end (tf)?  I can change the values using a property node, but the values are for the start and stop and increments are doubles.
    Thanks.
    --Robert

    Change the format for the digital display. The tip strip will be formatted the same as the digital display.
    So far, you have only changed the scale format.

  • Tiled vi pane background​s can cause slow slider control updating

    In diagnosing a slow responding slider control I found that the problem was having selected a Pane background image that was set to Brushed Metal and Tiled.
    It turns out that it was the tiled setting that caused the slowdown (which was very pronounced).  It may not be commonly known, but if you right click on a vi pane scroll bar you
    have a right click menu that has the option of setting the background image jpg.

    Hmm, yes, it's actually pretty noticeable even all you have on the front panel is a slide control (you can see the slider trailing the mouse pointer when you move it up and down). It also seems to be specific to the metal brushed theme and doesn't happen when other backgrounds are tiled...
    Let me do some more testing here...

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

  • I have a net gear router supplied by virgin media. Can I extend my wi-fi range using express or extreme?

    I have a net gear router supplied by virgin media. Can I extend my wi-fi range using express or extreme?

    Apple designed their "extend" feature with proprietary settings to only work with other Apple routers.
    As a consequence, there is virtually no chance that the Apple devices you mention would extend the signal of a non-Apple wireless router...using wireless only.
    If you plan to connect the Apple devices back to your Virgin Media router using a permanent wired Ethernet cable, you can configure the AirPorts to provide more wireless coverage that way.

  • My Iphone 4 will switch on but will not respond as screen frozen (can't slide to switch on or answer calls) I have tried holding for 15 secs to reboot but same problem???

    My iphone 4 will switch on and charge, but a lot of the time the screen is frozen (can't slide to switch on or answer calls) I have tried holding for 15secs to reboot but it doesn't clear the problem????

    When you say "holding" is it both the sleep switch and the home button until the Apple Logo comes up? If it isn't then I would recomend doing that. If not, turn the phone off and then (while holding the home button) plug it in to iTunes, this will send the phone into recovery mode and will need to be restored from there. Note* this process does have the possibility of losing data if it is not backed up on the computer!!!

  • Programatically Accessing the Increment & Decrement of a Slide Control.

    Does anyone know if its possible to change the Increment and/or Decrement buttons in a Slide control? I know I can do this through the property pages but I can't find a method or property in the CNiImage class to gain access to these "buttons".
    Basically I have a 3D Horizontal Fill Slide and want to make the rounded ends flash when the value is under or over range and I can't find a way of doing it.

    Take a look at the CNiSlide::Images method. The documentation describes how you can access a CNiImage that corresponds to parts of the slide, including the increment and decrement buttons. Once you have the CNiImage for the buttons, you can configure the animation, blinking, etc. For example:
    CNiImage image = m_slide.Images(_T("Increment Button"));
    image.BlinkInterval = CNiImage::SpeedVeryFast;
