Can Insert a ring control to the multicolumn's cell?

My labview version is 8.6, using multicolumn to show some test info. Now want to insert the ring control in to a cell. Could you please tell me if there is any way ?
David

There is a hard way to do it:
Use a ring which is normally invisible. When the user clicks a cell (propably you want to limit this to certain columns), you move the ring at the position of the cell and make it visible. It needs some coding to make it work, so any other approach is preferable. Furthermore, I didn't succeed in aligning everything properly (the border of the ring did match the cell border, but the string inside the ring was misaligned to the strings in the other cells).

  • I there, my question is quite simple, I would like to know if the "apple remote control" can be used with a mac mini and , if so, it can be used to control also the "logic pro" functions (e.g. record, start, stop etc). Thks a lot, Danilo

  • How can i distinguish two controls with the same name?

    I'm recording automated tests with VS 2012 Coded Ui Test for testing a web application.
    In that web application it is possible to enter data in something looking like a list.
    There is - per example - an Edit control sitting on a ColumnHeader with the name/text "Description".
    Below that header is another Edit control for data input - containing the text "Description" too and which lies on a Cell control.
    When i playback my recording, Coded UI Test looks for a control with the name "Description" and gets the one, it finds at first.
    In that case the Edit on the ColumnHeader, which causes an exception, when the Text will be setted with the data input from the recording.
    Unfortunately the controls have no ID.
    Is there a way to distinguish controls with the same name?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Patrick Pirzer,
    >>Is there a way to distinguish controls with the same name?
    Based on the blog "How does “Coded UI test” finds a control ??", we know that to really find a control, it would be related to the unique properties as the search properties,
    so if two controls have the same property, please use other unique property as the search property would be better.

  • Legacy VB6 project. Can no longer add controls to the form.

    Working on a VB6 project that has been in continuous use since 2002.  Needed to make a simple mod and add a new control.  Choosing any control and attempting to drag it on to the form always fails with a black circle with diagonal bar at the cursor
    as soon as the cursor leaves the toolbox.
    Reloaded VB6 and SP6. No luck.
    Tried a new "Hello World" project but was unable to move any controls from toolbox.
    Now the weird part.  Went to 4 other old computers that have always worked in the past.  All of them failed the "Hello World" test as well.
    This is perfectly legal Microsoft Visual Studio Professional load from one of our old MSDN disks.  Are these timebombed or something?
    The program can be edited, compiled and run with no issues, I just can't add controls to any form.

    Hi

    I am afraid that these forums donot support VB6, you could refer to this thread
    Where to post your VB 6 questions
    and consider posting this issue in these forums below:

  • Audio problem; can't seem to control where the sound is coming from!

    Good day!
    I am currently trying to set up a VERY basic "two camera shoot" using my built in iSight, and a Sony DCR-TRV315 Digital-8 w/FireWire camcorder.
    (I know, I know; I'm breaking all sorts of rules using such unmatched cameras. I'm a terrible videographer.)
    I'm NOT capturing from tape, however. I'm just using the lens of it to get a different shot. By just plugging it in, iMovie recognizes it, just as it would a FireWire webcam, and allows me to capture straight to the hard drive.
    To record audio, I'm using a Griffin iMic (USB preamp) with a Sony lavaliere mic.
    I have, of course, selected the iMic as the device for sound input in Sound Preferences.
    When I set the input camera to the built in iSight, the iMic kicks in and the lavaliere works like a dream. However; when I switch to the Sony camera, the iMic seems to get overridden, and the Sony camera's built-in mic kicks in! And the Sony camera isn't even IN the "choose a device for sound input" box in Sound Preferences!
    Is there any way to record JUST the video from the Sony DCR-TRV315, and keep the audio coming in from the iMic? I can't seem to find an audio preference that would control this, like you'd find in Garageband for example. This is a big problem. The look of the video changes enough between shots; I can't have the sound changing with it!
    Thanks for any help!

    Thanks everyone.
    Unfortunately, I think that M. Dubose is correct; for some reason, it doesn't want to seem to split up the FireWire input.
    The real kicker is that, by using the Griffin iMic along with the built-in iSight, I'm ALREADY getting sound and video from two separate sources. It just doesn't want to let me split this FireWire signal like it will the iSight's video signal/built in microphone.
    If it wasn't for this one thing, the input toggle could work quite effectively as a basic switcher. Hopefully, in future iMovie builds, the need for an independent iMovie Sound Prefs will be addressed, as that'd likely take care for this whole thing.
    The other issue is that the camera I'm using isn't true DV; it's Sony's proprietary Digital 8 format, which unfortunately, ain't too hot for image quality. That's why I'm hesitant to record to the tape and import. However, the lens and the FireWire port are still very valid, so by recording directly to the hard drive, it should have been fine for my needs.
    Also; the idea of THAT much precise editing in a single-channel software just makes my head spin. Switching inputs between shots would have been so much easier. Ah well. iMovie is a good program otherwise; I guess you just can't expect the world from free software, eh?
    I'll probably test it with a buddy's FireWire camcorder to make absolutely sure that it isn't just some freaky incompatibility keeping me from selecting the audio in of my choice. But I can't say that I'm too optimistic.
    Thanks again, everyone!

  • I am now in France, and my iphone will not audibly ring. I can set the volume. I can select a ring tone, and the test works fine. I can turn on/off the vibrate, but incoming calls only vibrate.

    My iPhone does not ring on any signals. The incoming calls only vibrate.

    What have you done to troubleshoot thus far?  Restart, reset, restore?

  • When I copy and paste the data from a web site in to excel, it comes in one big splurge - ie it is not 'delimited' - and I can't see how to delimit the data into cells. In Explorer, the data is delimited. Any clues ? John

    see above

    A couple of options:
    # When pasting the data into Excel use Paste Special, and choose either Text or Unicode Text.
    # Use the Dafizilla Table2Clipboard extension to copy the data - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/dafizilla-table2clipboard

  • How to change the numbers of items in a ring control in run time ?

    Hi !
    I would like change the numbers of items in a ring control in run time, but I can´t.
    Thanks.

    Hello blaze,
    did you try the "Strings And Values []" property of the ring?
    LabView7.1 help says:
    Array of clusters containing the strings from which you can select in the ring control
    and the numeric values for each item. Use the Strings [] property if you do not need to
    assign specific numeric values to each item.

  • Ring control with keyboard shortcut

    Sorry, posted this in the wrong forum!
    Hi all,
    Is there a way to assign shortcut keys to each items in a ring control?  The ring control that I have currently has 40 items.  My intention is to have it as follows:
    [1] Item1
    [2] Item2
    [3] Item3, etc...
    So, once the ring control is active, user can type in "20" to select item #20.  
    I tried EVENT_KEYPRESS, but as soon as the ring control pop-ups, I can no longer trap any key press events.
    Thanks,
    YL

    Popping up the menu isn't the same as the control having focus for keyboard entry. They are mutually exclusive. One way to do what you want is to  basically have to make sure the ring has KeyFocus so you can use the Input Device Control VIs to read the keyboard. You can, for example, set the KeyFocus on a MouseDown event, and unset it for a MouseUp. Then, in the Timeout case for the event structure you can be monitoring the keyboard to see what keys are pressed and act if the ring has KeyFocus. See attached (LV 8.2) as a starting point.

  • Ring control

    Is it possible to enter the values in a Ring Control properties box in hexadecimal form?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    After you drop the ring control on the FP, command-click and select Display Format, and with the 'Numeric' dropdown selected (only choice on a text ring), choose 'Hexadecimal' in the type list.  Now when you go to the 'Edit Items' tab, the values should display in hex as shown.
    Is that what you meant?

  • Is there an app that can control the ringer volume by the time of day?

    Is there an app that can control the ringer volume by the time of day. Like say i had work. Is there an app that can automaticly change the ringer volume on certain days at times you input to lower the ringer volume?

    Can a app like this be made or will apple not allow it?

  • The silent/ringer switch and the volume control buttons stopped working, how can I fix this or do I just need to get a new phone?

    One day I relalized that the silent/ringer switch on my iPhone 4 stopped working. My phone is permently silent and I can't turn the ringer on. The speakers still work so they aren't the problem. Also, the volume controls on the side don't work either. Is this problem fixable or do I need to get a new phone?

    you can try the restore first to make sure it is nothing software related. makesure to back up information and restore as new. after that it is hardware if your with in the limited hardware warranty and can be replaced for free if you are not then it can be replaced for 149$ if it is a iphone 4 or lower

  • How to add items dynamically to the DropDown Ring control in Web UI Builder

    Hi All,
    Is there any way to add the item names to DropDown Ring Control in Web UI Builder?
    Or
    Is there any other control available to make selection in the Front Panel which can be dynamically loaded?
    Thanks,
    Alagar

    DiyaDiya  
    We do not currently have a solution for populating the items in a ring dynamically. 
    Thanks for the clarification.
    Seems incredible after all these years that such functionality (dynamically populating a ring control) is still beyond Labview. I must be missing something.
    However, I'd suggest a combobox is closer than a listbox as a workaround.
    [edit]
    nevermind, it actually can be done (well, maybe not in the webUI), I found the explanation here http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/FB0409491FAB16FA86256D08004FCE7E

  • Can I load pictures for a picture ring control at run time?

    Hi all,
    is there a way to achieve the above mentioned behaviour? Changing the graphics elements of a picture ring control or indicator at run time?
    Best regards,
    Matthias
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can do that with the picture indicator.  I have written a slide show program in LV and it works quite smoothly.  If you start to see delays, it is probably due to file read time rather than the display.  Read one or two files from disk ahead of when you will want to display them.  Updating the display from memory should be fast.

  • Ring Control changes without a write to the ring control

    I am experiencing a weird phenomenon. My application opens a main gui.
    On the main gui is a ring control which allows our operator to choose the test mode that they want the tests to run in. This basically controls the way data is handled and the tests that can be run in that mode.
    There is another ring control which allows the operator to select the test that they want to run.
    Once the operator selects a test, there is a Run Test button on the main gui.
    The issue:
    The user selects a test to run then hits the "Run Test" button. Another gui pops up, the main gui remains open, but the second gui becomes the active gui. The test runs and the second gui closes making the main gui the active gui again. On several occassions, and without clicking anything the operator has watched the "Test Mode" Ring change it's value about 10 - 15 seconds after they ran the last test.
    I have gone through my code and there is nowhere that I programatically write to this control. I only "GetCtrlVal" and dim or undim the control with "SetCtrlAttribute". 
    Any insight as to what could be causing this is appreciated. I am thinking there maybe a context switching issue here.

    Wow...What a Ride!"

    From my experience, this is often the result of using a panelhandle/control ID combination that don't belong together in a call to something like SetCtrlVal(...).  In a large project, this can be challenging to track down.  What I would look for is a call to SetCtrlVal(...) with the panelhandle of your main GUI with a control ID that is on some other panel.  You can also look in the uir .h file(s) and search for the macros that have the same value as your ring control and see if they are being used inappropiately.  Another way is to turn on "Break on Library Errors", as not all the calls with mismatched panelhandle/control ID combos will work so this may help you track down where they are located in the code.  Hope this helps.
