Can't find 'Make current properties default' in Text Tool

Acrobat XI Pro
11.0.06
Win 8.1, 64 bit
I'm trying to change the default font size for my Add Text tool.
What I've been trying is creating a text box and adding some text in it.
Then I try right clicking in the box, on the text, after doing a Select All.
None of the boxes that pop up give me the option to 'Make Current Properties Default'.
What's the right way to change the defaults to Add Text?
Thanks.

Unfortunately there is no way. I'd also like this to have. But you need to remind yourself that Acrobat is not a text editor.
All you can set in the preferences is font and font height for comments.

"Make current properties default"

I have accidentily clicked the setting to make current properties the default on one of the tools in Acrobat, how can I turn it off so it resets back to default settings before I clicked this?

It is the area measuring tool so I don't want there to be a default. I want it to measure the area I select each time I select it. But as I accidentily clicked this button it is now remembering that shape everytime I try to measure an area. Is there a way to reset it so there is no pre-determined area and it measures it each time like it did before?

How can I use "Make Current Values Default" Programmatically?

When I use this method in a Invoke node, I get the error code 1000, then i can't use it in run mode?
How can I modify the default values in a Built aplicattion, and save for the next time I load it?

Hi,
I've attached a small demo to show setting up the front panel control. The VI Change Control Value.vi is the one you run. Demo.vi has one control on the front panel whose value is setup by Change Control Value.vi. Just unzip the file, keeping the two VI's in the same folder. You don't need to open the Demo.vi.
I've used this mechanism onlong with a config file when creating a Virtual Instrument Driver.

Make current values default

Hello ng,
Can anyone tell me how to programatically make
the current values of all controls on a panel the
default values?
Furthermore, can I set all controls back to their
default state programatically?
Thanks!

Are we talking about LabVIEW 5 here? If so check out the VI Server
functionality.
In the Functions palatte under Application Control you can open a VI
reference to
a VI with Open VI Reference and then using the Invoke Node you have both
"Make Current Values Default" as well as "Reinitialize All to Default
available".
These functions match exactly the same commands in the Operate menu.

Make current value default - Undo action

Hi,
A simple question - when selecting with the right mouse button a control and pressing "Data Operations/Make Current Value default" how I can undo this operation? Imagine I set some control default value to something and after some time I changed my mind and I want to return the control to its initial value (as it comes when you place the control from the pallete - "Set to factory value"). I was not able to figure out how to do this. Cntr - Z is not an option since it works only in the close vicinity of the operation (you can't Cntr-Z this operation after 2-3 hours of intensive work over the VI).
For example I set numeric control default value to 22, after some time I want to return it to initial state (in this particular case the "factory value" is 0). Well, I can reinitialize the value to 0 but it's different from setting it to "factory" settings.
Thank you

I disagree with the idea that the default value is not a valuable tool.
One example is let's say you have a subVI that had a hardcoded constant, but in new applications, this value is to be fed in from the outside - i.e., the constant is to become a control connected to the connector pane. This subVI is in a common library so it needs to maintain compatibility with older applications.
So you right-click on the constant to make it a control with the default value already set to the original constant value, connect it to the connector pane and set the connector to anything but required. Now the new software has a connector to hook up to while, even though the old code will have to be recompiled, it won't break because, even though there is nothing wired to the control, the default value works just fine.
I can think lots of other things, but that is among the most useful thing I've done with default values.

Invoke Node - Make current values default

I have an issue similar to many postings regarding the use of an invoke node to set control values and then to make those values default in that I get an error message: "Error 1000 ( The VI is not in a state compatible with this operation)."
The catch is that it is not all the time.
I am trying to set up a configuration utility which allows configuration or modification of settings of channels and serial ports. This top level VI pulls values from a configuration file using a mid-level VI which, in addition to loading the configuration file, also calls a further sub VI which initialises and sets as default front panel objects on a number of VI's using Invoke Nodes. Thus there is a heirachy of three VI's
with the lowest level VI doing the Invoking.
The only time I get the Error 1000 is when I try to run everything from the top level VI. From any lower level the VI's run with no problems and the defaults are set as desired.
Any suggestions as to the origin of the problem?
Ross.

To complement the other answer that explains why it not always works, I would again and again stress that !! make current values default !! is not the way to go when you want initial values to be changed.
For changing startup values you should use .ini files !

Can I find the current tab in Terminal using applescript?

Running a script from the shell by prepending
#! /usr/bin/osascript
as part of my .profile, can I find the "current" tab using Applescript. Most of the time, the "current" tab will not be visible, as the shell is being initialised, or re-initialised.
I want to set the dircolors for my shell by determining the background color of the tab in which the shell is executing.

Under the Window menu you can activate any of the palettes that you want. In your case the Field tab is under the Object palette

HT1338 Why can I not make Safari my default browser? I did what it said to click on it and accept, but it does not happen.

This is my question. Why can't I make Safari my default browser. I have followed directions, but it does not happen.

Not sure what procedure you are describing, but...
In Safari preferences General tab, for the Default web browser setting, select Safari.

Where can I find the current time and date of Time Capsule?

I have a home network consisint of 2 x Time Capsules and 1 x Airport Express. All is working fine. I would like to set up access control for one machine connecting to the network and I can see I can do this under Access Control on the Airport Utility. My question is where can I find the current time and date setting for these devices?
I can set them to use the time.apple.com server to set the time automatically, but I can't find where to see the current time and date of the device. The only place I can see reference to the time and date is on the logs and statistics under the Advanced tab of the AirPort Untility.

I don't think you can change the time and date on the TC itself, it just connects to a time server (and you set your own time zone).

VI to make current values default

Hi, I've used this website:
http://www.originalcode.com/SavDef.htm to create a method that
will call the "Make current values default" at the end of my program.
Here are my Save defaults.vi and Save defaults core.vi
The latter works but the former gives me a bad input error... I admit I
am not advanced enough in Labview to fully understand these two
programs so I just built them both visually from the website, as I need
my larger program to save the current defaults when it's done running.
Thanks for any help!

It's difficult to explain (and unfortunately I don't have much time).. but the 'Set Control Value' methods in the Save Defaults.VI are actually setting the values for the controls in the Save Defaults Core VI. You instead had constants. I changed these to Controls and named them accordingly (i.e., "occurrence" and "VI to save"). See attachments.
I am guessing "Relative position.vi" is your VI where you wants the defaults to be saved. So, you will add the Save Defaults VI as a sub VI in this VI. You do not have to explicitly give its path anywhere as that is obtained from the call chain.
I have not tested this.. but it should work now. You will have to rename these to the original names, including spaces, etc. (or change the names on the diagrams).
Hope this helps.

Reversing the Make Current Values Default command

Hi,
I was working with a labview program this evening and had been using the 'Reinitialize all to default' command under the operate menu to clear all of the waveforms on my screen. However, I accidentally chose the 'Make current values default' command and cannot erase what shows up in the waveforms. I am sure there is a simple fix to my problem but I couldn't figure it out. I tried rewiring parts of my block diagram do exclude the waveform graphs with the hope that the waveforms would go away but realized that the graphs weren't wired so nothing was going to change. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You,
bsteinma
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are a few simpler ways than closing and reopening the VI.
If you realized the mistake right (or soon) after you did it, a ctrl+z will undo the operation and you have your old defaults back.
If you are past that stage, a simple "menu...file...revert" will revert the VI to the last saved version. No need to exit and reload.
If you accidentally saved it with the new defaults, "right-click the graph...data operations...clear graph", make default, save VI again.
Good luck!
