Can the cursors in a property node be changed to the LabView 7.X format instead of 8.X?

I plotted data and used the property node thing to create cursors so that I can select individual data points.  The LabView 7.0 or 7.1 format for the cursors was useful because I could punch in a number and the cursor would then jump to that number.  But with LabView 8.0, this option is apparently no longer available, and I must manually move the cursor to where I want it to go.  This is very time-consuming, and I would like to know if there's a way to revert to the LabView 7.0 format, or change the existing format so that I can tell the cursor where to go by punching in a number.  Any ideas?

Sorry but no. You are stuck with the 8.0 style cursor option. I find the labview 8.x cursor display ugly and useless. Even my customers are very quick to specify that they do not want Labview 8.x styled cursors. I really miss the 7.1 type cursor display 
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
(Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

  • Use property nodes to change the state of a boolean through time

    I want to be able to switch the value from a boolean control, using property nodes, so that if the time elapsed is equal to 0,1 ,2 ,3 s, it should be false and if the time is equal o.5,1.5,2.5 s, the value should be true.
    Can some one tell me how to do this with propert nodes or with any other method?
    Thanks in advance!

    -To change value using property node>>right click boolean>>create>>Property node>>value>> Change it to write.
    -Forget about specific period of time, first learn to change the value of boolean programmatically.

  • How to directly change the text of a tree node once its in the tree

    How can I directly change the text of a tree node once its in the tree.
    I have a property box which fires an eventevery time it is edited
    (this is currently just output to the screen via println)
    What i want is for the tree node to take the updated text that is in the text box every time
    thus giving tree labels that update as you type
    PS. i have access to the tree node (DefaultMutableTreeNode) from the code that hanldes
    the text box event

    ... use the setUserObject() method of your DefaultMutableTreeNode, that'll set the text of the node.
    however, you probably need to do a treeModel.nodeChanged(node) with your tree model, to get the display updated.

  • Why knob need to use property node to change its value

    Refer boiler vi in CLD exam sample question. 
    In the vi the knob vlaue is changed with a property node, it is not wired directly to a constant. The comment in the vi is something like "writing using property node because of the latch action of the booleans in the cluster"...
    Huh? How do the booleans influence the knob even though they are in a same cluster? What principle is this called? I need to google this up,  I didn't read it in.
    my Labview books.

    That comment doesn't make any sense.
    There are two main reasons I can think of why you want to use a Value property node.
    1.  You want to control the order of execution by using the error wire.
    2.  You want to use a property node on multiple controls by feeding it references to different controls.
    Neither of these appear to apply in the screenshot you show.
    However, looking deeper, it looks like you can set the value of a specific item in the cluster by way of the property node.  Check out the Link to section of its shortcut menu.  I don't think you can use a local variable to set a given element of the cluster.  Now you could change the value of the entire cluster.  Read the cluster, bundle the new value for that one element, write to a local variable of the cluster.  But you won't be allowed to do that because of the latched booleans that are a part of the cluster.  Hover over the context help of that property node and read the description there as well.

  • Can any body tell me how to make changes in the print layout of Fb03.

    hi,
    Can any body tell me how to make changes in the print layout of Fb03.
    I want to add comapny address on the layout.
    Regards
    Mave

    If you mean the correspondence, you have to change the configuration in Financial Accounting -> AR and AP -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Invoices -> Carry Out abd Check Settings for Correspondence. There, you need to assign your custom Program or Layout for the Correspondence Type (like SAP19) and Program.
    If you mean the display layout in transaction FB03, You can change a few settings, mainly with BKPF and BSEG fields. I don't think you can add company address, though.
    Good luck,

  • I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix

    I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix issues I had fixed in the single files. I need suggestions on what else can be done if any. Using Acrobat pro XI.

    Out of habit, I tend to combine PDF files in the Page Thumbnails pane by right-click then "Insert Pages" -> "From File". For me, this preserves the tags from both documents, although the tags may have to be moved into the right location (if I recall correctly the tags for the inserted pages get put at the end of the tag structure, regardless of where the pages are inserted), If I first put the tags for the document to be inserted inside a container tag like Section, it makes the process easier. Moving that set of tags to the right place is the only re-fixing that I recall having to do. What behavior are you experiencing?

  • How to set property nodes for each of the multiple y-axes?

    In Labview 6i, I have set up multiple y-axes on an xy graph. I want to change certain properties of each of the 2 y-axes independently. I believe I can do this using "property node".
    However, after I have created a property node for the xy graph, I realised that there is only 1 y-axis selectable from the list of properties. How can I set the property of the other y-axis then?
    Thanks for the help!

    I believe there is a property called "active graph"... this allows you to
    select the active graph to apply the property changes to...

  • Setting DAQ channel by property node does not display the value

    I am writing a configuration VI to set channel selection and calibration parameters for an SCXI chassis. I store a default setup in a configuration (ini) file and read that file automatically when the VI is called. The value from the file are set by property nodes using the "Value" property. The values from the file do not display in the DAQ channel selection rings, but the numerical calibration values do display correctly. When I click the down arrow in the channel rings, the correct value displays.
    This behavior exists both in LabView and app-builder EXEs. Also, if I change the property nodes for the DAQ channels to local variables, it works. The Value (signaling) property doesn't cause them to display
    properly either. Why can't I use the property node?

    I don't understand exactly what you are trying to do.
    Please upload a simple VI to demonstrate the behavior you are describing. Remember also to attach the .ini file.

  • How do I configure the mixed signal graph property node to set the plot names

    I have a mixed signal graph displaying digital and analog data in two groups.
    I would like to programmatically set the names of individual plots i.e. rather that the digital graph displaying 'Digital 0->Line 0'  I would like to set it to 'Signal 1'  in the vi.
    How do I do this?
    Probably via the property node but I cant get this to work without errors?  (i.e. i cant find the right combination of node arguments to set.)
    Also,  I can set the names of the plots of the component waveforms programmatically, but when I bundle the plots together to form the mixed signal graph, the plot names are reset to the mixed signal graph default values. Can this behaviour be turned off?

    What are you doing? You need to select the plot first and then set the name, like this:

  • Multiplot waveform graph plots are different colors when set to be the same with a property node.

    The graphs were working yesterday. I made a few changes to another part of the block diagram and now the graphs do not plot all of the plots the same color. I am using a for loop with a property node with the elements active plot connected to the iteration terminal, and plot color to a color box. My for loop increments programmaticaly from another part of the code to create plots as it runs. I have replaced the graphs with new ones and they will work sometimes.
    I am using Win2k and LV 7.1
    Thanks,

    Hi bh3560,
    Have you tried chaging the color by right clicking on the line in the plot legend.  There is an option to change the color of the plot.

  • How can I prevent the cursor from stopping when I press down on the trackpad?

    On my MacbookPro 13" Retina with the new trackpad, when I press down on it and get the force feedback, the cursor stops moving even if I'm still moving my finger. This happens when I miss-click and try to correct myself and when I'm dragging something. It drives me nuts!
    How can I disable it?

    Hi Esquared!
    Thanks for your answer. The problem with this is the following: "Also note that this will only work for applications and text fields that are coded with Apple’s text view coding objects, so programs that use alternative text handling routines may not show a difference in blink rate." So it does only work for pages and keynote and textedit but not for the menu itself and the browser and alle the other areas.
    It seems like there is no overall, no global command available..what a pity

  • Symbole für..... - Modify the project properties using "Property Node"??

    Hi,
    I try to configure automatically the "Symbole für bedingte Deaktivierung" for a project.I have no idea how to translate it. I've attached a screenshot.
    I used the reference for Application -> Project.ActiveProject -> .. I found the Name, Path, Description of the project, but I cannot find these 3 values (from the screenshot).
    I got lost because most of the Properties are in English and my LabView is in German.
    1. Can anyone translate (or make a screenshot) from a English Version - LabView for "Symbole" and "Symbole für bedingte Deaktivierung" window. I'm sure this is going to help me?
    2. It would be even better if someone could tell me directly which property must be modified in order to modify the "Symbole".
    Thanks,
