Can you edit file properties using Labview?

Except for the file attributes like 'read-only' and 'hidden', Windows 2000 & XP also have file properties like 'keywords', 'comments' and 'description'.
Is there any way that I can edit these properties in Labview?

nope, we never got that far and I am no longer on that project.
And it would be a bitch to implement. Basically those properties are implement using propertysheet handlers. That are shell extensions that can be installed in Windows and in the registry added to one or more file types. On loading the property dialog the shell (basically only an Explorer thing) sees that for that specific file type there are property sheet handlers registered and then loads them as an extra property sheet into the dialog.
There is no common API to retrieve and lets forget about changing the information those property sheet handlers deal with programmatically. And every property sheet handler retrieves the actual properties according to his own private information, such as image properties in JPG files but possible also extra information in the meta data of a file on advanced files systems such as NTFS (the security property sheet for instance).
So you would have to create a Windows dialog, load the according property sheet handlers into it and then have the user deal with that interactively. I doubt that this is what you want.

  • How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!

    Can someone please help me with this query:
    How do you disable "FILE IN USE" pop-ups so you can actually edit and delete PDFs?!
    I continue to have a pop saying that either the file in open somewhere in the serve- which it is not- and I cannot delete a particular pdf or edit it.
    It's incredibly frustrating and in the end I end up having four files with different names because it won't let me edit the original file!!!!

    Hi Amila1,
    Are the pdfs stored on a network location?
    If so is the Preview pane turned ON?
    Please check the doc: http://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle10862.aspx

  • Can you move files back and forth between an iPad and a PC using iTunes?

    If I read this article correctly, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094 I should be able to connect my iPad to my PC, fire up iTunes and then on the Apps tab in iTunes I should be able to click on an app, Pages for example and then just drag files onto the Pages Documents column from a Windows Explorer window.
    This is great.  I was hoping to use DropBox but it is such a hassle I don't know why people are so thrilled with DropBox on iPad.  If I can just move files back and forth using iTunes that should be fairly easy.  I wish there was a way to just upload my files to iCloud from my PC but the iCloud control panel app for Windows only seems to connect Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. I want to be able to just carry my iPad and not have to deal with a computer. 
    I thought that they said that you didn't need to have a computer to have an iPad.  I guess if you have a computer and then GET an iPad its a different story, unless you have a Mac of course.
    Anyway my question is: can you move files back and forth between a PC and an iPad using just iTunes?

    I still need to do some trial and error testing with DropBox and my iPad.  But can I link my iPad to my DropBox account so that I can always see the files on DropBox when I open Pages on my iPad?  I just want one place to store my documents, and iCloud doesn't seem to be up to the task when it comes to opening a fil;e, editing it and then saving it back to iCloud.  I just want a networked storage location that works like a networked drive on my LAN.
    I realize that hollywood and the music industry are up in arms about file sharing on the Cloud which is why so many things are made more difficult than they need to be. 

  • Can you edit text after saving your file as pdf

    I have recently created a letterhead in Illustrator.
    Is there a way to change a person name and title after saving it as a pdf file? I heard something about creating a form in Acrobat professsional.
    I need to print out a letterhead with different peoples name and title. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Can you edit the text in Acrobat Reader?
    Yes, if you use Acrobat Pro to save the PDF as a Reader-enabled form.
    1. Create your letterhead in Illustrator (or whatever). Leave design space for, but do not create text objects that you want to be editable.
    2. Save as PDF.
    3. Open the PDF in Acrobat Pro. Use Acrobat's Form tools to add text fields whereever you want the end users to be able to key text.
    4. Select the Enable Reader Usage Rights command in Acrobat to make the form fields edtiable in Reader. Save the file.
    Recipients of the PDF can now open it in Reader, edit the content of the fields, and save the file with their edits.

    WHAT KIND OF FILES CAN YOU EDIT IN IMOVIE!

    The PCMCIA digital TV tuner card I have is the Formac Watchandgo which I purchased here for the equivalent of around US$50:

    However, it is only usable in countries which use the PAL TV system (such as Europe and here in Australia).
    I’m not familiar with the American NTSC TV system, or what TV tuners might be available. You will probably find most tuners are USB these days.

  • Nikon D90 footage: Can you edit natively in Final Cut?

    Just wondering if anyone has been using the new Nikon D90 to shoot video, and then importing the footage natively into FCP6. The camera's video-recording format, from what I have read, is 720p24, an .avi file, and a Motion JPEG codec.
    I see that in the settings for a Final Cut sequence, you can choose 1280X720 frame size, a true 24 frames per second rate, and either a Motion JPEG A or Motion JPEG B compressor. It seems like with these settings, you could put your footage into the timeline and not have to render it before editing . . . unless the .avi file format goofs it up. Can you edit .avi in Final Cut natively, or do you have to use a Quicktime file?
    Any workflow advice much appreciated,
    Jim

    No, sorry to say, I do not own the camera. And in looking around the web for an original, as-shot-by-the-D90 clip to experiment with, the only ones I found were at this site:
    http://www.dpreview.com/news/0809/08090101nikond90samplegallery.asp
    They were billed as: D90 sample movie 1 • original .AVI format • 21 seconds, 35.7 MB
    and: D90 sample movie 3 • original .AVI format • 9 seconds, 24.5 MB
    So I downloaded them, imported them into Final Cut, and they showed up with settings in the browser of: 1280X720 and 24 fps (so far so good) but then a compressor setting of "Apple OpenDML JPEG" rather than what I was expecting, Motion JPEG, which is what the D90 spec is. If the clip was truly "original .AVI format," I would have expected the compressor setting to be Motion JPEG.
    Then, when I tried to change the sequence settings to Apple OpenDML JPEG, I found that there is no such setting. My thought was if the size, 1280X720, the frame rate, 24, and the compressor settings all matched, you could edit natively. And when I dragged the clip into the timeline, it did not give me a dialogue box asking if I would like the sequence settings to match the clip, the way it does with some footage.
    Yes, you can render the clip and then edit it, but it would be great to avoid that step. Anyway, I got the red bar in the timeline with every combination of sequence compressor settings I tried, maybe 10 of them.
    So maybe the answer is some time is needed for Final Cut to support the D90's Motion JPEG files natively, though I believe that is an older codec. Too bad the D90 does not record in something like DVCPRO HD. For a $1000 camera, the image quality looks pretty good, and the shallow depth of field really turned my head. I was thinking it might be a cheap Red Rock or Letus killer.
    Thanks for the input,
    Jim

  • Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same macbook pro?

    Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same MacBook Pro?
    Specifically, I used the Migration Assistant to move music and photos from my old PC to my new MacBook. 
    Somehow, I missed the fact that it was creating a new user account when it was doing this.  So none of music and photos are in the user account I originally set-up.  Instead, all these files are now in a different account.
    I'd like to consolidate all my files on the one user account and delete the other one.
    Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?
    Thank you.

    you can crop files from one account to another using the Public Dropbox which every user account has.  Log into the user that has the files you want to move, then drag the folder you want to the new users' dropbox:
    I suggest a small scale test on a few files first before moving gigabytes of files.

  • Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?

    Subject: Re: Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?
    Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, this is done often. You will need to create a Mask of that person, to separate them from the background of the original Image.
    I like to do this with a Layer Mask, as it offers control, and really does not alter the Image, so you can go back and make changes.
    Let's say that you have Image 01 w/ the head of your subject, and want to place it into Image 02. In Image 01, make a rough Selection. I would include a bit of extra background, as we will take care of that in a moment. With that Selection active, Copy the head shot. Go to Image 02, and Paste it. It will Paste in its own Layer. Ctrl+T (Free Transform) can be used to Scale and also position that Layer with the head. Once you have that Scaled and positioned about where you want it, create a Layer Mask. In QuickMask Mode, just paint in the additional Mask to remove all traces of the background that came in with the head shot. As you can paint OUT, and also paint IN the Mask, you can work on this, as many times as you wish - even next year.
    For getting that Layer Mask looking good, work slowly, also see this http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/photoshop/l/blrbps_5agirl.htm.
    I've got another tutorial, that addresses the hair area, and will post that, when I find my bookmark.

  • Can you edit muse cc in dreamweaver

    Hi
    Can you edit Muse CC in Dreamweaver ?

    This question is really best on the Dreamweaver or Muse forums but here is the answer I found:
    "Muse is not intended to be a code generation hand-off tool for downstream editing. We recommend you do all of your site editing in Muse, rather than exporting the site from Muse and editing the code elsewhere. By staying within Muse, you can continue to use the full functionality of Muse to update your site. As soon as you move to altering the output of Muse, there's no going back (unless you're willing to re-make your changes each time you export from Muse). The HTML code output from Muse is not optimized for manual editing."
    Form this forum post: Re: Muse to Dreamweaver?
    So while it may be possible it is not recommended.
    Hope that helps.

  • How to create fourier transform properties using labview

    Hi everyone
    i am a new user to Labview and i only have 2 weeks left to complete an assignment.
    This assignment involves the implementation of the various types of fourier transform properties using Labview. These properties include linearity, time shifting, frequency shifting, time scaling,
    I do not really know how to implement them using Labview
    PLS HELP!!!
    Thanks

    i am refering to the fourier transform properties listed below:
    A) time shifting
    x(t-a) ------- >  exp (-jwa) X(w) 
    For the time shifting property above, i have problem creating the exponential term using labview
    B) time scaling
    x(at)-----------> 1/a X (w/a)
    C) Time convolution
    Y(w) = F[h(t) * x(t)] = H(w)X(w)
    where * stands for the convolution operation and F stands for fourier transform
    Please provide diagrams if possible. Thank you

    Hi,
    Why do you want to use LDAP for Hard disk monitoring..???
    U can do this by creating a MD5 checksum for all the files existing in some
    perticular
    directory and every hour or any configurable period u can recalculate the
    checksum
    to find out the change in the content.
    I guess all u need is to get the code for "updatedb" utility of Linux and
    instrument it for ur needs..
    Hope it helps...

  • Can you edit Muse website without Muse?

    I'm creating a website for a community group.  I'd like them to be able to update their annoucements and events without my help if they need to.  For events, we can use a Google calendar but if they want to update the front page with an announcement or something, I'd like them to able to do so.  Some of the people are ok with code but do not have access to Muse software.

    Should I create the website in a different way like Weebly, etc?

    Yes, I've got the Creative Cloud thing so I was going to host it there.  It's a community garden that's just getting started and I'll be traveling for a few weeks this summer and I'm afraid that they may need to update things while I'm gone.  Plus I don't want to be the sole person who can keep it going.
