Cannot change precision of digital display of a numerical control

Hi,
This may be a stupid question. But in the attched slider control, I am unable to set the precision of the digital display. I can only set the precision of the scale. What do I need to do? Thanks.

In the upper left of the display format tab of the properties dialog box, select digital display.
I agree that it could be implemented better, for example if you right-click on the digital display ...display format. it should land on the dialog with the digital display selected. It currently does not.
(as a general rule, you should avoid overlapping controls. It hurts redraw performance)

Loading Knob Digital Display Text Labels from External File

I have a knob interface. I display it on the instrument's front panel with the digital display.
The knob controls the settings on an external GPIB switch. The value of the 6 devices selected changes. I want to see the numbers 1 thru 6 on the knob, but the knob's digital display needs to show something like "12.5-13.5 MHz BPF".
I want to load the text visible in the knob's digital display from an external file located on the machine. I will not have the possibility of changing the VI for each location.
Can you do that?
If not, would an a case or event structure containing a text indicator, with text values read in from a file, be the best apporach?

If you don't have 8.0 and XControls, you can do something like the attached. I edited the knob control and then replaced the digital display with a text ring.Message Edited by Dennis Knutson on 04-21-2006 12:32 PM

When I connect my iPod touch to my stereo, I cannot skip tracks using my iPod or the stereo controls.

When I connect my iPod touch to my stereo, I cannot change tracks using the iPod or the stereo controls. I did not have this problem with my iPod nano. I have the software update 4.2.1 installed. Is it a problem with the software or the stereo? Please help.

How to change slider control digital display precision from program

I want to change slider control digital display precision from my Labview 2013 program. I can not find property that changes slider digital display format.
Solved!

rt clk the digital display>create>property node>format string
you could also do the slide scale, if needed...
from the front panel:rt clk properties>goto display format tab>goto drop down list and pick "digital display 0" and format

Comment on usual method and solution, by a forum Moderator.
As long as there are no confounding factors, such as certain extensions, or a user.jsfile the procedure is as follows
# Open a new tab and type "about:config" in the address bar.
# In the Search bar type: "newtab"
# Locate and double click "browser.newtab.url"
# In the "Enter String Value" box change "'''about:newtab'''" to "'''about:blank'''" and click OK.
# Verify that the value has changed and now all new tabs will be blank.

Have to say that I rather agree with Mark..all we want is a simple, unadorned clean page that doe not track and show usage!! WHY NOT!! Is it too simple for developers..we aren't all (nor do we want to be!) software experts! Come on Mozilla..tidy up and clean up..it might be a quicker programme too!!

How do I change the number of significant digits in a slide's digital display?

I suspect I'm missing something really obvious. I want the slide's digital display to show 1.23 instead of 1.23456. Here's what I tried:
1. Drop a Horizontal Pointer Slide
2. Make its Digital Display visible
3. Type 1.23456 into that display
4. Pop up on the Digital Display and select "Display Format..."
5. Change the number of significant digits to 3 and hit "OK"
The digital display still shows 1.23456. What am I missing?
Solved!

LOL - I had the same problem. Hidden in plain sight! All I saw was Numeric, and thought "Duh! Of course it's numeric - it's a slider!"
I do think NI could do a much better job on this, perhaps with more informative labelling. Slider Scaling or Scale Format might be better. Also, since one can select the Digital Display by itself on the front panel, one should be taken directly to the digital display formatting when Properties is selected, instead of still having to change the dropdown. By selecting the digital display instaead of the slider, you're implying that you want to change its format only.

Cannot change and display the file in document CV02N

Hi All,
When i create a document in CV01N transaction ,upload a word file ,
save and change the status, for some reason the uploaded word document file goes in unchecked (unlocked ) mode.
and this doesn't happen daily, its one of those situations when user does something funny.
Later when the Approver wants to approve the document in CV02N he cannot open the file because (of error "cannot be accessed") its not uploaded properly in content server and cannot change status to Reject because of error "Status can only be set when all originals are stored".
Please can anyone help me to find out what might be the problem for these kind of scenarios and how do i deal a document in a status where the the uploaded file is in unlocked status.
NOTE: Around 2500 users using the present process and i get only 2 to 5 scenarios like the above once in a while . so looking for a permanent fix for this problem.
Thanks in Advance
Sud

Dear Sud,
I think we should focus here on the reason for the error message (26 172) and therefore I would recommend you to see the information under http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/26172-Reasonforthiserror

Can you use lower case in other files? If not, then go to the far right of the tool options and click the little four-lined square and choose Reset Tool.

Chart digital display format keeps changing

I am running Labview 8.5.1 on windows XP. My digital display for my chart keeps changing to %.2f format when I run the VI.
I tried setting the display format to scientific but as soon as I run the VI, it changes back to floating point. I have included the VI. By the way, this did not work for 8.2.1
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I was unable to reproduce your problem. I changed the format to scientific on all the front panel digital controls and they will not change back for me. I wonder if you need to use the Edit-> Make Current Values Default option in the LabVIEW menu.
I attached a copy of your vi. Modified with the new format. Let me know if it loads correct.
Sorry I was not able to the find or load the init portion of your vi.

Completely unsolvable: Cannot change screen brightness after I upgraded my ThinkPad's display.

I have a ThinkPad X240 which came with a 1366x768 TN panel, I hated it and so after a while I upgraded it to an IPS 1080p display. It works great and looks fantastic except it's stuck on max brightness inside of Windows 8.1. I cannot change the brightness inside of Intel HD graphics settings or inside of programs like Display Tuner. It doesn't work in Windows 10 either. The weird thing is, I can change the brightness just fine inside of Ubuntu. I've tried uninstalling the Intel HD drivers and reinstalling them, I've tried switching the drivers to the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, and none has worked. I feel like I've installed every single version of Intel's Graphics Drivers and that I've done everything and it still won't change the bloody brightness. NOTHING has worked except to just use Ubuntu, which is not an adequate solution. I've even gone as far as to update my BIOS and reset it to defaults, I've even pulled the CMOS battery. I've tried the version of the Intel HD driver from Lenovo for the X240 and I've installed the monitor.ini files. I've also just learned that during the Windows Boot Logo, the FN keys WILL change the brightness, but as soon as Windows is done booting, it stops working. This, coupled with the fact that brightness control works in Ubuntu means that this must be something related to Windows right? Brightness control works in BIOS. I've even gone so far as to try and change the brightness through CMD using powercfg according to this post. http://superuser.com/questions/472081/can-i-force-a-greater-screen-brightness-from-windows-command-prompt I'm really starting to lose patience now as it has been like this for 3 weeks and I can't be using Ubuntu all of the time, I honestly do not know what to do, it seems like this problem is completely unsolvable. Edit: I even got so frustrated that I switched off the laptop, installed the old screen, booted up Windows, and the brightness worked. Then (I know this is a bad idea) WHILE IT WAS ON, I pulled the old display and put connected the new one. And lo and behold, the brightness **bleep**ING worked in windows on the new display.

try change drivers

How can I stop Firefox 4 from displaying "The document cannot change while Printing or in Print Preview" from appearing every time I click on File/Page Preview?

Clicking on File/Page Preview in Firefox 4 brings up a warning dialog "The document cannot change while Printing or in Print Preview" every time. How can I stop this from happening? It is very annoying, and it is necessary to click "OK" on this dialog twice before it will go away. Thank you.

Does it behave that way in [[Safe Mode]] ?
If it doesn't, then one of your add-ons in the culprit.

I was on my computer when i checked the back which it was really dusty, i tried unscrewing the bottom however some screws were too tight so i took it upon myself and got a rod and startedremoving the dust off the vents and i may have clicked something as i closed the lid on the macbook i could hear the sounds still from the film but the lid was closed as i opened it back up the brightness was on low but sounds were still playing.

Cannot change posting date of a parked document. See addt'l details inside

Hello again SAP experts,
I was just wondering how come I cannot change the posting date of a parked document. The document type of the said parked document is a "BATCH INPUT" only document type.I already set in config that the posting date be changeable for parked docs.
Is it not possible to change the posting date even if the status is only parked? Our client requires that the posting date still be changeable for BATCH INPUT only doc types. Please help.
BTW, listed below is the error message that the system displays. Thanks
Document type AA only defined for batch input

Hi Loong,
First and foremost, thanks for your time answering my queries. =)
Going back to the topic, the OB32 suggestion didn't solve the issue. I added BKPF-BUDAT in the list, and made sure that it applies to all account types. I also tagged it as changeable field.Still, the system displays the error Document type AA only defined for batch input
Is there such a rule that for doc types that are tagged as for BATCH INPUT only, you cannot change the posting date?
Our client requires that the posting date still be editable.
Please help. Thanks a lot!

Cannot change COGE in open Purchase Order

Hi expert,
I have a problem in a customer Business One system.
I upgrade from 8.8 to 8.81 PL10.
BEFORE the upgrade, people inserted purchase Order and, in case the CoGe account was wrong, they changed it before to create Goods Receipt from Order.
AFTER the upgrade, they CANNOT change this value even if the new order is not inserted yet... simply, it is NOT editable. Note, in the Table Format the column is Visible and Editable.
What appened? Any idea to allow user to change CoGe Account during document compilation?
Thx,
Jonny

Cannot change printer properties when printing PDF files in IE8

Whenever I try to print a PDF file displayed within IE8, I cannot change the printer properties from the print dialogue box. the properties button appears as if it as if it is active because it visually confirma a click; however no properties dialogue box appears. printing html from IE8 works fine.
If I save the PDF to desktop and print from there, I can change properties fine.
Running Win7/64; IE8 (32 bit version). Another PC in the household, also running Win7/64 and IE8/32 does not exhibit this problem.
Printer is Officejet 6500 E709a connected to local workgroup via ethernet cable; I have uninstalled via add remove programs and reinstalled the printer software from the HP CD. It did not help.

I cannot access 'properties' for my hp1536dnf mfp.
