Cant get IMAQ write file 2 to ask user for the path.

I am currently using an IMAQ write file 2 to create a .bmp image. I have the VI attached to a control path that allows the user to enter the path where they want to save the file. However I dont want the user to have to make sure they typed the path in before the IMAQ write file executes. I want the program to work so that when the IMAQ write file executes a window appears asking the user where they would like to save the file. If someone could help me out I would appreciate it thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Use the File dialog VI under File I/O >> Advanced File Functions palette

  • Upload file without asking user for the file

    Hi,
    I need to upload a file to server, but from my code, not using the file upload from page.
    I have created a xml file and I need to upload to server when user open a web browser (without asking user to select a file).
    How do I proceed??, or what kind of libraries do I must use?
    thanks

    Hi,
    thanks for answer.
    Let me try to explain again (I think its very simple).Simple, yes. But not very thorough.
    I have developed a web application using JSF.So all the code is running on the server, right? There are no Applets, Applications or WebStart applications involved. Right?
    My application has a splash screen where I show data. I have developed a bean to connect to my database (sql server), extract this data and create an xml (using DOM) file like:
    <news>
    <simplenews id="1"> Value </simplenews>
    </news>And that bean runs ... where? Server again?
    (important step) Once I have created the xml file in my bean I want to upload to the server to a place like /WEB-INF/news.
    If the code is running on the server, then "uploading" is the wrong term, as there's nowhere to upload to, since you're already on the server.
    This may sound like nit-picking, but you're sending us on a wrong trail with this phrase.
    Once the file is on the server with another bean I read the xml fileWhy don't you simply store it in the application scope and let everyone access it from there? It doesn't sound as if the XML is huge.
    As you can see I haven't a web page where to show an upload file componetYou also don't want to "upload" anything from the client, from the sound of it.
    You simply want to transfer data between to server-side components, if I understood you correctly.

  • File acces denied @ IMAQ Write File 2

    Hi,
    I've started a  project using Vision Development Module and I'm stuck in saving some templates to a folder.
    I tried many other ' methods' using the same Imaq Write File 2 and all have the same error...
    Below it's a basic example. 
    Maybe somebody  can provide a correct solutions or give me an idee about what might be wrong.
    I'm loosing my mind soon
    PS: I gave Full Control Acces to all users ...
    Thanks in advance!
     

    Thanks for your reply!
    Actually, in the main vi I'm using grab function.
    The thing is... i'm using Folder Path instead File Path... If I'm creating a control from  vi's path terminal, it will create a File Path control which needs  : "the complete pathname, including drive, directory, and filename, of the file to write".  But I cannot have  a filename before I get a picture. Maybe there is another vi which has to be  used before, for setting the filename???
    Don't worry about "F" drive. I've already tried the other drives and same thing.
    Thanks!

  • Cant get list of files from a folder (even though the folder and files are created with the same app)

    Ok so each character rolled with my app gets saved as an html file in a folder i create on the sdcard called RpgApp
    the code to do this is 
    private async Task saveToHtmlCharacter(string name)
    StorageFolder externalDevices = Windows.Storage.KnownFolders.RemovableDevices;
    StorageFolder sdcard = (await externalDevices.GetFoldersAsync()).FirstOrDefault(); //Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder;
    var dataFolder = await sdcard.CreateFolderAsync("RpgApp",
    CreationCollisionOption.OpenIfExists);
    var file = await dataFolder.CreateFileAsync(name+".html",
    CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);
    using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(await file.OpenStreamForWriteAsync()))
    writer.WriteLine("<html><head><title>Character File for " + z.charNameFirst + " " + z.charNameSecond + "</title></head><body>");
    //trimed for the post
    now this as i say works perfectly and i can confirm that the files show up in the "RpgApp"folder
    now the next step is to have the app read the names of each of those html files and create a seperate button for each one named for the filename and with the filename as content (later i will link them up to load the html file they are named for in a webbrowser
    panal)
    here is the code that *should* do that
    private async Task readFiles()
    z.test.Clear();
    StorageFolder externalDevices = Windows.Storage.KnownFolders.RemovableDevices;
    StorageFolder folder = (await externalDevices.GetFolderAsync("RpgApp"));
    IReadOnlyList<StorageFile> fileList = await folder.GetFilesAsync();
    //z.test.Add("dummy");
    foreach (StorageFile file in fileList)
    z.test.Add(file.Name);
    public async void buttonTest()
    await readFiles();
    CoreDispatcher dispatcher = CoreWindow.GetForCurrentThread().Dispatcher;
    await dispatcher.RunAsync(CoreDispatcherPriority.Normal, () =>
    foreach (string name in z.test)
    Button button1 = new Button();
    button1.Height = 75;
    button1.Content = name;
    button1.Name = name;
    testStackPanal.Children.Add(button1);
    now i say should as what i get is an error of "A first chance exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' occurred in mscorlib.ni.dll" (2 of them in fact one after another)
    more detailed error is at http://pastebin.com/3hBaZLQ9
    now i went through checking line after line to find the error and line that causes it is:
    StorageFolder folder = (await externalDevices.GetFolderAsync("RpgApp"));
    in the readFiles method
    i checked to make sure the case is right etc and its spot on, that IS the folder name, and remember my app creates that folder and creates the files that are inside that folder (and only files my app creates are in that folder) so it should have access
    im 100% stuck its taken me all day to get the files to save and now i cant get them to list correctly
    I have tested the button creation function with fake list data and that worked fine, as i say the error is when i tell it to look at the folder it created
    all help most greatfully recieved

    this was actually solved for me on another forum thread 
    async Task<bool> continueToReadAllFiles(StorageFolder folder)
    if (folder == null)
    return false;
    if (folder.Name.Equals("RpgApp", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase))
    var files = await folder.GetFilesAsync();
    foreach (var file in files)
    test.Add(file.Name);
    return false;
    var folders = await folder.GetFoldersAsync();
    foreach (var child in folders)
    if (!await continueToReadAllFiles(child))
    return false;
    return true;
    public async void buttonTest()
    test.Clear();
    StorageFolder externalDevices = Windows.Storage.KnownFolders.RemovableDevices;
    var folders = await externalDevices.GetFoldersAsync();
    foreach (var folder in folders)
    if (!await continueToReadAllFiles(folder))
    break;
    //.... commented out
    ...now i say solved this is more a workaround...but it works.
    I would love to know why we cant just scan the RpgApp folder instead of having to scan the whole dc card and disregard all thats not in the RpgApp folder

  • Probleme avec Imaq write file qui n'enregistre pas les images en jpg

    Bonjour,
    dans le cadre d'un stage, je suis en train de dévellopper un programme qui récupère une vidéo issue d'une caméra usb. Jusque là tout vas bien. Mais je souhaite réalisé une vidéo a partir d'une suite d'image au format jpeg que le programme aura enregistrer dans un dossier.
    Mon probleme etant que Imaq write file 2 que j'utilise n'arrive pas a enregistrer les image au format jpg (alors qu'il y arrive au forma png, tiff ou jpg2000). Ainsi, lorsque je lance la capture, le programme a l'air de faire des opération mais lorsque je vais dans le dossier où doivent etre entreposé les jpeg, celui ci est vide.
    J'utilise labview 2010 et suis sous windows 7 x64 bits.
    Merci d'avance pour l'aide que vous pourez m'apporter.

It tells me I have typed incorrect pw. What's wrong? I even called my internet server and they cant help! They're saying my nephew must have a block. I asked my nephew and he said "what r they talking about, I have no block"  Can anyone help ME PLZ.

    When you go to Settings > WiFi and see your network name does it have a padlock icon to the right of the network name? If so it is a secured network with a password.
    How did you connect to your network from the iPad? From Settings > Wifi? Was a network password requested? Was it accepted?
    If you touch the ">" to the right of your network name what do you see for IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, and DNS?

    I recently had to get a new windows computer, old one crashed. My tech guy got all my itunes library over to the new one, and all my songs are there. However, some won't play and ask me for the password for the apple id they were purchased under. 2 of these ids are obsolete and I have no access to those accts. The songs all played on my old computer without prompting me for a password.
    Any ideas how I can get around this hassle and get them all to play? We're talking about 800 songs that are being obstinate. The new computer is authorized under my "new" Apple id, which I have used for years.

    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

    Thanks b noir,
    I tried this solution without success. After FixIt ran and didn't find a problem, either in looking for issues with "software upgrade" or "iTunes" it kindly offered to help me uninstall iTunes. I had thought of this as a possibilty but it seems to me that if you do that you lose a lot of "non-native-to-Apple" information you might have entered. I did this once and recovery was painfull. Is there a way to uninstall iTunes without losing all of that sort of thing? Any help would be appreciated.
