Color coding attribute ( IEEE 1394 )

Hello,
What is teh correspondance between the value out after a get attributes with attribute input set to "color coding" and the image type? I have only a monochrome camera so I can see that color coding=1 is for 8 bits images but what stands for RGB, HSL,16 bits images etc etc ?
Thank you for your answer !

Hello,
from niimaq1394.h:
IMG1394_COLORID_DEFAULT,
IMG1394_COLORID_MONO8,
IMG1394_COLORID_YUV411,
IMG1394_COLORID_YUV422,
IMG1394_COLORID_YUV444,
IMG1394_COLORID_RGB8,
IMG1394_COLORID_MONO16,
IMG1394_COLORID_RGB16,
IMG1394_COLORID_RGB32,
IMG1394_COLORID_RGB48
In C language, you need to compare the return value to this constances.
In LabVIEW, use Imaq1394Attribute.vi with "color coding" attribut.
Hope this help.

Missing camera attributes with the NI IMAQ for IEEE-1394 driver

I'm using an ORCA-AG and the IEEE-1394 driver. When i look at the camera attributes (either with MAX or the attribtue inquiry vi.) i can see just some of them (brightness, shutter,...). I have tried the ORCA-ER, which has the same attributes, but uses the PCI-1424 framegrabber. Using this camera i can see and modify more attributes (light mode,...). How can i modify them with the IEEE 1394 driver?
I also have another problem. When i use 1x1 binning the image must be 8bits, if is use 16bits, max cannot aquire the image (timeout error). Does anyone have the same problem?
Thank you very much.

Some non-standard attributes can be modified by directly reading and writing to the memory of the camera. Your camera manual probably has memory locations listed for the different attributes. You can get to these using the low level firewire routines. I have done it once or twice.

Color Coding a status report

Hi All,
Is there a way in web dynpro to color code some values retrieved from a RFC call?
For example, say I have a BAPI that returns a status code in a table structure in the form of a character.
'R' - Red, 'Y' - yellow and 'G' -Green. In the web dynpro I loop thru the table to find out how many red, green and yellows have been returned, eg. R = 3, Y = 5 and G = 9.
Can I then show like a color coded progress bar with the actual colors in web dynpro?
Like so, RRRYYYYYGGGGGGGGG, with the letters being the actual colors? Can this be done?
Any suggestions will be greatly welcomed. It doesn't have to be exactly like above.
Thanks
TM

Hi Tony,
I'm new, so feel free to use my approach or not.. =)
I'd first, define three Context Attributes, Red, Yellow, Green (These will reffers to amounts).
You can even, do the sum once, using an Action. You would need to iterate over your table, accessing the Fields and counting by yourself, like:
if ("RED".equals(modelProperty))
red++
if ("YELLOW".equals(modelProperty))
You can also use a switch case if you preffer. You will have the amount of each element in your Value Attributes at that time.
You can define another three Attributes, RedWidth, YellowWidth, GreenWidth, they will be calculated and return type string.
These calculated attributes will:
- Access each value Node, for its color;
- Multiply that guy for any other number you want (to increase width);
- Return Width + px to View
In the View, declare some Images, Red, Yellow, Green colors. I think you can do a 1px image and just resize on the property in runtime. You can define the height in Web Dynpro Layout, no worries. Put them all in a line, with no spaces between each other.. it should look like a bar I think. Remember that we can't manipulate HTML / JS in Web Dynpro (not at least NW04s I think) - so, don't expect some fancy fancy stuff.. =)
Whenever you change the Node (which you put your calculated attributes in) it will update the values, and return new widths.
The second way to do this is, instead of calculating the value in an Action, calculate the value directly in the Calculated Attribute, (iterating thru the main model node, for each respective color) - It will be a bit slowly, however, less nodes are required. You can probably choose what's best for you.
The code itself shouldn't be that hard. Tell me if you need any more information on how to do the stuff.
Regards,
Daniel

"Insufficient resources for this video mode" error in IMAQ for IEEE-1394 1.1

I'm using 3 Sony DFW-X700 cameras (1024x768 YUV 4:2:2) and 1 Sony XCD-X700 (1024x768 8-bit mono) connected to 2 IEEE-1394 adapter cards (3 ports each). I'm running LV 6.1 on WinXP Pro PT.
I've tried several acquisition modes, and the only one that works fine is 'continuous acquisition', using 1 buffer per camera. The problem is that I can only setup 2 color cameras and 1 mono camera. If I try to setup 3 color cameras, I get an 'insufficient resources for this video mode' error. I would like to know if it's possible to configure more memory for the acquisition buffers under IEEE-1394 so that I can avoid this error.

Habil,
You might want to try to lower the frame rate of the cameras. This error is caused because the driver is able to allocate only part of the firewire bandwidth for your image acquisition, and a three camera color acquisition requires a huge amount of bandwidth. This is currently an issue that our R&D department worked this period and is going to be resolved in the next release of the driver. This release should be ready in one month. Good luck!

NI_IMAQ IEEE-1394 bug?

I am starting to familiarize myself with the new v2.0 IEEE-1394 firewwire camera driver VI's and have been working with the property nodes that have replaced the IMAQ1394 Attribute & Attribute Inquiry VIs. I have managed to build a VI that will quite repeatably crash LabVIEW.
It requires:
1) a query of a camera attribute property that is recognized by the property node but not by the camera.
2) a subsequent query of another camera attribute property.
Has anyone else seen this?
An example (for LV 7.0, IEEE-1394 v2.0.0) is attached.

Hello Warren,
Thank you for using our discussion forums. I have taken a look at your VI and seen similar behavior as you described. I noticed that if you remove the bundle by name from the case structure the problem seems to disappear, let me know if you see a similar behavior. Otherwise, I am trying to investigate the problem and will get back with you as soon as I have any updates. Thank you for your patience and have a great day!

Dreamweaver 2014.1 html atributes color coding

This latest version messed up color coding for HTML (notice the HTML tags attributes):
Is this the default now? No way to revert back to the way it was until version 2014?
Thanks

Another solution is to use Colors.xml from Dreamweaver CS6 or CC2014 and overwrite the one from CC2014.1.
I installed Dreamweaver CS6 and copied the file from:
Applications ▸ Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 ▸ Configuration ▸ CodeColoring ▸ Colors.xml
And overwrite the ones in:
Applications ▸ Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 ▸ configuration ▸ CodeColoring ▸ Colors.xml
Users ▸ youruser ▸ Library ▸ Application Support ▸ Adobe ▸ Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 ▸ en_US ▸ Configuration ▸ CodeColoring ▸ Colors.xml
(Not sure if it's necessary to overwrite both...)
Close and reopen Dreamweaver CC2014.1 and you should have the old color code back.
Disclaimer:
I'm not sure if this breaks anything with another languages, but for me it's ok with HTML, CSS, JS and PHP.
You should copy the original Color.xml from Dreamweaver CC2014.1 and save it elsewhere. Don't just rename it. Remove it completely from the CodeColoring folder.
If anything goes wrong, close Dreamweaver and use the original Colors.xml.

How to connect a DV camera through the IEEE 1394 port on my A50?

Hi
I have been trying to connect a video camera to my notebook SA50-109 throught the IEEE 1394 port.. but the notebook didn't recognize the camera at all..
although the camera shows 'DV-in' when i plug the cable witch is (4-pin to 4-pin) DV cable..
is there any thing I need to do before to make it work?
any ideas.. please?

Hi there. Your PC should recognize automatically the DV camera. It's OK to have the firewire (1394) connection shown under "network connections". Next to mine it says "connected" although the harddisk connected to it is switched off. Maybe there is something wrong with the cable? Or, another suggestion, try to restart the laptop while the camera is connected ... Not many further suggestions I'm afraid ... Good luck!

I am using IMovie 11 with a new iMac. Unable to import video from a Panasonic PV-GS400 mini-DV camcorder using a Firewire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter which is then connected to a Thunderbolt to Firewire 800 adapter.

How can I get iMovie to recognize my Panasonic PV-GS400 as a device so I can import video to my iMac? I have a FireWire IEEE 1394 400 cable connected to the camcorder. Since my new iMac has only Thunderbolt ports, I purchased a Firewire 400 to 800 adapter to connect to the cable. I also purchased a FireWire 800 to Thunderbolt adapter to connect to the computer. My camcarder is still not recognized.

I would suggest that you try a 9 pin to 4 pin Firewire Cable along with the Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter.
Those Firewire 400 to 800 adapters do not seem to work well with iMovie.
The 9 pin to 4 pin cables are available at reasonable prices here, for example.

I have messages in mail that are color-coded as if by a rule, but I have no rules set. How can I correct this?

The only rule that I ever had in Mail was the default one that color coded messages from Apple blue. I notice that some messages are color-coded brown and I have no rules set at al (hence no rule to turn off.) Some of the messages are related to viewing online magazine, but not all. How can I stop this?

Hi. Thanks for your message.
Well, I understand what you are trying to say but I thought it was easier to categorize in Apple Mail.
On Entourage I just click twice on a sender address, record it on Address book and give it a colour that I previously defined as "Work", "Personal", "Customers", "Suppliers", "Friends" or whatever.
As Apple Mail don't have Address Book as part of it but an outside feature it's very annoying. Of course I am used to use a software and I don't expect now Apple Mail do everything as Entourage but... as someone said it seems Apple Mail stopped in time. The recent version seems the first one ever issued. I hate the way Mail.app handles attachments by placing big chunky previews right in my email. I prefer them to be named attachments listed somewhere else, out of the content of my email. I don't if I can change this via terminal commands? Can you tell me if that is possible?
I don't understand why Apple Mail have lots of plugins instead of a great improvment from the backstage.
I use Apple computers since ever and I love this machines but sometimes I don't understand this lake of improvments.
Take a look at this link:
http://scottworldblog.wordpress.com/2009/10/12/microsoft-entourage-vs-apple-mail /
Of course I don't agree 100% with him but some things are true...

Is there a way to restore the earlier color-coding format?

If there is a workaround to restore the earlier color-tag format, I would love to know it.
In the alternative, I've submitted the following to Apple and wanted to share it with the community also, in case there is no workaround and others would like to add their voice in addressing the issue:
The new single-dot color coding of tags in Mavericks doesn't work for me AT ALL.
I have been relying on Apple's full-width color coding for quite some time because it could help me easily discern—at a glance—different file versions, project statuses, and other workflow particulars—without having to read the filenames' text. In other words, it's been a convenient right-brain workflow.
The key here, of course, is the idea of "easily" and "at a glance." The new Mavericks color coding both extends and confounds my workflow—I now must do an additional visual search of any given list of files, especially because my filenames are often long (informational) and their middle section (in the column view) is likely truncated to conform to Apple's default narrow column formatting.
The purpose and point of color coding is to reduce time and complexity and aid organization. However, the Mavericks version now requires (1) doing a visual scan of an entire column of filenames, instead of a visual "grab" of whole bands of color without any need to read the filenames, (2) locating the color dots at the ends of those column lines and making sure they correlate with the proper text (left-brain/right-brain work instead of just staying right-brain), (3) making a color comparison of extremely small fields of color (tiny dots instead of full-wide bands), and (4) implementing a visual/mental check step to ascertain that that a particular color dot is the correct one. Because of the added confusion of having to do "manual" left-to-right visual placement, it becomes necessary to add the step of expanding the filenames (column widths) to get certainty.
I'm guessing that at this early point in the Mavericks proliferation you'll likely want to dig your heels in to defend and preserve all the involved and extensive work you did to produce the update, but I strongly urge you to revisit the particular design decision mentioned here. It makes it tougher for us out here using the program, and it works against your PR efforts: I'm now less likely to trust your design decisions and will be much less likely to implement future updates or champion them.
If I could uninstall Mavericks and get my previous version back, just for this one item alone, I would. It's been a mainstay feature for me, and one of the things I've lauded to non-Mac users to encourage them to venture Apple.

Downgrade Mavericks to Your Previous System
For Lion or Mountain Lion
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to a Mountain Lion Installer app or USB flash drive installer:
   Partition and Format the hard drive
      1. Select the target volume you wish to use.
      2. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu in the menubar.
      3. In Disk Utility select the target volume from the left side list. Click on the
          Partition tab in the Disk Utility main window. Set the Partition Scheme to one
          (1) from the drop down menu. Set the Format type to Mac OS Extended,
          Journaled. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
          Quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu. Quit the Main Menu to return to
          the installer.
Install Lion/Mountain Lion: Select install Lion or Mountain Lion and click on the Install button. .
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
For Snow Leopard or Earlier
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups made while on Snow Leopard, then you may do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion/Mountain Lion files.

Navigation and Color Coding

Hello Guys,
I have got couple of design questions.
1. I have a report with a view selector on it(Annual, quarter, month) that navigates to another report with the same view selector(annual quarter month) The problem I have is with the navigation landing pages.
When i changed my report to quarter view from the annual view and then navigate to the report B I still land in ANNUAL view as that is the first view of the report. Users expect to land on quarter view directly based on what they select on the report A.
So i was wondering if there is a way to control the view selector and column selector landing pages when navigation from report A to report B.
2. This is regarding Color coding. I have three columns in my report Year, quarter, month with conditional color coding done on it(when year=09 then red, when month =jan then blue some thing like that). So now the report has both table and pivot view. The users want to see the color coding only on pivot but not on table. Is there a way to achieve that? I tried duplicating the columns and hiding in the table but hiding in the table will hide across all the views. So i am kind of stuck there as well.
Can we control this?
Any advice is appreciated
thanks
Prash

Regarding 2) don't know how feasible this is since I can't see your report, but you can try this:
1) For the columns that you want color-coded, put two instances in your Criteria mode. Now color code one each of those "dual columns" for your pivot table.
2) For the "Table View" build another pivot table, but design it like a table, but this time using the "uncolor-coded" columns in that pivot table and keeping the other columns in the Excluded box.

Calendar App: color coded events...

Hello,
Like most folks I have a number of calendars - home, personal projects, work, etc. Each is handily color coded in Calendar, which is great. So far, so good.
However, in my *single* work calendar (which is served from a company account on Google so pulling in from my company Google Calendar account) I have multiple types of things going on: internal work and then differet clients work. To make sense of my work world I really need to color code my different clients and my company internal work.
So the outcome I am looking for is to be able to color code locally on my MBP different events sourced from the same Google calendar.
I can't see how to do this in Calendar (I'm on OSX 10.8.2 and Calendar 6.0 (1645)) and so far I haven't found a third party app that will do it either.
Please can any one in the community advise:
1. If this is possible how I achieve it (e.g. could I create several calendars locally all of which somehow aggregate up into my single Google work calendar so that my colleagues and clients can see a full and true pictue of availability at the Google level while I have segregated/color coded view of items locally on my MBP)?
2. If this isn't possible in native Calendar app on OSX are there any apps out there that will allow this?
Am I really the only person with this need? I can't believe so and I'm sure someone must have solved this issue already...
Many thanks for your time and consideration of my issue.
Regards,
Richard

It sounds like something that you should be able to do with AppleScript, but alas I'm not proficient enough to tell you how to do it. There used to be an Applescript guru that was a regular on here (Yvan), but I'm not sure if he's still active in the community.
You could try searching google for applescripts related to calendar or iCal (its still called iCal in AppleScript's dictionaries list even on Mountain Lion) or try asking for help on MacScripter.

How do I know if my T400 is with or without IEEE 1394?

My Lenovo automated diagnostics determined that the BIOS software on my T400 is flawed, and that I should download a replacement BIOS.
The page that I am led to gives me a choice of two different BIOSes:
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-74161&selectarea=SUPPORT&tempsel...
One choice is T400's "with IEEE 1394, Package 3.09-1.05" and
the other choice is T400's "without IEEE 1394, Package 3.10-1.05"
How should I decide which BIOS to download?
Thanks, Bob W 31 Aug 10 1153 MDT.

Take a look at the front of the machiine, extreme left, just under where your wristwatch band is w/fingers on the keyboard. There's a small socket there (to the left of the radio on/off switch) labelled "1394" if you have same.

HDX 18/dv8t IEEE 1394/Fire Wire performance problem in Win 7

The IEEE1394 interface lives on the PCI express bus at IRQ 16, which is shared by several other devices. Audio interfaces, such as the M-Audio Pro Fire and Fire Wire series do not work reliably with the shared IRQ. In Vista, by comparison, the IEEE 1394 interface has its own IRQ, and seems to run more reliably.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Well, I found a workaround for my issue. It's described in this article:
[url="iPod not recognized correctly on Toshiba laptop"]http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300836[/url]
By disabling the "Sandard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller" in device manager, my iPod was correctly recognized and I was able to sync with iTunes. That's the good news.
The bad news is that: a) Windows warns me that my "device can operate faster if connected to a USB 2.0 port" - and the sync with iTunes runs slowly; b) if I reanable that USB device (as suggested in the Apple article, my iPod is no longer recognized.
For now, I'll just disable this device when I need to sync, then reenable it when done. But this is going to be a pain. I really don't consider this a fix. It's really annoying that the iPod is the only USB device that requires this kind of nonsense.
Looking forward to a "real" fix for this some time soon.
