Control MovieClip that's inside ScrollPane

Does anyone know if it's possible to access and modify a
MovieClip that's been placed in a ScrollPane? I want to be able to
manipulate a MovieClip at runtime with ActionScript, but allow the
viewer to scroll the MovieClip...
Do I need to find a different approach that doesn't use the
ScrollPane component?

Is the movieclip part of the content of the scrollpane?
I use the following line of code to affect one of the MCs
that are in the
scrollpane as part of the content.
_root.csp_scrollingBullets.spContentHolder["bullet_1"].gotoAndPlay(1)
HTH,
If you have questions, my email is [email protected]

Control MovieClip with FlashVars

Let me start from the top, I hope I can explain this well
enough so you guys can make sense of this.
I have a cfm page with a list/menu pulldown that submits a
category name to the same page it resides on using
an onChange.
Based upon which category is submitted I query the DB for
subcategories.
There is a flash movie in the page as well and it takes those
subCats and populates the FlashVars
e.g.;
<cfif isDefined ('FORM.category')>
<cfoutput><PARAM NAME=FlashVars
VALUE="category=#getCat.category#
<cfif #getsubCats.recordCount# GT 0>
&whichFrame=on
&subCat1=#getSubCats.subCat[1]#
<cfelse>
&whichFrame=off &subCat1=Available Booth
I do this for 10 seperate variables subCat1 thru subCat10.
The Flash movie picks up the subCats
and works just fine. But I'm trying to control a movie clip
with the whichFrame var.
The name of the clip is H1 and the script is:
_root.H1.gotoAndPlay(whichFrame);
There is a frame labled "on" and a frame labled "off" inside
of H1. If I manually set the variable on the stage
to on, the clip goes to the "on" frame, and when I select a
subCat that has no entry, the clip goes to "off"... BUT
only the first time I do it. From that point on the clip
won't play...
I'm losin my marbles over this one, any help at all would be,
as always, greatly appreciated!

if I read this right, you have drawn a square on stage, put
it inside a movieclip, and associated that clip with the class
"Vierkant". I this is what you've done, then the asset is already
on the stage, so you should see it for sure, unless it's positioned
off-stage.
If the above assumption is correct, in your class code,
square = new MovieClip(); is a blank movieclip that you
created. It's not the square that's in the FLA. The square that
you're trying to have show up is the Vierkant class object itself,
i.e. "this".

Control MovieClip with a Class? A.S. 3.0

Hello,
I have a question. In my fla file i have drawn a square. I
gave it a class name "Vierkant".
In the same folder i created this class. Why doesn't there
apear a square ?
Or is this not possible from within a class?

Identify y value of a control in a component inside another component

Hi,
I need to programmingly find out the y value of a control.
But it is inside a component that is inside anther component. Also,
it is inside a VBox. In the main file, I trace it using:
this[comp1][comp2].VBoxName.y
But it shows 0, which is not correct.
Any ideas?

You'll probably have to make [Bindable] public variables or
set methods in your components to pass that value all the way down
to where you need to reference it.
Try passing it from the outer parents down to the children,
not referencing from the children up to the parents.

Is it possible to call a VI that is inside a LabVIEW executable from a TestStand sequence?

I have created a custom TestStand operator interface and have modified the default sequential process model to display a UUT information dialog that prompts for more information than just the UUT serial number. This UUT information dialog is a LabVIEW VI. To distribute the operator interface, I build it into an executable. As part of the build process, I make a copy of the UUT information dialog VI (which is part of my operator interface project) and place it in the same folder as the executable. I have then configured the sequential process model to call the dialog VI from this location. It would be really nice if I could embed the UUT information dialog VI inside the operator interface executable so that I could distribute just an executable instead of an executable and separate VIs. Is this possible? In other words, is it possible to call a VI that is inside a LabVIEW executable from a TestStand sequence just like a standard LabVIEW VI call?

Ryan,
The dialog that you've created isn't being directly called by the OI at all and shouldn't need to be included in the same directory as the OI for distribution. Since you are modifying the PreUUT of the default process model, you will give the path to the VI in that step, create a deployment and then manually copy the VI to the directory referenced in the step. The VI is considered a support file for the process model and is not related to the OI at all.

How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's inside other movie clip?

Hi.
I creating my first flash (actionscript 3.0) website but I'm
stuck with a visual effect I want to create.
I have a window on my website called contentWindow. Every
time you click a button this window is supposed to leave the stage,
load the requested content and return to the stage.
The sliding window is a movie clip with 83 frames, 21 to
enter the stage, 21 to leave the stage again, 20 for nothing (its
just to simulate the loading time) and 21 to return to the stage.
Now my goal is, when the user clicks on a navigation button,
the window exits the stage, loads an external SWF with the content,
and then returns to the stage.
I've the "window" movie clip with an instance name of
"contentWindow". Inside there is another movie clip with an
instance name of "contentLoader". The content that the user
requested should appear inside the "contentLoader".
Now, when the contentWindow leaves the stage, I get this
error message:
quote:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
a null object reference.
at rwd_fla::MainTimeline/trigger()
If I switch
"contentWindow.contentLoader.addChild(navLoader);" for
"contentWindow.addChild(navLoader);" it works fine, but the
external SWF doesn't move with the window.
How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's
inside other movie clip?

Hi,
Recently, I have been putting together a flash presentation.
And I am just wondering if the following might help you, in your
communication with the said swf file:
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
onComplete);
function onComplete(event:Event):void
event.target.content.thinggy_mc.y -= 100;
Not the best example, but this allows you to target a mc
within an external swf file. I think if you look up this code, you
will have an answer ;)
Kind Regards,

Import media dialog is not showing me folders, instead showing me every singe file that's inside all of the folders on my desktop? What gives?

So i'm trying to import media that's on my desktop, one clip that's inside a folder. when I choose import media and the dialog box opens, I choose desktop to navigate to the folder but there are no folders found. FCP starts loading all of the files individually that are inside all of the folders on my desktop. I can't for the life of me figure out why it's doing this. Has anyone else had a similar issue?

DSounds like you have a folder on the desktop with the name of a camera folder something like DCIM or PRIVATE that makes the application read the containing folder the Desktop as if it were a camera drive.

Is it possible to create a remote controled VI that could be simultaneus pararell executed by several clients?

Hi,
first of all, excuse my low-level english.
i have an aplication that consist in an waveforms analizer, with a main front panel and few sub panels, where data comes from *.tdms files in pc memory.
I want to develope a remote monitored and controled project that could be used by few clients simultaneus, where they can load their own files in to the programm. It´s possible to run more than one instance of the VI at the same time.
i´m checking the WEB UI Builder specifications, but i´m not sure if this is possible.
thanks.

Hi, Ángeniero,
it is possible to control an application running on a server by several client computers simultaneously. There are two factors: licenses and reentrant execution. You can read it in the following document:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/2E814A22B7660EA786256BD500652F2C
As regards reentrant execution, this functionality is added from LabVIEW 8.2 and higher, as you can see in this parragraph:
"LabVIEW 8.20 introduced Reentrant Remote Front Panels which allow multiple users to simultaneously control a VI remotely. For more information on this reentrant functionality, see the Web Event in the related links section."
All you have to do is marking your VIs as reentrant (File >> VI Properties >> Categoty: Execution). Every client computer will access to a different copy of the VI located on the server memory, so client computers can manage different data in spite of the fact that the server application is the same. You can watch this video for further information:
http://zone.ni.com/wv/app/doc/p/id/wv-106/nextonly/y
I hope this helps!
Un saludo.
Jesús.

How can I read and write text in rings that are inside an array?

Hello All!!!
How can I read and write text in rings that are inside an array?
Regards and thanks in advance.

Use a Property Node linked to the Ring inside the array.
Of course, all elements in the array will have the same text values.

LabView TEDS library into DLL or ActiveX Control so that I can use it in C or Visual Basic?

We are developing software in LabWindows/CVI and Microsoft C. I heard that LabView can generate DLLs. Can I turn LabView TEDS library into DLL or ActiveX Control so that I can use it in C or Visual Basic development environment?

Technically what you are proposing is possible with LabVIEW. With LabVIEW's application builder, VIs can be built into dlls. Also, LV has ActiveX hooks and so you could create a system for calling into it from CVI. However, this is not what I would recommend.
The LabVIEW VIs have been written to a preliminary version of the IEEE specification (1451.4) that describes the TEDS data which is primarily why I'm advising you against using them. Once the IEEE spec is approved (the current timeline is currently late March), it will become public and you can write your own code according to the specification (or wait for someone else to write it). To help you get started, the spec includes flex and bison code that describes the syntax and structure of the template files
Internally, we've written some C, C++ and Java code to the preliminary version of the spec and we've found that we can duplicate the functionality of the TEDS Library for LV in roughly 2 weeks in any other language.

How do I email a sheet that is inside a spreadsheet in numbers?

I tried to email a sheet that is inside a spreadsheet containing 10 sheets and all 10 sheets were emailed.

Are you asking about iPhoto on a Mac or iPhoto on an IOS device? On a Mac you will get the error message "You can't email videos from iPhoto", when you try to share a video. YOu can however use the command "File > Reveal in Finder" to show the original video file and then ctrl click the revealed movie file. Select "Share > Mail" from the pop-up menu.

Need help with control system that reduces a flat output signal every time a certain input exceeds given value

I'm having difficulty setting up a closed loop control system that reduces one of my voltage outputs (connected to a high voltage system) by 30% every time a measured voltage exceeds a certain threshold value. I'm using a USB 6229 DAQ. I've been trying to create a waveform that looks like a DC signal, but the only waveforms that I can seem to manipulate while my VI is running are the stock waveform types. Also, I've tried to use a formula node or conditional structure to update the output value every time the measured voltage exceeds a given value, but everything I do reinitializes the output value every time it runs or won't store the previous signal value. I'm using LabVIEW 8.6 and don't have the PID or similar express VI's. I've attached the mess I've got working right now. Can anyone help? I'm really stuck!
Thanks!

HiV step down.vi ‏40 KB
output control.vi ‏100 KB

I'm sorry it's such a mess; I'm still pretty new at this. These are both little driver programs for a larger overall control program.
Output control is meant to send a flat signal to the DAQ whose value can be manipulated while the VI is running. I have the second activated segment merely to check the values being output. I didn't realize I attached a version with a meaningless control...I had a control where the user would put in the stating voltage (the high voltage source has a 1V-100V setting for external control). I've attached this slightly different but equally dysfunctional version. Ideally, I would have liked something like the analog signal generator vi to come with an input wiring for offset on the DC signal. Most of the code was diabled because it is copied from an example; it is largely rubbish. I initially used the DAQ Assistant, but when things weren't working out I switched to putting in each step manually to try to troubleshoot.
As far as HiV step down is concerned, I've tried something different with a nested case structure (if that's the right terminology?), and I've attached that file. I think this problem has been solved, but you never know!
