Create a picture for a Button without using a custom control

So I enherited the system I am currently developing. One thing the guy did before me was put pictures on all of his buttons. I have no clue how he did this as I just starting using Labview several months ago. Now I want to add my own buttons and want to replicate how he did it.
All the solutions I have search for use custom controls to attain their desired effect....well apparantly the guy did it a different way and I can't figure out how. I posted a VI with just the buttons he made in it so you can see what I am talking about.

So how do you create a custom control without the need to make a ctrl file then?
Becasue you can make the custom button and apply it and never save it. If you right click on the button you should be able to got to the advanced and then to customize and still be able to edit the buttons that are on your code.
You will have to make new pictures to import to your custom display. The only other way to do this would be to make your button transparent and add a picture behind it.

  • Creating a macro for export to excel using a custom map

    Hi all
    I've created a custom map to export a custom table to excel, which works. Then tried to create a macro to do this export for me and it was stopped on the 'File; Save As' part of the export (almost the very beginning)
    Looking for suggestions for best practises or anything to watch out for when creating a macro to export (or any help in general in this area...books, etc)
    Using MSP 2010 (Pro)...we have server but I was attempting this as a stand-alone project
    Thanks in advance for your response

    Firstly make sure you have SP2 installed. Then try recording a macro of you manually saving to Excel with a pre-saved map. Compare the recorded code and your code.

  • How to run MRP for Bulk Material without using LTP

    Hi, how can I run MRP for BULK material without using LTP.
    Thanks in advance
    BK

    Hi,
    Use trasnsaction code OPPQ and goto BOM Explosion and selection depends on
    Field selected
    No dependent requirements are created for informational purposes for bulk material items in the plant selected. This can improve system performance.
    Field not selected
    Dependent requirements are created for bulk material items in the plant selected. These dependent requirements are displayed in the planned order for informational purposes only. They are not considered in the net requirements calculation; that is, they are not included in material requirements planning (MRP) and are not displayed in the stock/requirements list

  • How to create authorisation object for save button please help in abap

    how to create authorisation object for save button please help in abap

    Hi
    In general different users will be given different authorizations based on their role in the orgn.
    We create ROLES and assign the Authorization and TCODES for that role, so only that user can have access to those T Codes.
    USe SUIM and SU21 T codes for this.
    Much of the data in an R/3 system has to be protected so that unauthorized users cannot access it. Therefore the appropriate authorization is required before a user can carry out certain actions in the system. When you log on to the R/3 system, the system checks in the user master record to see which transactions you are authorized to use. An authorization check is implemented for every sensitive transaction.
    If you wish to protect a transaction that you have programmed yourself, then you must implement an authorization check.
    This means you have to allocate an authorization object in the definition of the transaction.
    For example:
    program an AUTHORITY-CHECK.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT <authorization object>
    ID <authority field 1> FIELD <field value 1>.
    ID <authority field 2> FIELD <field value 2>.
    ID <authority-field n> FIELD <field value n>.
    The OBJECT parameter specifies the authorization object.
    The ID parameter specifies an authorization field (in the authorization object).
    The FIELD parameter specifies a value for the authorization field.
    The authorization object and its fields have to be suitable for the transaction. In most cases you will be able to use the existing authorization objects to protect your data. But new developments may require that you define new authorization objects and fields.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/52/67167f439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/content.htm
    To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
    Authorization : An authorization enables you to perform a particular activity in the SAP System, based on a set of authorization object field values.
    You program the authorization check using the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TRVL_BKS'
    ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02'
    ID 'CUSTTYPE' FIELD 'B'.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    MESSAGE E...
    ENDIF.
    'S_TRVL_BKS' is a auth. object
    ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02' in place 2 you can put 1,2, 3 for change create or display.
    The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.
    This Authorization concept is somewhat linked with BASIS people.
    As a developer you may not have access to access to SU21 Transaction where you have to define, authorizations, Objects and for nthat object you assign fields and values. Another Tcode is PFCG where you can assign these authrization objects and TCodes for a  profile and that profile in turn attached to a particular user.
    Take the help of the basis Guy and create and use.
    Regards

  • Can we create Interactive forms only with ABAP & without using GP,  or Java

    Hi,
    I would like to know if we can create Interactive forms only with ABAP & without using GP or Java. We want to develop an offline solution using Interactive forms, but would like to use only ABAP for creating the forms. All the documents so far either refer to creating the forms, in reference to / in sync with: ISR (Service Requests), GP (General Procedures) or Java. Can this be done with ABAP alone?
    Regards,
    Ramesh
    Edited by: Ramesh Nallabelli on Apr 16, 2008 12:02 AM

    Hello Ramesh,
    You should be able to create Adobe Interactive Forms using only the ABAP stack (without GP, Java, etc). Please refer to the thread below. Hope it helps.

    Hey Don,
    This is a pretty straight forward process, in settings on your phone go to general>network>personal hotspot. As SP has said most likely you will have to contact your wireless provider to set it up. I know for at&t you can set up this option through att.com/wireless or dial 611. It will cost you around 45 dollars per month and this gets you the ability to tether up to 4 wireless devices and alots you 4GB per month data. Hope this helps.

    I've heard that it will also cancel your current contract.  That isn't such a huge deal unless your current contract is an unlimited one--you can never get it back.
    Does anyone know for sure?  I've asked AT&T and received a "Yes it will cancel your current contract." and "No, it is a new contract--you keep your old contract if you wish."  I suspect it is the former but it would be good to know for sure before ordering the service.

    Download the apps on your syncing computer and then sync to the iPod. Note that you can only sync apps for the one syncing computer you use with the iPod. You can manage music and videos among different computer.

  • Trial for Photoshop CS6 without using CC.

    Is there a trial for Photoshop CS6 without using CC? If so where can I get it.

    Joe probably means without installing the giant batch of programs that go into one's system when one installs the Adobe Creative Cloud application, which is the stepping stone to getting all current product offerings from Adobe.
    It may still be possible to download the Photoshop CS6 package directly by carefully following the instructions here:

  • How to use the custom control ?

    HI,
    Screen Elements
    A screen can contain a wide variety of elements, either for displaying field contents, or for allowing the user to interact with the program (for example, filling out input fields or choosing pushbutton functions). You use the Screen Painter to arrange elements on the screen.
    You can use the following elements:
    ·        Text fields
    Display elements, which cannot be changed either by the user or by the ABAP program.
    ·        Input/output fields and templates
    Used to display data from the ABAP program or for entering data on the screen. Linked to screen fields.
    ·        Dropdown list boxes
    Special input/output fields that allow users to choose one entry from a fixed list of possible entries.
    ·        Checkbox elements
    Special input/output fields that the user can either select (value ‘X’) or deselect (value SPACE). Checkbox elements can be linked with function codes.
    ·        Radio button elements
    Special input/output fields that are combined into groups. Within a radio button group, only a single button can be selected at any one time. When the user selects one button, all of the others are automatically deselected. Radio button elements can be linked with function codes.
    ·        Pushbuttons
    Elements on the screen that trigger the PAI event of the screen flow logic when chosen by the user. There is a function code attached to each pushbutton, which is passed to the ABAP program when it is chosen.
    ·        Frame
    Pure display elements that group together elements on the screen, such as radio button groups.
    ·        Subscreens
    Area on the screen in which you can place another screen.
    ·        Table controls
    Tabular input/output fields.
    ·        Tabstrip controls
    Areas on the screen in which you can switch between various pages.
    ·        Custom Controls
    Areas on the screen in which you can display controls. Controls are software components of the presentation server.
    ·        Status icons
    Display elements, indicating the status of the application program.
    ·        OK field
    Every screen has a twenty-character OK_CODE field (also known as the function code field) that is not displayed directly on the screen. User actions that trigger the PAI event also place the corresponding function code into this field, from where it is passed to the ABAP program. You can also use the command field in the standard toolbar to enter the OK field. To be able to use the OK field, you need to assign a name to it.
    All screen elements have a set of attributes, some of which are set automatically, others of which have to be specified in the Screen Painter. They determine things such as the layout of the screen elements on the screen. You can set the attributes of screen elements in the Screen Painter - either for a single element, or using the element list, which lists all of the elements belonging to the current screen. Some of the attributes that you set statically in the Screen Painter can be overwritten dynamically in the ABAP program.
