Customizing OI to add step progress bar
Hello custom RTOI experts! I am attempting to make a customization to the full-featured LabVIEW RTOI (for TestStand 3.0) in order to provide the seemingly simple feature of a step completion progress bar on the execution page of the tab control. Let me explain a little behind the concept I'm going for. There are some steps in my sequences that take a relatively long time (15 minutes or so). During this period, a requirement of mine is to have a progress bar that gets updates every so often such that by the time the step would ordinary complete, the progress bar is at 100%. Initial attempts involved a separate VI that managed the progress bars, but having yet another window is not the ideal UI design... Instead, I was hoping to integrate this functionality into the RTOI so that each time a new step begins executing, additional custom data (the expected step duration) is (optionally) sent to the RTOI providing the progress update portion of the RTOI code the necessary data.
Is there any sample code out there that performs some similar task so that I can get a better feel for how the pieces fit together? In particular, there are a few things that are befuddling me:
1) What is a good way to store this custom information (step duration) in the sequence file? Should I modify the basic step types to add a new duration field which can be optionally set to something greater than the default, 0?
2) How should the step duration get passed to the RTOI? My current thought is to override the PreStep engine callback to send the custom duration field in a custom UIMessage, but that may be partly because I'm not familiar enough with the structure of the data is that is that is accessible via the sequence context...
3) How do I link the progress bar data to the actual execution page that is currently being viewed. Up to 4 executions can be running using the parallel model or the batch model in my sequences, so something would clearly need to be done so that when execution 1 is visible, the associated progress bar is shown, etc... I'm assuming I can trap on some event when the user clicks on an execution in the list bar, but there is no similar code in the out-of-box RTOI - all that appears to be managed automatically by linking the controls to the execution manager.
Thanks for any pointers or code samples (or even suggested reading) that anyone can give.
Thanks for the response.
I may indeed want to use the ProgressPercent message, but I'm not so sure just yet. I did not want to leave the responsibility of sending UIMessages up to the VIs and other code modules called by the sequence - I was hoping for a simple solution to provide a new field (ExpectedDuration) that can be set for any given step. In this way, the RTOI can manage updating the progress simply by counting seconds. Perhaps there is some timer callback that can be leveraged to perform this function?
What I have so far is as follows: I have a new step type called PassFailTestWithDuration. It is a copy of the PassFailTest step type with the addition of a ExpectedDuration property and a new PreStep which calls the PostUIMessageEx with a custom event (10001). The expected duration and the RunState.TestSockets.MyIndex both get passed as parameters. Inside the RTOI, I have added a UserMessage callback VI which stores the data in the appropriate slot of a global (indexed by socket index). (The global array is implemented as what I've heard called an action engine - there are init, read, and write actions that it can perform on data stored in the VI, and it is set as non-reentrant so that race conditions cannot occur). Each entry in the global array has 2 fields - the expected duration, and the current elapsed time. My idea was to continually update the current elapsed time for all active executions and simply show a progress bar for the "active" execution by displaying its elapsed time/expected duration in each necessary event...
I think my main question now is - how do you determine the RunState.TestSocket.MyIndex of the active execution in the execution manager (or application manager)? It seems like such an obvious thing to want to know, but I don't see it anywhere.
Thanks again for any hints you can provide!

Script : How to add a progress bar to XMP Writing script ?
Hi !
I have this script that works flawlessly but when i execute it on big video files ( > 1GB) bridge doesn't repaint and it looks like it's stuck. I would like to have a progress bar showing % remaining on the task and the name of the file being treated. Can someone point me into the right direction as my adobe scripting knowledge is not that great.

Trying to add audio player progress bar
Hi
I'd like to add a progress bar to my flash audio player.
Right now you press a button, a certain sound loads and then plays.
Here's part of the code:
function playSong(e:Event):void{
if (my_channel) {
my_channel.stop();
var myURL = ("mysong.mp3");
my_sound = new Sound();
my_sound.load(new URLRequest(myURL));
my_channel = my_sound.play();
In order to build a progress bar I wanted to find out the length or duration of the sound but I keep getting error messages or 0s in return
trace (my_sound.duration);
tells me that duration is an undefined property
trace (my_sound.length);
trace (my_sound.position);
trace (my_sound.bytesTotal);
trace (my_sound.bytesLoaded);
all give me a 0 in return
Any idea why? Why can't I access the properties of my Sound?
I'd also be very thankful for any other suggestions on how to add a progress bar. I searched a number of websites, but most samples are AS2 code...
Thanks

Hello,
I have built a simple operator interface taking the refernce from pre exsit OI from NI. Now I want to add a progress bar showing the status of the no. of steps completed. looking at the previous examples i got an idea that using the sequence context property I can acesss no of steps in a step group and previous step index to know the current excuting step. Since the simple OI is event driven, How should I implement the logic to display the progress bar.
Regards
PravPrav,
your approach has one serious flaw:
If you use flow control in your sequence in order to skip steps or repeat steps (loop), you will display wrong numbers.
There are two possible ways to solve your question:
- Work with UI Messages and send "ProgressPercent" messages after each step which indicates a new part of your test. See the Full-featured UI status bar as an example how this could be configured in the UI. Still, you have to read how to send UI Messages from your sequence....
- You configure custom UI Messages in order to update a custom control on your UI.
Other solutions are possible, but i don't recommend them.
hope this helps,

I need to add a progress bar to the splash screen of a Director 12 .dcr which is hosted on a website.
The progress bar doesn't have to show the exact time remaining before the main.dcr starts, it just gives the user a rough indication that "loading" is happening.
I was thinking of using an animated .gif for this, making the .gif visible when the user clicks the Start button, but I don't knon how to do this in Director.
Is there a standard way to make a loading-in-progress indicator in Director, for a web hosted .dcr?
Thank you.Is this the kind of thing you are looking for?

Global Variable in Progress Bar
I have an existing labview code that is comprised of a main vi, which is the user GUI, and several (approx 70) sub vi's. I am trying to add a progress bar to the front screen (User GUI) that will immediately increment after it hits certain sections of code. I am doing this using a global variable to store the value of the current progress, and then attempting to write to the progress bar on the main screen after each incrementation. Is there a way to link the value of the main progress bar to the global variable so that it updates as soon as the value is incremented? The problem I am facing is that when I update the global variable in a subvi, the progress bar takes the value of the subvi after it is completed, skipping all the numbers in between. I realize this is because I am not correctly writing to the progress bar, but I am unsure how to do so. If this isn't a good method, does anyone have any suggestions?
For Example:
Main Vi SubVi1 SubVi2
(1-4) (5-8) (8-12)
Progress Bar: 1 2 3 4 8 12
(I did try the Progress Bar Library NI provides, but I need a progress bar on the Front Panel, not a pop up, so I can debug while the code runs)
Thanks- Adam
Solved!
Go to Solution.I'd go with a Action Engine to update the progress bar VIA vi server referance. Here's an example using a AE I have for just this type of progress bar.
If you haven't read Ben action engine nugget, it should be required, you can find it here
By constructing a "resource module" (a special AE that holds a referance to the resource to act on) after initializint the AE you can call any "method" on the resorce from any location in the application instance. These babys really let you do some interesting things to the GUI from wherever the real actions is taking place.

Draggable Progress Bar for swf - as2
Hi there,
I need to add a progress bar/playback controls for a presentation built in AS 2.0 which has such length voice over in it we've decided we need to give the user the ability to see where they are in the timeline and scrub through sections of the presentation. I'm familiar with stop and pause button code in situations like this, but it's the first time I've needed this kind of functionality. Presently, the first part of my project is set up with several scenes and is completely linear. The second section is interactive with swfs loaded into empty movieclips.
I've found a number of references to progress bars online, but they're all for loading content, not for navigating once content is downloaded.
Thanks so much in advance,
Susandetermine the two extremes of your progress bar, say xLow and xHigh, though you could use a vertical scrollbar, too and use y values. you can then use:
var tl:MovieClip=this;
parameterF(yourdragbar_mc,xLow,1,xHigh,tl._totalframes);
yourdragbar_mc.onPress=function(){
this.startDrag(false,xLow,this._y,xHight,this._y);
this.onEnterFrame=scrollF;
yourdragbar_mc.onRelease=function(){
this.stopDrag();
delete this.onEnterFrame;
function scrollF():Void{
tl.gotoAndStop(Math.round(this.m*this._x+this.b));
function parameterF(mc:MovieClip,x1:Number,y1:Number,x2:Number,y2:Number):Void{
mc.m = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2);
mc.b=y1-mc.m*x1;
