Detect if time/date browse button was used

Hi,
I have a position control vi for indexing elements inside array and displaying corresponding time and date. I have large number of control signals inside my block, but I have removed all irrelevant blocks and signal for this discussion. I have replaced all unnecessary controls with constant values, so don't waste time analyzing it.   
If you take a look at my vi, you will see Star/Stop control, Position control and a time stamp indicator (Waveform time) with a time/date browse button from another time stamp control. I have all desired functionalities, but I have problem when using browse button for setting up time. I can't set my time two times in a row at same value because I'm comparing "Last entered time stamp" value with current one just entered. I would not like to completely change my blocks because I'm using a lot of property nodes and variables inside my project. I'm just looking for a way to figure out if time/date browse button has been pressed so I could jump to desired point in my recorded waveform.

I can't change Waveform Time Indicator to a Control because that would make other controls much complex (not shown in attached vi)
I have modified my block to the simplest form. I have changed some control names.
There is now only one problem - how can I detect if user has pressed time/date browse button? I'm not interested at this point which value has been entered.
I need to replace User has entered value in  Jump to time/date with some kind of Boolean logic or event case.

  • Change language of time/date browse button

    Hi. How I can change the language of time/date browse button. For example,
    i want to change the caption of button "Set time to Now", to the "Time"? Is it possible?
    Thanx.

    The dialog is a VI that is part of the LabVIEW package.
    You can make a copy of this VI and edit the button text as you want.
    look for picktime.vi in your \resource\dialog\ subdirectory of your LabVIEW installation.
    Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T
    If you don't hate time zones, you're not a real programmer.

  • How can I open the 'time date browse button'?

    Hello!
    How can I open the 'time date browse dialog' from the time stamp control in my block diagram? I tryed it with the property node but couldn't find this item to open the 'time/date browse dialog'!
    Thanks in advance for your help

    There is no way to programitically bring up the dialog window for the timestamp control. I recommend building your own dialog window VI that will work by opening when you want the user to set the time and when it closes, it can programatically update the timestamp control. It will not be as pretty but it will be just as functional.

  • Root Loop, Time/Date Browse and DAQmx Watchdog

    I've just run into the issue where the time/date browse calendar control blocks execution of my system.  See here for discussion about this problem.
    I've got a data aquisition loop running that uses the DAQmx watchdog, and opening that browse window is causing my watchdog to starve, thus causing my application to shut down.  Curiously, when I open drop down menus, as Jack illustrates in the aforementioned thread, I do not see the same behavior.  It's not really clear to me what is causing it to block, but the dropdowns don't.
    I'm wondering if anyone has any further explanations, or suggestions for workarounds.

    One solution I did in the past to solve this was to create my own Data/Time dialog in LabVIEW and hide the native button and add a normal button to the front panel which invoked this dialog. Since that makes the dialog a normal VI the root loop problem is not present with that. There is a VI in resource/dialog/picktime.vi that looks like the dialog used in the date/time picker but it isn't since making changes to this VI won't appear in the native dialog. LabVIEW seems to use an internal C implemented dialog which is the root cause of the root loop being blocked since the dialog message handler is running in the same thread as the root loop.
    Creating a copy of this VI in your own project and adding it through your own custom time browse button should solve the problem.

    Try resetting Photoshop Preferences.   Use your Photoshop start icon to launch Photoshop and immediately press and hole Shift+Ctrl|CMD+Alt|Option keys   Photoshop should Prompt you with Do you want your Preferences deleted. Reply yes.   Photoshop should then delete your user ID preferences and then create a default set of preferences for your ID and start successfully.

  • Error when trying to enter time data for hourly employees using CAT2

    Hi Experts!
    I'm trying to enter time data for an absence type using CAT2 for hourly employees and it's giving me an error saying "for attendance type, function or/and one of the URA is required".
    I'm not sure what that means, the system has no functions available. Entering time data for full-time salaried employees is working just fine.
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    hI,
    Firstly check infotype 0315
    In that check sender cost centre
    Next chek whether the Attendent / Absende Tyep which you are trying to enter is configured
    That meas it should pop up (F4) when u try to enter using CAT2
    in the Attnendence /Abence field

  • How do I insure that Firefox is my full-time browser -- I was using Internet Explorer prior to downloading Firefox. Shud I delete Internet Explorer?

    I want to only use Firefox as my full-time browser. I do not want to use Internet Explorer because it doesn't work on a web site I want to use, but Firefox does work. All I want to know is how do I insure that Firefox will be my full-time browser?

    Please do the following:<br><br>
    #Start Internet Explorer.<br><br>
    #Click Tools | Internet Options and then click the Programs tab.<br><br>
    #Remove the checkmark from: "''Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser''.<br><br>
    #Click Apply/OK and then close Internet Explorer.<br><br>
    #Start Firefox, click the orange Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced.<br><br>
    #In the General tab, menu at the bottom, checkmark "'''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup'''" and then click the "''Check Now''" button.<br><br>
    #Click OK.
    That's all there is to it.

  • SCCM report on last time each Office application was used

    I have set up the correct SCCM software metering rules for each of the Office suite executables like Outlook.exe, MsWord.exe etc. I would like to report on usage of each executable in the Office suite. This is useful for us because we can work out things
    like if a user only uses Outlook and nothing else in the Office suite then we can move them to Outlook Web Access and uninstall Office, therefore reducing the number of Office licenses required.
    I'm sure the data is there but not sure how to extract it. For all the machines in the environment, I would like to have a report showing something like this:
    Name Last date Outlook.exe used Last date Excel.exe used
    PC001 01/01/2011 15/03/2011
    PC002 02/02/2011 Never run
    PC002 Never run Never run
    There doesn't seem to be an existing report that I could use / modify, just wondering if anyone has attempted this before?

    I wonder, what is the use of this report. I think, you can try to create a custom report with the help of two links given below?

  • Data Browse Event

    Hi, I want to react when the user clicks on the data browse buttons in the menu.
    how can i do that?

    Hi Philipp
    You will have to catch these events in the The SBO MenuEvent Handler..
    Use the following code:
    if pval.menuUid="1288" 'Next Record Click
    if pval.menuUid="1289" ' Previous Record Click
    if pval.menuUid="1290" 'First Record Click
    if pval.menuUid="1291" 'Last Record Click
    For Add,Find etc you should go thru the help to find the MenuUid for the other buttons.. But for databrowser these are the MenuUid's
    Hope this helps..

  • How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?

    Hello guys,
    Very embarassing question, because I've had Apple's for all of my life (starting with the original Apple Macintosh) but I still haven't figured out one thing
    How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?
    When I go to System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats I can set different formats. I have no idea where you will see these, but I know that it's not the top bar where the time and date is being displayed. Because no matter what I enter, the format in the top bar will stay the same. I can only choose things like 24-Hour clock or not, blinking dots and so on in the Time & Date settings from the System Preferences.
    Can anyone here point me in the right direction? I see you can even choose to display the week of the year - I'd love to do that!
    All help appreciated!
    Greetings

    Language & Text system preferences, Formats tab, customize dates.
    There are also many third party menu item utilities that can.  Search Macupdate.com for some.
    One search yielded iClock Pro.  Although I never used it I would think it allows customization.  The link I gave you is to the Macupdate download page for that app.  On that same page is a Similar Software section which has other apps that can do the same thing. 
    One listed is iStat Menus.  The primary use for iStat Menus is not for displaying date/time but it does do that.  And I know it can do what you want because I use iStat Menus to track temperature sensors n my machine and, like you, I want to customize the menu time/date.  So I use it instead of the apple clock.  It does have the customization features I think you are looking for.

  • I'm waiting for my new iPhone 5s to be delivered. I lost my iPhone 5 but did have it backed up on my MacBook Pro. I was using iOS6 at the time. Will I have a problem restoring the data to my new iPhone 5s assuming it will come with iOS7?

    No, you should not.  There are problems trying to go the other way, but updating a newer iOS release from a backup of an older iOS release has always been supported and is the basic means of setting up a new device from a previous one.

  • The back and forward browser buttons are NOT ALWAYS available to use, so once I open a web-site I can not go back to what I was looking at previously. This has only started happening recently?

    The back and forward browser button always works when we first get online, and then over some time it will not work and then will work again (working again is happening less). I have re-started the computer many times to fix the issue.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
