Display "global" text caption for a certain length of time

I hope I can explain what I'm trying to do...
I have a text caption that I want to conditionally display for a fixed length of time at the start of most of slides in my project.
The caption is placed on an introductory slide in the project, in a hidden state.
Then I have created a Conditional Action to Show the caption. This Advanced Action is then called On Enter for the slides where I want to display the caption. However, I need to be able to hide the caption again after a couple of seconds.
So essentially I want the following logic:
On slide entry, if displaying caption, then Show Caption, Wait 2 seconds, Hide Caption.
But I can't see how to do this using a single text caption that is available project-wide.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Is there any way to display filenames or captions for photos?

is there any way to display filenames or captions for photos?

Thanks. There are so many it's very hard to see which one does what. Since I edit on the MacBook Pro using Photoshop Elements, all I really need is a way of seeing the filenames, and secondarily re-arranging thumbnails on the iPad screen manually.

I have selected a specific text tone for a certain contact but I only receive default tone when they text me. Why?

I have selected a specific text tone for a certain contact but get the default tone when they text me. What am I doing wrong?

Interestingly the selected text tone plays when texted by another iPhone.

Video content freezes for a certain amount of time on Lion

After upgrading to Lion, I have noticed that video content freezes (though the voice is heard, but the picture is frozen for some seconds) for a certain amount of
time when its starts playing (eg youtube videos) on Lion.
I have observed this on my friends macbook pro also.
I have a macbook (mid 2010 model)

Continuous averaging for a certain amount of time

Hi
In my program I have to use a start button to continuously average a value for a certain amount of time(lets say 3s) and keep and show the average the value. The state of the start button should return to off mode after that 3 sec so if the user hit the start button again it reset the array and calculate the average again.
Would you please help me with this program. I have attached pic of what I ahev done
With this vi I can take data after hitting start for 3 sec but I have these problems:
1- I don't know how to calculate average value when finish getting data after 3 sec
2- I would like the start button back to off mode after 3 sec so if I click on the start button again it reset the array and calculate the average again.
Would u plz help me with this vi?

Use mean function to average an array. And wire your time has elapsed boolean to a case structure and reinitialise your boolean control to default in the true case.
Create invoke node as below, just in case you dont know.

How to write data to the DAQ for a specified length of time while still reading the input data?

Hello,
I'm using labview 2012 and am trying to turn on a signal for a specified length of time in labview at the press of a button. The signal goes into an AO (PXI 6723) through my system, where the voltage gets divided by 2, the read in through the AI (PXI 6225). I want to write and read voltage constantly and then have a spike of voltage after pressing a button in LabView while still reading the voltage value for the specified amount of time.
Parameters:
constant voltage of 1 volt to Analog output (reading and writing) seen through a waveform chart.
for 1 second, turn on 3 volts and see the response on the waveform chart.
My specified delay time does not match the elapsed time. I am having difficulties doing this. I have attached the VI.
( I can't upload a functional VI since it shows "the contents of the attachment doesn't match its file type") How can I attach the VI?.
Thanks!

Mike,
Thank you for your reply! I greatly appreciate it. I currently don't have any DAQmx timing in my application. I tried using it and, without really understanding how it works nor how to manipulate it, the whole test end up taking a long time to change the values i.e. too slow.
The DAQmx timing I used was the sample clock since it was for analog signals, but I don't really understand the buffer, what that means nor how to use it. inputting a rate time for it also made my test slower. The rate time is the samples per channel per second, but I'm not sure how to determine a number so that I am collecting the data I need and take into account aliasing.
I know the PXI 6225 has the capability to read 250kS/s (which I am assuming it's kilosamples per second or 250,000 samples per second). I am using 32 differential channels. I have read that I have to divide the maximum sample rate by the number of channels, (250kS/s / channels) but I don't know if I should count the number of total channels (64) or differential channels(32). In other words, is the per-channel maximum rate:
250,000/32 = 7,812.5 samples per channel per second, or
250,000/64 =3,906.25 samples per channel per second
Furthermore, If I know the number of samples per channel per second, how can I implement that knowledge to the DAQmx sample clock so that my sampling is as fast and as accurate as it can be?
I attached an image of my DAQmx functions in my code, I merged all the stacked sequence structures in paint so you can see them.
thanks for your help!
Eduardo

Do i have to charge my replacement macbook pro batter for a certain amount of time before using the computer?

do i have to charge my replacement macbook pro batter for a certain amount of time before using the computer?

First, if you have a Late 2008 or older MacBook Pro, you should calibrate the battery, as the battery for these MacBooks don't come precalibrated > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Then, the battery should come charged, so use it until the battery percentage is low, and then, charge it. You can use your Mac while your battery is being charged, and your MacBook will stop charging the battery when your battery is full, so you can unplug it at any moment

Waterfox is displaying in text form for some websites - how do i rectify this?

I want to snooze an event for a different length of time than the default. How do I select a different snooze length?

I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and I can't see how to snooze an event alert for other than the preset 15 minutes. How do I snooze events and other alerts for different lengths of time than the default? Sometimes I want to snooze an event until the start time or maybe for a whole day.

SnoozeMaster is now avaiable from the Mac App Store, for MacOS X 10.8 and up.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snoozemaster/id614955483?mt=12
It addresses this exact issue. You'll be able to configure different pre-set snooze times, enter custom snooze times when an alarm triggers, etc. It's what snoozing should've been from the get go.

Is there any way to set Firefox to remember history for a certain amount of time rather than all or nothing?

In previous versions, there was a choice to remember browsing history for a certain number of days, but in the current version the only choices seem to be to remember history or not remember history, with no way to customize in between. I don't want to have to clear my history and cache manually all the time, but I don't want it cleared every time I close my browser, either. Has the customization feature been removed entirely or am I missing something? And if it's been removed entirely, could it please be brought back? It's helpful for people who want their older browsing history to be deleted without deleting the entire history.

Displaying long text maintained for selected set codes in result recording

Hi Gurus,
I have maintained qualitative mic.For this mic i have defined selected set codes & for these selected set codes i have maintained long text.
My client requirement is that this long text should be visible while doing result recording for the mic.Is this possible.
Regards
Amit

How can they expect that? Long text can be... well.. long....... How can you include that on the same screen as results recording. What if you have 5 charac with long text? What if each selected set choice has long text and you had two choices for each? That's ten sections of long text on one screen? Impossible.
Printing the long text on the cert shouldn't be a problem. You just have to get someone to code it into the layout set.

How do i save a graph for a specific length of time

Dear All,
I am using a magnetic field sensor on a mine detector. Lets say the minedetector sweeps the sector for 10 secs. i want your help on the following
1) how do i save the waveform chart for the whole ten sec. All i know is that i came across an example where i can save the chart at a specific point as a jpg. But that example is also for a graph. for the chart i suppose we need to change the array in some way.
2) If i save the value of magnetic field obtained at every sample in an array, can i save it as an excel file. how do i do that.
Best regards
Regards

Using LabVIEW 8.2
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Whenever I'm asked to reproduce chart data, I use Excel. In other words, your #2. The charts are graphical items floating along on the screen. Once they are gone, they are gone. You could save the chart to jpg everytime the chart gets full, then string it together later, but why? The data are the data, not the chart.
The easiest way to save an array for Excel is to simply write the data to a text file, and have LabVIEW save the file as a *.csv file. This file can then be directly opened in Excel, and then plotted.
The other method would be to have LabVIEW save directly to an Excel worksheet. There are lots of examples of that on the forum.

Does anyone know of an IPhone app to lock myself out of my phone for a certain period of time?

Does anyone know of an app I can use so that I can lock myself out of my phone for a specified time interval? There are times where my phone becomes a distraction and it would be easier to just lock myself out of it for 45 mins than to go to the trouble of putting it somewhere were I won't notice it and it will be too far away from me to just pick it up and start searching social media sites as procrastination.

It's called "SelfControl". It can be a little hard to learn to use but it's worth the effort.

How to only show data for a certain period of time for cumulative data?

I need to show cumulative data for the past 12 months on a chart (e.g. # of accounts). But in order to get the cumulative data for Month 1, I need to cum the data starting from the very first month when we started to add new account which can be Jan 2006. If I put a filter to limit the data to only last 12 months, then my Month 1's cum data will not include any account prior to Month 1. So how do I do this?
Edited by: user637947 on Feb 5, 2009 2:02 PM

Hi,
Try this Filter....
Opportunity."Close Date" >= TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -11, TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -(DAY(CURRENT_DATE) - 1), CURRENT_DATE)) AND Opportunity."Close Date" <= TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, 1, TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, -(DAY(CURRENT_DATE) + 0), CURRENT_DATE))
Thanks and Regards,

How to play movie clips for a certain amount of time only

Hello everyone, I think I have a relatively basic question here but I can't figure it out. I have a movie clip loaded using action script 3 at the start of my animation, I want ito to end at the 120th frame. But I can't use the stop(); command because it will also stop the rest of my animations from the 121st frame onwards. So my problem is, how can I stop the movie clip without stopping the rest of my animations?
Thank you in advance!

I don't think I have codes that load the swf, but I've sent you the code that I would like to stop. Thanks!
