Edit Palette Set disabled?

recently lost my hard drive so just reinstalled LabVIEW 8.6.1f1 and 9.0f3
now (and this is in both 8.6 and 2009) when I right click the Function palette and Control palette open on the Express; for years I have been opening to Functions to Programming and Control to Modern. But I cannot change it - going to Advanced > Edit Palette Set opens the dialog, shows Current Palette Set is Local Host, but the 2 palette sets are un-editable and the View button is greyed out. is there some priveledge that I need to set? Seems I've done this before (way back when) what's changed?
thanx

lmd2,
I think what you may be wanting to do you'll find by first pinning a palette
Then select view to either change the standard view or visible categories.
Hope this is what you were looking for.

Palette view not showing the contents of palette set

Hi!
I am new in the community, so "Hi everybody!" and thanks for your help
My problem: I have a scientific camera that has its own drivers and VI's for Labview. I have installed the camera properly, and I have already created a folder and copied the .llb archives on it.
When I open any of the examples to start working with it, I can see in the palette view, in the user controls, my folder. But inside the folder there is nothing. I can not find the llb's or VI's that I expected.
I have tried to go to Advanced/Edit Palette Set, but I don't know what to do, because I can find there all the .llb and VI's. so it seems that everything is correct. But it is not, because I can't see any of them in the normal palette view.
Can sby tell me what am I mising? There should be sth that I haven't done correctly, but I don't know what.
Thanks!

Hey, welcome to the forums
The sets of Vis and llbs for your camera are known as an Instrument Driver. You have to extract these to a specific location so that LabVIEW can update the pallet sets using .mnu files included in the driver files.
The location is C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2014\instr.lib\
Try moving your files there and then restarting LabVIEW.
This Knowledge Base article may also be useful for you:

The following white paper discusses how to modify, build and install .mnu files to add/modify the current palette set.

Add llb to palette set

I am trying to add the llb C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\Utility\Queue.llb to my palette set because I really like using the simple Queue vi's for queued state machines.
Going in and editing the palette set has proven to be not as simple as one would imagine.
Going to tools-> Advanced-> Edit Palette Set
Then select user libraries (or any sub palette catagory off the main) and insert sub palette
The box pops up and I select Link to an LLB (.llb)
I navigate to C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\Utility\ and select queue.llb
All that shows up in the palette is a generic sub palette icon that says "vi's" and it is empty
Saving it then produces an empty "?" sub palette.
How can I add this to my palette set?
I also have tried adding the llb to my favorites and the same thing happens, I get nothing...

Hi RTSLVU,
I'm not sure I understand the difficulty you are having. When I go through the following steps, I am able to successfully add the Queue.llb to a palette of my choice.
1. Go to Tools » Advanced » Edit Palette Set
2. Select a Palette you want to modify, or Right Click in the grey space on the functions palette window, and select 'Insert Subpalette'
2b. If you selected 'Insert Subpalette', you have the option of creating a new palette file (which is the option I tested)
3. In the palette that you want to customize (the one that you want to add the Queue functions to, Right Click in the grey space, and select 'Link to an LLB (.llb)'
4. Browse to and select the queue.llb (it's the path that you specified in your post)
5. You should now have the Queue functions added as a subpalette to whatever palette you wanted to customize

How to add packed library on palette set

Hi,
I am unable to add packed library to pallete set. Can someone provide information on how to do that?
Thanks,
Andrej
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Andrej,
starting with LV 2010, you can use packed libraries to encapsulate functions and supply them on the palettes. The way to get there is somehow a little tricky, so here a short description on how to do that:
1. Build your LV library (lvlib) as used, please remember to set prudent item settings (private vs. public). Public items will be "exported" in the packed library whereas private are not.
2. Open the palette edit tool via Tools >> Advanced >> Edit Palette Set
3. Go to the subpalette you want to include your custom palette (exported items) and right click on the parent palette. Select Insert >> Subpalette.
4. In the dialog, select Create a new palette file (.mnu). Select a path contained in your lvlib.
5. Customize your subpalette as desired. Please place only public items on the palette.
6. Save the changes and add the new .mnu file to your lvlib.
7. Build the packed library. Make sure, that the .mnu file is part of the lvlibp (by default it is already selected).
8. Copy the lvlibp to the target system.
9. Select Tools >> Advanced >> Edit Palette Set in the target. Browse to the palette you want to have as parent for your lvlibp.
10. Right click and select Insert >> Subpalette. On the dialog, select Link to a palette file in a project library. Select your lvlibp file and acknowledge the following dialog.
11. Save changes and use your lvlibp on the target.
That should be a comprehensive step-by-step list for this request.
Hope this helps,
Norbert

ACROBAT XI Pro -EDIT TOOL SET - POP-UP WINDOW IS TOO LARGE

Good Day -
I've been experiencing very nagging problem since installing recent Acrobat Xi Pro uodate (on windows 7 system):
Specifically - I cannot edit/change the TOOL SET to include needed TOOLS (i.e., that were all previously in my Tool set) as the EDIT TOOL SET WINDOW (i.e., pop-up
window) is TOO LARGE and does not allow scrolling/ or moving down to SAVE any tool sets and or tool set changes. Very frustrating as all attempts (and recommendations from reviews/support) for decreasing the size of EDIT TOOL SET WINDOW (popup) in order to save (i.e. include ANY) tools have been unsuccessful. So for past week I've been unable to include/use any TOOLS for working in (i.e., editing/commenting etc) pdf's. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Would greatly appreciate any / all steps & recommendations for fixing.
Thank-you!

First, make sure you are on the latest update 11.0.09. Help->check for updates should get you there.
If check for updates says that you have the latest, see if the setting: Edit->Settings->General->Basic Tools->Scale for screen resolution and try various options (you'll have to restart Acrobat with each selection)

Parameter field still editable after setting flag 'PropFlags_NotEditable'?

Hi,
Parameter field still editable after setting flag ‘PropFlags_NotEditable’?
I have defined a step type with a string parameter. (MyParameter). This parameter field has to contain custom generated data, stuffed from a code module.
I want to have ‘MyParameter’ read only for all instances of the step in my sequence.
I have set the property flag ‘PropFlags_NotEditable’ for ‘MyParameter’ in my step type definition, because I want to have this parameter read only in all instances.
When I try to edit ‘MyParameter’ field in an instance of the step in the sequence in the variable pane ‘Step’ - ‘MyParameter’, it still works?
What is wrong here, I suppose this should work?
Best regards

1) Make sure you have show hidden properties turned on in the station options, preferences tab.
2) In your step type expand the variables to the place where the expression is stored for the parameter argument. In the .NET adapter this would be something like the following:TS.SData.Call.Params[0].ArgVal. Right-click on ArgVal and select the Properties menu item.
3) Click on the advanced button and select flags.
4) When the edit flags dialog pops up, click on the Type Flags button.
5) Check the PropFlags_NotEditable flag for the Instance Default Flags section. Click OK on this dialog.
6) If you want the change to effect currently open instances I think checking the "Reset Flags... " checkbox on the edit flags dialog will do this, otherwise this change will only effect new instances of your step type. Press ok on the remaining dialogs.
7) New instances will now not allow editing that value. NOTE: This only works for the sequence editor module panel though. It does not work for the dialog version used by the user-interfaces.
One thing I want to make sure you are aware of for step types is that using a default code module like this has drawbacks versus using postsubsteps. Setting the default code module doesn't keep the user from changing the specification after they insert the step, also updating existing steps if you want to change the prototype is more problematic. You might be better off with a design more like the step types that ship with teststand like the message popup step type (which also ship with source code so you can see how they are implemented) which instead use post-substeps and edit-substeps and instead designate the none adapter for the step type so that the step type can never have a code module. What they do instead is their edit substeps display a dialog that gets the settings/parameters to the operation that the step type performs and stores those as subproperties of the step. Then at runtime the post-substep gets this information and executes the necessary code. Unlike the default code module setting, changing the substeps in a step type automatically effects all existing instances of the step. Changing the code module only effects new instances, and loaded instances if you check the checkbox for that.
Hope this helps,
-Doug

Fireworks image editing palette not responding

Image editing palette does not respond. I need to go to the filters menu at the top of the page to sharpen etc. I notice that this is a flash-driven panel.
Adobe need to work on it anyway because it is absolutely infuriating that the adjustment dialogs pop up right in the centre of the screen (usually where most people want to see their changes previewed).
Anyhow, the dialog is an annoyance, but the palette not working is a fault/bug worthy of immediate attention unless anyone knows a fix.
I am using Fireworks 11.1.0.205

Hi Neil,
I had the same issue as you; the 'Image Editing' panel was not responding. I figured out that the problem was with Flash. I quitted Fireworks, downloaded the newest version of Adobe Flash Player, installed it, then restarted Fireworks. All of a sudden the 'Image Editing' panel was responding and working again. Problem solved...
I'm glad I found a solution. I really like Fireworks because it improves my workflow for webdesign and fastens development time after the design is finished BUT I'm really not happy with the huge amount of bugs this piece of software has...

Installing hp deskjet f4235 error: "registry editing has been disabled by administrator"

I have been trying to install by HP Deskjet F4235 printer and I keep getting this error message: "registry editing has been disabled by administrator". How do I get around this?

Hi,
I think I confused Computer Configuration with User Configuration in XP, so yes, this policy does exist in Windows XP, sorry for my negligence.
And I am still confused with the silent switch you mentioned, do you mean the
/s in the following command
REG QUERY "HKLM\System\NBC\Software\CurrentConfig" /s | find /v "REG.EXE" | findstr .
It doesn’t mean a silent switch but specifies to query subkeys
/s
-------Specifies to query all subkeys and value names recursively.
You can find detailed information in this link:
Reg query
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc742028.aspx
To silently run the .reg file (with the /s switch) from a login script batch file, use the following syntax:
regedit.exe /s path of .reg file
so I suggest you re-edit the bat file use the above syntax for a test.

Set Disable or Expiry Date for web app item via Edit form

I have a user that wants to delete a web app item from a secure zone edit form, but they are not the owner of that web app item. All items in the web app were imported via a csv file and hence do not have a 'submitted by' user id assigned.
Is it possible to Disable a web app item using a web app Edit form? or alternatively, is it possible to set the Expiry Date of a web app item using a web app Edit form?
Thanks
Dave

Sorry Brian, but I'm not sure that answers my question.
Sure, I can create a single web app item for every single client of my customer, manually.
Sure, I can create and 'allocate' that single web app item to each customer manually.
I pray the customer doesn't have hundreds of clients. And I would have to teach my customer how to do this convoluted process for every new client.
But the one thing this doesn't do is answer the question of updating the value of units held.
It seems the order module remains the closes to what I am looking for in that it allows an equation, and is automatically customer specific.
However, I am looking for a way to achieve a single daily update by the customer as to the value of the units held by each client. This can be done via the product module - update price. But this does not update existing orders. Exisitng orders are fixed at the price on the day. The customer wants to update the value once, in one place, and have that amend all existing 'orders' to reflect the new total value of units held by each individual client, and to have this show in each client's member area.
If you can think of a way of doing this in webapps or via the order module, this is what I am looking for. Anyone?

Edit, read only, disable, blur items. Which to use?

I've searched the forum and have found some threads that somewhat discuss my question, but none have addressed it specifically.
I have a page that has 20 or so items on it. There are 3 fields (like status) that determine which items may be edited, so whether these items may be edited or not will change from row to row.
As I've stated I've searched on the words disable, etc. and have some ideas on how to best handle this process. For one, I don't want to use disable. But, I'm new to ApEx and don't know the best route to take. Should I use the ReadOnly setting on the item and code using PL/SQL? Or, should I handle it in JavaScript and check the status, etc. there and blur the item?
I want to do this the best way, because I want all of our future apps to use the same concept. And, I want to use a concept that will run efficiently.
Thanks in advance for your response.
Tony

I have done this several different ways and have found that it has been best to utlilize pl/sql from the Read-Only using "pl/sql function body returning a boolean". From the read-only, we call a package that handles all the READ-ONLY checks (we put the call into every field by default).<br><br>
Then all we have to do is pass in the current page number and the userID and the package determines whether or not that user is credentialed to view the items on the page item by item.<br><br>
For your example, you could pass the values of the fields on the screen and get your boolean result back for read-only. The advantage to the pl/sql returning boolean is that you can impact the whole application by changing the package that does the credential checking, as opposed to creating and editing page specific javascript for all pages where you want to protect fields.
