Edit palette views, templates

Some questions on editing the palette views and templates in the New-Dialog:
* Is it possible to have a control template selectable in the New Dialog?
* If I place a template Vi on the functions palette, it is dropped as the original Template vit file. I would like to have it dropped as new Vi, same behaviour as when using 'Select a VI', but skip the file browsing.
* How can I place assorted VIs that are 'built in control or function'. I have seen the Data To Variant on the OpenG Variant Palette.
I'm working with 7.1.

You can drop a ctt in the LabVIEW\Templates folder (or sub-folder)

You need to pin the palette, than you can right click the VIT this will give an option to create a VI from the template

If you edit the palettes you can add primitives (if I'm not mistaken)

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!
Solved!

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.

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

How can we add multiple editable region in template

Hi,
My issue is when I am going to create a new template I want to add multiple editable region in template and I want to use those editable region per page wise so that in page editor I will add different text for each page for those editable region.
I can use incontxt editor to change those area for different pages although is it possible to use online editor to add different text for different pages.
I also have a plan to solve the issue ... that is also not working.
Plan is .. if we can use tag (not the default one in template), want to use different tag like {tag_headding},{tag_sidebarcontent} in template so that we can use those tag in template and fill the field in the page online editor, so when differnt page we will create we will fill those field for those tag and that will show in the front view of the site.
Please help me. I am really stuck on this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Projjwal,
Yes, if you look at many of the commercial BC templates available the way they are getting around it is with Content Holders and multiple templates.
Now I know you will say that multiple templates is high maintenance ..... not if you use Content holders for both recurring content and unique content.
Think of Conent Holders as 'Includes' ... I have been doing it this way with templates that I build from scratch as well. Easier than you think.
And that way the client can change content such as footer information or whatever that appears on all pages without editing the template itself.
Only drawback is that if you are using Design View in Dreamweaver the content holders don't render. But other than that Content Holders are awesome.

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.

Where is the data palette view?

Hi,
We are using the Ellipse come along with Weblogic Portal 10.3.2 for a new project development.
We are unable to find the data palette view which is the very useful feature provided by previous Workshop.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14981-01/wli/docs1031/jpdtutorial/tutWLIProcessDesignView.html
Data palette displays the all the variables the JSP page can use and devleopers just need to drag the variable into JSP instead now to type manfully like ${pageContext.request.requestURI}
Anyone can advise on it?

I should also add that you will need to make sure the JSP is opened with the "Web Page Editor". There are multiple editors that can be used to edit a page (Eclipse has a "JSP Editor" and a "Text Editor" associated to JSP files as well). The Palette view in the "Web Page Editor" contains the "Data Palette" you are looking for. It will display page variables and managed beans (for JSF) that you will be able to drag and drop. OEPE also has content assist support that should help with writing EL expressions as in your example.

Editing Metadata view

In the inpsector, I've selected "Edit metadata view" and selected a few things from the options that I have set my camcorder to output (data code), in particular the aperture and shutter speed used when recording a scene or photo.
Even though I select these items, and click "OK" they never actually appear in the inspector view, anywhere.
Does anyone know how to do this? I seem to have done everything it says to do in the manual, but must have missed a bit.....

The All option does appear to be missing in 3.2 (not sure if it was in 3.0 or not). In any case, I usually develop my own templates manually. You can also try out the plug-in at: http://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/metadata-presets which should generate the desired template (including an "all" template) if you so desire. I am not related to this developer but you might take a look at his site for other plug-ins that might benefit your workflow.

I can no longer EDIT nor VIEW events created in iCal...

I have a problem with my iCal in that I can longer edit nor view events.
I can create events, but only the first line of the details for a new event. I am not able to edit or add more info in any way after that (date, time, details, etc.)
I can delete the event though.
When I say I cannot edit nor view events, this problem occurs when double-clicking, when right/CMD-clicking, choosing the relevant command from the menu, or when typing the keyboard shortcut of either CMD-i or CMD-e.
Nothing works. Nothing happens. It's as if I have chosen to do nothing at all.
I have an iPhone which I use to sync events between my Mac and my iPhone, but without being able to properly create an event on my Mac with a chosen time and alarm, etc. iCal on my Mac is almost useless. All my events now have to be created on my iPhone - even when I am sitting right in front of my Mac.
The only use my Mac's iCal is to me now is for pop-up reminders after an event from my iPhone has been synced to my Mac.
The problem I am having with iCal is happening with all the calendars I have set up.
I have no online subscriptions, everything's local.
I have my iPhone set to auto-sync with my Mac for all data.
I am running the latest versions of iCal, the Mac OS (Leopard), the latest iPhone OS, etc.
I tried deleting all my iCal preferences from the ~username/Library/Preferences, but that didn't work.
I tried deleting all my calendars from within iCal in case there was a corrupt calendar, but that didn't work.
I trashed everything I could find that had anything to do with iCal (knowing I could restore from a recent Time-Machine backup), but still nothing worked.
Even when I had an empty iCal to work with, creating a test new-event revealed the same problems of not being able to edit the event after the first line.
I have since restored all my data from the backup I did the other day, so I am back to square one - not that anything I tried before this actually moved me off square one in any way...
Can anyone help me here? It's getting really frustrating having to type all my events out on the iPhone screen, especially when I'm sitting at my computer.

Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

Sharing stopped. Sharing set to allow editing and viewing. He can see what I enter. I can't see his entries.

Sharing set to allow editing and viewing. He can see what I enter. I can't see his entries. He sees his entries plus mine. I only see mine. This all worked fine a week ago.

I'm sorry to be so incredibly dense. The article to which you linked says:
"If the computer is already authorized, the item plays. If the computer has not yet been authorized, iTunes asks you to enter the Apple ID and password you used to purchase the song."
I can play songs from my husband's library. I can't drag them into my library.
If deauthorizing/authorizing is the solution, who needs to do what? We've got three computers and two iTunes accounts.

Unable to see SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in 7.4 portal

Hello Experts,
We are looking to integrate dashboards created with BOBJ design studio into enterprise portal (NW 7.4). We have followed the steps mentioned in the blog Integration of BOBJ with SAP Portal.
Namely:
1. Taken the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par and com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.templates.epa files from the BI server
2. Imported the EPA file into the portal
3. Converted the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par file into EAR file and deployed it into the portal
4. Created System alias for the BI system
5. Configured SSO between portal and the BI server
After doing these steps when trying to create the Business Objects iView we are unable to see the SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in the portal. Can anyone let me know if we have missed some additional configuration that has to be done?
Regards,
Saurabh

Hi Experts,
Issue has been resolved. After importing the EPA file into the portal, we missed out restarting the portal. Once this was done I am now able to find the SAP BusinessObjects Document List and SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer templates in the iView creation wizard.
Regards,
Saurabh

How do I view templates in English in the Pages program?

Most templates that include sample text will have "Lorem ipsum" Latin placeholder text, formatted as such. If you really need to know what it says, translated to English, you can copy it and use a service such as Google Translate.
Don't expect to understand much of it, as it's not meant to be informative.

Can't edit, slideshow, view photos

I have looked through all of these postings, but still can't figure out why I can't use my iPhoto. If I click on a thumbnail to edit or view as a slideshow, all I get is the dotted line with the i in the middle of the screen. I can view only three photos that are a smaller size jpg than everthing else I pulled from my camera. I tried rebuilding my thumbnails and that didn't work. I just don't know what else to do.

Leaha
Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder. Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose the top three options.
If you have made changes in the iPhoto Library Folder - moved or renamed things - then you'll need to put things back the way they were. If you can't do that then you'll need to create and populate a new library:
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same film rolls and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, books, calendars etc.
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual rolls to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library Folder on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

How do i get my videos to be full screen when editing and viewing on ipad 2

How do i get my videos to be full screen when editing and viewing on ipad 2. When editing videos in imovie the video isnt zoomed in all the way, this is with imported videos as well as ipad videos... Please help!!

Oh, unless you shot tall.
If you shoot vertical/tall video it cannot be zoomed all the way out in the exit.
Shoot wide, or edit in a different editing app.

How to delete editable regions and template?

Hi everybody,
I posted this question earlier in the web discussions area, being unaware of a forum specific to Dreamweaver. Sorry for posting in two different places.
For the past week, I have been learning Dreamweaver CS4 from an online tutorial. I got to the place where I generated a template (index.dwt) from the main page (index.html) and created some editable regions on it. At that point, I realized that I had done all the steps by rote and did not actually absorb what I was doing. I wanted to delete the template in order to repeat the steps and gain a better understanding of the process. When I tried to delete the editable regions (modify-templates-remove editable regions), I was unable to do so because "remove editable regions" was greyed out. Nor was I able to delete the html code. I tried to delete the template itself, but when I did that, the index.html page retained those editable regions! Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get back to the place I was in before creating the template?
Thank you for any assistance.

All you need to do is detach the index.html file from the template. Then you can delete the template and start all over.
Go to the Modify menu --> Templates --> Detach from Template
