Executions on both tab control and list tab

In my TestStand OI, on the left exists the listbox that contains the Sequence Files and Executions. On the right is the tab control that shows the Test Sequence only. Then, when a sequence file is run, the Executions and Report tab appear. What do I add/change such that the Executions tab is displayed next to the Sequence tab at all times.

Hi mrbean,
I am not quite sure how this will benefit you as the Execution tab is solely for executions and when you start up your OI, there is no executions you are running. However, if you open up the Full OI's block diagram, you will notice a subVI called "Full OI - Show Appropriate Tabs". This is the VI that sets when the tabs are visible. If you change up that case structure for the ListBar (setting the different boolean constants), you can dictate which tabs are visible.
Hope this helps!
Best Regards,

on my main page i have a five tab control, and each tab has its own content. below the tab control and external to it is another region containing a dynamic page portlet. this region faithfully shows its contents when 4 of the 5 tabs are displayed. when the 5th tab is displayed, it is empty. i've cleared the cache numerous time with no effect.
if anybody has any ideas please pass them on.

Controls in ITEM and LIST tabs of Ribbon disabled always in Punishing SharePoint 2013 site if i add list to home page as List View Webpart

Hi,
Below is the scenario,
If i created any custom list and navigating to the list (AllItems.aspx) and on selecting the item, i can see controls in ITEM and LIST tabs of Ribbon are enabled in SharePoint 2013 publishing site.
If i add the same list in the home page (add web part --> select list view webpart) in the publishing site, on selecting of item, all controls in ITEM and LIST tabs of Ribbon are disabled always.
Please help me to fix this issue ASAP.
Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Ribbon controls (only ITEM and LIST tab) still in disabled mode even if i selected the item in the list view webpart.
Also, i have noticed the below things,
when i create a published site (default page : default.aspx) and add the list view webpart in the default page, the controls are in disabled mode on selecting item in list view webpart.
when i create a team site (default page : home.aspx) and add the list view webpart in the default page, the controls are in enable mode on selecting item in list view webpart.
Please help me on this.

"Tab" control and Tab order of controls inside the tab

Hello everybody,
I have created the tab control with 6 'tabs', inside every tab I have some controls, like edit fields etc. I wanted to make an order of controls for every tab, so I have selected the option "Tab-order settings" from menu "Edit" (sorry for translation, I use non-English version of LabView), and tried to set the order. After saving it with "OK" button it turned out that the order is not changed. Simple it seems that the option doesn't work for controls in tabs. Is this a bug or do you have a solution for this?
TIA,
Yazilim.

Sorry LabviewGuru, but I haven't found anything concerning Tab control and tab order inside it. Of course, I have found the topic "tabbing through front panel objects", but it simply describes how to change order for standard controls, not for controls which are inside the Tab control. But maybe you have another, extended help? So can you please copy and paste to discussion forum message this part of your help which concerns the Tab control and tab order, and then send the message?
TIA,
Yazilim.

How to save the tab app and group tabs ?

The Tab App and Group Tab are nice ideas but tend dissappear physicalky.
I do not understand when then dissappear and when not.

Does restoring tabs work or is that failing as well?
*Firefox > Preferences > General > Startup: When Firefox Starts: Show my windows and tabs from last time
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Possible bug with Tab Control and Context Help?

I created Description and Tip text for each Tab of a tab control I am using on my front panel. I have a subVI that is called by selecting a menu item from my main front panel. The subVI's front panel also has a menu system and a Tab Control. I have Description and Tip text written for each of the tabs on the subVI's front panel.
When I enable context help from the menu of my main VI, the proper help text shows up for the tabs on the main vi and, when I bring up the subVI's front panel, for its tabs as well.
So far so good...
Now I builld the application and run it as an executable. For ALL of my panel tab descriptions, I get the tab's label in bold text, but no description (just a blank area).
Is this a bug in LabVIEW?

I'm still seeing this behavior in LV8.2.1. Does anyone know if/when it was fixed? Also, my tip strips show up in the corner of the monitor when I mouse over a tab (in both the executable and the development version).
I see it still even in 8.5.
The Help part of the bug is still NOT fixeed by NI.
But I dont get the tool tip appearing in the corner of the monitor, it is showing up as usual.

Tab Control and Property node

Hi everyone,
i'm trying to create a vi that is able to run more than one test simultaneously but so far i only succeed in using the tab control to control case structure.
What should i do to change the vi to suit my objective?
thanks for any insight.
Currently using labview 8, winsXP.

The tab control is just something that tells which page is visible. It has nothing to do with the execution of code. To have multiple things happening at the same time, you will need several while loops happening in parallel with each test in its own while loop. Right now your code (and maybe its on a section of screen you didn't copy to the .jpg) does not show any looping whatsoever.

Hi,
Aaa.. the blue box is an Enumeration Constant. Because I've used something like this you cannot change the name of the Tabs. To fix it:
Simply replace these two Constants with Numerical Integer Constants 0 - for the first Tab and 1 - for the Second Tab. It took me a while to understand what you wanted to say . This way you can change the name without getting an error.
I've rewritten the entire VI in order to be clean (I was ashamed of the previous one). You can still use the first one.
Just an advice: Even if it looks at the beginning more complicated try to use Event Structure all the time when you have buttons. The use of loops with buttons and if structure (like in your vi) creates a lot of problems and it's hard to debug.

How do I create more tabs in my tab control, and place graphs/charts on these.

It has to be done in the program depending on a setup file.
This is due to that I have from 2 till 100 graphs/charts needed to be shown. One graph/chart on each tab.
How many tabs I need comes from the setup file.

This is not really a goo way to approach this. 100 tabs ouch. This would not only be a nightmare to code and keep up to date but I think it
could be done. Here is an examlpe of how to do it in LV 8 and a file saved for previous into 7.1 it seams to me it was easier to do in lv 7 but I cannot be sure since I no longer have 7.0 or 7.1 on this machine.

Tab control and Ring???

have a tab control, where results will be displayed on tabs A,B,C
in my vi. i have a ring; of options 1,2,3 when i change them i get various results. (A-C correspond to 1-3)
is there a way when i select '2' on my ring, it will bring up tab B??
hope this makes some sort of sense.
Thanks in advance.

The pages of a tab control are inherently an Enum.
If you create an Enum control, and wire that to a local variable of the tab control, then the Enum control will change to that page within the tab control.

Tab control and Multiline mode property

We are using tab control with multiline mode property true. We have around 20 tab pages and because of multiline mode property items are displayed in three rows. Annoying thing is whenever we do selection of a tab in first row tab items get rearranged
and my selected tab will come to last row. Is any one facing the same issue. Please suggest me.

The selected Tab has no bottom border (assuming top alignment) and so the selected tab should always merge with the tabpage. This is why the row with the selected tab always moves to the tabpage border. If you don't want this behaviour then set the tabcontrols
appearance to Button and the rows will not change when a tab is selected.

Tab controls and team develop enviroment

I just tried to insert a control to the form and I realised that there is tab controls available to insert.
I would like to know does DW have tab control, if yes, any way to access it?
by the way, does DW have version control for team develop enviroment?
Your information is great appreciated,
iccsi

Thanks for the message,
Do you mean that I need plug in a version control or CF has its own version controls?
If it has how can I access it?
Thanks again for helping,

Customizing Tab control and Enum

I am trying to do two things here regarding customizing controls.
The first is to add a down-arrow decoration to an enum so that it looks kind of like a menu ring (click the down arrow to drop down the selections). If I simply paste it on top of the control, the decoration will intercept the click and not drop the selections down. I want to have the control colored, so putting it behind and making the ring text background transparent doesn't really work either. If I make it part of the "Ring Text" background element, it's fine for that one size, but if I resize the control it gets all stretched out.
The second is to modify the "Page Labels Display" in a tab control. The only selection allowed when attempting to customize the tab control is to "replace" the page labels display with a different control type. Every enum or ring that I've tried has simply beeped at me with no replacement. I would really like to get the aforementioned Ring-styled enum in this box as well.
One other quirk that I haven't noticed before (Maybe since I haven't done a lot of work with tabs in the past), but when I'm trying to get context help for anything inside of a tab, the only thing that shows up is the context help for the tab itself. Is that "working as expected"?
Regards,
Mike

hi Mike,
there is another discussion forum covering your first question, but it sounds like your best bet would be a ComboBox:
This will give you the appearance you want, and behaves the same as an Enum.
In order to set up a similar drop down menu of the pages of a Tab Control, it will be a little more indirect. Take a look at the attached example, which populates a combo box with the pages of a Tab Control.
That quirk you mentioned with the Context Help and Tab Controls is a known bug, and is fixed in LabVIEW 2011. Hope this helps!

How to create tab control within a tab control?

So I'll lay out the basic outline of my project. Right now I have a tab control which scrolls through each of its tabs 1 second at a time. It does this until the user presses the pause button, the the scrolling stops and the user sees the tab that was onscreen right at the moment of pressing pause. Now what I want to do is have a separate tab control which comes up automatically once the user presses pause instead of the 1st tab control just stopping as it does now.
Or alternatively is there a way to programmatically tell the tab control to stop on a specific tab once pause is pressed? Even turn on and/or off the tab labels upon pressing pause? I've been informed I can accomplish this by way of using "nodes" I think is the term, but have yet to successfully implement anything.

On Pause value change-event, change tab. To lock, either disable tab control (which'll also disable its controls), keep track of pause status to return to this tab if changed (in the tab change event) or place a transparent image over the tab selectors (which'll stop attempts of clicking them).

Can't grasp the relation between tab set, parent tab, standard tab set and standard tab

Very novice to apex application building, but after trying to figure the concepts behind the tab sets I'm getting more and more confused about it as I always get different behaviour when changing things.
The documentation is not very clear on this.
Is there someone who can explain this in a comprehensive way?
It would be nice to have a view on the consequences of using these different levels of groupings.
Any help will be dearly appreciated ;-)

One level tab application
Tabsets are used to group standard tabs.
Use full when splitting up the application in different sections. Much like how the apex is split up in the application builder, sql workshop, team developend and administration.
Parent tabs aren't used. And a one level tab application can't be turned into a two level tab application.
Two level tab application
Parent tabs belong to only one tabset "main".
The standard tabset is the connection between the parent tab and standerd tab.
There is one standard tabset for every parent tab.
The standard tabset in the two level application has the same function as the tabset in the one level application.
The standard tabset also determines when a parent tab is current.
When on the page the setting Standard Tab Set is set then the parent tab belonging to that standard tabset is current.
This means that if you change a page form one parent tab to an other you not only need to change the tab settings. But also the settings on the page.
If you still in the position to choose between list or tabs as your main form of navigation I would recommend using lists.
The possibilities with the list templates are greater that with tabs.
Tabs have a maximum of two levels. List don't have such a limit.
If you created your application as a one level tab application you can't turn it in a second level application without some serious hacking.
Clicking on a standard tab submits the page and branch after the computations. This could also be viewed as a pro for tabs because with list navigation your page needs to be accessible by url. Did isn't necessary with standard tabs making them more secure. Parent tabs also use an url to navigate.
Only the standard tabs belonging to the current standard tabset are rendered making a drop down menu impossible.
Hope this clears up some of your questions.
