Feedback from the Tab Control

I have 3 tabs, and each one runs a sequence, in a case associated with the tab control. When I start my program, the sequence found in the active tab (case) runs. I have put 3 Stop buttons (one per tab) to stop each of cases (actually to stop a loop there). After stopping a sequence on a tab, I can press on another tab and change this way the running sequence.
Now, I'd like to stop any running sequence in a tab's case by just pressing on another tab and this way starting the sequence associated with that tab. This would eliminate the Stop buttons. But how to do it, because just the selection of another tab with the operating tool neither triggers an event nor launches the case associated with that tab?
I use LabView 6.1 under Win2K. TIA.

In each of the loops that you monitor the stop buttons, inspect the local value of the tab control and compare it for changed value or the value of your specific case. In either case the logic is the same as your stop button. While( !StopButton AND !TabChanged)

Data Origin Types not filled in the tab "Control Data" of BP interface

Hello experts,
I have loaded the clients from ECC6.0 to CRM 4.0.
Before I have loaded the clients I have maintained the data origin type for the BP in spro -> cross application components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business partner -> Basic settings -> Data Origin -> Maintain Data Origin Type.
After I have done the load initial of clients, the field "Data Origin" is empty in the tab "Control Data" in BP interface. If I do F4 in the field appear the configuration that I did in spro appear.
For this field will appear filled I'll need to do more configurations in spro?
Best regards,
Mary

Hi Mary,
The middleware does not fill this field in BP master data. You can maintain data origin type in SPRO, however the mBdoc does not use this customizing in order to fill this field.
Please try to use the BADI CRM_DATAEXCHG_BADI in order to fill this field during master data download.
It hope it helps.

Why does Waveform Chart Initalized by Property nodes behave erratically when hidden such as by the Tab Control?

I am using wave form Chart on a tab control. The problem is that the chart works fine when it is showing. I can stop the data and reset the chart history successfully. The Fun begins when I go to say Page 2 of Tab control ( The wave form Chart is on Page 1). If I now try to initilize my chart with offset, multiplier, min and max rage values - The chart assumes values on the X scale which are arbitrary. I can see this when I go back to Page 1.!!
But If Page 1 were showing and I did the same Operation The chart behaves as I expect it too.
Can this behaviour be explained? How do I resolve this Problem? Also I have Observed that from time to time the Sca
ling on X Axis may also change when the Chart is Hidden by the tab control. I have not been able to identify the reason for this, It is totally random.
Good Luck!

I did a similar workaround ...
Everytime I Toggle the Run Button, I am making sure the active Tab is the one with Waveform Chart. This way the waveform Initializes fine. Then I try to Switch the active tab back to its One Previous Value, programatically - So that the user may have somewhat seamless interaction.
There is one hitch however - The waveform Chart needs some time to initialize and my data stream is also coming at every second. So if I switch Immediately to some other tab, Sometimes I am successful, Sometimes I am not. Again this depends om System Speed and such. If I update the Tab Control at the next iteration, it is very irritating visually. So I left the Tab control at the waveform chart after reset. If the User wants they can switch it Bac
k.
Of Course the best thing to do is don't Reset. Referred the problem to NI Apps. They said it will be fixed in the next version.
Well! Got to make enough money without resetting so that we can buy the new Version, which will reset!! Ciao! And Thanks for your answer.

The "New Tab" function does not work either from the tab bar, the File drop down menu or using CTRL+T

The new tab is visible on the the tab bar but clicking on it does not open a new tab.Neither can I open a new tab from the File drop down menu, nor the Ctrl+T method as indicated in the troubleshooting guide.

How to control the tab control using event structure?

Hi,
I am using tab control and event structure in the program.
When i run the application event is not happening for the active page.
When user switches from active page to the other page then event is taking place for all pages
So, how to get the event trigger for the active page when the application is started
For more clarification i am attaching the code "Test Control Tab using Event Structure.vi"

Test Control Tab using Event Structure.vi ‏52 KB

You have a basic misunderstanding of dataflow. Maybe you should start with some tutorials or study some of the examples that ship with LabVIEW.
The event structure belongs inside the while loop, and not vice versa. RIght now, the event structure only runs exactly once and never again.
If the stop is pressed first, the VI will stop. Game over.
If the tab control is changed (from any state to any other state!), the inner loop will spin forever as fast as the CPU allows, either executing one or the other case. It just reads the tab terminal to decide which case to execute. Changing tab never triggers any events. The VI is trapped inside the event until stop is pressed to stop the VI.
you were closer to a reasonable program in the other thread:

Have you tried execution highlighting? Maybe things would become more clear of you do.

Feedback from the tv back through my sound card

I have a macbook pro I7. I hook up the tvs through VGA I get feedback from the tv back through both my internal and my external sound card. It is a loud low hum and you can see the lines running through the tv. I have the same problem with or with out the exteral sound card. When I hook up my PC to the TV it works fine and no problems. Also if I just hook up a second monitor it works fine. As soon as I unplug the vga adapter all the feedback stops. any ideas?

Connect your iPad to iTunes, go to the TV Shows tab of your iTunes sync settings, uncheck the ones you no longer want on your iPad and sync to remove them.

Can you print all the tab control's contents and include the tabs?

We are trying to generate a report that includes the contents of a tab control (graphs, text). Using the Append Control Image to Report.vi, we are only able to print out the active tab and the tab is cut off of the image. How can we generate reports that include all the tab pages and their contents and include the labeling tabs?
Thanks in advance.
Jim

I do have a workaround for makinging the prints but it looks like some sort of cropped screensave that cuts off the tabs. In my sample I was printing out 3 of the tab controls and you can see there are three by the cut off tabs. Is there a setting to allow for more of the graph and its surroundings to be "captured"?

Is there any way to remove a hyperlink from the tab order?

My form is 4 pages long and after I tab through all numbered tab fields, my mouse moves to the hyperlinks on page 1 instead of the next field on page 2. The hyperlink fields do no appear in the list of tabbed fields and I can't move it to the end of my document (page 4).

No, you can't remove links from the tab order.

When I resize the font for the Page Labels on the tab control in LabVIEW 7, the Increment/Decrement size gets messed up. Is there a solution to this problem or is this a bug?

I have noticed in LabVIEW 7.0 and 7.1 that when the text in the page labels display is enlarged, that the arrows enlarge but the top arrow enlarges more then the small arrow but then when you decrease the text size, the arrows stay remain large. This is not a problem in 6.1 because the arrows aren't available. Is there a work around for this bug or do I have to use small text for these page label arrows to look right?

I must admit that I've never used the page labels display and it does look like a bug. You can fix it however. Select the tab control and choose Advanced>Customize. In the control editor, select the page label control and do the same thing. You should be in the control editor for the numeric control and then you can go to edit mode and enlarge the decrement arrow to make it the same size as the increment.

Generate text from the effect controls

Is it possible to generate text from a textfield (or something similar) from the effect controls?
I have an Adjustment Layer with a custom effect on it with a Slider, two Color pickers and four Checkboxes.
Can I somehow add a textfield that the user can input text in, and then link this to a text layer in the composition?
The reason I want this, is because the user can add all the information in one effect, instead of having multiple text layers to edit.
I don't think there is a textbox for this, but is there anpther way? Let's say I add an effect that has a dynamic name, that I can link up to the source text of my textlayers in the composition.
Any help would be much appreciated
Eirik

Thank you for fast reply!:)
Ok, then I guess it can't be done, not the way I hoped anyway.
This is the effect I have made. I have linked the properties to other layers.
What I wanted was an input field where the user inputs for example "My Title". The source text of my text field in the composition would then update to "My Title".
I know I could probably do this by code, but then the original point kinda disappears. It should be easy for the user to adjust the settings under one effect, instead of having to adjust it multiple places.
I guess the user have to edit the textfield in the comp by actually going into the layer (doubleclick it/highlight it with the text tool etc.) unless you have a genius workaround? (Please say you do:P)

Accessibility, exclude UI elements from the Tab-chain

Hi,
I have a complex UI which is very uncomfortable to access with the Tab key when using sap-accesssibility=true parameter. The main problem are the many transparent containers, which are necessary to create the refined composition of the UI. They get focused when the Tab key is pressed and this is completely useless. I there a way to exclude UI elements from the Tab-chain?
Best regards,
Krasimir

Hi,
I have same prolem here.
In my UI I am using mastercolumn for expand /collapse functionality in parent - child node .
The problem is the keyboard tab-chain is skipping the master column which makes it a accessibility issue.
Is there any way we can include/exclude UI elements from tab chain.
My NWDS version is 7.0.10.

Const from a 'tab control typedef' crashes lv6.1

LabView crashes with 'failure: datamgr.cpp line 2854' if I do the following:
1/ Make typedef of a TAB Control
2/ Place this typedef control on front panel
3/ create Const on diagram (also depends on typedef)
4/ change in the typedef the 'tab control' (change a page name)
saving this new typedef vi will crash LabView
(as if the const can not be updated correctly)
Seen on Win98 and Win2000. LabView 6.1
(Labview 6.0 doesn't allow "custimise control" with TAB controls, so here no errors)

Verified on XP:
Failure : "datamgr.cpp", line 2854
Have you reported this to NI, or checked out www.ni.com/failure ?
