Forcing Mathscript/Matlab figure window display position

I know in most cases I can always output the values of my mathscript/Matlab variables through the "add output and an indicator".
But in some cases I just want the output plot to be generated from Mathscript/Matlab. especially since some MATLAB plot command cannot be output in Labvies
I have attached two pic files for the block diagram and the plot figure generated. When the plot figure popped up, it is usually at the center of the screen. Is there a way to force the window to pop up say at the uppermost left corner?

How to display error messages and output from Matlab (which Matlab would typically send to its command window but no longer does when called by Labview) into Labview or allow it to be dumped into Matlab Command Window?

Using Labview 6i and Matlab 6.1. I want to be able to see Matlab warnings and error messages either in the Matlab Command Window or in Labview itself. Currently Matlab is called by Labview (which is working). However I would like to debug and/or modify my Matlab script file to better understand how the two programs are interfacing. It is difficult since no data or messages can be displayed currently to the Matlab command window. I would like to change that if it is possible - Labview is suppressing that from happening. If not possible to send these
messages to Matlab Command Window can I make it at least possible to see Matlab's actual warnings and/or error messages in Labview?

I don't think you can debug your Matlab script from labVIEW. The following webpage talks about this:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/19106e318c476e608625670b005bd288?OpenDocument
My suggestion would be to write a script in Matlab and thoroughly test it before calling the script from a Matlab script node in LabVIEW.

What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message

Greetings fellow Podders, Resident Furball here...
It is about time that I produced a single post for all the chkdsk issues that we've been discussing since November 2004. The Apple KB article seems to cover the major points succinctly, but we need to address the more serious variations and flavours of the problem.
<hr>
What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message
Many users are coming across this seemingly distressing error message in Windows when connecting their iPods. As described in Apple KB Article 300554, the message reads:
iTunes: iTunes.exe - Corrupt File
The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes\????????? is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility.
and the ????????? can be anything (eg. sysinfo, Temp1, DeviceInfo etc.).
<hr>
Don't panic!
If you do see this, don't worry, and don't panic. Contrary to what the error message reads, this issue actually has very little to do with iTunes. The iPod_Control is the key to this - because this folder doesn't even exist in iTunes... it's on the iPod!
...so! Installing and uninstalling iTunes really won't do you much good at all... it's the iPod that needs attention.
<hr>
What's causing this error?
To be honest, we don't know. We saw a massive number of reports of this issue back in November 2004, because iPod Updater 2004-11-15 contained a firmware bug that corrupted iPod system files when the Pod entered Deep Sleep.
But this firmware bug was corrected in iPod Updater 2005-06-26.
Of late, we have seen a resurgence in chkdsk errors on Discussions. Some of these are caused by the old buggy firmware that people still have. Some of the errors are more serious and are hardware and operating system-related. But we have still to pin down the exact cause of this error.
<hr>
Okay, so what do I do if I see this error?
In short, as Apple have recommended in their KB article:
Restore your iPod, using the latest iPod Updater.
Follow the instructions carefully. Ensure that you download the iPod Updater. Ensure that you install it, and then ensure that you run it with the iPod connected and follow the prompts to the letter.
The broad majority of the errors are painlessly fixed this way. Of course, it does mean that your iPod will be wiped, so make sure that you have your music/data backed up, and/or present in iTunes so you can resynchronise it when you have finished Restoring.
<hr>
Okay, I've Restored, but the error is still coming up
Are you sure you've Restored? Quite a number of folks are assuming that just downloading the iPod Updater is enough. It's not. And neither is downloading iPod Updater, and installing it on your computer. It needs to be implemented on the iPod, according to the iPod Updater instructions.
Okay, so if you have Restored your iPod, and you are still getting this error, then you have a variety of options available.
Chkdsk errors that are not fixed with a Restore are most likely down to two things:
1) A physical issue on the iPod itself
or
2) An issue on the computer's operating system
Here's where it gets woolly. There are a variety of things you could try...
Format the iPod in Windows
This would usually have the same effect as a Restore, but a deep-level format in Windows is something that Apple have recommended in the past, as a last resort to completely wipe the iPod before performing a Restore with iPod Updater. This process wipes the iPod.
To do this:
1) Enable Disk Mode on the iPod. You can do this either in iTunes (which is best), or manually on the iPod itself.
2) Open My Computer and locate your iPod
3) Right-click the iPod and select Format
4) Leave the parameters set at their defaults, and ensure Quick Format is unchecked
5) Hit Format
6) Then Restore your iPod as normal.
Run the Chkdsk utility
You could run the chkdsk utility on your iPod. But Restoring your iPod has the same effect as running chkdsk. Chkdsk does not wipe your iPod.
1) Enable Disk Mode as above
2) Determine the drive letter of your iPod from My Computer
3) Go to Start, Run
4) Type cmd. Hit Enter to take you to the Command Prompt.
5) Type chkdsk /f X:, where X is the drive letter of your iPod. Hit Enter, and any corrupt files are found and corrected.
Run Windows ScanDisk
ScanDisk is the Windows version of Chkdsk. It does not wipe your iPod.
1) Enable Disk Mode
2) Right-click the iPod in My Computer, select Properties
3) Select Tools
4) Select the option to scan the disk for errors
Try changing the Drive Letter of the iPod
Sometimes Windows confuses the drive letters, and this can cause the iPod to be adversely affected. Try the instructions detailed in Apple KB Article 93499 to change the drive letter of the iPod. This does not wipe your iPod.
Try changing Hardware Policies for the iPod
The Hardware Policies in Windows have been known to affect the way in which the iPod connects, synchronises, and disconnects. This does not wipe your iPod.
1) Enable Disk Mode so the iPod appears in My Computer
2) Right-click the iPod in My Computer
3) Select Properties
4) Select Hardware Policies
5) Select Optimize for Performance (instead of Optimize for Removal)
6) Restart your computer.
Contact Apple for a replacement iPod
Some chkdsk issues have been caused by faulty hardware. As a last resort, contact Apple Support by phone to report your issue, and/or request an iPod Service.
If you explain that you have followed all these steps, you should have a strong case for obtaining a replacement iPod.
<hr>
Thanks!
Thank you to everyone for their continued support, kindness and excellent troubleshooting skills here on Discussions. There are countless people that I am deeply grateful to for their assistance in handling this issue. Rest assured folks, you have made me the Discussions Furball that I am today.
Happy Podding folks!
Kind regards,
Gopha.

iPod Updater 2006-03-23 has been released
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 includes iPod Software 1.1.1 for the new iPod and new iPod Software 1.1.1 for iPod nano.
iPod Updater 2006-03-23 contains the same software versions as iPod Updater 2006-01-10 for all other iPod models.
What's new in iPod Updater 2006-03-23:
- Volume limit
- Bug fixes
I have been trying to ascertain from Apple Support Level 2 as to whether the latest iPod firmware improves or provides better resolution for the chkdsk issue. If anyone has been using iPod Updater 2006-03-23 to resolve their chkdsk woes, feel free to post in here just to say how things worked out for you...
Kind regards,

I attempt to open a second window from the icon but it does not open then when firefox is closed it will not reopen because it is still running in processes but no window displayed until you kill the process and then restart firefox.

I attempted to open a new window from the Firefox icon but nothing happens. I then went on browsing and closed Firefox but was later unable to open it. I checked processes and it was already running but there was no window displayed. I am running Windows 7 Professional.
This is repeated any time I already have the browser open and wish to open a second instance.

I see a small window displaying "Are you sure you want to shut down your computer now". How do I stop appearing this window

Is this after you've chosen to Shutdown from the Menu, or just on it's own?
You can press the esc key to cancel, or Enter key to shutdown.
Check your System Preferences>Energy Saver>Schedule & see if it's set to shutdown at a certain time.

Removing English IME while keeping Windows Displaying Language as English?

Until Windows 7, Windows Displaying Language (WDL) and IMEs were independent. It was possible to set the WDL to English and use only Japanese IME. From Windows 8, they seem to be combined. If I set WDL to English, I cannot find a way to remove English
IME.
Many foreign IMEs contain "English" mode. For example, the Japanese IME has direct input mode, and the Korean IME has English mode. So, English IME is not necessary, if you are using those IMEs. Having English IME is annoying because it adds another
complexity when you switch the IME using Shift+Alt or Windows + Space.
Is there any hack to remove the English IME while keeping WDL as English?

Hi,
Yes, this is by design on Windows 8.1. Unless you add another input method for this language package, it cannot be removed. It would keep one input method for this language package at least.
So far there is no any other method to remove IME and keep display language.

Unable to open X windows display

hi
I'm trying to transfer some very old PV-wave (visual numerics) routines into solaris 10 and I keep getting the following errors
WTINIT: Unable to open X windows display.
WwError: Unable to create top level shell.
Now I know I haven't given much info here but I have a feeling that its simply that I haven't set some paths properly. Where does one normally call the X windows display from.
Much thanks
Anna
Sunblade 1000 running solaris 10.

Hi
Are you logged in to the machine remotely or locally?
If locally, then you shouldn't need to change anything.
There are two things that normally control the X display: the DISPLAY environment variable and the X authority. DISPLAY is usually set to [hostname]:0.0 (unless you have more than one display or are using an X server that emulates mutliple displays).
For X authority, you can either use xhost, which is simple but poses security issues, or xauth, less simple but more secure. If you are safely behind a firewall, and you trust your colleagues, then "xhost + [hostname]" is the quickest solution.

Safari loads but no window displayed,

Safari seems to load but no window displayed. New Window doesn't help. Loading from Application folder, no difference. Yesterday I loaded an application DataGuardian, thought that might be confilicting so I removed it, no difference. Have rebooted several times. Looked for changes to system by date, no clue. Need a solution that doesn't require a web browser. I'm sending this from a different machine. THanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
You may have a corrupted preference file. Move to your Desktop from your User Library/Preferences folder .com.apple.safari.plist and restart Safari. Any change? If you now get a browser window, then reset the Preferences to your custom settings. If not, move the above file back to its original location replacing the newly created file.
If no change, does the same problem occur if you open Safari from another User Account (create one if necessary in System Preferences>Accounts).
Post back with results.

Key Figures being displayed in Scientific Notation

Hi GURU's,
I have created a Analysis Process Designer (MultiCube to Flat File) and everything seems to be ok in that but the output for 2 of the key figures are in scientific notation (i.e. 10 decimal places) and this needs to be fixed up immediately.
The value of the Key Figure is displayed as 1.72E04 instead of 1,7231810000000001E04
How do I go about solving this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Praveen Battula

I think in floating point math adding 1 to 9999999999999899999999 is going to be a meaningless operation as by the time one converts 1 to a floating point of the scale & precision needed to represent 9999999999999899999999, it's going to lose any significance (ie: it's going to basically be represented as zero).
You'll need to do a search on how to deal with numbers of very high precision & scale. I don't have any code to hand. Have you done any of your own investigation on how to deal with this?

Font is shown very small when using IE Tab and Windows Display is selected to show larger fonts

I'm on Windows 7 - 64 bit and I set my Windows display to show larger fonts (from Control Panel, Display, then choose Larger Fonts). Now all pages show bigger fonts, except when I use IE Tab.
I use IE Tab so that I can open my Microsoft Dynamics CRM website on Firefox; however the fonts look way too small; it is even smaller than when the Display Setting was set to use normal size fonts.
Tried to change to use smaller resolution, it didn't work. Zooming-in is very slow on Firefox, so it is not an option for working on the webpage. Tried changing the default fonts on Firefox, however the page is still always opened with the very small fonts.
From Firefox I also unchecked the "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" (from Tools, Options, Content, Advanced), but it still doesn't fix it.
Played around with my Firefox IE Tab setting, but no luck.
I downgraded my Firefox to version 3.5.9 to use the older IE tab, but still not fixed yet.
Is there a solution for this? Thanks in advanced for your help,
-Elisabeth

Hi...
Thanks for asking....
As I put in my post before, I include template0 in my template1, as seen in template1 (AHM001):
<af:pageTemplateDef var="attrs">
*<af:pageTemplate viewId="/template/AHM000.jspx">*
I use AHM000 inside AHM001. I use this approach to build many template based on one basic design.
Actually, I don't think the problem is in page template usage because as I submitted paralel to Metalink, I've already not called template0 in template1 but I copy template0's contents to template1.
Unfortunately, page designer show small view and below error messages still occured.

Windows 8.1 override for windows display language registry location

Hi,
I need to programmatically set the windows display language (control panel>language>advanced Settings) so that English (United States) is selected. Is there a registry key that I can set this to? I think it would be located here but not sure what to
change :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\MUI\UILanguages
Does any one know where or how to set this in the registry? Or maybe there is a command I can run? The goal is so that the user does not have to manually do this in the control panel.
TIA

Hi mkozz28,
You can specify the default language, locale, and keyboard values during deployment or after Windows is installed. You can configure Windows international settings by using the Windows International PowerShell cmdlets, by using an answer file with Windows
Setup, or by using Deployment Imaging Servicing and Management (DISM).
In your case which is by using command prompt, we recommend using PowerShel depends on your needs.
To sets the Windows user interface (UI) language override setting to en-US for the current user account:
Set-WinUILanguageOverride en-US

How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures?

How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures on the front panel. The main thing is that the window is displaying frames continuously?

vivman,
So from your description you have a picture control where you've already created an image and you'd like to drag an image around inside of the picture control. This can be done although it is going to take a significant amount of research and programming on your behalf. You can use the drag event in the event handler to find out when the drag occurs and where the cursor is. Then edit the picture as you move your mouse so that when you drop the picture gets updated.
The even structure is a somewhat advanced topic and the drag and drop feature is one of the more advanced uses of this structure. I would search the example finder (help>>find examples) for "event" and "drag" to see how to use these events. Also you'll want to look at the examples for the picture control.
Sounds like a cool project! Check out Darren's Weekly Nugget 10/30/2006 this topic (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=212920). It might prove useful.
Good luck!
