Hide certain templates in the Project Builder

Hello friends,
Is there any way that we can hide the templates like activity element, milestone, PS texts in the project builder.
As we are not using those templates we want to hide those as those are creating lot of confusions from the end users.
We have a requirement to hide it.
Any suggestions to achieve it will be helpful.
Regards,
Lohith

Hi...Lohith...
you can use the following function modules to accomplish this (for all your users without having them make the changes on their own)
CNPB_W_READ_PREFS_FROM_DB
(needs the user id's to read preferences...)
CNPB_W_WRITE_PREFS_TO_DB
(in this one you change the preferences of the users to suit your needs, and the necessary indicators, like deactivate activity elements etc)
and also CNPB_W_SET_PREF_VALUE to change prefs for your userid (for testing it)
You can try in a test envinronment FM: CNPB_W_SET_PREF_VALUE and set values of parameters 09:activity elements (' ' or 'X') 10:materials etc....
(after you run FM in se37 goto CJ20N project builder to check on your userid's changes)
Try it and let me know...(we have done it for some users and it works)
Cheers

No release template matching the current build definition was found to create a release and deployment for.

When I try to start a build that's linked to a standard release template (vNext template) I get "No release template matching the current build definition was found to create a release and deployment for." and the build fails.
I am able to successfully start a release from the Release management client so I don't think there is a problem with the release template. If I start a build with agent based template it works fine so I don't think there is any TFS-RM integration issue.
My environment is a 2013 Update 4 (VS, TFS & RM). I even tried to uninstall and re-install all the components still no luck.
I can't find anything useful (or obvious error) in the release management log files & event log (all the RM components log are set to Verbose)
I even tried to trigger a release (vNext) via a REST API suggested in a website but no joy.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bharath,
Thanks for your reply.
Do you mean that you can start this standard release template from your RM Client?
There’s the below error message in your RM Server log, it seems RM Server try to find the Deployment Agent, but standard release needn’t the deployment agent.
ErrorMessage="No communication from the deployer. Possible reasons include: 'Deployer is not installed', 'The service is stopped', 'Deployer is not well configured', 'Deployer is not responsive'"
Additionally, try don’t specific the stage value in your build definition>>Process>> Release Target Stage, then queue build definition again.

No release template matching the current build definition was found

Hi,
I am trying to integrate TFS 2012 project build with Release Managment 2013 Update 3.
I have working agentless (vNext) release template which successfully installs my application on server. Now I want to automaticly start release process after build completition. So I set proper build definition and checked "Can Trigger a Release from
a build?" box. However when build runs I get:
"No release template matching the current build definition was found to create a release and deployment for."
Any ideas what's wrong?
I also tried a solution with Deployment Agent (old Release Template and stuff) and it seems to be working...
Thanks for help,
Michał

As of Update 3 you now can do the trigger for vNext via a REST API. This means you can simply use a PowerShell script called from the standard Default Template xaml file. Below is a script which you can see below can be configured easily into the Build
Definition:
InitiateReleaseFromBuild.ps1:

Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project in iMovie? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. Whenever I add audio or song it covers the whole project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

Thank you for your reply Karsten but unfortunately this didn't help me so far. Or maybe I'm missing something?
First the link is a tutorial for iMovie on a Mac. I'm using iMovie on iPad so the steps are inapplicable.
Second it is only possible for me to manipulate the end part of the sound clip to whichever duration I want. But I can't do the same with the 'beginning' of the sound clip.
I simply want to place some photos in the beginning of my video with no sound in the background then after like 2 secs I want to start the music clip. For some reason that is not possible! Cause every time I drop the music clip unto my project timeline it automatically place it self along with the first frame in the project! And consequently the photos and music are forced to start together.
Hope I'm making sense...

I want to hide certain pictures in the "Gallery"so only I can see when I want. How can I do this?

I want to hide certain pictures in the "Gallery"so only I can see when I want. How can I do this?

Sometimes depending on the SD card (you set the sd card to be where photos are sent) and then place a security code on the files and photos. I know this can be done on a computer not 100% sure about a cell phone.
Another option is to have the photos sent to Picassa (going to be Google+ shortly) or Photo bucket or other web spots for photos or even Drop Box etc. this way your photos are away from the phone, and only the ones on the phone you don't care about remain on the cell
So I hope it works out ok for you.

Adding a template to the project in uperform

Hi All,
The database and the search server is installed in one system. The client is installed in a separate system.
I have created a template in the client system. When i try to create the document in the client, a pop up displays a message "Please select a project that has template assigned to it".
I tried to assign the templates to the project in the server side. But under the uperform templates link, it shows "there are no templates located on the server".
I dont see any options to assign the template to a project.
Can some one help, if you are aware of this?
Regards,
Saba

Hi Saba,
1. You need to create a local template first.
Please open the uPerform client and goto:
File > New
At the right, please choose "template".
Then you should be able to create a new template.
2. After that, you need to check in this template to the server.
Please open the template and goto :
File > Check in > Select the newly created template.
3. Click Administration on the left menu.
4. Click Server Administration in the Administration area.
5. Click uPerform Templates in the Server Administration area.
6. Click on the name of the template to be assigned to the project.
7. Click Assign Template on the left menu.
8. Select the checkbox next to the desired project(s) in the Assign
[Template Name].udt window. Optionally, to assign a template to all projects in the list,
click (select or unselect all).
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Matthew

In the labview\resource\appbuild folder their are some VI's that can deal with build specs! They return a variant containing the data!
It's the reason I build a variant probe.
Be aware that the build info is not present in th lvproj file of the built executable!

How do I save Icon templates with the Project files?

My project files are stored in a folder, say, "My Documents\LabVIEW\My Project", and this folder, in turn, is saved under (Sub)Version Control. I'd like to include a sub-folder called "Icon Templates" that could contain the icon templates I'm using in this project, but they seem to be "forced" into "My Documents\LabVIEW Data\Icon Templates" (almost the same, but the "owning folder" is different).
Is there any way to change, preferably on a Project-by-Project basis, the default location for Icon Editor templates? I tried to figure this out, and saw that one could change where "3rd Party" templates were stored, but that didn't seem to do anything (maybe because I don't understand the concept of a "3rd Party"?).
An important (to me!) reason to accomplish this is that I want to commit my new icons when I commit the rest of the Project, and have them appear when I checkout the project on another machine (or do an update from the Repository).
Suggestions welcomed ...
Bob Schor

Well, I thought of this as well. I did change Default Data Documents (which seems to be where Icon Editor expects to find its Templates file) to My Documents\LabVIEW (instead of LabVIEW Data), and that worked (sort of). But that still doesn't solve my problem. I have multiple projects -- My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 1, say, and My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 2, and want to have a specific set of icon templates for each stored, say, as Project 1\Icon Templates and Project 2\Icon Templates.
My problem is two-fold. First, there is a setting in Icon Editors, Tools, that seems to be designed to let you designate where your "special" templates are located, which I've set to, for example, My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 1\Icon Templates. However, when using the Icon editor, these templates never appear! It's as though it's still "locked" into the "3rd Party" sub-folder of the parent Icon Templates folder. Second, even if this worked (which it doesn't), is there a way to "embed" this setting as part of Project so that the settings "stay with the Project" (and can thereby be customized)? One important reason to do this is to simplify organizing Projects and folders on disk -- I keep them "together" (use the same structure for both, so a Project is contained, on disk, inside a single set of nested folders), which greatly simplifies and facilitates using Version Control to manage development.
Thanks for the reference. I didn't know about all of the symbolic names. It does appear that they are only used in the VI Search Path entry, correct?

[ID CS6] Having the project build directly into the Plug-ins folder - Xcode

Hello everyone
I'm just starting to develop plugins for InDesign CS6 on Mac OS X. After building the project, I currently move manually the plugin into the Plug-ins folder. It is said in the documentation that for having them directly into the Plugins folder, we need to specify it in the ID_SDK_DIR variable in each Target on Xcode. However, I can't find that variable anywhere and I have no idea what I should do in order to accomplish it.
Thank you in advance for your help, and I'm sorry if it's a very naive question.

Possible to take user to a certain view in the Project Center

Hi All,
Is is possible to take a user via a link to a specific view in the Project Center? If not is it possible to flip the view via code when a user logs into the Project Center?
Thanks!

Hi
Is this Project Server 2010 or 2013 ? In 2010 Have you tried providing permissions for the user on a specific view ?
You may also look at post to understand how the user properties are saved:

Can I hide certain folders from the 'tree view' under Site Manager - Pages?

In the above image, is there a way to hide the circled folders from the listing?
This will help in reducing confusion and possible breakages.

Hi AirborneAgency,
unfortunately there is not, educate the admins of this site not to touch these folders instead. That's what I do with my clients and it works just fine.

ADF DVT: Hide certain series of the Horizontal Stacked Bar

Hello,
I am trying to achieve a 'waterfall chart' effect by using the <dvt:horizontalBarGraph> of type BAR_HORIZ_STACK. I have really 3 series to show with different colors, but i also provided the 4th series to be the 'offset' value - which tells from which position on Y-axis the first colored bar should be shown. In another word, i created a horizontal stacked bar, with 4 series of data, but i want to hide the bar for 1st series, make it completely transparent.
I tried to play with <dvt:series> attributes, but can't find 'visible' or 'transparent' or something like that. And i tried to make the background of the first bar to be the same as the chart background - but that won't give good result: First of all, i want to keep the gradient color effect of the bars, but there's no easy way to keep the background to have the same gradient color in the same areat; Second, due to the same reason i can't make a 3D bar to be transparent over a mono-colored background. Third, i want to see the vertical grid lines which connects to the scale values, so even if i make the bar with plain color with no 3D or gradient effect, i will make the background grid lines disconnected.
Thank you very much for your help!
Feng

Achie,
This is not an issue with the graph as such, but the data issue. Since the value of the data that is being displayed is huge and other datas are relatively very small to occupy the graph area (Ex : 60105 Vs 10).
You may want to try implementing zoomListener and/or zoomScrollListener for the graph to zoom and see the small datas.

Hide certain steps in the execution view

I am trying to modify the TestStand 4.0 simple OI using C# 2005 for the OI and LabVIEW 8.2.1 for the test development.
In many ways, there is more on this "simple" interface than an operator needs to see.
The execution window is too verbose. I would like to not display step types such as flow control, message box, and action. I have not been able to find anything in the TS classes to help me with this besides creating my own output window, which seems is a bit excessive.
Is there a way to implement step filtering?
Thanks

Hi Costello,
Currently, there is not a quick and easy solution to the question posed by John J. However, there has been a specific (as opposed to general) solution found on the forums, but it is done for a simple operator interface in LabVIEW, not in C#. This link will take you to that forum discussion. Once you see how Josh's simple operator interface was done in LabVIEW, you should be able to compare the changes in LabVIEW with the original simple operator interface, and apply those changes to your code in C#. If you do not have LabVIEW installed on your computer, I would then recommend downloading the evaluation version of LabVIEW from here.

Sales Pricing in the Project Builder

I'm using DP81 in order to create quotation (AP sales document type). How can I change the item quantity in it ?
Saving the quotation from DP81 the quantity field is gray ; I'm not allowed to change quotation item quantity. Isn't it?
Thanks
Gabriella

Check at Item level. It may allow to postpone or reject quantity. This functionality is available in Resource Related Billing.
If you postpone Hours, you can Bill them later, but if you reject quantity, say hours, you will not be able to bill them later.
