How can I calculate the delta between 2 cursors on an xy graph

I have an xy graph with two sets of cursors: cursor0 and cursor1. I want to calculate the delta between cursor0 y position and cursor1 y position. I have created a cursor y position property node that gives me the y position of cursor1, but how do I get the y position for cursor0? There does does not seem to be any mechanism for selecting which cursor the property node references.
Thanks
John

There is a more rapid solution : you can read all the cursors attributes in a single property node call, then extract the info you need, as shown in the attached picture.

How can I calculate the total time in java?

Hello!
I need to calculate the total time!
For example I have start time:
          Format formatter1;
          Date date1 = new Date();
          formatter1 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
          String startTime = formatter1.format(date1);
          //startTime = "14:20:40";
And I have finish time:
          Format formatter2;
          Date date2 = new Date();
          formatter2 = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm:ss");
          String finishTime = formatter2.format(date2);
          //finishTime = "08:30:55";
So, after manually calculating, I get total time: "18:10:15"
How can I calculate the total time in java? (Using formatter1 and formatter2 I suppose)
What I need is to print "total 18:10:15"
Thanks!

I did the following but, I think something is wrong here:
I defined before: Date date1 = new Date(); Date date2 = new Date();
And it should be exactly 5 seconds between them.
I found delta between date1 and date2:
Format formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
          long timeInMilliFromStart = date1.getTime() - date2.getTime() ;
          Date date3 = new Date(timeInMilliFromStart);
          String timeInSecFromStart = formatter.format(date3);
and I get always
//timeInSecFromStart = 02:00:05
But it should be exactly 00:00:05.
What can be a problem?Because, like I said, a Date measure an instant in time, not a duration. So when you have 5000 ms, and you turn that into a Date, that means 5 sec. after the epoch, which works out to 1/1/1970 00:00:05.000 GMT.
As I mentioned, if you're not currently in GMT, then you have to set the TZ of the DateFormat to GMT. Right now, it's showing you the time in your TZ. If you included the date in your SimpleDateFormat, you'd see either 1/1/1970 or 12/31/1969, depending on which TZ you're in.
Bottom line: You're trying to use these classes in a way they're not meant for, and while you can get the results you want for a limited set of inputs if you understand what these classes do and how to work with that, it's a brittle approach and comes with all kinds of caveats.

How can I calculate the waveform integral in a defined time interval?

Hi:
I need your help. How can I calculate the waveform integral in a defined time interval? For example: from "0" to "2pi"?!
Thanks.

Hello Clecio,
You might want to try the Integral x(t) VI. The documentation for this VI notes:
Performs the discrete integration of the sampled signal X. Integral x(t) calculates a definite integral. The value of the output array at any value x is the area under the curve of the input array between 0 and x.
You would pass the samples of the waveform that fall between your particular window, then pass 1/number of samples for the d(t) parameter.
Hope that helps.

How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

Okay, I haven't found a way to add an extra space using Find/replace, but you might be able to add some text wrap to the check boxes that will push the text away from them.
Open Find/Replace and click the Object tab.
Click the Specify attributes to find button to the right of the Find Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Stroke and then the Black swatch (assuming the black swatch is applied to the strokes of your check boxes). If there are no other stand-alone objects in your form with a Black stroke, this should be all you need. (If there are Black strokes on your table cells, they will be ignored.)
Click OK
Click the Specify attributes to change button to the right of the Change Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Text Wrap & Other > Text Wrap > Type: > Wrap around bounding box (2nd button from left)
Under Offset, set a Right offset at the distance you'd like to add (I don't know what units you use, but the 3-5 points might work for your purposes...might take some trial-and-error to get it where you want)
Click OK
Click Change All

How can i calculate the average in java

how can i calculate the avergae mark out of two marks for instance in like exam mark out
of two other ones
thanks for considering this message

Average or Mean:
sum_of_N/N
Here N is the number of marks.
sum_of_N is the total sum of n(all marks added together)
public int average(int[] marks) {
int sum;
sum = 0;
for(int i=0;i < marks.length;i++) {
sum=marks[i]+sum; // keep adding to the total
return average = sum/marks.length;
// warning- using an int here can be a pitfall(we could have a decimal outcome).

you can use horizontalGap property on HBox to change the

also use <mx:Spacer/>, but changing the gap on HBox is
probably the cleanest way ;)

How can i tell the differance between chargers

Believe it or not, they are identified right on the chargers themselves. Unfortunately, the font is real small and the print is gray on a white background. It's nearly impossible to read. You need a bright light and a magnifying glass!
After determining which is which, you might wish to put your own paper labels on them.

How can i compute the distance between every two strias

how can i compute the distance between every two strias?The distances between every two strias in an image are almost equal .I have a picture for you in the accessory.there are many trias in all kinds of orientation in an image.fistly,i should find the most consious area,because it is simple to compute . Secondly,To improve precision,i should compute the distance of a group of trias,then conpute its average value.i dont know how to compute .pls teach me,thanks very much!

Text on path: How can I calculate the text length?

Hi
I have a text on path (spline item). Now I need the length of this text and the length of the spline item.
I try to calculate the text length using IWaxLine::GetWidth(), but this is always 0.
- How can I calculate the length of this text?
- How can I calculate the length of the spline item?
Thanks
Hans

It would be interesting if you could describe the purpose of your "length", but I don't have an answer anyway. Would the bounding box be sufficient?
Considering that TOP may be combined with arbitrary spline paths, this could become an exercise in higher math. I haven't yet encountered a function that returns the mathematical length of such a spline.
Otherwise it could be solved if you iterate and sum up the relevant points of the bounding box (ascender, descender, baseline?) of individual glyphs.
Be warned that the whole TOP looks alien, as if it were a transplant from a different program. Experience also shows that documented and actually used interfaces / commands are completely different animals ...
