How can I show and hide an image or a decoration on the front panel during execution of the vi?

Hello,
I've made a user interface with a little grafic description.
That description should change depending on user actions, e.g. if the user switches a button, some lines should disappear and some other lines should appear.
I thought some decorations could be shown and hidden via something like a property node, but that is not possible. Images can also not be hidden during execution of the program.
Is there any posibility to change a grafic user interface?

Thanks to Tim for drawing what I suggested as option while I had some real work to do.
There is a trick of overcoming the index problem that was presented/devloped in the forum in the last month's: 
You can place the decoration inside a cluster, so you can use the lable of the cluster to adress the decoration you want. The data type of the cluster doesn't mather for this, so you will hide the control/indicator. And you colour the cluster transparent (hint: right click with the coloring tool and use space to toggle).

  • How can I show or hide an image based on screen size in CS6?

    I have a web site built using Dreamweaver CS6. I used the fluid grid layout to have different views for each of the 3 types - phone, tablet, desktop. It works well, resizes as it should. I would like to be able to show an image in the desktop version but not the mobile version. How could I do that? I can see in the .css file that different size screens can have their own different settings. Is there code I could add that would hide/show and image based on the users viewport on the same page? Let's say I have a div tag named picture. How could I add a parameter to the picture div tag in the style sheet that would hide the image if it was mobile?
    thanks,
    Marilyn

    Insert image into a container div.
    Desktop CSS:
    #divName {
    height: xxxpx
    width: xxxpx
    Tablet & Mobile CSS:
    #divName {display:none}

    Hi,
    You can try a package named: JTwain, which is available at http://asprise.com/product/jtwain.
    JTwain supports all kinds of digital cameras and scanners. You can use Java to access, contorl digital cameras and scanners, and of course, to acquire images with flexible settings.
    The developers' guide is available @ http://asprise.com/product/jtwain/devGuide.php
    In the simplest case, one line of Java code can solve your problem.
    Good luck!

  • HT1296 How can I capture and save an image on my screen for later retrieval

    How can I capture and save an image on my iPad screen for later retrieval, perhaps on my Laptop (Windows 7)?
    Is there a way to copy the image to a storage device?
    Thanks, Don.

    Its easy to take an iPad screenshot. Press & release the Home and the Power buttons quickly at the same time. I have trouble with that so I press & hold the Home button and then very quickly press and release the Power button. Your screenshot is stored in the Camera Roll of the Photos app. Probably the easiest way to get it to your PC is to be using iCloud, or email it to your PC. There are also some wireless sync apps in the iTunes app store that let you send photos from the iPad to a Mac or PC. I use PhotoSync.

  • How can I show all of my keywords in iPhoto.  there seems to be a limit on the number that can be used.

    How can I show all of the keywords used in iPhoto.  There seems to be alimit on how many can be displayed.

    When I click the "Edit Keywords" button, I get a list of all keywords. I just added several hundred random keywords, and they are all visible, when I scroll the list in "Edit Keywords" view.
    Have you the scroll bars hidden? You can enable the scroll bars in the System Preferences > General tab:   enable "Show Scroll bars - always".

  • How do I get the front-panel to pop to the front of the screen?

    I have a program that is reading in some network files. When a certain part of the file has been changed I want to pop up the front panel and blink the changed area. The blinking is easy and I can get the VI to pop to the front of any other running LV stuff (using the IsFrontmost vi property) but I need the vi to pop to the front of the entire screen and whatever else is running (Excel or the such). Any ideas on this? I'm doing the development on LV 6.1 on Win2k.
    Thanks,

    Hi Gary,
    There is one thing I think you may have to do. If the window is minimized than it will try to make it topmost but the minimize will take precedence, so you will see the task bar blink and the OS stays in the active/current window. Try to use the "restore window" vi before trying to make it topmost. That should work.
    Also make sure that, the LV window you are trying to restore and make topmost is not superceded by another LV modal window.
    Thats my take, Let me know if that works, for future reference.
    Good Luck
    Mache
    I've tried putting in the Restore Windoe vi and the results are the same. Both of those functions (seperate or together) result in the window moving to the top of the other LV screens only. If I have Word or explorer or anything else open, that window will stay on top and the task bar flashes. Can I use the "move window to front" vi in my main vi to move my main vi's front panel to the front? If not are there any ways to get around this? My program is mostly running in the background but when there's an important change I need it to move to the front and take precedence for a few seconds.

  • How can I show or hide a subform if one of multiple checkboxes is checked?

    Hi,
    I have 8 check boxes and would like to show a subform if any one of the check boxes is checked and hide this subform when the check box is unchecked. How can I do that?
    The action builder didn't work very well.
    Thanks
    Sou

    Hi,
    Can we assume that all the checkboxes are in the same subform and they have the default values for on and off (that is 1 and 0).
    If so try the following JavaScript in the calculate event of the subform containing the checkboxes;
    var checkBoxes = this.resolveNodes('#field.[ui.oneOfChild.className=="checkButton" and $ == 1]');
    Subform2.presence = (checkBoxes.length > 0) ? "visible" : "hidden";
    The first line gets a list of all the child fields that are checkboxes and have a value of 1 (or on).
    The next line sets the presence of the subform (which I am calling Subform2) to visible if there is one or more set to true)
    Regards

    any help would be most appreciated as i have been trying for the last 4 hours
    margaret

    Copy and paste? What app are you using?
    When you tap on an image and select copy that usually copies the URL of the image.
    Save image copies the image to your Camera Roll.
    Most apps have an Insert choice that inserts an image from your Camera Roll into the document you are working on.
    But if you tell us which app you are using, we should be able to provide more exact info on how to get done what you want.

  • How do I show and hide a popup message by the program

    Hi,
    I've the following problem. Sometime the program must wait to open a seriel port. On slow machines, this could take some seconds.
    During this time I'll display a popup message with the message "please, be patient....".
    After the port is open, the message should be hide by the program.
    JOptionPane could be good, but without a "OK" button. Everthing should be controlled by the program.
    I would implement the Runnable interface for the showing of the popup message.
    Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
    Hans

    You can use a JDialog... this will act like JOptionPane, but you can put on it whatever components you like... so no OK button!
    For example:
    JDialog dialog = new JDialog(parentFrame);
    dialog.add(new JLabel("Please be patient", BorderLayout.CENTER);
    dialog.pack();
    dialog.setLocation(100,100);
    dialog.setVisible(true);
    dialog.setVisible(false);
