How do I access indicators in other windows of an event structure?

Let's say I have an indicator in 'case 1' called ON/OFF. How do I get the status or value of ON/OFF if I'm in case 2?
or - if this seems like a ridiculous question, am I missing some sort of important concept about how event structures work?
thanks

Local variables are certainly an option. Property nodes are another, but both of which are probably the least recommended around here.
You can use shift registers, but then you have to be careful about where you update your indicator. Unless you've got a ton of these that need updating, that's the way I'd go.
Place your indicators outside the event structure and then just make sure you wire everything through every case (otherwise you'll end up with the default value of your indicator's type). See the image... I think it's more clear than my words can be.

How to open pdf document in other window by using java script

Hello All,
I am working in R12 Application.
My jdeveloper version is 10.1.3.3.0.3
I want to open pdf document in other window on clicking the button
for that i have written following code in process request of the controller:
pageContext.putJavaScriptFunction("doFilterSwitch", "function doFilterSwitch(){window.open('/t01/oracle/TEST/inst/apps/TEST_appsdev2/logs/appl/conc/out/545042.pdf'); }");
OAButtonBean moHelp =(OAButtonBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("Download");
moHelp.setOnClick("doFilterSwitch()");
but when i hit download button it gives me the below error:
The webpage cannot be found
HTTP 404
Most likely causes:
There might be a typing error in the address.
If you clicked on a link, it may be out of date.
What you can try:
Retype the address.
Go back to the previous page.
Go to and look for the information you want.
More information
please help me out
Regards,
sheetal

Instead of giving the link in Process form request, give the link directly in Destination URI property of the button and in target property write _blank.
Note : use normal button not submit button

How do I get the reference numbers for cursors in a waveform graph (other than through an event structure)?

I want to control cursors in a waveform graph programmatically. I've tried using the "Cursor list" property, modifying the cursor clusters and writing the results back to the cursor list property, but this only works sporadically. Modifying the cursors by ref number works well, but you have to get the refnumbers from an event structure during a cursor event. Is there any way to get cursor reference numbers aside from through an event structure?
Thanks!

Hi barryinbo,
On the controls pallette, go to refnums> Control refnum>Control. Then right click the refnum and point to select vi server class>Generic > and you will see a cursor there. This will be a "loose typed refnum" but you can right click the refnum to include data type. An alternative is to drag a cursor to the refnum, this will make it strict typed.
Hope this helps

How do i get a boolean indicator to trigger a event structure

I have two parallel loops running, and i need to use a boolean value, one that comes out from an OR gate, to trigger an event in the parallel, event structure loop. I've attached a simplified version of the loop. Is there a way to get this done? I've tried using local variables, value(signaling), etc. and they haven't worked
Solved!

Parallel Loop Trigger.vi ‏10 KB

Here is a revised version of your VI. I modified the mechanical actino of the stop button so it kept it's value until it was read. In addition, I added a delay to your upper loop. Without a delay it was running too fast to actually see the button press. I modifed the event in the the event structure to trigger on a value change of Boolean.
You don't really need the outer loop since it will only run a single time in all instances. On the first execution of that loop it will be sitting in the turn inner loops. Once you exit the two inner loops your outer loop will always exit. Therefore, it serves no purpose.
Your OR in the upper loop is completely uses. It serves no purpose since the result will always be equal to the value of the Stop button.
There are better ways of triggering events. a preferred method would be to use a user event and simply generate the event at the appropriate time. This has the advantage of not requiring additional controls/indicators simply to cause an event to occur.

How to exit from the DO-while loop in the event structure

Hi all
I am just a beginner for Labview
I want to build a loop in the event structure, but when I enter in the loop, it seems the system is dead, and I can't exit the loop.
here I attached a simple sample.
In the sample. when I press the start_calculation button , the calculation start, but the system is dead, and I can't exit calculation loop.
actually, i just want switch the different operation by changing the event action.
anybody has a good idea about it??
thanks so lot

Your problem is that you are trapped inside an event case. It is not a good idea to run extended code inside event cases, else the event structure cannot service other events.
Why don't you use the outer loop for everything? Now things don't step on each others toes. What good is an event structure if it cannot react at all times???

How do i access osx after using windows with boot camp

I just got a new macbook pro and i have never used boot camp. well i loaded windows 7 using boot camp and now I dont know how to get back to osX. Can anyone help?

lathscope,
do you notice a little triangle on the bottom right corner of your screen - near the clock (in Windows)? If you do so, click on it. Shoud appear an option to restart the computer in Mac OS.
Other option is to go to the Control Panel. There is a icon for Bootcamp there.

How do you access folders/files in other users Finder list?

How do you access folders in other users finder list, once you have shared the folder or file

You should be able to open and view the contents of any directories you have access permissions to using FInder, by navigating the directory tree to the folders in question and opening them as you would your own folders. If you know the full path-name of the directory, you can enter it into the Finder navigator opened by Apple-Shift-G; the dialog that pops up uses the same directory listing method as all unix systems, and has tab completion for ease of use. In general, all users have their home directories in /Users/, or you can simply use ~/../<name> to go to the home folder of a user via the parent (..) directory of your home (~) directory. If you are experiencing bugs or errors with this, as opposed to simply not knowing how to do this, please post any details of your experience so that others can help troubleshoot your problems.

How do i access my hard drive?

My flash storage drive is full and I have a vacant 2TB SATA disk, but how do I access it? In Windows PC it was easy to access drives under "My computer," where is the analagous feature on the mac? THANK YOU!

You should reformat the 2TB drive as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) if it's not already, use a program such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, or SuperDuper to clone your existing system to it, confirm that it works, and make a copy on a second drive before deleting the files from the original one.

How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; none of the options I choose work. I also have Microsoft Office (with Word) installed on the Mac as well.

Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

How can I access the window so I can download to adobe and run the file rather than save it

By mistake I put a check mark in the window box to save my downloads to documents. I want to send them directly to adobe so they can be seen. How do I access this window?

hello, you can change that setting in firefox/tools > options > applications - there you can define the default action for the file-type in question (that will probably be '''portable document format (pdf)''' in your case).

I can't Start, Uninstall or Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: Window Installer Service could not be accessed. No other programs have similar problem. Any suggestion what can be done?

I can't Start, Uninstall of Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: "Window Installer Service could not be accessed". No other programs having similar problem. Any suggestions how to fix it?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
