How do I get decoration​s to move?

Hello all,
I'm pretty new to LabView, and to these forums.  I just finished the Basics 1 and 2 instructor led course.
I've been tasked to create a large, relatively complex UI at work. One of the things I'd like to have in the UI is moving arrow's showing the direction of flow in pipes.
I know there is a way to access the property and invoke nodes of a decoration that is inside a tab control.  I'd like to be a ble to get them to blink at a controlable rate, or move in a spacific direction, or even better, move through a pre-detirmined path.  I appreciate the help, thanks again.

Will be using FPGA's, and PLC's as my DAQ System in my current project ... not really sure how I will integrate it with LabView

Yes, there is a way to move a decoration (see attachment). But from what you are saying there is a better solution. Create a custom slide indicator that has an arrow for the slider image. In the past NI shipped examples that had boxes sliding down a conveyor belt, and even a horse-race game. All you have to do is use the control editor to paste a new image into the slider.

  • I downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?

    hi philly, thanks for getting back to me, especially on such a busy day.
    I don't think that's quite the issue though. I bought an album and it appears in 'my purchases' within the itunes app. Yet, in order to listen to the music, i must use the 'music' app and in this application, there are only three tracks displayed at any one time from my downloaded album.
    I can 'download all' from the 'my purchases' section but that still doesn't help, it just keeps the last three tracks downloaded in the music app.
    I have the 'icloud' enabled and wondered if it had anything to do with that.
    i have successfully downloaded another full album totally into the music app, but this first album is causing me problems.

    Read another post in the forum about this and it appears this app also installs a profile with a proxy service that you will have to try and delete as well. Check that out.

    Thanks for the help folks, sorry I've been away.
    I'd love help with the problem of why I only one track seems to accept clips to play. When I drag them to other tracks or create a track by dragging the clips are grayed out and won't play, but if I drag them to the one track where they're blue they play.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.

  • I created a trailer. I converted it to a project. How  do I get it into my movie?

    I created a trailer. I converted it to a project. How do I get it into my movie project?

    Do you want to ADD it to an existing Project? If so, then you can just Copy/Paste the trailer project onto an existing project. Otherwise, just Share(export as  a QT vid) and import it back into iMovie to add to your other movie. Hope this helps.
    p.s. did you finalize the trailer project?

    Thanks but I think it's more of a setting thing.
    Worked for years in 9 and know my the key commands. Just takes up  lot of extra time. I know there must be a solution just can't find it myself.
    Thanks again.
    Oh, I see…….when I want something like this to happen I would just engage the >Go To Start<  command (0 on the numeric keyboard in my case) and the play head will position at the beginning of a cycle area (if one is active of course)!
    Hope this helps a bit……..

  • How do I get my just made movie from iMac to iTunes?

    How do I get my just made movie from iMac to iTunes?

    Hello MWWWB,
    Unlike iPhoto, Photoshop is only an editor. It does not store or organize images. In iPhoto preferences, you can choose Photoshop as an editor. You will then get a choice when you double click on an iPhoto thumbnail to use iPhoto or Photoshop to make edits. But Photoshop does not have a library to store images like iPhoto.
    You may want to use Adobe Bridge or Lightroom to help name and organize your pictures. You can Export your iPhoto Library to a folder and manage the exported images there.
    Personally, I hate the arcane manner iPhoto stores and organizes images. I use it only for photos from my iPhone.

  • How on can get the plaback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Hi folks,
    I am not able to play the .mov files created by Red camera so..
    how one can get the playback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Well, one typically doesn't edit with any of the proxy-files the RED camera produces.  You need to convert the RED footage to ProRes.  Log and Transfer can do this, if you download and install the RED Log and Transfer plugin.  Or you might need to use RED software to convert the footage to ProRes.  But those Red proxy files won't import via log and transfer, and are NOT editable in FCP.  Gotta convert to ProRes.

  • How can I get my own home movies into the Video app in iOS 5

    How can I get my own home movies to be visible in the Video app in iOS 5.
    where do I place them and what format does iPhone want it to be in?
    thanks

    Thanks for this info Johnathan, it answers part of my question about format.
    I also want the videos I'm transfering to be visible in the "Video" app on my iPhone (I dont have an iPad, Yet. )
    Right now, in order to see my videos I have to share iPhoto albums/etc.. from within iTunes. this mixes them up within the "Photo" app. Don't get me wrong, that is great, at least I can see them there in an album I made for "Home Movies". but I would like to know if there is a way to make them visible to the "Video" app which has catagories like "Podcast" & "Music Videos".
    I'd lke to add a "Home Movies" catagory there and
    Has anyone out there done this?
    Ance again, thanks for the info

  • How do I get a refund for movies I just purchased?

    how do I get a refund for movies I just purchased?

    Unless the movies are defective, you probably cannot get a refund, since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    It's possible they'll make an exception for you. If the movies are defective in some way, your chances of a refund or replacement are good.
    Good luck.

  • How do I get "Digital Copies" of movies onto my iPad2?

    I am having troble syncing my digital movie library from iTunes to my new iPad2.  I have downloaded iTunes versions of the movies directly from the website as required in the DVD insert and activated them with the appropritate activation codes, and they play just fine in my iTunes on my laptop, but when I try to sync them to my iPad2 they are not showing up.  Any tips for getting this to work?

    All of the sudden, my itunes digital copy movies are on the iPad (were not before upgrading), and there is no button to delete them.  They are not set to sync through iTunes, and i cannot get rid of them.
    Are you sure they are on the device?  Sounds like they are just in iCloud. Do they have a cloud icon next to them?  If they do they aren't on your device and as such not taking up space.  If you don;t want to see them you can go to Settings->Videos->Show All Videos and turn it off. This will hide all your iCloud movies from the videos App. but again they aren't really on your device.

    Lastly, with the new Video app, how can i get it to list the name of the movie on the listing screen under the picture?  I have to tap a movie to find out what it is.  I NEED to be able to see the movie names without having to touch each one individually.
    Thanks.
    Unfortunately that's not something you can change. To see the titles you need to tap on the movie. I guess Apple assumes the cover art already has the name so there is no need to repeat it.

  • How do you get .gif images to move?

    I know when you take pictures in photo booth you can export it to your iChat account to make it a little animation. But how do i get the .gif images i dragged & dropped from the web to move? I open Preview to view the .gif but it just gives me all the frames of the picture and not really an animation. Can anyone help me make them move?

    I presume you want to have an animated buddy icon?
    In case you have leopard installed;
    1. Select the 4 photo (burst) button in Photo Booth.
    2. Look: 1.straight into the camera and after the flash look 2.left, 3.right an up.
    3. Select the miniature in the photo booth picture bar, if you like it: click on the iChat icon.
    4. Open iChat>preferences>general>tick the box "show animated buddy icons".
    You have an animated buddy icon and you can see your buddy's animations as well, in case they have one.
