How to add a new pin to an existing subvi

Hi,
I've been using Labview for sometime now but I still haven't found a convenient way to add a new pin to an existing subvi other than opening up the subvi and adding a control or whatever and then highlighting the code and using create subvi. Then naming this new subvi with the name of the old one. There must be a better way than doing this ??
Thanks.
John

Hi John,
I think you want to have a new connector where you can wire to.
Open the VI, create the control or indicator on the front panel and then make a right click on the icon. Choose show connector pane. Your mouse cursor changes to the wire cursor. Click in the pane on a free connector and then click on the new control/indicator. This way the control/indicator is assoicated with the connector on the connector pane. Keep the rule controls left indicators right side. If there is no more connector left you can choose a new pane.
Normally we use only a limited set of panes for all subVIs to avoid benches in the wires. Most we use the pane with 4 connectors left and 4 connectors right.

  • How to add a new data element for existing table filed(Primary key field)

    Hi Experts,
    How to add a new data element for existing table field(Primary key field)
    For this filed ther is no foreign key relation ships and even check table.
    while activating table it is giving message like below.
    can you help any one to solve this and wil steps to add new dataelement for existing primary key filed of a table.
    Check table (NAMING SPACE/TABLE NAME(EX:/TC/VENDOR)) (username/19.02.10/03:29)           
    Primary key change not permitted for value table /TC/VENDOR
    Check on table  /TC/VENDOR resulted in errors              
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Hi,
    Easiest way is to download the table eg into an Excel table (if possible) or text table. Drop the table from the database. Build your table with the new key field. Build the database table again and fill it.
    You can do it also over the database into a new table. Drop the old one. Build the enhanced one and fill it. Afterwards drop your (temporary) table.
    Maybe there are other ways, but this works.

  • How to add a new field to an existing Generic Search result list?

    Good day,
    I'm new to the concepts of the Generic Search Framework.  I'm attempting to add a new field to an existing result list, and have that new field restricted to a value of "C".  This new field will not be displayed, it is only used to ensure that Invoice Documents with a DocStatus of "C" are returned to the B2B Application.
    From the *modification\generic-searchbackend-config.xml file, the existing
    <h4><property-group name="billing_resultlist_B2B_R3">
      <property name="BILLINGDOC" columnTitle="sbt.sbs.genericsearch.billing.invoice.title" parameterType="rowkey" hyperlink="b2b/documentstatusdetailprepare.do" linkParamClass="com.sap.isa.ui.uiclass.genericsearch.GenericSearchUIDynamicContent" linkParamMethod="buildAttributesForBillingDocumentDetails" linkTargetFrameName="form_input" />

      <property name="SD_DOC_CAT" type="hidden" />
      <property name="OBJECTS_ORIGIN" type="hidden" />
    </property-group>
    </h4>
    I'm trying to better understand how the R/3 tables and columns are specified in the Generic Search Framework.  I know that the R/3 table and field is: VBRK.RFBSK, but in the configuration XML files, I never see this exact information specified.   How it is specified to be a part of the result set?
    After reading the section in the Development and Extension Guide, I also learned about the "allowedValue" definition, and I believe that I will use that to specify the "C" value for the Invoice Document Status field.
    I would greatly appreciate any help.
    Thanks,

  • How to add a new filter in an existing web service method (BIWS - WEBI document)

    Hello Experts, we have 7 web service query's connected to a dashboard. Basically it is one WSDL URL and 7 Get Methods...Web service queries are BIWS (via WEBI document instance). There are filters setup for each of these web service methods.
    Recently there was a request to add 2 new fields to the webi document and also the 2 fields need to be included as filters in the 7 methods. I know there is an option to edit the method, but when i edit the method, i cannot find the 2 new fields in list to set as filters.Can anybody help me understand how to add filters to an existiing web service method? I do not want to delete the method and republish the block as web service.
    Any help will be great and points rewarded.
    Thank you
    Ann

    Hi Ann,
    The reason you are not able to see any of the new columns as a option to select in your web service block is because when you have published that block, they were not present. Add these two new objects in your block and publish it again. You will be prompted for duplication content. Select the highlighted block for duplicate and now you can see the new added objects in the filter option. Update and this will overwrite your published block. Please note, web services do appear to behave weirdly when used with dashboards so I request you to please try it in a separate test report first.
    Hope that helps.

  • How to add a new .me account to existing apple id

    My wife just got an iPad, and we're going to use my apple id to keep purchases on the same account. I created an apple id for her thinking I could just add it to mine, but doesn't work that way. How can I create a new .me email account for her, but keep her under my apple id? I already have an email for myself.
    This is one area where apple has not made things easier. Did you use to be able to add up to 5 email accounts to one apple id? Any help/clarification would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    You can add the following lines of code where-ever  you want to add the table:
        IWDTransparentContainer tr = (IWDTransparentContainer) viewObj.getElement("trans");  // Container where table will be added 
         IWDTable tab = (IWDTable) viewObj.createElement(IWDTable.class ,"Table ID");
         tr.addChild(tab);
         IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo = wdContext.nodeProducts().getNodeInfo();
         tab.bindDataSource(nodeInfo); // datasource of your table.
         // First Column
         IWDTableColumn tc1 = (IWDTableColumn) viewObj.createElement(IWDTableColumn.class, "TC1");
         IWDCaption cap1 = (IWDCaption) viewObj.createElement(IWDCaption.class,"cap1");
         cap1.setText("Column Heading 1"); // name1 of your column
         tc1.setHeader(cap1);
         IWDInputField inp1 = (IWDInputField) viewObj.createElement(IWDInputField.class,"INP1");
         tc1.setTableCellEditor(inp1);
         IWDAttributeInfo attrInfo1 = wdContext.nodeProducts().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivateTEST.IProductsElement.PRODUCT_ID);
         inp1.bindValue(attrInfo1);
         tab.addColumn(tc1);
         // Second Column
         IWDTableColumn tc2 = (IWDTableColumn) viewObj.createElement(IWDTableColumn.class, "TC2");
         IWDCaption cap2 = (IWDCaption) viewObj.createElement(IWDCaption.class,"cap2");
         cap2.setText("Column Heading 2");
         tc2.setHeader(cap2);
         IWDInputField inp2 = (IWDInputField) viewObj.createElement(IWDInputField.class,"INP2");
         tc2.setTableCellEditor(inp2);
         IWDAttributeInfo attrInfo2 = wdContext.nodeProducts().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(IPrivateTEST.IProductsElement.NAME);
         inp2.bindValue(attrInfo2);
         tab.addColumn(tc2);
         // Third Column
         IWDTableColumn tc3 = (IWDTableColumn) viewObj.createElement(IWDTableColumn.class, "TC3");
         IWDCaption cap3 = (IWDCaption) viewObj.createElement(IWDCaption.class,"cap3");

    This itextsharp is third party control, for this issue, I recommended to consult the control provider directly, I think they can give more precise troubleshooting.

  • SQL Server Distributed Partitioning Views how to add a new node online

    We are using distributed partitioning views in SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition for scaling out our data across more than one servers. Now we faced to question how to add a new node (server) into the scale outed db servers system without sending the servers
    down, so our users will be able to use them during the process as well.
    For example we have 4 servers with scaled out data. When we add the new empty server, the CHECKINGs for the partitioning columns should be reorganized. But during the process the partitioning views are not working.
    The High Availability, Always On or Failover Cluster approaches seem are not resolve the problems.
    So my question is how to add new node online?

    Thank you Erland for the reply.
    Yes, it's sounds as possible solution but has some not resolvable nuance in it. Let's say we copied some data from Node5 to new added Node6. Let's assume in Node5 we had data in Table1 with partitioning column's values 100,101,102,103,104,105,106.  Now
    we want to copy part of the rows with partitioning column's values 103,104,105,106 from Node5.Table1 into Node6.Table1. With this Node5 will contain less data and will work more quickly (less IO, less CPU usage etc), and the rest data will be contained on
    Node6. But because of Node5 is already in use, the Node5.Table1 contains CHECK CONSTRAINT = ParttionColumn should be from 100 up to 106. This is check for Node5. The Distributed Partitioning Views are already using the CHECKs to identify what server should
    be used to get data from.
    Now when we copied part of the Node5.Table1 rows to Node6.Table1 the views are still using the 103-106 rows from Node5.Table1 because the CHECK points there. Then we include the newest Node6.Table1 in the distributed partitioning views. OK, but we should
    set some CHECK on new Node6.Table1 which will be used by views. We can't set intersecting checking like Node5 has CHECK 100-106 and Node6 has CHECK 103-106. We also can't edit Node5 check and set it 100-102 untill the data will be removed in it. But this means
    that the data will not be available during the execution. 
    So, any ideas ?

  • How to add a new character set encoding?

    Hello,
    can anybody please explain to me, how to add a new character set encoding to Mac OS Tiger?
    I have two Mac laptops, a new one with Snow Leopard and an older one with Tiger, and on the old one i cannot use or enable anywhere the "Russian (DOS)" character set encoding, which i need to be able to use some old text files.
    On the Snow Leopard, this encoding is present in the list of available encodings of TextWrangler, but not in TIger.
    If i have understood correctly, this is not a problem of TextWrangler, and the same encodings are available systemwide.
    So, the question is: how to add new encodings to Tiger (or to Mac OS in general)?
    Thanks.

    I think possibly that's in the Get Info window of Finder?
    I don't think either that or the input menu have any effect on available encoding choices. Adding languages to system prefs/international/languages can do that, but once you have added Russian there, I don't know of any way to add an additional Russian encoding (there are quite a number of them).
