How to control the attribute of sub VI?

I'm a newbie.
I want to make a dialog box sub-VI which runs allways on top but the
callers( parent-VI's) control be still active.
Setting the windows option term as a dialog box lets the sub-VI be always on
top but disables all the control of the parent VI.
Any one can help?

If you are only striving for appearance, you can do this by:
in VI setup (right click on the icon to get there),
under execution options select "show front panel when called"
under window options uncheck "allow user to control window", "allow
user to resize window", etc.
as long as you don't call another VI with a front panel that shows when
called, the VI will remain on top, but will not function as a dialog box, so
things will continue to run... the downside of this is that the user can
use "alt-tab" and other key combinations to make the window move off "the
top", but they have to make an effort to do it....

How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in af:query

Hi,
How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in <af:query>?
Say i have 20 fields in my table and i created a view criteria with 2 fields. It would work perfectly in Basic mode. But in the Advanced mode all other fields selection is possible on clicking the ADD Fields button. I did not want the client to make a search with all 20 fields. Only 10 fields are to be listed in the Advanced Mode even though there are 20 fields in my table.
How do i control the list of fields in ADDFields button?
Any ideas?
KR

You can uncheck the Querable property of the attributes which you need not show up in the Advanced Mode (but they will not show up in other modes too !) or programatically set the same as mentioned here -
http://adfcodebits.blogspot.com/2010/11/bit-27-setting-view-object-attributes.htmlAlso you can hide the AddFields button as suggested here - http://www.notjustjava.com/2011/12/cool-tips-to-showhide-components-of-the-query-control-of-adf/

How to control the canvas of the ADF Read-Only Form

Hi
Could you give an idea of how to control the canvas of the fields in ADF Read-Only form. My requirements are as follows
1) ALL the labels has to left justified irrelevant of their length
2) ALL the values also has to left justified and should be wrapped if it exceeds some length.
3) I want to show the results in more than one column with proper alignment as mentioned above.
Thanks in advance.
Sivaji.......

Sivaji,
There is a "rendered" attribute on the af:table component. You can write EL to pragmatically control the evaluated value of expression to set the visibility.
Assuming you are using BC for your middle layer you can do something like the following:
<af:table ...
rendered = #{YourDetailViewObject.somestring.inputValue != null}
..>

How to Control the width of the Filter row in Table View

Hi !
I have a Table View with filter='application'. The filter works fine but I am not able to control the width of the columns of the tableview .
On filtering, if there are not items in the table view the columns shrink to the minum width....and it looks very odd.
Can you help me how to control the width of the Filter-Row in Table Veiw.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

Hi Raja,
"FIXEDCOLUMN" did not help in the width of the column, but it just showed all the rows merged in the column.
I have a cloumn called "COUNTRY" and its width is set to "20". The Filter of the column "COUNTRY" is a dropdownlist whos value is update with new values.
On filtering if there is any row visible then the column width is adjusted to the maxmimum length of the dropdownlist ( this is because of the "EDIT" attribute in column definition ). But if there is no rows visiblel for the selected filter value then the filter row shrinks to the width = "20" and the dropdownlist is not visible completely.
Need to know how to control the width of the FILTER column.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Bindiya

How to get the attribute value of an XML file??

How to get the attribute value of an XML file??
For example, how to get name and age attributes?
<student name="Joe" age="20" />

What are you using to read the XML file??
On the assumption of JDOM - www.jdom.org. Something along the lines of:SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder(true);
Document doc = builder.build(filename);
Element root = doc.getRootElement();
List children = root.getChildren();
Element thisElement = (Element)children.get(n);
String name = thisElement.getAttributeValue("name")
try
int age = Integer.parseInt(thisElement.getAttributeValue("age"));

How to control the measure based on the related dimension.

Hi Experts,
In order to improve performance, I have created three kinds of time tables in DB,such as Year .Month, Day.
Then import them into the physical layer in RPD, and combine them into one dimension in BMM.
Actually, it has three level fact related with three time tables,so they are also dragged into one fact in BMM,and one column will be corresponding with three column derived from different Fact table in physical layer.
So I want to know how to control the measure based on the related dimension.
For example:
when users drag the Year,Sales column, it will come from Year Dimension and Year Fact Table.
when users drag the Month,Sales column, it will come from Month Dimension and Month Fact Table.
when users drag the Day,Sales column, it will come from Day Dimension and Day Fact Table.

Hi,
Create a dimension Hierarchy, with Year >> Month >> Day Levels and
Next Double click on Year Table LTS >> click on Ocntetnt Tab >> set as Year
same way for Month LTS and Day LTS.
So now when you select year column then server canknow which LTS to hit and Hits Year LTS.

Thanks.

How to control the size of live data in Coherence?

How to control the size of live data in Coherence?
See the following statement:
Pause times increase as the amount of live data in the heap increases. We recommend not exceeding 70% live data in your heap. This includes primary data, backup data, indexes, and application data.
--Excerpted from http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/Best+Practices

In any Java program, it is good practice to make sure your live objects leave some room in the heap for "scratch space." Without this, you will spend too much time in GC, and, in the worst cases, run out of memory. In the general case, you can see how much live data your application requires by looking at the heap used after a full GC's. For Coherence, you should ensure that live data, as you say, is under 70% of the maximum heap size.
Coherence provides you tools to help enforce this policy. [http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/local-scheme] describes how to size limit your cache. By implementing an eviction policy, you can control what happens when a size limit is exceeded.

How could control the scroll events in ALV OO?

Hello experts!
I'm programing a report, inside there is a field that need time of processing. I'm using ALV OO.
I have thought that it could only calculate the field for the lines that visualize.
How could control the scroll events to calculate the field of the visualized lines?
I'm using CL_SALV_TABLE class and cl_salv_events_table to control the events, but there aren't any event to control the scroll.
best regards!

Hi Sriram,
I did view the information that you was attaching, but this don't resolve my problem. With methods get_scroll_info_via_id and set_scroll_info_via_id, we can get and put information of selection and view rows in the screen but we don't control when the user click in the scroll for advance or to back down a page.
I would like to refresh the data in ALV when the user view news rows.
I want your genial ideas.
Best regards!

How to control the size of SVG images in epub files?

There is unfortunately no support for SVG files in InDesign.
Most of my images in jpg convertes nicely, but the small ones do not.
Therefore I want to use SVG files which I have created in Illustrator.
But how do I set the size in the epub file? Right now, whatever I do, they come out too big and I don't know how to control the size.
Is there a program, like Sigil or other, that can place the image for me - I'm no html wizard you see....

I need to create a +/- 9 volt square wave with period of 20us using a D/A card (Not NI card). I can write command to the card using outport provide by Labview. Right now, I can generate square wave with 4ms period which is limited by the resolution of the wait until next ms icon I used inside the for loop.

How to pass the value from Sub report to main report

I have un report(mainreport) within a subreport(subreport).
With reporting services, how to pass the value from Sub report to main report?
thanks

Hi Alebet,
With reporting services to pass values from sub report in to main report is not supported directly.
But there are some workarounds through which you can get this .
There are two ways to get this.
1- Put your sub report query into some table. i mean to say through the subreport query get some temporary table.
2- Using this temporary tables data write some Scala function in the data base.
3- Now in your main report query return this scala function as a column.
4- Extract the column value where ever you want in your main report which is getting calculated from the subreport query. so you will be getting the values returned from the subreport in the main report.
This will definitely work fine as i have done some report in this way.
Another way of doing is that
1- prepare another data set with the same query as in sub report in the data tab.
2- then refer this 2nd dataset in your main report .
But better way will be the top one.
Anyway please let me know if you get the solution.
Thanks
Mahasweta
