How to create a dialog window with no button that opens along with the main window?

When the main window is open, the dialog window opens up immediately and can be closed by key press. At other times, when the next step, ie: decision, comes to, the another dialog window pops up again and is again closed by key press. Does anyone know how to do? Use the sub-Vi? notification method? occurrence method?
And another thing: how to create a reusable dialog window with no button so that different messages can be sent to it and it can closed by key press. And how to pass the string to the title of the dialog window programmatically?

For your functionality (If I understand it right), nothing needs to be in the event structure. Pressing any key just triggers the event, thus finishing the VI (there is no while loop).
Could you tell me what you mean my "it won't run properly"? Make sure that the front panel of the subVI is closed before starting the main VI. Remember that the subVI is set to "open when called" and "close afterwards if originally closed". So, if you had the panel open already, it won't of course close when finished!
(Actually, the problems is worse when you have the subVI panel open when starting the main VI. you get a catch22 and labVIEW locks up because (1) the subVI is set to dialog and grabs all attention but (2) it has not been
called, thus the event cannot be triggered. So don't do that!!!! As a quick workaround, add the modification shown in the attached image to ensure the panel of the subVI is closed.)

  • I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

    I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    3 - launch iWeb and try again.
    NOTE:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Trouble getting thumbnail to open fully in the main window for editing.

    I updated to 6.0.6 iphoto and I can't find a way to have my thumbnails taking up the whole main window...not the full screen. Previously when I double clicked on a thumbnail the pic opened in main window, taking up all the space in that window. Now it is just a small pic in the main window and I can't see enough detail to edit the pic.

    The files in the Data file are the thumbnails used by iPhoto. The ! you're getting is because iPhoto has lost the link between the library and the original files that will be in the Originals folder.
    I don't think it will work but you can try to rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
    If that doesn't work you'll have to start a new library and import the files in the Originals folder from the old library. Here's how:
    Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
    Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
    In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    Hi!
    I would like to create a DVD menu that offers two languages. So the first page gives two options: Language 1 and Language 2. Then depending on which language you choose, you go to a menu that proposes different videos and a photo slideshow.
    Regardless on which language button you click on initially, you get the same content but in different languages.
    I've been looking at Premiere's templates, which I can certainly customize, but I really don't see how to create the double menu. Does anybody have an idea?
    Put the video with the first language on the timeline followed by the video with the second language.  Use chapter markers so you can have each video as a chapter in the menu.
    I use Premiere Pro, so I can't give more specific directions. Perhaps somebody like ATR will chime in.
    Also, I have another question: can I put videos from different projects in the same DVD with Premiere or must all of the videos that go into the DVD be in the same project?
    Thank you very much!!!

    They must be in the same project.

  • How do I store and save photos in a file so that I can clear the main window

    How do I move and store photos in an album so that I can delete them from the main screen as this is getting very clogged up. Thanks

    You don't "delete them from the main screen". You can increase the size of thumbnails - note the slider on the bottom of the window - and scroll.

  • How to create a task list view in c# that doesn't display the timeline

    How can I create a view for a task list using c# that doesn't display the timeline.  I want to do this using server side code but I can't seem to find a view property that will hide the timeline.  I know how to do it manually through the UI but
    I need to automate it.
    Caroline

    Hi Garoline,
    We can set ViewData of the view to empty to achieve your requirement. The following code snippet for your reference:
    using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://sp2013sps/"))
    using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
    SPList list = web.Lists["TaskList"];
    SPViewCollection allviews = list.Views;
    string viewName = "Test View";
    System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection viewFields = new System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection();
    viewFields.Add("Checkmark");
    viewFields.Add("LinkTitle");
    viewFields.Add("Due Date");
    viewFields.Add("Assigned To");
    string myquery = "<where><gt><fieldref name='ID' /><value type='Counter'>0</value></gt></where>";
    allviews.Add(viewName, viewFields, myquery, 100, true, false);
    SPView view=list.Views[viewName];
    view.ViewData = "";
    view.Update();

  • How to create a text area for a blog that scrolls independent of the webpage.

    it runs a bit like this:
    Main title page...
                            Photography...
                                                 Nature (on which theres a Custom Component which when clicked leads to...)
                                                            20 different custom component states each with different pics, linked via buttons

    ive tried the basics:      Add interaction.. when clicked.. play transition to.. state: Photography
    but to no avail
    any ideas? im at a loss!
    thanks in advance,
    Tom

    Cross component communications are an issue in Flash Catalyst 1.0. Thankfully, in Flash Catalyst 5.5 the team addressed some of those issues.
    The only idea I have for remove the 'return' button from within the component, then it should be able to get you back to the home state.
    Or, you might be able to wait a few weeks for the new version of Flash Catalyst to ship (or you can play with the older preview release on labs.adobe.com)

  • How do I import music from a flash drive that was formatted with a windows PC to my MacBook?

    How do I import music from a flash drive that was formatted with a windows PC to my MacBook - the drive is showing it has over 3GB of info on it but none of the files are showing up in finder?  I had backed up my iTunes library on the flash drive about a year and a half ago before I switched from a dell to a MacBook pro.

    What I found works for me is to make sure iTunes keeps the music files organzied in the iTunes Media folder according to album, artists, etc. and that it copies the music files there when adding them to the library.  That way, if something happens to the library, the raw files can always be re-imported again.

  • How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric f

    Hi,
    Please help me!
    How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric formatted fields (like this 999 999 999,99 with spaces between numbers) and then end user be able to process those fields with Excel tools (sum, etc).
    Thank you.

    From what I have seen Excel can not handle 999 999 999.00. You can use 999999999.00 and then format it as you want in the xls bt you can not have values like 999 999 999.00 coming from publisher output and have functions on the values in Excel
