How to export a symbol as a windows icon?

Is there an easy way to export a LabVIEW symbol as an icon? When putting a VI on the desktop, it would be nice if it had the same symbol as within LabVIEW. Instead, all VIs appear on the desktop with a standard icon. In the past, I copied the symbols to a painting programm, saved it, and converted it by means of shareware programs to a windows icon. My hope is that new LabVIEW versions provide this functionality. Unfortunately, I could not yet find this feature.

Mat,
Similar to a TXT or DOC file, the icon associated with a VI file is linked at the Windows system level.  Therefore, there may be some hack that allows you to change the icon for all VIs but not each VI individually.
A colleague suggested a method that might work for you.  You can save the VIs in a directory somewhere else and make a shortcut to them on the Desktop.  You can then change the icon of these shortcuts.
I hope that works.
Thanks,

  • How can you use symbols in Windows 7 on a IMac 27

    How can you use symbols @$€%£¥ in Windows 7 on a IMac 27 mid 2011?  I tried what was normally done on Windows and got nothing.  Alt plus numbers and nothing happens, what am I missing?

    Frosted Flake,
    Are you referring to an equivalent to the Windows Character Map Application (charmap.exe) that allowed you to see the various characters available in each font, and then give you an ALT-nnn number you could key to use the character you wanted ?
    If so you can use the Special Characters from the Edit menu of most applications. Once you have located the character/symbol you want double click it and it will be entered wherever you cursor is located in your application.

    As you have said you are not a technical person try using Import Export wizard.

  • How-to consolidate bookmarks from 2 different Windows users

    I have a few user names on my Desktop PC. I am running Windows 7 Home. And would like to consolidate my bookmarks lists.
    In other words so each user gets the same bookmarks listing containing the sites of every one of the users put together in an amagamated form without repeats; a sort of an unique Master List of all bookmarks to be installed for every user to have it as soon as they open Firefox.
    I am running Firefox 3.6 17, how do I make that Master List?
    Is that what is described as 'syncing'?
    Thank you kindly

    It will involve a small amount of work.
    The basic process is export the bookmarks to an HTML file, then import the HTML files to one user account. You can then use an add-on to eliminate the duplicates. Finally you can export the master list to a JSON file, and then restore the JSON file to the other computers.
    * To export to an HTML file - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Exporting+bookmarks+to+an+HTML+file
    * To import the HTML files - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Importing+Bookmarks+from+an+HTML+File
    Note: The article refers to selecting "Organize Bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu, if any of the computers are using Firefox 4, you need to select "Show All Bookmarks" instead.
    Once you have amalgamated the bookmarks into one user account, you can use the CheckPlaces add-on to remove any duplicates - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/checkplaces/
    Finally, for details of how to export the bookmarks to a JSON file, and restore that file on the other computers, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Backing+up+and+restoring+bookmarks
    If you want to keep the bookmarks in sync, the Firefox Sync add-on may be of use to you (this is built into Firefox 4) - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-sync/

  • How to Print text in two main windows

    For printing label have created two main windows on a page. calling function write_form In ABAP Program under do loop for two times. 
    but program prints only one window. why is it so? how can i print text on two windows.
    do 2 times.
      COUNT = COUNT + 1.
    loop at itab WHERE DEPTT LT 200.
        CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
          EXPORTING

          EXCEPTIONS
           ELEMENT   = 1
           FUNCTION  = 2
           TYPE      = 3
           UNOPENED  = 4
           UNSTARTED = 5
           WINDOW    = 6
           OTHERS    = 7.
      endloop.
    enddo.
    Please guide.

    Since the information is variable and coming out of the print program, I can assume you want to print many labels but two to a page. Also, any page numbering, etc will need to be updated. This is easily accomplished with SAPScript but a feature people rarely use I believe. Here are the simple steps:
    1) On the Windows Screen: Creat a main window for the size of the label, etc knowing that you will be putting multiple windows on a page. For example, if page size is 8.5 x 11, maybe your window size is 6 X 4 or something similar. You only need one main window defined.
    2) Now go to Page Windows Screen. Add a window MAIN and down at the bottom where it says Window Type put in MAIN. Next to this field is a little field about two characters long. In here put in '01'.
    3) Now Add another window MAIN and down at the bottom put in '02'.
    Hopefully this gives you the idea. I've done this with up to 30 small windows in order to print variable window for labels on label stock such as Avery 8167, etc. 
    Good Luck!

  • How to Export UYVY 4:2:2 8-bit Uncompressed AVI?

    I've been doing a lot of testing in Premiere Pro CS5 (on Windows) but cannot figure out how to export video to a generic 4:2:2 8-bit uncompressed AVI file. Here's some background - I've captured some video to an uncompressed Matrox AVI file (via an MXO2 I/O Device). Now I've done some simple cutting and need to get the video off Premiere's timeline (and into another yet-to-be-determined multimedia application). I don't want to lose any quality - hence my requirement for 4:2:2 uncompressed AVI. Also, the file needs to be a standard/generic AVI that doesn't require any special CODECs installed.
    In Premiere's File > Export > Media window, there seems to be 2 ways of getting uncompressed 4:2:2 AVIs:
    Option 1:
    Format: Uncompressed Microsoft AVI
    Video Codec: UYVY
    Quality: 100
    Width: 720
    Height: 576
    Frame Rate: 25
    Field Type: Upper First
    Aspect: PAL (1.0940)
    Audio Codec: Uncompressed
    Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
    Channels: Stereo
    Sample Type: 16 bit
    Option 2:
    Format: Microsoft AVI
    Video Codec: Uncompressed UYVY 422 8bit
    Quality: (Greyed out at 100)
    Width: 720
    Height: 576
    Frame Rate: 25
    Field Type: Upper First
    Aspect: PAL (1.0940)
    Audio Codec: Uncompressed
    Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
    Channels: Stereo
    Sample Type: 16 bit
    Audio Interleave: 0
    Option 1 is great except that the audio codec detected is "0xfffe extensible wave format" (according to GSpot). I can play the video on practically any machine including something as old as Windows Media Player 9 running on Windows 2000! The audio plays back fine as well in Windows Media Player. However, audio does not play (not detected correctly) in VLC media player, or in Sony Vegas-type software. FYI, the video codec detected (by GSpot)  is "UYVY (packed 4:2:2)".
    Option 2, on the other hand, is quite the contrary. The video does not play in any version of Windows Media Player (regardless of operating system), but the audio plays fine though. The audio codec detected (according to GSpot) is the standard "PCM audio" format and the video codec is again "UYVY (packed 4:2:2)". In VLC media player, both the video and audio play fine. But in other editing software such as Edius, the video is not detected and only the audio is loaded onto the timeline.
    What I would like is a generic 4:2:2 uncompressed AVI file which has audio that works in anything. Is there some setting/parameter that I have missed? Can I customise Option 1 with "PCM audio" rather than "0xfffe extensible wave format"? I want to avoid "Video Codec: None" if at all possible given that the file size will be significantly larger for absolutely no quality gain (I presume this is uncompressed 4:4:4?).
    Any suggestions would be most welcome.

    Hi Jim, I too am confused!
    Why should the video codec for Option 1 be V210? Isn't this reserved for 10-bit video?
    http://www.fourcc.org/yuv.php#V210
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS398C372B-B748-4ef6-BA0D-396D2E360707.ht ml
    I would have thought that the UYVY option was the correct choice for 8-bit video.
    http://www.fourcc.org/yuv.php#UYVY
    Videos exported using Option 2 definately do not play correctly in Windows Media Player - I get no video, just audio. I have tried many different computers running different versions of Windows and Windows Media Player. I'm running Premiere CS5 v5.03 if that makes any difference.
    I don't understand why videos from Option 1 play fine in Windows Media Player even though the systems don't have AJA hardware installed (or any video I/O device) - they are just plain vanilla office PCs

    Otherwise use iPhoto:
