Image won't use full width of page in Standard Report

Using LabVIEW 2012 in both Windows XP and Win7
Specifically, I'm trying to use a cluster control with strings and numerics for a generic report page. I stuff the strings and numerics with the info that's needed to create the desired page content.
I am creating a standard report. The use of Word or Excel is not considered due to compatibility issues when either NI or Microsoft release version upgrades.
I have tried setting the report margins as well as leaving them at default; the results are the same.
I set the header text and footer text to indicate where the report generation function believes the margins to be. Both header and footer honor the margin settings and appear on the report page as they are expected.
When I "append control image to report" using the reference to the cluster control, the resulting image is 6.2" wide and hugs the left margin regardless of what size the control actually is. If the control is widened, it is rescaled to 6.2" wide. I tried using picture and array controls; results are the same. I tried using the "append front panel image to report"; same results. The "Alignment" input seems to have no effect. The issue seems to be with the way images are handled in the report generation.
Oddly enough, the height seems to behave quite normally. If the object is too large in height, it is simply truncated at the bottom margin.
I tried using landscape orientation which functionally exhibits the same issue; object hangs on left margin and will not fill the width of the page.
I tried HTML which centers the image on the page but doesn't honor margins and prints info at top and bottom that I can't get rid of.
I contacted NI support and generated an active support question reference# 7369484. So far, no solution.
Any help would be appreciated!

Similar problem using LV2011. I have to print labels on a 100x70 mm paper without borders. No chance to scale the control image to fit.
Calculating the size of the initial picture (480x360 pixels) scaled at 96 DPI would result in a size of 127x95 mm.
Actually the height printed is exactly this, but the width shrinked to about 45-50 mm.
A part of the solution might be to create an image (use 'create/invoke node/get image') and send this to the printer (how to do this?). Actually the HTML report creates an 96 DPI image together with the html page.
In my case I should create an image of at least 150 DPI (300 or 600 DPI prefered). But there are no options in either the 'get image' or append control image to standard report to set the resolution.
Bad thing!

How can I get a header image to span full width of page?

Hi All
I have tried just about every thing to get this image to span the full width of the page, its fine in design mode but when I view it in preview its centred with white space either side.

Hi Brad
Thanks for your reply, I have treied that also with similar results.

How do I create a web mock-up using Full Width Photo's

Greetings & Help!
I'm trying to create a full width photo layout using
Fireworks CS3 & Dreamwaver CS3 without the photo's being tall.
Exactly as the following websites - which all seem to be
using the same size of photo or very close to it.
This site is static with full width photos that are not tall.
http://www.jenniferhandyproperties.com/selling
This site is static for the most part and full width photos
that are not tall
http://www.gnvpartners.com/web/
This site is Flash with full width photos that are not tall.
expodesigncenter
I would love to create a flash site just like expo but at
this point I would settle for a static photo with the same size
being the same on each page.
Also I would like my site to be a liquid layout so the photo
and everything else (text, Links etc) on the page flows correctly.
The problem...
I'm trying to use photo's from Istockphoto.com. The size of
the photo's they offer are
425 x 282 px (5.9" x 3.9")
849 x 565 px (11.8" x 7.8")
1698 x 1131 px (5.7" x 3.8")
I'm selecting horizontal photo's. I do not know how to match
the same width, height and appearence as the websites I mentioned
above.
If I choose a photo that fits the width then the length is
too long. Also if I choose a large photo and have to crop it then
most of the detail of the photo is lost.
I'm attempting to create a mock-up for my web in Fireworks
CS3 and after search Adobe and www I came across the mock up should
be 1004px which would end up being 1024 with vertical scroll bar
and small margins.
I also have Photoshop & Flash CS3 but should mention (if
you haven't already guess it by now) I am a rookie when it comes to
creating a website.
So if you can offer a solution in "Non-Tech Terms" I would
appreciate it.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Hi Pixlor -
I'll do my best to answer your questions - within my ability
- which isn't much.
As far as "Tile" the photo - I've checked out the responces
I've received from other's on this post - and other posts - and on
each page for the "masthead" I just want one photo to be the same
size of the page width wize - and the height of the photo should
not be tall from the top of the masthead to the bottom of the
masthead. As far as what I mean by "not being Tall" - see next
comment...
I'm just attempting to duplicate exactly (or very close to
it) the same appearence and dimensions - "Width = side-to-side,
Tall = Height - as the websites I mentioned in my first post here.
Also if you check out Joey's website (who responded to my
post as well) basicly he has created the same thing that I'm
shooting for except he is using graphics. I have to use photos in
my masthead which will be of kitchen cabinetry or construction
photo's and must highlight every detail down to the shine of the
kitchen cabinets knobs - or close to it.
Due to this I can not have the photos of the masthead "tile"
from "width-to-width or top-to-bottom because the deatils in the
photo can not repeat or multiply to completely fill the masthead
head. Otherwize if I choose a photo of kitchen cabinetry which
highlights a kitchen sink - and if I tile this photo - from what
I'm learning from everyones responce thus far - I'll end up with
several of the same kitchen sinks and cabinets in the same photo.
I must stress I could be wrong in what I described directly
above due to my lack of tech knowledge! If this post was about a
2x4 or 2x6 or Green Building or what have you, It would be heck of
alot easier for me to completely understand what you pro's are
trying to help me with - which I completely appreaciate. Expecially
someone like you who owns a monitor the size of one of my work
trucks!
Which brings me to your next question...
Liquid layout -
Yes I am trying to end up with a liquid layout for my website
using Dreamweaver CS3. Hopefully using one of the pre-built liquid
layouts in Dreamweaver and modify it within my ability.
The main reason why I would like to create a liquid layout is
because most others construction firms in my industry - and in my
target market - have websites that completely consume a viewers
monitor - viewport - screen real estate - (i'm trying to learn your
tech terms) no matter what size viewport a viewer has, or how the
viewer resizes theirs.
I've also heard that a "Min & Max" code can be included
in a liquid layout so that it would limit the "liquidness" of the
layout so "Text Lines" won't stretch too long making it difficult
to read when a viewport size extends - and when the viewport shinks
- all the elements (or Div's) will reflow an maintain order and
visability.
1004 -
The only reason why I mentioned designing the Fireworks CS3
mock-up at a 1004 is because someone else mentioned they design
their mock-ups at a "Canvas Size" of 1004. Then most browsers
automaticly inlclude a scroll bar if the vertical content exceeds
below "The Fold". Thus with the addition of the automatic scroll
bar the page now becomes 1024 - according to this person.
She went on to mention according to "recent studies" - 56% of
viewers have 1024 x 768 and most computer manufacturs shipp them
this way. Then the following stats... 22% at 800 x 600, then 13% at
1280 x 1024, then 3% at 1152 x 864, then 1% at 1580 x 1129. She
also mentions most avearge viewers (every day Dick & Jane, Bob
& Besty) (excluding computer tech folks like yourself) - do not
resize - bother with - or know how to resize their viewport.
My personal note on this is most of my target market -
clients - just turn on their computer and surfs the net from
website to website without changing their viewport and when also
asked they "Feel" that a website looks much better - or more
profeshional - when the content completely fills up an entire
viewport.
"Feel - not - Think" -
Keep in mind I choose the word "Feel" & not "Think". In
my target market - Residential Construction - 95% of home
improvement decisions are made my the Woman of the houshold - not
the Man. That being in mind it is a proven stat (and not a sexest
comment) that women base most of their choices or decsions on how
something makes them "Feel". Where as most men make their choice or
decision on how they "Think".
Also most men attempt to keep their women happy and knowing
that if they don't then they will end up in the doghouse - ( not a
fun place to be trust me on this) and in addition most men do not
have much of a clue when it comes to the interior design layout of
a home, matching of paint colors, appliance choices or what have
you.
Wow that was a major side track I took -
Back to 1004 -
It's not that I'm intend in designing the mock-up in
Fireworks at 1004 - I just want to end up wth a liquid layout so
when my site is viewed by "most people" then my site will
completely consume a viewers viewport - or very close to it.
If I need to design the mock-up less then 1004 - or more then
- and still be able to end up with the same end result in a liquid
form - so be it.
I don't know the best way to proceed -
I'm just attempting to learn from others who respond and for
the most part those who have been kind enough and taken the time to
respond seem to be very knowlegeable about my issue at hand.
You might find this hard to believe but I am learning quite a
bit from all of you and I really do appreaciate it.
Well now that this responce is as long as the novel "War
& Peace" - I'll close here.

Full width web page?

I have created and have up and running a great website (www.i-drone.co.uk)that i created with iWeb. However, the webpage is not the full width of the page? is there a way of making use of the full width of the page, without the bars either side?
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can increase the width of the content portion of the page with the Inspector/Page/Layout pane:
Click to view full size
However, the theme that you choose, Darkroom, does not scale up to larger widths because it uses a fixed width image for the spotlighted area in the center.
You could simulate that theme, except for the spotlight but taking a screenshot of the textured area and using that file for the page background. Or make the page background transparent or none and use the textured file for the browser background.

Viewsonic 2431wm does not use full width in 1920x1080 mode

HI Folks,
I've recently replaced a failed Viewsonic 2433wm monitor with a 2431wm. My Mac Pro 5,1 has the 1GB Radeon HD5770 video HBA and is a 2 monitor configuration. The previous pair of 2433wm's functioned wonderfully at the 1920x1080@60Hz settings.
However, with the new 2431wm attached, the displayed image does not use the full width of the screen. I've tried manually adjusting the horizontal settings and using the monitor's Auto Image Adjust with no change. I've also installed the latest drivers from the Viewsonic site.
For grins, I borrowed a colleague's 2433wm and it immediately worked as expected with no changes on the monitor or my Mac Pro. Also, setting the 2431wm's resolution to 1680x1024 uses the entire screen width.
Does anyone have tips about the 2431wm or manual OS X settings that could resolve this?
Thanks,
Tim

When using a CRT, the phosphor is painted on the display much more widely. The maximum resolutions used are always far less than the maximum the display could produce IF we were to tune it to absolutely perfectly hit every Phosphor dot. But if you did this, you would have to adjust your display ever time a new picture went up on it.
An LCD display does not wave an electron gun around and light up some phosphor dots. The dots are addressed directly. Optimum resolution is EXACTLY every dot that the manufacturer placed on the glass -- no more, no less.
If you chose any resolution other than the optimum resolution, the display may try to approximate what you asked for and fill the display -- or may not. If it does fill the screen, it will be a poor imitation of the best picture you can possibly get from the display.
My recommendation: Find out what is the optimum or recommended resolution is for your specific display, set your display to that resolution, and do not change it.

MBP won't use full external display

Hello,
I got home today, turned on my computer while connected to an external monitor and all of a sudden, my MBP (13", late 2011) won't use the whole display. Instead the screen is squashed and i got two black gaps on either side of the monitor. The resolution is set to 1920*1080 as always, so that isn't the problem. Also, when I set the monitor to all other resolutions, it stretches all the way out, it's only on 1080 it doesn't work even though 1920*1080 should fill out the whole screen, while some of the other resolutions shouldn't. I have the displays set to extend, so the MBP's display is set to 1280*800 as usually, and everything functions perfectly on both displays except for the gaps.
I've tried closing the lid and playing around with the external monitor itself, but I get the same results. I've also reset the PRAM and SMC; same thing.
I can also add that on the Windows part (Boot Camp installed) it just plain won't recognize the external display at all. Everything worked this morning...
Thanks in advance!

Wow, excuse me, figured it didn't matter much, given that is has worked flawlessly before. Just figured it was a software issue. Anywho, external monitor is an Acer P246H 24" I believe.
I have tried the detect displays too, and I've also tried and see whether it was the monitor tuning in weirdly on the resolution, but it doesn't even have an option to squash the image, only move it side to side.
Since it is a plug and play screen, and it has worked before, I figure it will work again, if there is someway to reset the drivers and make the computer reset it's external display settings so that it will just recognize the display as a new one the next time it is plugged in? The WIndows and OS X problem happened on the exact same time though (after i rebooted from Windows into OS X after not being able to connect, the resolution problem came).

Image won't display at top of page: Firefox, Opera

http://www.mariagrist.net/dev/TCT/
It's the logo at the top left I am looking at. The image is
inside a td
which has a valign=top attribute.
Image correctly displays flush to top of page in Internet
Explorer, but
there is a white gap in both IE and Opera.

Change this -
<td valign="top"><p><img
src="images/logo-top-left.gif" alt="logo-top-left"
width="162" height="168"></p></td>
to this -
<td valign="top"><img
src="images/logo-top-left.gif" alt="logo-top-left"
width="162" height="168"></td>

Table needs to fit full width of page

I want to insert a table that is the full width of the page and all cells equal sized. Without dragging each column wider one by one and trying to equal them out manually, is there a quick setting I can choose in the Inspector or elsewhere to just make the table fill the page width? This must be one of the most basic standard options for tables along with "Fit to contents".

Never mind. Now after struggling with it for several minutes, selecting within the table and clicking outside the table, it suddenly woke up and shows me a resize box on the right. Funny how it didn't appear without a struggle. I have this same issue with text boxes in Keynote and I still haven't gotten it to respond consistently either.

Problem using CASE within SELECT in a standard REPORT region

I'm trying to do a CASE-oriented SELECT within a standard REPORT region and the parser is rejecting the SQL statement.
The code I'm using is the following:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN INSTR(citation, '@') > 0 THEN
SUBSTR(citation, 1, INSTR(citation, '@')-1)
|| ':'
|| SUBSTR(citation, INSTR(citation, '@')+1,
LENGTH(citation) - INSTR(citation, '@'))
ELSE citation
END
FROM citation
WHERE obj_table_cd = 'FI'
AND obj_id = :P41_FIND_ID
ORDER BY CITATION
The parser says the (case .... ) is invalid, use column alias. The query works correctly when using SQL_Developer and SQL*PLUS.
My intention is to replace an '@' with ':' within the citation text. The standard citation format should have a colon, but this causes problems with AppExpress, hence the substitution situation.
Any insights on this or on another way to achieve the purpose?
Thanks,
George

George,
You should give a column alias after the END of the case statement:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN INSTR(citation, '@') > 0 THEN
SUBSTR(citation, 1, INSTR(citation, '@')-1)
|| ':'
|| SUBSTR(citation, INSTR(citation, '@')+1,
LENGTH(citation) - INSTR(citation, '@'))
ELSE citation
END citation_col
FROM citation
WHERE obj_table_cd = 'FI'
AND obj_id = :P41_FIND_ID
ORDER BY CITATIONSam

Using the latest version of SAP standard reports

After trouble shooting several problems in Report Painter reports, I noticed we are not using the most updated version of SAP delivered reports. We upgraded from 46c to ECC6 last year. Is there some regeneration (of report groups) procedures we were supposed to do to bring standard reports in line during upgrade?
What is the best way to review thel version of all reports currently used?
What about those reports created from coping SAP standard reports, if standard reports get updated, how can the copied report be updated as well?
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

No answer, not yet resolved but I close this message for now.

What is the USE for a TEST PAGE/Printer Status REPORT

Have you read post or forums and a tech wants you to see if you can print a test page or Printer status report?
This is a test to make sure the printer's function is working correctly. Sometimes you can't print from your printer and everything is stuck and you may think it's the printer. If you can print this test page, then most likely it will be a software issue or connection issue.
The information contained in a test page can help diagnose a printer problem or to review information particular to the printer. Test pages can be printed by using the print control panel or the computer.
The print test page function prints a page with several cartridge print patterns and a numbered list containing printer specific information.
I hope this is helpful to the community.

Standard report appended image

Hi,
I'm using XPsp2, LV 2011sp1, standard report, append image VI.
The appended image appears at a low resolution (screen resolution?) when printed. Text is perfect.
If i resize the image to a larger resolution (dpi) it resizes it to fit within the margins but retains the low resolution. The auto-re-sizing results in a distorted image if it is resizes to fit the width, but does not need to resize to fit the height.
Can i increase the resolution of the printed images in the report? -to 150 or 300 dpi so they do not looks so pixelated when printed?
Thanks.

To follow up, the response from an email support request.
"Hi Blue,
Thanks for the information; it was really helpful in understanding your problem further. I've managed to print out the exact same type of response as you've been getting; the larger DPI image just comes out a lot bigger for Standard reports than the smaller DPI image. I also dragged the files into MS Word and saw that the images were resized appropriately. Interestingly enough, I set the type of the report to 'Word' and when printed, the images came out at the appropriate resolution. This means that inside of the MS Office programs, there is some internal compensation for recognition of image DPI scaling that isn't native in the Standard report in LabVIEW.
I also selected to print a 'HTML' implementation of the report. The images were again mismatched in this state.
Q: How do we work around this issue?
A: There are two options I see at this point. We can either try reconfiguring the DPI of the printer that we're printing to, or we can take a copy of the resized image in Word by taking a snap of the screen and then cutting the resized image out. I just tried this out and the resized image that I cut out from a printscreen of MS Word looks just as expected on the report.
I took a look inside the Report Generation VIs that were used for printing and I couldn't find any aspects that we could modify to alter the interpreted DPI of the images. This is because the lower level print functionality is hidden within the higher level LabVIEW Property Nodes and is therefore inaccessable from any Block Diagram code. In this regard, I don't believe that there are any direct features native in LabVIEW that as LabVIEW Users, we will be able to modify. I made a VI to resize the image in LabVIEW and then print the output, however the issue with this is all of the quality in the original image was inevitably lost.
You can head over to the LabVIEW Idea Exchange and post this feature request on the forums and get other LabVIEW Users to Kudos it; the higher the Kudos, the more change of the feature being incorporated into a newer release of the toolkit. I definitely agree that this would be a great feature and I'd be more than happy to contribute.
LabVIEW Idea Exchange -
http://forums.ni.com/t5/ideas/v2/ideaexchangepage/blog-id/labviewideas
I hope that this is okay. If you have any further questions or ideas, please don't hesitate to get back in touch. I want to make sure you're completely satisfied with the solution that we reach.
Kind Regards,
So in summary: No, you cannot adjust the resolution (DPI) at which the Standard Report Generation toolkit processes appended images.... Unless anyone knows better? ...i can not get satisfactory results from either of the suggested work arounds.

IE6 & IE7 page expands to full width when using a component ....

I have created a dreamweaver template which expands using the overflow:visible CSS. The page displays fine when I create a recordset using the dreamweaver tools but when I created a dynamic page using the Developer Toolbox and view it in IE6 or IE7 the page is displayed in full width.

Hi,
I guess this happens because ADDT uses it´s own CSS, which might override your overflow:visible.
All of ADDT´s CSS is located in the "includes/skins" directory BTW

Can the 100% browser width function be used in non-master pages?

Can the 100% browser width function be used in non-master pages? I watched the video about pulling it to the red edges, and did that on some of my parent pages, but when I preview the page in browser, it doesn't work. I can still see my browser edges.
The idea for the website I am designing is to have different full browser width images for different pages, and I'm looking for a way to do that. I would create a different master for each page, but there are more than 20 pages...too many master pages! Thanks!

Hi Lindsey,
The 100% width feature works with rectangles and text frames on both master pages as well as regular pages. It doesn't work with images in either case. A possible workaround would be to use a rectangle with a background image, depending on the nature of your image.
Regards,
Nathan
