Is it possible to create a GUI displaying foot pressure data?

We are using Labview 8.5 student edition and we have a project where we are monitoring varying pressures on a foot. We are using 4 flexiforce sensors placed on a foot pressure pad that output voltage and are running these voltages into the 4-channel WLS-9219 DAQ. What I am wondering is this:
After browsing the available VI's within labview, is there a way to create a custom one where I display a "foot" on the screen, and as a person applies a force to a particular sensor (or multiple sensors), this "GUI" shows "redness" area denoting a harder pressure, as well as displaying all the values of the load as it varies? I am also wondering if there is a way to have Labview interpret a voltage signal (ex. 300mV) as a force (ex. 30 pounds). Any help or ideas with this is appreciated!!

Thanks for the tips. How exactly do you get the Intensity Graph to appear from underneath a picture pasted into the Front Panel?
Let me tell you exactly what we have and what we're trying to do:
We have sensors that will monitor the load applied to that area of the foot and measure that in volt. We are using four such sensors and want to create a display in LabView where data is sampled at 5 Hz (and thus refreshes that often). We are looking to display real-time voltage or force values, a line graph for each sensor (which we have) and then a seperate display of an entire foot.
Say we have 4 sensors placed in 4 different areas, for example, on the heel, ball, sole, and under the big toe. When a person steps on our sensors, each sensor will read different values. What we want on the Front Panel is a diagram of a foot and a visual representation of the loads being applied to that location, most likely using a color notation.
I looked into Intensity Graphs, and what I found was that they require a "matrix" of values to represent a grid-like area. What we are sort of looking for a "circle" to appear around each sensor location on the foot, and the size of the circle will increase/decrease based on the magnitude of the force being applied. It doesn't have to be a "circle" per se, but a similar effect will do. Any idea how this can be done?

Is it possible to create a custom display type in DIAdem, for example a speedometer type instrument?

As an example I have velocity data which shows a vehicle accelerating from rest to 60 km/h and then travelling at a constant speed. As opposed to displaying this data using a 2D axis system is it possible to create a new speedometer display type to display this information? Maybe this display type already exists but I have not come across it yet? I've been using DIAdem for a few days now. The current version I am using is 11.2. It has been suggested in the past that it was possible to display data using numeric displays etc but I can't seem to find the features in v11.2. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hey Matthew,
I'm sorry for the [extremely] delayed reply - I have been out of the office (and out of the country) for two weeks with extremely limited email access. I've attached the files that I used to create the example you saw in the YouTube video embedded above. Please note that I threw this together pretty quickly for the video, and that it is not "commercial quality." Use this as a proof-of-concept upon which to elaborate to get started.
The parts are:
CAN Synchronization.tdv
This is the DIAdem VIEW Layout that contains the video, map, 2D axis, and embedded user dialog with ActiveX gauge control. Think of this as the "user interface" you see in the video.
Gauge.sud
This is the scriptable user dialog (SUD) box that is embedded in the VIEW Layout described above. It contains the ActiveX control which I have affectionately named "MyGauge."
DisplayCursorCommand.vbs
This is the short script that is designed to react to the event that fires when the cursor is playing in DIAdem VIEW. I have commented all 5-ish lines with their functionality.
In order to register the script so that it fires in reaction to the event when the cursor is playing, I chose to register it as a DIAdem UserCommand (Settings » Options » Extensions » User Commands) and then run the line of code:
View.Events.onCursorChange = "DisplayCursor"
You could do this elsewhere within some other script.
Let me know if you have any questions!

Is it possible to create a shortcut for current time / date with iPhone native apps?

is it possible to create a shortcut to insert the current time / date in a text such as a Note with iPhone (IOS 6) native apps (not a 3rd. party app)?
By "shortcut" I mean a combination of characters, the same as under settings/general/keyboards/shortcuts.

Is it possible to create an Apple Script to import data from a web data feed (RESTful XML/JSON)?

Before I get started looking for a programmer, does anyone know if it will be possible to create a script that will allow Numbers to connect to an external data feed in either XML or JSON? I want to enable some colleagues who use Mac to connect to the same data feed that Excel for Office connects to.. Thanks,

It is definitely not hard to import XML or JSON data via an AppleScript. As an amateur tinkerer, I found a way, for example, to bring in OFX data from my bank (OFX is a flavor of XML) using the XML parser built into System Events, which is AppleScriptable.
How satisfied your colleagues would be with the solution, though, will depend on what you mean by "connect to an external data feed." If you are dealing with datasets in the thousands of rows and need frequent and rapid response, then you may not be happy. In that kind of situation you would need to expect at least a few seconds of wait time every time you "refresh."
If, as in my case, you have only a few hundred rows and don't need to bring the data in every few seconds, then the AppleScript solution is very practical. The programmer could probably goose the performance and make the job easier by using AppleScript as a wrapper for a script in Python or another language that is faster than AppleScript at parsing XML and JSON.

How to create combobox to display more than one columns

I need kind help with the following question. As the combobox includes two pieces--textbox and the combobox list. Then how to create a combo box bean, which is based on table EMP(empno number(6), ename varchar2(40)) records for example, to achieve these features:
1) allow more than one columns to be displayed in its records list--e.g., I need to show these records:
empno (value) ename (label)
103 David M Baker
104 David M Baker
105 Kelly J Volpe
106 Krista F Carpenter
107 Michelle P Silverman
The two 'David M Baker's are different employees, but unfortunately, with the same name.
2) allow combo box list to return the column value 'empno' even though it shows both columns as above. i.e., if user picks the second record above, then the combobox list returns 104 to the textbox in the background, but the 'David M Baker' is displayed on the textbox. Of course the combobox list may return 'David M Baker' if needed when there is only one column in the list as the current standard feature.
3)allow partial match search by typing in some letters. i.e., if user types in the textbox of the combobox letter 'K' or 'k' then the partially matched records
105 Kelly J Volpe
106 Krista F Carpenter
should be automatically displayed in the combobox list, not the whole list as above; then user may double click to choose one of the two or if user continues to type in 'R' or 'r', then the uniquely matched record 'Krista F Carpenter' is displayed in the textbox and the 106 is returned to the textbox.
4) as a bonus if it's doable, allow combobox to return values to different textboxes when its records list has more than one columns.
The reason I need these features is that I am working on the project migrated from Microsoft Access applications to centralized Java version web application. We at beginning promised to users community that Java swing will provide all the GUI user friendly features Microsoft Access has, but now we got stucked--we ate our words and got tons of complains from our users community. This is just the most needed component I posted here. I really hope that Java would add all the default GUI user-friendly features to compete with MS since its Win95 GUI has been accepted as industry standard. And most users are used to it. They claimed that they don't know and don't care what tool you use the newly created application should be more user friendly, not the opposite.
I would be very much appreciated if any one would help me with this item.

Thanks for your comments. I think nobody expects Sun to write everything including special features for its components. But I do think Sun should provide at least those standard user-friendly features for the GUI components because most users have been used to the GUI user-friendly features provided by Win95 and Access/Excel applications. Then this will help us to productively create applications to beat MS applications.
Other wise like me, to get the existing GUI features, existed in old MS Access application, for our migrated Java application, I must re-create the GUI components library first which is a big burden to me at least, for others it might be fun for coding on their own from scratch, but I have to focus on the timing of project.
If you really can pass the request to Sun and push them move a bit, please pass these words: before Sun starts to revise them, please play around window GUI, e.g., Access/Excel applications, then plan what to do, the bottom line is to equally match or better than them in FUNCTIONALITY(Look and feel is not my focus here). Don't ignore the influence of Windows regardless of you hate it or love it, the reality is most users are so familiar with windows GUI features which are accepted as industry standard. Thus the choice is to match or better to beat them. Don't make your car by closing your door, don't assume users will like what you come out in a closed room.

Creating a GUI on a remote device.

I would like to create a GUI on a simple CCD touchscreen.The screen is effectively a dumb terminal that is connected to a pc using a proprietary data interface. The GUI needs to be created and rendered in an off screen buffer on the server with the data that constitutes repaint regions being sent to the LCD display.
I have thought about overriding the RepaintManagerI but that doesn't work when the display on the sever is not visible. I have thought about creating a custom GraphicsDevice and GraphicsConfiguration but I haven't had any success with this approach.
Has anyone done anything similar? Could anyone suggest a solution to this problem? I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks.

Hi -
I have a similar problem.
I have a small LCD controlled via the serial port. I have written a simple Java class to set or clear individual pixels on the display (it makes use of Java COMM to communicate with the hardware).
How would I go about turning this simple class into something that Java could use to render graphics on?
Obviously I could start writing a whole set of graphics routines for drawing lines, boxes, glyphs etc myself, but this is clearly wasted effort. How can I make use of the existing code to render graphics on a non-standard display?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Bug (possibly?): SelectManyShuttle fails to display selected items

Bug (possibly?): SelectManyShuttle fails to display selected items when valuePassThru="true" in ADF 10g
Hello all,
When run, the example below shows a Select Many Shuttle with four choices in the leading list. When items are shuttled to the training list and the page is submitted the trailing list is rendered with no items selected. Is this a bug?
Configuration
This example was constructed using jDeveloper 10.1.3.5.0.
A new application was created using the Web Application [JSF, ADF BC] template although no business components are used.
Steps to Reproduce
1. Create the following backing bean class.
package com.fmcna.adf.test.view;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.faces.model.SelectItem;
public class ShuttleBean {
    public ShuttleBean() {
    private List availableItems;
    private List selectedItems;
    public void setAvailableItems(List availableItems) {
        this.availableItems = availableItems;
    public List getAvailableItems() {
        //populate with a List of SelectItem instances on the inital call to this method
        if(this.availableItems==null) {
            this.availableItems=generateSelectItemsList();
        return availableItems;
    public void setSelectedItems(List selectedItems) {
        this.selectedItems = selectedItems;
    public List getSelectedItems() {
        return selectedItems;
     * Build a List of SelectItem instances to be used by an af:selectManyShuttle
     * @return A List containing SelectItems instances
    private List generateSelectItemsList() {
        List initialItems = new ArrayList();
        initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(11),"First Choice"));
        initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(22),"Second Choice"));
        initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(33),"Third Choice"));
        initialItems.add(new SelectItem(new Integer(44),"Fourth Choice"));
        return initialItems;
}2. Configure the ShuttleBean class as a session scoped managed bean as in the following faces-config.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<!DOCTYPE faces-config PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JavaServer Faces Config 1.1//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd">
<faces-config xmlns="http://java.sun.com/JSF/Configuration">
<managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>ShuttleBean</managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>com.fmcna.adf.test.view.ShuttleBean</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>session</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<application>
    <default-render-kit-id>oracle.adf.core</default-render-kit-id>
</application>
</faces-config>3. Create a JSP page containing an af:selectManyShuttle with a nested f:selectItems component. Wire the values for these components to the properties in the managed bean.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces" prefix="af"%>
<f:view>
<html>
    <head>
      <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"
            content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"/>
      <title>testShuttle</title>
    </head>
    <body><h:form>
        <af:selectManyShuttle value="#{ShuttleBean.selectedItems}" valuePassThru="true">
            <f:selectItems value="#{ShuttleBean.availableItems}"/>
        </af:selectManyShuttle>
        <af:commandLink text="Postback"/>
    </h:form></body>
</html>
</f:view>4. Run the JSP. Validate that the trailing list is initially empty.
5. Shuttle one or more items to the trailing list and click the Postback button. Validate that when the page refreshes the trailing list is again empty.
Thanks for any input you might be able to provide.

I'm holding my Nano in my hot little hands with ALL of the things you listed, but here's the sad, simple truth: you CAN'T use iTunes to sync everything. It works well for:
1) Music
2) Videos (except sometimes in Vista)
3) Photos (as long as they're not too large)
but is terrible for:
1) calendar
2) contacts
3) To-Do lists
For the latter use something like "iGadget" (www.ipodsoft.com). I also edit/store notes w/iGadget plus it allows you to export files, etc.
I gave up on syncing iTunes w/Outlook long ago. Good luck.

Creating a GUI for use on an Ethernet Network

I'm designing a data logger to log voltage, current and temperature data on a reserve battery string while it's being charged. The logger will have the capability to be viewed remotely via Ethernet. With that said, I'd like some advice regarding the GUI for the remote PC which will be used to view the logger. Will it be easier to create the GUI using LabView or another high-level language (Java, C++ etc)? (Note: I have some programming experience in C (though I've never written/created a GUI) and I've never used LabView).
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Joe1373. In general, for a small one-off project, I would suggest you go with a language you know.
In this case it sounds like whatever you choose you will have a learning curve, so I would recommend
LabVIEW if that is a possibility cost-wise. LV has a lot of built-in support for GUI development so
you can make realtively sophisticated GUIs without a whole lot of work/learning.
There are time-limited evaluation versions of LV available for download. I would take a look there, especially
the examples. Find something a little similar to what you want to do, then change the GUI on the
example to more closely match your ultimate objective to get a feel for the GUI development in LV.
This forum is a great resource with some very helpful developers, so come back with questions.
There are also many professional developers available to assist if you have a budget or inclination
towards that direction.

Is it possible to create a dual y-axis chart in Xcelsius?

Is it possible to create a dual axis type chart, mixed bar and line?

Xcelsius does not currently have the ability to create a dual axis chart. However, other users have been able to create a workaround by layering two charts on top of each other and hiding the undesired elements of the second chart. A third chart can be added in much the same way to display the second axis' label(s). Searching the internet for articles from users should locate step by step instructions.

Possible to create detailed and Summary in same crystal report?

Hello
I have worked with cyrstal reports back in 2001. Now I am back to creation of reports. I vaguely remember I was able to create summary and detailed reports from one crystal report file. I don't remember if I was using two different stored procedures or not. Can anybody explain if it is possible to create summary and detailed reports from one crystal report file and with one stored procedure. I am guessing somehow I should be able to control behaviour of report - ie. say if user selects detailed report- report will show all records and if user selects summary view then report will show summarized view of same data.
If its possible how do you do it? Can you explain.
Thanks a lot.

There are a couple of techniques with drilling and sub-reports, but what I do most frequently is create a Detail/Summary parameter for the user to select, and then have a formula that references this parameter to either hide or display a Detail section of the report sepending on the option the user chooses. My experience is that most users can relate to this approach better, where as driling and sub-reports can sometimes cause confusion for them.

Is it possible to create custom layouts in "Pages '09"?

Is it possible to create my own custom document layout size in "Pages '09", or am I stuck with the 8.5 X 11 templates?

Is it possible to create my own custom document layout size in "Pages '09", or am I stuck with the 8.5 X 11 templates?
The answer is that you can set a custom x-y coordinate space or select a canned x-y coordinate space from the ISO A series or any of the industry and US national series.
This fact is not based on the application software, but on your own use of a digital graphic device that draws patterns of picture elements. Your display and your printer are digital graphic devices.
With a digital graphic device, the application, the OS and the driver don't communicate in ASCII control codes for carriage return and so forth.
The application, the OS and the driver communicate in x-y coordinate spaces within which you set other coordinates for typography frames and photography frames.
This is what you see in Apple Pages layout mode as well as in the layout mode of Microsoft Word, and in any version of Aldus PageMaker since 1985, QuarkXPress since 1987 and so on and so forth.
When you are done and have exported your design to disk as Adobe PDF, the x-y coordinate space you set for the design space can be seen as the Media Box in Apple Preview > View > PDF Display > Media Box.
If you set an x-y coordinate space that is larger than the x-y coordinate space, then it is device-independent. Apple Preview will by default scale the size down to the dimensions of your digital graphic display, will scale the resolution down in memory, will convert the scalable type to smooth bitmap type in memory, and will convert other colour spaces to the ICC colour space of your digital graphic device. Another digital graphic device with an x-y coordinate space that has another dimension can draw your design as is, draw scaled up, draw scaled down, or draw as is in tiles. This is how books and periodicals have been proofed and then printed for a quarter century.
Should be taught in school, though.

e.g.

how can i call it from a resource something like
File myFile= new File(this.getClass.getResource("mypage.htm"));

you may be right
im trying to load a file into a string then display that string
my resource thingy isnt working anyway :s
[code[

Is it possible to create a pop up screen with alv tree within it?

I was wondering whether it is possible to create a pop up screen where an ALV tree is within the pop up screen and the user may select a record from it..
is there a function module for such function?

you may use class cl_gui_alv_tree and display it in a popup screen. Look at RSDEMO_DIALOGBOX_CONTROL program (popup + cl_gui_picture control), and you combine it with BCALV_TREE_04 (cl_gui_alv_tree) to replace cl_gui_picture. You may access all demos from menu SE38, Environment, Examples (and finally Controls Examples in your case)

Standard vs User Created FI Line Display Variants

Hello folks,
I'd like your opinion on the following problem:
Requirement: Display variants which begin with a special character other than / that is not in the sap standard variant name space, and can
only be defined by selected users.
We have users in ecc 6.0 that may create and save User Specific display layouts (those beginning with an alpha character), but we need to have
the same display layouts saved as User Independent, that is Shareable with all other users and still begin with an alpha character....
But we cannot give access to create/change Standard display layouts (those beginning with a slash / ), as our Standard display
layouts/variants must remain protected and changeable only by designated users.
Any ideias if this is possible?
If it's not possible, no problem, I'll reward anyway.
Thank you for your help.

Officially... cross-posting between the forums is not allowed... but sometimes both a security (technical) and functional aspect is very helpfull.
The ability for moderators to mirror threads is unfortunately not available... ... So I will lock this thread.
Please use => Standard vs User Created FI Line Display Layouts/Variants for security contributions to this question.
This keeps the answers together in one place....
Cheers,
