Keeping user interface in English while another language is 1st in the list

Hi, I am looking for a solution to UI taking the language selected first in "International" system prefs panel. I do need to have proper localization under the hood of all language-aware applications, but keep the UI in English.
Tom Gewecke had once posted a solution for a similar case with iTunes (thanks a lot btw): get info for the app and uncheck unneeded languages. I'd love to use it for Finder as well, but don't know what app to get info for in this case:)
Thanks for any comments!

Things were always this way since there was no such thing as an official Russian interface until 10.5.
That's not exactly true. 10.4 on intel macs also had Russian localization at some point.
http://m10lmac.blogspot.com/2007/06/some-tiger-versions-have-russian.html
But the trick with removing Russian.lproj could be my answer now like it was in iTunes. What app can I remove it from to make sure ALL menus stay in English throughout the OS?
Unfortunately there may be a lot of them. Do a search of your System folder for ru.lproj.
I think it might be easier to reinstall your OS. At the point of that process where you are allowed to customize, you find the languages item and just uncheck the box for Russian. That should make your OS just like it was in 10.4.

How to get the user interface in english ?

Hello
I have installed SQLdevelopper 1.5.5. The user interface is in french (probably because my PC is in french). I would like to switch in English; How to do ?
Thank you !
Christian

-K- (!),
I followed your suggestions and it works well now. Do you know why I prefer to see the UI in english ? Because the help and everything else (documentation) is in english making very difficult to find in the french UI what is referred to in the english on-line help.
Merci de votre aide !

Translate from english to another language

I have a report where I would like to translate english to french, spanish etc.
is there a funtion that will do this, or do i need to purchase a tool???

OK, as they say in Germany, das difference!
So the goal is a single report that can:
1) take specific words as part of text coded directly into the report OR identify certain words from a text or text memo field
and translate them:
2) Into all languages or just one user specified language?
Fuskie
Who also wonders if the list of translatable words is fixed in size or can grow dynamically as needed...

Templates part English, part another language

I just installed Pages '09. All of the templates are part English and part another language even tho the Text selection in Inspector is English.
What now?

2 countries, the USA and Britain seem to struggle with this. Thankfully I never got my education in either.
The "another language" is Latin. Misquotes from Cicero to be exact.
All it does is show you what the text looks like and if you simply clicked in it you would find it is instantly selected and replaced by whatever you type or paste.

Spell-checker keeps changing to US English when system language order is changed

When I switch the order of preferred system languages in System Preferences' Language and Text section, the spell-checker's language often changes to 'US English', even though it's disabled on my computer as I prefer the British spell-checker. My current preferred language order is 'British English', followed by 'English' and 'German'. US English is completely disabled as a system language. When I go and check the 'spelling' option in the Language and Text panel, the spelling is set to US English (even if it had British English set before, which it has done since I initially set up my language options) and I have to see unsightly red underlines under words like colour and realise. Whilst this is easy to change I would rather not have to constantly change it back to British every time I do this. Does anyone else experience this, and is there a way to prevent the US English zombie from rising again?
I'm using OS X 10.8.4.

It may be a general category, but in practice I have never seen a piece a software where English will give any other localization than American English. Have you?
I doubt that switching OS languages is something many people do more than once. Still, you are right that it should go back to the original setting. Let Apple know via

Playing a prompt while another process is running in the background

I'm running ICM 6 with IP IVR Queue Manager 3.5.
I've built a couple of scripts that take input from callers and then uses the input to query a database. Sometimes it takes a few seconds to return with a response so I want to play music or a prompt while it retrieves the data.
Is this possible with Queue Manager?
thanks

I haven't used anything earlier than 4.0 so I'm unsure of any idiosyncrasies between that and 4.0 but I assume this would still be possible so what I'd do is just place the call on hold before you do the DB dip and then after it's done take the call off hold and do whatever treatment you need to.
Cheers,

Why do I get -18001 Errors using Customised TestStand User Interface

Hi all
I have a problem when attempting to run my application on my host NT PC. I have a customised operator interface to TestStand written using Labview 5.1.1 and built using the LabVIEW application builder. I am running the TestStand Development (Run-Time) System on my host PC.
The problem is that as soon as I go to run my sequence of vis (mass compiled using the same version of LabVIEW and assembled for run-time distribution) I receive the error '-18001 VI Not Executable.'
I think this is probably to do with how I've included the ActiveX server in my LabVIEW User Interface application, but knowing very little about ActiveX I'm not sure exactly what the problem is.
If anyone
has any ideas, I would be extremely grateful for any assistance you could offer. My TS version is 1.0.1
Thanks
Dave

David,
I would like to add to Richard's input. The typical reasons a VI cannot be executed that cause this message are:
1) There is an error in the VI such that the run arrow of the VI is broken when the VI is open in the LV development environment. This problem is usually easy to debug because you should get the error (shown below) when running your sequence in the sequence editor using the default "LabVIEW" ActiveX server provided by the LV development environment (not the LV ActiveX server provided by your operator interface which is by default named "TestStandLVGUIRTS" ).
An error occurred in the 'MyVIStep' step of the 'MainSequence' sequence in 'MySequence.seq'.
LabVIEW : VI is not executable.
An error occurred accessing the LabVIEW ActiveX automation server. Error Code: -18001
2) The same error will occur when
a. you are using any LV ActiveX server other than the "LabVIEW" server provided by the LV development environment, AND
b. at least one of the called VI was not assembled for distribution properly. This means that not all test VIs and their *entire* hierarchy were distributed.
I am not sure exactly what you have done so have compiled some information that I think will help. Below I have included the document, Overview of Distributing TestStand when your Sequences use the LV Standard Prototype Adapter, which will appear in the NIDZ shortly. Another useful document is the NIDZ document Distributing LabVIEW Test VIs, which you can obtain from our website. Read these documents before preceding with the steps immediately below, which give you an example process for distributing. This may help provide a better understanding and guidance in the distribution process. We are working to simplify this process in future versions of TestStand.
For the following example distribution I recommend that you are use default shipping code so that the problem is not complicated with potential errors added through customizations you have made.
Building The Operator Interface
The following are steps if you are using a LabVIEW operator interface.
1) Copy the contents of \OperatorInterfaces\NI\LV to \OperatorInterfaces\User\LV.
2) Open a new VI in LabVIEW. Make sure all other VIs are closed.
3) In LabVIEW Select Tools>>Build Application or Shared Library
4) In the builder click the Load button and load \OperatorInterfaces\User\LV\testexec.bld. This build script is configured to create testexec.exe that contains the LV ActiveX server with the name of TestStandLVGUIRTS (see the Application tab of the builder).
5) In the builder click Build.
6) Once the application testexec.exe is built, run it once so that the server TestStandLVGUIRTS is automatically registered. You do not need to run a sequence. Close texec.exe.
Creating a LabVIEW Run-time Server
If you are using the LabVIEW operator interface then skip this section. The following steps are meant for those who use an operator interface written in a ADE other than LabVIEW. They provide you with a LabVIEW run-time server that is used by TS to run your VIs.
1) Copy the contents of \Components\NI\RuntimeServers to \Components\User\RuntimeServers.
2) Open a new VI in LabVIEW. Make sure all other VIs are closed.
3) In LabVIEW Select Tools>>Build Application or Shared Library
4) In the builder click the Load button and load \Components\User\RuntimeServers\LabVIEW\TestStandLVRTS.bld. This build script is configured to create TestStandLVRTS.exe that contains the LV ActiveX server with the name of TestStandLVRTS (see the Application tab of the builder).
5) In the builder click Build.
6) Once the application TestStandLVRTS.exe is built, run it once so that the server TestStandLVRTS is automatically registered on your development machine. Close TestStandLVRTS.exe.
Assembling the Test VIs for Run-Time Distribution
This distribution process uses one of the shipping TS examples that calls LV VIs.
1) From LV mass compile all VIs in the directory \Examples\AccessingArrays\UsingLabVIEW\. Please make sure that there were no error messages in the Status tab of the Mass Compile dialog box.
2) In the sequence editor open \Examples\AccessingArrays\UsingLabVIEW\AccessingArrays.seq
3) Confirm that the sequence runs without problem.
4) In the sequence editor select Tools>>Assemble Test VIs for Run-time Distribution.
5) If you are using TestStand 2.0 select \Examples\AccessingArrays\UsingLabVIEW\AccessingArrays.seq as the file from which the VIs should be assembled.
6) Set the target directory to be something distinct like C:\temp\AssblVIs.
7) If you are using TestStand 2.0 skip adding Dynamic VIs
8) Save with or without diagrams. Its your choice.
Change Search Directories
Once the VIs are assembled successfully, you must add the new target directory to the TS search directories.
1) In the sequence editor select Configure>>Search Directories.
2) Add your target search directory (e.g. C:\temp\AssblVIs) to the search directories.
3) Close the Edit Search Directories dialog box.
4) Confirm that your sequence steps now reference the assembled VIs. Right click on a step in the sequence and select Specify Module.
5) The dialog should show that the code module is found in the target directory (e.g. C:\temp\AssblVIs) that you just added to the search directories.
6) Run the sequence. This is the initial test to see if the VIs are assembled properly.
Switch the LV Adapter to use the TestStandLVRTS server or TestStandLVGUIRTS
1) In the sequence editor select Configure>>Adpaters.
2) In the Configurable Adapters control select the LabVIEW Standard Prototype Adapter and then click the Configure button.
3a) If you are not using the LV operator interface then switch the ActiveX server to TestStandLVRTS.
3b)If you are using the LV operator interface then switch the ActiveX server to TestStandLVGUIRTS.
4) Close the adapter configuration dialog boxes. You will get a couple of questions boxes. Just click OK each time.
5) Now run your sequence. If successful you are no longer using the LV development environment to run your VIs. This shows that the VIs were assembled correctly, the LV ActiveX server is working properly and that the search directories are configured properly.
You can now try and run the sequence using your operator interface on you development computer. If this test works it means that you have also confirmed that your operator interface is working correctly with all the other components. Now it is just a matter of moving all the component correctly to the target machine.
Distributing Components
-To distribute your operator interface use the distribution tool of the application development environment (ADE) in which you built your operator interface.
-To distribute the TS engine using the Run Engine Installation Wizard tool. This tool is typically not used for distributing your sequences and VIs, which you will probably distribute more frequently than the TS engine. It does distribute and register your LV run-time server (if you are using one) as long as you have stored it in \Components\User\RuntimeServers. It also distributes other TS components that you have stored under the directory \Components\User\.
-You can use whatever distribution system you like to distribute your VIs and sequence files (e.g. ZIP and network transfer are popular) . Ensure that you distribute the assembled VIs and not the development VIs. Also ensure that the location of the VIs on the target machine is one of the TS search directories.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Kitt
=========================================
Title:
Overview of Distributing TestStand when your Sequences use the LV Standard Prototype Adapter
The general outline of the components to be distributed and the actions to take are followed by a more detailed description.
Components that need to be distributed:
TS engine
Operator interface
LabVIEW executable that will act as a LabVIEW ActiveX automation server (If the operator interfaces is written in LabVIEW, it can function as the LabVIEW ActiveX automation server.).
LabVIEW run-time engine
LabVIEW test VIs
Test sequence files
Actions before distributing:
It is recommended that you test the distribution components on the development machine before you distribute them to your target machine. In this manner you can more easily debug errors that you may encounter
Create the executable that will serve as your LabVIEW ActiveX server on the target machine (components 2 or 3 above).
Assemble the test VIs for distribution.
Update the TestStand search directories so that the sequences reference the assembled VIs.
Configure the LabVIEW Standard Prototype Adapter to use the LabVIEW ActiveX server that you will install on the target machine.
Test the distribution components on the development machine.
Enter section headings, separating each section with a line break:
TS Engine Component
Operator Interface Component
LabVIEW ActiveX Server
Configuring the LabVIEW Standard Prototype Adapter
LabVIEW Run-time Engine Component
Assembling your Test VIs for Distribution
Note
TS Engine Component
With any TestStand distribution you must install the TestStand runtime engine on the target machine. The Run Engine Installation Wizard tool, found under Tools menu of the Sequence Editor, facilitates this process. The wizard tool will create two files, SetupTSEngine.exe and TSEngine.cab. Move the two files to your target machine and run SetupTSEngine.exe to install the TestStand engine.
These installation files include the current configuration settings that exist in the Sequence Editor at the time the tool is invoked. It also includes all process models, TestStand types and step type modules. If you have customized components of TestStand and saved them under the directory TestStand\Components\User, then the components will also be included with the engine installation.
You must purchase at least a base deployment or debug deployment license for each machine on which you install the TestStand engine.
Operator Interface Component
You will also need to install an operator interface executable on the target machine. This program acts as a client to the TS runtime engine, controlling the execution of sequences and displaying their progress. TestStand ships with several versions of TestStand operator interfaces, which are written in different application development environments (ADE). For distributing the operator interface executable, refer to the application development environment in which it was created.
LabVIEW ActiveX Server
You must have a LabVIEW ActiveX server on the target machine. TestStand uses the LabVIEW ActiveX server to run VIs using either the LabVIEW development environment or the LabVIEW runtime engine. The LabVIEW ActiveX server is provided by either LabVIEW development environment or by any LabVIEW executable that has been built with �Enable ActiveX Server� selected. This setting can be accessed in the LabVIEW Application Builder during the build process. When this preference is enabled, you must enter a server name. You will use the server name to configure the LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter in TestStand.
If your operator interface is written in LabVIEW, then it can act as the LabVIEW ActiveX server on your target machine. TestStand ships with two operator interfaces written in LabVIEW. The standard LabVIEW operator interface is located in TestStand\OperatorInterfaces\NI\LV, while a simplified version is located in TestStand\Examples\OperatorInterfaces\Simple LV. LabVIEW buildscripts are provided for these applications to facilitate building an operator interface in the latest version of LabVIEW. The settings of these buildscripts are such that the applications are LabVIEW ActiveX servers with the server names of TestStandLVGUIRTS for the standard operator interface, and TestStandSimpleLVGUIRTS for the simple operator interface. The applications register the servers the first time they are executed. If you want to manually register or unregister one of the servers, you can invoke the executable with the /RegServer and /UnregServer command-line arguments respectively.
If your operator interface is programmed in a language other than LabVIEW, then you will need a separate LabVIEW executable to provide the LabVIEW ActiveX server on your target machine. For this purpose, TestStand ships with a LabVIEW run-time server application located in TestStand\Components\NI\RuntimeServers\LabVIEW. A LabVIEW buildscript is provided for this application to facilitate building a run-time server in the latest version of LabVIEW. The settings of this buildscript are such that the application is a LabVIEW ActiveX server with the server name of TestStandLVRTS.
Note: When an ActiveX executable server is accessed, the executable is launched automatically if it is not already executing.
Configuring the LabVIEW Standard Prototype Adapter
When TestStand runs a VI using the LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter, it does so using a LabVIEW ActiveX server. By default the adapter is configured to use the �LabVIEW� server, which is provided by the LabVIEW development environment. If you do not have the LabVIEW development environment on your target machine then you must configure the LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter within TestStand to use a different server (e.g. TestStandLVGUIRTS, TestStandLVRTS, or TestStandSimpleLVGUIRTS).
To configure your LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter, select Configure>>Adapters from the menu. In the Adapter Configuration dialog box that appears, select the LabVIEW Standard Prototype Adapter in the Configurable Adapters section. Click the Configure button. You can select or type a server name in the Select or Type Which LabVIEW ActiveX Server to User control. If your server name is not in the list you will need to type it.
As explained in the LabVIEW ActiveX Server section above, TestStand ships with LabVIEW buildscripts to build a LabVIEW operator interface and a LabVIEW run-time server application. These applications are LabVIEW ActiveX servers with server names TestStandLVGUIRTS and TestStandLVGRTS, respectively. You can configure you LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter to use one of these servers.
LabVIEW Run-time Engine Component
If any of your sequence steps use the LabVIEW adapter or if your operator interface is written in LabVIEW, then you must install the LabVIEW runtime engine on the target machine. It is important that your LabVIEW run-time engine is the same version as the VIs that TestStand executes.
You can find installation files for the LABVIEW 5.1 run-time engine in the LabVIEW installation directory, Labview\APPLIBS\installs\RunTime. In addition, you can choose to automatically distribute and install the LabVIEW run-time engine with the distribution of a LabVIEW executable. Refer to LabVIEW documentation.
Assembling your Test VIs for Distribution
After distributing TestStand, you must ensure that your sequences are able to locate the VIs they call, and the VIs must be able to locate their required resources.
One common mistake is to simply copy the original VIs from the development machine to the target machine. Once you have configured your LabVIEW Standard Prototype adapter to use a LabVIEW ActiveX server other than LabVIEW, your sequence will not be able to execute your original test VIs that your sequences call.
TestStand provides the Assemble Test VIs for Distribution tool, which gathers test VIs and their required resources, and places them in a common location for distribution. You can then modify your TestStand search directories so that your sequences reference the assembled VIs. These topics are covered in the NIDZ document Distributing LabVIEW Test VIs.
Links: See Distributing LabVIEW Test VIs below
Note
Remember to test your distribution components on your TestStand development system before distributing TestStand. If the execution does not work on the development system it is not going to work on your target machine. On your development machine you have more ability to debug problems you may encounter.
Note: One common problem of testing distribution components on your TestStand development system is that your sequences reference the original Test VIs instead of the assembled test VIs. Refer to the NIDZ document Distributing LabVIEW Test VIs for assistance.
Once the components work on your development machine, you are ready to install them on your target machine. The order in which you install these components on the target machine is irrelevant.

Scalable User Interface

... Applies to most of your software...
It is really exhausting for me to read menu items or identify icons inside your applications. Therefore I would appreciate an option to enlarge user interface text and icons - an option preferrably linked to the Windows DPI settings. This is especially true when using a high-resolution screen.
Regards.

You are not alone. With the ascent of flat screen monitors screen resolutions keep getting higher and higher while the practicality of reducing screen resoution, at least for users of ID, is diminshed as it causes other problems that are far worse than squinting.

Lego mindstorms: Is it possible to change the fixed user interface size of 1024 x 800 to smaller for use with netbooks?

I teach at a school that is using netbooks next
year - the screen size is 1024 x 576 for one model and 1024 x 600 for another model and color quality is 32 bit. To
our dismay, when we loaded Lego Mindstorms software to test it, we
discovered that the user interface is fixed at 1024 x 800, which means
the control panel at the bottom of the screen is inaccessible on the
netbooks. Is there a way to change the interface size so that we can
use the software on netbooks? This is a serious issue for us! Thanks
for any help.
I posted this question in the LabView for Lego Enthusiasts forum, but noticed that nothing new has been posted by the moderator since 2007. That's why I posted it in an active forum. Thanks.

Tutorial on teststand user interface to cvi

I haven't used the CVI to TestSand User Interface since 2004. I've been put on an upgrade project to go from Windows 2000 to Winows 7, TestStand 3.0 to TestStand 2010, and CVI 7 to CVI 2010. Now I have to make the old UI work.
Are there any good tutorials out there on the CVI user interface for TestStand?
More specifically, I'm trying to figure out why the TS_EngineGetResourceString doesn't work now? (more specifically how does TS_EngineGetResourseString work)
Thanks

User exit or BADI while saving purchase order

Hello,
I want to use an user exit or BADI while saving of purchase order. The objective is to check the material group of the line item while saving. We don´t want to allow to save purchase orders for one material group.
Can you please guide me.
Thanks
Srinivasan

Hi
The Business Add-In (BAdI) ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST enables you to extend the business logic of the Enjoy purchase order on an individual basis.
You can thus influence the dialog transactions ME21N, ME22N, ME23N, and ME29N, and the BAPIs BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and BAPI_PO_CHANGE.
Typical applications for this BAdI include:
Processing of own objects
Processing of additional data on standard objects
Implementation of additional checks and derivationsChange of data in standard fields
Change in field selection
you can use this BADI for checking the material group
Thanks & Regards
