Keeping values to controls after closing a VI

I am trying to set up a UI for my techs where they can add columns to a test report and give each column a name. I have been taught a way to have them add/remove columns, but this VI must be used in TestStand later to create the report and the sequence must read the titiles of those columns. The problem is that the VI seems to dump the data once the VI is closed. What would be the best method to keep this data after closing the VI?

What control are you using?
Most often you right-click on the control go to Data Operations and select Make Current Value Default.

I keep getting this message after closing Firefox and attempt to reopen-Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.

Firefox 4 keeps on downloading video after closing.

When I watch a video on Firefox 4 on a website like Youtube and close Firefox before it finishes (downloading) the video, I see on my Bandwidth monitor that it keeps on downloading something even though I closed Firefox.
I have tested to see if this happens on IE 8 and Firefox 3.6.16, but it doesn't. I have also disabled all addons and extensions but Flash on Firefox 4, and it still happens. I have also used different Bandwidth monitors, but they all report the same thing.
I have Windows 7 Professional.

The Shockwave and Java applications may need 'PLUGIN UPDATE' for newer versions. Suggest a check for any outdated PLUGIN UPDATE found from the Mozilla Firefox Toolbar 'Help' Menu > 'Firefox Help' > [lower right margin displays link to more info to review and 'UPDATE PLUGIN's!

Clicking mouse after closing JDialog sends event to last component (1.1.8)

There seems to be a bug in Java 1.1.8 that I'm looking for a workaround.
I have a JButton on a JFrame that brings up a modal JDialog when you click it. After closing the dialog, if you click on the JFrame without moving the mouse, it will click the button on the frame that was last clicked, even if the mouse is not over the button.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Use the mouse to click on the button on the frame to bring up the dialog.
2. Close the dialog with the mouse or keyboard and don't move the mouse at all. (Note that the mouse should be over the JFrame at this point, but not over the frame's button.)
3. Click the mouse again.
Result:
This causes the button on the frame to be clicked.
It seems as if the frame thinks that the mouse pointer is located where it was when the dialog came up.
Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening or a workaround?

We are using 1.1.8 because our product has to run on Mac OS 8.x - 9.x (and this is the latest JRE supported by these platforms).
When I say don't move the mouse, what I mean is when closing the dialog, if you don't move the mouse, it doesn't matter where the mouse pointer is, as long as it's over the frame. When you click it, the last button to get clicked will be clicked again. It's as if the frame thinks that the mouse hasn't moved since the dialog came up. This isn't a focus problem because if I set the focus on another control after opening the dialog (by calling requestFocus()), this problem still happens. I can also tab to another control after closing the dialog, but when clicking the mouse it still clicks the last button that was clicked. It's as if the frame needs to reset where the mouse position is when it becomes activated.

How to Direct control to application's window after closing the popup?

Hi,
I am using 10.1.3. In my application I am unable to direct control to application's window after closing the popup, if I open any other window at the same time.
For more info see the below step:-
-> Open any popup in my application.
-> Open any new window (lets say Google.com).
-> Now restore popup on Google window.
-> Now close popup
          - control goes to Google window but not the parent application window.
How to direct control to the parent window?
Can anybody help me regarding this?
Thanx...Abhijit

Hi Abhijit,
You can do this using Javascript alone. Below are the two sample files I created.
main.html_
<html>
<head>
<title>Testing popup</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function openPopup() {
    window.open("popup.html");
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a hr_ef="javascript:openPopup()">Open popup</a>
<input id="something" name="something" type="text" value="something">
</body>
</html>
Note: hr_ef should be href. The code tags are messing with the link.
popup.html_
<html>
<head>
<title>This is the popup window</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function goToMain() {
    window.opener.something.focus();
</script>
</head>
<body onunload="goToMain()">
This is the popup window. Close this window to return to main window.
</body>
</html>The idea is to call a javascript function in the popup window that tries to focus on an object (eg. InputText) in the main html.
Although, one point to take note is the naming of html objects by by these ADF UI Components. If you named your form id as "*form1*" and input text id as "*something*", your input text id will end up as "*form1:something*".
Therefore, you will have to tweak the code above to the following:
<script type="text/javascript">
function goToMain() {
window.opener.form1['form1:something'].focus();
</script>Regards,

Open Sale Order Value (FD33) not getting diminished even after closing SO?

Hi,
Upon Executing FD33 and clicking the status view for a Customer say XYZ , and then choosing EXTRAS-Open Sale Order . Say the value of open sale orders being shown is 75000. Even after closing the open sale orders (By Selecting VA05 and Putting reason for Rejection), and then also the Open Sales Order value is not getting diminished.
What could be the reason ?
Pls help.
Regrds,
Binayak

Hi Binayak,
As mentioned by you, running of Credit re-org program 'RVKRED77' is the only solution for this problem and it is known problem in SAP.
Some precautions
1. Always run the program in background by scheduling a job.
2. The idle time is around midnight when no user is working on SAP.
3. Some time the job fails as some other program may be updating same tables as this program. In such cases re-schedule the job at different time.
4. You may run the program 'RVKRED88' which will simulate without actual updation of credit values.
Hope this clarifies..
Regards,
Madhu.

FIrefox 4 beta does not work anymore. Directly after start-up (my homepage is showing) is firefox hanging, showing an hour glass. No button, URL or whatever can be used, except for the close button. But even after closing firefox, it keeps on running.

Even after closing down the application, the firefox task remains running in the background and must be killed with Windows Task Control.
Even deinstalling and installing the latest beta version does not solve it. Unfortunately I have to use Google Chrome Now.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

Changes in stock value of the material even after closing period

The client closes the accounts every month end. Say they close the books of accounts for the month of Jan07 on 31st Jan 2007. After closing the account they are running MC.9 to know the stock value of different plants for the previous month. i.e. for the month of Jan07. But every day when the client runs the MC.9 they found some differences in the stock price & quantity.
For better understanding, consider they close the period on 31st Jan. When they run the MC.9 on 2nd Feb it shows the value say 100$ and qty of 100. When we run the same report on 4th Feb the value got changed to say 98$ and qty remain same. Again when we run on 6th Feb the value is changed again to say 102$ and stock is 100.
We checked the MB51 with posting date & entered date. We could not find any back posting.
What could be the reason for the variation in the stock price & qty ? Any pointers will be highly appricated.

Hi Venkat,
Your previous posting talked about variation in stock value and now you are saying that there are changes in stock qty also. So the better option would be to check those material which has variation and compare them with other standard reports to get a solution. Export the list of material to an excel sheet and compare them with that of the other reports. This would help you to find the materials which has changes and you can narrow down to the root cause. Once you get the material then u can go by posting date and find the movements.
Hope this helps. Reward if u find it useful.

My iMac screen keeps showing pixels of previously opened documents and Safari tabs and hour or two after closing them. The shadow of those opened documents are still there hours later after shutting down and restarting my computer. What is happening

My iMac screen keeps showing pixels of previously opened documents and Safari tabs and hour or two after closing them.
Even when I swipe to the dashboard the outlines are still there when I know they should not be.
The shadow of those opened documents are still there hours later after shutting down and restarting my computer.
What is happening and what shall I do? Thanks in advance.

Not much to go on in your product info, but maybe this will help: iMac (27-inch): AMD Radeon 6970M Video Card Replacement Program. If not, then it's time to visit an Apple repair station.

Why does Firefox keep me logged into websites after closing and reopening the browser?

As of today, Firefox has been behaving differently. Namely, when I close Firefox and reopen, I am still logged in to email and other sites. I have all of my privacy settings checked, such as clear history, offline data, form history, etc etc so that they all will be deleted upon closing but this has no effect. Can someone provide insight as to why this is happening and how I can correct it? Before today, after closing and reopening the browser I was required to log in to any sites requiring UN and PW.
I have rechecked all history deletion options to make sure all the appropriate ones were selected. Yesterday, I noticed inbox.com and a program called 24x7 Help were installed on the computer, without my knowledge. I promptly uninstalled them,but I'm not sure if they could somehow be responsible for the odd behavior.

Such a behavior indicates that you keep the cookie(s) that verify that you are logged on to a web server.
Are you using session restore to open those tabs automatically?
* Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
You can set the <b>browser.sessionstore.privacy_level</b> pref to 2 (never) or 1 (non-HTTPS, default in Firefox 3 versions) on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable saving cookies via session restore.
You can change the browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred pref that is used when you do not reopen the previous session automatically via "Show my windows and tabs from last time".

Firefox keeps running after closing using 90% plus of CPU, WHY?

Using task manager FIREFOX continues to use a high percentage of CPU after closing it.
Running XP SP3
Exploerer continues to run also but a more reasonable CPU usage

ITunes keeps launching even after closing.

After upgrading to Yosemite, iTunes will spontaneously start after closing iTunes 12.01.26

Close is not the same as Quit:
click the red ball on the left top and iTunes window is closed, but iTunes is still running: see the light under the Dock icon;
to quit you must quit from the menu bar, or when it is the foremost window by CMD Q key combination.

Firefox 5 keeps downloading after closing

Firefox 5 continues downloading after closing it. For example, in youtube after watching a video I close the tab. But, still my network monitor showing some thing is downloading.
