Labview IMAQ VI for capturing images and saving with incremental file names

Hello,
I am using LabView 7.1(IMAQ) to capture images with NI's PCI 1426 card, and a JAI CV-M2 camera. Now, with the example VI's like LL Grab, or LL Sequence, or Snap and Save to File.vi, I can capture the images. But what I actually want is to capture images continuously and keep saving them with a sequentially incrementing file name.
I have tried to modify the Snap and Save to File.vi by adding a 'for loop', so as to run this for required number of images. This works okay, but I can't really change the file name after every image. However, I'm not confident with this method either. I think it would be better to use the buffer itself, as is given in LL Grab.vi and somehow save images from the buffer. I think this would be faster ?
In any case, any ideas as to how I should go about implementing auto-incrementing of the file name ?
Any help will do.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for replying.
I tried using this in the VI i was working with, but using the "build path" vi doesnt seem to work. If I use just the base path from user's input, it works, but then again it keeps overwriting the images into one file rather than giving each file a new name. I'm attaching the vi.
Please take a look and tell me where i'm going wrong.
Thanks again.

Need common interface across devices for word processing and spreadsheets with shared files

Need software for Mac, PC, iPad & iPhone with common word processing interface across devices (spreadsheet as well).
Need shared access to files through home NAS or cloud.
Trying MS Office 365, Google Docs & Sheets, OpenOffice,
Trying iCloud, Google Drive, OneDrive, DropBox, WD MyCloud.
So far each has fatal flaw.
Suggestions?

Office, Office for Mac and the Office Apps for iOS can all read from and write to OneDrive. You can create folder structures however you want them, and read files from them normally though the Apps.
You do need an Office 365 subscription for certain editing features on the iPhone Office Apps though.
As to a backup, from either the PC or the Macbook, you should be able to simply drag and drop your files to the external drive form the OneDrive folder.

You can access your documents from anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection. Updates are applied almost immediately.
Why did One Drive not work?

Change the char at column 47 of line 356 from a ',' to a '.' and it should work perfectly.
In case that does not work for you, you might try *showing us your SSCCE that fails!*
In the meantime, here are two code sources that can save WAVs.

- I also read another thread you started where a person mentioned the code tags. Not only did you fail to take their advice, but entirely ignored the comment. If you intend ignoring the advice offered, why are you asking? Or perhaps more to the point, why should we answer? If you read anything that you do not understand, please ask what the person means, rather than ignore them and blunder on, as you seem to be intent on doing.

I'm involved in fashion and would like to know which Adobe program would be suitable for importing images and my company logo to design fabric and send as image to fabric printers? Thanks

Adobe Illustrator. Your company logo should be a vector file. Image files can be "Placed" in Illustrator. Artwork created for printing can be drawn in Illustrator and saved as .ai, .eps, and .pdf files which can be imported into your printer's RIP. But, check with your print vendors and see what they require. This does not rule-out Photoshop, however Photoshop can be limited. So, it would be a good idea to have Photoshop and Illustrator loaded in your workstation with Illustrator being the go-to application.

Is there a way to drop an image into indesign and then have that file name captioned underneath?

Hello! I'm looking to help a colleague into streamlining a process. We have to display images full page in an Indesign Document and every time we drop and image onto a page, we then need to edit the caption underneath with the file name. Just wondering if there is a way to automate this process? Any scripts available?

When you place an image you can turn on the capture function. There are normal and live versions. The normal labeling creates a text as text is, the live version creates a variable which would change if the image or the text in the meta information changes, but it behaves like a single character which causes problems how the text will run in the text frame.
What is drawn out of the Meta must be set up before in the caption set up option.
When you drag and drop an image from the finder or from Bridge you can't activate this option.
BTW I use it a different way which seems to me faster. I assign a shortcut to the labeling command and when I have imported the image, I click this shortcut and in a second step I apply an Object style which will format the text frame including Paragraph style which might be different on a dark or bright photo or upon a graphic.
Normally I edit all meta information in Adobe Bridge, which is the fastest way to handle it.

HT202879 I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago. Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version. The app store shows the download. HUH?!?

I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you.

Howdy Biswajit,
The IMAQ and Vision ActiveX controls you are using with Visual Basic 6 do not install with Measurement Studio. They are installed when you install the IMAQ software and include support for Visual Studio 6. Upgrading to Measurement Studio 8.0.1 will have no effect on your IMAQ controls since they are not related to one another. Purchasing Measurement Studio Professional or Enterprise packages allows you Visual Studio 6 support for other ActiveX components. Refer to this link for a list of ActiveX components included in those packages.
If you are asking about using the ActiveX controls in .NET, then take a look at this KnowledgeBase entitled Do NI-IMAQ and NI Vision Support Microsoft Visual Studio .NET?
Hope this clarifies things!

Help! Bought a used iMac (2008) and I'm trying to install quicktime but its asking me for a password and has Apple in the "Name" spot. How do I retrieve or reset the password?

Can anyone help...
I just bought a used iMac (2008) from an ebay seller and I'm trying to install quicktime but its asking me for a password and has Apple in the "Name" spot.
How do I retrieve or reset the password?
It came with the upgrade of Mountain Lion but I cannot find quicktime in the applications. When I try to install anything this Installer Password thing comes up... so I'm stuck.

I think you're slightly misunderstanding something, so maybe I'll try to chime in, even though everyone has said it in various ways.
Before OSX 10.7 (aka Lion) came out, the upgrades to OSX belonged to the Mac and not the user. Probably there was a technical legality in the user agreement that you couldn't do that, but everyone did. I could sell a Mac with Snow Leopard (or anything before that) by just erasing the hard drive, and reinstalling OSX. Then ship it to the buyer. Now, I was pretty honest as a seller, and including not only the original installation discs but also any upgrade. I would only sell a Mac if I was replacing it, so I always was getting the brand new version.
With OSX 10.7, upgrading was done online, with no disks. So the upgrades were tied to an Apple ID rather than the machine. Recently, I sold a MacBook Pro (to upgrade to a 27" iMac), which came with Lion. I had promised the buyer that it would come with Mountain Lion, but I didn't know that the upgrade was tied to my Apple ID. I made good with the buyer by sending along a $20 Apple App Store card so that she could upgrade to Lion.
So what everyone is saying here is that you need the original Installation discs or Snow Leopard disk to reinstall and wipe out the Mountain Lion that is on your Mac. It doesn't belong to you, it belongs to the seller, and without his Apple ID and password, you cannot use it. Once you do a reinstall of Snow Leopard, then you can upgrade to Lion and then to Mountain Lion. I do not believe you can upgrade directly to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, but I'm not sure.
If the seller claimed that you were getting Mountain Lion, then he was lying to you (or being more civil, maybe he just didn't know like I did). If you bought the used machine from Amazon Sellers or from eBay, then you have recourse through the feedback system or through PayPal. If you bought it any other way, you're on your own.

Space between DIV with image and DIV with image background

I have just about finalized the new design on my website. The only issue I am having now is on the gallery page. There is a thin space between a DIV with an image and DIV with an image background. I am using these DIV's to give the illusion of a blue border. If you look at any of the other main pages on the site the space is not there. Any ideas?

i had problem with my apps,they open for a while and closes with in seconds i cant acess them and i had this with all apss,expect apple apps

Do you have a lot of apps? Did you use a lot of apps recently? If so, many of them may still be resident in memory even if you aren't currently using them. Double-tap the home key and you should see the app tray with a list of most recently used programs. Press and hold the icons in the tray and remove the ones you don't use often to remove them from memory. Powering off and then back on might also help.
My wife's iPod does that sometimes, and it's usually because we run out of memory due to apps remaining in memory even when not used. The suggestion above is how we normally fix the problems.
