Labview pauses when dialog box displayed

When I display a dialog box in LabView, the program waits for the user to click ok. I would like for the program to not wait but keep running after it displays the box. How can I do this and how can I customize the dialog box?

You drop an Invoke Node from the Application palette onto the block diagram, wire up a reference to the subVI, right click the invoke node and select the method. There's an example here that shows how an invoke node is used to make a front panel visible. There are other examples on the developer zone and several have been posted to this forum. You question seems to pop up once week or so and a little searching of the forum will give you a lot of examples.

    You can change the Lync Client Toast Timeout behavior by modifying the following registry keys:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator]
    “IMToastTimeout”=dword:0000000a
    “IMToastNoAutoAcceptTimeout”=dword:0000000f

  • R&R 4.10 no Password dialog box displayed when recovering a Backup

    Hello all,
    I am using a T61 8898-6dg with XP and r&r 4.10.314
    After reinstalling the system from a XP CD I tried to reinstall an R&R backup from a network share.
    R&r starts well showed me the backup files and all the files included in the backup. So I was able to select the files I want to recover and the recovery process starts.
    Because the backup is secured by a password, a dialog box should appear and asking for the password. But now, r&r stops and nothing happens. I think it is waiting for the password. But I cannot see an dialog box for entering a password. Even pressing the Alt and Tab keys to bring the dialog box to the foreground don’t help.
    In the rr.log file, I found the following entry:
    Sat May 10 12:27:36 2008 RescueRecovery: Running: C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Lenovo\mnd\mapdrv.exe *
    Sat May 10 12:27:42 2008 RescueRecovery: No user found to display dialog '2', waiting...
    The same problem I have with r&r 4.20
    Any hint what I can do to be able to enter the password?
    many thanks in advance
    Juergen
    Stuttgart/Germany

    when the magic mouse is not connected it seems to work fine, I usually click the trackpad and the system prompts me for a password - I enter my password and go back to work.
    However every time the problem has occurred I have left the computer with the magic mouse connected, when I return I move the magic mouse, the screensaver stops "moving" but I don't see the prompt for my password, it's almost as if the password dialog is behind the screen saver.
    Hope this helps...

  • Dialog box display won't update after screen blank or being moved

    I have a modeless dialog box used for status display by a plugin I wrote for Acrobat. Everything works fine until the screen blanks or the user moves the dialog box on the screen, at which point no further updates to the dialog box are displayed. My plugin consumes 100% of CPU for long periods of time so the program can appear dead without this display being updated, but nothing I have tried seems to make any difference. The dialog box is generated with ADM and things I have tried include calling "Update" on the dialog box at regular intervals, the windows "Sleep" function to yield the CPU periodically, and a host of similar tactics.
    I'm guessing all the code will get run together once I click submit, but here is how I create the diaglog box (it was working fine without the "WinAppRegisterModelessDialog", but I saw a reference to it elsewhere and tried it to see if it would help, not sure if it actually serves any useful purpose):
    statWin = sADMDialog->Create(inPluginRef, DIALOG_ID, IDB_DIALOG1, kADMModalDialogStyle, NULL, NULL, 0);
    WinAppRegisterModelessDialog((HWND)sADMDialog->GetWindowRef(statWin));
    infoBox = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, 5, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
    // Status header
    coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
    coords.bottom = coords.top + 12;
    statHeader = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
    // Status line
    coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
    coords.bottom = coords.top + 12;
    statLine = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMTextStaticType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
    // Progress bar
    coords.top = coords.bottom + 10;
    coords.bottom = coords.top + 15;
    progress = sADMDialog->CreateItem(statWin, kADMUniqueItemID, kADMProgressBarType, &coords, NULL, NULL, 0);
    sADMItem->SetMinIntValue(progress, 0);
    sADMItem->SetMaxIntValue(progress, totalPages);
    // Set window size, and other attributes
    sADMDialog->Size(statWin, coords.right + BORDER, coords.bottom + BORDER);
    sADMDialog->SetText(statWin, PROD_NAME " - Progress");
    // Set header for status line
    sADMItem->SetText(statHeader, " Page # % Complete Estimated Time remaining");
    // Initialize progress bar
    sADMItem->Update(progress);
    Updates are currently performed with the following code segment. The last two lines are my attempts to get the display to update once the screen blanks:
    // show it
    sADMItem->SetText(statLine, textBuf);
    // Update progress bar
    sADMItem->SetIntValue(progress, pagesCompleted);
    // Force display update/refresh
    sADMDialog->Update(statWin);
    // Yield for display update (in case of screen blank or user changes)
    Sleep((DWORD)100);
    Everything works fine until the window is moved or screen blanking occurs, after that nothing seems to work, all updates to the box cease to be displayed. Any suggestions?

    OK guys here's an update. First I went to BIOS and updated the initial display setting to "LCD panel only" from "Auto". At first I thought it helped, because when I worked at the laptop without the external screen attached, the internal LCD panel resumed normally from off (previously this didn't work).
    But today while I was in the office with my external 19" LCD screen attached, and both of them went off after being idle for 10 minutes, the internal LCD panel didn't resume again. So I've tried the Fn + F5 key combination to switch between modes, and I switched from dualview back to single. The internal LCD panel blinked for a second and then turned off immediately, and from that moment on, I was without picture on both of them. SO I ended up hibernating and resuming again. :( An important note - as soon as the computer began hibernating, the LCD went on and I could see the whole progress of hibernation before it turned off.
    Also another note - when I'm in dualview, I always have keep the internal LCD panel as the primary screen. So unfortunately, when it doesn't resume, I don't have access to the taskbar etc to try more things...
    Any more thoughts?
    Thanks again!

  • Import dialog box displaying off screen

    When I'm in the office, I work in a dual-monitor environment.
    However, when working at home, I have only my laptop monitor.
    If I need to import something - html file, template file,
    etc. - the dialog box is displaying off screen.
    I've shut down and restarted, but still the same result. When
    I try to resize the RH window, it resizes off screen.
    My display properties indicate only one monitor.
    How to fix?
    Thanks!
    Cindy

    Hi Cindy
    Sounds like you need some multiple monitor managing software.
    Try these:
    MultiMon (Free)
    click here
    UltraMon (Paid)
    click here
    Other than that, you can try flying blind and navigating
    using the keyboard or maybe bump your resolution to the highest
    possible setting and perhaps that will bring the dialog either
    partially or totally into view.
    Cheers... Rick

  • IBooks won't rebuild library when dialog box requires that I rebuild

    When I open iBooks in OSX 10.9 Mavericks, a dialog box appears saying my library could not be located.  It gives the option to 1) Quit, 2) Try Again, and 3) Rebuild Library.
    Selecting Quit quits iBooks
    Selecting Try Again immediately pops up the same dialog box
    Selecting Rebuild quits iBooks.  There is no crash log that appears (otherwise I would have posted it here)...it just quits.
    I am able to see my iBooks library files buried in my HD in the correct location.

  • Itunes freezes with windows 7 when dialog boxes are opening?

    I have an issue with itunes (i am running whatever the latest version is) and Windows 7 - it freezes for long periods when I do any actions which lead to additional windows pr dialog boxes to appear.  For example when I click to create a new playlist there is sometimes a very long wait for options window to appear, when I click to delete a song and waiting for confirmation box to appear, etc.  I have been experiencing this issue with every version of Itunes and windows

    It is enough. I am fed up now.
    iTunes does not update automatically on my Windows 7 (64) and never did on my previous Windows 7 (32).
    Yes, update freezes again and again as it did on my old computer. So what the hek do you want me to update?
    And no:
    I do NOT want to borwse any more tutorials.
    I do NOT want to personalize my experience.
    I do NOT want to check out any community discussions.
    I do NOT want to 'see around the communities'!
    I just want to have fun! If possible with my iPod, if not I'll change that to another device too (and in order not to unsatisfy any other person not even donate it to an NGO).
    One more chance for Apple an iTunes:
    Just tell me what to do in order to fix my update problems - or else I shall be gone.
    CU? Your decision.

  • Pausing at dialog boxes

    Just doing a simple tutorial on Content Aware Fill, a couple of things came to mind
    One step was recorded as "Choose Edit > Fill to Fill the current" - the second "Fill" should be lower case.
    More importantly, I would normally want to accompany an instruction to "Select Content Aware from the drop-down menu for Fill Contents" with a screenshot of the Edit>Fill  dialog box. I don't think that can be done now, but could it be added to the recording process?

  • Firefox download dialog box - display program list in combobox

    Ever since the re installation of my OS, whenever I wanted to open a file I always had the option to choose witch program to use from a combobox in the download file dialog box (which was OK, since I use multiple programs for the same file type). But after using Firefox for a month or so it suddenly changed and now instead of the combobox i have the "browse" button. How can I set Firefox to use the combobox again?

    Select one of them, or do a search for the program you want. Then
    select it. Then say what you get. Note that later, you should be able to
    select another program thru the '''Browse''' button if you want to
    change what you are using. Also, '''Do Not''' use the
    '''Do This Automatically''' option. That will lock in the setting.
    While it can be unset, it is hard to do.

  • ITunes disables when dialog box appears

    Hello all, if you can solve this problem, I will be forever indebted to you. Whenever a dialog box appears on my iTunes, it automatically goes into the background, but the main window deactivates, not allowing me to do anything. I cannot enter anything into the dialog box, I can not do anything with iTunes. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I have songs to buy, but can't buy them!

    I don't undersatnd what you're talking about.

  • Dialog box display issues

    Thanks for taking the time to help me with this.
    I've been having issues for a few weeks, first with Acrobat Pro X, and now with Acrobat Pro XI.  I can open a pdf fine, but when I try to print, or view the properties, or show the tools on the right side of the screen.  There is no text.  The print window shows a window with some button outlines, but no text.  Same with the other windows and tools.  The "open" command does show the window as it should appear.
    Occasionally, the print window is all blown out of proportion.  I will see two or three words across the entire screen and the window itself goes off the right for several screen widths.
    This is only happing with Acrobat, but the labels on the buttons in other programs do look a little funny.
    I've tried re-installing Acrobat; upgrading Acrobat; Scanning and fixing registry errors; scanning for viruses and malware.  None of it made any difference.  I did also get an error message that said "Acrobat failed to send a DDE command"  Haven't been able to find a solution for that to see if it helps.
    I'm using a Dell, running Windows 7 Pro; Creative Cloud apps; and Acrobat Pro XI
    Here is an image of the screen to better show what I'm looking at.
    Thanks very much to anyone who can shed some light on the issue.

    This type of thing can happen when a font is missing from your system. For example, see this previous thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4063094

  • Proxy Authentication dialog box displayed very often

    Hello,
    since iOS 8.0 / 8.02 our iPads displays very often (somtimes more than 3 times a minute) for proxy authentication credentials.
    We tried it with
    - a payload in our Apple configurator (wifi) profile with automatic proxy config http://proxy/proxy.pac
    - a manual configuration without profile and manual stored credentials and manual proxy configuration in the wifi connection
    I think the manual configuration is a little bit better, but still inacceptable.
    With iOS 7 and the same iPad and same apple configurator profile we don't have this problems.
    Every help is appreciated.

  • Automatically click OK or close LabVIEW popup dialog box

    I am able to automate user actions on any front panels within the project by modifying its values (signaling) through VI References, but I can't figure out how to access a popup dialog box to automatically close it or click OK.
    Is there a way to do this without replacing all LabVIEW built-in dialog box calls with a custom one?

    Just curious, why automate user interactions? Why not have a "mode" you are in. If it's a user interaction mode, you do what the user chooses. If it's not set in user interaction mode, you just use a state machine to go to the next step, and you don't show the dialog.
    My suggestion here seems much simpler then having value signaling propery nodes all over the block diagram.
