Minimum screen size exceeds size of the main screen

Everytime that I modify the VI Properties, I get an error message when I click OK, "The minimum screen size you set exceeds the size of the main screen". But I have the minimum size already set to the current window size by using the button, 'Set to Current Window Size'. My window size is 1130X860. If I click OK in the error message, my VI works fine. But why did I get the error message? I can make the error message not appear if I set the minimum window size significantly less than my current window size. But I don't want to allow users to make the window smaller than the current size.
If I create a new VI, the new VI doesn't have the same problem. So, it isn't a problem with my installation. I've played with all of the window size and other settings in VI Properties, but I couldn't find a setting that would fix this error message.
I'm using LV 8.0.1 on XP.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Paul Mueller

Paul,
I played with this a little bit and it seems like this might just be a bug in LabVIEW 8. You say that this only happens in one of your VIs but it happened with me in every VI that I opened in LabVIEW 8. It doesn't seem like this error message should affect anything in your application though. It's still restricting the window to the appropriate size. I also tried this out in LabVIEW 8.20 and the error message doesn't come up so it looks like it was fixed in this version of LabVIEW.
I hope this helps,

One way is to periodically (say every week) create a new file to store the actions and then, when the space taken up by all the files is too large, delete the oldest one.
You can also have your application periodically (say the first time you write to the file on any calendar day) check the size of the file and, when it gets too big, copy all of the actions in the file after a given time (presumably there is an associated timestamp with each action) to a new file. Then delete the old file.

The size of the main frame

Hi
im using swing, and i want my main frame to be maximized
i use this code :
cipherplus win = new cipherplus();
   Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
        Dimension temp = toolkit.getScreenSize();
        int h = temp.height;
       int w = temp.width;
        win.setSize(w,h-30);
        win.show();the prolem is, and i dont have any clue why, when i use the resolution size 800 * 600 i dont see everything that is on the frame...
so can anybody please tell me what is the problem?

Two things:
1) There was a mistake in what I gave you. What you have will work if there is only 1 bar, but it doesn't work if there is a bar on top and one on the bottom.
Replace:
screenSize.width -= insets.left - insets.right;
screenSize.height -= insets.bottom - insets.top;With this:
screenSize.width -= (insets.left + insets.right);
screenSize.height -= (insets.bottom + insets.top);2) Don't forget to set the location to be at the insets. for you it would be adding this line:
win.setLocation(insets.left, insets.top);Put that between setSize() and show().

Can I slim down the size of the Aperture Library by moving the Preview files elsewhere?

Hi all,
I have an Aperture library of almost 20,000 photos, dating back to around 2007. Almost all the master images are stored on an external drive (backed up of course), with only my recent and 'in progress' masters being stored in the library itself. Previously I have had my library split up into one library for each year, with the older years libraries being stored on the external drive where the masters are, in order to keep the size of my 'current' library down. So my current library, stored on my internal SSD, contained only photos from this year and last year, and only a few of the masters for these images. Confusing? Sorry!
Now, I recently decided to consolidate the libraries into one huge library, because it was annoying to have to switch between libraries to find older photos when I wanted them. I did this, leaving all but the recent masters on the external drives (referenced). I thought that the size of the main library would remain reasonably sized, since there were no extra masters being moved into it. However, the library has grown massively - up to over 70GB, which is huge when you consider it's on a 128GB SSD which is also my startup drive.
I'm pretty certain the reason for the huge size increase is that the Previews for all the older images are stored in the Library file, rather than anywhere else. This makes sense - they are previews, they're supposed to be able to be viewed with the external drives disconnected. So my question is this. Am I able to change the location of the preview files to be on my OTHER internal hard drive (non-SSD, much larger), so that they're still available without the external drives, but are not cluttering up my startup drive. And, if not, what should I do!?
Thanks a lot

Glad it worked, but permit, if you will, some observations:
-- Bloated Previews are a known Aperture bug, which came and went within a few updates in Aperture 3. Getting them back to the proper size is simply a elegant step to take.
-- A Preview set to your largest screen size and a quality of 6-8 should be all but indistinguishable from the Master at 72-100 dpi screen image. (Not print resolution.) I REALLY doubt you are going to loose any quality.
-- While using a symlink to stick the Previews on a HD is clever, it may also defeat the whole purpose of using your SSD. Previews are read a lot and are, I suspect, used for all adjustments at less than full resolution. (N.B. I could be VERY wrong on this.) Thus, depending on the amount of RAM on your Mac, you could end up reading and rereading your Previews over a slower link and doing this a lot. You own use will quickly determine if this is an issue or not.
I have blathered on, at length, about what I think matters for size and speed here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17959625#17959625. Some of this may be of use.
I went through a lot of these issues when I tried to fit everything on a 128 GB SSD, so I know some of the issues you are facing. As I noted before, you really only need a Library (minus most Masters) of about 30 GB and that is with large, high quality Previews.
I actually took the SSD out and stuck it in an ancient MacBookPro (in preparation for a trip to Blighty this summer) and have not noticed a huge drop in Aperture speed. (I do miss the speed of applications launch, restart, however.) One thing that I did find that made a small, but nice difference, was keeping all of the Masters on a separate, dedicated drive. Once defragged, etc. that was very fast. Don't know if you could achieve the same results by partitioning a larger drive, but it might well be fun to find out.

How to set minimum font size in mail app?

How can I set a minimum font size in mail app? I have received mails that have a font size that seems to be smaller than 9pt which results being nearly unreadable. Sure its possible to increase the font size by pressing cmd + "+" but this setting isn't remembered for the next time I open these mails. Prior to Mavericks there was a solution to write the minimum font size to the defaults. Anything similar for Yosemite?

No, this only applies to the font size for the header displayed above the mail content and the font type and size of the Rich Text mails your are composing. With this setting you cannot modify the font size or type of received messages.

Smartform doesn't show preview when the records exceed the main window size

Hi
When i print the smart form having line items exceeding the main window size on the page it does not show the preview. The internal table loop goes into infinite loop. Is there any means whereby if the records don't fit on the main window of the page will be continued to the next page. Right now I have no clue how it is to be resolved. I feel the problem is in layout, as when i remove the main window the internal table code works fine and it does not move in infinite loop. Please help me resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance

Hi
I have deleted the table from main window and instead inserted a loop.
Also i created the two pages. But the problem still persists.
But for my requirement my each line item in the main window has 3 lines.
Also my layout will be the same for all pages so is there a need to create a new page.
Is there any mechanism whereby if the line items dont fit on the mainwindow of the page will automatically continue on another page without having to define it.. please guide? Right now the smartform goes in infinite loop if it doesn't fit in main window size
Thanks

How do you adjust the font size for the tabs and icons around the screen?

How do you adjust the font size of tabs and and icons to ake them larger?

sfcalling
Click on the text in the menu so that you see the bounding box around it. Look to the right of the Movie Menu customization workspace, Adjustments Palette, Text and edit your text font style and size.
In this screenshot, "Glass Flowers" text in the main menu is selected and its Adjustments Palette Text editing opportunities are shown. To do comparable editing in the scene menu, click on the scene menu in the bin to bring its image up to the screen.
Please let us know if you are OK with the details.

, why do I get "Color Finesse requires a minimum screen size of 1024x768 yet I've got two full HD sc

Hello,
Once I try to open 'full interface' on color finesse 3 on After Effects CS5.5, why do I get: "Color Finesse requires a minimum screen size of 1024x768" yet I've got two full HD screens?
Thanks.

In addition to Dave's suggestions, if you haven't already done so, restart your computer. All we do is ask the OS for the screen size and check against 1024x768. We've seen on Windows that the OS gets confused sometimes and reports an incorrect size. Restarting fixes that.
When checking your screen size, be sure to subtract the size of the toolbar and any similar add-ons you might be running. Those all reduce the usable screen size, and we've seen cases (mostly laptops) where that reduces the height of the screen below 768.

ALV Grid with size of the whole screen

I need to create ALV Grid, that fits any screen. How can i do this?
I tried cl_gui_docing_container, but in the constructor it's possible to make it to occupy only 95% of the screen.

If you are using a custom control on the screen and then a custom container you can easily do this.
Create a screen(Size 200 x 240), place a custom control on the screen and make it to the max size 200 x 240. Now in the attributes of the custom control, check the Resizing option for both horizontal and vertical, with some minimum numbers there.
Now, your ALV grid automatically occupies all the space available on the screen irrespective of the size if the screen and you will have only one scroll bar.

Minimum Pack Size for issuance material from main store to wip

Hi Experts,
I have a problem, I have to maintain Minimum Lot Size and issuance (pack size) in the material master. Suppose Minimum Lot size of one material is 2000 and Pack size vendor provides is 400.
Means, when we place order, minimum order can be made for 2000 Nos and when we issue the material to WIP from Main Store the minimum issue quantity should be 400.
How can we map in the system.
Please help me.
GR

HI,
Create one Alt Unit of measure like Box or Pkt and maintain Conversion factor 400 Nos = 1 Box or Pkt.
Don't maintain no. of Decimal for this new Alt. Unit and use this as a issue unit in Plant Data 1.
This is just an idea and not a perfect solution for this.But I think it will help to resolve your problem up to some extent not 100%.

Changing the minimum window size in Calendar

I keep two programs open side by side on one of my "Desktops." They fit next to each other side by side and filled the entire screen. iCal was one of those applications. Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, the default minimum window size appears to be larger than it was in Lion. Now Calendar.app obscures part of the other application on this desktop.
I've searched around on the internet for hours looking for a way to modify the minimum window size to restore the "side by side" configuration, but I have not been able to find anything.
Does anyone have any advice on how to tackle this?
Don

I just upgraded to mountain lion. I cannot reduce the size of ical to fit with mail on my 15" macbook pro. In checking around, the new calendar does not allow us to size the window as we want. This is a big miss for apple. we need to be able to size windows as we see fit. also, in lion, and now mountain lion, we only have the option of the stupid fake-leather looking calendar. We should have options for this, too.
Please let me know if there is a fix for sizing the ical window as we previously had in lion. Apple, if you are listening, go for simplicity and flexibility. Let us decide window sizes, look, and anything else.
thank you

How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

hi All
That's great when using SQL Dev.
But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
Appreciate for anyone to help us.
Thanks all.
Sigmasvn

You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK?

How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK? I need to know how much sreen real estate that is available on the users moniter. Is there some call that I can make from the SDK to discover the maximun X and Y coordinates?
Thanks,
Gregory

Currently, I am testing on multiple moniters and it is defaulting to the moniter designated as the #1 moniter. For our purposes, this is acceptable. Once the two documents have loaded, the user can move and re-size at will.

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus.

In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.
