Modifying extra buttons to a Control?!?!

I want to change a simple numerical control that has the increment/decrement buttons so that it has two sets of the increment/decrement buttons on. I want to be able to use one set for jumps of say the standard 1 unit but then the second set for smaller, say 0.1.
Is this possible, I've looked through the control editor with no luck?
If anyone knows that would be great.
If this cannot be achieved is it possible to speed up the increments when you press continuously on it because at the moment they are painfully slow?
Cheers

Here's what i've done so far, but using three controls, two for the buttons and then they add together to write into the third control. Anyone got any way of making it so the buttons directly change control 3, i.e how it is each set of buttons have got to be pressed to get to zero.
Thinking about it the increment/decrement buttons could be bouleans which just add a number each time to the property node of the third control.Bit messy though

[SOLVED] Extra Button in GNOME Status Menu

Hello,
I'm going to have to apologize right off the bat for this rather vague question, but I really don't have much to go on (yet). I've done a lot of Googling to try to figure this out but nothing has turned up so far.
Now that that's out of the way, here's the problem:
An extra button has shown up in my GNOME status menu. The image is a link to a (slightly) higher quality version. The button doesn't seem to do anything, except when I click it the icon changes to this:
A second click restores the first icon, and the cycle repeats. I'm running GNOME 3.14, and the icon showed up a couple weeks back while I was having a DE install-fest and trying out Cinnamon and KDE. As far as I can tell, it showed up around the time I set those up, but that could also just be a coincidence. Now that that adventure is through, Cinnamon and KDE have been uninstalled and I've done my best to rm any remaining config files. My second Arch machine has no such button (and has only ever run GNOME). Honestly, it doesn't make any practical difference, so I ignored it at first, but its unexplained existence has come to disturb me.
I've tried searching for others with a similar problem, looked at GNOME extentions that themselves add a button (such as https://github.com/arelange/gnome-shell … ate-status), and perused through the GNOME-shell source code in an attempt familarize myself with what was going on. I'm rather inexperienced with that sort of programming, so my endeavor was not as insightful as I had hoped. As a final act of desperation, I ran
pacman -S gnome
but of course, with no success. If anyone could point me in the right direction or offer suggestions, it would be very appreciated!

Ahh, yes, I think you are right. In fact, my relatively old and bulky Acer 5742 does have an accelerometer (presumably for HDD shock protection?):
$ cat /proc/bus/input/devices
I: Bus=0019 Vendor=0000 Product=0000 Version=0000
N: Name="Acer BMA150 accelerometer"
P: Phys=wmi/input1
S: Sysfs=/devices/virtual/input/input13
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=event11 js0
B: PROP=0
B: EV=9
B: ABS=7
I checked and the bma150 module wasn't loaded, so I went ahead and loaded it and started waiving my 5.7lb laptop around like a madman. No screen rotation, and I'm not sure how to read the raw input from the device, but I'm sure there are a plethora of reasons GNOME might detect an accelerometer and put a button there even if it isn't designed for this sort of input or properly configured or supported. If that's the case, there's no need to figure out how to get rid of the button, but I am curious if other people have similar experiences or perhaps the opposite (you can see an accelerometer but no button) just for some level of certainty this is the correct explanation. For starters, my other machine that does not have the button also does not have an accelerometer listed in /proc/bus/input/devices.

Modify Go button

Hi all,
I would like to modify "Go" button. I have found excellent blog how to create one "Go" button.
http://sranka.wordpress.com/2008/11/09/how-to-replace-multi-go-button-prompt-by-one/
Using this logic I would like to create something like this.
I have "main page" in dashboard, where users define parameter important for other pages in dashboard. In that main page I am having prompt with "Go" button. For me the problem is when I click on "Go" button parameter of prompt is saved, and user must click on first page to view data, I would like that when user click on "Go" it automatic sends him to first page of dashboard with selected parameter.
Is there any way to do this?
I have tried whit this script by applying link of first page, but it does not catch selected parameter.
<script>
function customCall()
{try{var aElm=document.getElementsByTagName('table');var tTableArray = new Array();var k = 0;for(var i=0; i<aElm.length; i++) {if(aElm.className=='GFPBox') {tTableArray[k] = document.getElementById(aElm[i].id);k++;}}GFPDoFilters_samvi('',tTableArray,true);
}catch(e){alert(' XXX ' + e);}}</script><td class="GFPSubmit"><table cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td class="XUIPromptEntry"><span class="minibuttonOn"><a onclick="javascript:customCall();" ref="javascript:void(null)" href=http://10.128.1.45:9704/analytics2/saw.dll?Dashboard&_scid=ixcW*p0EGH8&PortalPath=%2Fshared%2F02%ABC%2F_portal%2F2.1%20ABC&Page=1.%20ABC%201&col1="Col1"."Col"&val1=@{tmp_val}>GO</a>

How do you modify the appearance of a control

I want to add a red arc on the outer edge of a meter control. The arc should only cover about 120 degrees. Is there a way to modify the graphics of a control?
Thanks in advance.

Yes. It's discussed in the manual.
You can also peruse this example: Customizing the Gauge Control in LabVIEW.
If you search you'll find lots more information.

You have to choose – one settigf or another.
The thing is.your HD clips will look better in an SD project than your SD clips will in an HD project.
WIthout knowing much more about your project and the kind of content, it's really hard to be specific. But generally I'd let my project settings be guided by what fraction of my timeline will be made up of HD clips and how much SD clips. If it's 75% HD, I'd probably do an HD project…and so on,
Good luck.

Modify the Buttons of a TitleBar of a windowedApplication

Hi all,
I'd like to modify the button of my title bar of my windowed
application (it's an AIR application).
At first, I wanted to change the title rendrer so I modify my
application-app.xml and add the following lign :
[code]<systemChrome>none</systemChrome>[/code] (au lieu
de standard)
So my title is well displayed thanks those ligns in my css
file :
[code]WindowedApplication {
color: #000000;
backgroundAlpha: 1;
title-text-style-name : "titleTextStyle";
buttonStyleName: "buttonBarButton";
firstButtonStyleName: "firstButtonBarButton";
lastButtonStyleName: "lastButtonBarButton";
background-image : "styles/OldSchool/bg.gif";
backgroundColor: #EEEEEE;
.titleTextStyle {
font-family : luna;
font-size : 30;
}[/code]
By I don't manage to customize my buttons that are grey and
small (not handsome) instead of the fancy colors as usual (red,
yellow, green). I saw in debug that the application had a TitleBar
with a closeButton, a minimize and a maximize, but the following
ligns don't change anything..
[code]TitleBar
closeButtonDisabledSkin:

with the wmp11.swf contained in the same folder as my css

Does anybody knows how to resolve it ?
Thanks !

Hello Casperloo,
Your last statement makes me a liitle suspicious of what's going. So you cannot create a property node such as the ones below.
What about manually left clicking one of the properties and changing it like in the image below?
Also is this only occurring with the specific property you are trying to utilize or all Daqmx Timing properties?

GPO Security Zones and Content Ratings "Modify Settings" buttons are disabled

Task: Trying to modify a GPO so that specific users who logon to Remote Desktop Servers will have a lower Internet security level for Internet Explorer.
We have two Windows Server 2008 Domain Controllers, when I access the GPO using the Group Policy Management Console and Editor on either of the two Domain Controllers, then navigate to User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer
Maintenance > Security > Security Zones and Content Ratings, the available "Modify Settings" buttons are both disabled.
I've read through several forum posts relating to this and the closest solution mentioned was to turn off IE ESC for Administrators on both Domain Controllers. I've done this and it nothing has changed as a result. Is there a way enable the "Modify Settings"
buttons, or is there another way to achieve the task mentioned at the top of this post?

Hi,
We need to import these settings before we modify them.
To import security zones and privacy settings from our computer using IEM:
Click
Import the current security zones and privacy settings
To import content ratings from our computer:
Click
Import the current Content Ratings settings
Regarding how to configure Security Zones and Content Ratings, the following article can be referred to for more information.

[SOLVED] G602 Gaming mouse extra buttons detected as keyboard keys

I have a Logitech G602 mouse with a bunch of extra buttons. I am familiar with xmodmap, xinput, xbindkeys, and easystroke.
If I use xev to test for input events, my back/forward buttons work like most mice- I get values of button 8 and button 9. However, when I use the other extra mouse buttons, I get IDENTICAL values to pressing 1, 2, or 3 on the keyboard respectively.
As an example, say I open a terminal. I can press these extra mouse buttons and it will "type" 1, 2 or 3 into the terminal just as if I had hit those numbers on my keyboard. If I hit shift, it will "type" !, @, and # just as if I had typed on the keyboard.
If I change the keycodes, I lose function of my 1, 2, and 3 keys. If I use xbindkeys to bind a command to the extra mouse buttons, pressing 1, 2, and 3 on the keyboard will run those commands!
The only thing I can think of is using a different keyboard layout, or that the mouse isnt supported at the kernel level (pressing extra mouse keys with X killed again "types" 1, 2, or 3) and I need to file a bug report somewhere. Where upstream do I file a bug report if this isnt fixable?
Any ideas at all?

As I understood remapping of these buttons works fine only in Windows with its windows drivers and software.
For those with or looking to buy a Logitech G602, the answer is unfortunately Windows for a fix I had figured beforehand that it was some kind of assignment issue as I didnt see it possible for 2 different devices to be assigned the same keysym, but thats apparently due to my lack of understanding how such codes are assigned.
After reading the above response, I installed the Logitech software on a buddys windows computer and changed the (top 3) buttons to Shift, Alt, and Super- this allows me to use shift/alt/super + left/middle/right click for use within my wm (Openbox). This is a permanent change until you change it again, so at least you only need windows once.
I had searched around to see if anyone had this mouse working with Linux, but couldnt find any mentions. I can now at least confirm for others all the buttons will work and will be detected if you reprogram the mouse from windows. You can even reassign the battery check G6 button (which I did) and the DPI settings buttons near the left click (I left those alone for gimp work).
I tried Wine for the software without much hope, and indeed while the software installed fine, the program couldnt detect the mouse with it plugged in. It has been my experience that device detection in wine is a crapshoot at best. Anyways, problem solved..

Buttons in a control block

Greetings,
I have a simple question. Do buttons in a control block automatically act on other blocks within a form or do they need to be told what block to act on.
I have a template form that consists of a control block with a couple buttons such as save, clear and exit. My scheme is to bring in the template and introduce other blocks that write to and query the database. The buttons are not necessarily doing what they are supposed to.
Bradley

Hi Bradley,
As per my understanding you need a toolbar of buttons performing generic actions (e.g COMMIT, CLEAR_RECORD)on all the blocks in a form.
Ensure that the Mouse Navigate property of all the buttons is set to No. Otherwise, the associated code ( I am assuming all code is in WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED)will be performed on the block the button belongs to.

Is it possible to create run and stop button on the control pannel instead fo using the ones on the tool bar?

I have created a program which runs to all my specifications. The final thing I'd like to do is to be able to run it from the contrl panel.
Can i create a run and stop button on the control panel or am i limited to using the little white arrow button on the toolbar?

When you say Control Panel are you referring to the Front Panel of your VI? If so then yes you can have the program start automatically upon being opened and close with a button push on the Front Panel. Let me know if this is what you were looking for.

Exit button on Playback Control

I'm using Captivate 1. All of the buttons work except the
Exit button on the Playback Control. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
TILOTOHA

TILOTOHA,
If the Exit button on the playbar isn't working, I'm afraid
there's not much to be done about that. We have no control over the
functionality of the playback controls.
That said, are you previewing the movie from a web server?
Previewing locally or from a network drive imposes security
restrictions on the browser and the Flash Player, which is the
cause of most "it doesn't work" reports in these forums. The only
way to truly know if something is working is to test your files
from a web server, where the security restrictions are much
lighter.
Everybody Else,
I'm assuming you're adding your own Exit buttons on the last
slide? If so, there may be a better way. As most folks probably
know, the "correct" way to close a window at the end of a project
is to go into the Project Preferences and set the action for the
Project end options to "Close project". This usually works.
As a backup, you can also insert some Javascript code in the
slide navigation for the last slide in your project. This will
"double your chances" of being able to close the window, without
the user having to click anything:
1. Double-click the last slide and on the Slide Properties
dialog, select Execute JavaScript from the Navigation dropdown.
2. Click the Ellipses (...) button to the right of the
JavaScript field and on the Javascript dialog, type the following
code:
window.top.opener = window.top; window.top.close();
The extra bit of code at the beginning is an attempt to
prevent IE from asking the user whether they want to close the
window. It may not actually work, but it doesn't seem to do any
harm to leave it in.
Jill -
If the slide navigation thing doesn't work for you, the
"button" solution is simply to add a button to the slide,
double-click to view it's properties, change the On success action
to Execute JavaScript and then enter the code as shown
above.
