Multiple panels of the same vi

I want to run a VI multiple times at the same time (in parallel).
That works in principle (dynamicaly load and run it in reentrant mode).
But I never get multiple copies of the frontpanel of that VI.
I tried several things, but I saw only one frontpanel of all the instances I started.
How can I do that ??

To dynamically create VIs with front panels you need to clone the VI. VI cloning can be done in many different ways, but if you want to build an executable of the code the attached example works very nicely.
Just unzip the archive as it is and open and run main.vi in the llb file, then hit the new graph button to create clones of a VI displaying a graph of data controlled from main.vi.
In this case I clone the VI by making copies of a VI that is included together with the llb/executable (when distributed I normally remove the diagramme of the VI), and I share data using a VI global.
Another approach is to call a VI template instead of copying, and set the start value of the controls using VI server functionality, you can probably find more info about
that if you search for VI cloning or cloning front panels.
VI cloning is very useful even if the VI is not going to show a front panel; if you make a client-server solution and want each client session to be handled in parallel make a session handler, clone it for each connection and pass the connection handle to the clones by putting them in a list together with the name of the clone to handle that connection...The clone searches through the list, finds the connection and starts handling the commands from the client.

  • Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?

    I've written a program in labview 7.1 to monitor/control a labview application running in the test cell through Remote Panel. I and my coworker can remotely monitor and/or control this labview application individually. But if my coworker has the remote panel displayed on his PC and I try to get the remote panel on my PC, I get a labview error (63) as below:
    "LabVIEW:  Serial port receive buffer overflow.
    LabVIEW:  The network connection was refused by the server."
    My question is: Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?
    Thanks in advance!

    Sorry I wasn't clear. The remote panel license is separate from the number of LabVIEW development licenses. Pricing information on remote panel licenses can be found here.

  • Opening multiple instances of the same vi

    Hi,
    I am having trouble opening multiple instances of the same vi.
    This vi that I am trying to create can be used like a message display window to display numbers, strings etc (just like labVIEW's display message control except that this vi will update the displayed controls every scan). So for example, I will like to have a subvi, lets call it popup.vi, where I wire in three inputs from my main vi (2 strings and 1 number). Now in my main.vi I have 2 numeric controls Num1 and Num2 with their KeyFocus property nodes.
    The intention is that when I select Num1 or Num2 numeric control with my mouse the KeyFocus boolean becomes true and the popup.vi logic kicks in. Meaning that the popup.vi runs and opens its front pane
    l displaying the two strings and one numeric value from the main.vi.
    The problem arises when I want to open and run multiple instances of the popup.vi.
    So when I click on Num1 with my mouse I want the popup.vi to open its front panel with a set of strings and number displayed. At the same time I would want to click on Num2 control and open another instance of the popup.vi with another set of strings and numeric value.
    Also, I saved the popup.vi as popup.vit but for some reason vi server will not open the popup.vit. I get a message that popup.vit is already in memory - cannot load.
    I have attached a sample of the main.vi and popup.vi program.
    Please let me know if you need further clarifications.
    I appreciate your help in this matter.
    Thanks

    You have to clone the VI. You say you have tried to use the .vit way of cloning...but in the example there is no use of VIT and the VI is called statically. If you want to open multiple instances of the same VI and the VI has a user interface (or needs to be a unique instance of the VI every time even though it's called the same place in the diagram, not the case here though) you need to do it dynamically, i.e. with an invoke node.
    There is actually a problem doing just that, it causes a memory leak...but that won't be a problem unless the VI is called frequently / the software will be running over very long periods of time. You can see an example of it here (attached to my reply to the question):

  • How to have multiple images on the same screen? like in the movies where you see several actions at

    how to have multiple images on the same screen? like in the movies where you see several actions at the same time ....
    i don't find  a tutorial in adobe tv....
    thanks !!

    The short answer is that you'll put the source clip(s) for each inset on a different video track, all stacked up. Then use the Scale and Position effects (under "Motion" on the Effect Controls panel) to reduce their size and place them where you want.
    If the content of an inset will involve edited content (where you're cutting among various clips or just trimming out unwanted content from a single clip), then you'll probably find it easier to do all those edits in one sequence, then nest that sequence in the master sequence, where you apply the Scale and Positioning effects. That will save the step of applying the scale and position effects to each edited track item.

  • Multiple HighlightPainters for the same JEditorPane

    Hey Everyone,
    I'm having a problem having highligts of multiple colors for the same text component.
    Basically I have a set of results in a separate panel for a search on the text in a JEditorPane. I want the text corresponding to all the search results to be highlighted one color as soon as the search is done, and when one specific search result is clicked on, have the highlight for that result's text change to a different color.
    My current implementation is trying to do this by setting highlights for all the search results, and then when a result is clicked on, setting another highlight with another highlight painter of a different color. Unfortunately, this causes only the second higlight color to be displayed, even though when I look at the editorpane's highlights i can see all of them are being stored.
    Is there something I'm misunderstanding about Highlights?
    Thanks for any help,

  • Call and Execute Multiple Windows of the same VI

    Hi,
    I would like to call and execute multiple windows of the same VI.
    Please take a look for my attached vi, and start from the 2x2.vi, i think you have to re-enter the file path to run (sorry for inconvenience).
    If I click the start button in different sub panels, the sub vi(Temperature Analysis.vi..& etc) should be called out in multiple windows, hold it, and run simultaneously.
    But now the problem is, the sub vi is called out 1 by 1 until it is finished prior the second sub vi is called.
    May I know how to solve that?
    Thanks.

  • Sharing one iTunes library across multiple accounts on the same Mac

    Hello, I've poked around at some of the posts dealing with sharing one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac but it seems like this can only be done if the libary is moved to a shared folder. I realize this can be done but I was trying to share it the way it is described in a post on Apple support (See link below.). That post seemed to imply that you don't have to move the library from its original location (owned by account A, e.g.), rather just make a couple preference changes in the accounts, use fast user switching and voila. That doesn't seem to work. So my question is this: Is the only way to share one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac to move it to a shared folder? I'm running 10.4.8 on an Intel iMac. Thanks in advance!
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93195

    After reading this and several other related threads, I am becoming thoroughly confused about all of this. I have a situation similar to the one that pokerpal described in the post dated January 7 at 8:06 pm, except that the music files on my system are located on an external hard drive. Everything else is pretty much the same though - I am the admin user (and the main iTunes user and maintainer) and my girlfriend is a standard user who has no music in her own iTunes library. She can see and listen to and make playlists from and sync her iPod with the music in this library from her account, and I can do the same thing, independent of her, from my account. And if I make a change to information within a song, she doesn't see it, and vice versa, and I understand that. What I don't understand is why when I add a song or an album to the music files by importing a CD or downloading something from the iTunes Music Store, she has no way of knowing that unless I tell her, and then she can add it to her library by using the "Add to Library" function. Is there no way of automatically updating her library files to add the new song(s)? We have almost 15,000 songs and videos in that library, and I don't even want to think about what might have to happen if the answer to my question is "no." Interestingly enough, if I put an update to a Word document in the same exact location (on the hard drive), we can update that and pass it back and forth all day - why is that such a difficult task for iTunes to accomplish?
    Sorry I went on so long, but this has been building up for some time, and none of the solutions I've read about here have really been of any help, so I'm a bit frustrated and, as I said at the beginning, confused.

  • How can I have use the same div ID multiple times on the same page?

    Okay so a problem I encounter a lot is that often times I want to use the same div ID several times on the same page. An example of this is when I'm creating table like designs.
    Let's say for instance I create a div ID called 'product-container'. I want to use 'product-container' multiple times on the same page but if I do this it is improper XHTML and will throw errors in any XHTML validator (you are only allowed to use a div ID once on any XHTML page in order for it to be standards compliant).
    Now the first option is that I could define 'product-container' in my CSS style sheet multiple times by doing something like this...
    #product-container {
         width: 300px;
    #product-container-2 {
         width: 300px;
    #product-container-3 {
         width: 300px;
    #product-container-4 {
         width: 300px;
    What you will see there however is that it seems pointless to define the same ID numerous times over (just adding a number on the end) when each ID is the exact same thing and has the exact same attributes.
    Now what I have noticed is that there are some sites out there who manage to have the same ID appear several times in the code but add a number to it just like above. The difference is that they only have one definition for 'product-cointainer' in their CSS document but in their actual XHTML code they have IDs for 'product-container' but with numbers on the end like 2,3,4,5, etc. It's almost as if JavaScript or some other code is automatically appending a number on the end of the ID so the validator won't consider the markup to be invalid, but yet it knows that it's using the same 'product-container' style that is contained in the CSS style sheet.
    I hope I explained this correctly. I'm just hoping to find a way that I can put the same div ID on a page multiple times without having to define it over and over again in my CSS.
    Any help is much appreciated!

    Because it seems like by using a class you can't make this position as 
    well as you can by using an ID. Am I wrong?
    An ID name can be used only one time per page.  A class name can be used multiple times per page.
    .product {
    width: 300px;
    text-align:left;
    color: #FF0000

  • How to play one clip multiple times at the same time?

    I am writing a little game where a certain sound has to be played quite frequently. I load it as a Clip and play it with
    myClip.setFramePosition(0);
    myClip.loop(0);If the sound has to be played again but is still being played by another event, the setFramePosition() method resets the sound and the first playing instance is cut off.
    A workaround would be that each object that needs to play this sound would get its own copy, but that is not feasible due to heavy memory consumption.
    So here it goes: How can I play a single sound multiple times at the same time? Is that possible?

    So here it goes: How can I play a single sound multiple times at the same time? Is that possible?Ummmm, if you're using a clip, you'll have to maintain one copy per object that needs to play the sound concurrently. You could keep one master copy, and then create copies of the clip as necessary to play them, and then just dump the copies to decrease memory consumption.
    A second idea would be to write your own Clip class. Esentially, all you would need to do is dump some sound data onto a TargetDataline to play it. It'll handle the buffering and playing at the correct speed itself. If that's all you did, you should be able to dump multiple times from the same instance and play it multiple times.
    Obviously, that's just a theory. In practice, it may not work that way...

  • There are multiple users with the same display name

    Hi,
    We have a user and when she get an item assigned to her she sees the following alert:
    "There are multiple users with the same display name USERNAME and at least one of them does not have read permissions to some of the files"
    Now I looked in the database and when I run the following query with the username:

    Hi DSW,  
    Thanks for your post.
    In your query result, please check if these two users have the same Account Name. if they are two different Account Name in result, it indicate there’s two users have the same display name in your AD, please check that two users’ information in

You can only see the menu of one responsibility at a time, so how to do you expect the application to let you see multiple responsibilities/menus in one session?
    You could open another session and this way you can access more than one responsibility at the same time.

  • How can I combine multiple variations of the same library?

    While I have become accustomed to the new Library format/function there are still things that boggle my mind.  Case in point is that I now somehow have multiple versions of the same event showing up although I didn't create them.  And there is also a combination of 2 separate events that I just don't understand.  My current main concern/question is how to combine the duplicitous events?:
    At the top you'll see "Perlick" as the Library and "Beer Cooler" as the Event.  Then down below there is the "Perlick 20140502_1515_CDT".  When I opened the media drive that contains the Perlick event I found a total of 3 "extra" libraries with various long titles as the one just listed.  So, my question is can I somehow combine all of this into one, all-inclusive Library and if so, how?
    Thanks in advance...

  • How can multiple files for the same genre be consolidated

    I organize my iTunes files in genre folders for easy access. ITunes creates multiple folders for some genres and allows a single (preferred) genre file for other much larger files. How can I consolidate multiple files with the same genre?

    Thanks. I've done what you selected. The problem is that despite all files being identified with the same genre, iTunes groups some genres in two separate folders. Thus, I have two "Country" folders, for example. More perplexing is that iTunes groups my largest genre folder, "Jazz", in a single folder.
