Open Multiple Variable Editor in VI

Hi folks,
is there any way to open the Multiple Variable Editor programmatically in a VI?
ATM i'm migrating a measurement logging system from LabVIEW 7 to LabVIEW 2010 which means i'm mostly rewriting the code for use with shared variables. It would be useful if the measurement engineers could reconfigre - e.g. rescale or smthg - variables when the software is already running as it was somehow possible with the Tag Configuration Editor, and instead of writing these menus again i'd like to pop up LabVIEWs MVE or the builtin properties page of a shared variable.
Hints, useful links or any other help welcomed!
Matthias

Hello Matthias,
i have found some links concerning your request. Maybe the following one is the most suitable to your problem:

Copy a configuration into Multiple Variable Editor

Using the Multiple Variable Editor in LabVIEW could be improved by being able to copy column entries from excel or a text file into the editor.

LV 8.2 DSC Multiple Variable Editor - Import/Export bug?

Hi,
Has anyone used the export/import feature in the Multiple Variable Editor in LV DSC 8.2? I'm having problems importing a Comma Separated Variable (CSV) file and it fails to include the "Bind to Source" parameters.
You can test this by simply exporting a bound variable and then importing it into a new library. Not all the features are imported.
Is this a bug or have I simply not read the documentation or is it not meant to work like this!?

Rudi,
Apparently this has been identified by Doug Mumford (NI) in an email to our consultant (ThinkG):
"There is a bug in the importing/exporting of CSV files using the Multiple Variable Editor. This will be addressed in the next maintence release of LabVIEW. Attached is a VI that should fix this -- make a backup of the original and replace it with the attached VI. The path to this VI is <labview>\resource\dialog\variable."
See Doug, he'll have the VI.
The bug omitted a ":" e.g. "Network Buffsize" instead of "Network:Buffsize" so that when items were imported back in the items were loaded incorrectly.

Open Multiple JPEG's at Once in Raw Editor

Hello Everyone: Can one open multiple JPEG's at once in the Editior? When I select File>Open As>Raw Option (I think that is what it says) to open JPEG's or TIFF's in the Raw Editor I can only select one photo at a time. If I tried to open a group of Raw pictures then would all open into the Raw Editor withough may having to do anything else. Thank Robert.

Hi Robert
It’s only possible to edit one jpeg at a time in PSE. You need Lightroom.

How to open multiple jpgs in Adobe Camera Raw PSE 9 Mac

I am using Adobe Elements 9 on a Mac. I can open a single jpeg file in ACR with the file open command. There is no "Open As" in my version, probably because this is the Mac version. But, there is an additional dialog which allows me to open the jpeg file and select "Camera Raw" as the type. This opens the jpg in the raw editor.
But, when I select multiple files to open, the type dialog vanishes. Rather than opening the files in ACR, they are stacked in the main editor. I don't have this problem opening multiple dng files - just multiple jpg files. Multiple jpg files will not open in ACR.
I then went to the organizer, which replaced Bridge? In Bridge, I read there is a command to open multiple files in ACR or use the cmd-R. However, I am not seeing an open in ACR command in the organizer, just open in editor. Opening multiple jpg files in the organizer stacks them into the editor, not ACR. And, typing cmd-R brings up Red Eye reduction, not Raw Editing.
Is there a trick to this which I am missing?

Thanks Terry! I’ve been using this for a few years and settled on the somewhat more flexible approach… As you mentioned, Bridge offers an explicit command to open a JPEG or TIFF in Camera Raw, which I do, but then with a press of Shift I can open that JPEG as a smart object and revisit CR controls for further adjustment at any time later in the process.

Open with External Editor Adobe Camera Raw = HOW?

When I export a RAW file to the External Editor (I've chosen Photoshop CS3) I would like for it to open in Adobe Camera Raw, just like any RAW file that I open in Photoshop outside of Aperture.
However it bypasses Adobe Camera Raw and opens directly in Photoshop.
I have the "Prefer Adobe Camera Raw for JPEG files" and "for Supported RAW files" boxes checked in the Photoshop Prefs.
I see some chatter about Hot folders and Automator around here, but no definitive answer/workaround.
If Aperture doesn't support exporting to Adobe Camera Raw, it is a HUGE leg-up for Lightroom in the RAW workflow department.
Please tell me I'm missing a checkbox somewhere... Thanks.

You're not missing a checkbox, you're missing a fundamental issue of how Aperture (and LightRoom for that matter) work.
When you use the Open in External Editor command, Aperture will convert the RAW file, apply any adjustments you have made, and send the resulting PSD or TIFF file to the external editor.
The original file is NOT sent and there is no option to do so. Why not? Because Aperture Versions do not exist as discrete image files - the adjustments are shown on-the-fly each time you view it, saving on the space taken up by multiple TIFF/PSD/JPEG files for each Version. As ACR uses a totally different RAW conversion & adjustment engine from Aperture, Aperture wouldn't be able to display any changes made in ACR without including the entire conversion engine of ACR, which Adobe might not be too happy about...
In other words, if you want to use a different RAW convertor you will have to export the Master, convert it in the other app, and then import the resulting 'normal' image file back into Aperture. The same is true for LightRoom.

How to open multiple C source files in one window in Xcode

I could not find the way for opening multiple source code in one window in Xcode.
Is it possible?

Yes that was my question, thank you very much...
you mean like in tabs or somethign? I don't quite
understand your question. If everything is in one
project, you can switch your file viewer to editor
mode by clicking on Editor in the top left and then
navigate through your files with the left tree.

HOW TO OPEN MULTIPLE TABLES IN SQL DEVELOPER SIMULTANEOUSLY

Use the 'pin' on your table editor
http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2011/11/sql-developer-quick-tip-pin-query-result-sets-and-plans/
Then open your 2nd table. If you want to see both at the same time, right-click on the table editor tab and select 'New Editor Tab Group'
Not a silly question, but no need to shout :)

Add choice of multiple external editors

The 1.1 enhancements do make LR more usable, but please add more context menu slots (via Preferences) for multiple external editors.
I frequently use two very different tools for localized image editing on TIFFs because they are radically different tools for solving different problems. To choose the un-preferenced editor, I have to first go to Preferences dialog, change the application selection, close the dialog, then launch the editor, then switch back the next time I want to use the first external editor.
I doubt that I am the only Lightroom user with more than one non-Adobe editing tool (noise reducers, sharpening tools, re-sizing tools, etc.)
I have no intention of using Photoshop; the fixed slot for Photoshop is wasted on me and probably many other users.

From my comment in another topic:
[Only allowing a single external editor] is an issue even when using Adobe products. I use Photoshop Elements as my editor and don't have CS3, and LR forces me to use the single "External Editor" spot for the Elements editor.
I wish they'd recognize Elements as my primary external editor and let me call Neat Image (digital noise reducer) as my secondary editor directly from LR. As it stands, I have to open in Elements editor, then choose the Neat Image filter.
I know I could specify NI as my external editor but I still need the Elements editor for touch-ups.
Thanks to the Adobe Lightroom team for reading these feature requests and seriously considering them.

Suddenly can't open multiple image files in CS5

I recently transferred LR 5.3 and CS5 (12.04x64X) onto a new PC (OS Windows 7 64-bit). Both programs are working fine individually. And single images in LR open just fine for editing in CS5. But when I try to open multiple images (to merge as a panoramic) or open multiple images as separate layers, nothing happens. CS5 opens on top of LR, but the files themselves never open. No problems doing this a few days ago with my older computer (same programs, same operating system).
Any suggestions for fixing this would be much appreciated.

When you say nothing is showing up, do you mean it is as if you didn’t use File / Open, or is it more that there is something but it is gray or white or black without any image detail? If the latter, perhaps something like a video driver update or system-level change has made things incompatible with how PSE11 tries to display images.
Have you rebooted?
Have you reset your preferences? You can do this by holding down Ctrl-Shift-Alt at the same time while PSE11 is starting up (or at least while the editor is starting up) and you’ll get a message about deleting the preferences file or not before you see the splash screen. Various other key combinations will ask for an additional plug-ins folder or a different scratch disk location. If you are going to delete your preferences file you might want to review the settings, first, in case there is something important you need to reconfigure once the preferences have been reset.

How open multiple responsibilities in the same user login session in R12 ?

Dear All,
Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?
Thanks..
Edited by: G-oracle on Sep 18, 2011 11:22 AM

Can anyone help me to know how to open multiple responsibility in the same user login session in R12 ?What do you mean by open multiple responsibilities in the same session? 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.
Thanks,
Hussein

Is there a way to open multiple windows in firefox 5.0? I can't do it from windows quicklaunch and the right click"open in new window" does nothing.

Yeah, not much more to say. Since I upgraded to firefox 5.0, I can no longer open multiple windows. Multiple tabs work, but I don't like tabs. Please help.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordian at a same time

Hi,
Is there a way to open multiple childs of Accordain at a same time.
My requiremnets is something like this:--
Thanks for any help on this in Advance.

You can have multiple nodes open on a tree, so I guess you could open them all up on a button click.
Another option that might be possible is to use individual Accordians for each section and then use the click function to close the others.

Is there a way to open multiple files at once with the new download manager?

It was possible to do this with the old one by right-clicking and selecting "open", but I haven't been able to find a way to make it work with the new one.

I looked at the download section of the Library dialog, which you can open using either:
* Show All Downloads
* Ctrl+j
I couldn't figure out any way to open multiple items in one step. I can select multiple items, but... no way to launch them. Seems you need to double-click or press Enter to open a single selected item, and repeat for each item you want to open.
