PDA tab control refresh?

I am using a tab control on a PDA app (Pocket PC 2003, LV 7.1). If I resize or replot to a graph on an inactive tab, the graph is pulled to the front regardless of what tab is selected. The graph will cover text and some of the controls/indicators in the currently active tab.
I tried using the show/hide control VIs, but it happens even with the graph indicator set to hidden.
Anyone else experiencing this? Workarounds?
Thanks,
Ryan

I built a similar VI and came to the same conclusion. The attached VI demonstrates the issue I reported in my initial post. It is related to the Configue PDA XY Scales VI.
Thanks for your help.

Tab Control Property Node gives a build error when used in a VI for LabVIEW PDA

Hello,
    Iam new to LabVIEW development & need help regarding this:
    We are trying to port a LabVIEW application from desktop to a Windows Mobile PDA. Please note that the LabVIEW application works fine on the desktop. In one of the VIs, a Tab control property node is used which gives a build error with LabVIEW PDA project. A sample VI which shows the problem & the error list snapshot is attached with this post. Can anyone please suggest an alternate approach to achieve the same functionality with LabVIEW PDA? Waiting for an early response from anyone...
Thanks & Regards,

    I feel that the Tab control property node that has been used in the VI (which is attached earlier) may not be supported on the PDA target. Can u (or any LabVIEW expert) suggest an alternate approach to achieve the same goal with LabVIEW PDA (changing colour of Tab control pages programatically)??
    I had missed out some details earlier: We are using LabVIEW 8.5 PDA module on a Windows Mobile PDA.
Thanks & Regards,

RH7: Project Manager Tab keeps refreshing continuously

I have upgraded my project from RH5 to RH7. There were in all 65 projects (.xpj) files that I upgraded. However, i have this issue with some of the files. When I open the xpj file, the Project Manager tab keeps refreshing. I cant scroll and select the files that are towards the end because the moment I click the scroll bar, the the tab refreshes and I cant click on the file.
Most of the files that I upgraded work fine.
Please suggest a solution. Thanks.

Have you tried renaming the CPD and reopening RH to make it create a new one?

How can I set the tab order of text box controls on each page of a tab control?

I need to be able to select the tabbing order of individual controls on a single page of a tabbed control. How??

In LV 6.1 an up you should be ablel to right click on the edge of the tab control when the tab-page in question is selected.
The bttom selcetion in the pop-up is "Reoder controls in page..."
selecting this option will switch editing modes to allow you to specify the ored, just like in a cluster.
I seem to remeber in older versions you had to drag the tabable controls off the tab control, specify the tabbing oder and then drag them back on. The oldest version I have on this machine is 6.1 so that all I can speak for at the moment.
I hope this helps,
Ben

Can you print all the tab control's contents and include the tabs?

We are trying to generate a report that includes the contents of a tab control (graphs, text). Using the Append Control Image to Report.vi, we are only able to print out the active tab and the tab is cut off of the image. How can we generate reports that include all the tab pages and their contents and include the labeling tabs?
Thanks in advance.
Jim

I do have a workaround for makinging the prints but it looks like some sort of cropped screensave that cuts off the tabs. In my sample I was printing out 3 of the tab controls and you can see there are three by the cut off tabs. Is there a setting to allow for more of the graph and its surroundings to be "captured"?

Make the tab control a control and not an indicator. If you want to write
to it you need to create a local variable.

Data Origin Types not filled in the tab "Control Data" of BP interface

Hello experts,
I have loaded the clients from ECC6.0 to CRM 4.0.
Before I have loaded the clients I have maintained the data origin type for the BP in spro -> cross application components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business partner -> Basic settings -> Data Origin -> Maintain Data Origin Type.
After I have done the load initial of clients, the field "Data Origin" is empty in the tab "Control Data" in BP interface. If I do F4 in the field appear the configuration that I did in spro appear.
For this field will appear filled I'll need to do more configurations in spro?
Best regards,
Mary

Hi Mary,
The middleware does not fill this field in BP master data. You can maintain data origin type in SPRO, however the mBdoc does not use this customizing in order to fill this field.
Please try to use the BADI CRM_DATAEXCHG_BADI in order to fill this field during master data download.
It hope it helps.
Regards,
Gabriel Santana

Horizontal tabs when they are on the left side of tab control

I have a tab control for a touch screen where I was going to use buttons along the left side to change tabs, and hide the tabs. However, I realized I can put the tabs on the left side of the tab control and remove my buttons all together. Only issue is, I would like them (along with their font) to be horizontal, not vertical as they are shown in my screenshot. Is there a way to change this?

It's a really poor design aspect of tab controls that the text is sideways when the tabs are on the left or right side.
I've looked into it and found no way to re-orient the text.
However you can put images on the tabs instead of text, and the images can be of text (correctly oriented of course).
The attached code can be used to generate such a tab control.

How to hide a tab in a Tab Control by Property Node?

Hi,
I have a Tab Control in my Front Panel. So, using a array of LEDs, I would like to hide some tabs, probably using Property Node functions, but I can't find what option do it. Is it possible?

Thanks Macro! I came to the forum to find a solution for this exact problem, it's nice to find it already laid out for me so clearly.

Using a jQuery list box placed onto a tab control doesn't seem to work for posting?

Hello,
I developed a U.I. in Dreamweaver for a product and have several list boxes that use the onChange modifier to collect what the user selects from the list. I use the onChange=this.form.submit() function to grab the user's selection from the list box..
When this dropdown list box code is placed onto a form, it posts properly and I can retrieve the user's list selection. If however I place the list box code onto a Tab page from a jQuery Tab Control, developed in Dreamweaver, the posting doesn't seem to work.
I must be missing something because identical code is working fine when the list box code is placed on a form yet when the code is repeated from within a Tab, it isn't working.
The code is simple, and shown below). The list values are coming from a MySQL table.
$MyQuantity_query="SELECT * FROM Quantity_Table";
$MyQuantity_Result=mysqli_query($cxn,$MyQuantity_query) or Die ("Cannot connect");
echo"<select name='ThisQuantity[$RowCounter]' value='ThisQuantity[$Rowcounter]' onChange='this.form.submit()'><option value='-1' selected>Qty</option>";
While($MyQuantity_Row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($MyQuantity_Result))
extract($MyQuantity_Row);
echo"<option value='$Qty_Number'>$Qty_Number</option>";
echo"</select>";
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks you.
I tried placing the selection list inside of
tags but posting still doesn’t seem to be working?
