Polar plot scale labels and background colour

Dear Labview Forum,
I am trying to create a polar plot. However when I put the polar
plot indicator on my front panel and wire up some data and parameter
control boxes, the scale labels are missing. See polar plot
basic.VI. Are the scale labels there or are they the same colour
(black) as the background and hence not visible?
When you compare this to the polar plot demo, the background is white and the scale labels are present.
How can I control the polar plot background colour parameter?
How can I control the scale label colour and visibility?
Regards,
Jamie

I'm so sorry ... i am also unable to find the Propety Node... i think i mistook changing the Label/Caption bg colour as changing the whole bg colour... i'm so sorry...
i've tried searching but to no avail... my apologies...
all the best to your application...

How to see the foreground and background colour without those sliders?

I've always found the Color Panel really annoying. A lot of space is taken up by those sliders, and I hardly ever use them.
Is there some way to hide the sliders, or—better still—put the foreground & background colours on the control panel? Shouldn’t the colours be on the control panel by default, always there in the corner?
I wonder how most people view the foreground and background colour? Does Adobe seriously expect users to have the large Color Panel constantly displayed (along with its rarely-used sliders), or perhaps we’re all expected to have the Tools Panel constantly open even though it only contains basic tools that most people know the shortcuts for?
Or is there some other way to see the foreground and background colours?
Or do most users not need to know what the foreground and background colours are?

Too big, i guess you don't remember the color palettes from ps 1 and ps 2.
You might want to look at configurator to make a smaller panel that just shows the
foreground/background color chips.

I'm using Photoshop Elements 12 on Windows 8.1. When I go into the Expert Edit Mode the toolbar available appears in one single column and misses off several tools including foreground and background colour. How can I restore the original toolbar?

How cna I change the text and background colours in iTunes?

Can anyone tell me how I can change the text and background colours in iTunes? I am a visually impared user and my main requirement on a PC is to change the colour schemem to white text on a black background. Most software adopts the settings of your colour scheme but iTunes goes it's own and has everything on white backgrounds. I cannot read from white backgrounds (dazzle - that sort of thing). I have never used iTunes for this reason. I have always been a devotee of by far the best media player out there Musicmatch Jukebox, who allow you to edit skins in every detail. However, recently Musicmatch was taken over and users were forced to migrate to the ridiculously poor Yahoo Music Jukebox. A massive downgrade in so many ways.
I want to use iTunes but will not be able to if I cannot sort this issue out. I downloaded 7.5 before discovering that if you want to use Multi Plugin for skins you need to go back to iTunes 7.02. I've done that, but the skins available are completely pointless to my eyes. They don't change the colours of the main components, just the graphical bit at the top.
What I need to do is change the background of the main browser windows so that they are black and the text is white (you know the track lists and tree views, etc). This must be a very simple case of just changing the codes somewhere, but I can't find where. I read somewhere that you need to hack into something call ResourceDB inside a file called iTunes.jar. There is no such file on my PC. Could that be a Mac thing?
Please help someone if you can. I would like to become an iTunes user. There seems to be more music available than on Napster which I currently use.
Thanks in advance

In my opinion, it seems that Apple has decided to sacrifice usability so that iTunes would look more like a Mac application. You are probably already aware that using Windows' built-in high-contrast settings do not work in iTunes.
I did some hacking at the resource file a while back, but I was unable to figure out how to change the color of the background. IIRC there was a resource whose description indicated it would change the background color, but when I changed the resource, nothing happened.
I was, however, able to figure out how to make the "large" font much larger (any size you want, I suppose). Will that help? See
http://home.comcast.net/~teridon73/ituneshacks/index.html
You should provide feedback to Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
I don't think it is too harsh to call it "shameful" that Apple has chosen this design path. Where I work, we are required to make ALL applications (or any computer interface, such as a website) section 508 compliant. Of course, I'm being a bit of a hypocrite, because I've made no effort to make my website compliant. If you have trouble reading it, please let me know.

Polar plot scale numbers "truncated"

I have a strange problem when using the polar plot VI.
Labview 2012 latest SP, running on a cRIO9074. I'm running a servo motor for one revolution while measuring the runout on an armature using a linear position sensor.
The data looks good, but for some reason, the scale labels truncate after two decimals, no matter what I set the precision to. I'm sending it a cluster of two double precision arrays.
When I run the Labview example, it works fine I can change the number of decimals viewed to 10 if I need to. I've tried keeping everything the same as the example.
Any ideas?
See picture.
The sample VI works fine, (I can set the precision to 6 and I will see 6 decimal positions. )

Thanks for the response, Kurt. With the help of a colleague, we were able to determine that this behavior is only when the VI is running on the cRIO.
(I think it was called "Polar Plot Demo.vi", but yes the VI is "Polar Plot with Points Option.vi"
We verified this by running the example vi first from windows (works fine), then ran it on the cRIO. On the cRIO it truncates decimals depending upon what font size you use. If you use a REAL TINY font, it will include more decimals. When running in Windows, the graph appears to move left to accomodate for more decimal place. When running on the cRIO, it appears to cut the picture off on the right side.
Following is our setup, but as stated above, we sent the demo program to the cRIO (didn't use any I/O) and the problem occured.
We're using Labview 2012, latest updates applied.
Modules are:
NI-9411 to read an Ono Sokki position sensor (quadature output from two channels, resolution is .0001 mm.
Ethercat set up using the "getting started" manual for the NI supplied AKD servo drive and motor.
All hardware works fine and data collected looks good. Test is to turn motor and collect servo position and linear encoder position.
Data has 4 decimal places coming in.

Two annoying bugs... clone layer and background colour

is it just my machine or is there a fix for-
-when i clone a layer the new group jumps position 20, -20. i can reset it to zero, but i am not sure why it moves it.
- whatever colour i change the background to in the preferences has no effect. it remains black. Again, this is not the end of the world, but i just wanted to see if there is anything i could do about it.
cheers!

Clone layers are always offset. Not sure about the background color issue, might try trashing your prefs:
1) Quit Motion.
2) Navigate to User/Library/Preferences.
3) Locate com.apple.motion.plist and delete it.

Constrasting text and background colour

The new vision system is an improvement BUT for vision inpaired viewers white text on a pall gray background is almost unreadable.
HELP
How do I change this?

I'm afraid you can't.
I am vision impaired and thought at first they had lost their collective marbles.
They have in so far as that first page is awful and does need altered however the new highlighting system as you scroll through is much more readable that before.
We have gained some advantage in the change but in that it is more readable in parts and worse in others.
Hopefully it will be corrected in the future as their has been a lot of feedback on this issue.
It might be worthwhile taing your complaint to the more official level and letting the MODS know as they can pass it on to the Vision Team.

FF v. 4.0.1: Is it possible to change the text and background colours of the menubar please ?

The menubar (above the tabs) appears as dark grey text on a light grey background - it is very difficult to read !

Graphic scale labels and different fonts

hello all
I have a vi with 4 waveform charts on it. When I develop on one machine, a windows XP pro machine, I get the y axis labelling the way I want it, but when I move to another machine i use for development (these are home and office machines) this one a Windows 2000 Pro machine, the y axis scaling on the charts is ruined, specifically, the hash marks appear in with the actually label numbers. The numbers on the Y-Axis are overwriting the hash marks rather than appearing beside them as they should. And there does not appear to be anyway to fix this y axis labelling display problem short of deleting the waveform chart and making a new one, which is very cumbersome and time consuming given there are four of them as well as a n
umber of Property nodes for each, all of which have to be re-wired etc when I replace the charts.
Is there a way around this problem?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Are you using "special fonts"? Outside the basic types installed by MS?
Maybe the font you are using was not installed in the other machine, so when it looks up the "missing" font, it replaces it with the closest thing... In your case it could be "webdings" or something.
Start by checking if the same fonts are installed in both PCs. If not you have an alternative. Find and install the missing font in your other machine, or change the font in your vi to one available on your other machine.

How to change the text color of a label by using RGB values without changing the background colour?

xCode interface builder:
When I try to change the color property of a label's text by using the RGB values, the background color also changes to the same value automatically.
in other words:
While setting the RGB values for text colour of labels, the background colour also changes unless we use the sliders.
How to make sure that only the color of text changes and not the background?

You can simply do this.
[labelname setTextColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:38/255.0f green:171/255.0f blue:226/255.0f alpha:1.0f]];

CAPTCHA background and text colours

Hi
A client of mine has complained a few times that the CAPTCHA background colour and text colour are too similar and the alphanumerals cannot be read.
How can i manipilate text and background colour?
Here is my code:
<cfimage action="captcha" height="50" width="180" text="#strCaptcha#" difficulty="low" fonts="verdana,arial,times new roman,courier" fontsize="20">
thank you
Delon

Been having the same issues with a couple of my clients...They are getting fairly irritated just trying to read the CAPTCHA, so I did some digging and came across this company located in Cali..Confident Technologies and they look like they are just getting started but seem to have a pretty good solution..I tried it and was impressed.

Polar plot from excel

I have some data in the form of an excel table with two columns
(frequency and amplitude). I wish to plot this as a polar plot in
labview and then carry out convolution/correlation with another set of
data. How do I achieve this seemingly herculean task?

Look at this example file. Labview has a built-in polar chart.
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0\examples\picture\demos.llb\Polar Plot Demo.vi

White border in cell when adding background colour.

In Numbers for Mac. When I add a background color there is a white border inside the cell. How do I have the entire cell filled with the colour? I go through, the 'format'menu, 'text','layout', 'border' and 'background colour'.

Use the Cell tab to apply a fill color to the cell instead of applying a background color to the text.

Polar plot

Hello, here is my problem. I want to display two groups of data in one polar plot. In one hand i want one group of data to refresh the plot (erease the picture vi), but in the other hand i want the other data to be shown indefinitly. How can i do, so that the first group of points dont erease the second group of points?
I appreciate a simple answer, considering i am new to labview

Hi Liderant,
Try to look at the example Polar Plot Demo. vi and change it as you need. I thik it will be better.

How to change the scale of magnitude in polar plot?

I use a polarplot-subVI in my application. The usual labels of magnitude scale is devided in steps of 90° (e.g.:0°,90°,180°,360°). How can i increase the number of magnitude labels. When i go into the "pg angle labels.vi" i only found a way to change the content of the labels and not the number. Can someone help me?

Greetings!
If you wire in a "polar Attributes" cluster control, you can fiddle with the scales. Alternatively, you can "drill" down through the main vi, and see that the grid is controlled by a "picture plot" subvi. If you are not faint of heart, you can manupulate the grid properties at a lower level, but for the time being, I think the Polar Attributes control should do the trick.
