Programmatically changing the x scale range of xy graph

Hi,
from a subvi I need to access the x scale range of an xy-graph on the panel of the main vi. I tried the code shown in the pdf attached to my posting. How can I restrict the general property node for an unspecified control to a more specific property node that offers the property "x scale range"?
Thanks,
Peter

You can use "To More specific Class" from the application control palette.
Of course make sure to handle errors gracefully. This is just a draft

Unable to change the scoring scale from 1-10 to 1-5

Hi,
We are using E-sourcing 5.1
We didn't see any options to change the scoring scale to 1-5.
Note:
For manual score question : system is asking us to score the scale 1-10
only but would like to have 1-5 instead of scoring scale 1-10.
Kindly let me know the process step to change the scoring scale
Thank you,
Mani

Mani,
Unfortunately I do not believe that there is any configuration option to change the scale range from "1-10" to "1-5". That range is fairly embedded within the application and is used by the scoring system to weight the response in determining an overall score.

How do I change the default "date range" when searching in the forums?

Hi all,
New to the SAP forums... How do I change the default date range when searching in the forums? I am getting a 90 day search by default. Then I have to change it and search again. Argh!
Thanks,

Hi Amy,
the default date range cannot be changed by users. It is defined system-wide.

How do I programmatically change the plot legend names on my xy graph?

I have a need to change the names/labels on my XY Graph's Legend at run time. This is because plot 0 is not always the same set of data. I have searched high and low for a couple days now to no avail. The closest thing I've seen is overlaying a string over the plot legend, but I would prefer to do change the property of this box. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Ben,
with waveforms this also works for me fine. So where is the pitfall? (if always all works fine, one don't really gets experience)
greets, Dave
P.S. @ J.B. I used the Code Capture Tool from the Starware Thread, this made me so fast. If I could do, I would give it five stars each time I use it.
Btw. would it be possible to programmatically give ratings with LV? Here it should be used. Thanks again to tst & the others

Can I Programmatically Change the Active Group on a Hypertrend in DSC?

I would like to know how to programmatically change the active group of a hypertrend in Labview DSC. I saw a link which said it can be done in Lookout. But in the DSC module, the active group is read only.
I know of a hard way to do it. I could save the hypertrend settings as xmlSettings to a temporary file. The active group is one of the settings. I could then change the active group in this text file to point to the new group and then reload the settings. But this is not a clean way of dong it.
Anyone know if there is a easy way?
Solved!

I found a way to do it but its not very clean. I dont know why there is not a function to change the current group.
Here is how I did it.

How to programmatically change the password of user accounts in PDF Generator

I am using 4 user accounts for multi-thread converting Word documents to PDF in PDF Generator ES3, and I have to update the password of those user accounts. Does PDF Generator ES3 save the password somewhere on the Windows 2008 server? Can I programmatically change the password of those accounts other than updating them manually from LiveCycle Admin console?
Thanks,
Will

Not in LiveCycle API.
Changing user account password is related to Operating System.

Can you programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator

Is it possible to programmatically change the width of columns in a table control\indicator ie to fit to width of the data or in my case the header information.

Create a property node (or reference) and use the 'Active Cell' property to select which column you want to change and then use the 'Cell size'--> 'Width' property to change the size.

Programmatically change the query used to generate Oracle Reports

I have two queries. Depending on some parameter value, I would like to use one of these queries to generate my report. Is it possible to programmatically change the SQL query used to generate the Oracle Report.
Thanks

There are two options:
- The easy way
In the report paper layout create two frames, one for each query , and at runtime
display only one based on your parameters. (using format triggers on the frames)
- the not so easy way (but more elegant)
create the query at runtime using xml customizations using the examples from
the following documentation:

How can I programmatically change the fill color Settings of the Cwslide ActiveX Controls

In design mode (Visual Studio 6.0),I want to programmatically change the fill color in properties of cwslide ActiveX Controls.what's the command?

First, if you want to start getting beyond the basics with DAQ, you are going to have to stop using the DAQ assistant and do it with lower level DAQmx VI's. There are hundreds of examples in the example finder. You can even right click on the DAQ assistant and select open front panel. That will create a subVI that you can open and see what is going on behind the scenes. Do it. I think you'll find the DAQ task is being recreated on each (though I'm not 100% of how the settings are established or maintained in each section of that subVI).
The second problem is you have a bit of a race condition on iteration 0. Those two DAQ property nodes are running at the same time. So when you read the AI.Max, it may be happening before or after the AI.Max is set in your case structure.
Third, make sure you wire up your error wires.

How to programmatically change the width of a graph?

How can I programmatically change the width of a Waveform Graph or Waveform Chart? When I create an implicit property node for a graph or chart, it is read-only. Changing the plot bounds worked in earlier versions of LabVIEW, but not anymore.

It works for me in LV2013 but I'm using the Plot Area : Size : Width property.

How can I programmatically change the voltage range settings in a DAQ Assistant

Hi,
First post here.
I need to be able to change the voltage range properties of a daqmx DAQ Assistant based on user input. My hardware, an SCXI-1102C does not allow changing this property on a running task, so I'd like to either set the analog input voltage range before the DAQ Assistant activates, or pause the DAQ Assistant immediately after it starts, set the values and then resume.
I don't know how to edit the task ahead of time because the DAQ assistant creates the task when it runs, and there is no task before that.
In the attached picture, I have a conditional section, set to run only if the while loop iteration is 0. I take the task from the Daq assistant, send it to a stop task vi, set the property, and then send the task on to the start task vi. I can watch it run with the debug light on, and everything seems to work correctly, but on the second (and all the other) iteration of the loop, I read out AI.Max and it seems like the DAQ Assistant has re set it back to 5V. Can anyone see what is going wrong here?
BTW, this is continuous acquisition and the code does not produce error messages when it runs.
I did come across a similar question that someone posted here back in 2006, but his question was specifically aimed at a Labview API (VB, I think), and not an actual G solution.
Attached are the actual vi in question and a png image of the block diagram.
Thanks!

Changing Slide Control Scale Range

I am creating a program that will allow the user to select a range of time over which data will be analyzed. Is there a way to set the slide control range to start at the beginning of the data set (t0) and go to the time at the end (tf)? I can change the values using a property node, but the values are for the start and stop and increments are doubles.
Thanks.
--Robert

Change the format for the digital display. The tip strip will be formatted the same as the digital display.
So far, you have only changed the scale format.

I want to change the y scale on a graph while the program is running.

I am trying to adjust the y scale of the chart while I am running the program. I would like to have knob that adjust the program to ranges between +-2.5, +-5, or +-10. I think the way to do it is by accessing the chart properties however I am unsure how to change their values.

I don't think I've seen the trace get thick. Attached is a simple VI. Let me know if you see this behavior with it.

Can I programmatically change the printer paper size from ActionScript?

Hi,
I'm a newbie Flash/ActionSript developer and I have been searching for answers for a while with no luck. I wonder if I can get some pointers from this forum.
I'm trying to programmatically print a movie clip to 8.5" x 11" plain paper regardless of the current paper size setting in the printer. e.g if the user's printer is currently set to use paper size A4, can I change the setting to Letter (8.5" x 11") from ActionScript at runtime? I use PrintJob class for printing the movieclip.
According to the ActionScript online API spec ( http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/flash/9.0/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context =LiveDocs_Parts&file=00002066.html), I can only READ the paper size setting after the call to PrintJob.start. I can't believe that we are not allowed to change the setting. Maybe I missed something here. Can somebody help me out?
Thanks in advance!
