Hi Soundarya,
what do you mean? You can make a vi and use it as a dialog, but why should the vi not run?

Regarding Dialog Box

hi, This is Akhila.
I am a novice in Laview. I have a small doubt regarding Dialog Boxes
Can I add a dialog box in the project same like adding a VI
Thanks in Advance

Akhila

You can create a VI that works like a dialog box. See the shipping examples for some examples on dialog boxes. You can also convert an Express VI dialog to a regular VI and save it as your own. See the Help on converting Express VIs to regular VIs.

Ashwini,
I don't understand what your exact problem is, but i can give you some feedback on the VI:
1) It is good to include timing into loops. But your comment implies, that you do not use timing in loops which are not connected to UI-controls. This is bad. You should always include timing into loops except if you want something (which has to be finit in execution!) to execute as fast as possible.
2) Your timing is 1s. This is far too long for proper interaction. Tests showed, that delays about some 100ms lead to misusage of the application. So please lower the time to something around 100-250 ms.
3) The VI checks "MR" against 4 and then decides if it should continue in the loop or to show the dialog. This is not good since the comparison is only done once in the beginning.
4) Never use the "run continuous" button!
hope this helps,
Norbert

FYI regarding Transform Effect dialog box

Just noticed that Illustrator (CS4) has 2 variations of the Transform Effect dialog box. The difference appears to be the number of copies one is allowed to generate.
1. Object > Transform > Transform Each > Transform Effect (Copy)
2. Effect > Distort & Transform > Transform > Transform Effect (Copies)
Eddie

Not clear what's being said here. On the Mac, the Object>Transform Each is not an effect at all. There's nothing live about it. Furthermore, it has the power to transform multiple, selected objects around their own axes. The transform effect has no such capability.
What am I missing? These seem to be commands to be used for different purposes. Furthermore, they both existed in CS3 and CS2 (and maybe CS), no?

Open dialog box....

Hi Everyone,
I have designed a form in which user has to input the path where he wants to save his report.
Like c:\test.PDF
what i want to do is that when user click a button againts this field a dialog box should appear in which he can select the location, like in Notepad File > Open or File Save.
and after selecting the path and closing the box the path should be display in the text field which i have provid to my user. Is it possible to attach the default file extension automatically in the text box?
like if user have written c:\test it should be automatically converted into c:\test.PDF? Any Idea?
How is this posible in Developer 6i. I will be very thankful if someone can help me solving this problem.
Regards,
Imran

use GET_FILE_NAME - it's documented in the help - client server only

Hi,
What the field reference you have given, there is check table which it is validating for the field, check it there might be a check table.

No display of error message log in dialog box

Dear MM Experts,
During enter incoming invoice (MIRO), when we click simulate after entering all necessary data, all error & warning messages are displayed in a dialog box if there is red traffic light. In our case despite red traffic light error messages are not displayed as shown in below screen shot. Only warning messages are displayed & document canu2019t be posted. Please let me know if anyone has encountered such behavior & knows the solution. We just want to see the error messages in dialog boxes so that necessary data can be entered and document can be posted.
Additional information: 1. No GR needs to be done, 2. GR based IV is unchecked in PO, 3. No validation is active for the company code,
Thanks & regards,
Avinash

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
Our problem is not to post a particular invoice doument, the main problem is that error log is not displayed in MIRO. For example if balance is not zero then this error should be displayed in error log dialog box, which is not happening due to which we are not able to post any invoice document as error is not known to the user. Please let me know if any suggestions.
Additional information: We have deactivated all validations & BADis. We also tried to compare with other systems where error log is displayed properly however our ABAP consultant could not find any difference. Any Input on how to compare is also welcome.
Thanks & best regards,
Avinash

SAP Logon Issue_Copyright Dialog Box at every SAP logon on QAS

Dear Friends,
From last few days, every QAS user logs into SAP, a Copyright Dialog appears with User last logon time, every time each user has to Click Continue on the dialog box. This is the only case with the QAS system and for each QAS client - 000, 200 and 220.
A kind request to help me disable the dialog box at the SAP Logon, what & where do have to configure in SAP QAS for it removal.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Chandrakant

Hi,
SAP is obliged by law to display the screen. The logic of when the copyright screen is displayed, is that when a user logs on for the first time, the screen is displayed, subsequent logons are without the copyright screen. Also, logging on in different languages will cause the logon screen to be displayed.
One reason is that there are no language specific copyright texts stored in the relevant tables - hence we
cannot store that the user in question has seen the actual copyright text and have to display again and again this popup.
The reason for these missing texts may be you did not import the corresponding language as I can see in SMLT
The language supplementation does not take into account the long texts and we cannot do any fallbacks for these texts due to legal reasons.
Regards,
Naveen.

BPS_WB: Please Wait Dialog Box not Displaying correctly???

When we switched our Planning Interfaces to using the New Planning Interface Design the Please Wiat Dialog Box does not display correctly.
When a Request is fired and the client is waiting for the Response all that shows is a white block in the middle of the screen with no dialog screen or other information.
It maybe associated with the following:
function bpsOpenURLSelf(doIt, url)
      if (doIt) {
        try {
            document.body.style.cursor = "wait"; // works only in IE
        } catch (ex) {} // ignore
        open(url,'_self');
      // note: function with doIt==false is used to check
      //       existence of the opener window
Or it may be associated with a CSS issue?
I am currently using IE 6.0.2900.2180.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Thanks, ATC

Why is the 'Choose icon...' button in the Options tab of the field property dialog box not enabled?

I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional XI running on Windows 8.
This “feature” has been bugging me for some time now. I remember it happening when I used Acrobat 9 Professional (Windows XP) and it is still happening in Acrobat XI Professional. I think I figured out a situation when I can reproduce this “feature” conistently and I hope someone fixes this.
Try the following and see what happens:
1. Acrobat Professional is not open.
2. Launch Word and start editing a document (or some other authoring tool that can generete PDF document).
3. After editing the document, generate a PDF version of the document.
4. Launch Acrobat Professional and edit the PDF document generated in 3.
5. Add a button.
6. View the button's properties.
7. Change the Fill Color property in the Appearance tab to none.
8. Change the Layout in the Options tab to Icon only.
Now here is what bugs be. Shouldn’t the 'Choose Icon ...' button be enabled? It is not enabled after step 8. It is possible that 'Choose Icon ...' button is enabled for some of you. I this case, it would be nice if at least one of you who experience the same bug say so in this thread so that Adobe doesn't think I am sending them on a wild goose chase.
I can enable it by selecting a different tab and then returning to the Options tab. A similar thing happens when reverting back from 'Icon only' to 'Label only' but I am not sure how to reconstruct a scenario for this one.
Here is the dialog box for one instance when I noticed the bug.
Regards,
John

You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.

My "Open" and "Save" dialog boxes in Logic Pro...

Hi,
Wondering if you've have had this issue. My Open / Save as well as any Import dialog boxes in Logic Pro have oddly spaced columns. I resize them accordingly (I prefer Column view BTW), get them looking right by holding the "Option" key while resizing to have all columns the same width...you know, the same procedure you'd use in the finder.
Anyway, each time a dialog box appears my "Sidebar" column along the left-hand side is like 5 inches wide, and each column to the right of that is very narrow despite my setting it up the way I'd like it to look during the previous Open/Save/Import.
Is there a preference for this that I'm missing?
Thanks in advance for any help.
-dave
P.S. I'm running Logic Pro 9.1.5 in 64bit mode (32bit mode also exhibits the same behavior). I'm running OSX Lion, 10.7.2

I posted a similar post regarding this observation. It appears that only you and I are the only ones getting this behavior from Logic and Lion. In all honesty, I don't think anybody cares or no one installed Lion for use with Logic yet. In either case, it has been widely ignored.
I too tried resizing, but get the same result every time. Its not just open and save windows, its the same with all windows. This gets especially annoying when ad ding samples to EXS24. Some people have different work arounds for adding samples to most things, such as the browser side window. Regardless of any workaround, nothing solves the remaining window space problem. This window bug is something that should not exist within Logic. It makes Logic look like freeware.
For many, Logic Pro X might be the ultimatum. It might be time to jump ship.

Open Dialog Box: full file name is not displayed in edit window under Windows 7

Only the last 16 characters of a file name are displayed in the edit window of a Common dialog box under Windows 7. What is the fix to this problem? I am coding in C/C++ and my compiler is Visual Studio 2005.

Hi warengharding624,
Based on your description, your issue is related about C/C++, since this forum is discussing about Windows Forms Controls, and I will move this thread to C++ forum.
In addition,Could you share us what the type of your project is?
Thanks for your understanding.
