Replace a subvi used in several other vi

I have modified and renamed a subvi for convenience
this subvi is used in many other subvi's and vi's
I want to replace the previous by the new one in one time(like in visual c or word with text)
Is It possible ???
Can we make a macro to do it
Thanks

If the callers of the VI are loaded into memory when you save it to a
new name, LV will automatically update them to point to the new
name/location. If LV isn't open, you are using the explorer, or the
calling VIs aren't loaded, then the way to do this is to use replace on
each call, which can be alot of edits.
So again, the technique is to load the caller, one at a time or all at
once. Open the subVI and Save As... Change the name and when you close
the callers you will notice they want to be saved also.

  • Replace a subvi used in many vis

    We have a few hundred llbs with massive number of VIs that we're trying to convert to directories. A lot of the software was developed is from Windows 3.1 ages, most of it reusable and used everywhere. The problem is we frequently used "/" character in the vi names at the time and now those VIs have to be renamed during conversion to directories. However, hundreds of them are used as subVIs in hundreds of different callers. The VI library manager does not help in this case. Callers, even when in memory, do not know of the renamed subVI. The only 2 ways out of this I can see are:
    1. Load all the software into the memory (around 2 GB, need to upgrade a PC) and do Save As on every VI with illegal name (hundreds), then save everything and co
    nvert llbs to directories.
    2. Convert everything, then open every VI and replace manually every renamed subVI.
    Second option is worse, but the first one is very painful too.
    Find / Replace tool for the subVIs with the same interface and a different name would ease the pain...
    Any other suggestions are welcome.

    Check out OpenG!
    I believe Jim Kring has developed a VI that will let you do the re-naming you desire.
    re: the memory required.
    Since it is a one time thing, virtual memory should cover you until the conversion is complete.

  • Is there a way to delete the Apple ID on one device (IPhone 5) and replace the ID on that device with an existing ID used on three other devices?

    Is there a way to delete the Apple ID used on one device (IPhone5) and replace it with another ID that is being used on three other devices?

    If you have turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My you will have to start by turning that off - requires entering the Apple ID password.  Then remove the Apple ID from all places it is used, i.e., Messages, FaceTime, and so on.  Go to the App Store and then Sign Out.  Now you can enter the desired Apple ID and password in all of those places.

  • I downloaded Yosemite last night but when I tried to update iPhoto, I got an error message stating that that app and several others couldn't be updated because they weren't paid for by the user id entered. I'm the only one who uses this computer.

    I downloaded Yosemite last night and tried to look at my photos in iPhoto and noticed that needed updating. When I tried to update as requested, I got an error message stating that the app (and several others including Pages and Numbers) couldn't be updated because they weren't purchased by the user ID I had entered. I'm the only user of the computer and now I can't find my photos anywhere! Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Some folks have solved this issue by dragging the apps to an external disk, then disconnecting it, and then are able to download. Apparently it can arise if you upgraded from an OS the than Mavericks.
    Failing that: Contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window. They're the only ones who can sort out account issues.

  • How do I find, at-a-glance, the sample size used in several music files?

    How do I find, at-a-glance, the sample size used in several music files?
    Of all the fields available in a FInder Search, "Sample Size" is not available. Finder does offer a "Bits per Sample" field, but it only recognized graphic files and not music files.
    Running 10.8.5 on an iMac i5.
    I did search through a couple of communities but came up empty.
    Thank you,
    Craig

    C-squared,
    There is no View Option to allow display of a column of sample size. 
    For WAV or Apple Lossless files, it is available on the Summary tab (one song at a time, as you know).  For MP3 and AAC it is not available at all.
    You can roughly infer it from the files that are larger than expected for their time.
    99% of the music we use is at the CD standard of 16-bit, so I can guess that displaying it has never been a priority.  However, if you want to make a suggestion to Apple, use this link:

  • Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.

    Be grateful for your help with Photoshop Elements which I have been using for several years.  Does Elements need to have access to ‘My Pictures’ on Windows as when I remove Photos from ‘My Pictures’, Elements later, when backing up, gives a message that it is unable to ‘reconnect’ to the same picture on elements.  On other occasions when removing a photo from Elements catalogue I also get a similar message when backing up saying ‘unable to reconnect’.  1. Is there a relationship between Elements and My Pictures and is Elements dependant on    the Windows ‘My Pictures’? 2. Why does some photos in Elements in some cases cause them to multiply e.g. double; triple; quadruple; and on occasions even more?  Is there something I need to do to stop this or an easy way I can remove the multiples without spending hours doing it manually one by one?  Am I doing something wrong? My O/S is Windows XP SP2 and windows Vista on my Laptop.  I have been using Elements 5 and have just purchased Photoshop Elements 8.0. (Upgrade) and about to install it. Be grateful for any advice as I do enjoy using the program if only I can resolve this issue.  I am not a PC wiz and mainly use Elements to catalogue photos from which I compile collections and from them slide shows with music.  Any advice appreciated Sonny.t PS Have tried to post this previously but without success so hoping to see message appear and a +response

    The organizer doesn't care where you send your photos when you download them via the downloader or where they happen to be when you first bring them in if you use the Get Photos command, but once your pics are in the Organizer, you *must* move them from within organizer or it can't find them. You don't have to use My Pictures at all if you don't want to, but regardless of the folder where you put your photos, if you want them someplace else, you use organizer to do it.

  • I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to give ipads to several other users in a room and control what's on display for the group

    please let me know if you know of any good apps to sync up several ipads in a room with one person in control. I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to control what's on display for several other ipad users in a room. I'd like to be able to do presentations over the ipad, but i want the presenter to control the screens so folks in the meetings don't get distracted by playing with the ipad. i'd like to avoid using a web meeting service and do this without having to connect to any kind of network since i'll often be doing this outside of my office.

  • What type of hard drive replacement should i use to replace the hard drive in my first generation mac min 2005 model a 1103?

    what type of hard drive replacement should I use to replace the hard drive on my first generation mac mini model a 1103?   G4 1.25 mhz 40 gb hd 1 gb. mem.

    You'll need a 2.5" parallel ATA interface hard drive. Most are 5400RPM, forget 7200RPM drives and slower 4200rpm drives.  You don't want a serial ATA (SATA) drive, as that has a different connector and won't work.
    One source I've used for drives is Newegg, and their parallel ATA hard drives are at http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007605%2060000344 2&IsNodeId=1&name=IDE%20Ultra%20ATA100%20%2f%20ATA-6 .  Newegg also has many user comments about the drives. Other sources are OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ (Click on ATA on the left) . Look for at least a 3 year warranty. 

  • How can I run Runtime.exec command in Java To invoke several other javas?

    Dear Friends:
    I met a problem when I want to use a Java program to run other java processes by Runtime.exec command,
    How can I run Runtime.exec command in Java To invoke several other java processes??
    see code below,
    I want to use HelloHappyCall to call both HappyHoliday.java and HellowWorld.java,
    [1]. main program,
    package abc;
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    class HelloHappyCall
         public static void main(String[] args){
              try
                   Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java  -version");
                   Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c java  HelloWorld "); // here start will create a new process..
                   System.out.println("Never mind abt the bach file execution...");
              catch(Exception ex)
                   System.out.println("Exception occured: " + ex);
    } [2]. sub 1 program

    } When I run, I got following:
    Never mind abt the bach file execution...
    I cannot see both Java version and Hellow World print, what is wrong??
    I use eclipse3.2
    Thanks a lot..

    ??First of all, you're not even calling the Happy Holiday one. If you want it to do something, you have to invoke it.
    And by the way, in your comments, you mention that in one case, a new process is created. Actually, new processes are created each time you call Runtime.exec.
    Anyway, if you want the output from the processes, you read it using getInputStream from the Process class. In fact, you really should read that stream anyway (read that URL I sent you to find out why).
    If you want to print that output to the screen, then do so as you'd print anything to the screen.
    in notepad HelloWorld.java, I can see it is opened,
    but in Java, not.I have no idea what you're saying here. It's not relevant whether a source code file is opened in Notepad, when running a program.

  • Linking a common Pages file to several other Pages files

    I have a common section called "Terms and Conditions" that is used in several different documents. If I change the "Terms and Conditions" I have to edit every file that contains that section. Is there a way to "Link" a seperate "Terms and Conditions" file to each document that contains that section, therfore editing only a single file and each document gets updataed automatically?

    Hi emarino,
    You can create a link between Pages documents. It will only serve to open the other document; it won't automatically update the content. You will have to copy the revised Terms and Conditions and paste them into each document.
    Or, just leave it as a link for the user to follow to the revised Terms and Conditions document:
    Page 112 of the Pages User Guide: Linking to Another Pages Document.
    Download the Guide from the Help Menu in Pages.

  • Calling producer/consumer subvi using main vi for image grab acquire

    Hi everyone,
    I am not sure if I get the producer/consumer concept wrong. I tried to write a producer/consumer subvi that simulate continuously grab acquire image. When I call the subvi from the main while loop with a main vi, it seems to run into a infinite loop. I am wondering does anyone know how else can I activate a producer/consumer subvi using main vi? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Han Yen,
    a few remarks :
    - your Top VI has no function what so ever.  So skip that.
    - your image queue has no name, so that gives problems from the minute you're going to use more queues.
    - It does not matter which command you send to the queue, it will start the bottom loop anyway
    - You don't have a check whether "live trial" is true yes or no, so everytime you switch it from T=>F or F=>T is will activate the command.
    I've tweeked your producer-consumer.  Maybe this will give you an idea.  I put some remarks in some places
    Kind regards,

    Hello Hussein Sir,
    I have read all your previous posts indication this error to be generic in nature.
    Well, I have read the error logs of different nodes, but without having much success in it.
    At last, after too much of trying I deleted my VM machine and now I am installing the machine again, with fingers crossed.
    My biggest question is "Can I copy the "Stage Area" of another machine of same configuration and use it on other machine" ?
    At last, I would request you sir to please forward me your personal email address (the one you use often).
    I shall be highly obliged.
    Regards,
