Ring Item text string too long to display all - use ellipses ?

The width of my Ring control is not wide enough to display all characters in the Item text string.  LabVIEW simply truncates the text with no indication that additional text is present.  Is there a way to display an ellipses in such cases ?  For example :
"Ring text string that is too long"
that is now shown as :
"Ring text string that i"
could be shown as :
"Ring text st...too long"

A couple of suggestions:
1.) Use property nodes to determine which strings are too long, then concatenate the strings with ellipses.
2.) Increase the height so the text wraps.

  • Input parameter error: "string too long"

    Hi,
    SAP4Rails and SAPNWRFC run really well now, and I have not experienced a problem for a long, long time.
    However, in an RFC I want to use, there is an import parameter (a plain value), which is of the type SYSUUID. The definition of this type says
    <Format - Data Type "RAW" - No. characters "16"> and <Output Characteristics - Output Length "32">. Locally it works with 32 characters of input, but if I try to call the RFC through SAP4Rails, the error "RfcSetByte string too long" occurrs. Any idea, why this could be?
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Bernd

    This maybe a bug - if you can compile your own sapnwrfc can you try finding the following code:
        if (RSTRING(value)->len > max)
            rb_raise(rb_eRuntimeError, "RfcSetByte string too long: %sn", StringValueCStr(value));
    and changing it to:
    code]
        if (RSTRING(value)->len > max*2)
            rb_raise(rb_eRuntimeError, "RfcSetByte string too long: %s\n", StringValueCStr(value));
    [/code]
    and let me know what effect that has.
    Cheers.

  • XML Input String too long to Test Web Service in App Server

  • String too long, how to auto-truncate it?

    Is there any general purpose add-on which can detect a string is
    too long to insert/update for a database field, and truncate the
    string to insert/update instead of getting ORA-01401 exception?

    I strongly suggest you don't truncate data going into your database. Data in the database should be complete (and valid). Better to limit a user's input to the size of the field in the database by such methods as only providing an input field of x character size so he can't type in too many characters. If a user types in data and its retrieved truncated, he's going to be mad.
    The question is, how large should a column be? If you set the max size to the max size if your current data set, then a future data value may be too large. I don't know the answer to this, but I suggest you be consistent for the same type of columns in multiple tables. For example, if you set the email address to 255 characters in one table, it should be the same in all tables.

  • [Forum FAQ] How to find and replace text strings in the shapes in Excel using Windows PowerShell

    Windows PowerShell is a powerful command tool and we can use it for management and operations. In this article we introduce the detailed steps to use Windows PowerShell to find and replace test string in the
    shapes in Excel Object.
    Since the Excel.Application
    is available for representing the entire Microsoft Excel application, we can invoke the relevant Properties and Methods to help us to
    interact with Excel document.
    The figure below is an excel file:
    Figure 1.
    You can use the PowerShell script below to list the text in the shapes and replace the text string to “text”:
    $text = “text1”,”text2”,”text3”,”text3”
    $Excel 
    = New-Object -ComObject Excel.Application
    $Excel.visible = $true
    $Workbook 
    = $Excel.workbooks.open("d:\shape.xlsx")      
    #Open the excel file
    $Worksheet 
    = $Workbook.Worksheets.Item("shapes")       
    #Open the worksheet named "shapes"
    $shape = $Worksheet.Shapes      
    # Get all the shapes
    $i=0      
    # This number is used to replace the text in sequence as the variable “$text”
    Foreach ($sh in $shape){
    $sh.TextFrame.Characters().text  
    # Get the textbox in the shape
    $sh.TextFrame.Characters().text = 
    $text[$i++]       
    #Change the value of the textbox in the shape one by one
    $WorkBook.Save()              
    #Save workbook in excel
    $WorkBook.Close()             
    #Close workbook in excel
    [void]$excel.quit()           
    #Quit Excel
    Before invoking the methods and properties, we can use the cmdlet “Get-Member” to list the available methods.
    Besides, we can also find the documents about these methods and properties in MSDN:
    Workbook.Worksheets Property (Excel):
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff835542(v=office.15).aspx
    Worksheet.Shapes Property:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff821817(v=office.15).aspx
    Shape.TextFrame Property:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff839162(v=office.15).aspx
    TextFrame.Characters Method (Excel):

    Characters.Text Property (Excel):
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff838596(v=office.15).aspx
    After running the script above, we can see the changes in the figure below:

  • Report takes too long to display

    Post Author: NGCMatt
    CA Forum: Publishing
    I am using Crystal XI, Vsual Studio 2003, SQL Server 2000 and Windows Server 2003. I create a report in Crystal and then add it to my Visual Studio 2003 project. Then using the CrystalReportViewer in Visual Studio 2003 I create a webpage then stick in the CrystalReportViewer on the page then add all the properties and other code in the code behind page. Like a close button on the page so when the user clicks on the close button the crystal report page closes and goes back to the home page.
    When I run the report from my developement machine the report displays in less than 5 seconds and when the close button is clicked the crystal reports page closer in less than 2 seconds and returns to the home page.
    But after I deploy by web app to the server and try to run a report it ALWAYS takes longer than 40 seconds to display and even longer to close. This is driving my customers crazy.
    What am I missing??????
    Thanks for the help.

  • How to edit music album names - too long to display in Ipod

    How can I edit music/audio album names. I don't really care about music but I have a lot of audio files and they all have the same name, followed by "Disk 1," "Disk 2," etc.  The problem is that the "Disk 1" doesn't get displayed because there's not enough room on the Ipod display.  I would think I could edit this in Itunes but don't see how to do it.  I would like to1 shorten the title so the "Disk 1" can be displayed.  Hope that is clear.
    Thanks for any help. 

    You can edit album names in iTunes on your computer.
    Select all of the songs in the album, Select Get Info from the File menu, edit the Album name in the Info tab of the Get Info window and select OK.
    This will change the name of the album. Note that you must change the album name for all of the songs in the album or you will end up with two albums.

  • String too long

    Hello ,
    Requirement is to generate an excel file in DMS .
    Data for this excel file is retreived from Tables , tables have very huge amount of data .
    method used to generate the excel file is :--
    1.  we create a string by concatinating all the data from tables
    but we get dump in creating this string, since we have large amount of data .
    2 . create an Xstring
    3 Convert that to binary
    4. create an excel in DMS
    Can anyone please suggest how can we avoid step 1.
    OR
    Any way by which we can merge two excels to generate one Excel

    Hi,
    That would mean that you'have more than 2GB of data (this is the maximum size of string as far as I know). Does it really make sense to prepare so big files? When user will try to load it into memory it will take ages and I'm pretty sure that with ~65k lines limit in excel it won't be possible to see all results. So maybe it would be better to split this file?
    Best Regards

  • How do I get a table on pages to continue onto the next page if the text is too long?

    I like to make a table to organize information. I just make it like a box. I like to do this for my lesson plans since I am a teacher, but I can't get all my information on the one cell and it just disappears. I attached the picture to help show you what I mean. Cell 4 has more information but it doesn't continure.

    Cells will not split in Pages.
    You should be able to organise your layout without using tables, not that tables are bad pre se, just that they are not an option here.
    If this is important to you, try LibreOffice [free].

  • ORA-01704: string literal too long and PHP

    Ok all of you Oracle experts out there, I've had one heck of a day wrestling with this oracle stuff.
    I've had a couple of posts/threads today with great success and currently I face another problem.
    I'm using PHP/PEAR to execute my queries on an oracle table. I'm trying to store very long (2-3 pages) texts. Currently I'm getting a string too long error.
    I've googled to find that there are certain limits when inserting into a table. The CLOB datafield may hold 4 gigs of text, but you may only insert 4000 bytes at a time. Or at least that's how I understand it.
    Anyone got a work around for this? I've tried:
    OCIBindByName($sql,":fieldName",&$myVariable, -1);
    But that gets me the error:
    ocibindbyname(): supplied argument is not a valid OCI8-Statement resource
    which is an actual PHP/PEAR error....I think...
    Anyone out there have any work around suggestions? I really dont want to parse the insert statement into pieces each being less then 4000 bytes.
    Thanks,

    Just enviroment configuration in /etc/profile or .profile is not enough.
