Same object size (front panel) with different screen resolution

Hi everybody,
I realised an application, and I try to instal it on various computer. The probleme is that they haven't the same screen resolution, so the front panel is not the same on each computer. It is possible to build an application which have the same front panel with different screen resolution ?

Hi Krisss,
switch off any "adapt to screen resolution" switches in the VI properties...
You should also define "same front panel" and "same object size"! Do you mean the same pixel size or size in mm or size in percent of screen?

Photoshop RAW processing with different screen resolutions

Hi, I know this might not be fully a photoshop question, but I have done so many searches online & am unable to find anything.
I usually do RAW photo editing on photoshop on my old Fujitsu laptop & have recently I have upgraded to a MacBook Pro. I have noticed that when I do the same kind of processing on my Macbook, the photos tend to not be as dark & have contrast as I would normally like it to be.
Meaning to say, photos that look really dark in on my Macbook look rather greyed & washed out on my Fujitsu, however the photos I have processed on my Fujitsu all look nicely exposed on my Macbook.
So is this due to different screen resolutions? Because the photos I have edited on my mac look really different when compared to on my fujitsu, like the colours etc. Please do advise me on what exactly is the problem & what I can do to solve it. Thanks!

It all depends on the colour range, brightness, and contrast of the screen, and the screen technology. The only way to make somewhat sure that the colours are "correct" and consistent is to purchase a hardware screen calibration device, like a spyder. But even then the laptop screens tend to be quite bad for this type of work.

Wire Aligment with Different Screen Resolutions

I've noticed that block diagram wire positions/alignments can change, sometimes significantly, in moving to monitors with different resolutions. There's a ton of information about maintaining proportions on the front panel as resolution changes, but I can't find how to mitigate the issue with wires on the block diagram. Does anybody know how best to handle this?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've never noticed the block diagram change due to screen resolutions. I have seen issues like this when changing system fonts. For instance, going from XP to Win7 meant going to Aero font, which is a bigger font than whatever XP used for its default system font.

How can I make my website compatible with different screen resolutions?

Here is the page that I'm struggling with:
http://www.starbuckscollect.com/2013.html
Everything is pinned to the top and center pin except for the cards.
My problem is on certain screen resolutions that are not 'wide screen' you are not able to see all of the cards when you scroll down. Some of you may not see my problem when you open up the page which is good. For you guys, the way to see my problem is to 'zoom out' of the screen and to do that press 'ctrl' and '-'
Is there any way of avoiding this?

How to adjust website to work with multiple screen resolutions?

Pleese help!

hello i have recently designed this website and the formatting isnt correct when veiwed with different screen resolutions
Just so you'll know, and to keep the thread clear, resolution has nothing to do with how your page renders or is formatted. A given page will look exactly the same on any resolution screen provided you keep the browser width the same pixel value. It's the variation in that width from one resolution screen to another that causes the difference. And yes, it's the fact that you have used absolute positioning as a primary layout method that is the problem for the reason that JTANNA has already mentioned.
Now - how do you want your page to behave? Do you want it to be fixed width and centered (that would be the easiest). In that case, change this -
<body>
to this -
<body>
<div style="width:928px;margin:0 auto;position:relative">
and this -
</body>
to this -
</div>
</body>
Now, reposition all of your AP containers so that the page is again aligned the way you want, and you're done.

Slave display with different screen..

In many instances of machine applications where LV is used the PC monitor is the primary ( and only) display.
But there are also many sensor DPMs ( digital panel meters ) which are provided for user convenience. And there is a problem here - never do the values displayed by LV match with that of the DPMs! Both are within 0.05 or so but still not the same.
Also is the fact that I need to find a place to fix these DPMs . All in all there needs to be a more elegant solution.
I was thinking of another 15" LCD monitor that can be made to show only the DPM values in a tabular format and the input for this monitor SHOULD come from LV and must the same as shown on the primary monitor. Maybe a shared variable can be used for this ?? If I use the same variable to update the value in primary as well as the slave montior, then the issue of variance is eliminated.
Question is : Can LV be made to drive two different monitors with different screen images at the same time ? Is there any plug in hardware that can help do this ?
Any ideas are most welcome.
Thanks

LV2012 to Automate Hydraulic Test rigs.

Dear Johnsold,
Yeah I have made some progress. But not got to the end still.
- Put the secondary monitor in DualView ( independent configuration )
- Edit the VI properties of the MaxValGauge. vi to run in the secondary monitor
With all of the above I ran the MaxValMaster.VI. Immediatley the MaxValGauge also was launched and I could move it with my mouse "into the second monitor " So far so good.
I stopped the main VI and then was surprised to see that the MaxValGauge.vi vanish from the second monitor and worse still the needle shrinked and the markings vanished ( I do not know how that happens ).See the attached image.
I thought once manually positioned and stopped, LV will remember the position. But it is not so I think. Maybe I need to programmatically set the bounds as given in an example in this thread. In the meanwhile I would like to know why the needle got disfigured so badly ...?
Thanks

Remote front panel with labview 8.6 executable

I am trying to create a remote front panel of my application, built in an executable using Labview 8.6. I want to run that application on a target machine (not the one used for developing the project) and view and control the front panel of the VI from a web browser on another computer.
I have followed these steps:
How can I use remote front panels with Labview Executables?
But when I finally open the web browser and navigate to the URL I obtain that the page cannot be found.
I have my Labview project created and I have built a web page using Web publishing tool. I have saved it in my Labview 8.6/www directory and added it to the project. I have built my executable including HTML file and copied all the obtained folders to the target PC.
Then, I have modified the .ini file like in the step 7, but when I arrive to the step 8 I don't know what to do. Which niwebserver.conf should I modify? The one localized at Labview 8.6 directory of the target machine? Or the one that is created in the directory where I have copied the executable when I run the executable?
In the DocumentRoot tag I have to replace the default Labview/www with the location of my HTML file. Should I use quotation marks or no?
Have you got any ideas of what is happening?
Thanks!

Ok, but when I create the executable, in the folder where the application.exe and .ini are there isn't a file called niwebserver.conf. When I run the application a file with this name appear in the directory (the one I include), but it hasn't the section Directives that apply to the default server as in the manual.
What I have done is to copy the niwebserver.conf file ubicated in the Labview 8.6 of the target machine in the same directory of the executable but it doesn´t work...

In the tools palette, the LED on the top must be glowing. This indicates that you have selected the "Automatic Tool Selection"

Hi,
    When I double click the object on Front panel, it opens a new front panel with that object instead of locating that object on Block Diagram.
It is opening the Control Editor panel because You have checked the "Open control editor when Double click" to true as shown in figure.
Goto
Tools>>Options, select front panel from the dropdown menu and uncheck the "Open the control editor with double click"
Uncheck it.

How do Illstrator recognize if same plug-in will place with different name.

Hi All,
We are developing an Illutrator CS4 plug-in. we have source code of the plug-in. we need to add some extra features to that plug-in and build with new name. older one will work as it was. and newer one will work with new features. So both plug will resides same place with different name. the problem is, when I compile older soruce code and change the plug-in name. I'm getting error while loading plug-in it looks "older and newer version get conflict while name is different.
Is Illustrator maintain any unique ID for each plug-in. if so, then where should i look for in my code?
How do Illstrator recognize if same plug-in will place with different name?
Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance,
Johirul

I don't believe Illustrator has anything like a UID for plugins. If you want them to co-exist, either make them named differently or put them in different sub-folders.
On a related note, you CAN optionally set a plugin's name. You could then iterate over the plugin list at start up (before you set your name) and see if there's already a plugin with the same name. We do this to *prevent* our plugin from loading twice, but you don't seem to want that. I only mention this because this is about as close to 'unique identifiers' that AI gets, and frankly nothing stops you from having multiple plugins with the same name.

11gr1 - Handling different screen resolutions for an enterprise app.

Hi,
We are developing an enterprise application that will be deployed at different clients with different hardware.
We are confused about how to handle different screen resolutions and wonder how others are handling this.
We have some fixed size areas in our screens and liquid areas for content that may expand. The problem is say that you have a table with 6 columns. This table will be rendered nicely at 1280X800 but not at 1650X1050 or 800X600.
At higher resolutions we will either end up having some blank space or expand one of the columns of the table , but can't expand every column proportionally and this will look ugly.
For lower resolutions same problem in a different way will come into picture, we will not able to resize the columns and end up with scroll bars etc ...
What is the best practice with handling different screen resolutions for components like table,panel splitter etc ?
Thanks

Hi Muhammed,
I don't think that any better solution exists, you already use liquid layouts and define widths & heights with percentages etc. In my opinion using blank column at the end of table columns makes table's looking better. Additionally creating custom skin for table and defining column heights & widths with % or em may help you to stretch columns?

Images: Different screen resolutions, howto ...?

As you might know, there are several screen resolutions, used by different devices (iPhone 3G/3GS/4, iPad). You might take a look at: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2993006/designing-for-varying-mobile-device-resolutions -i-e-iphone-4-iphone-3g An example: If i would like to build a generic app, with optimized images for the iPhone 3G/3GS, 4 and iPad, how can i implement the images within my application with the use of different screen resolutions (dpi). 3G: image_low_res.jpg, 4: image_high_res.jpg etc. Is there a better overview for iOS devices showing the exact resolution (dpi)?

In objectiveC/XCode, you would have two images - one at standard size, and one at double resolution for the retina display. The double-resultion image has a '@2x' suffix just before extension. The OS automaticallt uses the correct image depending on the type of phone (i.e. it uses the @2x image on the iPhone4, and the original image everywhere else).
Of course this doesn't help us in Flash. I don't think Adobe have built this feature in to the packager?
Perhaps a good way to achieve the same results is to have the application detect the phone type on startup/constructor by checking the screen size (Capabilities.screenResolutionX/Y). Then, whenever you need a screen coordinate, distance or an image, you have a custom class (probably static methods) that you ask for this information.
It seems like a lot of work, but if you are really keen on supporting the retina display, this is probably your best bet!
Psuedo code:
// Two images in the library
// spriteA.png
// [email protected]
// All my coordinates are measured in original iPhone coords (320x480)
// I am now asking for a point in the middle of the screen
// If I am on iPhone4, the resulting point will be (320,480)
// If I am on iPhone, the resulting point will be (160,240)
var p : Point = ResHandler.createPoint( 160, 240 );
// Now I grab my bitmap
// If I am on iPhone, the resulting bitmap will be spriteA.png
// If I am on iPhone4, the resulting bitmap will be [email protected]
var b : Bitmap = ResHandler.createBitmap( 'spriteA' );
// Now place the bitmap
b.x = p.x;
b.y = p.y;
addChild( b );
// Now move the bitmap by 100 pixels.
// If I am on iPhone the resulting distance will be 100 pixels
// If I am on iPhone4, the resulting distance will be 200 pixels
var d : Number = ResHandler.getDistance( 100 );
b.x += d;
Hope it helps

Help with T430 screen resolution

I would like to purchase a T430 with 1600x900 screen resolution as recommended in the reviews. However, I am concerned about whether I will be able to read text at that resolution. (This was an issue with the higher resolution when I purchased my beloved T400.) I cannot find a T430 in my area to look at before purchase. So, I am wondering whether some kind soul might be willing to post a screenshot of the desktop (with icons on it) of their T430 1600x900. Viewed at the original size, I should be able to determine from that image whether it will be legible, right?
Solved!

There are no stores in my area that carry the T430. I would have to travel 3 hours to see one. But if the screenshot would not tell me what I need to know, maybe I will need to do just that.
I didn't say a ThinkPad. Any computer with a 14" screen running 1600x900 natively will give you some idea if that resolution is going to be acceptable.
If the closest computer store is 3 hours, it probably isn't worth doing. 6 hours round trip is a lot of time and hassle.
