Saving all checked menu items before closing the vi (.exe) panel to a file & restoring it later

Hello all,
I am using a customized menu bar for my labview application. I need to have a feature to save the context of the entire menu bar before closing the vi and also to restore it later on reopening. Basically I have given menu items which get "checked" upon user selection. Is there any efficient way to handle this?..Though I have seen an example (under default examples which come with labview) of context saving for controls and indicators, but it is becoming tedious for menu bar as it has a lot of menu items to be saved.
Please suggest something for this.
Thanks

Maintain an array that keeps track of all the menu items that become checked or are changed to a non-default status. Every time a menu gets changed, add that to the array. Anytime that a menu gets set back to the default value, search the array and delete that item from it.
Now when your program closes, you have an array of everything that is non-default. Write that out to a file. When your program restarts, load that file and change all the menu times listed to match.

When I restart the browser, its not opening the previously opened tabs even though I saved before closing the browser. Pls guide me.

Dear sir,
When I restart the browser, its not opening the previously opened tabs even though I saved before closing the browser. This problem was not there in the older versions less than 3.6.8. Even the browser speed has gone down. This is everyday problem with this browser.
Pls suggest ASAP.
Thanks & Regards,

Check menue item does not work

Hello,
I create a menu item MI_DEBUG of type Check in a submenu named EXTRAS_MENU.
In the menu item code I want to enable debug logging of the current user actions.
In the Menu Startup Code I set the status UNCHECKED.
When the user clicks the menu item I want the status to be changed to CHECKED and back on a second click
Menu Startup Code
DECLARE
    mi_id   MENUITEM;
BEGIN
    mi_id   := find_menu_item('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG');
    IF id_null(mi_id) THEN
        my_debug.pl('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG not found','zvc_menu.mmb Menu Startup Code');
    ELSE
        set_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
    END IF;
END;Menu Item Code
DECLARE
    mi_id   MENUITEM;
BEGIN
    mi_id   := find_menu_item('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG');
    IF id_null(mi_id) THEN
        my_debug.pl('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG not found','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
    ELSE
        my_debug.pl('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG found','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
        my_debug.pl('Status '||get_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED),'zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
        IF get_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED) = 'TRUE' THEN
            my_debug.pl('property(CHECKED) = TRUE','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
        ELSE
            my_debug.pl('property(CHECKED) = FALSE','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
        END IF;
    END IF;
END;But I never get the checked sign in the menu and every time my debug messages say, that the property CHECKED = 'TRUE'.
I even have tried it with PROPERTY_ON/OFF as some examples suggest, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas what is wrong with my code?
Forms [32 Bit] Version 11.1.1.4.0 (Production)
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
Regards
Marcus

Hm. In that case the only thing that comes to my mind is to apply the latest patchset for forms 11gR1 which is 11.1.1.6 if memory serves.Not possible, applying patches requires tons of tests for many applications.
Does it work in a previous version of forms?This is a new menu item and I have not other version available to test.
Another thing I found: When I open or close a form after clicking the menu item, then the check mark appears. Changing the label of an item works without opening a form.
Therefore I changed my Menu Item Code to
DECLARE
    mi_id   MENUITEM;
BEGIN
    mi_id   := find_menu_item('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG');
    IF id_null(mi_id) THEN
        my_debug.pl('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG not found','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
    ELSE
        my_debug.pl('EXTRAS_MENU.MI_DEBUG found','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
        my_debug.pl('Status '||get_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED),'zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
        IF get_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED) = 'TRUE' THEN
            my_debug.pl('property(CHECKED) = TRUE','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED,PROPERTY_FALSE);
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,LABEL,'Debug on');
        ELSE
            my_debug.pl('property(CHECKED) = FALSE','zvc_menu.mmb mi_debug');
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,CHECKED,PROPERTY_TRUE);
            set_menu_item_property(mi_id,LABEL,'Debug off');
        END IF;
    END IF;
END;Now when I click the menu item the first time, the label changes immediately, but not the check mark. When I click the menu item a second time without opening a form the label does not change, this means, that the property CHECKED is only changed, when a form is opend/closed.
Even better: The initial label id Debug, clicking the item should change it to+ Debug on+ and on subsequent clicks change between Debug on and Debug off
1. Click -> Label changes to "Debug on", check mark unchanged
2. open a form
3. Check mark is shown but label is the default Debug
4. close the form
5. Check mark is not shown, label is back to Debug on
6. Repeat step 2 - 5 with the same result
Different sequences of clicking and opening/closing forms give seemingly random combinations of check mark on/off and label texts.
Conclusion:
A menu check item is a very obstinate thing. I will not use it if I can avoid it.

Multiple drop down menu items to populate the a separate text box...more help please

Thanks to Gilad D67 for showing me how to have multiple drop down menu items appear in a separate text box. This stuff blows my mind. Is there any script I can use to make a new drop down menu item appear in the same text box, but on a new line below a previous entry. For example. I select 'cat' from my drop down menu and it appears in my text box. Now I choose 'dog' from my menu and it appears in my text box like so 'cat dog.' Is there any way I can make 'dog' go straight to a new line automatically without having to manually go into the text box and change it?
cat
dog (new selection goes straight to a new line)
Now, I don't have a clue if this is also possible, but imagine, I don't like my drop down menu selection of 'dog' and I go back into the menu and I change to 'rat' but in the text box, 'dog' still appears and 'rat' is added. Do I have to manually delete 'dog' from the text box or is there script that can do this for me.
Any assistance would be incredible. It amazes me how people know this stuff.
This is the script I have so far
(function () {
    // Do nothing if not committed
    if (event.willCommit) return;
    // Set up an array to hold the individual paragraphs of text
    var aQuotes = [3];
    // Populate the array with the paragraph text
    aQuotes[0] = "Use common singular nouns, plural nouns [plural ‘s’] and proper names to say what things are"
    aQuotes[1] = "Use numbers 1–10 to count"
    aQuotes[2] = "Use basic adjectives and colours to say what someone/something is or has"
    // Get the selected item, which is the export value of the selected combo box item
    var item = event.changeEx
    // Display the text corresponding to the selected item in the text field
    getField("Text30").value += " " + aQuotes[item];

You have to set the option for the text field to be multiline and then change the last line of the script to:
getField("Text30").value += "\r" + aQuotes[item];
To reset the field you can use a separate button with a Clear Form command, and then you just select this one field from the list.

Multiple drop down menu items to populate the same separate text box. How can I do it?

In Acrobat Pro X, I've figured out how to create a drop down menu with items that will populate a separate text box, but how can I get multiple menu items to populate the same text box. For example. My drop down menu has three items cat, dog, mouse. I choose cat and it appears in my separate text box (hooray). Next, I choose 'dog' from the same menu. I would like it to appear in the same text box along with my previous selection 'cat.' Is this possible? I'm very new to Java Script, any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

She is the script I'm using
(function () {
    // Do nothing if not committed
    if (event.willCommit) return;
    // Set up an array to hold the individual paragraphs of text
    var aQuotes = [3];
    // Populate the array with the paragraph text
    aQuotes[0] = "cat"
    aQuotes[1] = "dog"
    aQuotes[2] = "mouse"
    // Get the selected item, which is the export value of the selected combo box item
    var item = event.changeEx
    // Display the text corresponding to the selected item in the text field
    getField("Text field 1").value = aQuotes[item];

Cannot save opened tabs before closing the browser

Cannot save opened tabs before closing the browser. I do not know if there is such a feature (should be), and how to activate it.
It was very useful with previous version.

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

Can Dropdown menu item stay on the "roll over" state while the user's mouse is hoving over the sub

Can Dropdown menu item stay on the "roll over" state while the user's mouse is hoving over the parent's sub-menus?
Thanks

Thanks for the response. My main goal here is to get the drop
down menu word "Overview" to remain red once it reaches the frame
"WhoWeAre" or "OurMission" on the main timeline. If I turn the
button inside the movie clip into an MC to do this, the drop down
menu no longer works. Any thoughts on how to get this drop down
menu to do this?

Hi VC,
As per my understanding the code should be placed between --.
Based on this i have placed the code
function setCheckbox(pThis, pItem){
alert('inside');
    var l_code = '';
    // Get checkbox name
    rName = document.getElementsById('P1_ENG_BAU').firstChild.name;
alert("The value is"+rName);
    // Fire AJAX
    var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=CHECKBOX_LIST',0);
    get.add('F120_COMPANY',pThis.value);
    gReturn = get.get('XML');
    if (gReturn) {
      var values = gReturn.getElementsByTagName('value');
      var messages = gReturn.getElementsByTagName('message');
      // Build the checkbox
      for (i=0; i<values.length; i++) {
        var rValue = values.firstChild.nodeValue;
var rMessage = messages[i].firstChild.nodeValue;
l_code+='<input id='+P1_ENG_BAU+'_'+i+' type=checkbox value='+rValue+' name='+rName+'>';
l_code+='<label for='+P1_ENG_BAU+'_'+i+'>'+rMessage+'</label>
document.getElementsById('P1_ENG_BAU').innerHTML = l_code;
Correct me if iam understanding is wrong.
Thanks,

Make a menu item that changes the window

Since I am always changing the interface of Brandsonic Web, I would like to make a menu item that would allow the user to change the window to a window they like.

Quitting the Application Before Closing the Window?

I have a 6 day old iMac running Snow Leopard. I already knew that closing the window on most Apps did not close the program, so instead of closing the window, I would just click on, ie, "Quit Safari" and the Safari window would then close. I don't do that anymore, now I close the Window first, and then quit the App. Could I have caused any harm to the OS by just quitting the App, and letting that close the window?

It's OK to close the app without closing the window. I never close the windows when quitting an app, I just hit CMD-Q. It does no damage.
