Saving color map from intesity graph to jpg

Hi to all..
I have 2D array ( of numbers) and I use intensity graph to convert the numbers to a color map.
But I want to save this color map to jpg file (as image.. )
How do I do that?
Thanks
Eruvi

In that case, I would make a copy of the Intensity Graph, and deselect every option under the "Visible Items" right-click menu. At that point, all that should be left would be the gray frame of the Intensity Graph. At this point, you can use the Paintbrush Tool, right-click on the gray border, and choose the 'T' in the color picker to make it transparent. At this point, your Intensity Graph should only show the colored graph region and nothing else. Then you can use the method I described to export the image to disk. I have attached a screenshot of a front panel of a VI with an Intensity Graph with all parts other than the graph region made non-visible.
Hope this helps,
-D

A way to get information about colored points from a graph?

Two questions:
1. Is there a possibility to know whether a specific point is already plotted in a graph and what is the color of that specific point?
2. Is there a way to use the legend in order to show what each colored point represents (not lines, only colored points..)?
Thank you!

1. I used PlotPoint & a function "returncolor" in order to make each colored point present a different situation depend on variable 'x':
double m_abs (double x) {
if (x < 0) return -x;
return x;
int returncolor (double x) {
if (m_abs(x) <= 0.05) return VAL_GREEN;
if (m_abs(x) <= 0.15 && m_abs(x) > 0.05) return VAL_BLUE;
if (m_abs(x) <= 0.25 && m_abs(x) > 0.15) return VAL_DK_MAGENTA;
return VAL_RED;
The problem occurs when PlotPoint used twice for the exact same point with different colors so only the last colored point would remain.
I want that in this case, only the color with the maximum variable 'x': would remain..
Sם I can solve it by saving the data to 2D array.. but I thought maybe there is an option to get true or false whether a point exist on a specific location in a graph or not, and what is the color of that point.
2. Yes, I have already used annotations., but too bad there is no way to put legend for colored points..

Color map scale for 3d graph

Hi
I have a 3d graph with x,y,z having the surface co-ordinates and w matrix having a value at each co-ordinate. I am trying to scale the color map applied. I know the color map values and and color numbers can be called from the property mode, but how to draw the scale so that it inidcates the color of corresponding values on w matrix.
Thanks

3d graph color map help for cvi

I've plotted my data to a 3d graph using CW3DGraphLib. The data I am most interested in is the highest 10%. I can change the Z axis to only show this 10%, but the colors are all red. I would like to modify the color map so it maps only the data that I set in the max and min scale. 90 to 100%. Does anyone know how to do this? Also, I am looking for any additional help files on the CW3DGraphLib. When you click on the function panel it says no help file available.

Hello Keith,
I think the following forum will be helpful.

How do I remove saved colors from color palette?

If I open the color palette in Mail there are several I have saved at the bottom, in the little squares below the color circle. Some are duplicates or ones I don't want any more. Yet I cannot get rid of them. Can't drag them off and can't find a way to eliminate them. Does anyone have an idea about this?
Thanks,
Richard

Richard & Jeffrey,
Thank you for posing the question and answering it. It is just what I wanted.
Now one more thing Jeffrey - to put the icing on the cake(!)... can I name that saved color? I've tried clicking on it, but nothing happens.
Thanks

Color Map not showing time-dependent change

I am using the latest Sound and Vibration Measurement Suite in Signal Express. I have a Spectral Map step in my program, which includes a Color Map. I am recording an accelerometer's transient response to an impact, and want to see the time-dependent frequency intensity changes as a function of time, so a color map should be perfect. I have no problem recording the accelerometer's transient response in a time graph, and I also see the power spectrum in another graph. While the color map indeed shows various frequencies at different intensity levels, I don't see the intensity of any of the frequencies change over the course of the 200 ms that I'm recording, while the time graph clearly shows the decaying waveform. Why doesn't the color map show a decrease in intensity of the respective frequencies as time progresses through the transient? I have everything set up to display and record the first 200 ms of the impact. At the end of this period, the intensity should go to almost zero.
Please see the attached .seproj file to review the parameters I have set.
Also, with the same .seproj file, I will occassionally get a Buffer Overflow error. From this file, can you tell me what setting I need to change. But I need to make sure that all data both displayed and recorded, is for the 200 ms timeframe specified (10 ms before the trigger and 190 ms after). The ADC I'm using is an NI 9234 in a cDAQ-9172 chassis.
Thanks,
--Tim

Tim,
I am trying to figure out where this would be able to recognize the changes since the data would be taken from an analysis of one .2 second signal. Have you tried to analyze more than the one signal taken in? When I ran this project I got the display on the bottom right to show one signal as having been read which makes sense when looking at the data. If you wanted to see the changes over the 200 ms timeframe I would have it run continuous DAQmx acquires for that timeframe. It appears the analysis that we see stays static because it is doing analysis of only one data set that came in. I would think that the change in time that you want to see would have to have analysis done on multiple sample sets to notice the differences from one set to the next.

Is it possible to display the color map of a 3D Surface plot on the Front Panel?

This would be a very useful feature to include, especially if you are just displaying the top-down (XY) projection of your plot (otherwise there's no way to visualize the amplitude that a given color represents). I know that the Intensity Graph allows you to display the Z-axis color map, but I want to use the 3D Graph control for some of the other features it offers...

I had the same question. After quite a bit of playing around with properties, methods, color ramps, viewing examples and reading a bit about it, I discovered a way to do this. Basically use the ColorMapValues and ColorMapColors properties from the 3D graph and modify them slightly and feed these into the ZScale.Marker.Vals[] on an intensity chart or the Scale.MarkerVals[] on the color ramp. See the attached example.
I think the diagram is self-documenting and pretty darn simple. I have a couple of notes on the front panel that help explain the vi.
Good luck.

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF?

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF? Currently when I have a Framemaker book that I want to save as a PDF, I choose Save Book As and then choose PDF for the file format. A dialog box comes up in which I can choose the Bookmarks tab and choose which tagged content I want to be made into bookmarks in the PDF file. What if I would rather have the filename of a document rather than the chapter title be a bookmark in the PDF? Is that possible? Where would I choose that option? Thanks!

There are two ways that you could do this. You can either use postscript text frames and enter the correct pdfmark entries to show the file name with the corresponding actions (i.e. where to go in the PDF) or you can use hidden text in FM and the "Filename (Short) " variable in a unique paratag to be picked up by FM's bookmark creation.
To go the pdfmark route, see http://www.pdflib.com/fileadmin/pdflib/pdf/pdfmark_primer.pdf for details and also consult the Adobe Pdfmark Reference manual (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdfmark_reference.pdf).
The hidden text route would use FM's Color Views to specify a colour as Invisible. This will make the content visually disappear from the screen (and any output), but FM will still be able to read the contents of any text that is coloured with the Invisible colour(s).
1. Pick or create a colour that you want to be invisible. [Magenta is usually a good bet and stands out visually].
2. Set that colour to be invisible in View 1 and visible in View 6. [you can use the shortcut <esc> v 1 and <esc> v 6 to toggle between the views.]
3. Create a paratag to use for the filename and set the font colour to use the invisible colour.
3. In the title of each chapter file, drop an anchored frame that is set to be outside of the text frame [so it won't interfere with any other content].
4. In that AFrame, insert a text frame and use the invisible paratag defined in step 3.
5. Insert the Filename (Short) variable in that text frame.
6. Repeat steps for all files to be included in the bookmarks.
When creating the PDF bookmarks, select only the paratag used for the invisible colour.
Don't forget to toggle the View to be invisible (i.e. <esc> v 1 - this also works at the book level for all files in the book).

Saving webi document from BOXI 3.0 in excel with special character

Issue :Saving webi document from BOXI 3.0 in excel with special character as report name then file name in excel is not correct.
This happens only with Mozilla, get correct file name in IE.
Steps to Reproduce:
1)Create a simple XI3.0 webi report through mozilla browser
2)Save the webi report with special character name for e.g øäåýþ.
3)Open the webi report and save it as excel or pdf file.
4)Report name øäåýþ saved, displays with other junk characters instead of actual reporta name( øäåýþ)
5)When saving the save report through IE browser in excel or PDF display correct report name øäåýþ in excel and PDf file.
Even after making changes in character encoding to UTF in the Firefox options (Content tab-> font & colors : advanced button -> Character encoding does not make any difference.
Has anyone came across such type of issue?
Whether this is limitation of Firefox or bug.

Mapping from 2d to 3d

Hello
Can someone please give me a link or explain to me how or the logic behind mapping from 2d to 3d. I was told that you have to create a perspective plane. How do you do this?
Any input will be a help.
Thanks.

I don't think there's anything called a perspective plane. But here's how 3D graphics work. If you want to draw something that looks like an object that is sitting in 3D space some distance behind the screen, you have to figure out what part of it the user would see when looking through each individual pixel of the screen, and then set the pixel to that color. Essentially, you'd like to "flatten" the 3D object onto a 2D plane (the screen). This transformation is called a projection. One simple way to do it would be to drop a perpendicular from each point on the object to a point on the screen, and draw that bit of the object there. This is called orthogonal projection. However, this isn't realistic. In reality, people have eyes which are located at a particular point in space, close to the screen. (For simplicity, assume the user has 1 single, infinitesimally small eye). The rays from the eye to each point on the screen are not parallel, so you can't just "flatten" an object onto the surface, but rather you have to "push" it along a cone from the eye. (Try drawing a picture of an eye, a screen, and an object behind it). One effect of this is that an object will seem smaller the farther it is from the user. In fact, by knowing how far the user is from the screen and how far the object is from the screen, you can figure out exactly where each point in 3D space goes by using simple triangle similarity (again, draw a picture). This is called perspective projection, and in the end, after all the math, it basically amounts to dividing the x, y coordinates of a point by its z coordinate (if your screen is the (x,y) plane and its center is at (0,0,0)).
Try to look for a book on computer graphics for a better explanation. There can be quite a bit of math involved if you want to make a full 3D system with non-fixed camera position and direction.

10g Graphs - How to customize the default color of a Bar Graph

Hi,
I've posted this thread in Reports section, have received no reply yet. Maybe no one has ever tried this before!!
I am porting a couple of 6i OGD's to 10g graphics.
Basically I am invoking reports from a form. The reports contains embedded Graph.
Here comes the tricky part.
I have a couple of Graphs in 6i that display each bar of a bar graph in different color.
Example:
Value       Bar Color
Critical     Red
Major       Orange
Minor       Yellow
None       GrayQ) I want to know how to set the color of each bar of a bar graph based on the value it takes. i,e If it's critical the bar should be displayed in red. If it's major, the bar should be displayed in orange.
I added conditional formatting in 10g Graph, and this is the trigger that was created.
function CT_1FormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
-- Automatically Generated from Reports Builder.
if (:f19 > -1)
then
    srw.set_foreground_border_color('yellow');
    srw.set_border_pattern('solid');
    srw.set_foreground_fill_color('yellow');
    srw.set_fill_pattern('solid');
end if;
-- Automatically Generated from Reports Builder.
if (:f20 > -1)
then
    srw.set_foreground_border_color('red');
    srw.set_border_pattern('solid');
    srw.set_foreground_fill_color('red');
    srw.set_fill_pattern('solid');
end if;
return (TRUE);
end;When I try to invoke the above report from the form, I get the error: FRM-41214: Unable to run report.
If I remove conditional formatting, I am able to invoke the report from the form with the default color in the embedded graph.
Hopefully someone has ideas on this!
Thanks

Why don't you use the build-in charting capability of reports 10g instead? There is FormsGraph.jar implementation for forms but that might not have the flexibility of what 6i graphs has/had and not "officially" supported - not like the reports 10g charting capability (which is built in and can be customized by editing the related xml files (if necessary). Note: FormsGraph.jar has it's own limitations

Do you know a VI or a mean to remove plots from a graph?

I'd like to remove plots from a graph and i know their
x-cordinate do you know a VI or a mean to remove them?
Thank you for yours answers.

A graph is just a display of different points in graphical form. You can actually get the points out of the graph, remove the points of the plot you want to take out from the array, and put it back into the graph.
Another way I've done it is to use the property nodes, and make the color of the line on the graph transparent. That way, the data is still there, but the plot is invisible.

Printable Maps from MapViewer - 600dpi

Hi -
We would like to create print quality maps from MapViewer in the 600 DPI range. We've noticed that MapViewer will bomb out if we specify an image size over 2000 px in size, which means that at 600 dpi, the largest image would be about 3 inches square.
Also, as larger images are created (larger meaning more pixels x pixels), the markers and text size get relatively smaller. I would think the size of these features would be based on the DPI setting when they are rendered. Is there any way to change the DPI for a request, or plans to support such a thing?
Thanks,
--ee

Thanks to all for the replies.
In response to the first reply, when importing the shapefile I select the default styling which I think is generally a red color for the content. Nothing out of the ordinary there.
For the themes, I actually tried it both ways. First just importing without the theme creation and doing it manually. I also tried it using the flow generated by the utility and still no luck.
The map renders beautifully in the MapBuilder tool. I can preview it and move around although the zoom in and out does cause some of the layers to drop. So everything is perfect until I try and view it in an AJAX enabled page.
I thought that the scaling factor may be a source of the problem but my question is how do you know what to use for the minx and maxx parameters? The SRID that I used was the WGS84 which is something like 4326. This is actually selectable when doing the import with the MapBuilder tool.
So is there a rule of thumb for chosing the minx and maxx parameters? Also, do you set the minx and maxx in the MapBuilder or are these properties for the mapviewer page?

Is it possible to upload color groups from Illustrator CC?

Is there anyway to upload a color group from Illustrator to Adobe Cloud and have it appear as a Color Theme? I can only seem to upload individual colors. Alternatively, is it possible to group individual colors that have been uploaded into a Color Theme?
I am running Illustrator CC 18.1.1 on Mac 10.9.5 (Mavericks.)
Thanks,.

Upload? You should be able to tap and hold down on an image until the Copy or Save Image options popup. Tap Save and it should be saved to the camera roll album in the photos app.
