Set Labels Position

Hi all,
Is there no way I can set the position of the labels on my form.
Thanks

Ah... but your forgetting about the Law of Diminishing Return. The larger the cup, the larger the vehicle needed for transporting it. Once the cup reaches the size of a 18-wheel semi tractor trailor you may wish you had gotten a smaller cup.... not to mention the affects of drinking all that coffee!

Setting Default Label Position

Hi all
When I create a Boolean (or anything else), LV defaults to putting the label above the control and left justified. I like to change that so that the default location for a label is just to the right and top justified.
Anyone know how to do this?

I've heard this advice about the justification before, but many times it
doesn't seem necessary. If the label is totally above or below the
control, then the justification will determine which edge of the label
moves while the top or bottom is maintained. As long as autosizing is
turned on and the label projected horizontally intersects with the frame
of the control, the justification doesn't matter since the right or left
edge, whichever is next to the control will be maintained.
As for th
e orginal question, this is something you can change with
custom controls or typedefs, but the built-in control label position
cannot be controlled.

Spacing, alignment and labels position ...

How can I adjust the spacing between items? When exporting as a PDF there's a ton of wasted space on printed forms, making it hard to fit much on a single page.
Why do I have to adjust the "labels position" for the whole document? How can I just adjust it for the item selected?
If I set "labels left" and try to adjust the width of the "edit label" field, it adusts all the "edit label" fields in the whole document. How can I adjust one without affecting the others?

Yes, for fields that are the first in a row and that have label position set to Left or Right, they do share a "global" caption reserve (label width). This FAQ goes into a little more detail:

Agentry 7.0.3.504 - Label Position Issue

I am creating a simple Agentry application with a list screen, detail screen, and transaction screen. I would like the field labels to be on top for the detail and transaction screens. I've set the "Label Position" property to 'Top' but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the screen. You can see in the screenshot below that the property is set but the labels are still showing to the left. I've confirmed that I see this same behavior in the Agentry test environment and the Agentry client for Windows. Can you think of anything that I might be doing wrong?

Christopher,
You aren't doing anything wrong. Label on Top setting only works for smart phone devices: iOS or Android. To implement on Windows, you would need to create separate label fields directly above the actual fields. Then leave the label on the actual fields blank.

Set label to appear to the right of control/indicator in a block diagram

Hello,
I'm just wondering if there is anyway to set the preference in how label of a control/indicator to appear to the right of the control in a block diagram. I'm doing a lot of routine copying and pasting of controls and indicators, and the labels always appear at the top of the controls/indicators. Thanks for the tip.

If you copy&paste a control, the label will jump back to the default location for the pasted control.
There is a better way! It makes copying a control faster and retains the label location:
select the control you want to copy
hold down the [ctrl] key and drag the terminal to a new place.
You will have a copy of the original control at the new location and the label position is the same.

ToggleButton label position

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a way to align the Label of a ToggleButton to the left of it.
My Toggle button is 100% wide, and the icon+label are centered in the button.
I can't find a way to make icon+Label aligned to the left.
I created a custom skin, but the Label keeps centered whatever I try...
Any tips ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Following steps will solve your problem:
1. set the label position as NO LABEL.
2. Add a control type of type 'Plain Text' in which you can write the description of the variable and place it before the input field and adjust the size as desired.
Hope this helps.

Speedometer Label position

Hi
We are using Speedometer in our corporate dashboards and we are trying to show the Speedometer label below the image.
Have tried to change the font by changing the stylesheet C:\ProgramFiles\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\PerformanceManagement\viz\controls\metricgauge\speedometer\speedo.css file but we are not able to change the position.Please let us know which elements to be added to change the position as the default label position is too wayward.
Any help is appreciated.

I need to set the position of components on a page that contains a MenuBar,

I need to set the position of components on a page that contains a MenuBar, but MenuBar does not provide a getPreferred size method.
How can I get the MenuBar's size in AWT?
Thanks.

A menubar is not a general component that is added to a frame like any another. It is the specific responsibility of the setMenuBar/setJMenuBar methods to deal with this.

Set file position within a for loop, error 1

Hi, I'm reading from a .sxm file consisting of a large chunk of text followed by binary data for 512x512 images with 4 bytes per pixel
I’ve managed to successfully identify the start of the binary and read the first image from the file and view it using "flatten pixmap.vi", so I’m doing something right, however when i try to read the next chunk of image data in the .sxm file using a for loop, set file position keeps churning out ERR (1).
im at a loss as to whats causing this
Solved!

}I've got an app that uses JMF to play MP3's, but using JMF just to play MP3's is overkill, but I've found a SPI from javaZoom now, so that's okay.
Anyway, I want to set the position of the line in microseconds now, as well as get the duration.
Can anyone help with this?
By the way, if anyone can open .rar files (lots of complainants about that) then the, in much need of an update, app is here: http://acquiesce.awardspace.co.uk/Projects/Download/Music_Exploder.rar
I you do want to try it, you do need the JMF.
Why not pop into the forum as well:

You know I need the comments.
Luke :D

okay, so u can do this in the Clip interface, but the Clip takes ages to open, at lest for mp3's.
I need it to open it right away
I understand a bit more now, the SourceDataLine plays each byte as it is writen which is why it plays it straight away, but the Clip loads it into memory, so therefore it knows how long, how many frames etc about the audio, but it means that it's not as fast as streaming.
I need the best of both worlds really, I've tried opening a Clip on another Thread as well as playing from a SourceDataLine, the idea was to have the Clip take over the playing once it has loaded, but the line doesn't play or read/write.
Is there someway to take advantage of both streaming an non-streaming in this way?
Or simply make the Clip.open_AudioImputStream) faster?
Thanks
Luke

Can't set label

In CS2 I used this line
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
set properties of every text frame whose label starts with "dude" to {label:"sweet"} of document 1
end tell
But in CS3 a strange error occurs
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
set properties of every text frame whose label starts with "dude" to {label:"sweet"} of document 1
end tell
Now the weird part is if you just look for page items or text frames that start with label "bla bla" it works perfect but you can't set the label to anything.

Nevermind this fixed it
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
tell document 1
set label of every text frame whose label starts with "dude" to "sweet"
end tell
end tell
Strange I had to dumb down the code for it to work. In CS2 it see the property approach always worked.

Business Graphics : Set label for a Simple Series

I need to set label to simple series of Business graphics object. Since the Label property is not bindable; i am looking for the alternative way to achieve this. (Any attempt to pass the context would give error msg: Method bindLabel( String) is undefined for the type IWDSimpleSeries)
I want to have a string value in each points in graph (Line Graph), not i legend.
tips will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Vinod V

Hi Vinod,
The label property for IWDPoint should solve your purpose.
IWDPoint API 'label' property - This property is used to specify an optional text to be displayed for a point in a business graphic.
