Tab Control/Display Data

Hello All,
I have an issue with displaying large amounts of data. What my program does is calculate INL/DNL errors on analog to digital converters, when the program runs it generates 3 graphs and a couple of numbers. The idea is to be able to run the program a couple of times and be able to compare data from run to run. My idea was to use the property nodes of a "TAB CONTROL" and create a new tab each run through and store the new graphs and data there. Is this possible? I have not yet figured out how to do so. If anyone has a solution to this or advice on how best arrange such items so they can be easily accessed I'm open for suggestions. Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Kenneth Miller

OK, I spend a few minutes to wire up an example showing my idea above (LabVIEW 7.1). It can be easily adapted for more complex problems such as yours. (E.g. add timestamps, add events for printing, saving, etc. ...)
I think it is a better solution than layers of tabs. Enjoy!

Displaying data in different tabs

Hi all
In a webI report I want to display data in different tabs for different prompt values.
For ex: In the prompt window if enter one value for plant say ABC... data should display in a single tab
If I enter two values say ABC, DEF... data should display for two plants in two different tabs. one tab for ABC and another tab DEF.
Any inputs please and is this possible in webI?

Hi there. No, it isn't.
The underlying query is shared among all tabs (which are, annoyingly, technically called 'reports').
Since any prompts are defined in the query, they too are shared among all tabs.
Input controls, 'standard report filters', and 'simple report filters' are specific to individual tabs, and cannot affect other tabs, but won't 'pop up'.
You may want to look into hyperlinking between reports (read up on OpenDocument if you're not familiar with it) to allow users to move from one Webi report (technically called a 'document') to another.
This will allow you to have different prompts for different reports.

Displaying child clusters in a tab control

I have a data structure comprising of 2 clusters, each cluster has 4 sub clusters. I also have 2 tab controls, one for each parent cluster. I want to display the contents of each sub cluster on its own tab page.
My thoughts so far have gone towards placing a cluster in each tab page and copying or linking each sub cluster into them, but this seems very inefficient. If anybody has a suggestion on how best to approach this, I would appreciate it.
Ed
- Cheers, Ed

I believe I want something like this. My sub clusters are displayed on their own tabs, and in the block diagram they have been made members of the parent clusters for ease of sending them to sub VIs.
The updating of the display clusters seems slightly long winded, and given this application is going to be fairly large I'm sure there must be a better way of implementing this. If anybody has some ideas or suggestions I would be grateful.
cheers, Ed

Display data in bold and red in color in side a table control cell

Hi,
I need to display data in side a Table Control cell with Bold and Red in color, can any body help me how to do it.

Srinivas

The gui does not support the coloring in table controls. You can set the hightlight attribute, but this will only make the text blue in color. There is no way to make it any other color.

Data Origin Types not filled in the tab "Control Data" of BP interface

Hello experts,
I have loaded the clients from ECC6.0 to CRM 4.0.
Before I have loaded the clients I have maintained the data origin type for the BP in spro -> cross application components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business partner -> Basic settings -> Data Origin -> Maintain Data Origin Type.
After I have done the load initial of clients, the field "Data Origin" is empty in the tab "Control Data" in BP interface. If I do F4 in the field appear the configuration that I did in spro appear.
For this field will appear filled I'll need to do more configurations in spro?
Best regards,
Mary

Hi Mary,
The middleware does not fill this field in BP master data. You can maintain data origin type in SPRO, however the mBdoc does not use this customizing in order to fill this field.
Please try to use the BADI CRM_DATAEXCHG_BADI in order to fill this field during master data download.
It hope it helps.

How to upload tab-control data through LSMW.....

Hi,
I have to upload the data using the LSMW ....in their i have tab-control...how i have to upload the data of tab-control through LSMW....
Reply me early..if u have any idea...
Phani

Hi Phani,
LSMW will have a Indicator for headr and itam, i do not remember the correct field, but it will have an indicator, check the fields, there will be a single charecter lenght field, that should be the indicator, and using that we can write the logic.
check that single charecter field, it that is X that means the header record is processed, and do the items.
and, this is another way, try this out also
YOu can do this in "Define Source Structures" step,
the HEADER is defined first,
then the DETAIL below the HEADER.
add the fields to the structures.
Both should have some common key field
Please take care that the name of the common field is the same.
Once you do this it is linked. The you have a header and item corresponding to that header. then run the LSMW as you would.
let me know if any issues.
Thanks

Displaying Date types in the grid control

I have a grid control and one of the column is displaying
'Date' type data. I am able to see the Date values in the grid, if
I define the return type of the getter function as String format.
But the problem with this is, when I click on the Date column
header, the grid is sorting the rows while treating the Date values
as String values. And when I change the return type of the getter
method as Date type (java.util.Date), I don't see any Date values
in the grid. Do I need to do any additional coding to display the
date values as Date types to display the data and then to be able
to sort the grid on Date types.
Please help.

You should return Date values to the Flex application and
store them in the dataProvider associated with that DataGrid. For
Date-values you have a couple of choices:
1. Actually store the time (a long Number - milliseconds
since Jan 1970) and use a labelFunction on the column to format
that values as a Date. This way sorting will treat the value as a
number, but it will appear as a Date.
2. Write your own Sort compare method for that column. Check
the docs on Sort and SortField.

Displaying an Incorrect page in a tab control

I'm coming across a weird issue for the first time. I've got a typedef tab control, and when I open the VI, the contents of the first page are displayed in the control, even though the first page is not the active tab. I've attached an example VI. When test tab.vi is opened, you'll notice the String page is active, but the Boolean control is visible. This persists even when the VI is run. Switching pages makes the correct controls display. This only seems to happen when the tab control is a typedef, but I haven't done any thorough testing.
I've observed this on 8.20, which is the most recent version I have installed. I looked for, but didn't find, this issue in the 8.5 or 8.6 bug fix lists. Can anyone confirm that this is happening or let me know if it does not persist in more recent versions?

However, once I operate the tab, go back to the string tab, make current values default, and save, things are OK next time I open it.
It is also good in 8.2.1 once I do the same.

Tab control shows wrong display for selected tab

My computer crashed when I tried to post this earlier, so I apologize if the first post actually shows up.
I have seen this for years so it is nothing new, but I don't remember seeing it in any release notes (sorry if I missed it).
Upon loading the .vi (or as an executable), the .vi shows the wrong page for the selected tab. After selecting a different tab, the control works fine. Also, if you create a property node to read the tab value, it matches the displayed page....just the selected tab seems to be incorrect.
A work around is to select the default tab before saving the .vi, but why is this happening in the first place?

Hi Stephen,
The erroneous tab display is something I see on most of not all of my code that uses a tab control (each is a typedef).
What change would I make the the typedef? If I disconnect the tab from the typedef then I will loose the advantages of using the typederf...I will stick with the workaround like I have for the past 3+ years.
Isn't this a LabVIEW bug since the displayed tab is not equal to the value read from the control? I have not tried it on this example I posted but in the past, writing to the control does not fix the displayed tab (writing the control may not work since I wrote the same value that LabVIEW thinks is the current value, but the displayed!=actual).
Thanks,
Todd

Error in table control while displaying data.

Hi All,
I m doing module pool programming using Table control.
I m using one table only and declared internal table like the database table.
When I m transferring data from internal table to Table control screen, I m getting error like.
<b>A conversion error occurred while the program was trying to
display data on the screen.</b>
The filed is of DEC type and it is having some value with negative sign.
Whether I have to change field type of sceen element and if so then to which data type?
Or any other way to handle such situation.
Thanx.
Umesh.

Hello,
Please check whether the screen field name of the table control and the type
is same as the internal table that you are using to populate.
reward if helps
Thanks

Tab control Output value to be display in other pages

Hi guys
I hava a VI using a tab control with multiple pages. The 1st page will have some calculation and give an ouput ,x.
Then i will proceed to the 2nd page to perform other action, however i need the input automatically from what i have acquired in the first page, which is x.
My problem is that i could not link up this output from the 1st page and send it to the 2nd page.
I thought it should be a reliatively simple but i am stuck in this. Please help me
Cheers
PX

Hi pengxin,
do you mean, you want to see x on all pages? If yes, then don't palce x inside the tabcontrol. Just add it to the front panel and move it with the arrow keys over the tab control.

Pass data between Tab Control Pages

I’d like to initiate a serial VISA session in the first page of a Tab Control to use the VISA Serial Configure.VI outputs (Visa resource name and Error cluster) in other pages or outside the tab control.
So, how can I pass those references outside the page? I used local variables, but it doesn't seem the best way to do this because I need to create several variables to capture the reference in each page of the tab control...
I created a sub-VI to initialize the VISA session, but in this case it always starts a new session every time I use the sub-VI….
Thanks in advance!

There's no reason at all to wire the tab control to a case statement. Since you have the read and write Booleans and they can't be clicked until the user changes tab pages, no code for the tab is necessary.With the Booleans for write and read, you should just have an event structure for those. You could initialize the serial port outside the main while loop and just pass the resource name in. Of course, if you wanted a tab for the init funciton, you could do that to but put a Boolean on that page to execute it. The only time you need to wire the tab control to a case statement is if you want to run some code immediately when the page is clicked.

Display Date format problem - 'dd/mm/yyyy'

Hi All,
I want to display the date in this format dd/mm/yyyy. Below is the code which i declared in the JSPX.
<af:selectInputDate value="#{bindings.poRequestedDateH.inputValue}" id="poRequestedDateH" required="true"
binding="#{backing_POMasterDetail.poRequestedDateH}"
validator="#{backing_POMasterDetail.assignedDateValidator}">
<af:validator binding="#{bindings.poRequestedDateH.validator}"/>
<af:convertDateTime pattern='dd/mm/yyyy'/>
</af:selectInputDate>
but when i select the date from the component its displaying like this .
For Example : "09/47/2008", if i reload the page again and selecting the date its displaying some junk values in month column.
Please anyone help me to fix the problem.
Thanks & Regards
Vimalan Balan

Hi Vimalan,
I just replied to the comment you posted on my blog:
"How To Specify a Second Date Pattern in ConvertDateTime"
http://blogs.oracle.com/Didier/2007/02/01#a213
Your pattern is incorrect.
In 'dd/mm/yyyy', 'mm' represents the minutes, not the months, represented by 'MM'.
You can check it with the following pattern: "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss" that will display the months and the minutes:
f.ex. "16/04/2008 16:47:08"
So just change your pattern to "dd/MM/yyyy" and it will work.
Please note that my blog was about adding a second pattern to convertDateTime.
If your aim is to use one (and only one) pattern "dd/MM/yyyy", I would specify it at the ADF Business Components level, in the "Control Hints" tab of the date attribute, in "Format".
Regards,
Didier.

How to display Date Calendar in Oracle BI Answers Prompts (parameter)

I'm still new to OBIEE.
How to display Date Calendar in Oracle BI Answers Prompts (parameter)?
Thanks.

Hi,
While creating Dash Board prompt choose the control to 'Calendar'.
I think it is not possible to provide 'Calendar' control using Prompts tab while creating request.
It is possible to write Java Script for a Column of data type 'char'. So, cast the date data type to char.
Go to: Column Properties --> Data Format
Choose override default data format to view the available options in the drop down list.
I would be very happy if anybody acknowledge me that I am wrong.

It seems that data is not interlinked while switching betweeen the cases.
I have to select the start buttun for each tab to get results.And also if I skip the second tab and jump to third tab, it doesnot give results. SOmehow the data is not acquired.
Can anyone help me out for the same.
Attached is the main VI (PAR_LAB_ATT_00_01)followed by a sub VI(gen time array)

Please don't use all CAPS when posting your message subject.
How are you running your VI? I don't see any while loop in it, so it only runs once. Which means only the case structure associated with the tab that is currently highlighted before you press the run button will actually run.
The vast majority of the time, a tab control is only used to control what is displayed in the front panel and is not used to actually control the execution order of the program.
