Table not updating while command button is held down

Hi guys,
My application obtains data and then outputs this into a table which updates after each set of data is read. This part works fine, however I also require the user to be able to hold down one of two buttons to control control the function of an actuator (forwards and rearwards). To explain this further, when one of these buttons are pressed a voltage is output, when released the voltage is reset to zero. However, while the button is held down the table does not continue to update, when the button is released the table then updates through all the queued values. I understand that this is most likely a problem with the holding of the button causing the other user interface events to not be processed. I have therefore tried using ProcessSystemEvents(), ProcessDrawEvents(), and experimented with using an async timer to control the updating of the UI through the use of PostDeferredCallback(), all without success.
If anyone can help with a solution that would allow me to perform both of these required functions simultaneously it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Ben
Solved!

Could you use a toggle button instead of a simple button to be hold down? If yes, then in the button callback you could simple test the value of the toggle (1 if pressed, 0 if released) and operate turn on/off the output voltage to the actuator. You'll have a commit event every time the operator changes button state. (you may need to apply some security limit switch or timeput on the control in case the user forgets to turn the toggle off: the situation is similar to a three-state switch that controls a motorized window blind).
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Modern LED Indicator gets not updated while mouse button is pressed

Colleagues,
Here pretty simple, but strange behavior in the following snippet:
When this VI is running, then all three indicators are blinking as expected.
Now click on Minimize Button (you can also click on Maximize or Close Button), but not release button immediately — just keep button pressed.
Classic and Silver indicators are OK, but Modern stops blinking and not updated any longer.
That was tested on Win7/LabVIEW 2013.
I believe, this is the problem between OS/LabVIEW and UI thread (on XP whole panel will be not updated).
Just curious - how it works under Win 8/8.1 and is any way exists to fix it other than replacing modern indicators with other type?
Regards and thanks in advance,
Andrey.

Just tried this with LV 2012 / Windows 7 and it acts the same.
Although strangely if you use the rectangular Modern LED it updates OK like the classic and silver LEDs !!??
What's the problem with the round modern LED ? Bizarre
Yes, there are many controls, some are updated and some - not.
Try attached one - this is funny (there are two Modern ring controls - on Win 7 one control is not updated, but both mostly the same).

VBSEC Table not updating while parking a doc

Hi all,
I am working on a program wherein I am using a FM which is a copy of the std FM PRELIMINARY_POSTING_FB01. When I am calling the FM ZPRELIMINARY_POSTING_FB01 I am passing the following tables to it t_bkpf, t_bseg,t_bsec,t_bset and t_bsez. Tables t_bkpf, T_bseg and t_bsec have values in it. Now when I called this FM in my program it parked the document correclty but it only updated tables VBKPF and VBSEG but didn't update the table VBSEC which has one time vendor information. I put a break point just right before I am calling the FM and all the three tables are filled with the correct data but when I checked table vbsec after parking it doesn't have any data. When I did the same using std TCode FV60 it updated table VBSEC as well.
This is how I have called the FM in my program:
CALL FUNCTION 'ZPRELIMINARY_POSTING_FB01'
    EXPORTING
       i_xcmpl =                         lv_i_xcmpl
       i_tcode =                         lv_i_tcode
       i_tcode_int =                     lv_i_tcode_int
    TABLES
       t_bkpf =                          lt_c_t_bkpf
       t_bseg =                          lt_c_t_bseg
       t_bsec =                          lt_c_t_bsec
       t_bset =                          lt_c_t_bset
       t_bsez =                          lt_c_t_bsez
Can you please tell me what might I be missing here?
Thnaks,
Rajat

Hi
Maybe put a breakpoint in the following code:
Include LF040F00:
    loop at yvbsec.
      loop at yvbseg where buzei eq yvbsec-buzei.
        if yvbseg-xcpdd ne 'X' and
           yvbseg-xzemp ne 'X'.
          delete yvbsec.
          exit.                                      "Note 430791
        else.
          upd_vbsec = char_u.
        endif.
      endloop.
    endloop.
        loop at yvbsec where buzei eq xvbsec-buzei.
          i = sy-tabix.
          if yvbsec ne xvbsec.
            upd_vbsec = char_u.
            xvbsec-kz = char_u.        "Update
          endif.
        endloop.
        if sy-subrc ne 0.
          upd_vbsec = char_u.
          xvbsec-kz = char_i.          "Insert
        endif.
These appear to be the points where the update flag for table BSEC is set.
Kind regards,
Robert

What are the tables will update while loading Master data ?

Hello Experts,
What are the tables will update while loading Master data ? And requesting you to provide more information about Master data loading and its related settings in the beginning of creation infoobjects.

It depends upon the type of Master data u r loading....
In all the master data loadings, for every new value of master data an SID will be created in the SID table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME> irrespective of the type of master data.
But the exceptional tables that get updated depending on the type of master data are.....
If it is a time Independent master data then the /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
If it is a time dependent master data then the /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
If the master data is of time Independent Navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/X<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
If the master data is of time dependent navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/Y<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
NOTE: As said above, For all the data in P, Q, T, X, Y tables the SID's will be created in the S table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME>
NOTE: Irrespective of the time dependency or Independency the VIEW /BI*/M<INFOOBJECT NAME> defined on the top of /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> & /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> tables gives the view of entire master data.
NOTE: it is just a View and it is not a Table. So it will not have any physical storage of data.
All the above tables are for ATTRIBUTES
But when it comes to TEXTS, irrespective of the Time dependency or Independency, the /BI*/T<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated (and of course the S table also).
Naming Convention: /BIC/*<InfoObject Name> or /BI0/*<InfoObject Name>
C = Customer Defined Characteristic
0 = Standard or SAP defined Characteristic
* = P, Q, T, X,Y, S (depending on the above said conditions)
Thanks & regards

Vertical slider position not updated while displaying .pdfs with Adobe Reader X

When a .pdf file is opened inside Firefox 4 (beta/RC1), the vertical slider position does not update while scrolling through the document until the mouse cursor is moved to the slider bar (then the slider immediately jumps to the right place).
I am using Adobe Reader X.

Here is a URL that will not save in Reader X:
http://samplepdf.com/sample.pdf?meaningless=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456 789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456 789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456 7890/&blah=blah.pdf
However, if the last slash is removed or encoded as %2f (which should not be necessary, as it appears in the query portion of the URL), there is no problem.

Database table not updating

Hi all,
I am updating the database table with following syntex, but table not updating.
MODIFY ZTEST_BAR FROM TABLE I_ZTESTBAR.
Please help.
PKB

Hi,
firstly you can define internal table and work area as below:-
internal tables
DATA : I_ZTESTBAR TYPE TABLE OF ZTEST_BAR.
work areas
DATA : I_ZTESTBAR_LINE LIKE LINE OF I_ZTESTBAR .
here internal table having the same structure as that of ztable which include MANDT.
Then to update field, you can use add following code:-
*Update Ztable
INSERT INTO ZTEST_BAR VALUES I_ZTESTBAR_LINE.
COMMIT WORK.
Hope this works for you.
Thanks..........

Now that I upgraded to Maverick on my Mac air, I can not use the power button to shut down the computer anymore. any suggestions?

Now that I upgraded to Maverick on my Mac air, I can not use the power button to shut down the computer anymore. I now have to go to the apple icon in the upper left corner. Any short cuts instead of going to the apple in the top left corner and hitting shut down. Doing that all the time, I feel like I am back at work using a "Windows" computer.

This a is tricky one, but you can still do it. Instead of pressing the power button, hold it down for a few seconds and then you'll see the shut down options dialog pop up.
I guess they were trying to prevent accidental touching of that button. They did something similar with the Eject button a few versions ago, where you have to hold down Eject instead of just tapping it so that you don't pop out a CD by mistake.

Hi Goofy Goat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

Picked Quantity not updated while using FM in background

Hi All,
We have a requirement to update the picking quantity in a delivery order (VL02N) through a custom screen.
Inorder to do the above operation we are using the Function Module SD_DELIVERY_UPDATE_PICKING_1. We find a strange behaviour while using this FM.
The FM updates the picking quantity when executed online, but when called in the program (By passing exactly the same parameters) it does not update the picking quantity even after using a COMMIT WORK command after the function module. While debugging it was found that the XLIPS intl. table and LIPS structure was not being populated when the FM was executed through a function call in program.
We tried using the WS_DELIVERY_UPDATE, but even this FM behaves in the
same way.
Please let us know as to how to over come this issue.
regards,
Sandeep

Hi Babul,
Thanks for your reply. I actually tried using even the above mentioned FM. But I am faced with the same error. The problem is that in one of the includes LV50LF01 (Subroutine READ_DELIVERY) of the FM, the internal table XLIPS gets refreshed. This happens only when the FM is called in our program.

Sandeep
