Turn off screen updating while a DIAdem script is executing.

Hello,
Does anyone know what line or lines I would add to a DIAdem script to prevent the screen from updating as the script runs? I have tried UIAutoRefreshSet and the similar commands I found in the help file, but my screen still flickers and flashes while the code is running. Can someone please help me?
I am changing marker styles (removing and adding markers to all curves in a VIEW sheet) using DIAdem 11, if that helps.
Thanks for the help.

Hi Internati...
Well, the other thing I would try is to use the View object property:
View.AutoRefresh = FALSE
(your code here)
View.AutoRefresh = TRUE
But you might also want to check and make sure that you don't have any VIEW events registered:
View.Events.OnActiveSheetChanged = ""
View.Events.OnCursorChanged = ""

How to turn off screen redraw while running scripts?

I am sure this would be the number one question on the FAQ for Photoshop scripting, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere. I know it may be possible because this is something you can do in InDesign. Any ideas? Obviously I want to make Photoshop process the files faster.

If it’s just about your machine setting the Playback Options in the Actions Panel to Accelerated might suffice.
Moreover xbytor’s stdlib contains code to include this in a Script.

Reinstall OS X:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Turn off screen while using Drive

Hi,
How can I turn off screen, to save battery, while using Drive? When I press power button, screen turns off, but I lose voice navigation.

Hi karlo1020lumia,
Welcome to the forum!
What is the model of your device? If you're referring to the Nokia Drive application, this is a normal behavior. The screen must be active for the application to work properly. If your concern is about the phone's battery, you can check this link for the tips on how to prolong the battery life of the device:

My iPhone 5 keeps turning off and on while charging

I am trying to restore my iPhone 5, but it keeps turning off and on. It also turns off and on while charging. Is there anyway I can fix this? I did update it to the newest iOS.

Hi terikins!
Here is an article that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

Can I turn off my display while syncing?

I have an old laptop with usb 1.1 ports. Obviously syncing is extremely slow. If I want to load 12 GB worth of songs it can take hours. Does it harm or wear out the display or do I risk burning the image of the 'Sync in Progress' screen onto my display permanently if it takes eight hours to load that much data? Is there any way to turn off the display while syncing? Thanks

No, you cannot turn it off.

The iOs 5.1 is a huge file that needs to be dowloaded when updating/restoring, your phone hasnt completed the update so its now in recovery mode. Look on the left of itunes, it should say downloads under the store section with a spinning wheel, click that and youll see the update file with a time remaining, wait for that download to finish then try the restore again and it should work

Installed itunes on another computer and need to turn off automatic update

I have itunes on my desktop at home and it is set to manually update my songs on my ipod (I have more songs on my 80GB ipod video than on my desktop). I am now traveling with a laptop and just installed itunes on my laptop. itunes won't let you turn off the automatic update setting until you plug your ipod into your computer. I am afraid to plug my laptop into my computer because it will automatically update the music (wipe out all my music on my ipod). Can I somehow turn off automatic update (switch to manual) before I plug my ipod into my laptop? Also, I know there is software that allows you to move the music from the ipod to the laptop, but I don't want to move all that music to the laptop. I want to continue updating my ipod manually on my laptop. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you set the iPod to be manually managed on one computer, that setting will follow the iPod to any other computer you connect it to. However, even if you don't have the iPod set that way, when you connect the iPod to a foreign library, you'll receive an message in iTunes when it recognizes the iPod that the iPod is synced with another library, and you can click 'Cancel' and still get to the iPod's Summary page to put it into manual mode, without it changing any content on the iPod. If it makes you feel better, you can also click Edit and go to Preferences, click the Syncing tab, and select the option to "Disable automatic syncing for iPods & iPhones" prior to connecting your iPod.
Hope this is helpful

I want to turn off auto updating on my Mac 10.4.11 How do I do this?

# Question
I want to turn off auto updating on my Mac 10.4.11 How do I do this?
When firefox tries to upgrade (without asking) it tends to upset my Mac's usual functioning.

You can go into Edit, then Preferences, then Advanced, then update, and set your update settings there.
Also, FYI, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-mac-os-x-104-or-powerpc-pr https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-mac-os-x-104-or-powerpc-pr]

How do I turn off automatic updates in Adobe Reader 9.3.0?

I don't see any way to turn off automatic updates in this version.

You can use the menu option 'Edit => Preferences => Updater' to adjust how updates are handled. If you have a corporate install, you might not have this option available and then you would need to talk to your System Administrator. If you turn it off, then you will need to manually check for updates since there are always updates to Acrobat/Reader that are needed to block new security threats.

How to turn off screen on Macbook Air when connected to Led monitor screen?

The only way you can turn it off is to close the lid - so you would need an external wired or wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad attached.

Turn-Off screen keeps coming up - maybe broken sleep button?

hey there,
i got my 3gs on saturday (t-mobile, germany) and it worked great for exactly one day. on sunday i noticed that the phone woke up from time to time showing the turn off screen, which usually appears if you hold down the sleep button for some seconds (red slider at the top).
after that, the same screen popped up more often, it even interrupts other actions by appearing on top of applications like phone or mail.
sometimes the phone will make a screenshot of the current screen if i push the home button, so it seems like the sleep key is stuck.
the phone has no visible damages, the button looks normal and doesn't act jammed.
all this happens unpredictably so i can't reproduce it, but its happens pretty often by now and is anoying as ****
i tried restarting the phone, resetting the prefs, resetting everything, restoring in via itunes etc.
guess is have to send it back, i just wanted to ask for more ideas and leave a mark for other affected users.
regards
jan

Bad news. I got my 3GS Saturday (6/27) at the local Apple Store. By Sunday morning, I noticed the "random" power off slider. Sometimes, the sleep switch works, sometimes it doesn't. It's gotten progressively worse...after less than 72 hours of ownership. I have a case open with Apple and a Genius appointment in 2 days. In the meantime, I suggest you DO NOT power off your phone. Apple had me do a reset (for the 4th time) and the phone would power down DURING the boot. After 10 minutes..and pressing NOTHING, it suddenly started up and ran. The sleep switch is virtually dead. The Apple rep mentioned something about "cracked circuit boards", but did not elaborate. I suspect something in the assembly process is trashing the board the switch is attached to.

Turn off automatic update of Firefox on Gnome 3, Fedora 15

On Fedora 15, using Gnome 3, I am unable to turn off automatic updates for Firefox, I am only able to turn off auto updates for Add-ons and Search Engines.

Possibly you have obtained a modified version of Firefox. Preferences, chrome, js or whatever may have been modified.
If work requires you to develop on certain versions, and you are doing some of that on this computer, why not install multiple copies of Firefox, including the required versions. I trust the required versions will be the currently supported versions; at the moment that is 3.6, 6, 7, 8 or 9
You should ensure you use multiple profiles so each has a unique profile.
For the current problematic firefox 6 do a clean install, deleting the original program files, but not the profile files. (or possibly an additional install in a custom location with a new profile - allowing you to retain the current firefox 6, and a standard firefox 6) Profiles may be cloned/copied if required, bookmark libraries may be accessed from other versions/profiles if necessary, and multiple versions can be run concurrently. ( I talk from a Windows perspective, but it is unlikely Linux is going to differ)
