How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures?

How to drag and drop a picture at run time in a window displaying pictures on the front panel. The main thing is that the window is displaying frames continuously?

vivman,
So from your description you have a picture control where you've already created an image and you'd like to drag an image around inside of the picture control. This can be done although it is going to take a significant amount of research and programming on your behalf. You can use the drag event in the event handler to find out when the drag occurs and where the cursor is. Then edit the picture as you move your mouse so that when you drop the picture gets updated.
The even structure is a somewhat advanced topic and the drag and drop feature is one of the more advanced uses of this structure. I would search the example finder (help>>find examples) for "event" and "drag" to see how to use these events. Also you'll want to look at the examples for the picture control.
Sounds like a cool project! Check out Darren's Weekly Nugget 10/30/2006 this topic (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=212920). It might prove useful.

Data type determined at run time, how to provide the input type in advance

Hi all,
Here I have a requirement:
on my UI, there is an inputfield which receives user's input. But the data type can't be known at design time.
But I need to bind a context attribute to the inputfield first at design time, which data type should I use( the inputfield can recevie
data of any type ) ?
and how to convert the this data type into different data type( can be any type )?

Hello Aaron,
There can be a workaround for your requirement.
you can assign a char data type to that field since Char can accept all characters, numbers, special symbols.
But, you need to do validations later on the see if it is a number or all alphabets and accordingly you can assign that field to any data type by doing little bit of manipulations.
Hope this helps.

Anand

Regarding the display of adapter types in under run time work bench

hi all.
here in our company we had installed xi newly.
sap-xi server pi 7.0 .
but after one month sapag has done some changes in xi server.
and now when we are running xi server the runtime workbench is not showing list of adapters under adapter type and there were no new messages that we had sent newly in sxmb_moni.
so what are the changes that we have to done to make all correctly.
waiting for your response.

How can I load a picture and use it in ActiveX in run time ??

I am using an ActiveX object which needs a property "picture" as input.
I can set the picture property in its property page in design time, but I don't know how to give it a "picture" in run time.
In VB, I can do:
dim pic As Picture
pic = loadpicture("c:\test.bmp")
control_1.picture = pic
(("control_1" is the ActiveX object, and picture is the property))
How can I do the same with labview?
Is there any example that sets the picture property of an ActiveX in run time?

As
far as I understand from the MSDN site, it seems that the Picture
datatype is a specific VB only datatype. Most probably it is a handle
(uInt32) value as far as other programs including LabVIEW are
concerned, but there is no way that LabVIEW could deal with this
datatype directly.
If you can convert this datatype with some VB fucntions into a HBITMAP
or HDIB then you could call some Win32 API functions to extract the
relevant bitmap data from this common Win32 datatype and get somewhere
from there. OR it maybe that VB itself has other functions to extract
the bitmap data, color palette and other attributes of the Picture
datatype. Don't expect LabVIEW to be able to deal with the Picture
datatype directly though, this is really a proprietary VB thing.

How To... Change the Data Type for a SELECT-OPTIONS at run time.

Hello,
I am trying to restrict the values available for entry into a SELECT-OPTIONS at run time depending on user input.
The logic is as follows. The user has two input fields. A PARAMETER field which has the type RSDIOBJNM and allows them to choose an InfoObject. And the user has a SELECT-OPTIONS field to allow them to select the Characteristic values for that InfoObject.
I would like the following example to be possible:
The user enters 0MATERIAL into the PARAMETER. When the user clicks on the SELECT-OPTIONS control code will derive a list of possible options the user can enter in the SELECT-OPTIONS. In this case only values found in the master data or at least no values greater than 18 characters.
I have looked at the following function module SELECT_OPTIONS_RESTRICT and this do not appear to be helpful as they only restrict on the signs allowed for the values (unless I misunderstand, it is a complex function module!).
The code I have so far is (thus the user enters a InfoObject into p_char1 and the select options so_char1 should only accept active values of that InfoObject):
declaration of variables for user interface
DATA c_char(32) TYPE c.
declaration of count variable
DATA i_count TYPE i.
declaration of user interface
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK a1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
    PARAMETERS: p_ipack TYPE RSLOGDPID.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK a1.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-002.
    PARAMETERS: p_char1 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
    SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char1 for c_char NO INTERVALS.
    PARAMETERS: p_char2 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
    SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char2 for c_char NO INTERVALS.
    PARAMETERS: p_char3 TYPE RSDIOBJNM.
    SELECT-OPTIONS: so_char3 for c_char NO INTERVALS.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.
Is what I am trying to do possible???
Thanks for any help. Ross.

You really want to restrict possible values of a select-option based on another field, not change the length of type of the select-option field, right?
Here is what you do: Code a custom F4 value help for the select-option at event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE REQUEST FOR.. The first thing you do here is read the value of the parameter field (p_ipack in your example). You can use function module DYNP_VALUES_READ. Based on this value, you can propose values for the select-option fields. Note that the use can still enter whatever s(he) wishes in to the select-option field without pressing F4. In this case, you will have to code some input validations taking into account the value in the p_ipack field.

How to determine itab type at run time

I need to write a subroutine that organizes data in internal tables for presentation by a smartform. There are a few similarly structured internal tables all with the same field name ("recipe_type") by which the data is sorted. My problem is that how I can determine the type of the itab inside my subroutine at run time? Is it ever possible in ABAP?
The subroutine code is attached below. Thanks for any help.

The following code does what I want, but only if the input itab structure is declared first in the program. It won't work if the itab is declared as itab_in TYPE TABLE OF sflight. This is because the function 'GET_COMPONENTS_LIST' only can load the structure of a field declared explicitly in the program. Does anybody know of any method to load the structure of an itab based off a dtab?
Thanks you guys for answers. Points have been rewarded.

How to change at run-time the type of a step?

Hi,
How topic title, i need to know how change at run-time the type of a step. I have, i my sub-sequence, a step whose type must change at run-time based upon the occurrence of a condition. How can do it?
Thanks.

I need to do this: At verify of a condition, one specific step at the end of sequence must change from statement to numeric limit test and viceversa.
However, is right to no writing self-modifyinf sequence unless handle rece condition on step that i want change at run-time.
Moreover i ask myself: If for change the type of a step i need first delete the substep and later create a new one relative to the step that I want, then it is better and make more sense to create dynamically the step that i would like to have depending on the condition that occurs, right?
Thanks

Copy picture of graph to clipboard through run-time shortcut menu

Hi,
I have following problem. I would like to copy picture of graph to clipboard through graph “run-time shortcut menu”. It’s easy when I want copy exactly what I see. There is an Item Tag: APP_SC_COPY_DATA. That works nice. Try an example1.vi. (Run then right click on the graph...)
But problem is when I want to change the graph appearance before copying (only change the colour of the graph to be more printer-friendly). I have created a subVi with copy of the graph with changed colour. But how to simulate for the graph inside the subVi same runtime shortcut event? How to call APP_SC_COPY_DATA of subVi graph from outside Vi?
I hope I’ve explain it clear.
If you have better method for clipboard copying tell me.

Run-time error '13': Type mismatch

There are A and B excel files.
And two different POV-dimension in two excel files
VBA code below:
Dim vtGrid As Variant
Dim vtDimNames As Variant
Dim vtPOVNames As Variant
x = HypRetrieve("sheet1")
x = HypUseLinkMacro(True)
Range("b10").Select
x = HypGetSourceGrid("sheet1", vtGrid)
ref = HypMenuVRefresh()
x = HypGetPOVItems(vtDimNames, vtPOVNames)
MsgBox (vtPOVNames(6))
Range("a3").Value = "date: " & vtPOVNames(6) & " - " & vtPOVNames(3)
Range("a4").Value = "dep : " & vtPOVNames(0)
There is not any attribute dimension in pov A excel file.
There is one attribute dimension in pov B excel file.
The same VBA code excute is normal in A excel file.
But the same VBA code excute is "run-time error '13': Type mismatch " in B excel file.
The error '13' in the row of MsgBox (vtPOVNames(6)).
Is attribute dimension in pov cause this question?
And how did I solve this question?

Based on where the error is occurring, it looks like the value returned by vtPOVNames(6) is not defaulting to a string datatype for the msgbox.
Try 'cstr(vtPOVNames(6))' to force conversion of the value into a string. Also, you may want to test for nulls using IsNull() and empty variant values using IsEmpty().
It doesn't look like the code you posted shows vtPOVNames being populated. If you're populating the names yourself, you could always use a string array instead of a variant array. Just dim the string array using a statement such as, "Dim strPOVNames(6) as String" or "Dim strPOVNames() as String" in case you need to ReDim the array later to size it for a non-fixed set of POV names.
Hope this helps.

You can do that with the picture indicator. I have written a slide show program in LV and it works quite smoothly. If you start to see delays, it is probably due to file read time rather than the display. Read one or two files from disk ahead of when you will want to display them. Updating the display from memory should be fast.
