"use default range" gray for gauge/knob

Hi there - the "use default range" checkbox is gray in the gauge/knob properties in my VI. How do I change this? I am trying to implement a compass sort of thing that displays a heading that is coming in as a value from 0-360. (0 = N, 90 = E, 180 = S, 270=W). I want to change how many ticks there are, and where numbers are displayed. My understanding was that I would need to change the data range, but I can't seem to figure out how to.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Is it possible to choose how large tick marks are? I don't think there is a good way to specify variable tick lenght. Maybe I am wrong.
how do I add text labels to specific points (ie N, NW, etc.). While you can use text labels for scales, the scale becomes noncontinuous and you cannot point to intermediary values. This might not be useful. I would simply not display the marker values, but add free labels as needed.
how do I get rid of the numbers being displayed? Choose a scale style without numbers.
I don't actually want numbers to be displayed - I only want to have text direction labels and ticks. Attached is a quick modification, implementing some of the above.
For even more control (pun!), you could use the control editor.

  • Default range size for iterator binding

    I noticed that the default range size for an iterator binding is 10. Is there a way to have no default? Right now I have to change it programatically by setting it to the value returned from the getEstimatedRowCount() method.

    I assume you are looking for a way to set the default range size at design time? Currently, there is no way to do this, but if you are looking for another solution at runtime, you can use
    getBindingContainer().findIteratorBinding(<IteratorName>).setRangeSize(num)
    for the component you are using the iterator in. For example, in a data page, this would mean overriding the DataPage base class.
    Hope this helps,

    CM SDK 9.0.4 (released very shortly) includes the "Web Starter Application". This is a J2EE Web Application with full MVC architecture and completely open source!
    You may be able to obtain this application sooner from Oracle Consulting - it will work on the current CM SDK 9.0.3.
    JSP and Tag Libraries make up the UI. The controller framework is similar to Jakarta Struts. It offers localization support, ADA compliance etc.
    You can easily develop the application from JDeveloper and deploy to 9iAS.

  • HT4145 How can I use an Airport Extreme to act as a Range Extender for an Alcatel One Touch Y800Z WiFi modem/router? I get a message saying it cannot be extended. Thank you. Arup

    How can I use an Airport Extreme to act as a Range Extender for an Alcatel One Touch Y800Z WiFi modem/router? As we live in a rural area and our landline broadband speeds are awful, I have moved on to a 3G provider in the UK (EE/Orange) and set up the wireless modem which is working very well with an iMac. I have an Airport Extreme base station which was previously connected with an Ethernet cable to the landline router, and two Airport Express stations as Range Extenders. I would now like to use the Airport Extreme and the two Express stations to extend the range of the Alcatel WiFi device. I have tried automatic and manual set up with the Airport Utility but at the crucial step for selecting a network to extend, although the WiFi device is recognised, I get a message saying it cannot be extended.
    Thank you for any help you can provide.
    Arup

    This is a problem with a lot of cheap end wifi hotspot like devices.. sometimes you can just swap the sim out to a real 3G wireless router.. that is a better approach IMHO than wireless repeater ever will be.
    In the meantime..
    Have a go with the suggestion.. place the express as wireless bridge. With a computer connected to the wifi from alcatel unit.. (I am amazed Alcatel still are in domestic market.. I thought they sold out). Set the express to join the wifi.. you do this in the airport utility.. old one is easy.. but in v6 you have to trust to luck so to speak and hope the auto setup works.. tell us if you have trouble.
    With the Express bridging.. you can then plug it by ethernet into the TC.. which will be in router bridge..
    ie
    You can then run the connection from wireless or ethernet on the TC.. and it will relay back to the alcatel for internet.. all a bit dodgy but who knows.. it may give you what you need.
    Wireless repeater is never particularly reliable in my experience. I would avoid it if possible.

  • I currently use a Time Capsule for my wi fi. I would like to extend its range and have been looking at boosters. Is Airport Express the best booster solution when using the Time Capsule or is there a better solution?

    I currently use a Time Capsule for my wi-fi (2008). I would like to extend its range. While there are many boosters that can do the job, what is the best option? How is Airport Express as an option?

    The Time Capsule (TC) can have its wireless network extended by another TC, an 802.1n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), or 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn).
    If your TC is a simultaneous dual-band version, only another TC or AEBSn will be able to extend both radios. The AXn can only support one radio (2.4 or 5 GHz) at a time.

  • Very simple question, how do you configure windows 8.1 to use a SF card as the default install location for software applications?

  • How to use different default parameter value for different report subscriptions

    In ssrs is it possible to define different default parameter values for different subscriptions? In the following example I have a report which has two subscriptions with different start date and end date values:
    Report name – Testsubscription.rdl
    Subscription-1
    Input parameter (default values):
    start_date = first day of current Month
    end_date = till date
    Subscription-2
    Input parameter (default values):
    start_date = first day of current Quarter
    end_date = till date
    I know an alternative way of doing this would be to copy the rdl file with a different name but I am curious whether this can be done within a single report definition file. I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition.
    Thanks!
    spp

    Hi sppdba,
    As per my understanding, there is a report with two parameter: start_date and end_date, you want to configure subscription for the report, and set different default values for start date and end date. And you want to know if it is possible to achieve you
    goal by using a single report definition file.
    Since you are using SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard Edition, we need to achieve your goal by configuring two subscriptions for the report. For detail information, please refer to the following steps:
      1. In design surface, right click start_date and open Parameter Properties dialog box.
      2. In General pane, type Name and Prompt, set Data Type to Date/Time.
      3. Click Available Values in left pane, select Specify Values.
      4. Click Add button, in Label text box, type “First day of Current Month”, click (fx) button in Value section, then type the expression like below:
    =DateSerial(Year(Now()), Month(Now()), 1)
      5. Click Add button, in Label text box, type “First day of Current Quarter”, click (fx) button in Value section, then type the expression like below, then click OK.
    =DateSerial(Year(Now()), (3*DatePart("q",Now()))-2, 1)
      6. Right click end_date and open Parameter Properties dialog box.
      7. In Available Values pane, select Specify Values.
      8. Click Add button, in Label text box, type “Today”, click (fx) button in Value section, then type the expression =Today(), then click OK.
    Now that the parameters are created, we need to configure subscription for the report. For detail information, please follow these steps:
      1. Open Report Manager, and locate the report for which you want to create a new subscription.
      2. Hover over the report, and click the drop-down arrow.
      3. In the drop-down menu, click Manage. This opens the General properties page for the report.
      4. Select the Subscriptions tab, and then click New Subscription.
      5. Select the delivery extension and data source for the subscription.
      6. Select a method of delivery, then choose report delivery options.
      7. Specify conditions that cause the subscription to process and delivery to occur.
      8. Set start_date to First day of Current Month, end_date to Today, then click OK.
      9. Create a new subscription as step4 to 7, set start_date to First day of Current Quarter, end_date to Today, then click OK.
    The following screenshots are for your reference:

  • Can we use sql default data base for deploying lync monitoring

    Hi,
    I just want to know whether i can install monitoring server using lync server default instance of sql server.
    because i got an error stating "Cannot access LcsCDR or QoEMetrics on Monitoring back-end database. Verify that these databases have been deployed, and that access to the Monitoring back-end database is not blocked by the firewall".
    But when i use the named instance then it is working fine. can any body tell me why it is happening.
    Regards,
    Aslam  

    Hi,
    You can use default instance as describe in the following link:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2011/06/27/deployment-details-for-lync-monitoring-reports.aspx
    Please refer to Installation section.
    Please make sure the account you used to deploy Monitoring Server reporting service has the required permission of your Monitoring Database.
    In addition, please double check the following limits of databases for Lync Server:
    You can collocate each of the following databases on the same database server:
    Back-end database
    Monitoring database
    Archiving database
    You can collocate any or any or all of these databases in a single SQL instance or use a separate SQL instances for each, with the following limitations:
    Each SQL instance can contain only a single back-end database, single Monitoring database, and single Archiving database.
    The database server cannot support more than one Front End pool, one Archiving Server, and one monitoring Server, but it can support one of each, regardless of whether the databases use the same SQL instance or separate SQL instances.

  • Hi, i wanted to resize my windows partion. I was thinking of using the default backup system for windows. Then switching to mac partion, deleting the bootcamp and then restoring a new enlarged partion from the backup. Is this possible?

    hi,
    i wanted to resize my windows partition. I was thinking of using the default backup system for windows. Then switching to mac partion, deleting the bootcamp and then restoring a new enlarged partition from the backup. Is this possible?

    I see youhave gotten recommendatons for using WinClone or CampTune.  I have used both and they both work well.
    You have asked about using the WIndows 7 utility to backup your drive and restor it onto a larger partition.  I will tell you fro experience that this will probably not do what you want, and may do something that you don't want.  You can use the Windows 7 native backup tool to make a backup of your Windows 7 partition.  It will most liekly end-up making a dive image of the whole drive.  When yourestore that backup, it will try to re-create teh partitions of exactly the same size as they were when the backup was taken, so it won't increase your partition size for you.  Worse, since Windows doesn't natively know how to read./write HFS+ volumes, the backup will make a partition for your MacOS (replacing any you may have now), except that the copy restored by WIndows will be totally worthless, and you will not be able to boot MacOS from it, or even read it under MacOS.
    Now I will tell you that I've also had some fairly good success working with the free tool CloneZilla.  Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, and everything else mentioned does cost you money, I thought I would throw it out.  CloneZilla is not as easy to use as the tools mentioned, but it has worked for me int hte past, so it is something to consider.  I tend to use CampTune myself, but that was because I purchased a bundle deal for them and it was included in that deal.

  • [svn] 3148: You can now use CSS styles to set the default text format for TextView.

    Log Message:
    You can now use CSS styles to set the default text format for TextView. It no longer has any formatting properties. It supports the entire set of Gumbo text format styles.
    SkinnableComponent and Group now also support all these styles. However, skins such as ButtonSkin, TextInputSkin, and TextAreaSkin continue for now to specify instance styles on their TextBox, TextGraphic, and TextView, in order to give them a Gumbo look rather than a Halo look. So if you try setting, for example, the fontSize on the Application, it doesn't yet affect the text format of a Button, TextInput, TextArea, etc. unless you remove the instance style in the skin.

  • Using OneDrive as default save location for project

    I installed VS on 2 different computers and want to develop from both of them at times. Either my desktop of laptop. Therefore I want to store the project files on the Onedrive folders that are mapped on my local machine.
    I have changed the default save location for Projects and also the other Registry Settings in HKCU... to onedrive/projects folder. But once I create the project from on PC and try to open it from another I am getting the following error.
    the file xxxx.csproj : error : The project file could not be loaded. The filed cannot be accessed by the system.

    Hello waddat,
    I haven't test this issue about onedrive mapped folder. But may I ask this question: Does the location exist in your PC or is it just a mapped virtual drive?
    In my point of view, when you tried to open a project from your folder, it is possible that the file is being used by onedrive synchronous process. Or Visual Studio cannot find the specific file because the file has not been uploaded/downloaded to the path
    you want to search?
    I don't recommend you set the default location to OneDrive folder, it is not reliable for you to do this because the synchronous process of OneDrive is not certain by us.
    If you want to store your projects online, the recommend way is to use Visual Studio Online
    http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/what-is-visual-studio-online-vs.aspx
    If you want to store projects using OneDrive, please try create your projects on local drive and upload your file to OneDrive and then download it from some other sides to us. I think this is the best practise for you.

  • Default security context for signed applets using WinXP+IE8

    What is the default security context for signed applets from the internet zone using Java 6 and WinXP+IE8 combination? My guess is that all file and socket access available for the user's Windows account is provided to the applet as well. Is this correct and if so, is there a way to limit these access privileges for signed applets from the internet zone?
    This information is surprisingly difficult to find given how security concious people now are using the internet.

    Unfortunately your answer reflects to my worst fears. Frankly I find this security model naiive. Anyone with euros can get their applet signed so that is no security control at all.The same naive security model applies to just about anything signed and downloaded; not just to Java Applets.

For example, for Windows, Vista just added more user involvement in the trust process but it still allows programs to run pretty much unconstrained if the user agrees to them running.
    For some time I have advocated a more fine grained approach. I would like to see ALL programs run in a sandbox that a user can specify what and what cannot be done by each individual program. Unfortunately, this would annoy the hell out of most users so it has little chance of every of ever being accepted. The average user just wants a run-and-forget-about-security model.
