VI does not float if called while modal dialog is running

In my program I have Floating VIs that popup if certain conditions are met. These Floating VIs allow the Main VI to continue running, but remain front most so the user knows there is an issue.
There are also other modal dialogs in the application that could be active when an Floating VI is called in the background. When the Floating VI is called it properly shows up behind the modal dialog and in front of the Main VI.
The problem is that when the modal dialog is dismissed the Floating VI is no longer floating and appears behind the Main VI. Switching focus between VI's will bring either VI to the front. Changing focus to Windows Explorer (clicking on desktop) then back to LabVIEW restores floating behavior to the Floating VI.
I've attached a crude example that exhibits this behavior.

I can't offer a solution, but I can verify that the interaction between floating windows and modal dialogs is "hinky" -- though I haven't noticed the effect that you mention.

  • Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

    This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line.  If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
    I turned my iPhone off and called it.  Right away I heard my message.
    I turned my iPhone back on and called it.  It rang right away!
    So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
    I don't know, but I'll take either.  I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem.  Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up.  I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time.  Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
    If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
    P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open.  I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
    P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week.  Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.

    when the apple review team review our app,they point out that our  app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently。but in fact,when the app in background ,the app need data update to make the function of  trajectory replay come ture。in fact, we have added function when the app  is in background mode。we have point out the point to them by email。but they still have question on the background mode,we are confused,does anyone can help me,i still don't know why do review team can't find the data update when  the app is in background and how do i modify the app,or what is the really problem they refered,do i misunderstand them?
    the blow is the content of the review team email:
    We found that your app uses a background mode but does not include functionality that requires that mode to run persistently. This behavior is not in compliance with the App Store Review Guidelines.
    We noticed your app declares support for location in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist but does not include features that require persistent location.
    It would be appropriate to add features that require persistent use of real-time location updates while the app is in the background or remove the "location" setting from the UIBackgroundModes key. If your application does not require persistent, real-time location updates, we recommend using the significant-change location service or the region monitoring location service.
    For more information on these options, please see the "Starting the Significant-Change Location Service" and "Monitoring Shape-Based Regions" sections in the Location Awareness Programming Guide.
    If you choose to add features that use the Location Background Mode, please include the following battery use disclaimer in your Application Description:
    "Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life."
    Additionally, at your earliest opportunity, please review the following question/s and provide as detailed information as you can in response. The more information you can provide upfront, the sooner we can complete your review.
    We are unable to access the app in use in "http://www.wayding.com/waydingweb/article/12/139". Please provide us a valid demo video to show your app in use.
    For discrete code-level questions, you may wish to consult with Apple Developer Technical Support. When the DTS engineer follows up with you, please be ready to provide:
    - complete details of your rejection issue(s)
    - screenshots
    - steps to reproduce the issue(s)
    - symbolicated crash logs - if your issue results in a crash log

  • OATS CPU does not support the SSE2 instruction set required to run JRockit

    Hello,
    I am trying to get the OATS agents to work on some injector machines, however, when I try to start them I get the following error:
    "[ERROR] Your CPU does not support the SSE2 instruction set required to run JRockit.
    Could not create the Java Virtual Machine."
    Is there a way to configure OATs to use the Sun JDK instead? I have the Sun JDK in my path and JAVA_HOME set accordingly, however that doesn't seem to make a difference. Alternatively, is there a workaround to this problem?
    Thanks,
    Michael.

    Hi Tab,
    In this case, SQL Server Analysis Services doesn’t support Distributed Transactions by design. Here is a similar thread about this issue for your reference, please see:

  • IMovie 10.02 does not have program memory while exporting movie

    Hi there,
    I would appreciate any help to learn what iMovie does while exporting a movie I just made.
    I am using the latest iMovie under OS Maverick and I have just created a project, added soundtracks and wanted to export the project
    into a movie. The project is 31 minutes long and trying to export it as a file in HD quality, iTunes breakes off after a while and shows
    the error message, that my system does not have any program memory anymore and that I have to shut down all used programs in order to
    avoid problems with my computer.
    Did anybody have had this kind of problem before? With the previous version, I made so many movies, partly almost an hour long and never had
    any trouble in doing so. I could export as HD movie or into Quick Time but now the game has changed and I do not know exactly what I did wrong.
    Why would there be not enough recources even though I upgraded my RAM to 8 GB.
    Cheers
    Zuse
    PS
    Sorry this might sound a bit funny, but my program language is German so I translated the German error message

    Hello Zuse,
    Thanks for your answer...
    I also walked the forums about this and no solution. I contacted yesterday assitance call and the person does not see more where the problem is. I tried to repair the disk and permissions thereof, restart in safe mode and reinstall iMovie 10 but to no avail. He even advised me to reinstall Maverick or as you say, to use the old version of iMovie 9. I hope Apple will soon respond to this issue and provide an update because it is not normal at all.
    Best regards!
    Phil

  • Firefox does not display item description while in EBAY.

    In Firefox I log on to EBAY. Any item that I call up does not display the description nor did IE 8. I upgraded IE 8 to IE 9 and EBAY now works in IE 9.I have set off the forged wed site message. I have installed latest Firefox, Realplayer and Flash player. I am running Kaspersky firewall, and several malware scan and registry fixers.
    The operating system is a current Windows 7.
    Ebay says it is not their problem yet the symptoms occurred when they changed how they display the description for an item.

  • Cluster does not work after a while

    Hi :
              I have 2 clustered EJB server, the IP address is 192.168.0.226 and
              192.168.0.227.
              A servlet server is calling these two EJB servers with
              t3://192.168.0.226,192.168.0.227:7001
              All three machine use weblogic 5.1 sp9, Win2K Advanced Server.
              If I restart weblogic service, then the cluster works fine. but after while
              the cluster does not work, all the client request goto only one machine, in
              most case it's 227.
              It has no use even if I restart the service in the losted server. I have to
              restart all the server.
              The weblogic.log in the losted server is like this :

    Are you running with any proxy? Is the servlet server also the static httpd
              server?
              What type of network equipment are you using? If its high-end (Cisco) make sure
              all ports are set to 100/Full.
              Also, try setting the SendDelay slightly higher (ie. 25, 30, 35). Experiment
              with different values.
              weblogic.cluster.multicastSendDelay=25

  • My microphone does not work on calls on my iPhone 4

    Don't ask me what has happened and I have been through all of the troubleshooting that I can on my own. 
    I have no clue how to get a hold of a LIVE AT&T person or APPLE person.
    The problem is my microphone does not work when I use the telephone, whether I make the call or someone calls me.  It is NOT the MUTE button.  And yes, I have already rebooted my iPhone about 5 times now.  Has not fixed it either.
    But the microphone DOES work as I was able to record a new voicemail greeting to let people know my phone isn't working.
    So, they could call me all day long but they won't hear me, so who do I call using my landline (thankfully I kept it).
    It is the day after Thanksgiving and I would be a fool to head over to the Apple Store or the AT&T Store....
    Thank-you,
    Marcia

  • Phone does not receive incoming calls

    Please help.  Verizon can't seem to.  My phone does not receive 90% of its incoming calls or messages.  I have been told to delete all of my messages and call logs- no use.  I have tried removing the battery and resetting the phone.  I did make sure the phone was not in "do not disturb" mood- it is not.  People who call me say that it doesn't ring, just goes straight to voice mail even though the phone is on.  Very frustrating problem as my 6 year old phone before seemed to give me better service.  I feel like a child who is only allowed to make outgoing calls!  Please help.  All suggestions are welcome.  Thank you.

    Check the Call Forwarding section. There are two options to select. One says Forward All Calls and the other says Forward Unanswered Calls. Make sure Forward All Calls is not selected. That would cause all calls to go to the number specified which may be your voicemail. To get there from the home screen click the Phone icon > push the option button (left of the trackball) > click options > click Call Forwarding.
