VI for Animations SmartMotor to Excel

Dear NI's LabView Community,
I have a question connecting SmartMotor to LabView. I am trying to generate an ActiveX(Word,Excel,etc.) report from LabView after running SmartMotor and recording the data acquired from it. I read about using Call Library Function and connect the SMEngine.dll then create functions, which I don't know how to proceed. I need help creating this VI.
Summary of procedures:
SmartMotor > LabView > Excel, or Word.
Thank You.

Thanks for the reply dkfire. Let me explain smartmotor. Pulled from the website:
SmartMotor is a highly programmable, integrated servo motor system that is integrated with a motor, an encoder, an amplifier, a controller, RS232/RS485 communication, and IOs. (http://www.animatics.com/products/smartmotor.html) I I have connecting the motor to a my laptop through a USB Serial Adapter. I am able to program and run the motor using the SmartMotor Interface program that Animatics created. SmartMotor user guide http://www.animatics.com/download/legacy/Users_GuideV5.pdf
The communication link between my laptop to the smartmotor is through RS232. I am able to record velocity, torque,position, etc using the SmartMotor Interface. I am trying to connect the SmartMotor Interface with LabView so that I could run the SmartMotor on LabView and be able to output an Excel Graph of different variables (Velocity, Position, etc.) I pulled the .dll file from system32. the SMIEngine.dll is the SmartMotor Interface Engine. dll file. I am brand new to LabView so I have no clue how to start. I have the most difficulty in setting up the Call Library Function Node on LabView. I looked into from the NI summary page that you linked, but I am still unclear as to how to set it up. The main issue is setting up the parameters for me, because I don’t know what to do from there. I looked up videos and post on this topic, but none have help me to setup the LabView VI. Thanks for the reply dkfire, hope you and other members could help me out here.

I don't do animations in PS or IR, but if you like, send me
the file
and I'll see if I can figure something out.

Is there support for animated .gif files?

Is there support for animated gif files using
form builder? I can't get it to work.
Thanks
Sean
I am using forms 6.0

She used the Link Tool, specfied 'Image URL' as the Source File Format and the url of the animated GIF in the Source Filename. Hope that helps.
Makes sense but the form is not for the web.
I have looked at doing it with timers and switching canvases, but that is just too much
for sloppy animation. It's just not tight enough.
Thanks,

Set frame delay time for animated gif using ImageIO

I'm trying to change the delay time of each frame for an animated gif by changing the metadata for each frame as following but it doesn't change anything.
static private IIOMetadata setMetadata(IIOMetadata metadata, int delayMS) throws IOException
          Node root = metadata.getAsTree("javax_imageio_gif_image_1.0");
          for (Node c = root.getFirstChild(); c != null; c = c.getNextSibling())

What are the best programs for word processing and excel for the iPad

Advantages of using Final Cut Pro for animation

Is there anyone out there using Final Cut Pro 6 that could tell me what they feel are the advantages of using FCP 6 for animation as compared to Final Cut Express 3.5?

Okay, cool. I was gonna use that in the first place but I'm still learning it and so far all I know how to do on it is clean up the audio. I'm going through a Soundtrack Pro book right now and had to stop because I couldn't continue without a microphone. I'm getting that microphone this week and by the time I have the next batch of audio files to edit I'll know what I'm doing in Soundtrack Pro.
Thanks for the suggestion, I was seriously coming back to this question to elaborate for the sake of bumping this.
Oh yeah, if Soundtrack Pro is the answer, is it possible to bypass FCP on the way in AND on the way out?

Taskbar Jumplist anomalies for Word 2010 and Excel 2010

I am having problems with missing jumplists for Office 2010 products (Word and Excel) pinned on the Windows 7 taskbar, **BUT** have no problems with jumplists for Notepad and IE pinned on the taskbar.
Observation 1: I just upgraded from Office 2010 Starter to full Office 2010 by getting a product key. Full Office 2010 was installed on my laptop when I purchased it but only Starter was licensed. Full Office 2010 was unusable until the upgrade. I suspect
the leapfrog from Starter to full Office 2010 might have a part in this jumplist issue.
Observation 2: I can see from a DOS prompt that the AutomaticDestinations and CustomDestinations folders exist under Recent. However, from Windows Explorer I cannot see the 2 folders under Recent. (That may be a clue…if other people CAN see the 2 folders
from Windows Explorer.)
Observation 3: In DOS, I can see that both directories have files ending in -ms. I can also see updates (new files with fresh timestamps) from opening Word and Excel files in those 2 directories. It’s almost like Word and Excel don’t understand to go look
in those 2 directories after the Office upgrade, even though Windows 7 (?) generates the -ms files for the jumplist function.
Observation 4: Again, no problems with Notepad and IE jumplists. I can remove the files from the AutomaticDestinations folder and cause Notepad to have no jumplist items, and then restore them and Notepad has jumplist contents again.
Observation 5: I had no problem using jumplists with Word Starter and Excel Starter. All references to Office/Word/Excel Starter are now gone from the Starter button and All Programs - sent to Recycle bin. I deleted the Word Starter
and Excel Starter entries when I upgraded, but I just deleted the Microsoft Office Starter (Englisgh) entry under All Programs today...I thought it was a benign entry and wouldn't hurt since I wasn't using it. Maybe there's some corruption in registry
as a result of the mixture. Interestingly, I can drag a file created in Word Starter to the taskbar and it will try to pin it to the Word Starter taskbar "ghost" that's in the Recycle bin.
Any clues anyone? I have no large files in the two destination folders, and have only about 20 files total in each folder...far fewer than the 999 threshhold mentioned in one of the updates for Office 2010.
Thank you!

I encountered exactly the same problem, and under exactly the same circumstances as the original poster (upgraded from Office Starter to Home and Business; jump lists worked fine in Starter, then stopped working for Excel and Word after upgrading).
Like the original poster, none of the various fixes found online corrected the problem, nor did re-installing Office.
I also tried what was suggested by Max Meng and created a new User Account. The problem occurred for the new account, just as it did with the old one.
After about 6 hours of fighting, I have finally solved the problem. The solution is not easy, fast or pretty.
What I did was uninstall Office (again) using the Control Panel. Then I ran a FixIt utility found here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 (method 2)
My hope was that this would do additional registry clean-up. I knew from earlier attempts that this alone would not fix the problem, though.
Despite uninstalling twice, there were still a lot of references left in the registry to "Word Starter" and "Excel Starter". Likewise, there were still references to "WINWORDC.EXE" and "EXCELC.EXE", which are the starter versions of the executables.
So I went through the registry using RegEdit, and manually deleted every key which included those strings. The largest number of cases were file type definitions for various Word and Excel file extensions. When in doubt, I deleted entire tag
hierarchies for Word and Office file types, figuring that they would be restored when I reinstalled Office. In the process, I removed pretty much every reference to Word or Excel that I could find in the registry.
I also deleted any directory on my hard drive (in c:\Program Files(x86), c:\Program Data, and c:\Users\<name>\AppData which appeared to be related to Office.
Having done this, I reinstalled again, and the jump lists for Word and Excel now work.
In debugging the problem, I found that .automaticDestination-ms files (which contain the data behind the jump lists) were not being created when I opened Word or Excel documents; they *were* being created when I manually pinned individual files to the
taskbar, however.
I suspect that this might be due to the long hexadecimal filename being based on a hash of the application name, or what the system thinks is the application name based on the file type. Removing the references to "Word Starter" and "Excel Starter",
and the corresponding WINWORDC.EXE and EXCELC.EXE in the registry might have cleared up this problem.
Obviously this fix is potentially risky, and should only be attempted if you are comfortable editing the registry. Making a full system backup beforehand would be a wise precaution. For this specific case, however (broken jump lists after
upgrading from Starter to full Office) it would appear the only alternative is a clean install of Windows (to wipe the registry completely).

Premiere timeline printing (for animation x-sheet use)

I have used a very old version of adobe premiere (premiere 5 windows) to print timeline pdfs of pix icon and waveform of animatic quicktimes. I would add anotations to these in acrobat for specific animation timing direction ( as replacement for traditional animation exposure sheets). My problem is that adobe long ago dropped their print timeline feature in more recent versions and I can't get the old version of premiere to even launch under any recent OS....
I'm hoping there is a way to do the same thing with new Premiere Pro CC ....(just print premiere timeline of pix icons with audio waveform).. or a third party export for animation exposure sheet use... Any Suggestions?
Thanks,
Woody

Woody,
Thinking about your situation, I wonder if something like this would be useful (what Joe suggested, but with variations):
I just expanded a blank Narration Audio Track, to about 6x the width of the displayed Video Track, did a screen-cap, brought it into Photoshop, and Selected that area of the Narration Track, applied a Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer to it, to give room for annotations, etc.. As I only have PrPro 2.0 on this old laptop, things will look a bit different, but with the Adjustment Layer, it will not matter if the GUI is a darker gray.
One can always add a blank Track, where desired, and expand it to suit. One could also create a white Filled Shape, w/ grid (see below), and just have that ready to be Pasted into the screen-cap of the Timeline. One could probably create an Action, or a Script, to handle much of that automatically, or at least semi-automatically.
It is missing the grid, that your image shows, but one could easily create that with Paths and a thin Stroke on a Layer.
There IS a little work to be done, but not THAT much.
Just thinking of a workaround.
Good luck,
Hunt

Project Report for One Project Using Excel

Hi,
Is is possible to create a report for one project using excel?
I want to create a pdp with an Excel Viewer web part and have the following tabs with data specific to the one project.
1. Cover
2. Issues
3. Risks
4. Deliverables
I tried passing the ProjUid to an Excel doc via the Excel Query Filter Web Part and was able to filter the Issues lists only but don't know if its possible to filter out the other tabs by using the same paramater. Is this possible?
I have not looked at Odata but was wondering if it was possible to pass a paramater to the odata query and still have the spreadsheet work in a web view in SharePoint?

Hi,
I'd say that as far as you promote the Proj UID field as a filter in all sheets of your Excel workbook, using the Excel
Query Filter Web Part should work fine. But testing it should be easy, since you already did half of the work.
See excellent article from Andrew on this topic:

Which Program for Animation?

Hi, I was looking into buying CC (19.99/month plan) for animating. The little problem I ran into is which program should I choose in the drop down menu to animate? When people make flash animations which program are they running? Sorry if it sounds like a simple question I am just confused. (I want to make 2D animations not 3D). Thanks.
