VI ran from tools menu does not work correctly

I have a VI that I created in LV7.0 and it works great in 7.1 now I am trying to get it to work in 8.0 and I get a very weird thing going on in 8.0 that I cannot understand. If I run the vi as is it works great it finds all the vi's in memory as it should but when it is run from the tools menu. (I did this by saving it to the projects folder) it does not find all the vi's in memory. So i started doing some debugging and found the code was OK. The I tried the example called memory monitor and when it is run standalone (ie double clicking on it in the example finder) everything runs great but when I save it to the project folder it does not show all the vi's in memory as it should. Does anyone have an explantion to this.
Joe.
"NOTHING IS EVER EASY"

Hello Joe,
Yes, this is the result of a fairly significant change in LabVIEW 8.  LabVIEW now has more than one "sandbox" so-to-speak such that you can have multiple copies of the same VI (or different VIs with the same name) in memory at the same time.  These separate "sandboxes" are referred to as "Application Instances".  VIs launched from the menus run in a different application instance than user VIs do.  Page 11 in the LabVIEW 8 Upgrade Notes, section header "User VIs", discusses in more detail this issue and what you can do to achieve the old behavior.

  • One Site from the Menu does not work

    Hello everyone,
    I recently built a simple webpage for my personal online-portfolio with the trial version of Adobe Muse. It involves five sites with some pictures and html-embedded YouTube-videos and a menu, that's it. When I publish the page to business catalyst, one of the pages can't be opened. If I click on the menu-button, it always goes to the "HOME"-section... Could anyone please help me?
    Here is the site: HOME
    -- > As you will see, when you click on the button "BEWEGTBILD", it always shows you the HOME-page. -.-
    Thank you!
    Lorenz

    Hi Lorenz,
    It seems that your first two links both point to "index.html" i.e. the Home Page of the site.
    You would need to fix the link on BEWEGTBILD to make it take you to the correct page.
    Cheers,

  • The mouse right-click (to copy-paste) menu does not work correctly.

    The mouse right-click copy-paste menu often fails in Firefox 4. If I highlight something to copy and then use the mouse to right-click on it, the menu will appear down and to the right. Second, the highlighted command (i.e. copy, paste, etc) will be two steps beneath the mouse pointer. Third, if one chooses "copy" for example, your highlighted text might or might not (usually Not) be copied. This works as expected (perfectly) on this Firefox site, but fails on all other web pages. Note: This is a "company computer" where I am not an administrator.

    I am the admin on my PC, and I am not able to select the copy page after I have highlighted an area. I can if a link select copy link, but in short no more copy paste feature on this new Firefox.

  • Pull down menu does not work.

    Hi.
    I'm using Firefox 24.0 under LinuxMint 14.
    Sometimes, pull down menu does not work correctly.
    When I tap File or Edi or View, Menu blinks instantly.
    To resolve, I restart Firefox.
    I disabled "Use hardware acceleration when available".

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I can't find anything on a webpage

    The "FIND" feature in the Edit menu does not work. I cannot search a page. If I am looking for the word "Doctor" and I know it is on the page. All I get after typing the first letter is that the typing box turns red.
    This is not fun.

    Make sure that <b>[] "Match case"</b> on the Find bar (Ctrl+F) doesn't have a check-mark.

  • My Bridge Tools menu does not have Photoshop submenu

    Hi,
    In Bridge CS3, I just noticed that the Tools menu does not have a Photoshop submenu and therefore I cannot apply Batch commands - among other things.
    I have the latest version (2.1.1.9) in MAC OS X Leopard. What is going on?
    I have a friend that has the same program in Windows Vista and has the Photoshop submenu...
    Please help!
    Juan Dent

    Check your preference folder start up scripts. Inhere the startup script should have a checkmark on it. if not put in on and after restart the script should be there.
    Otherwise try a refresh preferences holding down the option key when restarting bridge.

  • Spry tool tip does not work in template or child pages within an editable region. Why not?

    Ok. so I am getting pretty frustrated. I take the time to learn how to use CSS and to create a template page for a Contractor Site (www.ContractorInsurance.net). The idea is to create a page that I can use for different classes of Contractors...right?
    Then I get all happy about being able to insert ToolTip onto pages to help the user. Great!
    LIfe to turn to Sorrow after nearly five hours of searching for a "eeking" answer.
    So what good does it do to have an Editable region to update if we cannot have the flexibility to insert a tool tip on child pages?  Ok so the fast solution is to what... Have a question mark image, insert another apDiv, name it toolTip_Not and provide it with a show=hide behavior?
    RRRRRrrr...
    This really sucks not being able to find a solution within a reasonable amount of time.

    I have tried thank you. However...it is still not working.

    If you have a look at the following simple document with a tooltipTooltip trigger goes here.
    Tooltip content goes here.
    you will notice that a couple of lines have been placed in the HEAD section of the document. When using DW templates, the HEAD section is usually not editable, hence the error mesaage. By default, your template should have an editable region in it just before the closing tag. It looks like this: <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" > <! TemplateEndEditable --> Dreamweaver should be able to find that editable region and insert the
    <script> tag there automatically. Because you don't have an editable region like that in the <head>, open the master template, and paste the code above just before the closing </head>
    tag. Gramps

  • Windows 7 Defrag from command line does not work

    We are running Windows 7 in a virtualized environment. When running windows defrag using schedule or from command line, it does not work. The command that I am executing as administrator is
    C:\Windows\system32>defrag /c
    Microsoft Disk Defragmenter
    Copyright (c) 2007 Microsoft Corp.
    It displays the above message and exits back to the command prompt. However if I run the command defrag C: it does work. Defragmenting from the GUI works as well as long as both the disks (C: and System Reserved) are selected and when I click on
    Defragment disks, works fine.
    I am concerned about defrag running from the task scheduler with the command "defrag /c" (auto scheduled using Configure Schedule... from Disk Defragmenter) does not work and the system never gets defragmented automatically.
    This happens only with some of the windows 7 VM's that we have.
    There are no entries in Event Log that point to the defrag (using task scheduler). Any ideas what may be going on?

    Hi,
    Could you defrag as below method:
    1. Open Disk Defragmenter by clicking the Start button. In the search box, type
    Disk Defragmenter, and then, in the list of results, click
    Disk Defragmenter.
    2.Under Current status, select the disk you want to defragment.
    3.To determine if the disk needs to be defragmented or not, click Analyze disk. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    Once Windows is finished analyzing the disk, you can check the percentage of fragmentation on the disk in the
    Last Run column. If the number is above 10%, you should defragment the disk.
    4.Click Defragment disk. Administrator permission required If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

    Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
    Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
    I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

    I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

    Hi,
    and you should then iron out this minor inaccuracy, which I found in your source code, for example here:
    <div align="center"><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="hays.html">HAYS</a>
            <ul>
              <li><a href="hayswalkingtour.html">Walking Tour</a> </li>
              <li><a href="forthays.html">Fort Hays</a></li>
            </ul>
    All your "first" entries have to show a '#", like this:
          <div align="center"><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">HAYS</a>
            <ul>
              <li><a href="hayswalkingtour.html">Walking Tour</a> </li>
              <li><a href="forthays.html">Fort Hays</a></li>
            </ul>
          </div>
    after that you can link to the individual subgroups. See here e.g. (screenshots from my German DW):
