View as Icon in LV7

Hello,
is there an option that the new controls, indicators, ... are at once placed
as always and not as "Icon"? I always have to remove the "View as Icon"
thing to have the old LV6-look.
Thanks

Hi Powder,
Go to the LabVIEW options (Tools>>Options...) and uncheck the the option named: "Place front panel terminals as icons"

Default Mail attachments to "View As Icon"

Is there a way to default attachments to "View As Icon" instead of previewing them in Mail? Specifically MP3s, since there's no way to drag the preview player directly into iTunes. I know I can just right click to change, but I get a lot of emails with MP3s attached and need to pull them straight into playlists.
Thanks in advance for any help.

"Iconizer" or "attachment tamer" could be your answer.

Yes, In LabVIEW 2012 you can select any number of terminals, right-click, and change them all at once.
(In LabVIEW 2011 and earlier you cannot do that)

Disable view as icon

Every time I create a new controller/indicator from the block diagram windows, it keeps placing the newly created controller/indicator from block diagram windows as "view as icon". How do I disable this view so that it always default to false? I don't want view as icon.

Apparently new users prefer the big and bulky.

As for the express VI's that is a good suggestion and I've never found a way for an express VI to default as a small Icon View (and turn off the caption). If this is hidden INI key I want it.
But honestly I use express VIs so seldom that it doesn't bother me too much.

Removing the default (View As Icon) for the control and Indicator

If you remove the default selection View As Icon for all the control and indicator, it is good for the programmer for easy to visualize the Block diagram code.

This has already been suggested - http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Default-Option-Do-NOT-Place-Front-Panel-Terminal-as-Icon/idi-p/926871
Also, note that you can already change it on your computer as mentioned there.

View as Icon help

I am trying to attach a jpeg image to an email.
I attach the image and select 'View as Icon' and send it. To the recipient, It appears as the image, however it is the size of the icon and it can not be opened.
I have attached it from the desktop and it is only 500 kb. The other option is to attach as a full size image which works but I want to attach it as an icon.
Unfortunately I cannot get this to work.
Frustrated
Can anyone help me please
Kind Regards
Gregg

How it appears at the recipient's end will depend on their email software.
If their email software does not use html format your attachment will just be a file they will need to open, otherwise the sent image could well appear as an image in the body of the email as it does with you.
You can add the image through either the Mail toolbar Attach, or drag the image from your Desktop into the email.
For the file size, after you add it to your email, at the bottom of the window will be Image size. Choose the desired size, Actual Size would be satisfactory for something 500k big.

View as icon is evil?

I perused through the CLD sample vi, and ALL of the samples' variables are not in view as icon. I attach one of the sample vi.
What gives? Is this some kind of secret convention I dont know about? Or is it just a personal preference that makes the block diagrams look more neat? View as icon looks messy?

"Aristos Queue" did mention one reason to view as icon, which is when doing LVOOP it shows more info about OOP controls. As mentioned before, this "feature" was added only a few releases ago, so many of us are used to the "old" view. It does take up a lot of "real estate" on a block diagram, so that can be an issue.

View as icon - Wheres it gone?

I use email attachments a great deal - sending documents and drawings etc. and as there are usually multiple attchments and mail defaults by inserting a preview of the attachment I often right click and select the "View as icon" button. This is really useful if sending over 5 or so documents but I noticed today that "View as icon" has disappeared from the right click menu.
Anyone know where it has gone? Is this the result of an update I haven't noticed? On a similar front is there a way of changing mail preferences so that the attachments appear as icons as a default?
Thanks for your help in this folks.

Seems to there for me:
This is in a new message. Also was there on incoming messages.
As for setting it permanently, don;t see anything in Preferences, don;t know if there is another way to do it.

View as icon vs. view as list

If I select "view as icon" for a finder window, it applies that setting to all the windows. Is there a way to "view as icon" in one folder, for example, and to "view as list" in another window. I remember being able to do this in 10.4 on my old laptop.
Thanks,
Ralph

Hey all,
I'm a long time Mac user, way back before OSX. I responded to another thread on a similar subject. It's kind of a long post, but you might find it interesting/helpful. Basically, how an old Mac user approaches the 10.5 Finder (which I've grown to really like, btw).
Here's the thread link...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1766829&tstart=60
Here's the post I put up there...
"Re: Global Finder Window Problems..."
This is actually the default viewing system in 10.5 (newly opened folders automatically adopting the view of any previously opened folder). I little weird at first, but read on for my take on why I think 10.5 is much nicer than 10.4 and preceding OXSs.
I started using Macs in the pre-OSX days, so was used to the completely dependable and always predictable "spatial" Finder of OS9 and down. Spatial meaning, folders all opening in new windows with every window position, view setting, icon position, even scroll bar (if there is one) remembered without exception. Also, no browser mode at all.
So I tried to recreate the old OS9 default folder view in 10.4... First, create a desktop folder, set to icon view, turn off Toolbar/Sidbar, which causes nested folders to open in their own new window. Great! Now all folders within created within that folder adopt that view, right? They do, but not if you drag one to the desktop, at that point the Toolbar/Sidebar magically reappears. It also reappears if you navigate to the same folder via Dock's cascading menu system (assuming you've placed a hard drive or folder there). Another 10.4 oddity...if you have Finder set to open at the top level "Computer" when activated from it's Dock icon, it would never remember icon size and position. Sometimes even forgetting window size/position (at least my install of 10.4 did this). On and on....life with the forgetful, stubborn OSX Finder.
However, 10.5 is fantastic at remembering folder view settings. Only thing is, that's not turned on by default. Instead, the default behavior is for folders to adopt the previous folder view setting. This is actually not a bad thing if you prefer to use the browser style navigation the Finder offers. You alter a view setting, list view for example, browse a while, then change it to icon, continue browsing, etc, etc... Thats 10.5's default behavior. To make a specific folder remember a view state, all you have to do is set the view you want, open the Show View Options and check the Always Open In... check box. Now, it will very dependably remember it's view state.
Personally, I've always had my own ideas about how the Finder should behave, and have suggested them to Apple. I've always thought there should be a separate Finder/Browser app that boots up from the Dock Finder icon. It always opens with the Toolbar/Sidebar on (ie: all folders are navigated to via a single browser window). You set it to some browser friendly view (ie: list, column), and it retains that view state as you browse no matter what view settings you may have set for an individual folder. That's the Finder/Browser. To see unique pre-folder view settings, you open the hard drive icon from the Desktop. It opens with the Toolbar/Sidebar off (ie: all folders open in new windows). You could consider this to not even being the "Finder application". Just think of it as "manually looking at the contents of the hard drive". As you drill down, opening new windows, you can create view states which are always remembered when opened via double click the hard drive from the Desktop.
I attempted to created this behavior in 10.4, but the Finder was just forgetful enough, and stubborn enough, not to cooperate fully (see explanations above). However, in 10.5 it works beautifully. I first set the Finder Preferences to open "Computer", opened the Finder via the Dock icon and set it to Column view. From re-boot to re-boot, this set up is remembered exactly, even the window size and position. This is great for browser navigation.
For "manually exploring" (or as some referred to as "spatial"), you must first tell every window on your hard drive to "Always Open In...." whatever you want you default state to be (other wise it will just open in the state in whatever the most resent folder was opened in). I created a script for this with the settings as...Toolbar/Sidebar off & icon view. I then ran the script on the entire drive, and all sub-folders. Over time, I've changed the settings of folders I want to open differently (mainly list as apposed to icon), making sure I open the View Options and rechecking "Always open in..." to whatever adjustment I made. My drive is in great order now and remembers every view detail. Any windows I don't mess with default to a completely predictable "Icon View".
So 10.5 gives me the best of both worlds. Very reliable spatial (ie: old fashion manually opening window after window....handy for dragging files around the hard drive), and super streamlined browsing...good for navigating to and opening files quickly.
My 3 cents...sorry for the long post.

"View as Icon" in Mail

Hi all!
I wonder if it is possible to set attribute "View as Icon" as default for all attachments in messages in Mail?
(Sorry for my russian English)

Hello!
Your English is great.
There is no default setting for this in Mail but check Mail Attachments Iconizer.

Attachments - "view as icon"

Is there any way to make "view as icon" the default when attaching files?

You're welcome.
I used the very first OS X Mail.app version for a short time until Office X was introduced when I began using Entourage.
I switch back to using the Mail.app exclusively when Jaguar was introduced thru Panther and now Tiger and the Mail.app has always displayed image/picture and smaller PDF attachments (1-2) pages inline or viewed in place within the body of the message.
I quickly grew to prefer this since I can confirm the correct image or picture attachment has been selected before the message is sent.
I have not experienced the same problem and I've installed all available updates.
Anything special about these attachments or does the problem occur with any and all image or picture attachments regardless?

In Mountain Lion, Mail why no "view as icon" option

I used to be able to compose a message, attach a PDF and right click to "view as icon." Now when I attach, I see a preview of the doc. When I save as a draft, the PDFs appear as icons. When a PC user receives them, will they arrive as PDF attachments icons only showing or will it show a preview of the doc in their opening window?

In Mountain Lion mail, it is still possible to switch between a preview and an icon of an attachment.
How somebody else is seeing it when he/she is receiving it it totally up to their mail app. It has nothing to do with PC or Mac or whatever system they use.
So you have basically no real chance to control what the receipient will see when looking at your mail.

Default to "view as icon" in Mail.app messages (with attachments)

Hello,
Other than using Mail Attachments Iconizer (http://lokiware.info/Mail-Attachments-Iconizer), does anyone know of a way to default mail.app to "view as icon" when adding attachments to messages?
Working in print design, we're always sending PDFs and images and it's a little annoying when you have a large (in dimension, not bit size) attachment and it just takes over your message.
Thanks,
Kristin.

Page Not Found Error when clicking on Crystal Report Viewer print icon

Hi,
    I am working with ASP.NET 2.0 and crystla reportXI release2.
    I am getting "Page Can not be Found " error when clicking on Crystal Report Viewer print icon.
    Could you please tell me how to get rid of this error?
Regards,
Smitha

This sounds like a postback issue. Does your application handle postback by putting the report in session?
There is a [sample|http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXIR2SP2/en/en/CrystalReports_dotNET_SDK/crsdk_samples_aspx/data/crsdk_net_tutorials_115_en.zip] to look at on our website. It was created with Crystal Reports XI R2 and Visual Studio .NET but the code will be the same.
A short pseudocode would be something like this:
Dim rptDocument As ReportDocument
If Not Me.IsPostBack or Session("Report") = Nothing Then
rptDocument = New ReportDocument
rptDocument.Load(sGlobalPath & "\myreport.rpt";)
