What's the best way of displaying output in other VI ?

For example, in a sub-vi I continuously acquire a motor position, and I want the position value to be displayed simultaneously in a numerical indicator or waveform in the main vi.
I know there are lots of ways to implement this easily, but I just want to know what's the best way which use lest computer resources, say memory....
Can control reference be used effectively for this?
Thank you for your suggestion.

here is an example (in LV7.0) of what Dennis is refering to.

  • What is the best way to display a Interactive Report having 20 columns

    Hi,
    I am having a Interactive Report having many columns (around 20).
    What is the best way to display that report...by default we have to scroll it horizontally to see all the columns.
    I want to avoid Horizontally Scrolling.
    Thanks,
    Deepak

    Hello Deepak,
    You mean apart from using a smaller font size or a bigger monitor?
    You can think about combining / wrapping columns (so more data in one column).
    Or hide some less important data and show that only on demand.

  • What is the best way to display text?

    Hi,
    I am developing a full screen presentation. I like to know which is the best way to display text with different styles and fonts.
    When i use JLabel, i have to use HTML. But the presentation is not good as it does not have anti-alias property. Also i want the background to be seen behind the text. Note that all the text in a paragraph is not of same style. I want some words to be in different color and style.
    Thanks,
    Mathan

    It works alos with JTextPane:
    Try this :
    import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class MyTextPane extends JTextPane  {
         public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
              Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;          
              g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_TEXT_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_TEXT_ANTIALIAS_ON);          
              super.paintComponent(g2d);
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              JFrame f = new JFrame("test");
              f.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(new MyTextPane()));
              f.setBounds(200,200,300,400);
              f.setVisible(true);

  • What is the best way to display image ??

    hi my questions is unusual, there are so many ways to display images.
    I m developing image processing s/w can any one suggest me which would be the best way to display image on which i can perform image operations.
    like in JPanel, icon, trhough paint() or anything else...
    thank you..In advance

    hi man... i think so imaging is better with JAI(Java Advanced Imaging) .... is perfect for display in jcomponent like JPanel or JLabel, you have to replace the paintComponent().
    import java.awt.Graphics;
    import java.awt.Graphics2D;
    import java.awt.Rectangle;
    import java.awt.geom.AffineTransform;
    import javax.media.jai.PlanarImage;
    import javax.swing.JComponent;
    class ImagePanel extends JComponent {
         protected PlanarImage image1;
         protected AffineTransform atx= new AffineTransform();
         protected int width, heigth;
         public ImagePanel() {
         public ImagePanel(PlanarImage i) {
              image1= i;
              width= i.getWidth();
              heigth= i.getHeight();
         public void paintComponent(Graphics gc) {
              Graphics2D g= (Graphics2D)gc;
              Rectangle rect= this.getBounds();
              if ((width != rect.width) || (heigth != rect.height)) {
                   double magx= rect.width / (double)width;
                   double magy= rect.height / (double)heigth;
                   atx.setToScale(magx, magy);
              if (image1 != null)
                   g.drawRenderedImage(image1, atx);
    if you need more info, ask about JAI api and docs

  • What's the best way to display my lightroom pictures onto my TV via Apple TV? i..e make a slide show

    This was done flawlessly with aperture but Apple doesn't like non-apple products so I was not sure if there was an easy way to do this?
    I want to choose pics from my various collections and see them on my tv using apple tv.  I would rather not COPY the pics to a new location since there are many many gigs of pics and they are all stored on my networked drive.  Anyone using a Mac and apple tv manage to figure out how to do this with Lightroom 5?

    Ok - see if I can do it 'the hard way' ....
    Hi Jeff,
    By "Output Only Folder”, I am suggesting a folder that you export to, via LR, and then never re-import it … it’s just a place to dump the images and since you can re-create them any time, you could delete it at will.
    Here’s the Export Dialogue I have setup from LR to iPhoto …. The optimal output dimensions are 1920 x 1080.  If you crop each image to that ratio, which is the same as 16 :: 9, then the images will fill the screen.  Otherwise just let one of the dimensions max out and the other will fall suit to 1920 or 1080 or lower as the case may be and it will map onto the Plasma at 1 :: 1 – so the Apple TV won’t have to scrunch it again.
    My  output dialog follows.  Note that it sets it up to go under Users/Jim/Caches/iPhoto Cache and then I setup a sub-folder name right underneath which I change (it’s Merc in this example).  So, this becomes the folder in iPhoto – and I can move that into an album or not as I wish.  See the iTunes screen shot a little further down.  The dimensions are setup to 1920 x 1080 at 100%.  The last section, under Post Processing, causes the folder to get read by iPhoto as soon as the Export finishes running and, voila, they are in iPhoto.  I can then clean iPhoto out when I wish.  Yes, it’s a duplicate – but these JPEG’s are smaller than the raws….maybe 300-400kb.
    (side note – the LR Mogrify section is a section you will NOT likely have – it’s merely a plugin I have that allows me to put some borders around output images, watermarks and so forth as the last step in the process – strictly optional but occasionally useful.  It’s not expensive – just google for it)
    Then here’s how it looks when it arrives a second or two later in iPhoto.  So, you can manage these into Albums, etc.  Then look to the bottom for the iTunes interaction.
    From the iTunes menu, select File | Home Sharing | Choose Photos to Share with Apple TV
    Then …..
    Note in the left panel, I have checked Last Import – where this photo was – but you could move/arrange the photos into new Albums and then they would show up and you could select them.  After you select then and Apply, turn on your Apple TV – and it may take a few minutes to sync up.  But then it’s done and you can choose Transitions and so forth on the ATV to nicely display them.

  • What is the best way to display list of software titles for sale?

    I am a small retailer that would like to display a list of approximately 15-30 software titles in the most professional way (with prices).
    Can anyone recommend a layout that would serve this purpose, the ones in the template just don't seem to cut it.
    If anyone wants to email me an example, I'd really appreciate it.

    Probably your best bet would be to browse the websites or catalogs of other software stores to see what strikes you as professional, and use that as an inspiration to design your own.
    Also, there are many websites with additional iWork templates--here's one:
    http://www.iworkcommunity.com/
    and google turns up more.
    I can think of a few different ways to present a list of 15-30 software titles with prices (one column, two column, sub-categorized by maker, sub-categorized by function, sub-categorized by sale vs. regular price), but only you have the knowledge to know what system is most likely to appeal to your customers and match the overall graphic presentation of your store.

  • What's the best way to display color-coded telemetry?

    I have an array of up to 64 name-value pairs -- one for each sensor channel (thermocouple, pressure transducer, etc.).  I would simply use an array of clusters with the name and value, but I also want to be able to flag when a particular value goes out of limit.  I want to change the background color of the value to yellow or red depending on the value.  As I understand it, I cannot change the properties of individual items in an array.  :-(  So I'm forced to explicitly lay out 64 string and numeric indicators (even if I'm not using them all)!  Yuck.
    Surely I'm not the first LabView user who wants to color-code a telemetry array display!  Is there a better way to do this?  I've looked at the multicolumn list box but that seems to be aimed at allowing the user to select something from a list -- not strictly display things.  Besides, I don't see a way to change the colors of an individual cell for the listbox either.
    Please help!
    Keith.

    OK, I added defer panel updates and it did speed up the table and listbox significantly (down to around 3 ms) but still not as fast as the cluster array.  (BTW, replacing the active cell read with a constant had no effect.)  But here's what's weird: with the defer, the cluster array is incredibly slow -- around 7 ms!  Not sure what to make of this other than avoid property nodes at all costs -- even if it means using an ugly transparent indicator hack so I can change the BG color ...

  • What is the best way to display different array values to appropriate indicators?

    I am using DAQmx Read vi and its output is an array. I need a way to pass each value to an appropriate front panel indicator, so I can monitor each sensor. I tried using "Index Array" and passing the array element to the indicators but it looks sloppy. Is there a more professional way? Thanks!

    Mole.vi ‏215 KB

    Try using the Array to Cluster function in the Cluster subpallet. If you put all of your indicators in the same cluster on your front panel, you can then pass the array data to this function and then pass it directly to the cluster without having to index the array.

  • What's the best way to display my iTunes Library?

    Hi All,
    I slways loved the idea that LP's. and to a lesser degree cd's, were something I loved to see displayed in my main room.  Flicking through my collection, seeing something I hadn't played in ages, but also having the cover art available to look at.  Not so easy having gone digital and being pressured to dispose of my CD's, I'd love to hear how people look through their collections, and have ways to visialise them on screens.

  • What is the best way to install OSX and other computer files?

    Hi,
    Long story short my Mac OSX got rewritten over with Windows XP so have to do a fresh install. So do I do the fresh install first and then transfer over all the stuff from my sister's computer to mine via Firewire?
    You know when you first get a Mac it says do you want to transfer your files from another computer, well that is what I want to do since my sister's computer has a lot of what I used on my computer. So do I do a fresh install first and then is there an option to transfer over all her stuff after the fresh install? Or do I have to manually grab what I can off her computer?
    Basically just want to know which comes first.
    S.

    I think it's offered as an option at some point during the installation. But you can always start the Migration Assistant at any later point (it's located in Applications/Utilities) - that's the same application.
    That's what I did, actually. I did a clean install first and only after everything was up and running did I hook up my old G4 and transferred things over with the help of the Migration Assitant.

  • I have an old 30" apple cinema display (2005) I want to use as a 2nd monitor to a new iMac (2012).  I don't just want mirror image of iMac; what's the best way to do this?

    I have not bought the iMac yet but will do so very soon and just want to make sure I have what I need to get everything setup including adding the old faithful 2005 30" cinema display.  Currently I am driving the old 30" cinema display with a macbook pro also purchased 2005 and happy to say I got a lot of good miles out of this rig.  What's the best way to connect the old 30" monitor as a second display for the new generation iMacs?
    Other Questions
    I can find online new in unopened box a 2012 iMac 27" i7 with 1T Fusion Drive for $1899 no sales tax.  This seems like a pretty good deal since I notice the same is available from Apple refurbished for $100 more plus sales tax.  I know that they say the Fusion drive is a lot faster on 2013 models but some of the speed tests I reviewed online showed the 2012 i7 and 2013 i7 very close on speed for both storage and processing.  Any thoughts?
    I don't like changing batteries so I would buy a separate Apple keyboard with numeric pad since it only comes with wireless keyboard.  I'm a trackpad enthusiast having been using my macbook pro trackpad with current set up; and I am prepared to buy the Apple trackpad and replace batteries every 2 months but I would greatly prefer USB connection and rechargeable trackpact.  I know Logitech makes one so if anyone is using and knows how it compares to Apple's I'm all ears. 

    <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5891>
    You can use USB for the Apple trackpad.

  • What's the best way to output a high quality ready to send to the printer PDF?

    I'm designing a photo book for a friend and we're having output issues. We're working with a professional printer but for some reason our prints keep coming out soft or pixelated. The images are 300 dpi and formatted correctly for an InDesign document so the issue is likely output.
    What's the best way to output the HIGHEST quality PDF you can out of InDesign? Everyone seems to have different answers.
    Thanks in advance!

    Check a couple things.
    One would be for broken links. If there are broken links then ID will use the preview image instead of the linked image.
    Another would be to select an image that prints poorly in the Links Panel and check the effective resolution. If it is below your stated 300 dpi then the image has been enlarged greater than 100%.
    Then just use the PDF/X-4 profile for your PDF.

  • What is the best way to Sync Digital Output(TTL) with Analog Output?

    I am trying to generate Analog waveform that synchronize the rising edge of a digital signal(TTL). The ttl will be used as trigger for camera. The board I have is USB-6343X. In my draft,  I used a clock as ttl so I can tune frequency easily. Could any one tell me what's the best way to accomplish such task? My draft seems working, but I hope there's more neat way. Thanks in advance for any help!
    Kind regards,
    Eric

    Hi Econg,
    You should be able to trigger your TTL output with the analog output by using the ao/StartTrigger as your trigger source on the counter task. You wouldn't have to have the extra Get Full Terminal Name.vi in your analog output task.
    Here is an example using your modified code. You will have to change the cDAQ1/ao/StartTigger to *your device*/ao/StartTrigger, but it should then trigger the counter output at the exact time when the analog output starts.
