Why are LabView Graphics so sloooooow?

Why does it take so long to load an application onto a PC even if it is only a single panel with a few dials and gauges.
And then after it is loaded, if I click a button with a mouse I'm not really sure if it has registered the action.
I have built applications of similar graphical complexity in either Delphi or Visual C and they load and run much much faster than a typical LabView app.
It sometimes seems that unless I have a CRAY sitting in my Lab the application is never going to start!
Anyone got any suggestion to speed it up?

Hi,
Here are some ideas. Without seeing your application, it's the best I can
do...
If your UI/MMI/CHI is reacting slow, you might need to put a Wait (ms) in
your while loop(s). If you don't, the loops take 100% processor time, and
there is no time to handle the UI properly.
The only reason (I can think of) why loading might be slow, is that you have
large default values.
Overlapping controls or indicators dramatically slow down the updating.
Boolean array, esp. 2d, are just slow.
Regards,
Wiebe.

Why are the graphics/page in facebook suddenly smaller font and images? Is not happening in IE and screen resolution is correct.

Why are the graphics/page in facebook suddenly smaller font and images? Is not happening in IE and screen resolution is correct.

I heard back from Nike+ support and they said that there will be newer pics soon and it also appears that this corrected itself for my runs, but not the user pic, I only get girly options, I wouldn't mind a picture of a guy on 'ROIDS!!! Just kidding, but something less feminine or cartoon like, I'm trying to be serious about this and the site should reflect that.

Why are line graphics not showing up in Preview Mode when they show in Normal view mode?

I am using CS4, I've used InDesign for 4 years. I can not figure out why this is happening...
From the Tools panel, I am using the line and circle tools. Drawing lines (arrows) and circles on my document, with a stroke weight of 1. The lines are the top item on my page, the last thing I draw. I draw lines that would go over not only other graphics, but over text as well.
Problem is that they only show up in Normal view, not Preview view. Hence, I don't think they will show up on the final document.
I've used these tools often, and the lines not showing is a new problem. Can anyone shed some light on why this might be happening?
Thanks, Louise

I looked and yes "nonprinting" was ticked in the Attributes panel. THANK YOU :-)
I knew there had to be a simple solution and I was so frustrated it was eluding me.
Thanks again.

Why are the Graphics on Nike+ site almost all female, even for the guys?

I was just wondering if I am doing something wrong. I signed up for NIKE+ and set all of my settings correct in MY ACCOUNT, made sure MALE was checked, but for some reason the only place where there is a male graphic is on the SET GOALS screen, but my goals are tracked by a woman running across the top of the screen. It doesn't bother me that much, but the user picture is only female as well and that does bother me. It sort of goes against the apple concept similar to iLife "Personalize Your Life" which apparently the NIKE+ site does not offer. I think apple might need to get in bed with nike a few more times a week and knock her up to get the point across that the consumer should have choice, and a lot of it.

Why are the graphics cards in macbook pro's so weak?

Considering the price of a macbook pro, why is it they don't offer anything more than intel iris graphics or a 750m? That's the only thing holding me back from getting a macbook pro. I like to game, and those 2 just aren't enough for the kind of gaming I do.

Why are LabVIEW 8 projects so big (installer dir contais about 70MB) after the build.

Dear wire workers
I got my LV 8 and played around with it.
The new project is a great enhancement but one thing realy is nearly amazing.
In LV 5 a app buid of a comparable project was 5MB.
In LV 7.1.1 about 10MB and in LV 8 about 70MB.
For what?
I just user nearly the same functionalities.
One thing that separates the 7.1.1 projects from the 8 is that you can not longer
chose witch part of the runtime you want to use. The only Option in the settings
is full. So I have to take all or nothing.
That makes it nearly impossible to post my app. to the customer by e-mail.
Is anyone out there with a hint to avoid such a big installer?
With kind regards

The Run Time engine is indeed larger with LV 8. I expect it will grow
with every new release to accomidate the new features, and there's a
lot of those with 8.
The application builder is actually more configurable with 8. Look at
the "Additional Installer", section of the builder and make sure
nothing is selected that doesn't need to be. It looks like 60-70 meg is
going to be the minimum size if you include the RTE with the
application. Remember, you only need to do this once as Altenbach said.
Make multiple build settings if you want. One with the installer and
RTE, one with just the installer, I even make one that doesn't include
an installer, just the executable.
For one project I'm working on, I get total sizes of:
App installer + RTE = 67MB
App installer = 9MB
Just .exe = 2MB
Make sure to explore all the settings to all teh good from the builder you can.

Why are the graphics in the book The Extraordinary Leader so small?

Just recently downloaded the book The Extraordinary Leader. All of figures in the book are to tiny. Is the a new update to this book that can fix this?

You need to get in touch with the publisher of the book and alert them to the problem, like I did here. They should be able to update the book after which you can then redownload.

Why Are Stills/Graphics Shaking After Export in Premiere Pro?

Working with CS5.5, my exported video is showing the still-graphic with a weird shimmering effect. I need help resolving this issue ASAP.
Original video is AVCHD but the video seems to be OK. It's only the titling and and other graphics that do not contain motion.
Other details:
- The final output to the preset 1080p 29.97 HQ selection. Also tried the Youtube HD preset and same thing happened.
- Using Windows, ASUS machine
- No other boxes selected in the export window
- Some of the graphics were created in AE, but others were just text using the Premiere titling feature
I have seen this problem in the past on occasion with other computers and have never been able to understand the issue.
Please help. Thanks!

I don't know if this will help, but I would recommend using 1920 x 1080 with Square Pixels.

Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?

Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?
My coworkers and I are not seeing a animation in the preview pane in Adobe Bridge CS6 even when clicking the play button in the preview window. However, we do see a graphic of the first frame and one person sees 1 frame when clicking play and one other frame and then the animation stops, however, that is not the complete animation.
I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
My coworkers are using a mac.
One coworker has apple OS Mountain Lion with a Intel Quad-Core Xeon – 64 bit system.
Is this fixable or in the works as a patch? Otherwise we have to open these docs in a browser in order to view them properly.

I've just come to the realization that some animated gifs do play fine and others do not. A coworker of mine suggests that if it's an animation made via Adobe Photoshop, it'll work in bridge but will not if it's made using something else.

Why are my iTunes and iPhoto crashing every time I try to open them?

Why are my iphoto and itunes crashing every time I open them? This is a new problem on my Mac Mini. Have the latest software on my Mac Mini and the latest iLife sotware. My mac mini is about 5 years old, always kept up to date.

Hello Majorie,
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Also, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive?
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.

Why are people so crazy about XML publisher?

Why are people so crazy about XML publisher? Maybe there are things I am not aware of, but with the exception of adding the ability to export to Excel from EBS, or having a template for a letter in which a few things will change from copy to copy, I don't see a huge advantage to using it.
Reports is such a powerful tool and creates so much flexibility in creating graphical documents. Things that are so easy to do in reports, from my experience, is extremely difficult to impossible in XML publisher. In publisher, you have to do a lot of logic yourself that reports would do for you just by saying Yes or No to a property.
When I first learned about XML publisher, I was really excited about learning to use it. But when I saw how difficult it is to do simple tasks, and how much you have to reinvent the wheel, I became really disappointed. There are lots of examples on the web about how to do this or how to do that with it, but honestly they seem to show you how to go to a lot of trouble to accomplish something that is easy in reports.
People seem to want to avoid bitmapped reports like the plague, but I think they are extremely underrated.
What do you guys think? Am I missing something? I would like to hear other opinions and perspectives.
Thanks,
Kurz

Why does Labview allow a cursor in a indicator?

Hello,
Why does Labview allow the user to position the cursor with the mouse inside a numeric indicator? Users think that just because they can put a cursor they should be able to type something and enter data. Is there a way to disable/stop the user from putting the cursor in a numeric indicator?
Regards,
Kaspar
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Disabling the indicator satisfies your requirements, but this is funnier. It would be even better if I calculated the position of the indicator and the "entry point" and just kept the mouse from entering, but I have a project to finish...

Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width?

Why are my images scrolling from outside the Page width? I am positive i has all the settings correct, to have an image parallax scroll from the edge of the page into the page and out again. But the images are flying in from the browser width - not the page width. This is not the effect I am after.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? Given the key position is only linked to the height, I can't for the life of me work out how to ensure the images start moving from a certain position onthe left and right of the page.
Thanks

I think the effect you are seeing is a result of how the lineHeight is set up. By default, the lineHeight will be calculated as 120% of the size of the largest thing on the line -- in your case, this is the inline graphic. This is designed to leave space between the line before and the line with the graphic. So it is taking the height of the graphic, multiplying by 120%, and making this the distance between the previous line and the line with the graphic. So the bigger the graphic, the bigger the space above the graphic. Normally this works well with text, but in this case you may want to get closer to "set solid". You can do this by setting the lineHeight to 100%. Or you may wish to leave a couple of percent for the descenders of the previous line. Or, another alternative that may work well for you if you really know exactly where you want the line set, you could measure the graphic, add on the number of extra pixels to leave for the descenders, and make the lineHeight a constant. So you could do something like this:
<img lineHeight="104%" height="411"/>
or this:
<img lineHeight="423" height="411"/>
Obviously you would still need to specify the source and any other parameters you want on the image.
Note that if you are trying to fit a 200 pixel high graphic into a 200 pixel high container, you will hit the same problem -- in order to fit the graphic, the container will have to be slightly bigger than the graphic in order to fit the descenders on the last line. This is true even if the last line contains only the graphic, and no descenders (or text) at all.
Hope this helps,

Why does my graphic drop out as a pdf?

I created 4 graphics in Illustrator CS3, downloaded them onto a CD cover template and saved as an .ai file which looks fine. When I attempt to then save it as a pdf, one of the graphics drops out. Appreciate your feedback.

When I click on Windows, 'Links' is not checked off. When I click on
'Links' and open the panel, all 4 graphics are listed but there are no icons to
the right of these file names.
