Why does the UI editor not permit setting size_t / ssize_t?

Programmatically it's possible to set VAL_SIZE_T, VAL_SSIZE_T, ..., VAL_INTPTR_T, VAL_UINTPTR_T...

I am not sure what kind of example you expect...
I have an integer variable representing the number of recorded events of a measurement; in the 32 bit version this is limited to 4*10^9 events which can be a restriction. So for computers running a 64 bit system I'd like to extend it to larger numbers; hence I replaced int by ssize_t and want to dispay this number in a table cell.
This is the same transformation that was applied to most CVI library routines in 2010, e.g. PlotXY now expects ssize_t for the number of points to plot.
This issue has been already discussed March 2010 with respect to numeric controls here, but it seems that nothing has changed for the better the last four years - the UI editor is still useless in such cases

  • Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

    I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

    It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

    Does it even really matter...?
    Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
    Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

  • Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs.

    Why does the iphone 5 not sync the correct artwork to songs. All the artwork is correct in the itunes 11 library, but when sync'd the iphone arbittary chooses what it wants

    My guess is you are using iTunes Match.
    iTunes Match is a great feature, but I suggest keeping it on only on your computer.  Turn iTunes Match off on your iPhone at Settings > Music > iTunes Match.  Then sync your iPhone and you should get all the artwork.  You may have to sync two or three times to get it all after turning off iTunes Match.

    I suspect that your 2 decimal place numbers are formatted as text. Change the format of the column to currency and see it that works.

  • Why does the new version not have back-up disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Why does the new version of i-tunes not have back-up to disc in the library file? And how do I fix it?

    Fast backup for iTunes library  (Windows)
    Grab SyncToy  2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time.
    If your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes, regardless of the drive letter or path it appears on.
    Step-by-step guide to using SyncToy.

  • When I send a group email why does the address bar not present the names alphabetically?

    I frequently send emails to groups.  Sometimes, for one reason or another, I want to delete one or more contacts from the list that appears in the address bar.  Why does the list not  appear in alphabetical order and is there any way that I can edit my contact lists to make it do so? It means picking through a list one by one rather than scrolling down a list to find a contact in the correct order. 

    Basically I suggest you keep using Eudora.
    Like most of those moving now, they are unlikely to be happy with anything else. But then that is to be expected, you have clung to abondonware for 5+ years after it's replacement. People that dedicated are unlikely to be happy with anything else.
    The Business standard and professionalism are not based on the Eudora way of things. I suggest you stick undisclosed-recipients: into a google search box and get instructions on how to do things for all the major mail clients.
    Of note Thunderbird displays nothing in the To field, even though the undisclosed-recipients: is inserted in the outgoing mail.
    <blockquote>
    I have tried using Bcc, and indeed, the recipients are suppressed, but not as a group. I have to change every recipient address from To: to Bcc: manually.
    </blockquote>
    Perhaps if you use the buttons at the bottom of the contact pane to add the list to BCC you would not have to manually change anything. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/addressing-email#w_selecting-the-entries-from-the-contact-pane
    I am interested however how when you added a list so it appears on multiple lines. All I see is he list name until after I press the send button and look at it in the sent folder.
    Most people use another address entirely in the to:, in conjunction with the BCC list. It verifies the list mail is sent by coming back and you can put whatever you like in the display name of the email address.

  • Why does the new Quicktime NOT play my old MOV files?

    Hi Folks.
    I'm using the lasted updated Yosemite on a 3-year old iMac.
    Back in my early iMac days (3 years ago), I imported my camcorder's AVCHD files
    into iMove or Final Cut Express and converted them to Quicktime MOV files.
    Turns out they were rendered by Apple or Final Cut into MOV files using the
    Apple Intermediate codec.  I had no choice over this.
    Until I upgraded to Yosemite, I was able to preview any of these movies
    very easily in the Finder.  Simply highlight the movie, press the spacebar,
    and it opens, in a real-time, real-size screen, with a simple play-pause button
    in the progress bar at the bottom.  Never had a problem with any previous
    Mac OS.
    Now when I click on the file in the finder, instead of a movie preview, I get a
    big, silent QT "Mov" icon that just sits there looking silly.
    I double click it to open it up in Quicktime, and it attempts to go through this
    lengthy conversion process, taking at least as long as the movie is in minutes,
    then asking me if I want to save this new "converted" version.
    Fortunately, I have an old version of Quicktime 7 on my Mac, and QT 7 opens it
    and plays it no problem.  No "conversion" necessary.  No cumbersome and
    space-hogging needs to create a "cloned" copy, just so the new, lame version
    of Quicktime can play it.
    What's up, Apple?  AIC was YOUR codec that YOUR SOFTWARE chose to
    transcode into.  Now, your new Quicktime does NOT support this codec?
    And your old version does?  And why might THAT be?
    Really, this is so elementary.  This is not rocket science.  Just like JPG images
    not displaying properly in Mac Mail now.  It begs the question "why" ...?
    I mean, for the elementary preview abilities that always made Mac such a
    friendly computer ... *uh* ... where is that?
    And here we go, wasting hours of time, looking for fixes that should not
    have to be "fixed"...
    Did I miss something?  Or did you?

    Aeclay: here's a couple of ideas.  And an answer to your earlier post.
    Basically two options to work with here:
    Store the files as native AVCHD files... OR
    Convert the files to Quicktime
    I keep two archives of my AVCHD recordings, partly for backup, and partly for Sony's ability to archive nicely in it's own native format on it's PC-friendly utility called "PMB".  (came wtih both my NEX and ALPHA cameras).   I have an old PC that I use for my complete archive; Sony's PMB utility works only on PC's and will do a good job both of archiving, providing a thumbnail database, and re-writing your choice to removable media in it's typical Sony hierarchy.
    If you've only got Mac's, you can still archive your AVCHD recordings; copy them to folders named or organized to your own spec's.   AVCHD is a high-quality compression format, and they'll take up way less disk space than converted Quicktime MOV files.   You can open and play all AVCHD movies quite easily with VLC player.
    The only extra trick to be aware of here is this.  The only reason you would need to preserve the intact "sony" folders (named "AVCHD" / "BMDV" etc) is is you were using Adobe Premiere as a video editor.  Somehow, it needs the hierarchical folder stuff in place to properly index the files.  Not mandatory, but helpful if  you are a Premiere user.  Otherwise, forget the weird "package" folders; just right-click (ctrl-click) on them, choose "view package contents" and MOVE the MTS files out of the Sony hierarchy for permanent storage.  Use VLC player to open and view them.
    From that point on,  you have control over how you manage the files and what intermediate or end-user format you convert them to for your own use.
    I'm not clear on your other question about the files that add the word "converted" on.  Of course Mac will convert to Quicktime MOV files.  Not sure what codec they're using now, likely H.264.  Anyway, don't bother converting.  It'll take up a lot of time and waste a lot of disk space.
    ps. I just found this free utility on the internet.  It's called "MTS CONVERTER". I have not tried it, but it claims to be able to convert all AVCHD files to various useable formats.
    Good luck!  (and happy Valentine's Day!)
