By the way a generic Cluster to a VI

I was wondering how you create a VI that can take any element of cluster or data as a control?  For example, the "write to the binary", "seizure" takes any type of data.  How do you do this in your own screws?

Thank you.

Christopher,

the mentioned screw are polymorphic.

You might be interested in this white paper.

Please note the following passage:

Do not instead of the screw polymorphic variants in situations where data types can be determined at design time. Polymorphic screws make the code cleaner and faster and requires less runtime error checking.

If your question can be "solved" by one of the following options:

-Polymorphic vIs

-Variant

Flatten/unflatten to string

- ...

hope this helps,

Norbert

  • How can I browse the labels of a cluster as if they were listed?

    It is possible to loop through the labels of a cluster like this:

    However, it forces me to manually maintain the chains in the structure of the case.

    Is there a way to get these labels of cluster in the structure of the case at the time of the design, similar to the use of an enum?  They're right there!

    Unfortunately not.

    You can think to use a different data structure.  If they are all the same type of data, perhaps a table works best for you.

    Another method would be to use the attributes of variant to hold the items of your cluster.  You can search for items in a variant of name it.

  • Changing a property of an indicator of the chain in a cluster with a sub - VI

    I know that the issue of the update of an indicator on a first level VI of a Subvi has been requested before on the discussion Forum, but my question is slightly different, because I want to update the property of an indicator, not necessarily its value.

    In my first level VI, I have a group that contains some indicators of the chain.  The cluster is a typedef.

    I want to change the background color of the indicator for red or green of my sub - VI string so that it looks like this:

    Creating a reference to the cluster and move to the Subvi do not seem to work.  I'm not able to see the Text.BGColor property to change the background color of the string indicators:

    It seems that the creation of a reference to a string indicator and switch to the Subvi might work like this:

    Is there a way to better/more elegant to do this? Do I have to create a reference of string for each string in my cluster and send it to my sub - VI?

    I've messed around with global variables, but not luck.

    Plese help.

    You have the right idea.  The cluster reference has a property called [orders].  Which returns an array of references to all the controls in your cluster.  Indexing of those who have properties BGColor, that you need.

  • How can I get the size of a Cluster in bytes?

    I want to get the value of a cluster size, and I found the function "Get variant attribute" I think that to do this,

    but I can't find in the documentation http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361D-01/glang/get_variant_attribute/

    Anyone would provide the values of the attribute name that can receive?

    And it's right to get this function I need or there is another way?

    Hi Marco,.

    GetVariantAttribute may not give you the size of a cluster - it will just give you the a variant attributes!

    You can create attributes with any name (but a non-empty string)...

    Why should you get the size of a cluster?

    Perhaps you could serialize to a string and get the length of the string. Or type in a table of U8 conversion and get the arraysize...

  • I was entering numbers in a table of existing pages and suddenly the formatting has changed and I can't type numbers the way I need too.  How to fix this?

    I was entering numbers in a chart in Pages to update the information and all of a sudden the cells do not have the formatting that I want.  It's changing the way numbers which I type them, and I don't know why or what to do?

    Hi Slf@LF,

    Numbers and pages are trying to be smart and recognize wht kind of data that you enter. If you enter something that resembles a date they will treat it as such. Some people have problems with serial numbers because programs to format their numbers and not text.

    View the data that you are trying to enter and how it's changed and we ca probably to understand what is happening to her.

  • Am I able to configure a wireless iMac keyboard to emulate the way a Windows keyboard responds to a depression of the DELETE keys and BACKSPACE?

    Am I able to configure a wireless iMac keyboard to emulate the way a Windows keyboard responds to a depression of the DELETE keys and BACKSPACE? I want to delete either to the left right GOLD of the cursor. By pressing the DELETE key on Mac does remove one way, but I want the ability to delete in both directions. The Windows keyboard provides a delete key to remove to the right and a key to return back to remove to the left. So I can configure an iMac for this keyboard? My thought is to keep the delete key as it is and ADD a new function to one of the function keys to delete characters to the left. Thanks for your time and your help.

    Mac can go both ways, in case this is useful.  You can use fn more delete to delete to the right.  Also control more.

    Start Safe Mode removes the system caches that can help.

    Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

    1. Start or restart your Mac.
    2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
    3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

    After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

    To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

    Then try to update iTunes.

  • You can change the way that you scroll up and down pages.have just installed the new update from apple and the way in which you have to scroll through the pages in firefox has c

    After you have installed the latest version of the software update apple has changed the way you scroll through the pages. I would like to consider to have a box at the top and bottom of the screen that you use for scrolling. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    On Mac, scroll bars may be hidden and are showing them when you scroll down the page, so you can see the current scroll position.

    The idea is that a Tablet is used that does not need to be visible and therefore more screen real estate for the navigation area, scroll bars.

    You can make scroll bars always appear:

    System Preferences > General > Show Scroll Bar > Choose "Always"
