Control of the cursor on the graphs

Hello

In my testbend to the experience and I want to add some graphics facilities on a chart.

For example, taking a snapshot below; IWant to see the location of the Xa and Xb points on the graph at the bottom.

After reading a few posts, I undestood that the best solution for this kind of thing is using the sliders.

If this is the case, I need to add a slider 2 (in emissions way, if possible) and then control them using some clues.

There are some examples that show how do.

Thank you.

PS Ce would be as well to "bulbs" on the location of the points.

> It would be as well to "bulbs" on the location of the points.

That is the question for the OR. You can select cursor point style, but you cannot change its size. When you change the size of the cursor, it affects only the thickness of line to cursor and you can get only big vertical cross, not just any what piont of style as you do with graphics. At least, LV2011, may be they fixed that in 5 years seems sufficient.

  • Satellite Pro 6100: cursor moves out of control on the screen

    Hey guys,.

    I'm seriously going crazy right about now... my problem is the following:

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro 6100, Windows XP Professional with SP2, memory: 512 MB.

    About two weeks ago my cursor began to move up and down whenever I pressed the space bar. It has gotten worse since. My cursor moves out of control across the screen (there are usually in the upper right or lower left) and I can not recover. I know for a fact that it has nothing to do with my external mouse (optical), because this problem also occurs when I use my pointing device. Even in safe mode.

    The thing I've tried:
    Ran Spybot: Search and Destroy
    Ran Adaware
    Xoftspy RAN
    A ran Symantic Antivirus 10 (complete analysis of the system in safe mode)
    New keyboard
    New motherboard

    Nothing helps. I'm this close to format my pc. Does anyone have a suggestion of what to do?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I put t he understand. You have changed the keyboard and the motherboard, but you did not recover the OS with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    The first procedure that you should do is the new installation of the OS before you change or replace anything on the laptop.

    Unfortunately, it is not easy to say why it occurs. A friend of mine has a similar problem with the cursor. The cursor has jumped on the screen and it was not possible to open applications. It has (or service) resolved with the replacement of keyboard.

    If the new installation OS doesn't fix this strange cursor, so I recommend you contact Toshiba.

  • See the line between cursors on a graph

    Hello

    I have a graph simple intensity with two sets of sliders on it, called 1 and 2 cursor cursor.  I would like to make a distinction between the sliders so that when the user moves a cursor can see a line superimposed on the graph.  Please see the attachment where 1 cursor is green and cursor 2 is purple.  I used Paint to draw the black line on the graph that I want to add.  Thank you!

    Steve

    Looks like you have a graph of intensity. Easier would be e to use the overlay "draw pictures.

    A simple example is shown here.

    Of course, in your situation, you get the coordinates of the cursor to set the line. For example, use an event 'move cursor' to recalculate.

  • HP 520-1165a TouchSmart desktop PC, touchscreen random takes control of the cursor

    When you "touch"touch screen, a small diamond seems to take the place of the mouse cursor, correct."

    I have a problem with my PC, if the cursor of the mouse is in use, the touch diamond screen will be "pop up" and take control of the cursor at random intervals, interupting what I was doing at the time, or automatically the link located in the center of the screen at the time of opening.

    The "pop up" diamond is always in the same 2 places, for the most part, dead center of the screen, but occasionally also appears at the bottom left of the screen by opening the menu of windows automatically.

    In this case the on screen keyboard tab also appears on the side of the screen.

    By clicking on the mouse takes control back to the mouse cursor, but it gets very frustrating because it can occur more than once in an hour and becomes increasingly more regular.

    I had this same problem about a year ago and was covered by my warranty from suppliers, but it took 6 weeks for delivery - repair - return of my PC and I don't want to wait that long again. They had to reinstall my whole system and all information, downloads etc... have been lost. Fortunately I got the majority of my backup files, but it was still a pain to restore all when it's obviously a problem with this PC.

    I love my HP PC and no other issues with performance. It's my player of social media, my music player, my movie player, my full entertainment system, and this insidious problem is purely a gene.

    I very rarely use the touchscreen function, is possible to dissengage this feature to possibly fix my problem?

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Yours Sincerely

    NB: Yes, I cleaned the screen, and no, it's not a random flying insect, activation of the touch screen (although this happens :-))

  • Control the properties of the graph of a waveform for waveform table.

    I'm to customize a waveform graph.  I will have no problem using nodes property to define all the things I need to (color plot, the names of axes, etc...).  My wave form is actually an array that contains the seven waveforms.  The problem is that the property of the waveform graph node changes only trace, legend, etc. the first signal in the graph.  They all have the chart perfectly together.  However, my application requires the user to be able to select say signals 2, 5 and 7 of the table.  When it does, it receives signals of 2, 5 and 7 on the chart, but the legend Watch reports 1, 2 and 3 and they draw in the colours of the signals 1, 2 and 3.  Any suggestions on the update of the properties of several plots of a waveform graph?

    Also when I want 1 signal trace a curve of waveform.  When I want the signals from 2 to 7, I have to draw a second copy of the curve of waveform.  For some reason any a waveform table chart cannot double as a unique waveform graph.  Any ideas on that?  Thanks in advance for your help.

    To change the properties of other signals in the chart, you will need to set the ActivePlot property node before writing the color, the name of legend, etc... To display only the selected signals, you could do a couple different things.

    (1) set the color of the signals that are not visible by transparency

    (2) write NaN values to the curve of waveform of the signal that you do not want to display

  • How to control of the screen with a list of scroll-able patch?

    It's probably something simple I'm missing.

    I would like to have control of the screen that displays a scroll-able list of all patches in my Concert.

    Usually, our band adheres to the order of our list, and I can increment/decrement my way through the list.

    But there will always be exceptions for last minute or queries or other changes.

    I would like a list scroll-measurement of the patches with visible in large enough performance mode fonts so that I can find and select in the right order quickly, without going to Edit mode and set my old eyes strain to try to read the list of the patches.

    I found this post looking for an answer to the same question, so I'm probably not much help (it would be really nice to scroll the list of patches with a hardware cursor!).

    I play in a band where the set lists change constantly (or we take queries on the fly), so I just keep all my patches (i.e. song titles) in alphabetical order. A little something (you may already know), is that if you are in 'Edit' mode, type the first letters of the name of the patch to it.

    I suspect it's one of those situations where there no place for developers some weird people would actually over a hundred patches in a concert.

  • Right-click on the graph that is not possible to select «visible items»

    Hello

    I have a problem with a graphic. I use the same type of chart in two different projects.

    But only in a single project, I can right click on the graph that shows a popup to 'the visible elements' where I can show/hide legend cursor for example.

    Is there a mode that prevents right-clicking on the graph?

    I can only change visible elements when the program is stopped and not while it is running.

    Thanks for help

    Or maybe you have unchecked the "allow default run-time contextual menus" in the appearance of window customize?

  • TO RESET THE GRAPH AND TABLE SEQUENCE EVEN STRUCTURE IS NOT EXECUTED.

    Hello everyone, I made this vi which runs automatically at the beginning and I can't use my power butoon to control this vi.

  • Double digital precision control using the D:H:M format has problem increment/decrement

    I have a VI that allows users to define the range of dates in a control, and it does not work as it should.  Specifically, the control is the standard digital control of the modern palette, this is the data type is Double, and it is in the format % <%D:%H:%M> t.  The problem is that when I have the cursor in the hours (two digits highlighted), when I use the keyboard keys arrow up and down or buttons increase/decrease control, instead of the increment or decrement, the minutes.  When I have the cursor over the days, the inc/dec intervenes on the hours.  Has no way to increase/decrease the days in the control either.  In addition, if the cursor the cursor in the line rather than a selection, changing values are the values to the right of the cursor on the line - even the opposite of the features of LabVIEW with other digital formats.

    In addition, the left-right arrow keys won't move the selection / cursor in the control, except to spend hours to days - no other movement is possible.

    Is this a known issue?  I'm the see in 2010 SP1 and LV LV 2012

    I have attached a VI composed solely of misconduct control.

    In addition, I tried digital controls system palettes, classic and Express and they do the same thing (or worse).

    I guess at this point, I'll need to use separate controls for each field, the event handlers for the arrows, etc., but the complexity which adds is almost painful.  If anyone has another idea, I'm all ears.

    Thank you,

    Erik

    took an hour and built a work around for the problem.  No was not as bad as I thought originally that are curious differences between the Terminal command, local variables and value - namely, the Value property is the value after the event, while others have the value of pre-event for the control.  This always works for my application.

    This version is in LV 2010 SP1, which is as far as I can go.

    Here's a very quick project on what you could do.

    Of course, you could also extract the headers and place them in the rings for a natural selection more. Only parties with controls belongs in a loop if users should be able to select the columns dynamically. You must also analyze the column time differently. Modify if needed.

  • How to trace the temperature and voltage using the graph of Mixed Signal

    Hello

    I use the NOR cDAQ-9178, module NI 9214 (temperature) and the module NI 9201 (voltage). My program allows the user to choose among 3 different tasks, Masurement of temperature, voltage, or both. When you select the task for temperature and voltage measurement, I was drawing all channels on the same graph. I was invited to separate channels of temperature and voltage and draw on a split graph, using the same category axis. I tried stacking, but could not control where each parcel channel went. I think the Mixed Signal graph would work well. Everything works and records all the data of the channels to the files, but my plots appear not on the graph, although I can see the change in scale numbers. I think I can use the cluster incorrectly. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I selected the 'Plot Visible' option, but the plot is not always displayed. I've attached a zip with all the screws needed to run my program. The main VI is "Voltage_Temperature_SingleTask_Measurements_MAIN.vi"... but everything must be downloaded to the program works. Please help... Thank you.

    Hi mzhlb,

    Why not use simple IndexArray function to get bots waveforms of your waveform table? (I faked it your DAQmxRead with functions SigGen).

  • Export the graph to image: a few questions

    A few questions.

    (1) what does export average image "simplified"?

    (2) the invoke node export the Image export the image or simplified?

    (3) export the image to a .eps file, what I get is a picture of real vector graphic?

    Thank you

    (1) simplified - essentially data plots in graphical format, - without control shadows, white background, solid black grid lines. Try to copy it to the Clipboard, paste into paint, you'll see.

    (2) export Image - simplified (only for graphics). Get the picture - picture of the graph (any control)

    (3) generally labview does not know the vector graphic images, and maybe that this exception, since it is simplified to the rowset.

  • data is plotted on the graph of absolute time delay

    Hi all

    I'm plot data on a graph of absolute time and I find 2 hours difference between the data displayed by the debugger (left) and data on the graph (X - SCALE AUTO).

    The time saved in ptTime, was acquired by using the function 'time' and the PC has Amsterdam, Berlin, Rome as time zone.

    Here, under a screen shot that implemented the code, the debugger and the result.

    The debugger is also showing the version in good time!

    Can anyone suggest me how to process data in order to have the same result on the debugger window and on the graph?

    A big thank you and best regards

    Sergio

    Question: in the CVI debugger show you, the time_t variable appears as a double, while its definition in 'time.h' is ' typedef unsigned int time_t; "so I am a little confused.

    Response: I did something nonsense in this screenshot: I took a variable of type double (it happened to be a UIDateTime, actually) and configured the debugger to format as if it were a time_t variable. The formatted values that the debugger shows me, therefore, are not valid, of course. But I just wanted to show the time_t format, because it corresponds to what you have in your screenshot, and I was already suspicious that you use time_t variable to pass to the curve.

    Furthermore, if you are not familiar with the way in which you can change the formatting in the debugger, this is how you do it:

    Usually, the debugger can automatically pick the best format to use, based on the data type of the variable (for example, with variables of time_t). But in this case, what the debugger calls a variable "Date Time" is all just a double. The debugger cannot assume that you want to display all your double variables as a 'Date Time', and so you need to replace yourself.

    Question: I was not able to find UIDateTime using the ICB type, this is the value returned by GetCurrentDateTime(double *)?

    Response: There is really no such thing as a type of data "UIDateTime". I've been a bit remiss with my terminology. Unfortunately, when you're dealing with dates and hours, there are several possible representations of these quantities in the world of C, and it is important that you use the correct the intended variant you use for. In this case, the chart controls expect that you pass the time format used by the library of user interface, that is, one that is returned by the GetCurrentDateTime or MakeDateTime functions. The underlying C for this representation of the time data type is simply twice, and so it is not a good name to refer to it. That is why I used UIDateTime, but I should have been clearer than that.

    Question: Y at - it a function to convert time_t values UIDateTime values

    Response: Yes. You can use the functions of the programmer's Toolbox following two, in exactly this order:

    CVIAbsoluteTimeFromCVIANSITime (time_t ansiTime, CVIAbsoluteTime * absTime);

    CVIAbsoluteTimeToCVIUILTime (CVIAbsoluteTime absTime, double * uilTime);

    I've searched for a while but cudnt find a solution. I showed a chart on the chart. Now, I want to show the numerical values of the

    Searching on the forum I found, it can be done with waveform graph. We can do with graphics as well? In Microsoft excel, the option is there for that.

  • Vi transitional measure displayed in the graph of the wave are moving outside the scale

    With the help of a graph of a waveform to display the pressure over time. I wanted to be able to calculate the time to drop in pressure over time, so I use the vi transitional measure. I copied what was exactly in the example for the measurement of transition inside help and it is correctly determine when to transition down, but I'm having a problem with the cursors in waveform graph. I would like to see a set of greenery along the fall time start and end time of fall as pictured, I have attached the vertical sliders (capture2) as in the example. The problem is the two always begin to 3.43 (capture1) and after each sampling period they (4.34, 5.34, 6.34) increment him come right out of all of the output of transition as these numbers measure. The period of the signal that I am interested is always less than 2 seconds, so I never see the vertical sliders.

    I tried replacing it by my signal daq with an sine wave signal generator and it does the same thing.

    The block diagram is in the first capture

    also, I would be interested to know exactly how the numbers wired to the cursor property active of the property of a waveform graph node toward real sliders on the chart. They are just automatically numbered starting at 0 from the top down?

    Wayland

    Hi Wayland,

    The sliders are still apparent in the example VI for the transitional Measurement.vi, is because the generated signal is always set to zero. Thus, signal resets a 'new' signal for the sliders to move and therefore always on the same location a bit. The waveform graph is also configured so that it won't move or continue to show new incoming data, data sliders have moved on. So in your case, you want to click with the right button on the chart and make sure that "Ignore Time Stamp" is not checked/selected. This will make it so the graph continues with your incoming data and cursors. You can check it in the example file by removing the constant True is the generator of signals and change the mentioned time stamp option previously.

    In order to view the available sliders as well as their position numbered, you can right-click in the waveform graph and select Properties. In the Properties window, there is a tab of cursors, inside this tab at the top is a drop-down menu that lists all available sliders, indexed starting with 0 at the top.
