Create Non-volatile step properties in TestStand

Hi Ppl,

I created a type of stage custom, which has a void edit step. The step of void edit allows the user to create custom stage properties. For example, the user will be able to create properties such as step.custom_property. These properties are volatile, which means once you close the file in sequence, they are lost. Are there

anyway to retain the properties of the step even after saving them?

Thank you

Sirot

Sirot,

Another way to add properties with an instance of the step is to add a container of unstructure property the definition of step type.  You will add then all your custom properties under the ownership of unstructure container.  For example, in the definition of step type, you can add a property's container and call the CustomProperties.   Right-click on the CustomProperties property and select Properties.  In the Properties dialog box, click the Advanced button and select flags. In the flags dialog box, check the indicator PropFlags_UnstructuredProperty and check the option "Reset Flags in all loaded Instances of the Type" and click OK in all the dialog boxes.  Modify the module for the lower level edit add custom under Step.CustomProperties properties.  Don't forget increment the counter to change the movie file.  Save and reopen the file of the sequence should persist custom properties.

  • Drag and drop to create a custom step

    Hello

    I have an insert in my custom user interface palette. I want to allow the user to drag the step of the palette of insertion in the original designer of the sequence, as the Insert palette. The insert custom palette is in WPF.

    The data format for the object slide - déposer is

    e.Data.GetFormats)
    {string [1]}
    [0]: "SeqEditor new Step binary.

    The data is actually a MemoryStream:

    e.Data.GetData (e.Data.GetFormats () [0])
    {System.IO.MemoryStream}
    Base {System.IO.Stream}: {System.IO.MemoryStream}
    CanRead: true
    CanSeek: true
    CanWrite: true
    Capacity: 6936
    Length: 6936
    Position: 0

    So, it's actually a Unicode text if I read it with StreamReader:

    new StreamReader ((Stream) e.Data.GetData (e.Data.GetFormats () [0]), Encoding.Unicode). ReadToEnd()
    ' E@=3@JKZ100h\\L] JDYcLO7e9@FLU:h9iM] > 5Uf16W > Hii091DHkYGJKJHMd [].<>

    What is the right way for me to implement operation drag and drop my palette to insert custom options? I think to create a MemoryStream similar but I do not understand the format of the data.

    Thank you.

    Please note that the Clipboard format is not something that we intend to create directly and they may change in a future version of TestStand. So if you do this, keep in mind that it is possible, it may not work in a future version of TestStand (i.e. we do not support creating Clipboard elements directly).

    That said, it would be possible to operate in the current versions of TestStand as follows (I did not do exactly what you do, but here's how our format is currently produced):

    PropertyObject [] stepPropObjects = new PropertyObject [1];
    Step newStep = templateOfStep.AsPropertyObject (). Clone ("", PropertyOptions.PropOption_CopyAllFlags |) PropertyOptions.PropOption_DoNotShareProperties) as a step;
    newStep.CreateNewUniqueStepId ();
    stepPropObjects [0] = newStep as PropertyObject;

    DataObject dataObject = new DataObject();
    StepFormat = DataFormats.GetFormat DataFormats.Format ("SeqEditor new binary stage");
    String serializedPropertyObject = this. Engine.SerializeObjects (stepPropObjects, SerializationOptions.SerializationOption_UseBinary);
    serializedPropertyObject += 'F'; False to isEditCut (so unique ID will be created on the dough).
    System.Text.UnicodeEncoding encodingForStrConv = new System.Text.UnicodeEncoding ();
    ubyte [] buffer = encodingForStrConv.GetBytes (serializedPropertyObject);
    VvClipData of MemoryStream = new MemoryStream (buffer);
    dataObject.SetData (stepFormat.Name, vvClipData, false);

  • Create a LabVIEW step dynamically

    Hello

    I am quite new to Teststand.

    I am creating a step in LabVIEW dynamically using ActiveX in Teststand.

    What I am trying to specify the LabVIEW module using the TestStand API OR with the class 'Step' and the 'SpecifyModule' method It makes sense, but I wonder to change my call to ActiveX. I probably don't use the right class or method.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I've attached screenshots for clarity.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Vincent,.

    Try this example.

  • How can I use properties with TestStand

    I guess that's another pretty basic question: -.

    I use just a step for now to do what I want to do and reprot back after it's done. Finally, I would like to use properties as the current method has considerable drawbacks. Problem is: 'the object' seems to be eliminated as soon as the step is complete. How can I make an instatiation stay for long enough to get the data using properties?

    I hope this sense to everyone. Coding in c#

    Oh, I thought you meant teststand properties. The word "property" is much too generic.

    What you need to do is to store a reference to your .NET object in an object reference variable TestStand. When you call the constructor of teststand there is a place where you can specify a variable to store. Then when you want to access the data on this new stage in .NET object, specify the option 'Use existing object', as the first call rather than the constructor and specify the variable in which you've stored previously the .NET object, what do you call/property access on.

    Hope this helps,

  • Add limits to the parameters step through API TestStand of LabVIEW

    Dear LabVIEW and TestStand community!

    I am trying to add FileGlobal Variables that limits TestStand step NumericLimit programmatically, via LabVIEW via the TS API. I attach a screenshot of the code, which I use (part of it - the module that defines only values up to a limit high and low of the step), and also I agree, what I managed to get.

    In TS, when I open the file in sequence, after the execution of the code, I see in the description of the test line, he accepted limits, I put the LV - you can see on the screenshot, it is marked yellow. But in the "Limits" tab, there are even numeric values by default, not FileGlobal Variables.

    Could someone explain, what it means and how to configure correctly?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    I think that the search string to set the value Boolean true is inaccurate. Try to use "Limits.UseLowExpr" and "limits. UseHighExpr ".

  • Change the limit step programmatically in TestStand 3.1

    Hello guys and girls.

    I got a small task for TestStand 3.1 and I don't know how to do this.

    I want to programmatically change the limit of step (multiple numerical limit test) for a step before it is executed. How can I do this? I read that someone suggested to use a step ActiveX to access limits:

    http://forums.NI.com/T5/NI-TestStand/equivalent-to-step-limits-low-NumericFormat-in-TestStand-3-1/TD...

    «TestStand 3.1 can't API calls in expressions (I think that this feature has been added in 4.0 TestStand).» You must instead use a step ActiveX. You can use an ActiveX not configured to call into PropertyObject.NumericLimit and call him on Limits.Low of the step you want to set the property. »

    I am, however, not sure how exactly to proceed since I've never used the ActiveX components in TS before.

    If anyone has the code examples (or write), I would be very grateful.

    -Kim

    As mentioned in this thread, you can certainly change the limits in your version. Read it back.

    p.s. in the future, please post to the Board TestStand and LabVIEW.

  • Button state created the Master page properties not applying does not at all pages

    When I create a button and add a hyperlink to this button on my main page, the hyperlink properties do not apply to all other pages.  So when I test my Web site and click on the 'Services' button, it will take me to the page "Services".  However, since the 'Services' page the other buttons do not work.  Technically, they must work because EVERYTHING is created on the main page should apply to all pages, including linking them.  Is there a bug in the function?

    Hello

    This problem is usually caused when objects are located above the Navigation bar, so that you are unable to click on it.

    To resolve the issue:

    (1) open the master page with Muse

    (2) create a new layer using the layers panel

    (3) move the navigation bar at this new layer: select the navigation bar, click with the right button on it > go to layer

    4) to ensure that this new layer is on top

  • Help with dynamically created components (turning point properties on or off)

    Hi all! I'm working on an application with a bunch of delegates of control is created dynamically.

    Here's my use case-scenario:

    I do a type app GPA calculator, and instead of hard coding a lot of drop-down lists for students select notes, I created a custom component. According to the documentation, each component created dynamically are destroyed until the parent TI auto is destroyed. ControlDelegate seems to be a better option that you can set the flag to false to make the component to go.  I created a delegate of control that uses the custom of the list drop-down and added a few aliases to give each a name of object on creation. Now, my problem is that I can't understand the correct item call to the property delegateActive set to false to make the element disappear.

    Here is the delegate of the control:

  • Automation of creating user manual step

    Hi all

    I just started using InDesign hoping he can help my technical writing work. I mainly write technical manuals - installation equipment instruction manuals. Each step in a manual generally consist of an image showing the next action that the user must perform as well as some text step of explaining what the image and support that the reader needs to do next.

    I understand how to manually add text frames and image, as well as the way which put a link text frames the text between multiple images. However, I hope I can find a way to automate the insertion of a group or a set of images pre-defined.

    An example: I have a 40 step installation manual. Each stage has a photo showing the action step as well as text of instruction below (a bit like a legend). Each page of the book manual steps 6 - 2 rows with 3 steps (think the page orientation to landscape). Each step has exactly the same size and dimension, as well as margins gaps between them. The text block in frame of picture of each step is also fixed in size.

    So I have this installation manual 40 step and I want to insert a step missed between steps 13 and 14. To do this manually, I have laboriously move each step starting with 14 place a 'space' in the following pages, so I don't have space to insert the new step. This means that I must climb 26 steps each space by cutting/gluing - a very tedious task. Not to mention that I have then to manually renumber the steps incrementing by 1.

    Is there a way to define a "model content step", which contains a predefined image frame and the text block (both empty) grouped, and then power somehow automatically insert this step model in the desired position (for example, the new step 14) and that InDesign can do all the tedious work of automatically pass all the other steps up on their multiple pages as well as update the number of step?

    D appreaciate suggestions!

    Edit: Would be nice to be able to delete a step, and have all the following steps returned a space, as well that were renumbered accordingly steps.

    In your case, I would do the following:

    1. Set up your document according to the desired size and the purge as facing pages.
    2. In the new document change the baseline grid (Preferences > grid), which come only 2 lines is visible, where are your first lines of your steps.
    3. Implement a text object style frame with 3 columns
    4. Implemented 2 paragraph styles (additional to the title or other text: (NEVER WORK WITHOUT PARAGRAPH STYLES)
      1. Style for the step text paragraph, it should align the reference grid only [Text Style] next [Picture Style], auto numbering in the paragraph Style style, tip size fixed as police 10pt, 12pt leader.
      2. Paragraph style for the image [Picture Style], the main autosize
    5. Prepare a picture frame in the size you want, put it in a library.
    6. Drag the frame in your document,
    7. place an image inside,
    8. Cut the frame with the image in the clipbord and
    9. implement the text tool and
    10. Insert the contents of the clipbord in the image point where it should be.

    Position of the image in this case, I would define precisely with the paragraph style.

    Use a unique story for all the blocks of text.

  • How to create fichiers.hq/agent.properties for upgrade without acquiring

    Is it possible to NOT include the hqadmin passwd in the agent.properties file that would be put in the directory .hq so I could upgrade the agents at a distance without any interactive actions.
    I do not have a password as well as a person can see. IM using the Open Source version.

    The agent needs the password to establish initial contact with the server. There is (yet) any other provision of the first authentication other than the username / password, so the installer needs this password.

    Unfortunately, the agent.properties acts as a response file and a configuration file, if you need it after the installation as well (it would be better to split these two roles in separate files). What you could do to minimize exposure of the password must ensure that you have the security settings on this file that restricts access to any account that you are using. Assuming you are trying to deploy a Windows agent, if you do an install remotely with a ZIP, you could change the first preparing an archive of ntbackup with the permissions appropriate and from who.

    You could later change the properties file and take the password or replace with a new one (effectively delete the PW as well). The agent does not have a lock on the file.
