Create the context menu

Before anyone jumps on me, I want to clarify that I indeed google at some length on the pop-up windows in labview, and I still don't know how to do what I want here.

I want to create a diagram of the system that I'm controlling through LabView such as when someone clicks on a part of the graph, it will bring up this piece of equipment-specific controls/displays in a pop-up window.  I don't want the user to have to enter the block diagram of the VI main to do, but to be able to access it from the main screen.  I noticed the tabs can be a good solution, but I'm trying to comply with the wishes of my boss.  Is there a good way to go about this?

Thank you!

I like this.  How would I go about opening the front panel for a Subvi, so?

If you right-click the Subvi in the block diagram, you can define the node Subvi prorperties as "show the Panel before the opening."  In this method, the Subvi guess priority and made a break from the main vi until the operation Subvi (UI as a close button to end the while loop in the Subvi).

There are other options, for example by placing the controls in a container (such as a tab control) and hidding / showing this container when necessary (made with knots of property).

Or, you could use the completely separate screws and call them by reference.  This approach may be desirable if you want / allow multiple control screens open and functional at the same time.  Be extremely careful in this case if some of these screws share Subvi, accessing the same file, or interact with the same piece of hardware that you create race conditions.

  • How to create the context menu PlayBook under WebWorks

    I searched for hours and I can't find any guidance on how to create a context menu for an application PlayBook WebWorks. I refer the menu which is supposed to appear when you drag to the bottom of the top. I tried to use logical blackberry.ui.menu, but it seems that the functionality of the user interface is not yet available for the PlayBook.

  • Add the "Print Directory Listing" option to the context menu of Windows Explorer

    Get the error message when you try to use the "Print Directory Listing" solution found in:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321379/en-us on my new Windows 7 system (from February 2010).

    Could create the context menu of Windows Explorer for the task, but selecting just results in the following error message:

    "This file doesn't have an associatd with her program to perform this action. Please install a program or... to create an association in the default programs control panel. »

    Wentback and checked my Regedit work.  Even deleted the new key and she recreated (just in case.)

    NOTE: I had successfully used the instructions in this article to add "Print Directory Listing features on Windows XP systems, so I reviewed these instructions to see differences and noticed that it * no. * 'associate' step for Vista/Win7 in the article, but this step still shown for XP.»

    And, there seems to be NO WAY to associate a program (in this case, a ".bat") with all of 'record' as target.  Only choices I see these in the 'control panel default programs ' are'. [extensions] "and the protocols.

    So I'm puzzled.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I just tried this with instructions to the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321379/en-us link you provided and it worked fine.

    In view of the error you get here are my assumptions to what may be the problem.  Please try these out and answer:

    -Because it denounces, "file doesn't have an associated program.." I would make sure that when you created with Notepad the file .bat you na not to create a file called 'Printdir.bat.txt' or 'Printdir.bat.some_bad_extension '.  If your Windows Explorer settings are set to hide file extensions when you look at a file name, then maybe the REAL file extension you give the command file is being hidden on your part and Windows does not know how to open a file with the extension hidden type.  Make sure that you can see all the file extensions and make sure that the batch file is named with the .bat extension.

    -If you see very well all the file extensions in Windows Explorer and your file is called really Printdir.bat, make sure that you have saved in your root directory of Windows.  If you access %windir% you see Printdir.bat inside there?  If this isn't the case, put it there.  If you do, when you double-click the .bat file Windows run without error and print the dir?  If it works, you know that the batch file works correctly.

    -There's a typing error in the instructions for Vista/Windows 7, check that your registry entries look like this:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Print directory Listing\command

    This shows the new key under shell called "Print Directory Listing" and inside this key/folder another folder/key named "command".

    To within the key/folder 'command', it takes only one entrance with the name of (by default).  Double-click (default) and make sure that its value data is set to:

    Printdir.bat %1

    -You shouldn't need step "the associate" in Windows 7.

    -You can add "Add Print Directory Listing to the context menu of Windows Explorer" for the title of your question so that others can find it.

  • Failed to create the menu popup JavaScript with to display the context Menu with the help of add behaviors

    Whenever I load a page with this added behavior and test it with my link, I get a message "error on Page".

    Here's what I do:

    Create a new HTML page in Dreamweaver 8.0.2 and save it.

    Add a hyperlink in the Insert-> menu hyperlink. Do not put anything in it except a few example of text; "THIS IS a TEST", or something.

    Select the hyperlink and choose "Show the context Menu" in the tag behaviors menu tab ' + '. The dialog box will appear.

    Add a single item and add a link to a page. Do not change the other options. Click OK to close the dialog box and the code will be added to the page.

    Save the HTML page again and press F12 to load the page on your test server and display them in a browser.

    Hover your mouse over the link to test. Nothing happens and there is a message in the status bar at the bottom of the browser, "error on Page".

    OK, it works. I saw the source file that are listed there, but I assumed that Dreamweaver would be to download the file with the HTML file to test on my test server. Usually, I'm prompted to download all the dependent files. Is there an exhibitor or dreamweaver do not miss this link?

    I'm sold on convictions explained in the rants you have linked, but only after I see that Dreamweaver menus don't work. It is not entirely necessary for my completely dependent users of my menus, they are only a feature of page layout.

  • What happened to the "mark this page" link in the context menu?

    I used more anywhere with the right button on a Web page and the option to choose any bkmrk folder, or create a new subfolder. There was no message stating "bookmark page."

Effective summer bcs you never had to shift in another part of the screen, or at least not periphery. Right click-> 'bookmark this page' menu appears as if it were a context menu. I just downloaded and installed FF 32.0.2. The

  • Item ListView gets deselected as it appears from the context menu

    Since about 10.3.1 I notice that my lists behave in the same way, when I long press on a point I think the context menu to appear, what it does, but when it does so the item is deselected, so in the slot press and hold on I can't access the row for the selected item.

    At all the world feels something similar?

    Thank you.

    OK, problem solved. Here is the solution:

    -When the popup appears entirely because the finger was published the listener to activate slot is called indicating released finger. Problem is ListItemListener example in the docs went something like this:

    void MyItemClass::activate(bool activate)
    {
        // There is no special activate state, select and activated looks the same.
        select(activate);
    }
    

    Who calls the select slot and it says to turn off. That's why it's happening. Don't know how much this has changed, but this is the situation.

    To fix it I removes the code of slot() activation which allows the selected list item, but a new problem pervades: the element can not get deslected. To manage this I created an instance of ContextMenuHandler(), connected the visualStateChanged to a slit and searched a State ContextMenuVisualState::AnimatingToHidden clear the selections of the listview. So far so good.

    I'm sure I'm missing something very elementary, but my eyes are listening on after a lot of research.

  • How to add commands to the context menu for the types of files (add associations)?

    I would like to download anime and re - encode standard dvd (mpeg2) format before you burn it to a DVD for better quality.  I have a program suite that supports the grunt work, but to do a contextual menu command that calls the original batch file that the user must manually add it to the menu of context by file association.  I found that I can access the menus of file associations, but the option to add a new association with an existing file type does not seem to exist.  Is there a registry entry, I need to change or add to allow me to customize my context menus in Windows 7?

    Create a text file (make sure you have the framework where you DO NOT hide known file extensions unmarked)

    Change the new text file... Copy the following: [quote]

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.AVI\shell\Queue for encoding]
    @= "& Queue for encoding.

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.AVI\shell\Queue for Encoding\command]

  • "Insert" option is disabled in the context menu for the XQuery Mapper

    In regards to the XQuery Mapper fails when you drag from the Source to the target (Doc ID 1962165.1()

    Insert option is disabled in the context menu due to a complex type in the XSD. How this complex type can be mapped if the target instance must be created before being able to map?

    Hello

    I created a small diagram to test, and indeed you cannot use the Insert create items in the design, but you can do it in Source view.

    To be even easier that I did was to take this scheme which had only a root with a choice and added another element like a father (so I added another level). Like this, you are able to use the Insert, and if you see the code that is generated after doing, in the Source, you'll have what you need.

    See you soon,.

  • Inserting a node on an element empty &lt; af:tree &gt; via the context Menu


    My requirement is to create a tree node by using the option "Insert" through the context menu when the component of the tree is empty. By clicking on the option insert a node should be created in the tree. But currently the context menu don't appear unless a node exists in the tree of.

    Fig - context menu is not display when no available tree node

    3.jpg

    The component of the tree grabs only necessary to render space and only in this space, you can access the context menu. As you do not have a jet of node, the space to make the tree is very small or didn't exist at all.

    You can add a showPopupBehavior (pointing to the popup of context menu) to FY: tree which should give you the popup anywhere in the tree.
