Entry of automation of a text file

• Automator: using a text file to set several items from the finder?

  Hello

  what I would do:

  I have a text file that contains multiple entries for files and folders, each on a separate line. I want to dragndrop this file on an automator action, he should ask me a destination folder and then copy all the files and folders in this folder.

  I have my action, automator, set up like this:

  Elements of the open Finder

  Get the content of the TextEdit Document

  Copy to the Clipboard (I have not found another way to keep my text sort file values and let it not be crushed by the following, but it works)

  Quit the Application (TextEdit)

  Ask the Finder items (this requires a destination folder)

  Set the value of the Variable (Destination)

  Get the contents of the Clipboard

  Copies the items from the Finder (at Destination)

  It all works, but only when there is 1 entry in my text file. As soon as I have 2 lines of text, I get the following error message:

  The action "copy Finder items" has not provided with the required data.

  How can I make this work with multiple entries?

  The problem is that you only pass the only element to the copy action (you have copied text), instead of an element for each line (paragraph) in the text.  The solution is to use the action filter paragraphs to break up along the borders of paragraph text, which will give you a list of items.  In addition, you do not necessarily have to use TextEdit or the Clipboard - If you already have a file somewhere, you can simply use the action to combine text files to read the text.

  With the above modifications, your workflow should look like:

  Ask the Finder items  (ask for a destination folder)

  Set the value of the Variable  (Destination)

  Ask the Finder items  (Download text files) - set the action to ignore the entry

  Combine text files  (read the text files)

  Filter paragraphs  (paragraphs which are not empty return)

  Copy the items to the Finder  (at Destination)

• Control the Structure of the event with text file

  I'm new relativaly in LabVIEW (experience only about 2 weeks). I am currently control a stepper motor using a structure of the event. Similar to the sample code given by LIFA, I entered my settings how the engine not move away, then press a button on the windows before, and it works this way. I also have other equipment that works as well in LabVIEW, as a transnational step; all components operate individually.

  Now, I'm trying to make the more automated system and to ensure that all the different equipment work in the same code. So, I tried to implement a structure of the event using a text as an input file to try to control events. The text file has a table 1 d of numbers going down vertically (only the line numbers change). So, I used a table of index function to take the numbers one by one, use a loop (while loop in this example) to go to the bottom of the column of numbers. However, the event not register the change, even if the indicator shows the value is changing.

  Attached, it's my test code and the text file that I use to try to control the structure of the event. Please let me know what I am doing wrong. Thank you.

  Oh, now I understand what you tried to say. I'm using a loop and a case structure to activate different events with the entries in the table. I thought case structures and event were the same, but you taught me the event structures are used just for the façade stuff. Thank you all!

• AppleScript - extraire extract values from a table, create a text file with these values

  Hello world

  Lets say I have a table that looks a bit like this

  

  And this table I would create 2 text files (or even more, depending on how many switchnames are there) who look a bit like these

  

  

  Is it still possible?

  I suppose to create a Service (which can be called in numbers) with Automator which includes an Applescript script - but - no idea since the script is not one of my strong suits.

  There is not need to be perfect, because tables are not necessarily the model presented above - so to tweek the script to the application will be necessary. The text files can be created/saved in the same folder as the file numbers is in.

  Y at - it script-genius out there?

• Why can't the system find/open executable a text file when run in labview?

  The executable system works perfectly when it is in the folder. He is able to open the text file.

  When the executable is launched through LabView, it returns however it cannot open the text file.

  Is this a problem that I can fix it or what I need to find another way to enter data?

  Thank you.

  Can you show us a code?

• Convert data from text file to display for hex UDP transmission controls

  Hello

  I'm reading packets ethernet from a text file containing the actual hex data packets to then send these accurate return through a writing UDP hex data. I can't understand how to feed data into the function of writing UDP as real rather than characters ASCII hex data, as it does by default. I had the screen on the last VI before the writing of the UDP to "hexadecimal display mode" and if I manually type the hexadecimal values in the VI (hexadecimal string to binary String.vi - attached), then it passes the commands correctly. However,... when I fed the string of text in my text file data in this VI, it seems to be the substitution of this hexadecimal display on the VI input mode and the resulting entry in my UDP is still ASCII character mode. I tried to use a cast inside this VI, type... but that doesn't seem to work right. I have attached the main VI and VI which tries to prepare data before reading the UDP protocol. I've also attached an example of text file of data that I am an attempt of analysis.

  Any help would be appreciated,

  Thank you

  Hi jsrocket,

  the attached example should work as a transformation.

• Continous writing in the external text file

  I'm trying to build a VI in labVIEW that will supply a decimal value based on a binary file to enter a box structure. The structure of the case will display a string value according to the decimal places of entry. The problem that I wrote the string value to a text file that will continue to write while the Vi is constantly running.

  Here are a few suggestions (you'll learn a lot more if you try to do this yourself, instead of my giving you a 'solution').

  • You have 8 Boolean commands.  Consider making a table (size 8) Boolean controls (among other things, it does help group them for you).
  • If you look at the range of Booleans, you will see a function of "array of numbers.  Guess what that so "feed you" an array of Boolean 8...  You can eliminate a lot of code by doing this.
  • Your numbers are all integers, so it is not sensible to save as a double.
  • You have a configured here While loop.  What you think about quick check how it works?  Do you care?  Do you want to it is running "as fast as possible?  Do you want it to run at a fixed speed (for example, a loop per second)?  Do you want it runs 'when something happens?
  • Good thing you have done, is recognize that the task of recording has three parts - Open (performed only once), Write (done as often as necessary) and closed (performed only once).  You also correctly positioned the relevant functions before, inside and after the while loop.  I'm not 100% certain it's important in this particular case, but usually when we done that and has a While loop, running on the same "variable" on several occasions, the wire is put in a shift instead of a pair of tunnels register.  Even if it is not necessary here, it would be a good change to make, because it will be necessary in other cases.

  I did not actually run your code, but do not see something terribly wrong with it.  Try to make the changes I suggested (which will allow you to significantly reduce the size of your VI).  Special attention to the question of the 'speed '.  If you republish your "improved" VI (and thanks for posting it), you could describe a little better "the problem I have" - what do I do, or what he does not?

• Add data at the end of a specific line in the text file

  Hello

  I'm trying to add data at the end of the last 4 lines of the text file attached with the ' table to add.  4 rows (422.5800 entry), I would add the first entry of the 'Array to add' entry, on the 5th line to add the second entry of the 'Add picture' and so on.  How can I do this?

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Sincerely,.

  hiNi.

  After re-reading your post, I think that's what you really want to start adding after the first 4 rows.

• Import data from text file of control of the ring.

  Is it possible to import data to a text ring with labview control.

  I have several definitions of register in the ring controls, but manual entry would take a lot of time.

  Was wondering if there was more automatic way, I could read the values from a file.

  Thank you

  Jim

  Using the first method gives you the ability to extend such that each column specifies a control of the ring if you need fill the multiple rings.

  This example assumes that all of the three rings contain the same number of elements. If this isn't the case, you will need to create a Subvi, which removes the empty elements. [Edit - create a text file that contains a column for each ring, separated by a tab character.]

  

• Write to the file text File.vi out all but first line begins with tab

  The PNG attached shows the code used to accumulate strings concatenated into an array of strings for the first four lines, then to a string in the array to the worksheet String.vi and, finally, use write to Text File.vi the lower right corner shows the result in a spreadsheet. Note the 3 empty entries marked by a filled red rectangle. Examination of hidden characters shows that there is a tab at the beginning of lines 2, 3 and 4. There is no tab shown in the code. How these tabs to get? How can I stop them? I tried with the option 'Convert EOL' on and outside, without any difference. The help says that an EOL OS-dependent character is added to each line. I can't imagine that the EOL Windows character has a tab.

  The tabs are from the table to the string of worksheet function.  You build a chain of worksheet, complete with tabs and CR.  Just drag a concatenate the strings in his place and it will work.

  I would bag all constants of the tab and the CR.  Build an array of 2D with just the values strings (without tab, no CRs), happening in the array to function SS.

• Write/close text file problems

  There is probably a simple answer to this question, but I can't seem to understand.

  I'm using a controller compact realtime RIO 9068

  I have a program very simple reading of data from a serial port and saving it to a text file.  Before recording starts, I call the function open/create/replace file, then I start reading the port, and I run the function "Write to a text file" whenever I get a certain number of bytes from the serial port.    Everything works fine if I use the program as planned, I press the Start button to start the recording of data and then press the stop button to stop the recording, who runs then the function "close file".  I get a well recorded transcribed text file and all is right with the world.

  This application is intended to save the data for hours unattended, if I want her to be robust for a power failure.  If I pulled the power so that the data connects, I always get the file on the hard drive, but is 0 bytes is no in.  It seems that if I don't run the IA function to "close the file" nothing is saved.  I am confused because I thought the closing of the record vi relases only the file of labview control and don't actually nothing to write to the file.  Anyone have any ideas on what is wrong?

  I'll post photos of the code, but its on a machine of lab that is not connected to the internet.

  Discover the function Flush file in the Advanced queue Functions menu.  Following is the help file for this entry:

• Store an array of Boolean as a text file

  Hello

  I'm having some trouble storinge a table 2D-25 x 25 of Boolean in a text file.

  First of all, I do the 2D table a table 1 d and then I change it to a number, but here, something is already wrong, not the full number is stored, no doubt because the table is this great?

  Any help will be very appreciated!

  Hello

  the function of reading binary file, there is a data type called entry on top. It is by default displayed as an input string. wire a Boolean constant 2D on this entry. You can read the Boolean data in the file

  If the number is 1, you get a boolean to the output array. If the coutn is - 1, you will get an array of arrays.

• A value of reading either excel or a text file

  Hello

  We are students working on a schoolproject where we want to control some output engines. We want to create a set of input values are in red in our program either excel or a text file.

  For example, we want an entry to read the value '1' then the program runs its course and we get a result from the entry '1', after read the next value '2' and the program runs its course and so on.

  We looked for clues and answers, but I suppose were really wrong with that. Someone here who could help us?

  Less you can see one of our programs, its designed to control 3 fans depending on the input (ppm of CO). We want to replace the 'digital controller"(ppm of CO) in another 'thing' that gives us an entry in a list of values.

• CONVERTING SCAN TO ocr TEXT FILE

  I bought recently a new in the Deskjet One 4440.

  I used the disk supplied with the device implementation, and installed the COMPLETE INSTALLATION.

  I can't get the scanned document to save in a text file.  I even went online on the HP website and downloaded the new drivers and softwear nothing helps.

  I have read all the data in the event of problem and discovered that the program does not include the part of OCR program.

  OCR is what converts a document scanned into editable text.

  In the end, I spent an hour and a half (1 & 1/2 hours) on the phone with HP Tech Support.  The technology was very polite and patient, but could not fix the problem either.  Technology has even tried adding download drivers and additional software.

  All to nothing does not.

  It is the first HP printer scanner that I have ever owned, and so far I am very disappointed.

  I never had such problems with more Lexmark printers and a single units, except for the price for replacement ink cartridges.

  I still have a whole perfectly well and operational in a Lexmark, it's just more ink.

  If anyone has an idea of what's wrong with my new HP, I would be very grateful for any help.

  Thank you very much

  Ed

  Hi scandroid,

  Thanks for the reply.

  Meanwhile the next reminder of day Technical Support HP in India, I connected to this chat site and found that my new installation of the software does not include a program with OCR.

  I went to the HP website and downloaded "HP Photo Smart Full Program." (C309a)

  I installed it and it fixed my problem.

  I have read many entries on the blog of people who have had the same problem.

  The above download is a deffinate for problem solution.
