Excel cells don't no shading when non-adjacent cells are selected with the Ctrl key

When cells not adjacent are selected in any spreadsheet Excel 2007 that normal cell shading shows which cells are considered for avg, sum count etc works in the lower tray of Excel.  Unexpectedly when I now select cells not adjacent no shading appears and I have no idea of cells that have been selected.  Is this some sort of setting usless that I inadvertently threw it or is this a real Excel error?

  • LabVIEW 2009 SP1 crashes when moving large selection with the arrow key

    If I select a lot (10 or 15) diagram components and try to move some distance with the arrow button, I'm often a program crash.  Because a reduced number of components seems to hang after a longer distance traveled, it looks like some sort of buffer overflow error.  I don't see this problem when you use the mouse to move selections.

    I checked to make sure I have the latest version of the video driver for my NVIDIA Quatro FX570.  I also tried to work with no hardware acceleration and no handset, written.  What happens on Windows XP SP3 with all current updates.

    It became so bad that I have to do a save as every fifteen minutes to avoid losing data.

    Why not use my mouse for all movements?  Because it is not as specific and not so easy to limit to only one dimension of the movement.   My hand is not as stable as it once was.

    I'm hoping someone will have a suggestion that will clear up this problem.

    As I have indicated, I had the same problem with 8.5 and just DID a new install of Labview 2009.

    Since it is possible that my three monitors configuration, which of course requires more memory video, may be at the origin of the problem, I am satisfied with workaround by dragging the objects closer to their final destination and then using the arrow keys.

    Three monitors are ideal for the front, block and help/Internet/probe damaged.  When I got to work in the field with a single monitor, I felt severely handicapped.

    You can consider the issue closed.

    Thank you for trying to reproduce the failure.

  • Mouse Sonar: Registry key? Specify the location of the pointer when I press the CTRL key

    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    (But this feature existed for several years, at least as old as XP).

    In Control Panel mouse pointer Options tab, there is a checkbox option:

    [b] "see the location of the pointer when I press the CTRL key". [/ b]

    When this field is selected, pressing the CTRL key causes concentric circles around the mouse pointer, to help you find it quickly. HE often called mouse Sonar.

    I want to activate this option, but my mouse control panel does not have a pointer Options tab. I installed a mouse of third-party providers of hardware, software and drivers, and they hid the pointer Options tab. If I knew that the registry key for this option, I can activate it via regedit.

    Someone knows the active registry key or disables this option?

    This option is stored under this registry key:

    HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\UserPreferencesMask
    However, it is coded to store several variables, and this direct modification is very far from a supported scenario.  You can try to install the Microsoft IntelliPoint software instead.

    brick2,
    Thank you for taking the time to post.  You're saying that it sounds as if your hard drive is not detected.  You will need to contact the manufacturer of your PC to help with the possible hardware failure and to get copies of the system restore disk.  There is not a way to install windows without a CD or a recovery partition on your hard drive (which it appears right now that your laptop does not see).

    The Central handle on the rectangle isn't gone when I select with the black arrow (v) tool. See the bounding box and the edges is both. Dd intermediate anchor to go?

    haggyabeken,

    I'm afraid that you have come across the Rectangle Live bug, which is limited to MAC versions starting from 10.7 and 10.8, but not 10.9 (Mavericks), see this thread linked below.

    https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1595973

    Thus, a switch for the Mavericks with a reinstall might be the way to solve it here and now.

    To get around it, in each case, it is possible to develop direct Rectangles to get the normal old shaped rectangles or Pathfinder > unit, or use the scale tool.

    A more permanent way round that is to create normal old shaped rectangles, after running the free script created by Pawel, see this thread with download link:

  • When you use Windows Explorer to view the files and folders, the thumbnails of image files appear briefly then are replaced with the default icon of the image file. I tried the answers to similar problems, but none worked.

    Browse the folders with image files, I cannot see the thumbnail icons for images correctly.  I know, it should be possible, but I can't do it.

    When I first open a folder in Explorer, I see the correct images for a fraction of a second, then all images are replaced by the thumbnail of the image file (which looks like part of a digital SLR).
    I put all folders to display picture to display the preview and the filter, and the "always show icons never thumbnails" is not checked.  Display file icon "on the photos' is unchecked (I tried checking, too, without change).  I also deleted the thumbnails using disk cleanup as suggested on another question, but which did not allow them.
    The result is that, if I want to open an image for editing or downloading, I have to use a third-party application (for example, Pentax Photo Browser) to preview images, and then return to the Explorer window to select the correct file by name. Don't try to difficulty of these things that are not broken.

    izzlecrate,
    You might want to try it and I just did this procedure myself a moment ago and surprising, it worked!  First of all I must tell you that I have Windows Vista, but the information I got was for Windows 7 and it worked.

    First: You must create a NEW FOLDER and put it on your desktop.
    Second: Move or copy the contents of the original file in the NEW FOLDER on the desktop. I copied the content, just in case something went wrong.
    Third: After that is finished and all the contents are inside you.
    Fourth: On the desktop right click on the folder and click Properties at the bottom of the box.
    Fifth: Click Customize tab at the top and then the Middle click on DEFAULT settings for the folder.  Click on apply to, click OK and your done

    NOW! You can move the folder wherever you want by drag-and - drop the folder and when it's done and that's the best part, you should see the thumbnails of the folder on the EDGE of the folder that you just created.  It worked for me and I hope it works for you.
    I have 10 years of experience with my computer and have troubleshooted my friends for viruses and other computer problems successfully.  I'm advanced computer user.

    That this is done, it restores the folder its original settings.  Good luck! Rick

  • When dynamically created variables are emptied in the sequential process template?

    I have a sequence TestStand 2014 in which I dynamically create and fill many FileGlobal variables in the installation section of my main sequence.  I have it using the TestStand API to read the data in an Excel file (the data consists mainly of thresholds, limits, etc.).  The methodology itself works flawlessy.

    However, there are differences in behavior when using entry points both execution of the sequential process model.  When you use the entry point of execution 'Single Pass', he has no problem in test a DUT after another.  However, when you use the entry point for execution "Test DUT", I encounter the following error after completing of DUT1 and DUT2 testing:

    An error occurred the call 'InsertSubProperty' in 'PropertyObject' of 'NI TestStand 2014 API.

    The name of the element "VariableName" is not valid because it is already in use.

    I interpret this error message means that the variable I am trying to dynamically create the DUT2 track is already present race of DUT1.  I have a few questions about this:

    1. at what point in the sequential process template are dynamically created variables flushed, such as run a further by using 'Single Pass' starts with a clean slate?

    2. is there a reminder that I can substitute such as variables to rinse after each HAD run, allowing me to dynamically create variables on each HAD, during execution using "Test UUT?

    3. better yet, is there a counter of TestStand I can query to determine if I already ran DUT1 when using "Test DUT", such as DUT2 uses the variables that were created dynamically on trail of DUT1?

    Or you can simply use the PropertyExists function as a precondition.

    PropertyExists ("Locals.Foo")
