integer in a textbox

Hello

I use Diadem 2012, and I have a problem to acquire a number in a text box.

IM new tiara and programming so please excuse me if my questions seem essential

My textbox is set up like this:

Variable: tolerance

VariableColIndex 1

VariableRowIndex 1

In Edit/Variables, I selected:

type: Integer

Storage mode: scalar

I received an error message when I run the dialog box:

Cannot bind to the variable dialog box (s):

tolerance: you have specified this variable with an invalid type. It's the good type: Variant

I guess I should be able to put a whole one here?

--------------------------------

In the case, I use the type variant

I define in the script: GlobalDim ('tolerance')

But when I write a number it return me '5' (the text I guess) and not the number 5.

What should I do?

Also there is another way to use data beteen dialogbox and script the use of GlobalDim in the script and set the variable manually in the dialog box?

Best regards

Frédéric

Hi Fred,.

I'm sorry, that the SUDialogs text box returns a string, so you'll need to use the CLng() command in the SUDialog to convert the value of the variable 'Tolerance' to a variant of subtype string to a variant of subtype integer.  You can do this in the case of LoseFocus in the text box or the Terminate event of the SUDialog.

Alternatively, you can declare an explicit data typed variable with OdsValAlloc() or by loading a file *.vas with UserVarCompile(), you can associate a variable of integer type instead of a variable of type variant in the text box, then the SUDialog would be automatically coerce the string returned by the entire text box.  In this case the SUDialog also pop up would be a dialog box error you can't control if the user enters a non-integer value in the text box.

  • Remote PC stops responding when the lines are added to a multiline textbox

    Hello

    When connected two RDP connections and multiline textbox is visible and always up-to-date (e.g. time real record on the screen), then all other processes and threads are suspended on the remote PC. For example, the task manage does not refresh, the clock stops, if you have a few applications running on this PC Server/services so their customers will get the writing/connect timeout errors, etc.

    to reproduce this problem:

    1. create a test application simulating recording in real time on the screen. For example, create a new GUI application (for example, in visual basic, delphi, etc.), several (for example six) textbox, control and set multiline = true (or use TMemo components in delphi), add the button and code to add rows in a loop (for example 200 iterations) these textbox/TMemo controls (see the sample code below). Build the executable

    2. have three PC of loan. The first connect to second via RDP and from there linking to third parties via a second RDP connection. Third PC start test application, that you created in step 1. While the lines are added to the multiline/TMemo text box, try to do something with this PC, for example open the Task Manager, check how it is refreshing, open clock and note how seconds are proliferating, try to connect to some services from another PC (shared disk for example, ftp, web, etc.) and see how to answer they are

    Windows 2000 seems to be ok, xp, 7, Server 2003/2008 have some problems

    is there something that we could do to make the third-party application with real-time logging to the multiline/TMemo text box does not slow down or suspend our services that are running on the same PC, when someone connect via RDP? also, it would be great if microsoft could fix this problem

    example code:

    For i As Integer = 1 to 200
    Dim s As String = «»
    J As Integer = 1 to 10
    Convert.ToString (i) & s = s & ""
    Next J
    TextBox1.AppendText (s & Chr (13) & 10)

    J As Integer = 1 to 10

    Next J
    TextBox6.AppendText (s & Chr (13) & 10)
    Next I

    var
    i: Integer;
    s:string;
    Start
    for i: = 1 to 200 start
    s:='';
    While length<20 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">
    glMemo1.Lines.Add (s);

    While length<40 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">
    glMemo2.Lines.Add (s);

    While length<60 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">
    glMemo3.Lines.Add (s);

    While length<80 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">
    glMemo4.Lines.Add (s);

    While length<100 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">
    glMemo5.Lines.Add (s);

    While length<200 do="" s:="s+intToStr(i)+'">

  • Don't put the focus on the textbox when switching to the new tab

    Hello

    I use Firefox and I like to browse websites using it.

    But after the update to version 10.0, I am facing problem. The focus is not set to Google search textbox when I open a new tab and click on text box, I have to click another element of Task Manager and then I see the update.

    I am facing this all the days of problem and it happened after updating to this new version, only I didn't face this before.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • base handling integer does not not on HP first Calc?

    I am a new user of the first HP Calculator.  Suite page 585 of the manual on the manipulations of integer.  I've entered a number #100001100 b and to display its value in hexadecimal form or decimation.  I scroll to the top to select.  Then I press the passage, the base key (directly to the right of 3), but I don't get the whole edit dialog box.  I have an input # as she waits for a new number to register.

    What I am doing wrong?

    After that I got the same problem, to update my firmware, I found that the following procedure works.

    1. manually put your first update the firmware by holding down mode button Symb when executing a reset of a paper clip.  You will see 'First HP Recovery Mode' at the top of the screen.

    2. important: connect the first USB 2.0 port that is closer to your motherboard as possible.  USB ports that are connected by an extension or a hub often will fail, even if it is a powered hub.  USB 3 ports have also been known to fail.

    3. navigate in Windows Explorer to the folder of installation of the connectivity Kit.  In 32-bit Winows 7, here it is:

    "C:\Program Hewlett-Packard HP Connectivity Kit.

    4. run the "Updater.exe" program directly from this folder.

    It should work.  If this isn't the case, I can only suggest to try another computer.  Some people have reported having no success with a computer, then the success with another.

  • FileToArray or readline to read a file and displays the information in a textbox control

    CVI, I am a beginner and I have a few basic questions.
    I am currently using CVI 2009th

    I want to open a file and transform it into another format. The most important information to be included on the GUI.

    The text display, I use the text box.

    With readline, everything has worked, but for my rows of data is rather impractical.

    That's why I tried the same thing with FileToArray. But the table does not appear in the text box.

    I don't know exactly how works the text box. Is - that the textbox is a page break after a certain number of characters? Or I can write a text in succession away?

    Here are a few lines of my code.

    FileToArray

    FileToArray (road access, & fcsLine, VAL_CHAR, fcsfile_numberofelements, 1, VAL_GROUPS_TOGETHER, VAL_GROUPS_AS_ROWS, VAL_ASCII);

    What is the proper way to display text with filetoarray?

    SetCtrlVal (tabPanelINFO, TABINFO_FCS_VERSION, fcsLine);

    InsertTextBoxLine (tabPanelFCS, TABFCS_FCSBOX,-1, fcsLine);

    ReadLine

    While ((fcsfile_open, fcsLine, fcsfile_numberofelements) ReadLine > = 0)
    {

    InsertTextBoxLine (tabPanelFCS, TABFCS_FCSBOX,-1, fcsLine);

    }

    OK I found documentation on the format of your data, and it seems at the first glance not so difficult to decode.

    A few answers to your questions:

    1. opening a file in ASCII mode allows the system to recognize and welcome the correct new line character (the one that allows to ReadLine to interrupt playback) sequence. As you treat binary data may be ASCII option is not the best, you can use

    2. using a data structure or by analysing the single lines in significant variables is somewhat equivalent: in my opinion, the structure is more immediate, she may not need any extra data setting to use correct variables populated by vales (depends on data format and packaging data: little - endian or big-endian and so on)

    3. as much as I've seen in the part of the file that you have posted, the hexadecimal bytes you observe are not in the file: they are only a means of your Viewer uses to represent unprintable binary data

    You want to say CONTROL, right?

    You just need a type of rounding.  No matter if round you upwards or downwards.  If you just around and then compare the entry to the rounded value.  If they are equal, you turn on your LED.  So all you need is a digital control, 2 functions, and a boolean flag.

  • Entire scan of long integer modifier

    For example:

    Change the content of the variable nb 1 at 000001

    OK, so the problem is formatting of integers in specified formats.

    As you can see the search Help for the Fmt function, you use a specifier of evil: at the index of the loop, this is an integer then you should use instead of %s %d. here you implicitly declare YYYY DD, MM, are strings, so the correct format string is the following:

    < %s="" %s="" %s="" %d="" [w6p0] »,="" mm,="" jj,="" aaaa,="">

  • Concatenate an integer to a string for?

    Hello

    I'm new to LabVIEW.

    For my internship, I GPIB hardware control and to take certain measures.

    I use the GPIB write VI which accepts a string for its data entry.

    The command I want to send is of the form: "apply 5, 1".

    I thought to concatenate a string ('Apply_"), an integer ('5'), a coma and space (" ", _") and the last integer ('1'), so that I can increment integers in a loop if necessary.

    However, the VI of string concatenate does not accept the whole entries.

    Also, I think I'm going hard on this topic (I thought adding integers as strings, but then I won't be able to increment them at each iteration).

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you very much

    Of course, you do like this increment:

    Thank you.

    If your analog range of +/-2.5 V.  32768 then--would be the equivalent of-2.5 V.  32767 would be + 2, 5V.

    If you get + /-1 V, then you should see somewhere between + / 13 107 on the analog input of the number I16.

    Basically, take the n ° I16, divide by 32767, multiply by 2.5.  You will have your analog input in volts.

    I don't know why you thing it's just rounding up to the-1 to + 1.  Something must be wrong with your code or configuration.

    Arfaoui

    (1) SetCtrlVal is not the right way to approach the table controls. The values must be inserted into table cells, not in the table itself. The appropriate command is SetTableCellValor SetTableCellRangeVals if you can organize your data in a digital picture. I suggest that you take a look at tablecells.prj example to understand how to manipulate the table. The example is in the \userint folder; you can locate it with the example finder (help > find... examples of menu)

    (2) user interface timers are managed by the UI thread: they can be influenced by all and every event in this thread. What you observe is normal behavior for standard timer UI events; worst case you Heve not observed so far is that if you click and drag a window UI timers are fixed all the time that you press the mouse button! A simple alternative to the UI timers are asynchronous timers , they are treated in a separate thread. Refer to the documentation I linked and examples that you can find with the finder example

  • LabWindows cvi textbox

    I worked with textbox and I got an erros such as: control passed is not a text box, but I spent the correct control! How is that possible?

    Hi Nicla,

    SetCtrlVal function actually works with strings. You can write:

    char path [256];
     
    GetLabelFromIndex (panel1, PANEL1_LIST, index, path);
    SetCtrlVal (panel2, PANEL2_TEXTBOX, path);

    In addition, I doubt that you are confusing 'control channel' with a 'textbox control. Control of the chain is the area in which you can type/display a path or any other string in the single line.

    A TextBox can be multiline with scrollbars, etc..

    You can't be blamed for this. Because the term "textbox" is also used as a name for the version of General single line (who NEITHER called a chain control) by the users of the computer.

    In any case, you should be able to use SetCtrlVal for the string and text box type command.

    Hope this helps,
