Is it possible to use a box Structure to hide digital indicators on the front panel, when they are not in use?

I'm rather new to LabVIEW, only used for about 1.5 weeks from this post, it means that I may be missing something pretty obvious due to ignorance, but is it possible to make my front to change as my changes of breakage due to the selection of the user to a certain case via the front panel?

The goal of the program is to make a simple layout for a user who uses the digital multimeter that the proposed code is designed for and I don't want tons of digital controllers and such clutter the screen that do not work with the function of the user uses to measure with.

Thanks in advance.

Yes.

Two ways: 1. use a tab control.

2. use of property nodes (Visible property).

The tab control is a bit easier on the block diagram, but if some controls should appear in many cases it is difficult to do.  Property nodes take more space on the diagram but allows you the versatility to do almost everything you want.

Read the help files and look at a few examples.

  • Design of a logo for a client, when they are not sure of the intended use

    Hello

    Can someone tell me a good "rule" in the design of a logo for someone who does not know what size they want to use this logo in the future? If they do not know what print size they can (business card size or more big sign) - what size is the best to give them AND if they don't know what web size they need, what size is good to give them where they have room to resize? What format is best, I? or pdf?

    This is especially a concern if the logo is done in Photoshop. Any suggestions on standard dimensioning or normal practice in this case? Thanks in advance - K-

    In general, I would like to put the logo to any size that fits on a format sheet paper letter so that the customer can easily print on almost any printer of office as is. If you are an Illustrator *.ai or EPS file without linked or embedded, bitmap images then you don't need to worry about the final size in its various applications, as it will scale without loss of resolution. It can be used for a business card or a billboard.

    If this is done in Photoshop, then you can start with a master file which is enough PPP resolution larger size of the logo of the application. Then, you or the customer can downsample from there. (But since we are in an Illustrator forum and not a forum for Photoshop, I'll show my prejudices Illustrator here and recommend that you use Illustrator for logo if possible work ;-)

    Always handy to give a customer a PDF and JPEG version in addition to .ai or .eps files in case they do not have a Postscript printer or Illustrator.

    Others may have standard practices to suggest.

  • should I turn the printer off when you are not using it?

    you just buy new printer - HP envy 5530 - need to know if I need put it off when you are not using it or if it passes in mode "sleep"?  other printers I had went to sleep mode however cannot locate this answer in the FAQ - like entry - thanks ~ ) husband

    Welcome to the mgchandler forums,

    I saw your post on want to know if you should be powered down the printer or if it won't fall in the mode 'sleep'. My best advice would be to turn off the printer by the power button if it will not be used for a period of time, for example during the night. Regards the mode "standby", the printer goes into standby after 5, 10 or 15 minutes of inactivity.

    • To change the settings for sleep mode, go to the front screen of the printer and press settings (wrench)
    • Contact preferences
    • Press the arrow down and on Standby Mode when you see
    • You can now change the time of mode 5 to 10 to 15 minutes before

    I hope I helped answer your question!

  • all used bookmarks appear in a drop-down list to the right of the bookmarks bar, now they are not

    All my favorites appeared in a water drop down automatically to an icon at the right end of the bookmarks bar. These were not only the additional toolbar bookmarks, but all the bookmarks you'd get to go to bookmarks in the menu bar. Now all I have is the star that opens all the bookmarks to the left of the screen. How to return the auto decline more practice at the bottom right?

  • How will we move page numbers just a bit when they are not defined by using a master page?

    Forgive me if this is super obvious, but I am very new and meet with an INDIVIDUAL who has a hard time finding.

    So I have a book w / page centered at the bottom of each page numbers. This seems to remain separated from body text. My understanding is that the best way to manage the headers and footers is the master pages feature, but one that has made this book, all of these master pages left blank. I'm not sure how they apply page numbers.

    I can easily select page numbers, one at a time and move them up to 5pts, but is there a way to make it more automated? If this isn't the case, it is more precisely, it is a way to move ALL content on all pages to the top of 5 points instead?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Apart from via a script, no there is no way to do this in InDesign. According to the number of pages you have, I simply add the page number automatic on master pages and then erase individual numbers on each page. In this way, you can move them easily in the future. To insert the automatic page number, draw a text frame on the master page and choose text > insert special character > markers > current Page number. If it is a document of face page, copy it into the two pages in the position you want.

  • HP EliteDesk 800 G2 Small Form: The front panel audio connector - this only made type to use for headphones and microphone

    Hello

    I am trying to determine what type of audio 3.5 mm plug to put into the connector on the front panel for the use of a headset to make video communications.

    could be - sleeve, ring and end cap (mono audio and microphone)

    or

    could be - sleeve, ring, ring and tip (stereo sound and microphone)

    Having read through the manuals and nothing is said on the type to use.

    Hello world

    Just plugged the connector 4 poles on my headset combination for my mobile phone (cellular) and the box of pop - up asked me to select headset or microphone - no selection for both.

    Looks like the right sleeve is for headphones only, and the left one is for headphones or micro - selectable by the user and not the two on a single sheet.

    Everything explained by the practice - but not the paperwork in the manuals.

    #5 for microphone or headset - menu popup is displayed after you insert a 3.5 mm plug to select that one but not both at the same time.  (So I can't use my headset to phone)

    Thank you

  • Check boxes are displayed incorrectly < input type = "checkbox", "checked" > in 4.0.1 when they are fine for the same page in 3.6.17

    Check boxes are not displayed properly checked < input type = "checkbox", "checked" > in 4.0.1 when they are fine for the same page in 3.6.17

    Maybe you can try to use controlled instead of "checked".

  • Using the 'current default values do' as a control on the front panel

  • Is there a way to put a button on the front panel only when clicked gives a pop-up dialog box with more information on it?

    Hello world

    The simulations that I create are very simple themselves but are intended to use in the classroom to help students learn more about the proven theory.  I hope to be able to place a 'help' or 'other info' button on the front panel that rises wants more info on theory, they can click on it and a pop up appears with background information on it.  It should also have a second button to close it and return to the main façade.  Can anyone lead me in the right direction?

    Thank you!

    Use a structure of the event on the main vi when the button is clicked, launches a "help" void / vi. On the inside of the Sub vi (with the set properties to load the front when it is called, of course), use another structure of the event to wait until then click on the button of the Subvi, you can return to the main VI. Do you need assistance on using the structures of the event?

  • I can't use the Norton Toolbar in Firefox 4.0 because he says they are not compatible... How can I make them work?

    The Norton toolbar and the latest Firefox I had worked very well together, however, when I updated Firefox, as the information yielded, he told me I could use is more the Norton toolbar because they were not compatible. He said that, even if two of them are updated.

    You will need to contact Norton on their plans for support to Firefox 4. It is quite common for businesses don't support a new version of a browser after that that it has been officially released, and it is not supported for the candidate/beta phase.

  • Is it possible to call a .exe (non-LabVIEW, such as Notepad) in a child windown on the front panel?

    I would like to launch a stand-alone .exe inside the front of my VI.  It is a piece of software by the provider of a sensor that I try to incorporate in my VI.  I was able to find how to call the .exe using the .NET constructor and invoke nodes.  However, the application opens in its own window.  Is there a way to run from a child window within the façade (ideally, within a tab on the front panel control)?

    I'm in LabVIEW 8.6.

    Thank you.

    I don't think that it actually works. My understanding is limited about this feature, but since I read it only works with the pop-up windows and windows that are already children. The application's main window is not a child window.

    I've done it before.  I have attached a simple example using Notepad.  Make sure that the notebook is already open no open files.  Since the example is not the position of the child window, the position relative to the window will be the same, because it is off the desk.  So, make sure the upper left corner of the Notepad is close to the origin of the desktop computer.

  • Is it possible to create a folder that can hide files automatically, when they are copied in it?

    Hello!!!

    Is it possible to create a folder that can hide files automatically, when they are copied in it? I mean how to program a folder so that everything that he would automatically become hidden? I would be very grateful...

    Is it possible to create a folder that can hide files automatically, when they are copied in it?

    Yes. A sort of roundabout.

    For this example, create a folder on your C drive named HideTest.

    Download http://winsupport.org/utilities/freedos-choice.html Choice.Exe (click on the link to download the utility program near the bottom of the page. "And save it in the C:\HideTest folder).

    Open Notepad and then copy and paste the following text in it:

    Off @Echo

    : All
    Set FilesToHide = No.

    : GoToDir
    C:
    cd\HideTest

    : Top
    CLS
    IF FilesToHide %! Is Yes! Attrib *. * + H

    : Choice
    Choice.Exe /c:YN t:Y, 30 are looking for files to hide
    If ErrorLevel 2 Goto: exit

    : MakeList
    Dir > TempList.Txt

    : CheckFiles
    Set FilesToHide = No.
    Find.Exe "0 file (s)' TempList.Txt
    If ErrorLevel 1 Set FilesToHide = Yes
    If exist TempList.Txt Del TempList.Txt

    : Loop
    Goto: Top

    : Output
    Set FilesToHide =
    If exist TempList.Txt Del TempList.Txt
    Output

    Click on file, then save under...

    Go to C:\HideTest

    Name the file Hide.Bat

    Click Save

    Close Notepad

    Open Windows Explorer

    Go to C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Start where user_name is your own username.

    In the right pane, right click, select New, and then click shortcut.

    Click Browse, and then navigate to C:\HideTest and click on Hide.Bat, click Next.

    Type a new name or accept the default name and click Finish.

    Right-click on the newly created shortcut, and click Properties.

    Change the race: from the normal window to reduced.

    Click on apply, and then click Ok.

    Restart your computer.

    Note: In the line above Choice.Exe c:YN t:Y, 30 are looking for files to hide, 30 is the number of seconds it will wait before checking the new files. This can be from 1 to 99.
