Maximizing the window

I am trying to run two .vi at the same time, one who reads the voltage with a DMM and another who performs a calibration program. I would like to have the DMM vi visible at any time because I need for calibration. Whenever I run the calibration vi it maximizes the window to stop me to read the results on the other program. The calibration that VI has tab control and two/three button dialogue which is what I'm guessing enlarges the window. If there is a way to prevent what would be extremely beneficial. I'm pretty new to this so if I forgot something I apologize in advance. If anyone has any ideas it would be great.

Thank you

"By pressing Ctrl + i or navigate through the ' file > VI properties ' menu and you should find catergories called position of appearance of the window or the Runtime. This sounds like it should be the most likely cause of your problem. Did you inherit these screws to someone else?

You should be able to change the appearance of the VI, or what it when it is run (maximize, minimize, nothing,...).

  • Bytes to Port stops on maximizing the window

    LabVIEW for Windows 32-bit 2012SP1f4

    Short history: Any use of bytes of VISA at the port will stop for about 260 milliseconds each time that any window in the same application is maximized or minimized.

    Background:
    I'm working on an application that requires a connection series to transfer data acquired with a very low tolerance for discontinuities due to the lack of timestamp and small buffers. The IO series runs in a dedicated VI configured to run in the runtime system DAQ, with time-critical priority, but whenever one of the Windows GUI of the application is maximized/minimized what causes a disruption that is very important in the IO series and continuity of data collection gets broken.

    Example:

    Here's an example where I stripped the problem to a minimum and measdure the delay time as it happens (the spikes on the graph). In this case, will tell you that MISTLETOE has too much coupling with the measure, but it is not the case in the actual code, and there is no difference in the effect then:

    The funny is that I can point the GUI in a number of ways (scaling heavy GUIs manually on trips for example), but no effect is visible then. Only with minimization/maximization (the first is the worst).

    I tried to find info on this here at ni.com, as it's something I expect others to have seen before, but have not found.

    Is this expected behavior? "Property nodes run in GUI" - type of thing, but VISA-properties? There is no other solution if you need to get the number of bytes, not there...? I could try the VISA-free alternatives that are out there, but it would be a pretty big rewrite at this time, with possibly of other weaknesses...

    To minimize/Maximaizing, Windows did a lot of things under the hood, among other things by making a so-called Cup of memory size. This means that Windows will be the page on memory pages that have not been used for some time, that appears in the Manager of tasks like a massive fall in the used memory. To work correctly, Windows should basically freeze most of the processes so it can mix with memory under his feet, without application running in a dead end of sorts. It is likely that not only the bytes to Serial Port is affected, but also other functions VISA, but at least it's a try. Maybe NOT only managed to keep most of the VISA pilot unlocked here, but the bytes to serial port must call in the Windows COMM driver to do its job properly and that could be a place were Windows will block the process but cut his memory.

    So my first try would be to try with simple functions of VISA, without the use of bytes to the Serial Port. Bytes to the Serial Port is in any case in 99% of cases the wrong function to use. VISA has much more powerful functions with the mode of endpoints on the operation of reading or time-out. Properly used, they are bytes to Serial Port not only unnecessary in most of the cases, but also the top beat the hand in performance. The only case where the bytes to Serial Port should really be necessary is when you try to implement a Serial Port Terminal type application.

    If you find that the culprit is in fact only the bytes to Serial Port rewriting your code to use simple VISA read with operation of character good timeout/termination to resolve it. If other functions VISA will also be blocked (which I think it highly) the only solution is to separate your task of communication in its own executable file to separate it from the user interface (or turn off the option to minimize the front!).

  • How to fix unresizeable maximized the window the addon

    I'm on Firefox Mac v42. I followed some instructions on resizing windows on El captain and now I have a window of the addon for "DownTheAll" which is maximized to full screen and has no control to resize it.

    I can move it, but just not resize. Uninstalling and reinstalling the addon has not set so I suspect theres a window size setting somewhere in Firefox, I need trouble.

    Before you give up and go through the hassle of creating a whole new profile, anyone got any ideas please?

    When you rename the .json file set. Thank you very much!!!

  • In Firefox the bottom window shows that the window is maximized.

    For some reason any, whenever Firefox is maximized, part of the browser window's display down at the bottom of the screen. I don't know why it does this. I tried to disable the Restorer Classic theme and it does not go far, I tried to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox and it has yet to go away. I use a laptop computer with a touch screen built in and I noticed that whenever I scroll upward along a page using the touchscreen, it starts glitching where the window will try repeatedly to shake down and find. I think it has something to do with why continues to display the lower part. Other that that, there isn't any other problem with him.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

    I reinstall my Windows 7 (win 7 pro 64-bit)
    so I had to reinstall firefox as well, installed worm 27 and upgraded to version 29
    now when I run firefox it will start maximized and I want to adjust the size of the window when it starts.
    Why the size of the window will not change and it will start maximized all the time?

    1. In Firefox, type Subject: support in the address bar and press ENTER.
    2. Click the display folder. A Windows Explorer window opens.
    3. Right-click on the Firefox task bar icon and select close all windows or close this window.
    4. In the window of Windows Explorer which opened earlier, delete the file localstore.rdf .
    5. If you have Firefox pinned to the taskbar, right click on the taskbar icon, then right-click on the Firefox icon in the menu that appears and choose Properties.
      • If you have a shortcut on the desktop, simply, right-click and choose Properties.

  • Tabs are not in the title bar even when the window is maximized Windows

    If I'm right, given that shponkah 4 b 9 FFX must be in the title bar when the ffx window is maximized on Windows operating system. [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572160]
    I'm on XP Pro
    It works fine on the minefield for me.
    But in FFX 4 b 9 and 4b 10... tabs are always under the Firefox logo...

    Did you set up using the (bar of tabs above) option "Tabs at the top". Right-click on a toolbar to display the list of toolbars and make sure "Tabs at the top" is selected.

  • Open all the windows maximized

    Not all windows are open maximized. They have done only once, but not now. I move the window to fill the screen and then closed again nothing. Is there a setting for this.

    After you drag a window to the size you want, you must make sure, that it is the last window closed for the size remembered. If another program is open, even if it is reduced, the size does not stick.

    In addition, no matter what shortcut you use to launch the window, right-click and select Properties. Under the 'Run' drop-down list, choose "expanded".

  • Firefox stuck as maximized, "restore down" minimizes the window

    Firefox window is stuck as enlarged, the restore down does not work correctly.

    "restore down" minimizes the window & it won't then return to the screen unless I right click on it on the task bar & then click maximize.
    

    Button reduce works as it should and the window can be restored (maximize) clicking on Firefox in the taskbar.

    When it happened first, I closed Firefox & restarted Windows (Vista). This has not solved the problem

    This is caused by Firefox 'restoration' as a small window "off screen" for some reason any. This bug has existed for a while, but for some reason some has never been properly fixed. Restarts without worrying won't fix because it maintains simply restore the window off screen ever time.

    The work around is to select the window in the task bar, click on 'move' and then press an arrow key. This will bring the window on the screen where it can be relative to the size, most of the time that he wouldn't do it again, it seems to happen more often for me during a restore, but it is a sporadic, so I'm not sure what makes.

  • Size of the window - not maximized, but the size of the screen

    I want my windows always the same size - the full measure of my screen.  In this way, I get the "see thru" effect at the top of the window of the program (title bar?), and the bright edges all around are also transparent effect.  Is there a registry setting, I can define or incorporate into a file of the script editor?  I'd rather have the effect of see-through, but when I have the maximize, the top of the window is black.  As it is now, I always grasp two corners diagonally opposite to the window, and drag them to just the right place.  Maybe there's an easier way? :)

  • Not maximizing the task bar when you click on Windows Explorer

    When I place the mouse on the icon of the program in the taskbar Windows Explorer the small preview window/s is displayed but will not maximize in a large window.  When I click on it or right click "optimize" on the spotted, that nothing is happening.

    In fact, probably we maximize or restore, but off the screen where you can not see.  This happened to me sometimes as well.

    Try this:

    1. hold SHIFT key and right-click on the icon in the task bar (or right click on the preview you did).
    2. choose the entrance to restore if it is not gray.
    3 hold down the SHIFT key and click again on the icon in the taskbar.
    4. now, choose the entry of moving.
    5. without doing anything else, press one of the arrow keys (for example, the arrow on the left) of the keyboard.
    6. without anything click, move the mouse.  Your window should appear on the screen.
    7. click on the mouse to move the window, then you can resize or other to be where you want.

    I suspect that this is a problem in several screen of Windows 7 support, and that the window actually believes that it is off on another monitor, even if you have no other active monitor.

  • Is there a domain in Windows 7 where can I put all the windows to open maximized?

    I was sure that this was true in Folder Options in Control Panel of control-leOutilsmenu.  However when I looked there was no.  Is it still an option in Windows and where can I find it?

    I'm not a global setting, but one of these options will work.
     
     
    Take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.
      
     
    Or: any shortcut you use to launch the window, right-click, and select Properties. Under the 'Run' drop-down list, choose "expanded".
  • the default location of the window popup

    I use a planning site that opens a new window every time I have change or make a reservation. The pop up has always opened in the center of my screen. Last night, it now opens at the bottom of my screen, so I have to drag up to see anything. How can I change the default location where I want? Close the browser has not changed anything about it, restarted my computer has not changed.

    Thanks for the reply, but it turns out that my problem was caused by a much simpler problem.
    The size of the window when not maximized not had been changed and moved to the bottom of the screen. Once I deselected maximize and then corrected the smallest window size and position, the pop-ups are returned to the opening where they shouldn't.

  • There is no diamonds next to the name of the windows in the window menu.

    When I reduce a window, I don't see a diamond next to the window menu. I see the diamond next to page name in the menu of the icon in the dock, but not in the menu of the window itself, which is what I use to select windows. Attached are pictures of the menu icon dock vs the window menu.

    I want to know whether or not the windows are reduced. I reduce windows that I don't need right now, and I don't want to have to scan the list of all the windows to find what I want, I want to know which windows I still have maximized immediately.

    However, I am interested in Firefox now on another machine, and it is not here do either, so it is possible, is not a behavior that is from Firefox, only Chrome and Safari.

  • can't resize the window of firefox, so I can create the shortcut on the desktop

    I don't know how to resize the window smaller, it only makes the impression of the page to the smallest, on the page, not the whole outline of the page, so I can move the symbol to put on the desktop! I used the page resizing in the menu, is there another way to do it? Thank you

    You can see the 3 buttons at the top right of the window frame: (_) to minimize, maximize/restore, close (X)? If these buttons are not visible, Firefox may be in mode "full screen". The F11 key toggles between the normal modes and full screen.

    When you use the middle button on the title bar that toggles between maximized and resizable, is visible in the lower right of the Firefox window? If so, you should be able to click and drag up and to the left to resize the Firefox window. If it is off the screen, you should be able to resize the window in two steps: drag the upper left corner of the window down and to the right, and then drag the window to the top of the screen.

    Not sure it's the right answer, but please give it a try.
