• Setting the default value when a def type strict

  If my Subvi has a control that is be a strict type defined cluster and I saved values in the control as the values by default, how can I change the default values in the type definition (which is empty).  Because this is a strict definition of type, I can't click on items within the cluster and change (for example, click on a table inside the cluster and make an empty array operation.)

  In the attached screenshot, control 'WHEAT meters to Test' is just an array of bunches and I was able to clear the Board.  Control "Data of Capture" is a strict type def.  I want to erase the contents of this control without having to remove the control and add it back with a new instance of the same type strict FED.

  Yes the clusters within the strict type def cluster are also type defs and control over this Subvi is the only place where the default values are in clusters because they have been registered as default values for the control when I was doing developer test on the VI.  All real .ctl files have default values default to them.

  I just realized that even if the objects inside the strict type def cannot be selected with the mouse, right-click operation still works and the values can be modified or deleted.  I don't think I need more help with this problem.

  Thanks to all who responded.

• How can I change default digital and enum values in a Cluster of Def Type Strict?

  I have a Strict Type Def cluster that contains 10 digital controls and a number of enums.  I have changed the default values for the digital controls in the strict Type Def, in customize mode, carried out a 'course values Default do' and did a 'apply changes' and recorded.

  This group is used in various places throughout the project and have not found a way to make the default cluster values change downstream.  Strict control Type (STD) Def seems to have good values on the front panel.  But if I place an instance of this on a white façade and do pass a wire of him in the block diagram with a probe and an indicator, I still get the old default values being passed against the STD.

  and still another approach is mentioned in my nugget on definitions of types found here, where I include this picture

  

  To illustrate how a wrapper around the constant type-def avoids not only the "problem of the explostion" (largely set by the new LV 2011 for display as icon feature) can be used to set the defaults AND allow some documents explain what, where and why.

• Add or remove an element of type strict def changes the default cluster cluster?

  Hi all

  I have a big type strict def cluster.  I put it in a vi with all default values.  The problem is, every time that I add or remove an item from the strict type def, I find the change in values of default cluster, they all went.

  Anyway to fix this?

  Thanks for any help.

  Could join you the "ctl" instead? Also, what is your version of LabVIEW?

• By the way command def of strict type as refnum slot - VI

  I would like to edit various properties of a control of type strict (cluster) def in a Subvi.  For example, I might want to change the colors or flashing property and have the change takes effect on the next level VI.  My first thought was to move a control refnum to the Subvi.  When I created the front panel for the Subvi, I couldn't find a way to define the type of the command refnum.  When I right click and choose 'Select VI class server' I select generic > GObject > control > RefNum > TypedRefNum.  I don't know how to set the specific type of def so that I don't get a class conflict.

  Is there a better way to do this kind of thing?  If not, then what is the right way to assign the type of a control refnum def?

  Thank you, Mark

  Try a generic control on your front panel and then refnum dragging a copy of your typedef on it. Viola '!

• executes the behavior type strict defs

  I am looking for a check on Type Defs and particularly strict Type definitions.

  I inherited code, I need to keep.  It has Strict Type Defs.  I had to return to my manual basics to remember how they worked and was confused for a while and came here.  I think I fixed it now, but if someone can save me, I would appreciate it.

  A type definition strict is a control and you can place an instance of this control in several screws, but each one will be a separate of each other instance of the same type definition, with respect to the values of it.

  The reason why I ask the next question is the project I am now has a strict type def in two screws.  Type def, MasterSelector.ctl, is a cluster of Boolean, which in each VI is read, and then writes in through nodes of property.  There is only one instance of it in the MasterSelectorSwitch.vi and the VTVMSelectorSwitch.vi.  When the MasterSelector.ctl is changed to MasterSelectorSwitch.vi, he makes no changes in the VTVMSelectorSwitch.vi.  It is not persistent more screws if I wanted the def of type to be persistent over many different screws, I put it in the Global.vi.  It is the only way to make persistent changes on the screw.

  Is this the correct behavior of the Type Defs?

  Thank you, Brian

  Brian,

  could you please send your example, including the def type?

  What I meant by "cannot change the appearance of the control" is that the control can change its values; Properties such as color, size and training are defined by the strict definition of type and cannot be changed for instances; using (low) type definitions, you might...

  Each instance can have different values, however. Therefore, type definitions and custom controls cannot be used to transfer data.

  hope this helps,

• programmatically change the def type

  I inherited program that I'm editing with the least amount of change.  One of the controls is used in all of the auxiliary of the screw, and it's a def type.  It's a cluster containing three groups.  I want to programmatically change the limits of data entry on one of the digital controls in one of the clusters of void.  I can't get to the point where I can create a node property to do this.

  The type of data you get from the [] Controls property is a generic control. You must cast to a cluster.

• How can I get the changed data in a def type control containing an Xcontrol with a local variable

  Hello

  I did an Xcontrol and I inserted this control in a def type.

  When I want to change the data of the control with a local variable in a VI the VI change nothing. The change of the data is not complete

  How can I fix this problem?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  What is your version of LabVIEW? You have a simple example program that demonstrates this behavior?

  I found an other discussions related to your problems with Xcontrols:

  update of type defs Xcontrol faade

  No data change event generated for an XControl in a Type definition

  XControl facede.vi

  I hope this helps.

  Kind regards

• No vertical scroll bar in my def of type strict?

  Not sure why, but my bar vertical scrollbar in my table seems to disappear.  I activated too.  Anyone know what gives?

  Thank you!

  

  I guess that you moved it under main control while customizing the typedef.

  Open the window-> show window parts, find Y scrollbar in the list, it will highlight it. Move with the arrow keys or enter the coordinated outdoor main command.

• def type change is updated to all connected controls?

  Hi all

  I create one type def on a cluster in which digital, string, array, and error output will be contained. I save as type def. (*.ctl). I drag the *.ctl file to a new VI which will create a copy. Later if I change the file ctl of origin (for example to change the label of the controls inside), change will be reflected in all controls, as mentioned in the help "when you save a custom control or an indicator in a type definition, all data changes you make to the type definition affect all instances of the type definition in all the screws that use it." I wonder if this is true for all change of ownership or only for certain goods. I try, for example, to change the display format of data (e.g. scientific), change the size of controls or even replace regular inspections with silver counterpart. I found that the changes will not reflect in all instances connected.

  PS after the changes, I click on 'apply changes' and save the ctl but the same result

  This link might help. Try instead a definition of strict type.

• Function editor does not support the pointer to the digital type

  Am I missing something or is it true that the CVI function Panel Editor does not support specifying a type parameter as a pointer of type number?

  I see no reason why he wouldn't or shouldn't.  It supports the pointer to char.  And it supports a table name (which, in C, is a pointer to the first element of the array).

  I guess I could use the array form as a pointer, but surely it's confusing when dealing with a simple pointer to a numeric scalar type.

  I am using the function Panel Editor only for the purpose of creating a dictionary of type so I can call functions DLL in VB.  Y at - he know somewhere how CVI types could are mapped to the VB types when you use the type dictionary?   for example, what happens if I use an unsigned int in a function parameter (VB does not support unsigned integers)?

  Menchar

  Hi Menchar,

  To create a pointer to an integer as a parameter to a function panel, you have two different options.

  First of all, all output parameters are defined as the default pointers.  So if you create an output parameter of type "int", he creates a ' int *' parameter.

  Second, if you want it to appear in the entry list, you can create a data type in CVI which will appear at the bottom of the list.  Data types to change your data types, go to the Options"(you must have a function Editor tab open and selected Panel to make this option available).  Enter the name of the type (in this case ' int * ') and click the Add button.  The new "int *" option should now appear at the bottom of the list.

  Third, you can use the array form (int []), but as you say, which can be confusing for other people looking at the code.  Or the other of the two first options are better choices.

  As for your second question, here's a link to a page MSDN showing types in Visual Basic and their representations .NET: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/47zceaw7 (VS.80) .aspx.  This allows to make a comparison between VB and ANSI C data types.  For example, to ask on unsigned integers, and this site shows that Visual Basic has an Integer type (-2,147,483,648 through 2,147,483,64) and an unsigned return, UInteger (between 0 and 4 294 967 295).  From what I can tell, VB has signed versions of all its digital representations.  You can then take this with a list of ANSI C data types to convert between the two.  A list of ANSI C data types can be found here: http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/c-language/c-programming-language-data-types.html

• The mouse pointer disappears when you type.

  When I'm composing an email, the cursor becomes empty on the page, but not on the rest of the screen.

  you have a parameter the value "hide the pointer when typing"

  to restore it, click Start, click Control Panel, click the mouse, click the pointer options, uncheck the "Hide pointer while typing" and click OK.

• Scripting - refer to a Strict Type Def control

  Hi - I need to automate some sorting and the strict removal of functions in a def type of an enum control I have. I would like to write some programs to deal with this rather that enter the definition of the type of control and do everything manually.  The fact that a person can do those through the Edit dialog box tells me that you should be able to access these methods through script.

  Thus, the fundamental question is; How can I get a reference to this control?

  Thank you

  Dan

  A custom control is actually a VI, so use the reference open VI and give the path to the typedef. VI reference resulting allows to get the reference of the actual control on the FP, and then call the Save Instruments on the VI method when you are finished.

• Where is my def of semaphore type?

  Hi all, I have an embarrassing problem involving a strict type of semaphore def indicator. I use LV2011 SP1.

  I recently loaded several versions of a job that a colleague developed approximately 10 years on my computer. I did experiments with the latest version, mainly as an exercise.

  Naturally, I have backups of all the code, and I was working was actually a special, renamed copy just for safety.

  In total there are 6 separate labview projects covering several generations of employment, and they all ran.

  One of the things I was looking at was the use of two semaphores. These are used by getting a semaphore and then put it in a hidden flag. When the semaphore is necessary a ref to the indicator and a property node are used to retrieve the semaphore to acquire and release. LabVIEW actually creates a strict type def, instead of a clear indicator when you do this. This type def comes from the Semaphor.llb in the folder of the usefulness of the VI library.

  In my experiences I had disconnected the def type indicator, turning it into a clear indicator. He broke the VI, so I tried to undo the disconnection. It did not work. No problem, I thought.

  I closed the VI without saving it and reopened it expects to find the def type back in place. It wasn't. I then looked at the suite to find why the VI was broken and discovered that all references semaphore had disappeared from the block diagram. In fact, missing the referees for the two semaphores (I changed only one).

  I wasn't always too concerened because I had a lot of back ups that me is outsourced. But when I looked more VI, I discovered that each copy of the VI in each project had now broken in exactly in the same way.

  Then I the repaced with our backup system backups, but once I ran all projects has been broken in the same way.

  Then, I took out an old laptop with labview installed and ran back up to this point, without any problem.

  I then went back to my original broken VI experimental and replaced missing officials with new ones for normal semaphore flags and the VI is represented.

  If I create a new semaphore and the indicator on the laptop, it creates a strict type def, which seems to be OK. But if I do it on my computer it creates only a normal indicator.

  It seems as if somehow labview has lost the ability to connect to the def of type in the semaphor. Bachelor of law (it's still there, I checked). I also tried to create a regular flag and replace it with the type def in the llb. I find the type definition, but it cannot replace with it.

  Another thing I tried was to create the type indicators def in a VI on the laptop and then copy the VI on my computer. Indicators became normal on my computer.

  I'm sure that if I uninstall and reinstall Labview things will just come, but I hope that there is an easier and faster way. For me, it was suggested that somewhere there is an option to choose what type of indicator is the product which I changed somehow, but if so I can't find it!

  I hope that someone will help solve this problem.

  Jonathan.

  I haven't used semaphores, so I'm not familiar with this file individual .llb.  I'm a little surprised that it will create strict typedefs.

  My thought is that sometimes you accidentally changed the status of this reference typedef and got it rerecorded in the .llb file.  Look at the dates of files of the semaphor.llb on your computer problem and which behaves very well.  Who could tell you.

  Try to copy the file semaphor.llb from the PC during the work at the computer that is having problems.  (Do it with all your files and LabVIEW closed just to be sure there is no accidental error cross-linking).

• Ring type constant def not updated for LabVIEW 2010 SP1

  I have a problem with the update of the control ring LV 2010 SP1 constants.  If I change the values or names of elements of a ring of control that has the defined type (type def or type strict def) my constant schema do not update.  The constants are set to Auto-Update of type def and if I right click on the constant, change to a control and then back to a constant, they update very well.  And if I have a control/indicator on the comic it refreshes also very well.

  Anyone else seen this problem or can someone seeks to duplicate?
