Position of the control is displayed differently on Windows XP and Win7

When I created my application to run on Windows 7, all the controls were in the correct position. But when I ran my executable under Windows XP, changed position of some controls. Four controls are aligned to bottom when I created them.

See the attached screenshots.

Any suggestions?

As others have pointed out, the fonts change between systems.  What works for me is the following:

I added these lines in each file ' C:\Program Files (x 86) \National xxx\LabVIEW.ini "on my system (v7.1.1 thru 2015)

appFont = "Tahoma" 13
dialogFont = "Tahoma" 13
systemFont = "Tahoma" 13
FPFont = "Tahoma" 13
BDFont = "Tahoma" 13

I includes the execution of the VI attached as a 'generation of the post action"as part of the build process EXE.

If you use based on a remote browser (IE, Firefox, Chrome) before panels then you will also find that you must set the default font in the browser to match.

In Windows 7, at least, the other parameter that can affect the appearance of the GUI is located on the display of Windows Control Panel.   Any setting other than the Smaller/100% (usually 96 DPI) setting may cause certain text values to fill in their text boxes.

  • The button behavior is different between Windows 8 and Windows 7

    Hello

    I'm developing an application that runs on Windows 7 and Windows 8. This application is intended to be used with a touch screen. Users must make choice of a ListView.

    With Windows 7, everything works fine. Items are selected when the user clicks on it.

    Things are different on Windows 8. If the user do not type in the center of the item (IE, if the finger touches simultaneously two elements), Windows seems to think that the selection is ambiguous and does not select anything. This is particularly problematic when the list contains small pieces of interface user, in which case the user must be very specific by touching the screen.
     
    Is it possible to disable this behavior, or reduce the radius of ambiguity?

    Thank you

  • position of the control

    Hi all

    I need to know the position of the control on the Panel frontal wrt the screen and not the Panel. Currently, if I have a chart on a FP, and I use the 'Position' property, it returns the top and left position of the wrt Control Panel. I need the position of the control on the screen and not the Panel.

    How can I get this information?

    Thank you

    Ritesh

    You have to take the position of the front panel (use the FP Panel limits) and then take the position of the control so add the top and left values of positions, there you go you've got the position of the order with respect to the screen.

    Note: All doing this keep the origin of the left and top FP exactly meets the edges of the Panel so that you can get the actual position.

    Hello

    Which, in my view, that you have a problem with, it's called windows Flip 3D!

    Try this first and see how you go...

    1. To turn on the Quick Launch bar, follow these steps:
    2. Right-click anywhere on an empty spot on the taskbar.
    3. Choose toolbars from the menu that appears.
    4. Select Quick Launch in the following menu so that it is checked.

    You should then be able to click the icon to switch between Windows now and use the 3d Flip...

    Or

    . Right click on the Quick Launch toolbar, but not on an icon
    2. Select the folder from the context menu. It will take you to the Quick Launch folder that should live:

    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

    3. right click in an empty area of this folder
    4. Select new, then shortcut from the context menu
    5. for the location text box, enter the following text:

    C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe dwmapi #105

    6. click on the next button
    7. appoint. (Flip3D, for example)
    8. click on finish

    The shortcut will now be in your Quick Launch toolbar.

  • The FTP.EXE program included in Windows 7 and Server 2008 help the PASV Mode connection

    What is the FTP.EXE program included in Windows 7 and Server 2008 helps to connect in PASV Mode?

    I ask because I had a strange experience with her. First, I will mention that I did hours of research and found many articles stating that it does not work in XP/2000/Server 2003, but I found nothing for Windows 7 or Server 2008.

    I found some people who kept him at work and others who could not. I tried with Windows Firewall turned off and will be on and firewall rules created. Others said it is not supported and that I should use a third-party FTP client. I could make it work in Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer. I am well aware of the situation these options in Internet Explorer.

    Here are the best real, I could run from the command line on my PC Windows 7 (32 bit), but not on Server 2008 64 bit.

    Now, before someone comes and asks me to check the firewall, I want to mention that I tried more than five clients of third-party FTP Server 2008 and they all worked perfectly. In addition, from the same Server 2008 it worked fine in IE and explore.

  • my 500 vacation photos are now on the lists section of the control panel-display wallpaper how to make their return to which they belong?

    Downloaded the camera vacation photos and sorted by them by putting each location days in it is a separate file. I also received a disc of NASA just with scenes of wallpaper on it and downloaded it.  These points of view, NASA, to another disc I changed once a week. I keep them in a separate folder named desktop wallpaper photos, in my position of photos. I went to change this view for weeks and not only discovered that all these photos have been in the display list folder / in Control Panel, but also all the pictures in the files of our holiday, which should have been in the image file in my documents. There are also pictures of my family photos files that are in the selection of wallpaper from the 'view' file in the documents.  I will return to my pictures folder and there not a file here for them, which means that it is not a copy of the file, but the actual file. I did not do in the lists of display/control panels. How can I remove or cut pictures that came the wallpaper display lists and put them in the my documents/images files where they should be. Tried to cut and paste functionality, but nothing of this nature appears.

    Hello

    Navigate to the folder where the photos are and then right-click on the image and click on copy and then open the folder My Documents/photo then right-click and press on paste.  Since you have a lot of picctures you can hold CTRL and left click each photo in this way they need only hit copy once.

  • Get the position of the control in the window of the façade

    Hello

    I have the window façade divided with dispatchers on several components. On a glass, I have a button (and an overlay window) I want to move programmatically at run time. I would like to get the position of the button according to the coordinate system of façade, but to my knowledge, no such property exists. I know that I can calculate the position if I calculate the position of each knife (or component) that is between the origin of the façade and the button, but it takes a lot of time if you have many such cases.

    Any ideas are appreciated.

  • How to get an icon on the Desktop Web. I have windows 7 and 8 on different computers.

    I asked this question repeatedly in stores and friends and tells me that it is possible by clicking on the web address, however, it would seem that Firefox does not happen because I was only able to do so far. I used to be able to do it on Xp but now find it impossible. I use this facility to allow me to access a web page immediately instead of having to go through the search or a bookmark. I'm having the same problem with windows 8 on a different machine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    There are several way to do.

    • 1 hold down the left mouse on the icon in the address bar, and then move the icon on your desktop and let go.

  • Question about the control panel user accounts in windows 7.

    This might be a bit of a strange question, but I'll see what I get. Basically when I enter the control panel via my username (not the admin account) and click on "Add or remove user accounts" and enter a password to admin, the photos on my user and admin account both fail (but they are there on the log on screen, etc.). But the guest account (which is disabled) the image of bag of comments showing. But if I enable the guest account, the image disappears. Strange. Any ideas how to get the pictures to show up there?

    Also, I will add that this occurs only in the standard user, not my account Admin accounts I converted my standard account to an administrator account, and the pictures then decided to appear.

  • Display driver hangs on the computer and the error message "display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 306.97 has stopped working and recovered."

    Original title: NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 306.97 display driver has stopped working and recovered.

    Hiya,

    I have recently installed Windows 8 Pro, installed all of my usual applications etc..
    The problem I've encountered is maintaining display driver crashing. Or have waiting periods. The exact error message reads;
    "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 306.97 has stopped working and recovered."
    Until now it expires randomly even when the computer is idle, and more frequently when I watch videos online. Also, watch a clip full screen on some sites like YouTube is ok, but on others, it is very laggy (updated maybe once per second the image) and the sound is out of sync.
    I can't find a way to properly uninstall the graphics driver.

    At least yours is working semi... I have the GTS 450 (uses the same drivers) and the mine does not at all... Stuck with the regular game pilot integrated ATM and can not all games... Microsoft told me to wait a few weeks and for the reminder and Nvida said 10 ways to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for same. Hope someone with to get a fix for this soon.

    Hi guys,.
    Looks like this isn't just me.
    Just an update, that I can not confirm it as a solution, but I have not encountered any problem (a little screenlag aside) since the installation of the drivers beta. For me, the beta version of the driver is 310.33, R130. The only other change to my system updates Adobe Flash version packaged with Google Chrome to 11.4.31X to 11.4.402 to eliminate serious problems when you watch the video in full screen.
    Information system;
    Operating system: Windows 8 Build Pro with Media Center 64-bit, 9200
    CPU: AMD FX-8150 eight physical cores
    GPU: ASUS NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 TI
    Main hard drive: OCZ Vertex 3 120 GB

    Edit: Still not falling down, 11/02/12, 4 days

    New edition;

    If you still receive the error message, try the following steps;
    Has. try to perform a clean installation of the driver.
    Download the latest drivers for your graphics card. Run the downloaded file, and select "Custom Installation". In the next screen, you will see a checkbox or similar labeled "Clean Install".
         

    You can do so by visiting nVidia Driver Downloads (www.nvidia.com/Drivers). Automatically detect the right driver or download using the form. The best way in my opinion is to use the GeForce experience, who will do anything for you in two clicks and a reboot.
    B. close all other programs
    It is possible that the error was caused by too many programs that need to use the resources provided by the graphics card/chip. It is also possible that a certain program caused a conflict that pilots crashed.
    You can try closing some currently open programs one by one and see if the error persists, or restart your system with disabled startup programs and allow them one by one to find the culprit. If the error is too persistent to do the above, it would be easier to start in safe mode option.
