Project Explorer: organizing items from files

Unfortunately, I do not know the first thing about using Project Explorer. Why seems to be two parallel systems for organizing my work?

Should I concentrate on the Organization logically parts of a project as elements? or as files?

Or should I have two different approaches to the Organization, using one with the elements and the other with files?

Or if I set one of them, Project Explorer will automatically organize the other must match? For example I organize items and then let Project Explorer create or manage autopopulating files to imitate?

I read things like "Best practices for management NI LabVIEW Applications using the Project Explorer", but I keep getting lost in the details like conflict and not see the forest for the trees.

I'm either working by myself or, sometimes, with another person. We do not use source code control. I often create copies of everything and store them outside the search area of the LV so I can go back to earlier versions if necessary. I know, I want to do with the Project Explorer includes the creation of executable files and things that I can distribute (which so far I made on small projects without real organization, have all the files in the same folder), and also painful household as remove all obsolete screws who no longer have the appellants. I hear people praise Project Explorer so probably if I'm the point of it I would get a lot more use.

So, if the Project Explorer fans could point me in the right direction, I'm hearing everything and would be very grateful! Thank you!

It is up to you to find the best method for the use of the Project Explorer. What I found to be most useful for basic information is the following:

1. I save the screws, I work with in a local folder on disk

2. in the Project Explorer, I am usually at the display of elements

3. I add my high level screw (right click on desktop > Add > file...) and the Project Explorer will automatically fill with my subVIs dependencies

It gives me a small window (Explorer) which contains a list of my screws of high level, and I can access any subVIs in dependencies folder.  I could create virtual folders (right click on desktop > New > virtual folder) to classify and organize my screws more far.

That leaves me with all my screws stored in the same location on the disk and a central access point I can handle.

Usually, I only use the display of the files in order to find the physical location of my files, but since I saved them all in the same folder, it is generally not a big consideration.

  • First file type of the elements for organizing items

    I use the editor and organizer of PSE13 (for photos and films). I recently bought the first elements 13 and just edited my first film.

    I would like to only first Elements of access via the Photoshop Elements Organizer, but I'm not sure what file type to save my first editing of files, so that they can be imported and marked in the elements Organizer and also played through the elements Organizer.

    I want to just run an organizer. Is this possible and what should I save my first finals as after having been edited files. (in the same way that I save a PSD file JPG once editing is finished in the element Editor.)

    Thank you

    Your choice of export in order to comply with the support of the elements Organizer seems to limit for me. But...

  • Automator: using a text file to set several items from the finder?

    Hello

    what I would do:

    I have a text file that contains multiple entries for files and folders, each on a separate line. I want to dragndrop this file on an automator action, he should ask me a destination folder and then copy all the files and folders in this folder.

    I have my action, automator, set up like this:

    Elements of the open Finder

    Get the content of the TextEdit Document

    Copy to the Clipboard (I have not found another way to keep my text sort file values and let it not be crushed by the following, but it works)

    Quit the Application (TextEdit)

    Ask the Finder items (this requires a destination folder)

    Set the value of the Variable (Destination)

    Get the contents of the Clipboard

    Copies the items from the Finder (at Destination)

    It all works, but only when there is 1 entry in my text file. As soon as I have 2 lines of text, I get the following error message:

    The action "copy Finder items" has not provided with the required data.

    How can I make this work with multiple entries?

    The problem is that you only pass the only element to the copy action (you have copied text), instead of an element for each line (paragraph) in the text.  The solution is to use the action filter paragraphs to break up along the borders of paragraph text, which will give you a list of items.  In addition, you do not necessarily have to use TextEdit or the Clipboard - If you already have a file somewhere, you can simply use the action to combine text files to read the text.

    With the above modifications, your workflow should look like:

    Ask the Finder items  (ask for a destination folder)

    Set the value of the Variable  (Destination)

    Ask the Finder items  (Download text files) - set the action to ignore the entry

    Combine text files  (read the text files)

    Filter paragraphs  (paragraphs which are not empty return)

    Copy the items to the Finder  (at Destination)

  • Project Explorer fails with vi (displayed as file folder)

    Hi people of LabVIEW,.

    I have a behavior very strang of the Project Explorer. (LV 8.5.1f4)

    He has a problem with one of my voluntary initiatives.

    I stripped the VI downwards until it is now empty, but the problem persists.

    (I have several projects, I use the original file, so my problem multiplies )

    When I add this VI to an empty project, one of my folders (Entwicklung) does not appear as a folder anymore but as a VI (file).

    This seems to happen in the fourth folder above the file.

    In addition: if I copy this file in a directory with less then 3 files and try to add it to a LabVIEW project crashes.

    If it's in the third case, the driverletter is Eurorest as a file.

    The software works well even in application, but this effect results, that I cannot save a project to a new location! (Even the recommended method to save it in an earlier version, and then select 8.5 as version does not work)

    I need to create a package source code for a customer the first time now, and I am unable to do so.

    (I've always said that they will be open pandoras box if they provide code source for a client, but who care about what is in my opinion I'm just a stupid engineer)

    Please someone would be so kind and try to understand what is the problem with this VI?

    I tried already and suggests it has to do with its relative path, but I do not see a possibility to access directly.

    Thanks in advance,

    Best regards

    Hi elsie,

    Right-click on the shortcut, the program, or folder, then click on remove.  That's all.  If this does not work, try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder/shortcut: Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php these programs often work when the functions of removing normal do not work correctly.

    If it still does not work, try a clean boot (Vista and W7) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135. If you delete the file, then the problem was that there was a conflict or it cannot be deleted because it is run.  Once don't forget to reset your system back to the normal state, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work. If you are using XP, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434.

    If this does not work, then start safe mode and try to delete the component of office from there (assuming it to be displayed).  If this does not work, you will need to log in as an administrator and try to delete the item in Windows Explorer in the C:\Users\\Desktop folder for this user and perhaps also any user originally installed the software (perhaps the administrator account).  It may be necessary to do both clean or Safe Mode boot mode (and using the extraordinary remove programs mentioned above as well).

    I believe one of the above will work (and hope the answer is one of the simplest at the top rather than the more complicated to those who follow).

    If you want to remove the underlying program that applies an executable or shortcut icon, go to Control Panel / programs and features.  Find the program is no longer you want, right-click on it and select delete or uninstall or delete (all that appears) and that should also remove the program and probably/possibly the icon at the same time.  Be careful here if - because if you upgrade the program, remove the program related to the icon or folder, if he got somehow placed on the desktop instead of Program Files (unless completely separate program updated as shown in programs and features - so you see both an old and a new version) could cause problems with the new program.  In essence, don't forget when you delete what you really want to delete and it removes this and nothing else.  I recommend the creation of a system restore point before you do.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How can I remove an item from the death of the select icons and notifications appear in the taskbar?

    When I open "Select icons and notifications appear in the task bar" one of the things it lists is "GLBD565.tmp" which seems to be left by the installation of a software product.  The icon is not active and I doubt if it still exists, but it appears in the list.  That list is maintained and how to remove the dead of her spots?

    The entries to Customize Notifications cannot be removed selectively. You can, however, clear the set lists by using the following registry change.

    1. Click Start, type regedit in the Search box and press ENTER.

      Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify HKEY_CURRENT_USER

    I want to save video projects in 13 items to locations on my hard drive. How do I do that?

    pweman

    What is the associated operating system your 13 items first? Have you updated 13 to 13.1 still using Help Menu/updates to date of an open project?

    For now, I will assume first elements 13/13.1 on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, or 10 64-bit.

    I'll answer as you asked, regarding registration of project files first elements 13/13.1 to a custom location instead of the default Documents, Adobe, first, 13 items, 0.

    1. open a new project working space Expert, go to Menu/save as, name the project, and set the location save in.

    or

    2. open a new project in the workspace Expert, go to file Menu/New/Project and the new project dialog box, which allows you to set a location record in custom for the file project as the project name. Here, you can change the settings to manually set the predefined project if the project is do not do it correctly based on his analysis of the properties of the first file slipped to its timeline.

    Just in case, see Edit Menu/preferences/Scratch disks which you can set with the same name as the project.

    Adobe Premiere Elements help. Working with "scratch disks"

    Just in case, consider pointing each project and record assets at its own folder to your location record in. This will make it easier when you decide to don't want don't not project any longer.

    If by chance, you should ask on the registration of exports from the project, please see the location record in the area of export settings.

    Please review and consider. Any questions, feel free to ask.

    Thank you.
