Question of tree control column - hot/indicator

Is it possible to have some columns in a tree control will be hot (Edition) and others as indicators (no parameter)?  It seems as if all columns (except the first column "0th") must be all hot or all indicators.  I also looked in the attributes of the cell, and there is no way to make cells either as hot or indicators indiviidual either (like Table controls).

I noticed that the elements can be mitigated using tho attribute ATTR_CELL_DIMMED, which gives a behavior similar to what I'm looking for (the user cannot change the value of the cell), but also gives the cell a greyed look.  I tried to manually adjust the appearance of the cell back to what I would (IE ATTR_LABEL_TEXT to black), but of course, it didn't have an effect.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

You can choose the columns and cells you want to change using the tree callback function, if you have a CVI 2009 or later. You can use ATTR_TREE_RUN_STATE and ATTR_TREE_EDITABLECELLS inside the EVENT_LEFT_CLICK (and probably EVENT_LEFT_DOUBLE_CLICK too) to achieve this. I enclose a simple project with a tree that you can edit the first column of a double-click, the 2nd column with a single click and you can not change the data in column 3 at all. You can even specify individual cells make you it editable if that's what you wanted to do.

  • Edit Tree Control Question, specific cells

    Hello

    I have a question on the modification of tree controls.

    I have played around with the properties and to date have not thought to it. That's what I'm doing:

    I have a tree with multi-column control.

    The columns are essentially: name, Description, value 1 and value 2

    I want to do is be able to select the value 1 and value 2 and change them individually on each line.

    I want to be able to change the name and Description.

    What I was able to do so far is the editable table and every time I get the string in the active cell regardless of the cell that I click in returns always the value of the first column.

    I had this problem by making my changes of value by calling a pop-up box and change the values, but I would rather simplify it by editing the tree.

    I can't give my real code, but if it helps I can make an example facsimile...

    Here's a suggestion:

    -tour of the edition on the tree cell

    -When the clicks double user on a cell, if the column index is 2 or 3 then set the position of the appropriate cell editing

    see this: (in this example, I'm not filtering the column index, but I'm sure that you'll be able to add this feature)

  • How to get the position of a ring in a tree control?

    Okay, this is probably a stupid question, but how can we get the position of a ring within a tree control?  I have a tree with two columns, with rings in the second column.  I can set the position using SetTreeCellRingValueFromIndex(), but how do you get the position once the user has changed the control?  I found the functions GetTreeCellRingIndexFromValue() and GetTreeCellRingValueFromIndex(), but I have not found a way to get the Index or the value of the ring (I'm looking for is the index, but if I can get the value I can from there).  Thanks in advance!

    You can get the value of the cell in the tree of GetTreeCellAttribute (ATTR_LABEL_TEXT). Then, as you noted, you can use GetTreeCellRingIndexFromValue() to get the index.

    I hope this helps.

  • chain of the evil tree control

    Hello

    I have problems with a tree control. Watch my vi, select a line and start the vi. Now, select a line after another and look at the values.

    The tag is fair, but the string is incorrect or is not available.

    Is this a bug. Or what is the problem?

    Greetings

    Schwede

    Schwede,

    You must define the number of the current column to 0 once at the beginning (before entering the loop).

    Some time would have been nice also...

    hope this helps,

  • How do you get the tag line in last-one click on a tree control?

    The API for tree controls is infuriatingly obtuse.

    In response to an event initiated by the tree control, I need to query the currently selected item in the tree and get his tag, so I can handle the element and its children. How this is done? I found the method of 'Set the tag', but there is no Tag «get» In fact, the only way to get the tag of any element seems to be through the 'Point to the column line' method, which takes a pair of coordinates entry component! It's confusing!

    Oh hell. Value of tree is the tag of the element currently selected. It's so easy that I never thought to look there for it, given the complexity of almost all other actions in the API.

    * sigh *.

  • Tree control: how to change an element

    I know how to create a tree. It's very pretty.

    The next natural step is to edit something:

    For this example, let's say I have a level superior element called 'Rob' and he has two children "Nora" and "Caleb". The names are the values of the "chain of cell to the left" and tags, we will tell you. Nora is 4 years old, Caleb is 1, so when I create the tree I make tables 1 d of these values and put them in "text of the child".

    Now, I leave the program going until the beginning of November and the day of the anniversary of Nora I want to programmatically change the '4' to a '5 '.

    There are methods add an element and remove the element, but no method of Edit Item.

    Call me puzzled. This happens on the list of 10 things.

    Meanwhile, someone would have an answer to my quandry? Thanks in advance.

    Follow-up: When I invoke add something, I have a string output. What is c? The tag assigned, I guess? Aid does not mention it. It's a trick question, because I don't actually think it is possible, given the add part function works when you call it twice in a row with the same entries.

    P.S. "you're a jerk" is certainly a reasonable response to this post.

    I played a bit with tree controls. You're right, they are not really intuitive.

    Here is an example of one that I go fairly reliable... http://decibel.NI.com/content/servlet/JiveServlet/download/3968-1-4990/m3u%20playlist%20generator.LL...

    I think you need to do is on the tag active that you want to change (property node) "Active: element tag.

    Then you can write to the property "Active celltring '.

  • Sparks tree control: ETA?

    This question is for the SDK team:

    Is there an ETA for a spark-based tree control? The project that I'm trying is heavily based on the tree control. In the last 6 months I've tweaked and customize the control tree 60 ways to Sunday. It has exposed a number of problems and bugs in the control, and by all accounts, it seems that Adobe will not address these in the future.

    Every day I fight these issues with the tree. Simple stuff can be very difficult.

    I propose that the project be migrated to Flex 4, for many reasons. However, the question has been raised by the stakeholders, who are aware of the issues that we have struggled on the current control, is when the Spark version will be released. I don't have an answer.

    Thank you

    It won't in 4.5, probably the release after.

  • Tree control mode: Returns a validation event when the NORMAL value

    CVI 2013: I am writing a software to change the command tree modes based on the user's selection. I noticed that when the command is set to NORMAL, I got a "EVENT_COMMIT". Just for reference, I am using a custom control - group of Radio buttons, but the bug (I'm assuming that) is in the tree control are I forgot something?

    An application of Corrective Action (CAR) has been filed for this behavior. His number is 578618. You can monitor the condition of this CAR by checking the notes Readme or release new versions and checking the bug fixes section.

  • Cannot create a control or the indicator for a refnum of the display of images in LabView

    I need to move a refnum to a control to display the Image, but find that I can not create a control or an indicator for such refnum.  I can create the refnum without problem, and when I right click on the refnum I gives me the options to create a command or the indicator; However, when I select one of these options no command or the indicator is created.

    I am running XP.  I installed Vision 8.6 at a given time, but had to uninstall because it damaged this control.  I don't know if it affects this type of control to a lower level.

    You can probably do it the hard way by using workaround.  Convert your reference to a Variant or flatten it into a string or cataloged full - some LV allows.  In the Subvi, convert it back into a reference.
