• Range of display on the right click function

  I am currently using VIPM to install reusable code in LabVIEW palettes. I notice that with many functions, LabVIEW, I can right-click and have the ability to click to view the range where this function appears. I have not found how I can achieve this for my own additions. Is this possible?

  For the benefit of anyone else interested in this issue, I found the answer now with Thoric in the recent Cambridge LabVIEW user group. That I had was the "Default" Palette to the class or library that is located on the General Settings page.

  Either way, however, the latest version of the Package of VI Manager, this made it easier and this can now be set when creating a package. See Add the library Palette or class.

• Right click mouse to drag and drop or rename folders and files does not work

  For a few weeks now, I had problems with the right click function to drag - move files and folders, or rename files and folders. This happens when I use windows Explorer or access to the computer and click thruogh for a feature. He can't go to all the folders and files, but many. I can't right click on these folders or files to change the sharing because explore closes and restarts on the desktop with a right-click. Manifest error "appcrash" reason. I have Norton Security suite installed and neither Norton or your fix program detects a problem.

  Please notify.

  Have you installed or removed/uninstalled all hardware or software or drivers since just before the start of this problem (if so, exactly what - name, version, device, whatever)?  Norton take any infection, although it is said that he cleaned their since just before the problem started?  If so, you know the names of these infections?

  Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.  It's been a while so I'm not sure that you have a fairly old restore point but it is possible - hopefully.

  Are these files and folders in your user profile?  If Yes, your user profile may become corrupted (in fact, if can still be corrupted if the folders are not there).  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  If that is the only available Administrator Profile (you need to be an administrator to fix this), enable the Hidden Administrator Account (HAA) using http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_passwords&p=1&tid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055&mid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055.  If you don't remember the password, try nothing because that's probably what you (or seller) did during the installation.  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

  We will check some of your system files and hard drive for ccorruption that may be the cause:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  Try to put all the corrupt files here so that we can see if they can be repaired with good copies of the installation disc (unless there are too many).

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  She might want to plan itself to start at the next startup.  Okay, then restart so that the program can run. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  Please checkwith the manufacturer to find out if there is a mouse driver updated (software or firmware) available for your make and model of mouse and your version of Vista.  Download and install to update the driver to the most recent available and see if that solves the drag and drop problem (even though I know that this will not affect the question of the name change).  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

  If it doesn't (or if SFC detects corruption it cannot repair), we you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version of the system came with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to make a record of slipstream as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

  I hope this helps.

• Using the mouse, the right click button is continually pressed inadvertently

  While using the mouse, the right click button is continually pressed inadvertently.  IS THERE A WAY TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL CLICK RIGHT TO ACTIVATION?

  If the manufacturer of your laptop includes options for your touchpad, I would check those to see if the right click function can be turned off or customized how make you these options I can't tell you, because Microsoft is not build to tap keys or options software for them.  Only your PC manual or manufacturer can tell you exactly how to set these options (if they exist).

• Is there a way to disable the ability to right-click on an image and copy it.  I create websites for photographers and artists here to prevent copying of the images.

  I used to use 3 SiteGrinder before they went bankrupt.  All the widgets gallery that allows for disabling the right-click function.  I now use the Muse and love, but it would be fantastic if Muse had such a feature.  Maybe it's there and I just didn't.  Also I have not checked all the market after widgets to see if any have the feature.

  Thank you

  John

  Words MylenIin is correct, if a little condescending. You can also deter the casual right clicker by adding a rectangle without fill on top of your images or creation of all your site images using a filled rectangle, as the images are rendered in a different way that prevents them being recorded.

• Paste my function no longer works. Turn it off. I can't right click and paste or control c. What should I do?

  I was able to copy / paste with no problems until today. None of the functions copy or paste work no matter how I use them. If I pointed out and use the C command or if I right click it shows copy but will not display the function paste. V control does nothing. nothing shows up on the clip board either, so it is really a problem copying. Thank you
