Set the Position of the cursor in the Console (console or Windows default or CVI) window

Hi all

I'm working on a project for my college class with a large amount of data acquisition. Unfortunately, the part of the assignment asks to do entirely in the console rather than through a User Interface.

I've programmed in C++ and have used the command gotoxy(). However, this is not part of the ANSI C standard. I can't find any additional information about the position of the cursor in C or CVI standards. Is it possible to position the cursor in CVI? If I have to, I'll resort to create a matrix of character as a screen buffer and encode them manually.

Thanks again!

CVI 8.5

These functions are part of the windows kernel. simply #include . If you get a link error, these functions should be in 'kernel32.lib' comes with LabWindows/CVI: Add kernel32.lib to the project and everything should be good (search folder x:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\ to locate, its complete location depends on the version of the CVI you use).

of course, this means that you must install the Windows SDK: it is an option in the installer of LabWindows/CVI. (you can also download the Windows SDK from the microsoft Web site, but you would be better with one that comes with CVI).

a short guide on the documentation for the Windows SDK: each function is documented in a single page on every page of documentation for function, there is always a short summary at the end of the page telling you how to use the function: which header file you include, what library file, you must link with and on what version of Windows , the function is supported. Unfortunately, until the CVI 8.5.1 (I don't know for the CVI 9.0), the documentation for the SDK does not include the table of contents, which prevents to find something useful, unless you know what you are looking for the function.

  • Cannot set the search index location Windows 7

    After you perform a partition merge, I discovered that I can't set the Windows 7 search index location.

    What seems to happen is that the "disappearance" of the partition where the search index had been stored caused Windows to 'lose' the location of the index. What I mean is that the dialog box that usually shows the index location and where it would normally go on the definition of a new location, is empty.
    The option "select new" is grayed out, and it is not possible to start the indexing service - probably because there is no index. Following the steps of troubling shooting is no help either (because he fails to step to start the indexing service).
    Any ideas? I hope that someone will know what registry entry, I can set up or change. I watch but couldn't find anything that seemed relevant and did not want to change whatever it is based on the work of the conjecture.

  • the console application window brings forward on printf

    Hello, this is the first time with LabWindows CVI (version 9) and I noticed on all the 'printf' console is presented in the foreground. It is therefore impossible to use the computer during my tests that print report in the console. Minimizing the console does not help, it is leading. Piping the output to a file, while no output on the console, always brings the console window to the foreground on each printf.

    Any way to disable this feature, so it behaves like normal console programs?

    Thank you

    Jason.

    You can use the SetStdioWindowOptions() function, passing 0 as the second parameter to correct this problem. (this default setting was also irritates me for some time).

    Hello

    I recently bought an old computer from a friend and the first months I just signed in as his name.  I saved some video files and photos for windows 8 connected under his name.  After a few months, I got tired of seeing his name at startup then I set up my own account.  When I did the whole upward, it says no files would be lost.

    Now, Miss me all the files I had saved.  The only name that exists now on this computer, it is my own... my friends name disappeared.

    I lost these files forever?  Is it possible to recover?

    Thank you very much

  • print to printer noprint (1 copy) - how to set the number of copies by default

    Hello.

    I need specific concurrent programs to be automatically printed, so the number of copies that specific programmes should be on 1 as a default value.

    Which is adjustable at the level of the simultaneous program (only for the particular simultaneous program)? I can select separate printer for the specific program, but not the number of copies.

    The only way I've found is to "create concurrent Copies: report" property to 1 in the site-level profiles system.
    But that means will have also all noprint printers number of copies set to 1.

    Can there be problems NOPRINT: unknown printer error ?
    Is there another way?

    Thank you
    Kind regards
