Time saving of screenshot

Hi, I'm looking for opinions and comments on a new approach of screenshots. My thesis is that instead of simply typing a screen and its use in a help file, do us a job to simplify the picture. The goal is to make it easier to scale and less subject to change (if the software is being updated). This also has the advantage to one side to avoid some localization/language issues you can hit with screenshots for several languages.

The topics listed below line this approach and provide some feedback from people actually helps in the field.

My question is: is this nre you, do you think it's a useful thing to add to your arsenal of creation?

Hi all

I warmly approve! SnagIt! SnagIt!

Sorry Peter, I feel SnagIt is miles ahead of RoboScreenCapture. I swore that he years.

But then again, that's just my opinion. Before I became addicted to SnagIt, I swore to good old PrintScreen and Windows Paint!

Happy Wednesday all the... Rick

  • two dumb questions - file header and time saving

    1. How can I add a header in writing worksheet file.vi? (For now, it only stores a number of columes of data with each colume representing a single channel. "I want to put a header at the top that shows the names of the channels).
    2. can I store the date and time at which each data point is connected, as well as the data itself in a single file?

    You can open the "write to the spreadsheet File.vi", change it with a header entry that works to your liking and save it under a different name (do not overwrite the original).  Adding another table in spreadsheet String VI, a string concatination and an array of strings of entry for your headers is all that is necessary.

    As for saving the actual time for each data point, you will need to follow that with your data and add it along with the rest of your 2d data.  Write it to the File.vi spreadsheet doesn't have this built-in feature.

    Alternatively, I recommend you do the following:

    1 be sure to use the output waveform on any type of data read operation if it is available.  Familiarize yourself with this type of data complex that NEITHER is came up with, as it will really save you a lot of headaches and extra coding.  If the VI that makes your reading data does not support the type of waveform data, then you can always convert a waveform data.

    2. try to use Scripture measurement file Express VI.  You'll probably have more luck with that then write it in table vi.

    Thanks in advance.

    There are many ways to achieve this. We can be to use the background image for the application. Other means may be to use various containers (Panel, canvas etc with background pictures) to get this look. Think of it in HTML view. How you can use the div tags to your page layout, you can use various containers of Flex to your page layout.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forum. I understand that you have requests within the time limits, that your son can use his computer, where he does not use it for a day with parental control activated.

    The time that you provided in a day to a child account will not accumulate. Period of family safety affects the account of the child's day.

  • Big feature of blackBerry Smartphones A forgotten storm blackberry - time-saving tips using touch tone

    I searched for the blackberry storm 9530 touch long tone function without being the solution. In order to save money on long distance, I use the phone card to dial in long distance. But I can not send the phone number in my contacts as tones. The only way is to enter the phone number to hand.

    This is a very useful feature that has all the basic cell phone. Does anyone know how I can send the phone number (which is already in my contacts) as "tones"?

    TELUS Blackberry storm 9530 has said that speaking time for 1 full charge of the battery will be about 6 hours, but it is NOT MORE THAN 2 hours.

    It depends on what runs on your device when calling: still does occur after a battery pull?

    for example, live GPS is a battery eater. Use of Bluetooth while talking also battery consumes. And of course, the 6 h of communication along assumes you have a perfect network coverage. In order to have 2 hours, it's a little weak, but not surprising for a smartphone.

  • data is plotted on the graph of absolute time delay

    Hi all

    I'm plot data on a graph of absolute time and I find 2 hours difference between the data displayed by the debugger (left) and data on the graph (X - SCALE AUTO).

    The time saved in ptTime, was acquired by using the function 'time' and the PC has Amsterdam, Berlin, Rome as time zone.

    Here, under a screen shot that implemented the code, the debugger and the result.

    The debugger is also showing the version in good time!

    Can anyone suggest me how to process data in order to have the same result on the debugger window and on the graph?

    A big thank you and best regards

    Sergio

    Question: in the CVI debugger show you, the time_t variable appears as a double, while its definition in 'time.h' is ' typedef unsigned int time_t; "so I am a little confused.

    Response: I did something nonsense in this screenshot: I took a variable of type double (it happened to be a UIDateTime, actually) and configured the debugger to format as if it were a time_t variable. The formatted values that the debugger shows me, therefore, are not valid, of course. But I just wanted to show the time_t format, because it corresponds to what you have in your screenshot, and I was already suspicious that you use time_t variable to pass to the curve.

    Furthermore, if you are not familiar with the way in which you can change the formatting in the debugger, this is how you do it:

    Usually, the debugger can automatically pick the best format to use, based on the data type of the variable (for example, with variables of time_t). But in this case, what the debugger calls a variable "Date Time" is all just a double. The debugger cannot assume that you want to display all your double variables as a 'Date Time', and so you need to replace yourself.

    Question: I was not able to find UIDateTime using the ICB type, this is the value returned by GetCurrentDateTime(double *)?

    Response: There is really no such thing as a type of data "UIDateTime". I've been a bit remiss with my terminology. Unfortunately, when you're dealing with dates and hours, there are several possible representations of these quantities in the world of C, and it is important that you use the correct the intended variant you use for. In this case, the chart controls expect that you pass the time format used by the library of user interface, that is, one that is returned by the GetCurrentDateTime or MakeDateTime functions. The underlying C for this representation of the time data type is simply twice, and so it is not a good name to refer to it. That is why I used UIDateTime, but I should have been clearer than that.

    Question: Y at - it a function to convert time_t values UIDateTime values

    Response: Yes. You can use the functions of the programmer's Toolbox following two, in exactly this order:

    CVIAbsoluteTimeFromCVIANSITime (time_t ansiTime, CVIAbsoluteTime * absTime);

    CVIAbsoluteTimeToCVIUILTime (CVIAbsoluteTime absTime, double * uilTime);

  • Export of legend to the screenshot

    Hello

    I am trying to create a screenshot to my graphic option. Including the legend. It seems pretty good so far:

    Public Sub ScreenShot()
    {
    Limits of Rect = LayoutInformation.GetLayoutSlot (SensorPanelGraph);
    var bitmap = new RenderTargetBitmap ((int) limits.) Width, (int) limits. Height, 96, 96, PixelFormats.Pbgra32);

    Rect bounds2 = LayoutInformation.GetLayoutSlot (mainWindow.SPSMI8Legend);

    DrawingVisual dv = new DrawingVisual();

    using (DrawingContext dc = dv. RenderOpen())
    {

    VisualBrush vb = new VisualBrush (SensorPanelGraph);

    VisualBrush vb2 = new VisualBrush (mainWindow.SPSMI8Legend);

    Origo point = new focus();
    Point LegendOrigo = new focus();
    Point LegendSecondPoint = new focus();

    LegendOrigo.X = origo. X + limits. Width - bounds2. Width - 5;
    LegendOrigo.Y = origo. Y + 10;

    LegendSecondPoint.X = LegendOrigo.X + bounds2. Width;
    LegendSecondPoint.Y = LegendOrigo.Y + bounds2. Height;

    DC. DrawRectangle (vb, null, new Rect (origo, bounds. Size));

    vB2. Transform = new ScaleTransform (0.75, 0.75, LegendOrigo.X + bounds2.) Width / 2, LegendOrigo.Y + bounds2. Height/2);
    DC. DrawRectangle (vb2, null, new Rect (LegendOrigo, LegendSecondPoint));

    }

    bitmap image. Render (DV);

    path access String = Environment.GetFolderPath (Environment.SpecialFolder.MyPictures) + @ "\Graph.png";
    using (FileStream outStream = new FileStream (path, FileMode.Create))
    {

    PngBitmapEncoder enc = new PngBitmapEncoder();

    ENC. Frames.Add (BitmapFrame.Create (bitmap));

    ENC. Save (outStream);

    }
    }

    I know that the code is not beautiful, I'm still only experimentig autour however. My main problem is the following.

    The legend has not much room on the GUI, so it sets itself automatically scroll horizontally and vertically on the window if I fill it too. Unfortunately, the VisualBrush object takes a copy pixel by pixel of the UI object, and the exported image, I see only part of the legend that was visible at the time of the screenshot and scrollbars on each side.

    Question: Is it possible to copy all of the legend, as if it had grown to its full size?

    All WPF drawing mechanisms use the size of the layout of the control. To view the complete legend, you will either need to expand the legend in the user interface, or you do not have to use the technique of the question rendering bitmap WPF create item off-screen (of Alex + ra) to do off the screen.

    To develop the legend, it is possible to measure and organize using the desired size of the legend (although this will change on the screen):

    Rect desiredBounds = new Rect( new Point( ), legend.DesiredSize );

        legend.InvalidateMeasure( );

        legend.Measure( desiredBounds.Size );

        legend.Arrange( desiredBounds );

        legend.UpdateLayout( );

    To update off the screen, you'll either need to remove the legend of its parent and measure then as above, or create a new legend with the same settings make.

    Another alternative would be to declare two legends in your UI, one of them now in a hidden canvas (allowing him to full size without the screen on). This would avoid the need to measure and arrange calls to update the page layout (although Visual legend would be silently updated even when you do not use the screenshot feature) manually.

  • How to find the time between two channels of entry in the data acquisition card or pci 6036

    Hello

    I read a lot-related posts on the simultaneous measurement of two input voltage of similar channels in map data acquisition. I know that the best material is "simultaneous measurments of the Series DAQ cards" but I only pci data acquisition card 6036 and I try to understand what is the time between the reading of the two channels . This period is always constant? (must it rely on a voltage (amplitude, frequency, waveform..). I send the sine wave (s) to the two channels and read the values of V, if they read the same value, the difference should always be zero but I get-0,002 to 0.002 Volt difference (I must find a way to convert it in time). A screenshot of my VI is attached. I wonder how I can accurately measure the time delay between the channel.

    I am open to any suggestion, my final goal to read exactly two channels at the same time ((ou connaître le délai exact donc je peux correspondre les données correspondantes étant donné le temps de retard))

  • Talk to the two devices at the same time.

    Hello

    I wonder that you could help me with my solution.

    I use GPIB to talk to two devices. I need to reset and align a device and control unit B. The process can take up to 2 minutes. Process B is to refresh of the ESA to the required temperature and it can take up to 3 minutes to reach the required temperature. To monitor these processes I use the pull method and:

    • for the process to use the STATp.: COND? query (is this 1?)
    • V use TEMP for the process? query (get the temperature, is the answer within the limits of output?)

    Now, these processes one by one. But, because the two processes must be done every time before HAD tested (as part of an implementation of the test procedure), I would like to take some time to test. Technically, the two processes are independent, I can trigger them almost at the same time and wait when the plu completes itself, and pass them to the part of the tests.

    However, the first attempt to go has failed. When I published the STATp.: COND? query to the breast of the connection to the device has what looks like all GPIB bus is blocked and I cannot issue the TEMP? mark on the device B, as the bus seems to be waiting for the STATp.: COND? command sent to the device has to finish.

    Strange thing is that then I throw the STATp.: COND? order for the first time, the device is not able to accept all other orders.

    Why?

    What is the right approach to this test time saving?

    Asking a statusbyte shouldn't block the system, because it must be managed in the external chip GPIB devices.

    So use the "VISA read STB" instead of * STB via via writing.

    This function is located in the VISA palette
