Triggers a "Panel Resize" event programmatically

I have a contextual dialog GUI VI with a structure of the event.

I'm programatically positioning of elements on the graphical interface based on the size of the window.  I do this placement within a "Panel Resize" event if the 'law' of the event was "Maximize" or "Resized."

I want to programmatically triggers this event to run one time when the VI launch first, to make sure that all of my items are positioned correctly (in which case anything changed during development), however, the only way I found to do this is to manually resize the window.

Of course, one possible solution is to put the code positioning in a subvi, but for various reasons, I prefer not to do that in this case, although I'll probably have to do...

(I tried to change the size of the screen by-1 but appears not to genereate an event).

So, is it possible to create a similar to a property "value (signposting)"Panel Resize"event?

Thank you!

As you can only resize and reposition objects FP using nodes of property, I don't see advantage by keeping the functionality of a Subvi. I did this during years with a generic UI which positions most oc objects compared to limits of the FP, which is defined relative to the size of the workspace on the main desktop. You even don't need to spend in the references that you can create using the chain of appeal VI or another and get an array of references to the Panel control. As long as you set the position of each control to its name, it works quite well.

-My user interface adds a great width text box and car spaces based on a report in a 2D auto scaling multicolumn listbox colunms (add and remove lines in function number of available pixels to play with) that I never know what resolution someone will use for their monitor, all I have to do is specify a minimum size and a maximum size that I tested!

Think about it - you will see it is logical (also you can repel the FPUpdates until all orders are respostioned where they are expected which speeds up the process).

  • Relaxation/simulate Click event programmatically via ClientListerner

    I managed to get a reference to an element of the ADF by following the documentation. What I am now struggling with is to trigger the click event programmatically on this component.

    The source code is as follows:

    ADF

    < af:panelAccordion discloseMany = 'false' id = 'pa1' >

         <af:showDetailItem id="pane1" text="Panel Label 1" disclosed="true">
           
    <af:commandButton text="commandButton 1" id="cb1">
                  
    <af:clientListener method="showNext" type="action" />
           
    </af:commandButton>
         </af:showDetailItem>

         <af:showDetailItem id="pane2" text="Panel Label 2">
           
    <af:commandButton text="commandButton 2" id="cb2">
                
    <af:clientListener method="showNext" type="action" />
           
    </af:commandButton>
         </af:showDetailItem>

         <af:showDetailItem id="pane3" text="Panel Label 3">
           
    <af:commandButton text="commandButton 3" id="cb3">
                
    <af:clientListener method="showNext" type="action" />
           
    </af:commandButton>
         </af:showDetailItem>

    < / af:panelAccordion >

    JavaScript

    function showNext(evt){  
      
    var src = evt.getSource();

       var showDetailItemNode = src.getParent(); // targets the showDetailItem node in which the button resides  

       /* how do I simulate the click event of this object? */

       /* For example: If button #cb1 was clicked, it should simulate clicking of the showDetailItem #pane1 */
    }


    Use cases

    When a user clicks on a button (which is inside the showDetailitem), the parent panel collapses and the next panel must open upwards. The button is just another way to trigger the Panel click behavior.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. The only reason why I use javascript is because I have virtually no knowledge in JAVA/Beans. I am more a guy script and therefore wanted to achieve the same using client-side scripts instead of having to go to the side server.

    in any case, I managed to solve it, but I had to take a different route. What I did was the target node parent of the button, and then set its property disclosed to false.

  • Cs4 vertical Configurator Panel resize limit

    Hello

    Maybe this has been mentioned before, but when I try to make a custom for photoshop Cs4, Panel

    the Group seems to have a vertical limit when resizing which is much more than what I initially created.

    For example, this one was created in 71 x 94 and cannot be resized vertically more that the screenshot.

    Anchored or not is the same

    resize.png

    I also tried other sizes for the original Panel.

    Someone has an idea?

    Thank you

    Hello

    There is a "resize" bug in the Configurator 1.0.

    When you export a Panel and open it the first time, Panel to resize the width and height you assigned as cromaline say, after first Panel only is not resized, given that photoshop will remember last size of your Panel.

    But if you resize it in a larger size exceeds the size by default photoshop (220 * 220), when next time launch photoshop

    Photoshop will remember this size, then you can't resize it smaller.

    There is a solution

    on Windows, system go to folder C: \Documents and Settings\

    Look in the "PanelSizeStore.sol" file and delete it.

    Then restart photoshop, you can see the Panel resize to your original size.

    Kind regards

  • How to generate a right click event programmatically

    I use a table with a dynamic context menu. I would like to show a right-click context menu with a left-click instead. Is it possible to generate an activation of the context menu event?

  • Resize controls programmatically during execution

    I have a series of controls on a GUI and a GUI I want to be able to resize according to the machine that is running the program.

    Basically, my logic is this. A GUI can fill the available display space, but not all, and must never be directed at a screen that is not designed for.

    Currently my laptop is having display problems and keep chaning the resolution thus masking the parts of my GUI.

    I want to resize (and place all controls visible and indicators - I know that those to whom they are) so that my GUI appears in a space about some default screen resolutions. (800 x 600, 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 1024)

    I can get the position and the limits of control, but I can't change the boundaries of a control (generic) with the property node. It's frustrating. one of my being a listbox controls large multicolumn who takes the largest part of the screen and really need resize according to the resolution of the screen.

    Any ideas?

    James

    Your immediate problem is change the size of a control is available only through specific property (and not generic) nodes.  Use the function "to the more specific" in the palette controls App to convert the reference type.  If the generic reference does not mention this reference type, it will return an error.

    Here's the code that changes all MCLs on public Service 100x200px

    Since you say that you know who controls that you want to change, you can do created references, too.

  • reference, triggering case value change event

    Hello

    I have 2 VI, it has a switch on it and one for the event that watches for a change in value on the toggle switch and if it detects one it turns on a light.

    The second VI reference the first VI and reference of the toggle switch.  This second VI I wish I could switch on or off and have the case of the event in the other VI do its thing.

    This is not the case.  The same case is not catching the failover when I do for one another VI referencing the switch

    is there a workaround to do, a way to make the case event notice that the reference value changes without having to not to use the case of the event?

    Thank you very much!

    You use the Value property (Signaling) to trigger an event of value has changed.

  • Hovering over the triggers Drop Down Menu event "mouse Leave"

    Hi, if anyone can help with this problem, I would be very grateful.

    I have a tab control changing to another page when the user enters or mouse leaves the tab control. The purpose of this is so that the tab control becomes invisible when colored 'transparent', according to the movement of the user's mouse. This allows the full screen to use to display the video when the menus are not necessary, and menus can be displayed when the user enters into the surface of the tab. There is also a button to lock the menu in place.

    It worked fine until I added a few rings of text to a menu tab. When the user clicks on the drop-down arrow and hovers over the elements, the case of the event as if the mouse has left the tab control, tab resets back to page 1 (white page). I don't want to do it, but I still want to use the drop down menus because they are more concise and more convenient than the alternatives (listboxes, etc.). This does not happen with the buttons and other controls, only with the drop-down menus, AFAIK.

    Can anyone suggest a work around? I chose this method of relaxation because it is less demanding in processor using the mouse move event coordinates to trigger the tabs appear. I need to save so much time processor for video capture possible. I enclose my vi (Labview 2010 32-bit) with the gray tabs so you can see and test the value for yourself.

    I would add one for the event to "Operate the Menu Activation" for the controls of the ring.  This simply fuels a real constant in a shift register in time loop.  In the mouse enter and leave events add a case structure and change the pages only when the value Boolean false.  Ensure that supply the true value in the registry to offset in the mouse leave case also (other cases may use the Default of False if you don't have to string wires in all cases).

    Quick MOD after extraction of the stuff IMAQ, remove also the delay in case of loop Structure, provides it ARE necessary delays.

  • Synchronization of AO and output counter, arming and triggering the sequence of events

    Hi all

    I'm trying to synchronize a counter (used as a digital pulse) and analogue of a custom waveform output read from the file on a USB-6211. The goal is to always have these running until I hit 'STOP' and to be able to change the position of the pulse relative to each other. I created a VI by combining and modifying the Cont.Gen.Wfm.Int - Clk.Non - Regen.VI and the Continous.VI Gen dig Pulse Train and I'm now able to produce the two signals to the desired frequency, but I can't seem to get the "Initial period" to work correctly. The values that I come home do not seem to match what is happening LeRiz, and the spacing seems to vary from run to run (within each series is constant). In a previous post, Alfred has suggested:

    "Trigger counter outputs out of the trigger to start AO and adjusting the setting 'Initial period' should give you what you are looking for."  Don't forget to start the tasks of meter in the software before the tasks of the AO (if they are armed and ready to go before the start AO is sent). »

    (link here)

    I tried to use the controls and the propertynodes (perhaps incorrectly), but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

    I think what happens is that my arms and firing sequence is not done correctly. I read on as much information as I could about the outbreak and armament, but I don't know that I understand correctly. Most of the examples I found using an external trigger or perform analog input tasks finished. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to start my two tasks in the proper order? Is something else is wrong here?

    Thank you

    Gabe

    P.S. I have attached the VI and a sample waveform read.

    Hi Gabe,

    This is a cleaned of the VI version that should work (you need not adjust the initial deadline on the right fly?).  Instead of reading a file, I made just a simple square wave of 50% to be used for the test.

  • How to keep the button in the center of the resizable dialog / Panel?

    Hi all

    Y at - it means to make a button always at the center of the dialog/Panel when I resize dialog/panel without changing the size of the image?

    I use kBindAll but will change the button frame size. Is someone can you please help me solve which?

    Screen Shot 2014-07-04 at 2.09.20 PM.png

    My attribute of the button:

    ButtonWidget

    (

    kAMPBrowseBtWidgetID,

    kSysButtonPMRsrcId, / / The Plugin ID

    kBindAll, / / binding framework

    kTrue, / / is this visible

    kTrue, / / is - this permit

    'Browse Pages', / / the string value

    ),

    Hello

    I couldn't make it work by using binding.

    There may be a better way to do it, but I got it by assigning them to kBindNone and moving the button panel resize events:

    First of all, make sure that you have a custom class for display in your control panel.

    Annotate in the file en for boss of the Group widget class with:

    IID_ICONTROLVIEW, kMyPanelViewImpl,

    Add the definitions of ID, list of factory etc. and put in place a class MyPanelView (or whatever you want to call it...), derived from PanelView, for this implementation

    Then your class of MyPanelView, put in place since the function of resizing as below:

    void MyPanelView::Resize (const PMPoint & dimensions, invalid bool16)

    {

    PanelView::Resize (dimensions, invalid);

    InterfacePtr panelData (Utils()-> QueryPanelByWidgetID (kMyPanelWidgetID));

    if(panelData == Nil) return;

    IControlView * myWidget = panelData-> FindWidget (kMyButtonWidgetID);

    If (myWidget == nil) return;

    PMRect lecadrage is myWidget-> GetFrame();.

    PMReal = left (dimensions. X() - theFrame.Width (()) / 2;

    PMReal = left + theFrame.Width ();

    theFrame.Left (left);

    theFrame.Right (right);

    myWidget-> SetFrame (lecadrage, kTrue);

    }

    You will have need of these includes:

    #include 'Utils.h.

    #include "IPalettePanelUtils.h".

    Hope that helps

  • disable by program "resize objects.

    I have a program that fits very well with some screen resolutions, I the "scale all the objects on the façade" selected. Is there a way to disable this option programmatically? I would like the user to be able to make the window smaller if you wish, but force the window to achieve if it is small enough.

    Desire:

    (1) to start the program: expanded PS, objects of scale to allow different resolutions

    (2) the user resizes the window, turn off "resize objects with the size of the window. Keep the current sizes and spacing, forcing the user to scroll.

    Thank you!

    I think you can accomplish your desired behavior with a combination of the Panel Resize event and the method of the scale:

  • Change Panel vi limits that other vi is resized

    I VI B inside a secondary (automatic resizing with component) on VI A. I try programmatically resize VI B in VI A resizing so I can see all B VI in the secondary. It works fine except VI B is resized WHILE I'm resizing VI A. This is expected behavior, but it creates a lot of flicker. I want only resize VI B after that VI A resized. Similar to the 'Scale when resizing objects' property of a component. Is there a solution for this? I was hoping there would be a resize for the secondary event, but there isn't.

    You can register for the Resize event of VI A Panel, if the limits of the old and the new Panel are equal, is that resizing is finished.

  • Delay in resizing of front panel

    Hello

    I develop GUI which needs to look nice and the user will have the option to resize. Since the ladder under the window property fails, I wanted to use the resize Panel event.

    But there is delay - controll is resized some time after I resize the front panel and that seems bad. When I look at the list of window or error of project it will resize instantly.

    Why I can't get this result in Labview?

    I could always sign size leash read say every 10ms and calculate the size of ontrolls on this basis, but is there best option by using this resize event Panel?

    It should be more or less obvious that this parameter means when used.  If you set a control to fit the pane and then resize this component, it does not wait for the mouse to start resizing it it will resize for each pixel the mouse movement.
