I've been having problems with creating the executable application. I get to the Project Explorer, then right click on Build specifications and all I get is "New >> Source Distribution" rather than the "Application" tab that I need. Am I not saving the instrument correctly to get the correct menu? (I tried to upload a screen shot, but it won't let me )

Hi, I have a few images that has zoom capabilities and have been requested to link the zoom feature so that all the images zoom together rather than individually zooming each image. I've linked cursors and scales on all of these images, but have no idea how to link the zoom feature. Every time I try to follow the zoom from the front panel to the block diagram, it always brings me back to the intensity graph, which doesn't help at all. To link the cursors, I used property nodes within an event structure and to link the scales I used a few property nodes within a case structure. Does anyone know what element of the property nodes to choose in order to link the zoom? There are a few categories that seem to be promising, but haven't worked: plot are and plot area bounds. Neither of those did what we wanted. Thanks for the help! -AZoptics

I found MAX and found the camera in there. I can't see an image in there, however I do get images on my working program. The camera name comes up as img0 on my working problem as well as in MAX, and the camera name in the non-working program is cam0, but when I tried to change the camera name, it responded with a "bad camera file". I think I've confused myself into just playing with things and hoping they work. And I still am learning labview, so that really adds to my confusion. Anyway, the program that I am trying to amend is a stokes vector program: the goal is to be able to have a stokes vector represented by the images taken by the camera. We have a working Muler Matrix calculating program, which I am trying to amend to use the stokes math in. The stokes program has everything that I need, but the camera does not want to be recognized. Sorry if I keep asking stupid questions, I just really know very little about labview and am trying to learn!! Thanks for your help so far!!

QUOTE (crelf @ Dec 22 2008, 11:22 AM) I don't know. The camera works just fine with another program on the same computer and both programs call the camera the exact same way and the camera is named the same, only difference is that one has just IMAQ sub vi's and the other has IMAQ1394 sub vi's. (I'm still trying to figure out exactly what is going on, this is my first big experience with labview other than "build a thermometer" on the tutorial) Also, when I run the program, it can't find the correct file, but the vi that I look in has no where to change the file path. (I'll try to get some screen shots up)

I've only ben exposed to LabView for about a year now, and it's still rather new to me. I've been put in charge of re-writing a program in LabView 7.0 and I keep running into some problems with some IMAQ1394 sub vi's. The error always reads out "Invalid Session ID". Also, I traced the error back further and it says that there is an invalid file name for the camera that I'm trying to use. I've tried researching this problem, and haven't come up with many answers. The camera ID is the same in this program as in another working program on the computer. I really could use some help trying to figure out what's going on. Thanks.
