If you want to hang out with the LAVA crowd then the Radisson is the place to be.

LabVIEW 8.2.1 When working with any XControl. If you right-click on the xcontrol instance and select show>caption, you will see an ugly black caption with no way of making transparent. Also, if you move it around you see ugly black shadows. Hs been reported to NI, waiting back.

If you could ask anyone at National Instruments any question. Who would you ask and what would the question be? (Except this question: What is the password for the locked diagram of VI xyz.)

The simple answer is NO. LabVIEW does not have a native built-in feature to do this. However, with a little duct tape and some chewing gum you can do anything. Here's how: (LabVIEW 8.2.x) http://forums.lavag.org/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=5950

alfa, you need help. I mean seriously. Stay away from weapons of any kind and go get some good psychotherapy.

The simple answer is NO. You cannot dynamically create splitter bars if none exist. You can, however, operate on them programmatically after they've been created. Right-click on a splitter and select Create>Property.

I uninstalled 8.0.1 (took 45min.!). Anyway, after a clean reboot: 821 startup: 2m30s. Closed 821 then re opened it: 821 startup: 30s. Worked on a project for an hour, then closed 821. Then reopened it: 821 startup: 1m

Well, I just finished upgrading an "old" 8.0.1 project to 8.2.1 so I don't have a need for 8.0.1 anymore. I'll uninstall this and see if it makes a difference.

If you right-click on a file folder within a LabVIEW Project, you can select to "arrange by" type, name or path. This is all good an fun, however: When you add new files to the folder the folder doesn't re-sort the list. You have to re-sort the contents manually every time. There is no global setting for this. For example, newly created folders are not sorted in any controllable way. This is bad.

Does anyone know of a way to add a folder of files to a LabVIEW project using filtering? For example, I currently have a use case where my folders contain svn subfolders which you don't really want shown in a project tree.

QUOTE(gmart @ May 23 2007, 01:17 PM) I did not clock the 8.2 startup time when I had it before the upgrade. Sorry. I'm not about to downgrade. It felt like 30s.As far as everyone else. That's great, I'm happy for you (I really am) but how do I debug this? Any suggestions?

My stats: LabVIEW 7.1.1: 30s LabVIEW 8.0.1: 2m45s LabVIEW 8.2.1: 1m30s So, unless you can launch in 30s you're too slow for me, sorry. I'm talking LabVIEW startup time without loading any VI's.

QUOTE(LV Punk @ May 23 2007, 09:19 AM) Ok, now I see it too. Thanks. I'll move this to the bug forum.

I just finished performing some speed optimization changes on the forums and other areas of the site. Please let me know if everything feels a little faster.

QUOTE(Jacemdom @ May 22 2007, 05:50 PM) Sorry, the conversation started off with 8.2 and you switched it to 8.0.1 so I missed that. In 8.2 however NI decided to make both extractable.

So as you can see, even the

QUOTE(Jacemdom @ May 22 2007, 03:35 PM) I could spend the time and figure it out, but you can also do this yourself. Just download both run-times. Extract them and look at the folder contents. You will see several clearly labeled msi install files for the full runtime which are related to various add-on features.

I just want to revive this thread and say a big Booo! to NI for slowing LabVIEW down agian. After applying the new 8.2.1 patch my launch time sucks. Back to 8.0 startup speed.

QUOTE(crelf @ May 21 2007, 06:50 AM) Sometimes I have to remind myself that there is a real person writing these posts...

Can you attach a new VI with your graph on the panel and a constant with data fed to it? I want to try a few things.

QUOTE(tcplomp @ May 21 2007, 06:46 AM) That works too.

QUOTE(chrisdavis @ May 21 2007, 06:14 PM) I agree. Since the LabVIEW 8.0 release, NI decide to add a little confusion by creating two run-time engines. The old run-time is now called the "web browser only" runtime: QUOTE There are two downloads that are available. You only need to install one of them. LabVIEW 8.2.1 Run-Time Engine (Web Browser Only) (24MB) is a smaller download intended for viewing Remote Front Panels in web pages. It does not contain the full run-time engine, but will allow some executables to run. This version can not be deployed. Download LVRunTimeEng.exe to install this version. LabVIEW 8.2.1 Run-Time Engine (Standard) (91MB) gives full support for executables. This version will support all executables built with LabVIEW as well as allow viewing of Remote Front Panels in web browsers. It includes support for DataSocket, Variable Engine and NI-USI. This version can be deployed using an installer created with Application Builder. Download LabVIEW_8.2.1_Runtime_Engine.exe to install this version. So really, you may be able to get by with the web browser only version which is "only" 24MB.

QUOTE(chrisdavis @ May 16 2007, 06:44 PM) Question for you. How are the additional msi files included? Are they a post or pre install task? Also, upon an upgrade, what happens when the additional msi gets called again? Do you get the repair, or uninstall dialog for the msi?
