Sounds like a LAVA Coding Challenge.

PS: Thanks for props. to LAVA BBQ.

Hey Mikael. That was another function I used but it wasn't working for me. I was setting the hWndInsertAfter parameter to 0 (Places the window at the top of the Z order). However by setting it to -1 and then back to -2. I managed to get the result I needed. :-) Thanks!

I need to programmatically force my LabVIEW application to become frontmost on a Windows system. Basically I want it to punch through any currently open application windows and become the main active app. What I've tried: I ran the SetForegroundWindow Windows API function. This causes the titlebar to flash and draw attention for a short while but does not make it frontmost. I ran the BringWindowToTop Windows API function. This does not make it frontmost. I made my application window floating. This does appear to work. However this causes other problems since the window which I need to be frontmost is also a dialog box. So I don't want the user to click behind the dialog box onto my main application window. I tried using the floating window property (as mentioned above), then quickly made it modal again. This has the affect of flashing the window to the user and then disappearing behind any other app windows. Not good and also confusing. So, is there any way to do this?

Check Prefs:

I use Chrome exclusively. But I sympathize with the small people.

Pfftttt. I wouldn't be caught dead over there.

And we care about this because...?

Opera. What's that?

It's actually a very nice feature. Especially if you want to preview a post in the unread content list and you don't want the read status to be changed. How about if it was a static image always visible instead of popping on and off?

I don't know how to change this. I've sent a support ticket to Invision referencing your post. Thanks for the screenshot.

Hubs are bad since they allow for more network collisions hence lower throughput. Even if you find a hub, you may pay the price in performance and this may cause other problems. http://en.wikipedia....iki/Network_hub

Having said that. Feel free to report posts that are attributed to you. At least we will have a list to work off of when we get to doing this.

What browser did you use to download the file and from where? LAVA? I just tried downloading it in Chrome and the file saves as: distek_integration_inc_lib_rcf_align_terminal_labels-1.0.0-1.vip

It's in the works but not completed yet.

That's good to hear guys. Search is the biggest sore spot here and it's nice to see some improvement. However, there is still a 3 character limit on the search terms which I'm working hard to resolve. It appears this is a Mysql issue and not related to IP.Board but still is annoying and I'm trying to resolve it if possible.

I added it back.

I'm posting this reply from the Iphone App. Hey it works!

A new feature on LAVA is Twitter and Facebook Integration. Watch a short video on how to enable this. This video has audio, so turn up the volume.

Another neat feature is there is now an iPhone App that has been released to read and participate on the forums. However it only works with the newest forum version which we will be installing on Saturday.

Well, the array contains a typedef cluster and the change is adding a new element to that cluster. Moving forward. What is the best practice in this case to support proper up-conversion? Should I disconnect all typedefs? Will that be enough, or should I convert them to objects? And if I switch to all objects, will the old clusters up-convert to objects properly?

I'm not understanding this suggestion. Are you saying I should try resaving the data in 1.0.0.1? I already did that and it didn't help. Even if this suggestion works, it doesn't help me at the moment. V1.0.0.1 of the class is already built into an executable and released to my customer. They've saved hundreds of records with that class data. The data exists and now I need to read it with my new executable that uses class v1.0.0.2. I found the following folder: vi.lib\utility\LVClass but nothing useful is in there.

We'll be going through a major site upgrade this weekend. It will start Saturday night and should only last a few hours. It's a very exciting upgrade and will give the site some cool features. You can read about them here. One of the key improvements is search. We'll have to see how that works in practice but anything is better than what we have now I guess.

I have some class data that was flattened and saved in class version 1.0.0.1. I can open the data fine with my class of version 1.0.0.1. It's a complicated cluster structure with many sub-clusters. One of the sub-clusters contains an array of cluster data. When I try to read the data and unflatten it with my class of version 1.0.0.2, I get all the data back correctly with the exception of that one sub-cluster. the array comes back as empty. The unflatten function doesn't return any errors. At this point i'm basically screwed. Any suggestions? I love the idea of automatic up-conversion but right now I'm burned badly.
