Well, thank you for all your contributions. You were passionate about LabVIEW and about LAVA. I appreaciate your time an effort in the the community. It's seems like almost yesterday that your daughter was "born" on LAVA and look at her now!

Thanks Again, and have fun .

When selecting "French" (yes I am a frog and yes I have green blood) some texts seems not to have any translation...

Yes, I did German last weekend. I'm doing French this weekend. Hang in there...

Thanks for noticing. I was just cleaning up some loose ends around the site and I didn't think it warranted an announcement but, ya!

I love that we can spin a whole discussion out of "set to default".

QUOTE

there's nothing wrong with defaults either - as long as you know what they are

Well, again, that's my point. Do I have to check every front panel Item to prove to myself that it has the right value?

QUOTE

I wasn't referring to end users. I was referring to other programmers. They are more dangerous. End users should always be forgiven when it comes to software. It's programmers that know better, but decide deliberately to behave badly.

QUOTE

I'm 50/50 on that one. One thing I like about it is that no-one can override what the default is by right-clicking on it or anything. The default is defined by LabVIEW and stays that way... until NI decides to "fix it".

I think using ReInit to Default is completely the correct solution for a user interface component. ... As a UI component, it's very useful for a "reset to inital state", such as a Clear button for some output, or a Reset To Defaults button on an Options dialog.

Ok, re-init to default. Putting the performance issues aside (which are also important), can you tell me what the "default" is? That's a pretty blind approach considering that anyone can right-click on the front panel and define their own "default". While writing apps for years, I've learned to always be explicit when setting values to avoid ambiguity and hair pulling.

Right click on your array control's FP terminal and select Create>>Invoke Node>>Reinitialize to Default. This will drop a node that, when executed, will reset your control to its default value.

Ya, I wasn't really sure what he was asking for from his question but in hindsite I would have suggested:

In general, using the reinitialize to default node is considered bad form.

Hey, let's be nice. Innocent until proven guilty. I still believe in that.

Just let me know about anyone abusing the PM system. I have ways of dealing with it.

I "heard to say" that there are different ways to open a connection to a DataBase, there must be a way that does not load the whole DB to memory ; this is what I am looking for ...

Huh? The whole database is not loaded into memory.

Here?

I'll just use Babel Fish...

This is great! I already have a working solution and I am only using 8.0 but when I'm ready, I'll use it. Thanks.

I hope NI doesn't remove this feature just because we discovered it. . That would be mean.

The user has been banned from the forums for 3 days.

I've finally gotten around to updating the German language settings on LAVA. This means all the pages should show properly now without errors. :thumbup: . There are however some minor areas that are still in English. I've attached the PHP files that need translating. If any German speaking member wants to help out please reply to this post with your translated versions of the files. Basically, the format is for example:

'keyword'	 => 'Translated Text',

example:

'mess_inbox'				   => "zum Posteingang",'mess_archive'				 => "Nachrichten archivieren",

You just need to fill in the part: Translated Text

I've also attached an already translated German file as an example. Please try not to touch the html formatting if any. Also, please use a good text editor like TEXTPAD, don't use notepad.

Here it is.

i am running the application on nt4 in the development environment

NT4 like the one release in 1996? Ouch. Well, that's a tough one. It could be just the instability of everything. I would suggest replacing it with a functional global see here.

If you are even considering an 8.x.x release then you should skip 8.0 and jump to 8.2 since the latter is more stable and less buggy. Also, 8.2 introduced LABVOOP.

Just click on the LabVIEW menu Help>Check for Updates.

I locked it down to Premium Members because normal users kept posting LabVIEW support questions in the knowledge base. :headbang: I gave up and just locked it out. I don't have time for nonsense.

I'm not sure why the preview doesn't have the image however it makes it through fine when you submit it.

I use the keyword search feature all the time. Will the OpenG stuff show up if I put the keyword Array?

I'm preparing a new version with Adam's suggestions for the Code Repository. But I'm reading the CR requisites and seem daunting . I'll try to adapt the code, though.

I'm curious, which specific requirement is daunting? We're just asking for the basics really. Nothing you shouldn't already be doing in your code.

Ok, thanks Jim :thumbup: . This all makes sense now. The original document I referenced is out of date at this point since several key elements are missing. I should of read the NI help. My problem was I did not have (--) and I did not even have the Builder flag set either. Both wrong.

Are there additional RSS feeds for specific forums? The "All of LAVA" feature is nice, but I prefer to have multiple specific feeds.

I could add this. I'd like to get some feedback from others. Is this a feature I should look into?
