  1. QUOTE(pdc @ Dec 14 2007, 02:23 PM) I specifically remember there being a note in the 82 ->821 upgrade notes about in-range and coerce. Make it so first mate
  2. Mad Deal http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ME:B:EF:US:1123 check it out 1.3Mp webcam w/ integrated mic under 15 bucks
  3. Look at the LV options dialog. This is much better than using tabs. Give a list to the left, and use a sub-panel to the right. That's what NI does and it looks pretty handy. Flexible too when it comes to adding / removing pages ~,~ ps, sorry if someone already said this, don't have time to read through the thread.
  4. QUOTE(yasmeen85 @ Dec 14 2007, 09:28 AM) Look up dynamically loading VIs through the usage of "vit" (vi templates). The issue is that this is not a really simple issue. It is not difficult, but requires a good knowledge of using VI server. Do some research on dynamically loading VIs and come back w/ some more questions so we can guage how much more you need. Good luck Norm ps: the short answer. If you have the other pages already made, and they can be run by themselves w/ out needing the top level running, then all you need to do is open a reference to the child pages using open VI reference, then call the RunVI method on the opened reference.
  5. Another thought would be a spin on the LVx concept. Check it out below.....please.. http://forums.lavag.org/LVx-Exported-LV-Fu...lity-t9437.html
  6. I've been needing testers of the LVx post that I sent about 4 weeks ago!!! http://forums.lavag.org/LVx-Exported-LV-Fu...lity-t9437.html This is some really cool inter-process communication using objects and dynamic events. Bueller...... Bueller......
  7. QUOTE(rolfk @ Dec 10 2007, 01:35 AM) <cooling> The train of thought that led to this rant was less "they don't have this so it must mean they don't care" but rather "they don't care to and not having this just reminds me how much that makes me mad". This is because I would like NI to focus more of their efforts on enabling us as programmers rather than doing it as an afterthought. /<cooling>
  8. I didn't download the demo, but I did the same thing and experienced the same issues w/ win32 API long ago. Was kind of cool seeing the LV windows contained and such..... until it crashed. As far as it being integrated into LV in a previous beta, I never saw FP inside a FP, but there was the Integrated Development environment that came out w/ 8.0 beta that allowed you to develop w/in a master parent window, but when it came to you making 1 FP a child of another, I don't think it was there. I'm all hopeful now that we'll get a work from AQ or someone @ NI behind the reasons, perceived or real why they are not implementing it. I suppose it goes back to them not caring if LV is a real general purpose programming language, they just want the Scientists and Engineers to be able to throw SHIT UI's together use their hardware. "see Justin G's post about mythbusters for example" Really the more I think about NI's lack of care about touting LV as a general programming language that can go for the future, the more I realize that it matters little to them that we be able to use LV to create good programs. As long as the engineers and scientists can get their data from the hardware, who cares about the usability of the program. </Rant>
  9. Ok, so I know we can all find clever ways using sub-panels to mimic children windows being contained within a FP, BUT isn't it time that NI gave us the native ability to do this within LV? and in the spirit of the season Dear Santa, I have been a good boy all year. I have wired all of my error clusters and have not revealed any of NIs NDA information. My Chrismas wish this year is not for myself but for all the little boys and girls at NI especially Dr.T . Please give them a clue so that they may stop rolling out new major versions of LV every 6-12 months and fix the ever exponentailly increasing number of bugs present in their software so it stops crashing on me. but if that's too hard, children windows will have to do Sincerly Norm Jr. PS Lovin your beard, all I can pull of is a moustache and a flavor saver ~,~
  10. It depends on how you want the Panel that calls them to operate after they are opened. There are many methods for bringing up a FrontPanel of a VI and having it run, so answering this question is critical to your larger topic. A few examples of how you would answer I want the top level VI (caller) to continue running and still be interacted with I want the top level VI to stop running and the user can only use the window that just popped up I want the top level VI to go away and only show the new one. I want the top level VI to keep running but not be interacted with while these windows run. Just think on it for a while of how you want your users to interact and let us know.
  11. BITCHIN!!! Making that ejector seat will be much easier now. No need to pop the roof off, just press the door button and tilt the seat to the side. BRILLIANT! I would love to see crash tests w/ that. Sounds like a Korn song to me 'DEAD BODIES EVERYWHERE!'
  12. I'm sure that 'Acquire Data' was a recent addition. Well at least the run continuously button isn't used.
  13. Should we state no nominating your own submission? ~,~
  14. Sujith...... uh.... you've definetly posted into the wrong topic. Try again in something like hardware under LV general.
  15. Dangit, I thought you were going to say that the MythBusters Crew was using it in their own tests. I was going to put out a challenge to see how many of us could get resumes into them and see who could get hired for their mad LV skills
  16. (1) Does LabVIEW Web Server can be embedded into the microcontroller ? (2) On server side( on our instrument ) is there anything require other than Embedded Web Server? Or anything that need to be considered? (3) On client side, as per I know, it is required LabVIEW runtime environment. Is there any thing else that might require to consider. (4) Please let me know the issues & limitations for embedded web server and remote application in LabVIEW. Thanks in advance. 1) What kind of microcontroller? Typically a true LV web server can NOT be run on a microcontroller. 2)To do what? what embedded Web Server 3)What kind of data do you want out, if you want to display an embedded front panel then no, but if you are using a microcontroller then you won't be able to have the web server running anyways. 4) If you neglect that you are talking about having this running on a microcontroller, since that can not happen, there are a number of limitations regarding embedded front panels on web pages w/ regards to control not being responsive enough, if a lot of data is being transferred you can lose connections, if the FP is too big you can have issues w/ the browsers and usability and as you use it i'm sure you'll find many other limitations. It's not the most polished product NI has in LV
  17. Well thanks for sending your love our way. The Captain luvs you too ~,~
  18. Oh my.... my oh my oh my.... I use this ability a lot in my code, this could be catastrophic for some programs. oh my.
  19. I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.
  20. QUOTE(Jander @ Nov 22 2007, 01:47 PM) What you're asking for is not very clear, but I'll do my best to answer, but please respond w/ clarification. If you have 1 array and want to make another array of a different type, but with the same number of columns and 1 extra row you simply have to create it. But the contents of the arrays are in question. But I have a feeling that you're looking for something like this http://lavag.org/old_files/monthly_11_2007/post-208-1195786003.jpg' target="_blank">
