We're all just humans, aren't we?

Quick answer could be something like this : But maybe you could change your whole application to only acquire the data you're going to plot. Can you show how you setup your data acquisition? Hope this helps

This blog post does give some good info, but it doesn't clearly tell us about if an App (or a user) would need to be ran as admin to have write access on the files.

Hi James, Can you tell us a bit more about issues with ProgramData? This is were my installers place the config files for which it needs read/write access. If there are specific issues, I'd like to know :-o Reminder

It does, in fact I thinkit uninstalls everything that is installed directly by the install.

Hi, We use C:\ProgramData (and in most cases we like the fact that it is hidden) because that's what we get when we call the "Get System Dir" with "Public Application Data". That said, in the case of our application we don't want customers to play around with the config files, if you do want them to have access to it, you may want to place those config files in a folder that is not hidden.

OpenG candidate?

I totally agree with that! The issue is that some of these very useful tools are not available as VIP. What I do to be able to have all my LV tool on any computer I use is have a VIPC for everything that is available as a VIP and have a installer (that I built from a lvproj) that installs all the tools that are not VIPs. It would be cool to repackage all the tool as VIP but I'm not too sure about licence issues that it would cause.

Chinese people are apparently very superstitious and the sound "4" (pronounced in Chinese of course) is close to the sound for death (or dead) so you won't find many fours in China. One funny extent of that is that non-Chinese people leaving in China have cell phone numbers full of 4, because Chinese people refuse to have a number containing a 4. I also heard that on her fourth pregnancy a Chinese woman would automatically have twins, but I'm not too sure about that one...

RANT ON http://lavag.org/top...es-to-work-for/ I wish fortune had a ranking for "the best company to be a partner of". Used to have 25 licences for 1 unit of money. And now the new offer is 5 licences for 1.25 unit of money. With what in return? peanuts. How am I supposed to feel? Wander why they didn't send the new price for 25... maybe to not give me a heart attack... it's nice to think about that! thank you very much who-ever-it-is that-had-this-brilliant-idea! RANT OFF I was gonna add that this year, for the first time in about 10 years we did NOT receive any new-year's-best-wishes card from NI... but I won't add it.

you use a non-english LV version and want to give feedback to NI on localization? >> vote here note : I'm not using localized LV at work, but when I teach LV at university the students do use localized versions so I get to see some mistakes and feel like I should help NI to improve that.

Oups... I'm just realizing now that I didn't understand what dannyt said, I first thought he meant that the 'Fit VI window to Content.vi' should not take into account Error in & Error out clusters when resizing... reading jgcode's answer I realized my mistake. Sorry for that. And then now I don't think the original idea is that good.

I really like this idea!

I imagine that, in a way, the evolution you're talking about is related to that comment of yours : "In 2002, when users were just seeing LV 6.1, I was looking forward to what would eventually be LV 8.2. Today, I am officially looking forward to LV 2016. Or 2017. Not sure." As Daklu said, this is brutal teasing! Good luck with your new role!

I disagree too, I was kidding. I think it's a interesting way to start self-paced learning of a new language, it reminds me of .

This website wants to teach the world to code... and it teaches textual languages... it's like teaching driving with a blind fold!

I don't remember of any such feature... But surely you can set your browser to do that for you. Extensions in firefox and chrome do that quite well and can handle many languages.

I have no good answer to that... Was it possible in LV8.6? I think the first time I made those VIs it was in LV8.6 and then I just upgraded the LV version without modifying the code. Sounds like a good idea to me. Any other idea anyone?

Hello, I recently used TDMS files in a customer application and for that purpose I made VIs to write/read clusters containing parameters to/from TDMS file. These VIs are basically *copies* of the Read Variant Key.vi and Write Variant Key.vi from the OpenG Variant Configuration File palette so I thought it would be a good idea to add it to OpenG. Hopefully it could help someone. PS: haven't tested these VIs extensively (with all possible data types in LabVIEW) but they do work fine with big clusters containing 1D and 2D arrays. Read Property Key from TDMS File.vi Write Property Key to TDMS File.vi
