has anyone tried (developped???) the iPhone app "VIremote"? is it good?

The answer will probably depend on why can you not use dll? I don't know how to do it in non-windows OS and if you are in Windows then I don't know how else you can do it...

Hi, If you're running on Windows you can use the function "SetCursorPos" of the User32.dll. Si VI attached in LV 86 set cursor position with user32.vi

Oh well... I didn't know it would work for a mixed selection of free text and control labels... It is also true that I tend to jump on scripting a little bit too much these days. BUT for a very large number of label to resize and a large number of VIs to perform that task on it would save time

Nothing is easier than using vugie's scripting sandbox for that, you'd need to have the LabVIEW API installed though (and to know a bit about scriptng of course). That said, I'm not sure reducing font size is the best option, maybe creating some subVIs along with a different architecture would be better. Can you post a screen shot of your man VI so we can help you in a meaningful way?

I couldn't check because I don't have LV 7.1 installed at the moment but I'm sure that at least you have it for XY Graph, not sure for Waveform Chart... To check, create a property node on you chart and see at the same path here : Hope this helps

I think you can read the Y Scales Positions, sort through them to find where they start and where they end and then set the property "Plot Area Size" and "Plot Area Position" to reduce/move it so that it doesn't overlap with the scales, I haven't tried though. Good luck.

Well... If you go on the OpenG forum and check the timestamp difference between post asking for support and replies you may find out that in most cases answers come faster than 2 days and you also probably can find a few post that waited a bit longer than that. But what's the big deal? Anyway, for a company that has a product on LVTN and applies for the gold level, how do you make sure they *always* provide support within 2 days? Are you going to test them each week? The OpenG community has been providing great support for a long time now. Amongst companies that have products on LVTN, who's going to provide the same level of support (in terms of response time AND quality) over the same period of time?

And before that, were they ignoring that war could be armful for innocent people as well?

I don't have that feeling at all, I think the exact opposite in fact. Reading what we were given by the 5 newspapers I did not learn much at all , except that the US diplomacy is quite pragmatic.

well, you can watch a topic, it does pretty much the same, no? ok.. it's in separate places...

I think it's only for Code Repository items. Go there, give 5 stars clic the little "like" buttom at the bottom right corner (not the facebook one) on an item and then it will appear in your list. (I think)

Hey... well... True I went a bit fast and forgot to check if a child already exists before creating it , but really it's not a lot of work. Each time, before creating a child item, you just need to check if it already exists. That's what the first bit of code is doing (tree function "check"). Give it a try and post what you came up with if you still have trouble.

with a little bit of imagination tree.vi

So you could use something like a "tagging" RCF plugins with options like "tag as unclean / buggy / need doc". How about something similar to vugie's "Label Manager", you'd have possibility to apply different tags (editable list) and when you launch the manager, it would search the project you are in to find all the tag.

True :-o I voted for that idea and then thought it would be easy to implement it myself. Thanks for reminding me.

Hi all, I just made this little plugin for when I work outside of a project (I know... I should not...) to see where are the subVIs located on my hard drives. Here's a video to that shows it on an OpenG VI that I loke a lot. <iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/18525699" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><p> I can't post it right now because it contains some internal dependencies but I could clean it if someone was interested. anyone?

I think this is the thread you're talking about. But we can use control's and VI's references across contexts, so why not events? If it's indeed not possible, that's sad...

Haven't checked 7.1, I'm using 8.6. I don't think you can get Style ID for a constant... Though if your target is a BD terminal you can get the ref of the corresponding FP control and then get the Style ID. I've made a scripting sandbox plugin for that (in LV8.6). Show Class & Style.vi

At least the style ID property can help. I think I saw more info somewhere but I can't remember where... Hope this helps

That's an interesting topic! I made a very simple "focus.vi" a while ago, it has a required enum typedef input with a series of states (urgent, bug, doc, reuse, etc). depending on the state, a pop-up would show up when the VI is executed ; that's how I leave notes for myself into projects. That's very basic but it helps me. I though about improving it / integrate it into the project so that my colleagues could use it too but talking about it with them I realized that there was quite a lot of work so I gave up and keep using my simple "focus.vi". That said, it would be cool if we could have a LAVA discussion on how should that be implemented into LabVIEW and then drop a feature idea on NI forums so that NI Engineers implement it for us Cheers

I suggest you take a look at the Tree Control API. Hope this helps
