John Lokanis Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Anyone know why this happens? If you use the FP.Get Image method on a VI that is in the normal window state and then in the minimized state, you get a different (shifted) image from the minimized one. Here is an example: get vi image minimized.vi minimize me.vi Bug or expected behavior? Any workarounds? Quote Link to comment
Kurt Friday Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Hi John I built the same code in LV 7.1 and you don't see the issue, and its fine in 8.2.2 however at 8.5 you see the behavior you are experiencing. So it looks like a bug. A possible work around may be to build a LV 7.1 dll that does this operation for you. Quote Link to comment
John Lokanis Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Guess I better submit this to NI as a bug then. Quote Link to comment
Antoine Chalons Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Guess I better submit this to NI as a bug then. You should report the bug anyway, it will surely not be fixed in LV 2009 but maybe in the next release in early 2010, so you'll probably need to use a work-around until then Quote Link to comment
Yair Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 I already reported it to NI in the past (CAR 160091). It appears in the beta pages as deferred (who knows until when. It's not exactly a critical issue). Quote Link to comment
John Lokanis Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 It's not exactly a critical issue Unless you need it to work! In my case I use this with a web service to get remote images of running VIs. If the user minimizes the app, my image is messed up! Guess I will just have to wait... Thanks for filing the CAR...
