John Lokanis Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Name: Find Text Submitter: John Lokanis Submitted: 17 Jul 2009 Category: User Interface LabVIEW Version: 8.6 Version: 1.0.0 License Type: Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Make this available on the VI Package Network?: Yes Find Text v1.0.0 Copyright © 2009, John Lokanis All rights reserved. Author: John Lokanis LAVA Name: jlokanis Contact Info: Contact via PM on www.lavag.org LabVIEW Versions: Created and tested with LabVIEW 8.6.1 Dependencies: None. Description: This project contains the Find Text.vi and supporting subvis. The Find Text.vi displays a dialog allowing the user to search a text display for a specified string. A reference to the string control must be passed in. When the string is found, the calling VI will become front-most so the string can be highlighted. If the string is not found, an error message is displayed. Searching starts from the cursor location in the text control. You can change the search direction using the radial buttons. The VI will remember previous search strings inside the combo box where you enter the text to find. If you pass in a caller reference, this will be used to center the dialog. Otherwise, the VI will attempt to find it's caller in the call chain and center on that. If you call this VI dynamically, it will center itself on the primary monitor if the caller reference is not passed in. Instructions: Open the 'Example - Find Text.vi' and run it. Select the Find menu function or press Crtl-F to open the Find Text dialog. Known Issues: None Acknowledgements: None Change Log: v1.0.0: Initial release of the code.

Mark Balla Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Submission Approved 7-27-09. Moved to User Interface group. Thanks John Great submission. I look forward to your NI Week presentation Mark Quote Link to comment
John Lokanis Posted July 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Maybe next year. I am only presenting at the local users group now. But, I have some ideas for a few presentations at NI Week 2010 so we will see if any get selected. BTW: noticed that I spelled 'radio buttons' as 'radial buttons' in the description above. I guess technically since they are circular, they are 'radial' in appearance... Quote Link to comment
