[W] Built application asking for CD

2004-05-06 Thread andrew johnson
I have a built application that runs from a CD, acting as a software installer, placing the required files for a larger application, making Registry entries, and talking to a SQL Server database. LVRT is alongside the executable, it runs from the CD just fine. At one point in the install

Re: Detrmine all combinations of string arrays

2004-05-06 Thread henry
This would work if I knew how many 1D arrays I have. If there were three 1D arrays at runtime, I would have no way of adding a third ForLoop. Then the next time the program calls this vi there might be 9 1D arrays and the time after that there might be 4, etc.

Re: How to add plot areas?

2004-05-06 Thread Greg McKaskle
I don't understand how to use subPanels or dynamically loaded panels that are edited using the legend properties when idle and then shown to the user. Can you tell me more what kind of legend properties can be used to control the display number of the plot areas in stack plots? After

Re: memory goes crazy when calling a sub-vi

2004-05-06 Thread Greg McKaskle
Thanks for your insight, Greg. I was surprised to learn that global references each contain a copy of the data. This implies that each time data is written to a global, each copy of that global must get updated. The process sounds amazingly inefficient. Now I know why globals are taboo

Re: change display size of plot area

2004-05-06 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Simple way would be to place a transparent boolean button over each graph so that you can use the button event to pop up a big graph and put it away. There are other ways as well. If this doesn't work for you, comment.

RE: More then one active Vi with open Front panel?

2004-05-06 Thread Michael Aivaliotis
Well I'm not arguing the idea of eliminating multiple loops. I definitly use the concept in every app I write. I'm stating that parallel processes shouldn't necessarily be tied to the main user interface VI by being contained on the diagram of that VI. Yes, it is comforting to see your code in

Re: synchronising cluster graph problem

2004-05-06 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Turn off run with multiple threads option. You are probably seeing the effects of user interface thread not getting any time to update the graph. Also set front panel smooth updates. This may not yield the performance that you want but it may be the answer to your question.

the DAQ function on the pallet that will return the device name for each device number. use this to create an abstraction manager to reference named devices. Keep going with the approach of reuse without hardcoding info. It will be worth it.
