Allow longer constant names for tabpanels

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Trusted Enthusiast on 06-10-2012 04:42 AM 2 Comment

Hello,

 

right now, the length of the constant names assigned to tab panels in the UI editor seems to be limited to 10 characters, e.g. TABPANEL_10 does not work anymore.

 

I suggest to lift this limitation.

Locking GUI Controls

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Active Participant on 03-26-2012 12:14 PM 3 Comment

I would like to see a way to lock a control's coordinates so that they are not accidently selected and moved once they have been placed on the GUI.  It would be nice to lock the control to the GUI if I know that I am not moving the control again.

Better treatment of linear -> logarithmic scaling of graph axes

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Trusted Enthusiast on 05-03-2012 02:37 PM 4 Comment

Hello,

 

as discussed in this thread changing the map mode of a graph axis from linear to logarithmic scaling may perform sub-optimal if the graph shows plots containing zero or negative data values. Fortunately, there is a workaround.

 

The suggestion presented here is to make this workaround unnecessary... Ideally, the graph should take care by itself if plots need to be updated, i.e. changing the attributes ATTR_XMAP_MODE and ATTR_YMAP_MODE from VAL_LINEAR to VAL_LOG should result in updated plots.

Tree: ATTR_VISIBLE for SetTreeItemAttribute ()

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Member on 03-12-2012 05:55 AM 2 Comment

Same as the post "ATTR_DIMMED". I want to hide some tree items without deleting them. My work around is currently, to set the item size of the item, which shall be not visible, to 1 (0 is not supported). The disadvantage is, that the "small" items are still shown and there are big spaces between the "visible" tree items.

Adding options to context menu on menu items in the UIR editor

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Proven Zealot on 03-07-2012 02:32 AM 1 Comment

Presently there is a context menu for menu elements to generate / jump to a menu item callback. These items are not present in top level menus that have a callback function installed (those with the exclamation mark appended), where only 'Edit' item is present. It would be handy to have these options added to those items too.

Add a numeric control ATTR_SET_RADIX

Status: Duplicate Submitted by Member on 01-25-2012 01:26 PM 2 Comment

When a user changes a numeric control radix, LabWindows/CVI generates an EVENT_RADIX_CHANGE event and sends the event to the control callback function.

eventData1 = The new format of the radix(VAL_DECIMAL_FORMAT, VAL_HEX_FORMAT, VAL_OCTAL_FORMAT, or VAL_BINARY_FORMAT).  Provide an attribute to set the radix from source code.
