A tool to export a video of DIAdem VIEW, playing a synchronized video, map, audio and data

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 05-18-2012 09:47 AM 6 Comment

It's very common you need to do a presentation with several information and if you can put a video playing a synchronized video, map, audio and data graphs, like DIAdem VIEW do, your presentation will be cause a excellent impression. To do this today you need a capture screen toll, If DIAdem have a native tool to do this it would be great.

Status: Declined Submitted by on 07-27-2014 07:49 PM 6 Comment

Hello.

 

I have a customer who would like to use 3D Axis systems on VIEW section.

 

This function is for Report section.

As you can see below.DIAdem_Report.png

 

He would like to realize this function on VIEW section as well.

 

I wish this function would be made for VIEW section as well.

Create a web-based DIADem client

Status: Declined Submitted by Active Participant on 02-16-2011 09:49 AM 5 Comment

I think DIADem would be a great solution if it came with a web-based client which would allow users to:

 

- Login remotely using a standard web-browser

- Allow users to access data from their web-browser without having to install any exectuables or active-x components

- Basically allows similar functionality of the VIEW tool, execpt make it web-based.

 

DIADem would be a great collaboration tool if it could be used without having to install a bunch of EXEs on every computer.  And going for a Citrix-style thin-client solution is just too costly.  Built-in web-based access would be awesome.

Changing defualt legend for 2D plot

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 02-06-2015 09:36 AM 6 Comment

Every time I add some new 2D plots in my views, the default legend would be the 4 items. I do not need the X and Y ever, but would like to have some other properties instead.

It is very time consuming to click on each and every plot to make the change, while the Settings-Options-View would not let me change it. It would be nice if the default plot format can be customized.

Need a global setting to set the default type for 2D Axis View Display (Stair Curve instead of Line)

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 10-25-2012 09:46 AM 2 Comment

The default type for a 2D Axis view display is line, but for all our signals we need stair curve. So I have to manually go to display settings and set the type to stair curve for every channel. If there are many channels that is very tedious. It would be nice to have a global setting that can be set for all view displays.

Channel Table Inserts

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 12-16-2011 12:32 PM 2 Comment

When dragging and dropping a channel into a View or Report table from the Data Portal, no matter where you release the channel, it's always appended to the end.  This can be frustrating if you have a large number of channels in the table, forcing you to rearrange the table after each channel is added.

 

I would like to propose the ability to drop channels in-between columns of the table, OR append channels on the end.

I would think that the area you drag the channel into would decide where it inserts:

  Between 2 channel headers (anywhere in the "Selected Channels" section or above) = Insert

  Anywhere on the "Channel Contents" section, row numbers, or blank area without channels = Append to end

 

Thanks!

Save Icon (vs. Save As or Save All)

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 02-23-2012 12:49 PM 1 Comment

In the DIAdem interface, there are menubar buttons available that allow the user to "Save ___ As...", whether it's a script, SUD, layout, etc.  In the script editor, there is also a "Save All" button that saves all of the opened scripts.  However, 9 times out of 10 I just want to save the current layout/script/whatever.  It would be great to have a standard "Save" button either in addition to or in place of the "Save As..." button in the menubar.

 

(Yes, I know I can use the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+S" or click "File --> Save" but these options are not as readily apparent as the "Save As..." or "Save All" icons, so I find myself clicking one of those and then having to click several more times just to get out of it...when all I wanted was a one-click save.)

 

An added benefit would be (like in the Script editor), if the file has not changed then the "Save" icon could be grayed out.  That way the user would know that the current state of the current script/layout/etc was saved to disk.

Plotting True/False Channels

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 03-04-2014 01:53 PM 4 Comment

I work with a lot of data that contains true/false parameters.  I spend a good amount of time converting these channels to 0's and 1's in order to plot them with other numerical parameters.  Excel will automatically plot true/false parameters as 0's and 1's, but I prefer to use DIAdem.  It would be very helpful if DIAdem could plot these without converting them.

Indication of the start point and end point of a trip - DIAdem VIEW Map

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 09-20-2013 05:21 PM 1 Comment

Hello,

 

What I am missing in the DIAdem VIEW Map option is the start point and end point of a plotted trip in the DIAdem VIEW Map option.

 

It would be nice to have this option like it is in Google Maps and even better if this is possible for multiple trips (for instance with the option to use/select the engine speed as an input value to divide the different trips in case of merged data). See the attachement for an example!

 

Thanks!

Points Of Interest - DIAdem VIEW Map

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 09-20-2013 06:45 AM 1 Comment

Hello,

 

It would be very helpful if there is a possibility to indicate Points Of Interest in the DIAdem VIEW Map screen.

 

I have a list of appr. 900 interesting locations (workshops/dealers) in Europe and if I draw a route on a map in the DIAdem VIEW it would be very helpful if the I could indicate the workshop/dealer locations, to see for instance quickly that issues occured at a workshop/dealer or close to a workshop/dealer.

 

Thanks!

Allocation of page IDs in VIEW / printing options

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 08-20-2013 08:18 AM 1 Comment

When you have loads of pages in VIEW and would like to print a specific one, there is

 

1. no option in the print menu to print "selected page", and

2. no way to find out which page number you are currently on, except for counting manually or per script.

 

Even in the "manage" menu you get no information about it. So any ID link would be great.

Allow Multiple Display Objects in DIAdem VIEW Map

Status: Declined Submitted by on 02-06-2013 04:46 PM 2 Comment

There is no way to initialize two "cursors" or objects in the DIAdem VIEW Map Display Type. It would be helpful to be able to track to or more objects moving on the map simultaneously.

Add live measurement fields, like an oscope, utilizing cursors to select curve data to be measured.

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 11-19-2012 01:02 PM 2 Comment

Add a function to setup live measurements of curve data between cursors.  As the cursors move the function uses the new curve data between the cursors to immediately update the measurement field(s).  This functions comes standard on most advanced digital oscilloscopes.  The oscopes' usually have a measurement screen where measurement parameters are entered for the specific measurement desired.  My immediate desire was just to measure RMS between verticle cursors but by no means should this function be limited to one measurement type.

VIEW to Display Communication Bus Data Values (Strings)

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 10-26-2012 01:21 PM 1 Comment

Would like the option to display bus data (string value). This is useful for displaying communication bus data such as serial UART, SPI, I2C, etc. Instead of a plotting a single line, plot two lines with the string data value (hex, decimal, ASCII) in between. Example below is serial UART data, the digital serial bit pattern and the decoded byte value in hex. The second screenshot is from another program, but it would be nice if DIAdem had this capability too!

 

Instead of this:

Allow adding graphic images to the background of a 2D axis system in VIEW

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 10-17-2012 11:50 PM 1 Comment

This ability to add graphic images to the background of a 2D axis system was just added to Report in DIAdem 2012.  Would like to be able to do the same in VIEW.

Do not re-draw plots when a new set of data is added

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 09-17-2012 10:45 AM 2 Comment

I'm new to Diadem so this may be an option that I've not discovered yet...

 

I have very large data files which take a couple of seconds to display on a chart.  Annoyingly if I want to add an extra plot to an existing graph Diadem re-draws all the graphs, not just the new data.  I have my own LabVIEW code which only plots new data whilst leaving old plots on the graph and it really speeds up the process - can you do something similar with Diadem?

DIAdem VIEW synchronization should respect channel units.

Status: Declined Submitted by on 01-20-2012 05:47 PM 3 Comment

For example, if the Waveform X-Step Width of a waveform channel is "500", DIAdem VIEW synchronization - using the default playback rate of "1" - will playback one value every 500 seconds, as though it is assuming that the channel was recorded with one data point every 500 seconds.  If you set the Waveform X-Unit to "ms" (because you realize your data was recorded every 500 milliseconds), the playback rate of VIEW synchronization is still one value every 500 seconds.  The only way to adjust the playback speed is to adjust the VIEW synchronization playback rate.  It would be nice if VIEW synchronization playback respected channel units.

Decimal form for cursor values in "View" panel

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 07-21-2014 04:48 PM 2 Comment

I would like the cursor values to always display in decimal form (as opposed to scientific form), regardless of value size. There is plenty of room on the base of the window, as well as the box that pops up, and the scientific form does not show enough precision.

VIEW Contour CCN Value

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 07-17-2013 09:33 AM 1 Comment

For a VIEW Contour, CCN results in the Y-channel instead of the Z-channel, which is less convenient if trying to link to group properties where the Z channel is in a different source group from the Y channel.

 

Visible when adding freetext:

@@chnname(CCN)@@

 

Would it be possible to have the Z-Channel as the CCN channel value (hoping this is just a leftover from VIEW's standard 2D functionality, rather than a 'feature')?
