Page Display System -1

Please refer attached figure. My requirement for displaying data as drawn in fig. The data will be splitted into 2 part and there should be one scroll bar to control the scrolling. Scrolling should work as drawn in fig. I would like to know whether it possible to achieve this. Also let me know if there is any standred format supported by Labwindows/CVI for monitoring and controlling the data.

Hi,

From the picture I think that the best way to display the data will be a table control.You can get started by looking at the example located at:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\CVI71\samples\userint\colview.prj and C:\Program Files\National Instruments\CVI71\samples\userint\gridview.prj

As for the question "there is any standred format supported by Labwindows/CVI for monitoring and controlling the data" you will have to be more specific. CVI supports GPIB, RS232, OPC, VXI and many other IO protocols. There is not really 1 single standard for IO; it depends on what device you are talking to.

I hope this helps; let me know if you have any further qeustions.

In my opinion this is a too cusomized behaviour to obtain from a standard control.

I too think the best way to display your data is the table control, but it needs some custom code to intercept clicks on the scroll bar and arrange the data as you want.

Another possibility is to ignore the built-in scroll bar and use the scroll bar custom control found in toolslib. Again you will need to code the expected nehaviour. There is a good example in samples\userint\custctrl\scrollbar.

I have to agree with Roberto here. This is a corner case for a very specific situation.

Writing the hole table everytime the user clicks on the scroll bars could be slow. I suggest that you use 2 separate tables with the same data on them. Use a CVI scroll bar to catch the events and then changing the visible range on the tables.

I am attaching a UIR file to demonstrate this example.

I hope this helps.
