Lets get stared right away 🙂

Thanks!

Hello Piotr,

sorry, but I understand your request in two ways:

a) there are a list from existing presentations, where we can choose some topics to see on the next meeting.

b) we propeses topics for possible presentations

Regards

Actually both, someone volunteers with their topics and other select what the want to see 🙂

I use a very fast and useful data plotting library in C#, called ScottPlot: https://github.com/swharden/ScottPlot

Its MIT licence makes it very attractive (can be used for business for free). I will try to develop some .NET example in LV until the next meeting, so we could use this package from LabVIEW directly. ScottPlot can handle large data sets and plot them very fast. Graphs/charts were always a weak point of LabVIEW, specially if we need to display large data. We always had to develop some extra code like decimation/averaging to avoid lags, etc. 

Besides, I would show some data visualization examples I use recently, and how we can combine these methods. There is a "GNUplot like" scripting language, called GLE ( http://glx.sourceforge.net/index.html ) which can produce vector graphics and also bitmaps. I often interface GLE using command line options from LV or C#.

So in principle, this short presentation would be a kind of brainstorming to discuss different data visualization techniques together, and share best practices/ideas between us. I gave the following title to this planned talk:

"Combining the power of C#, GLE (Graphics Layout Engine) and LabVIEW for fast data visualization - some concepts and ideas"

Some screenshots from some of my C# apps below (I will start to experiment with LV soon too using these plotting libs), plus here is a limited GLE example which I made few years ago: https://forums.ni.com/t5/Community-Documents/Interface-to-Graphics-Layout-Engine-GLE-to-create-publi...

Hello BudLUG Community, please remember to add and vote for the presentations for the 2nd BudLUG in January.

Thanks!

Hi Everyone! 

Here are a few ideas for the next meeting (BudLUG#3):

-Package design principles: As we have talked about SOLID we should take it to a higher level and talk about proper package design principles (REP, CRP, CCP, ADP, SDP, SAP). 

-Proper error handling strategies (I would love to hear about solutions)

-Actor model based frameworks in LabVIEW - An introduction ( DQMH, JKI SMO, NI Actor framework, etc.)

Hey Blokk,

           I think it is a great idea. I would like to hear more about it 🙂

Sincerely yours,

Denis

Unfortunately I was very busy at work and also with a side job in the last months, so I could not play with LabVIEW 😞 The power of the dark side is too strong, C# takes all my time 😄

I even could not participate the last week BudLUG meeting. If I get more time in the next weeks, I will try to come up with some LV examples.

Regards folks,
