TS Popup from LAVA - Adding 3-input Cluster

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi all,

 

This is some great code for producing pop-ups:

 

http://lavag.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=31 

 

 

I'm trying to modify to include a 3-input Cluster pop-up (there is already 2-input and 4-input clusters) and having trouble.

 

I've tried modifying the Popup cluster Type definition (the one that is hidden on the front panel) by changing the 4-input cluster to be a 3-input.  This hasn't worked correctly (I'll post an image).

 

What steps to take to modify the code to achieve adding a new type of pop-up?

 

Thanks,

 

Battler.

Well the write up sounds interseting but without an image to tempt me I never tried it out (my job rules out any code that does not ship with the NI disk or I wrote myself, extreme quality control). If you post some images and the code of what you have so far and maybe we can help you.

That definitely controls things but not sure about the quality part.

Hi Ben,

 

Thanks for the responses.  I feel better.

 

I have managed to change the code.  I modified the 4-input cluster to a 3-input in the TS.Popup Cluster type def.

 

If anyone is really interested I could post something.  Problem is usually when I'm posting these messages I'm at a machine which doesn't even have LV.

Good. I love type defs. While I am interested in helping others with LV challenges, I have not trouble with keeping myself busy just keeping up with commitments I have already ( I have code I paid [with my own allowace!] somebody else to write for me that I have had a chance to investigate).

 

So I'll save my ammunition for another battle(r). Smiley Tongue

Hi all,

 

These Type Sensitive Popup VIs don't seem to work once built as an exe.

 

For example, using a multi-column listbox the Popup shows but the cell s never updated and it hangs.

 

Has someone else tried building the Demo in the files as an exe?

 

Thanks,

 

Battler.

I have no experience with this library, but I can see that it includes several dynamically called VIs. If you do not explicitly add them to the build (in the Source Files section), they will not be added to the EXE. Also, don't post all over the place. It's considered quite rude.
