Writing text with NXT icon

Hi

 

Using LabView 2010 I tried to write text in certain x,y position and not in line. I could not find an equivalent Icon to do the job, Needed to use the NXT_DisplayText from the remote vi library (see attached picture)

 

The Vis from the remote library cannot be connected to the new NXT icon vi's  (Why?) and when i tried to link the sequence flow out from such a vi to the new vi i get an error message.

 

Questions:

how can I use the new NXT Icons to do the job?

was I right to select the remote library vi?

what should i do if i want to control the flow sequence usingboth types of vi's

 

attached is a description of a program I wrote in which i had this problem

 

Thanks

 

Moshe

Hi Moshe,

 

Can you post both a screen shot of the error you are getting and your VI?

 

Thanks!

Hi Tanya 

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

Although I posted this call for help, I have continued to search for the solution myself and finally I found that there is a vi to write to certain XY  location but that vi was not presented in the default NXT functions pallet ,nor was it clear to me that such vi exists. I have found it in the dual mode vi library C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\NXT\Dual Mode Library and attached it also to the tools.

 

Now I did not need to use old remote vi s so it is OK now I attach the program I wrote and if you find this example usefull for showing others, you can use it.

 

 

Regards
