data reduction on loading: add start value and data count

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 02-27-2013 12:23 AM 2 Comment

Hello.

The data reduction on loading could be extended to facilitate partial loading of large data sets:

Currently, it shows 'intervall width' or 'interval number' and 'reduction method (1st value, avg. min, max)'.

 

I'd love to have an option to define start value and data count, too. Similar to the FFT-timing dialog, where 'start/number/width' can be defined. Today, I always load the full data set, display in view, mark the relevant area and crop via 'mark data' and delete. Works ok, but when I know that I will need maybe the first 5 secs of a 10 minue measurement for one evaluation, it could be done easier, if I only load what I need.

 

Thank you.

Michael

View: Table scrolling simultaneously with the 2D-Graph

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 02-26-2013 03:45 AM 4 Comment

 

Hi,

it would be helpful to have the following option in the View:

In case of moving the cursor through the 2D-Graph, I would like to have the table scrolling automatically the same way with highlightning the values of the cursors position. 

 

Kind regards

Add block comment/uncomment

Status: Completed Submitted by Active Participant on 01-21-2013 10:27 AM 4 Comment

The script editor needs the ability to comment or uncomment an entire block of text at once, similar to what is present in the Dialog Editor and most other script editors.

Add a scripting console window

Status: Completed Submitted by Active Participant on 01-21-2013 10:23 AM 3 Comment

During script development I'm finding I often want to run little one-off scripts to get some insight into the environment at that particular point in time.  Stuff like...

 

LogFileWrite(ItemInfoGet("MyGlobal"))

 or maybe iterating through a collection to see what it contains.

 

Currently I have to open a new script window, type up my script, and execute it.  This gets to be a headache as I have several temporary script windows open each with a different command I want to use.  It would be nice to have a script console tab available in the watch window where I could type in the commands and have them execute immediately.  Alternatively, an option to highlight a section of a script and execute only that section would allow me to bunch all my commands into a single temporary window.

64-bit version of DIAdem

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 12-05-2012 04:39 PM 4 Comment

I'd like to have a 64-bit version of DIAdem primarily so the program can utilize more than 2GB of RAM.

 

I'd expect that this would improve performance and stability for those using a 64-bit OS (eg win 7 64 bit) and working with large data sets.

Multiple manual scales for multiple waveforms on one graph in VIEW panel.

Status: Completed Submitted by on 11-22-2012 02:12 AM 2 Comment

Hello ALL,

 

there is only one manual scale to be set in a 2D graph in VIEW Panel. It would be a great idea if setting manual scales would allow you to set seperate scales for seperate plots on one graph.

Merge two element list

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 11-21-2012 04:11 AM 1 Comment

Hi

 

I have create an Element List filtering some channels of a group

 

Dim mSyncLst, iGrp
Set iGrp = Data.Root.ActiveChannelGroup
Set mSyncLst = Data.GetChannels(iGrp.Name & "/ABC*") 'List With Several Channels

 

I would like to add to the mSyncLst the channels containing DEF. e.g. Data.GetChannels(iGrp.Name & "/DEF*"), which also contains several channels. Using the method Add mSyncLst, only allows to append one channel each time.

 

Thank you

Programmatic copy function

Status: Completed Submitted by Active Participant on 11-19-2012 09:08 AM 2 Comment

Diadem currently has a copy function for curves within the user interface, as shown below: 

 

 

true.png

 

However, there is no copy function within the scripting api. This means to duplicate a curve programmatically multiple functions. one for each of the properties in the curve, need to be called as shown below: 

 

Dim oMyReportObj, oMyNew2DCurve,

Set oMyReportObj = Report.ActiveSheet.Objects.Item(1)

Set oMyNew2DCurve = oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Add(e2DShapeLine, oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Item(oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Count).Name &"_copy")
oMyNew2DCurve.Shape.XChannel.Reference = oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Item(oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Count-1).Shape.XChannel.Reference
oMyNew2DCurve.Shape.YChannel.Reference = oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Item(oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Count-1).Shape.YChannel.Reference
oMyNew2DCurve.Shape.Settings.Line.Width = eLineWidth0100

...

 

It would be far easier if there were a call to copy a curve directly: 

 

Dim oMyReportObj, oMyNew2DCurve,

Set oMyReportObj = Report.ActiveSheet.Objects.Item(1)

Set oMyNew2DCurve = oMyReportObj.Curves2D.Copy(1)

Polar plots with both negative and positive sector angles

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 11-15-2012 11:58 AM 5 Comment

I generate a very large number of polar plots which are beam patterns for sonar devices. I'm sure that radar folks do the same for their antennae. The standard in the industry for directivity patterns has long been to label the plots with negative angles to the left of boresite and positive numbers to the right. I am constantly asked to label my plots this way, and I have to keep making excuses because DIAdem does not allow this.

 

This is what I need:

Synchronous video capturing with a simple webcam with DIAdem-DAC/Visual

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 10-25-2012 03:41 PM 2 Comment

Hello,

 

because of DIAdem is not able to synchronise captured video files and MDF-data files measured with

 

Vector Canape with all the skills of and in DIAdem-VIEW,

 

how about even capturing a video additional to the other measured data with DIAdem-DAC ??

 

 

Vector Canape can this do with a simple webcam ( a better model from Logitech suffice ) and it really works fine,

 

but DIAdem is much better for the rest of all measuring tasks and so our favourite.

 

 

And yes : DIAdem  can  data acquisition and we like it  !!!  Smiley Happy

DataFinder calculates channel characteristic values during index

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 10-22-2012 07:12 AM 4 Comment

It might require too much computation time but I was wondering if the DataFinder could calculate and store such characteristic values as channel min/max during it's index. I would find this really helpful.

If it is not practical to do on the fly, how about an extra option on the context menu in Navigator - in addition to 'Re-Index File' etc there would be 'Calculate Characteristic Values' which would then calculate and save the valeus back to the files for the file/folder/drive selected.

4D plot in View & Report

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 09-28-2012 07:45 AM 3 Comment

I find 4D plots very useful in LabVIEW, for example for displaying how sound pressure varies across a 3D surface.

It would be very helpful if DIAdem could do the same.

Persistent bookmarks

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 06-15-2012 08:50 AM 3 Comment

So the DIAdem script editor -- which is a nice editor, don't get me wrong 😉 -- has the option to set bookmarks to ease navigation within a lengthy script. I like to use these, but I would like them even more if there were an option to carry them over to the next time I launch DIAdem to work on the script, possibly to mark where I left off, or to enable me to jump right back into the fray, as it were.

 

Has this been requested before, and if no, what is the likelyhood of this making it into a future version?

 

Thanks in advance and best regards

Leo

print textobjects in pdfs not as pictures but as text

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 04-18-2012 05:52 AM 1 Comment

There are two ways to add text to reports.

The first one is the normal textbox without format features like numbering and intendation with bullets and they are printable as text via the pdf-Diadem printer. The second option is to use textobjects. In this case the format functions like numbering and intendation with bullets is very useful to make little summary pages especially at the end of reports. However, when they are printed via the Diadem-PEF-Printer these textobjects appear as pictures. Hence, the text cannot be copied and used without OCR... also the appearance is not that nice, because of all the pixels instead of true type fonts...

It would be really helpful if these textobjects could also be saved with text.

Better Management of Report Pages

Status: Completed Submitted by Member on 04-06-2012 09:52 AM 6 Comment

Right now, you can only delete one page at a time (using delete or the "manage...") feature.

 

Why cant I just select multiple pages and "delete all".  Or in the "manage..." feature, why cant I select more than one at a time (otherwise what is the little check box for?) and delete all?

 

Would be very helpful to add these features

Having Network Directories in DataFinder That Don't Hang When Network is Disconnected

Status: Completed Submitted by on 01-30-2012 11:39 AM 2 Comment

Having network directories available in the DataFinder is a great tool. However, if a network directory is added as a default search locations AND the network cable is unplugged, DIAdem will hang for a very long period of time. Windows commands are used to query for network locations. If not connected to the network, the timeout for these commands is quite large. 

 

While this is technically expected behavior, it is not ideal software functionality to hang if a network cable is unplugged.
