Search for Custom Properties with space in Name returns no results.

[DarrenJones]

Hello-- this should be simple, though I haven't found a solution in the forums & documentation:

  When using the Navigator 'Search' on the interface of DIAdem 10.2, no results are returned for Properties with a space in the name.  I realize spaces in a Custom Property are replaced with underscores, although searching for the Property with or without underscores both produce no results.

example: 
  "Run ID" is the Property Name set recorded in LabVIEW.  DIAdem displays this as "Run_ID".  Searching on Property "Run ID" or "Run_ID" both yield no results.
  For the same Group, "TestName" is a Property.  Searching on this works fine.

thanks in advance,
D

Hi Darren,

This was reported to R&D (# CAR 47L9JEON) for further investigation. A possible workaround is to open the TDM file in DIAdem and then immediately save it to the disk. After doing this the property should show up in the search results. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks James- that does work as a work-around.

Is there a way to resave programmatically from LabVIEW (or a batch resave)?

thanks,
Darren

Hi Darren,

I'm assuming from now on you will save your TDM files without the space, but that you have quite a few that need to be updated? If so, you can make use of the DIAdem connectivity VIs for LabVIEW:

DIAdem Open Reference.vi
DIAdem Load Data.vi
DIAdem Save Data.vi
DIAdem Close Reference.vi
