Re : Re: Display jpg on a full screen for LCD testing

[Carlo R.]

Hello,

I have been using the Read JPEG File to display basic RGB jpg in a Picture Indicator. Is there a way to display in a full screen mode? I will be doing colorimetry and luminance testing on LCD displays.

Thanks in advance !

Create a VI with no title, menu and tool bar and make it fullscreen.

Make the picture control as large as necessary, can also be done programmatically and load the picture.

I have found one solution in the Activex Examples section using PowerPoint to display sideshows in full-screen mode. Other solutions not using Activex are welcome.

Thanks André. I was replying to my previous message at the same time.

Here I show how to set a VI to fill the whole screen.

Now you  need code that loads a jpg (allreay available in LabVIEW) and put it in a picture control that automatically resizes.

That's up to you

Thanks Ton. I just completed by Labview basic I and II course last week. I will put this into practice.

Carlo,

You might wish to consider a different image storage format. JPEG is a lossy format and can have strange artifacts on some images. .png might be a better choice. I am no graphics expert, so someone else may have other advice.

Lynn,

I agree. .png, .bmp, .gif, at full resolution.
