I wanted to control the part of the picture element for movement of a picture element on the screen, visibility of the picture element assaigning timeing factor and so on for my automaton project

Look in the LabVIEW/Example/Picture folder on your hard disk. There is a shipping robot.vi that demonstrate all you need to learn.
There is something equivalent (Robot arm.vi) in 3D. Download the free 3D picture toolkit from here [broken link removed]

Hope this helps.

Hi,

thanks cc for your help but
I am running the labview software with version 7.0 which is not supported by your program, it asks for v 7.1 and higher version, the first example that was quoted was helpful but it is required to be developed using some natural picture images like BMP, can someone help.

thanks to all

a "Natural" picture image can be read from file with the "Read bitmap file" function (in the "Graphic & sound>Graphic formats" subpalette). Then, the image can be displayed with the "Draw flattened pixmap" function (in the "Graphic & Sound>Picture functions" subpalette).

Thanks for your sugestion CC,
The main obstacle that i am facing is that after getting the BMP onto my front panel I wanted to move a particular section of the BMP, to make it as a real time scenario,is it possible?
or with a second option in hand, importing each BMP of a cabinet piece by piece and making it to move on screen?
if it is possible to move each bmp on screen how can I do that?

which one would be the best option that I can opt for?

thanks again

I think the second option is the easiest, since you can recompose the final image from the different pieces, disposed where you want. Use an image editing software to remove unwanted parts of the pict that will be moved. Try it !

Hi CC,
I didn't get your suggestion exactly.
1.which is the software that you have suggested to edit the BMP?
2.is it possible to load different forms of cabinet by this procedure?
3.is their any option in labview to edit or remove the unwanted picture?
4.examples regarding my problem would be of great help!!!!!

You can use Photoshop or any other image editing software to optimize your image fragments.
If you give me your mail adress, I'll send you an example (I can't post attachments of more than 26 ko...)
