standalone application questions

[Biomedical Signal Processing]

Hi,

Question 1:
I have a data acquisition application using Labview. Four analog channels are recorded on HDD and displayed on waveform chart continuously.

Development application runs fine but standalone application on DELL laptop has problems: waveform does not show proper Grids; sometimes vertical and horizontal grid lines are broken. There is no problem recording data but only problem is displaying waveform.

The same standalone application used to run without any problem but after some minor modification, it behaves strange.

Any suggestions to fix the waveform display problems will be greatly appreciated.

Question 2:
�VI Property > Customize Windows Appearance > Show abort button� unchecked will disappear ABORT
button from VI. .After standalone application compilation and installation, the ABORT button was visible. How hide the ABORT button on the standalone application.

Question 3:
Can I replace Labview default RUN button with custom button, I want to hide Labview default RUN button and want to make a separate RUN button. Can I access property node or local variable of that RUN button?

Thanks in advance,

Kishor

Are you using the maximum resolution that you can? Grid lines are generally only about a pixel wide.

I am not using maximum resolution.

1. The VI may have been corrupted after your minor changes. Do you have an old copy of the good code. You can also copy the block diagram of the bad VI to a new VI and build an executable from the new VI. Also do you see the same behavior with the classic waveform chart? What happens if you build a new LV executable with dummy information going to the chart?
2. The tests I ran showed that you can make the abort button invisible with the steps you mentioned. Do you think that you may have not saved your changes?
3. You cannot replace the run arrow. Atleast not from a nice integrated published solution sort of way. There are no properties for the run arrow.

About question 1.
I had some strange behaviour with charts and transparent backgrounds.
Perhaps it's something like this...

About question 2.
Perhaps you have made a build script that has the properties set. After
changing the VI, loading the build script might overwrite the VI settings.

About question 3.
You should modify the VI to wait for a button to be pressed (a while, 10 MS
wait, and a button). Let the VI start automatically (run when opened). This
has the same effect.

Regards,

Wiebe.
