Hi.
I mentioned this briefly in the previous response. You might want to
try using the Horizontal Graduated Bar or the Horizontal Progress
Bar both in the third row of the numeric subpalette of the controls
palette. Since they are LabVIEW indicators, as opposed to activeX
controls for which you
Yes but suppose i have 2 separate For loops, and i want the progress
bar to keep track of the 1rst loop until half the progress bar, and
then keep track of the 2nd loop until 100% of the progress bar. The
problem is, i cannot connect 2 wires to the horizontal progress bar
indicator to be able to
hummm
You're using LV5.1. I can't remember if what I suggested would work
in that version. Hopefully it does.
I reasd the other posts where you mention that the progress may come
from seperate loops.
You can create a reference and a property node (write value) to pass
the value to the progress bar. This allows you to send values from
different locations to a single progress bar.
For instance.
Thank you Joe but I was already using the microsoft progress bar in
different loops by updating its value in its property node. It takes a
long time though for large iterations (it adds at least 14 seconds for
the loop time for 15000 iterations), not to mention that i'm using a
poor pentium II
Greetings, Naddad:
What's wrong with using one of the several available Labview
progress bars? That way you won't have to keep dipping into the
windows application, which should speed things up considerably.
(Besides, the Labview bars are a lot better looking than Windows bars,
