We recently found a bug where a math object appears underneath the Hiding column within an IMSG. The math object cannot be clicked and only appears if the user first selects the grey background and then the IMSG channel. If the user moves from a different channel to the IMSG the additional math object does not appear. I have deleted the IMSG entirely and then recreated it and the problem is replicated. If any of the object list components are removed then the issue does not happen. When simulating the program the issue is similar but the rogue math object only appears briefly before disappearing.

I want to know why this error is appearing, and how to fix it (ideally without having to change the contents of the IMSG channel).

Note: this issue appeared after the program was updated to version 6.06

I think I have a GUI bug in iQANdesign 6.06

The activating object "B" in this channel shows up also as a blocking object.

If I click anywhere in the blocking window it disappears but will reappear as soon as the channel is closed and reopened.

It will also disappear if the property inspector is resized or the center divider is moved.

If the channel is opened with the activating window too small the ghost duplicate will be cutoff at the same point

The duplicate channel does not exist in a text export:

Hello,

We use text buttons without text all over our systems.

We put transparent symbols in the buttons showing then what the button does.

In the latest update 6.06 you made the change: Automatic text on text button.

This put text all over all of the buttons in our programs.

Making all of our programs unusable.

We have migrated back to 6.05.19 but hope you will reconsider this change.

Regards,

Hello Everyone,

While making a HMI for our prototype machine using a MD4-5 I ran into an issue with the Symbol Button. The first image shows the display within IQANdesigns User Interface tab with the resulting output on the MD4-5 using IQANSimulate in the second image (with the black border). I also tried using the MD4-5 screen we have in house but the output is the same as the output while using IQANSimulate. I added two more images with some more information about the current configuration of the user interface and the configuration of one of the malfunctioning buttons.

I hope someone can show me what I am doing wrong or tell me if this is a bug with the Symbol Button and give me some suggestions for resolving the issue in a different way.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards.

I would like to see graphs in IQANdesign while i adjust variables to optimize my control loops.

Is there an easy way to do this? without jumping between IQANrun and IQANDesign?

i would believe this code would move BeltVelFlt from var0 to var4 but i doesn't. I am missing something

Suggestions

static var0 := 0

static var1 := 0

static var2 := 0

static var3 := 0

static var4 := 0

var4 := var3

var3 := var2

var2 := var1

var1 := var0

var0 := BeltVelFlt

Result := (var0- var4)/4/glLoopTime

i am writing a trajectory routine. i need smooth jerk, acceleration and velocity between two unknown locations. I monitor users requests. lots of articles refer to s-function. Is there anything like this here or any idea's.

My first thought was average function of size say 8. but looking for better

Thank you

When setting the colors in a gauge, I see the ability to change the needle colors and size but not for the labels. I believe I have all the options set to something other than white but still have white labels? Can the label colors in a gauge be changed? 

Hello Folks,

Has anyone had issues with receiving 11bit messages on a 29 bit generic bus (application is written in 5.03)?

I have 3 messages that I know are being broadcast (here is a capture from a separate sniffer I used to verify);

But all three of the GFINs are not reading... I have tried entering the identifier in both decimal and hexadecimal without success;

Any ideas on how to resolve would be greatly appreciated!

Hello! I am trying to get two generic CAN bus frames to link together in my project. One is inside of an external function group and is broadcasting a 2-byte message as a GFOUT channel. I have a CAN bus frame in channel (GFIN) inside the main project that is receiving that message and parsing it for a state machine. They share the same identifier, properties, bit offset, everything. However, whenever I simulate, the data is not shared between them. They are linked on the same Generic CAN bus module in the system diagram. Am I missing something?
