Change display pattern at run time

I have a date/time field which has display pattern set as MM/DD/YYYY...
During run time, if user clicks on a check box...the display should change to DD/MMM/YYYY...How can i do that?

You can do this with a little bit of script on your check box's Click event (in FormCalc in this example):
if ($ == 1) then
DateTimeField1.format.picture = "DD/MMM/YYYY"
else
DateTimeField1.format.picture = "MM/DD/YYYY"
endif
The trick is to know that in XFA, what Designer refers to as the "Display" picture is the <format> node which contains a <picture> which, in turn, contains the "display" picture; or, the picture used to
format the field's value for display purposes.
I've attached a sample form which demonstrates this.

so, can any one help me?
thanks in advance,
Ola,

https://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=40323:81
When you select "Date" from select list and submit Field is changed to datepicker.
I did create select list P81_SELECT with static LOV
STATIC2:Text;T,Date;DNormal text item P81_FIELD and to page JavaScript Execute when Page Loads
if($v('P81_SELECT')=='D'){
$('#P81_FIELD').datepicker({showOn:'both',buttonImage:'#IMAGE_PREFIX#asfdcldr.gif',buttonImageOnly:true});

[CS4 Mac] Change PictureWidget image at running time.

Hello,
I have a PictureWidget on a panel - by default it displays a PNG file loaded from resources.
It can also display error icons when a query fails - etc: these icons are loaded from plugin's 'PICT' resources.
So far so good.
Now - when a query doesn't fail it would need to display an image stored as a 'PICT' file on a server: the query result is telling me which 'PICT' file is to be displayed in the PictureWidget.
For QXP I was using DrawPicture() to draw the PicHandle directly in the item rectangle.
Switching it to InDesign - I am looking for a recipe to achieve same result but following InDesign SDK means and spirit.
In other words - how do we change a PictureWidget image at running time in order to display a PICT files from server instead of built-in default PNG or 'PICT' resources.
Any pointer or direction to achieve this would be very much appreciated indeed.
Best regards
Patrick Perroud

How to change the skin at run time

I am using jDeveloper 11.1.1.3 for ADF.
My UseCase: i want to give a dropdown for skins. User should be able to select the skin at run time and it should be loaded. Please let me know how can i achieve it.
Zee

As per usecase, looks like you have the LOV containing the different skins.
You can ensure that the application is skinned according to the selected value in the LOV.
Ensure that you have a session scope variable that is set, whenever you change the LOV.
For more details, look into this link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/e10140/skinning.htm
Thanks for your reply, but then...... what will be the skin loaded by default before the user selects the skin - drop down. Do i have to set something default before hand .?Define the LOV such that there are no empty elements. i.e the first element in the LOV is selected.
In the Managed bean, if the session scope is not set, return the skin family for the first element. This would be the scenario when the application loads.
Thanks,
Navaneeth

How to display "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog?

I'm learning how to develop an IVI-C specific driver using LabWindows/CVI. When I run my function from its function panel and it returns an error, I would like to display a dialog with both the error code and error message (as opposed to simply returning an error code on the function panel). This would save the user from having to call Prefix_error_message() to translate the error code to its error message. NI-DCPower driver is a good example of this behavior (see attached error dialog). How do I show the "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Shawn,
Thank you for replying to my post. The checkErr is just an error handling macro defined in ivi.h to goto Error: tag when the function returns a non-zero value. I have been using the checkErr macro (as well as viCheckErr and other macros) in my driver.
Using the same hp34401a specific driver as an example, please allow me to explain my question in more details:
Let's take the hp34401a_close function as an example. It is a simple function with only a few lines of code:
When the hp34401a_close function is run from its front panel using an invalid session handle (e.g. "8" in this screen capture):
You will get three "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialogs, one from each of the IVI library functions that it calls: Ivi_LockSession, Ivi_UnlockSession, and Ivi_Dispose. However, there is no "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialog from the hp34401a_close itself.
My IVI-C specific driver is behaving identical to the hp34401a specific driver.
In comparison, if run niDCPower_close function from its front panel using an invalid session handle (using the same "8" in this screen capture):
You will only get one "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" from the niDCPower_close function itself:
I think the behavior of niDCPower driver is much better than the hp34401a driver. It replaces the three "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error" popup dialogs from the IVI library with a single "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" popup dialog from the driver function itself. I would like to do the same thing with my driver but have not figured out how to display a "Non-Fatal Run-Time Error In Function Panel" dialog. Thanks in advance for your help!

Change Windows Title in run-time

I can change windows title in File-->VI Properties--< Windows Title.
I wish You write in a string box change the windows title. How can i made it?
Thanks.

GerdW,
If you open a reference, and then, in a loop, change the title, there is no
problem.
But if you open a reference and change the title in a loop, you get problems
when you don't close the reference. This does not happen when you don't use
the Open VI Reference.
The attached VI will hopefully clear things up...
Regards,
Wiebe.

The browser is not displaying the forms run time

I am using "Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2 (Production)" and i have set mozilla as my default browser.I have downloaded jinitiator 1.3.1.22.But when i run my form it shows me blank applet with done,means it does not show me any output.Kindly help me.
Any kind of help will be appericiated.

Don't use Jinitiator, use Sun JRE.
Then, be sure that you have the correct Java version in your formsweb.cfg.
If you google for "oracle forms sun jre" you will find plenty of postings on how to set up the config file for IE and Mozilla.
A tip: if you are sure all the clients have the correct jre version (e.g. 1.6.*), skip the version altogether in the Mozilla section:
--jpi_mimetype=application/x-java-applet;jpi-version=1.4.2_06
jpi_mimetype=application/x-java-applet

Songs in iTunes display the wrong run time

I recently acquired a large amount of new music from my job, but there's a problem with some of the songs. Many of them appear to be much longer than they actually are. As in, the time that it shows for the song is higher than the actual length of the song. What happens when you try to play the song, is that it will play the song like normal, and when it gets to the end it will go to the next track. However, you can't pause or fast forward without jumping to another place in the song. Some albums have this flaw, but not others.
There are also a couple songs that are longer than iTunes says they are. These songs will continue to play even after it has supposedly reached the end.
http://www.popoa.byethost22.com/07%20Par...
that is a link to one of the songs with the flaw. the actual track is :45 but iTunes says it's 2:45.
Please help.

I've been having the exact same problem. I think its definitely a problem with iTunes since the files work perfectly on WMP. I found that I can fix my files by right clicking on them in iTunes and converting them to .mp3's. Kind of a hassle because you need to go delete the original files and reorganize otherwise you will have duplicates, but at least they'll have the right runtime.
Not ideal but a fix nonetheless.

Standard text must change its value in run time in english or in chinese

Hi all,
i have created the standard text in SO10. name is YTEST and inside i have declared &vbdpl-idnkd& since i need to get the value of this variable.
In script i have written
IL    ,,&VBDPL-POSNR+03(03)&,,&ZPRN_MTRL&,,
/:     INCLUDE YTEST OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE 'EN'
=     ,,&VBDPL-BSTNK&,,&VBDPL-LFIMG(I10.0)&
but the output is coming as &vbdpl-idnkd& only and not the value inside it.
1) how to retrieve it.
2) Also the value inside &vbdpl-idnkd& may come in English or sometimes in Chinese
3) the standard text when printing is getting printed in the next line and not on the same line with posnr, mtrl .....
Plz guide me how to process this.
thanks
Sakthi.

Hi,
Save the text in different languages in different SO10 objects .(Maybe with same name but dufferent LANGU Key).
Now while calling the text, give in the appropriate langu key...for eg:
/:     INCLUDE YTEST OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE 'EN'    -
> for English
/:     INCLUDE YTEST OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE 'ZH'   -
> For chinese
Hope this helps you.
Cheers,

 My Prompt of text items are changing its back ground colour according to the Text item's back colour during runtime. This doesn't look good.

Yes I agree with you, but in my case as this application supports bilingual (English & Arabic), I want to change the prompt of the text at run time. Can I change the text of boilerplate text at runtime?
