Controlling transition timing in multiple multistate objects

How can you control the timing of multiple multistate transitions in DPS? If you have two slideshows with a single button telling each to go to a particular state, the transitions go in sequence rather than simultaneously. Can you adjust the timing so each transitions at the same time and for the same duration?

At this time, you can't run two button actions simultaneously.

Controlling Post Order of Multiple View Objects

Hi ,
Here is the scenario:
I have a use case of "Creating an Abstract"
Steps:
step1 ) (Page 1) Author presents the details of the abstract (Details goes to 2 tables ABSTRACT & ABSTRACT_CONTENT tables). For the 2 tables i have 2 entities. I use a view here called CreateAbstractView from both the tables( here i control the post order of the entities ....code from jdeveloper 11g guide)
Step 2)(Page 2) Author presents details of Additional Authors. I use the view (*AdditionalAuthorDetailsView*) (Details goes to 2 tables AUTHOR & ABSTRACT). Here in the abstract table i have a parent key(parent abstract id) So all the additional authors has a record in Abstract table with parent_abstract_id from step1. ABSTRACT table also has a foreign key (author_id) .Here also i control the post order of the 2 entity object using the code from jdeveloper 11g guide.
I also have a link from CreateAbstractView to AdditionalAuthorDetailsView (abstract_id in Abstract table from CreateAbstractView to parent_abstract_id in Abstract table from AdditionalAuthorDetailsView )
If i have a commit on both the pages , i don't see a problem.
But i want to have a commit process at the end so that the user can review the information. So when i try to add a commit process at the end , i get a exception (Parent Key not found exception) which i came to understand that commit from AdditionalAuthorDetailsView is happening first which is trying to insert a record into ABSTRACT table and cannot find the parent_abstract_id.
How do i control the post order for multiple view objects in such scenarios?

Hi!
Please take a look at the dev guide. It comes down to controlling the posting order on entity level.

One pair of radio buttons to control multiple text objects - Designer 8.0

Greetings - a big thank you in advance for any assistance. I have often found answers to my problems on this forum, but have been unable to find an answer to the following.
The short of it - is it possible to make a pair of radio buttons control the visibility of multiple text objects with the same name(I have had success in manipulating only a single text object with one pair of buttons)?
The long of it - I am trying to make a form bilingual based on the value of a radio button group to control the visibility of the text object in the selected language. When the user selects the language they wish to see, all the text objects in the form switch to that language. I am working with a dynamic PDF.
I have succeeded to a very limited extent in manipulating one text object by overlaying text objects in both languages, setting one object to "invisible" as default, and controlling that text objects visibility with the following JavaScript in the click event of the radio button group:
----- form1.#subform[0].ENG_JPN::click: - (JavaScript, client) -------------------------------------
if (ENG_JPN.rawValue == 1)///1 equals the value of on
{English.presence = "visible";}
else
{English.presence = "invisible";}
if (ENG_JPN.rawValue == 2)///2 equals the value of on
{Japanese.presence = "visible";}
else
{Japanese.presence = "invisible";}
endif
The problem is I need to manipulate the visibility of all text objects with the same name on the form with a single radio button group. I have tried writing the code as one does for the sum of a repeating field, ie. English[*].presence etc. however I get a C++ error in preview.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated. I am truly stumped - thank you for your time.

To access objects with the same name you need to deal with occurance numbers. If your object is called TextField then the 1st occurance will be TextField[0], the second occurance will be TextField[1] etc.....
The issue is that the [] in javascript are interpretted as an array element so you have to use the syntax: xfa.reolveNode("string") to get to your object names. In your case you would use:
xfa.resolveNode("TextField[1]").presence = "visible"
This string syntax allows you to use a var to hold the index number and is very useful with for loops where you want to set large numbers of objects. So if the index was held in the var i then your syntax would be:
xfa.resolveNode("TextField[" + i + "]").presence = "visible"
If the objects are in a repeating subform then the occurance numbers are on the subform and not the object. You can always get the expression to use by app.alert(objectname.somExpression). This will return the expression that you need to create.
Make sense?

Best practice for linking fields from multiple entity objects

I am currently transitioning from PHP to ADF. I'm looking for the best practice for linking data from multiple entity objects.
Example:
EO 'REQUESTS' has fields: req_id, name, dt, his_stat_id, her_stat_id
EO 'STATUSES' has fields: stat_id, short_txt_descr
'REQUESTS' is linked to EO 'STATUSES' on: STATUSES.stat_id = REQUESTS.his_status_id
'REQUESTS' is also linked to EO 'STATUSES' on: STATUSES.stat_id = REQUESTS.her_status_id
REQUESTS.his_status_id is independent of REQUESTS.her_status_id
When I create a VO for REQUESTS, I want to display: REQUESTS.name, REQUESTS.dt, STATUSES.short_txt_descr (for his_stat_id), STATUS.short_txt_descr (for her_stat_id)
What is the best practice for accomplishing this? It appears I could do it a few different ways:
1. Create the REQUESTS VO with a LOV for his_stat_id and her_stat_id
2. Create the REQUESTS VO with the join to STATUSES performed within the query for the VO. This would require joining on the STATUSES EO twice (his_stat_id, her_stat_id)
3. I just started reading about View Links - would that somehow do what I'm looking for?
I also need to be able to update his_status_id and her_status_id through the by selecting a STATUSES.short_txt_descr from a dropdown.
Any suggestions on how to approach such a stupidly simple task?
Using jDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0 if that makes a difference in the solution.
Thanks ahead of time,
CJ

CJ,
I vote for solution 1 as it's just your use case. As you said you what to update the his_status_id and her_status_id through the by selecting a STATUSES.short_txt_descr by a drop down. This is exactly the LOV solution.
ViewLinks are used fro master detail navigation (which you don't do here) and Joining the data make it difficult to update (and you still need a LOV for the drop down box.

Creating Views on multiple entity-objects

Dear Forum,
Is it possible to make associations and lookups based on multiple entity-objects.
I made a custom view, say view1 based on two entity-objects, say entity1 and entity2.
I used some fields from entity1 and some from entity2. There's a 1 to 1 association between the index of entity1 and entity2.
Now I want to make a master-detail between entity1 and view1. I tried to make links and associations, but that didn't work.
Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Arjen

Arjen,
I am a bit confused by what it is you need. It appears you may have Entity Object and View Objects mixed up. Entity Objects are one-to-one with database tables. So, for every table one Entity Object, and the other way around. Associations are, pretty much, one-to-one with foreign keys on the database. So, if two tables have a foreign key between them, the two Entity Objects will have an Association between them. In that respect, Entity Objects and Associations are usually 'strictly defined' by the database model.
The layer of View Objects and View Links is where you 'get design control' in the Business Components arena. A View Object can be based on zero, one or more Entity Objects. Viewlink, defining 'Master-Detail' relationships between View Objects (and NOT Entity Objects!!) can but don't have to be based on Entity Associations (i.e. foreign keys), but can be based on any attribute in the 'Master' view to any attribute in the 'Detail' view.
In this respect, your statement that you want to "make a master-detail between entity1 and view1" makes no sense. It sounds like you need to create a View2, and then make a View Link between View1 and View2.
Kind regards,

How to share a bind variable across multiple view objects?

Hi, Can someone tell me if it's possible to share a bind variable among multiple view objects within an application module? My web page displays data from different VOs on different regions. But all data should be controlled by the same bind variable, which appears in all queries. How can I achieve this?
Please help.

Best to state your JDev version, and technology stack (eg. ADF BC) when posting.
I can think of 2 approaches.
1) Create a parent VO based on SELECT :bindVar FROM dual, then create links between your other VOs and the parent
2) Create a AM client interface method that programatically sets the bind variable in each VO.
Can you specify your use case? This one tends to come up when discussing effective from/to dated queries.

Multiple state objects

Hello indesigners.
I have a made a multiple state object,its working well in swf,but its not responding to adobe interactive pdf,
i was just wandering since its a pdf interactive shouldnt it work?or are multiple state objects onyl for swf files.
thank you

Native Multistate objects work only in SWF. But you can select you MSO, export selection to SWF, replace original MSO with resulting SWF, set it play on page load from Media panel and after that export Interactive PDF. That way it should work.

Reorder Content with Multistate Objects

Hello all,
I am trying to create a document that can be reordered using the new multistate objects features. It will consist of a number of short blocks of text (with multiple paragraphs) that I would like the reader to be able to sort (i.e. alphabetically, by date, etc.).
Currently, the content flows across multiple pages using threaded text boxes.
My initial thought was to group all of the textboxes and treat the entire thing as a single object which I could apply multiple states to (each state would be a different ordering of the content).
However, I've found that I can not group textboxes that don't appear on the same spread.
Am I missing something simple here, or might there be a better way to go about this idea?
Many thanks,
Barry Wright, III

Thanks for the confirmation Eugene. I can definitely do a work around by working on each spread individually. Then I would have buttons available which could change the state of the object on all spreads simultaneous. A bit tedious, but do-able.
Still curious if anyone can think of a better way to go about the process though.

New technique to place multiple anchored objects in InDesign story

Hello,
For a while I have been trying to figure out how to insert multiple anchored objects into an Indesign story. As far as I can tell, you cannot copy multiple objects that have already been placed in a document (such as a multi-page pdf) into an InDesign story, but must copy and paste them one-by-one into the story. This is a problem for a project I am working on where I want to have a large number of 340x52 pt pdfs to flow throughout a document in a master text frame interspersed with text.
I have now found a solution for this issue that I thought I would share in case it would be helpful for anyone. It utilizes Automator actions for Mac OS X and Microsoft Word 2011 [2008 may work also, but I don't have a copy of that to test]; I am not good with scripting but perhaps similar solutions could be found for other systems and programs.
1. If you want to place a multipage pdf within a text frame, first it into individual files for each page (with Acrobat Pro or pdftk or something similiar).
2. Create an Automator service or program with the action "Create New Word Document". You can also use another automator action to save the document, or save it manually (to change the filename). In the finder, select the items you want, then run the service or drag them into the Automator program you have created.
3. Place the word document into your InDesign story. Your items will now be anchored objects ordered in your text frame as they were in the finder.
Please let me know if this is helpful or if anyone has suggestions for doing this process is a more efficient way. I am not sure, but it may be the case that this approach would only work on Macs, as I gather from this thread.

I might note that I am using InDesign CS 5, and importing from a document stored in docx format.

Not possible to store multiple fileReference object in same array?

Hi all,
I'm trying to store multiple fileReference object in one array. But everytime I push() in a new object the old objects that's already in the array gets set to the latest object.
I'm letting the user select an image. Then I push the selected fileReference object into an array like my_array.push( FileReference(event.target) );
If I then run a loop on "my_array" to check it's content I'm getting the latest pushed fileReference object for every index in the array.
With one object pushed in:
1. Image1.jpg
With two objects pushed in:
1. Image2.jpg
2. Image2.jpg
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thank you so much

This is basically what I'm doing. The code is cut out from a larger portion so there might be errors, but hopefully not.
// Local Files
private var localFiles:FileReference           = new FileReference();
private var fileList:Array                = new Array();
private function browse(event:MouseEvent)
     trace("[Browse] Using local files");
     localFiles.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, onLocalFilesSelected);
     localFiles.browse(getAllowedTypes());
* LOCAL FILE
private function onLocalFilesSelected(e:Event)
     localFiles.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, localFileHandler);
     localFiles.load();
private function localFileHandler(event:Event):void
     localFiles.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, localFileHandler);
     fileList.push(FileReference(event.target));
     showFileList();
private function showFileList():void
     for(var $x:int=0;$x<fileList.length;$x++)
          var file:FileReference = FileReference(fileList[$x]);
          trace($x+": " + file.name);
Thank you

Querying for a script insert multiple selected objects...

Is there a script or plugin which insert multiple selected objects in one new text frame with one click?
And is there a script or plugin which extract the content of anchored text frame out it's frame and replace it with it's frame. and extract selected text and insert it inside a new anchored text frame in it's place? (like convert text to table - convert table to text, but instead table we use text frame)

Hi,
Using OMB scripting to set attribute properties in a data mapping sort of defeats the purpose of utilizing a graphical user interface to define and set properties for a data mapping? Surely the GUI data mapping tool was created to get away from writing scripts and scripting would also require that you know the name of the data mapping, table operator and the set of attribute names for which you have to write one line of script to set each property value, i.e. 90 lines to set 90 attribute values.
Cheers,
Phil

RE: multiple named objects with the same name andinterface

David,
First I will start by saying that this can be done by using named anchored
objects and registering them yourself in the name service. There is
documentation on how to do this. And by default you will get most of the
behavior you desire. When you do a lookup in the name service (BindObject
method) it will first look in the local partition and see if there is a
local copy and give you that copy. By anchoring the object and manually
registering it in the name service you are programmatically creating your
own SO without defining it as such in the development environment. BTW in
response to your item number 1. This should be the case there as well. If
your "mobile" object is in the same partition where the service object he is
calling resides, you should get a handle to the local instance of the
service object.
Here is the catch, if you make a bind object call and there is no local copy
you will get a handle to a remote copy but you can not be sure which one!
It end ups as more or less a random selection. Off the top of my head and
without going to the doc, I am pretty sure that when you register an
anchored object you can not limit it's visibility to "User".

Subject: multiple named objects with the same name and interface
All,
More than once, I have wished that Forte allowed you to place named
objects with the same name in more than one partition. There are two
situations in which this seems desirable:
1) Objects that are not distributed, but are mobile (passed by value to
remote objects), cannot safely reference a Service Object unless it has
environment visibility, but this forces the overhead of a remote method
call when it might not otherwise be necessary. If it were possible to
place a copy of the same Service Object (with user visibility) in each
partition, the overhead of a remote method call could be avoided. This
would only be useful for a service object whose state could be safely
replicated.
2) My second scenario also involves mobile objects referencing a Service
Object, but this time I would like the behavior of the called Service
Object to differ with the partition from which it is called.
This could be accomplished by placing Service Objects with the same name
and the same interface in each partition, but varying the implementation
with the partition.
Does anyone have any thoughts about why this would be a good thing or a
bad thing?

Multiple resource objects provision issue in OIM10g

Hi Team,
We're facing an issue regarding multiple access policy trigger for a specific resource object in OIM.
The scenario is whenever we try to process the enablement or creation of users through flat file recon, users are created / enabled with multiple resource objects in their resource profiles.
When we checked in User Resource Access History report, we observe that the access policy has been triggering multiple times for these users resulting in users with multiple resource objects. Amongst these one shows provisioned/Enabled and the other shows provisioning/in some cases Provisioned/Enabled.
Please advise as this has become an ongoing issue and also has led into data mess-up.
Appreciate your help on this one..
Regards,
Sagar

The terminology sounds a little confusing to me:
If you mean you wanna create multiple IT Resources for a single IT Resource Instance so that the user can select the appropriate IT Resource during request creation -> All good upto here. But then since the Object/Request Form attached to a resource would be the same, so any user would always see the same form fields for creationg request.
Example: Users creating request for Oracle Database Accounts but different server locations
If it means you just need to create multiple Resource Objects then its a straighaway standard requirement and could be handled with normal Connector Development methodology.
Example: Users creating requests for different resources like Oracle Database Accounts & Active Directory Accounts

How do i open my multiple smart objects in my psd in one illustrator vector file?

HELLO
I have created a psd.
It contains multiple smart objects which when double clicked link you to illustrator.
I would like to open all the vector images from this file in one illustrator file.
Is this possible?

I guess it might be (almost) possible with Scripting in principle but probably not practically.
To elaborate:
One could open all the Smart Objects with a Script and with BridgeTalk it should be possible to have Illustrator perform tasks on those.
But one can not, as far as I know, directly access scale, rotation, skew of a placed Smart Object with a Script, so that information would have to be determined with work-arounds or (partially) neglected.
If you need vector output why did you make the arrangement in Photoshop?

Pan & Zoom image in Multistate object

Hi Guys,
I tried to create a multistate object with images that have a pan & zoom function, this works fine when I previewed this
in the contentviewer on the desktop. But when I previewed it on my iPad de images won't show, however the scrollbars for the
images are visible. Anybody an idea how to solve this problem?

I solved it!
You don't have to wait for the update of the iPad contenviewer!
