CS3 Eraser tool: Did you mean it, Mordy?
In Real World (p. 114), Mordy says that dragging the new, funky Eraser across a portion of a stroked path or a brush stroked path will require the re-application of the stroke (or brush stroke) to the surviving segments.
I infer from this that the Eraser (like some pathfinders and Live Paint) will remove multiple strokes, brush strokes, and maybe other effects from the path.
I draw a few open paths, apply an Effect to one, a second and third stroke to another, a brush to a third. I "cut" across each path with the Eraser tool. My resulting paths are retaining the various stroke effects after they've been chopped up by the Eraser. No need to re-apply.
What am I missing?
Mordy's text is probably accurate, I wasn't there to be able to judge, a consumer as yourself.
It is just that things were updated after.
it is like an OS being updated and then one of your applications ha a problem with the way it functions, the code is written the application is released according to specs and there is no bug then the OS developer finds it has to revise the OS because it found an overlooked security breach potential. Now everything is correct and according to specs and there is no bug, except there is a bug. You now do not have to correct an error but you have to instead write a new code for that lost feature.
This is hard to understand for a lot of users, they think it is simply a matter of accuracy or poor implementation or laziness etc. but it is just a matter of logistics, the order in which things work out. It i always a give and take situation.
It is not current as opposed to inaccurate.
Of course if Mordy chimes in and says he was in accurate and made a mistake, then in the Holiday Spirit we can let him have it, but good!

SharePoint 2010 Search "Did You Mean" | How does it work?
My customer has raised a concern that "Did you mean" functionality works inconsistently and issue is explained as below:
1. When I search for misspelled word such as "Maketting" , search page displays the option "Did you mean ""Marketting"?
2. When I search for another misspelled word "Marktng", I get no result and no "Did you mean" option.
I believe there is a dictionary which maintains the mapping between misspelled word and the correct words but I was unable to track the location whether it is in database or a file system. Has anyone faced this issue and know the solution? Below article
talks about a "Dictionary lexicon" but not sure about the location in SharePoint 2010 farm.

DBHi Deepak,
“Do you mean” functionality is enabled by selecting Query Suggestions in Search Box web part.
Suggestions are automatically built based on what search results are actually clicked on. It takes 6 clicks within a year for SharePoint to add a suggestion.
However, if an administrator needs to add a suggestion manually this can be done using the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell (PowerShell).
I recommend to use PowerShell to check all the suggestions in the Search Service Application, and then remove the one that you do not need.
$ssa=Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
Get-SPEnterpriseSearchQuerySuggestionCandidates -SearchApp $ssa
Remove a suggestion, such as “Marketting”:
$ssa=Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
Remove-SPEnterpriseSearchLanguageResourcePhrase -SearchApplication $ssa -Language En-Us -Type QuerySuggestionAlwaysSuggest -Identity "
Marketting "
More references about the query suggestion:

Did you mean: I need the toolbar mine disappeared I want to try to reinstall it hope i don't lose my passwords and bookmarks
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; InfoPath.2; AskTB5.6)In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.

I've been having trouble due, apparently, to a file named popuptransparent[dot]xul, of which I have 3 instances on my computer (running Win XP/Firefox latest v.). Using my AVG home-page window, I search for "popuptransparent" (to try to fix it) and the results appear OK. But then when I click, for a new tab, on the link "popup transparent" in the query, "Did you mean: popup transparent", NO RESULTS appear in that new tab. Further, when I then reload the AVG panel that searched for "popuptransparent" in the first place, it, too, now shows no results. Nor does a Google panel now show any results. They show the quantity of results but just white screens for the results themselves.
The links https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/948804?esab=a&as=aaq and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/952141?esab=a&as=aaq don't help me. I have re-installed Firefox v. 20.0.1 to no avail. How to fix it?
Should I delete from my computer all 3 of those [dot]xul instances?Thanks to jscher! With some help from AVG my AVG & Google browser panels now work OK. But I've taken the advice & disabled several extensions including the Disconnect. The browsers are still OK after re-launching them so I keep fingers crossed.
My original problem was that I had suddenly found a small popup window appearing, over the browser window, that I couldn't get rid of. It contained an advisory to the effect that Windows couldn't find the file popuptransparent[dot]xul. I tried searching for that to see what it was and in the course of doing that I seem to have executed it. Then was when the trouble started.
I have 3 instances of that file in my computer and would dearly like to get rid of them if they are of no use to me. Any advice there? -
Hello,
I'm trying to get search suggestions to the render "did you mean?" words in my cartridge SearchAdjustments of my web page, but the list that should have the search suggestions is always empty. However, the adjusted terms that apparently works in the same way works fine. Somebody knows what's missing to get the suggested seaches?
Here's my render's code:
<dsp:page>
<dsp:importbean bean="/atg/endeca/assembler/cartridge/manager/DefaultActionPathProvider" />
<dsp:getvalueof var="actionPath" bean="DefaultActionPathProvider.defaultExperienceManagerNavigationActionPath" />
<dsp:getvalueof var="contentItem" vartype="com.endeca.infront.assembler.ContentItem" value="${originatingRequest.contentItem}" />
<c:if test="${not empty contentItem.originalTerms}">
<div class="SearchAdjustmens">
<div>
<c:forEach var="originalTerm" items="${contentItem.originalTerms}" varStatus="status">
<c:if test="${not empty contentItem.adjustedSearches[originalTerm]}">
Sua pesquisa por <span style="font-weight: bold;">${originalTerm}</span> foi corrigida para
<c:forEach var="adjustment" items="${contentItem.adjustedSearches[originalTerm]}" varStatus="status">
<span class="autoCorrect">${adjustment.adjustedTerms}</span>
<c:if test="${!status.last}">, </c:if>
</c:forEach>
</c:if>
<c:if test="${not empty contentItem.suggestedSearches[originalTerm]}">
Você quis dizer
<c:forEach var="suggestion" items="${contentItem.suggestedSearches[originalTerm]}" varStatus="status">
<c:set var="label">
${suggestion.label}
<c:if test="${not empty suggestion.count}">
(${suggestion.count} resultados)
</c:if>
</c:set>
<a href="<c:out value="${suggestion.navigationSite}" />">${suggestion.label}</a>?
</c:forEach>
<br/>
</c:if>
</c:forEach>
</div>
</div>
</c:if>
</dsp:page>
PS: contentItem.adjustedSearches works fine, but contentItem.suggestedSearches is always empty no matter how term I put on the search box.Eu solved the problem!
It was missing configure a SearchAdjustmentsConfig with setSpellSuggestionEnabled(true) and setPhraseSuggestionEnabled(true)
In my case I created a property root/config/atg/endeca/assembler/cartridge/handler/config/SearchAdjustmentsConfig.properties with the following content:
$class=com.endeca.infront.cartridge.SearchAdjustmentsConfig
phraseSuggestionEnabled=true
spellSuggestionEnabled=true
Now the MDEX is populating the contentItem.suggestedSearches. The contentItem.adjustedSearches was already working fine because it's all setting automatically.
Thanks anyway! -
How to get Did you mean feature visible - WP configuration done
I have SP 2010 Entpr. Search and a results page with Search Summary WP with "Show Messages" option on. I have suggestions in index like "sharepoint".
If I spell wrong for example "sharepint", I don't get Did you mean option. So, how can I test this feature because I don't know what is possible? What words / terms I should test?
I don't have FAST Search.Search Suggestions:
On your search page, make sure that they are enabled in your
Search Box web part - "Edit Web Part" and there is a checkbox in the Query Suggestions section. This checkbox should be checked by default.
Read
http://blogs.technet.com/b/chad/archive/2010/06/24/tip-34-adding-a-sharepoint-2010-search-suggestion.aspx. This page provides insight into how the suggestions work and how to manually add suggestions using PowerShell.
Did you mean?:
On your search results page select "Edit Web Part" for the
Search Summary web part. In the Miscellaneous section, check the "Show Messages" checkbox. This will enable the display of the "Did you Mean?" messages. This checkbox is not checked by default.

i keep waiting for apple to ...
.. in the google toolbar (i use windows at work), if you type "harry pooter" by mistake (for example), google asks you "did you mean: harry potter" and if you did and you click on the new search value, it updates the toolbar, replacing "pooter" with "potter," (for example), so the next time you search from the toolbar, it looks for "potter".
i keep waiting for apple to build that correction feature into safari. it's VERY handy, especially for a sloppy typist like me.

"Did you mean" suggests same keyword
When I search for "test" and then refine by result type "Web Page" - it asks did I mean the same "test" keyword? A click on suggestion doesn't change anything.
Does anyone have an idea of possible reasons for such behavior?Hi Alexey,
Query Spelling Correction:
This function is hosted in the Termstore. We can now easy configure “Exclusion” and “Inclusion” Terms. Another big benefit is, that Terms configured in the “Inclusion” Termset also used for “Did you mean”
functionality.
So this example showing in the Pic would result in searching for
”EI” and didn’t get any results the system will suggest “Did you mean
ExpertsInside”
Thanks,

Hello: I like to use the eraser tool in illustrator to approximate a wood-cut or lino-cut effect and find that the rotation function for "nib" angle doesn't seem to work. For example, I double click on the eraser tool and bring up the dialogue. I set the angle to "rotation" using the pen tool. Then, when I use the pen and try to rotate, it doesn't. Is this not an really an option in CS3, are they just teasing me? Thanks for your help,
HeidiYes, I've entered several different variables. I figured that 180 would give me the greatest range, but I've tried them all and neither the cursor nor the actual path varies with pen rotation. It might just be that the option is not available, even though it is listed as a choice in the dialogue box. Thank you so much for responding, btw.

What did you mean by informing me of vinning a sum of money
I got an information some days ago that I have won some money as I was registred as user number ..... I called you but the person who answered wanted me to have a long dialoge whith her in US - on my expence. ????
What do you mean by that????
Is it all a joke???

Providing users with 'did you mean to type' spellcheck ....
I had a request come in to allow the end user to type in a value - and my program would search a particular field and tell the user if that value existed or did not exist. fine. they also want to know if there's anyting "similar". so, sure, i can do: field = user_input_variable or field like %user_input_variable% - but is there any mechanism already out there - or what about a pl/sql package someone wrote and is sharing (?) that would catch records in a spellcheck fasion, where ... maybe if 3 or more consecutive characters matched - or two digits were transposed? they're not typing in words out of a dictionary, they're typing in values that are specific to us.
thanks in advance!Ron Mey-Ami wrote:
I agrere with Justin, the UTL_Match package sounds like the best choice (Though I personally haven't used it but rather used SOUNDEX since I am working with a prior oracle version)Just to clarify, you are comparing apples and oranges. SOUNDEX and UTL_MATCH are based on completely different methods and serve different purposes. Soundex lets compare words that are spelled differently, but sound alike in a specific language+*. UTL_MATCH.EDIT_DISTANCE simply gives you number of characters that are different between two strings. Therefore, SOUNDEX is NLS dependent while UTL_MATCH is not. SOUNDEX that comes with Oracle is for English language only. Based on nick ukraine.believe, OP would have to find Ukrainian SOUNDEX for Oracle (assuming such is available). Another major difference is UTL_MATCH.EDIT_DISTANCE provides a way to measure how different words are while SOUNDEX simply tells if words sound alike - it does not provide any way to measure how different words sound. Anyway, below is an example:
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'espresso') DIST,
2 SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3 SOUNDEX('espresso')
4 FROM dual
5 /
DIST SOUN SOUN
1 E216 E216
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'e1presso') DIST,
2 SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3 SOUNDEX('e1presso')
4 FROM dual
5 /
DIST SOUN SOUN
1 E216 E162
SQL> As you can see, UTL_MATCH gave us same smallest possible (except exact match) distance in both cases since it olny takes one change to transform first word into second word. SOUNDEX results in second case show words do not sound alike. Below is an opposite example:
SQL> SELECT utl_match.edit_distance('expresso', 'eakspreasaah') DIST,
2 SOUNDEX('expresso'),
3 SOUNDEX('eakspreasaah')
4 FROM dual

DIST SOUN SOUN

I am working on smoothing the edges of a graphic. I know how to pick my eraser tool, the hardness, opacity, etc. So.....
I'm cleaning up this graphic nicely and I save the file. I open it up later and the edges that I have already smoothed are all jagged now. Also, as I continue to erase, the tool is still jagged. It is a brush tool at 100% opacity and hardness, etc. It is the same tool and setting that was working beautifully before I saved the project.
I have an image of the jagged (pixelated) graphic attached (I hope the jaggedness is visible in pic).... Remember, it wasn't jagged when I was working on it before.
What do you think happened?
Thank you!Ok I haveinvestigated this and the OP is correct and Doug is correct as well…WHAT?
Yes indeed they are both correct.
You can call it a bug and I think you would be correct and you can also say it is not a bug and probably be correct as well.
This is the thing this will occur as the OP describes but it depends on the size of the dash or should i say the expanded object.
Exactly at what size (length) this problem disappears I have not been able to determine but if you made the dash like 8 points you would surely be fine.
Make it less than a point and you definitely have a problem. The eraser tool can only be 1 point minimum and that might be the problem.
Draw ay small shape less than a point in length and use the eraser tool and you will see what I mean.
So this is not dash line specific but a tolerance limit be it expected or by design or a bug is probably how you choose to look at it.
So what does this effect have on the workings or Illustrator to Adobe this was probably acceptable and if no one complains about it or describes it in itss true sense Adobe will either not be able to reproduce it or will they correct it.
I don't see it as a bug as there are ways to accomplish and effect the same result in Illustrator I see it as a feature request to be able to effect smaller tolerance either with a new tool or with improvements to the current tool(s). In the case of a dash line it might be good o be able have an eraser tool that erased the path as an effect so that the dash did not reflow and the path seemed to be shortened. That would be a very handy tool since you would not need to expand the stroke and would have control over the length and size of the path.
But this type of eraser effect is probably not possible.
So if the Op and Scott see this as a bug I think they should mention the fact that his is a tolerance issue that needs to be addressed and they should come up with a good reason or two why it should be changed.

Deployment of OWB-ETL? How did you do it?
Hi folks,
I'm considering the deployment of a large set of Mappings in OWB that are part of the population of a Data Warehouse.
I see that the the Process Flow/Oracle Workflow is one suggestion for developing and deploying the framework for bringing these various Mappings under one logical unit.
However I'm begining to wonder if the investment in the skills and training and effort required to implement the process flows in Oracle Workflow are worth it.
I want to take a poll and also find out what people who implemented medium to large ETL using OWB have to say about this.
a) What tool did you use to logically bind together the various mappings in your Warehouse.
b) If you did create process flows, were you able to implement it with Oracle Workflow, and if so whats the stability of that system?
c) If you did indeed create a Process Flow, have you tried running or implemented that workflow (XPDL file) in any of the other commercially available or Open Source workflow engines out there? If so please detail your experience.
Thanks,
SridharI have done a nuance of this with one SFDC instance partitioned with multiple Record Types (a virtual new instance) The record type kept the contact from being visible to multiple business units and allowed for 'intentional' duplicates.
We had at one time 5 different BUs with possible contact overlap.
I have also implemented a single Eloqua instance with 2 BUs and 2 CRMs. The logic for lead flow was the big challenge. We turned off the native Activity write to the CRM systems and instead used the contact activity overview link. Though not ideal, it solved for a ton of failed API calls where the contact/lead ID did not exist in Eloqua.
Every situation is unique, there are no easy answers for this scenario.
I am happy to get on the phone with you to talk more.
