Editing scroll view frame size in IB causes table view to change

I suppose this is a continuation of the problems I was having with the table view resizing: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2618816&tstart=0.
I have a controller which needs to have a scroll view with numerous elements attached to it, including a table view.
I have performed the following steps:
- Set the simulated interface elements of the owning view to a nav bar.
- Added a scroll view to the main view in the nib file.
- Set the file owner view controller subclass' view to the scroll view.
- Set the contentSize of the scroll view to the desired size in viewDidLoad.
The problem is that the table view size/position are incorrect when I load the view in the iPhone simulator if I change the scroll view's frame size from 320x460. Basically, every time the scroll view frame size is changed, it causes the scroll view position and size to change.
However, there are times I want to make the scroll view's frame size bigger in order to edit items that might be offscreen when the application is first loaded, which becomes awkward if the size of the view in IB or in code without causing the table view size/position to change. I keep having to change the size of the scroll view frame, edit the items, change it back to 320x460, and then fix the table view.
Is there a way around this, such as a way to locking the size of a table?

Hi Kaspars,
I would say there is atm no possibility to change the table view size dynamicly, because you can't input a formula into the size field so the size is fixed as you enter it.
Best Regards,
Marcel

Text Problem - 'Editing or Rendering the text layer will cause the layout to change'

Hello all,
The problem I'm having is that when I try to edit a text layer, the layout of the layer changes completely - I have a grey warning triangle in the affected layer thumbnail that states the following message when I hover over it :
'Font is present on system but requires a layout change'
When I double click to edit the text layer, the following warning dialog pops up:
'Editing or Rendering the text layer will cause the layout to change'
I'm forced to click 'okay' to proceed which is when the layout of the text layer changes completely! Obviously this has massive implications for branding and page consitency!!
Now even if I have to do this the long way round, which means rebuilding each individual text layer for every single document, there is another problem, it appears that after I click 'OK' photoshop distorts the text! This means that I can't increase or decrease the font size to match it up! Same font, Same height, same AA, same weight, different circle radius!
Any help is massively appreciated,
I'm using CS5 64bit Cloud edition on Windows 7, I've already tried updating and reinstalling Photoshop but it doesnt remedy the problem, I've reinstalled a sample batch of the fonts affected and deleted any plugins
GULP!

That warning is pretty clear - you don't appear to have the font on your system. Not sure what otehr answer you are looking for. The layout changes beyond that could be indicative of a million things like the original source layers having been heavily customized with manual kerning, used a different version of a seemingly similar font, have been created with glyph substitution on a system with a different language and whatever... Unless you mean you created the files yourself just yesterday and the warning appears despite nothing have changed, everything works as intended. If you think something is up, you need to provide more info.

OBI crashing when creating a view on an analysis (initially created table view works fine)

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this. It seems pretty wierd because the initial view gets created.
This is what happens:
I create a new analysis. Data source doesn't matter. I have tried Sample App Lite & 2 different Essbase cubes.
Drop some columns on the criteria
Click Results. It displays a table view. I can save it and view it etc.
If I try to create a 2nd view of any type including another table the front-end will hang, displaying "Processing, please wait"
Logging onto the server we will see that there is a windows dialog box stating "nqssserver.exe has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution........"
It eventually times out. I think nqsserver.exe restarts by itself. The view doesn't get created.
OBI 11.1.1.7
Any ideas?
- Daniel

Hi Daniel,
We need to dive to much more granular level, to identify the cause for this kind of issue. Some analysis on the coredump (search for .dmp) produced by your windows OS using Windebug utility, running through console~obis1.log etc might have to be done to catch the culprit.
Note: I do not remember exactly, but there is are configuration steps available in my oracle support, to enable core dump on windows boxes (at least for Dr Watson though!!). You might want to have a look.
If you think there are any visible messages in the log, you could post here; I could help you read through them.

Importing PPT files in PAL sequence...can't adjust frame size

i've been working on DV PAL sequences with imported powerpoint
files. I'm very disapointed with the result (it bleeds and is pixelised) and noticed that the .jpeg frame sizes i imported are either 720 * 540 or 960*720 ( i tried converting through power point on 2 different Computers, one Mac, one PC).
I can't seem to change the frame size when converting the slides in PPT.
Could that be why the end result is so disapointing and does anybody know if adjusting the frame size is possible in PPT?
Thanks for your help.
Tee.

Thanks Kevin for your suggestions.
Good idea but i just have too many slides to import, and won't be needing to highlight them. They're mostly used in split screens, which makes the plain old PPT slides less boring.
I've read many posts, and do understand that PPT in FCP just doesn't yield satisfying results, but my results really bleeds, and i wanted to make sure i had all the settings working at my advantage.
As i stated earlier, I noticed my imported JPEGs were 720x540 while my sequence is PAL Anamorphic.
I finaly figured out how to change the PPT export settings that seemed to have constrained proportions on frame size, and blocked for NTSC settings. Changing the "page set up" i could then get 720 * 576 (or more of course).
I then Save as->Jpeg->no compression
But the result is still as bad, even with higher dpis.
The Grab solution also gives me the bleeding.
It of course looks a lot better on the TV i use as an external monitor, but end edit is to be viewed on computers.
That is probably what my question should be. How can i get the best possible results importing a 4:3 slide in an anamorphic sequence, destined for computer screen viewing...
Thanks for your time.

Trouble exporting non-standard frame size

So I have to deliver a Quicktime that's 210w x 190h that will eventually be compressed for web posting. The source footage is DV/NTSC (720x480). I cut my initial sequence at those specs and then nested that into a 210x190 sequence and resized the nest to fit, maintaining aspect ratio (i.e. sides were cropped). But whenever I export to QT, the frame size is stretched horizontally when viewed on a computer monitor. I've tried exporting that sequence "with current settings", set the sequence to square pixels, exported as Animation or "none", exported using Compressor with every conceivable combination....all to no avail. They all spit out the same problem.
Am I missing something?

Thanks Tom, you clarified it ....... or at least something clicked in my brain.
I was trying to set "Custom" when I created the new project.
I didn't know, or had forgotten, that in the "error" window I could select "Custom".
All is now well and FCP X 10.1.1 is pretty clever after all!
There is one weird thing I'd like to mention.
When I clicked on "Custom" the 960 x 600 frame dimensions appeared but the frame rate was listed as 23.98p as shown in the screenshot below.
So what's wrong with that?
Well the clip is 30p and I naturally thought I was going to end up with a project with an incorrect frame rate.
Now here's the funny thing ......... when I selected the project and viewed it in the Inspector it was the correct 30p
So why was I given that worrying piece of misinformation.

Do I need FC Pro for custom frame sizes?

I recently purchased Final Cut Express HD for editing computer based software training videos. These videos are captured using Snapz Pro X2 at 1024x768 and will be played back on a computer at the same size, or reduced to 800x600. They won't be output to tape or DVD.
I thought FCE HD would allow me to edit at 1024x768 resolution but I now it seems that isn't possible.
Am I correct that FCE HD won't let me edit at the frame sizes I specified? Do I need Final Cut Pro 5?
Thanks,

FCEHD will let you use QuickTime videos of different frame sizes, but it will only output in 720x480 (NTSC) or... whatever the PAL rez is.
Keep in mind that your maximum resolution for DVD output is (essentially) 640x480 anyway, in square pixels. So, even if you were to edit in 1024x768, you will need to downsample it in order to get it on DVD.
On other training videos, I've often seen them show the full screen for some parts, but then zoom in on the areas where they're doing action. That would definitely be possible in FCEHD. For the full screen shots, scale the computer screen image to fit in the frame. Then, when you need to show detail, cut the clip and scale it up to make it bigger, and center the action in the video frame.
Look at some training DVD's by places like Digital Tree or someplace like that to get some ideas on how to do that. Hope that makes sense.

Flash Frame Sizes in YouTube

Hello There,
I’m back in video after a decade long absence and I’m completely new to YouTube because I’ve been living on a continent that rarely even has Internet. I’ve got some old footage I need to put on YouTube, but YouTube’s specs are a bit contradictory at times.
Starting from the get go, I have several questions and I hope you can point me in the right direction. It sounds like an FLV file is what I should go for, so I’ll base my questions on that. Don’t hesitate to answer between the lines. And don’t hesitate to tell me to change tracks.
The most clear export I can make from my old Avid editing program is an uncompressed QuickTime movie. I can’t find anything in the YouTube specs about QuickTime moives. They don’t say they’re good. They don’t say they’re bad. Can I convert to an FLV file and upload to YouTube with good results?
When I export non-HD material from my editing program, what frame size do I export?
When I convert to an FLV file, what size do I re-size to? Or does YouTube resize whatever I send to them to the right size?
When I convert to an FLV file, what’s a reasonable bitrate for video? How about audio?
Or do I even need to bother with the above? In one YouTube information sheet, it sounded like I could just upload a plain old MPEG2 file and YouTube would go from there. Correct or not?
What’s the benefit of an alpha channel? It seems like the files get smaller, but I can’t get them to play at all after I’ve ticked alpha.
If anyone needs the information, I’m using Avid Xpress Pro 4.3 and have access to both AVS and TMPG 3 for MPEG conversion. My computer has plenty of horsepower.
And I'm using CS3 from Adobe.
Thanks beforehand for your help.

Hi There,
I'll mark as answered. Seems like we're on the right track.
I'll upload a small video as a test. But I feel a little bit guilty about that, since I'd be taking up YouTube computer space for something that's essentially worthless.
Is there any way to test a video on YouTube before a final submission?
Thanks again for your help.

Table View in View-based Application

Hi.
I want to use an UITableView in a View-based Application.
All examples I found are for Navigation-based Applications.
I Found only one example for View-based Applications, but it create all components himself without the Interface-Builder.
I search an example with Interface-Builder.
My main problem is, when i create a view with Interface-Builder, the controller class does not inherit from UITableViewController.

GrinderFX wrote:
I want to use an UITableView in a View-based Application.
Hi, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
Firstly, I would point out that you don't need to use UITableViewController to control a table view. The table view controller is just more convenient. So for example, you could simply drag a table view from the library in IB and drop it onto your view. Then you could hook up the table view's dataSource and delegate outlets to the File's Owner. Then you would add the data source and delegate protocols to the @interface of your UIViewController subclass and add the required data source and delegate methods to the @implementation.
I mention the above because building your table view that way is very instructive. If you want to learn more about table views in general I would recommend Chapter 8 of +Beginning iPhone Development: Exploring the iPhone SDK by Mark and LaMarche+, which includes 3 table view projects that don't involve a navigation controller.
My main problem is, when i create a view with Interface-Builder, the controller class does not inherit from UITableViewController.
Returning to your specific question, IB allows you to change the class of an object. Here are the steps to use the View-Based Application template as you described (In the following I'm using Grinder as the name of the project; e.g. the app delegate class is named GrinderAppDelegate, and the view controller subclass is named GrinderViewController):
1) _Change parent of view controller subclass in your code_
In GrinderViewController.h, you only need to change the superclass from UIViewController to UITableViewController:
@interface GrinderViewController : UITableViewController {
However it will be easier later on if you make new files from the UITableViewController file template:
a) Ctrl-click on GVC.h and GVC.m in the Groups & Files tree; select Delete->Also Move to Trash;
b) Ctrl-click on Classes; select Add->New File->iPhone OS->Cocoa Touch Classes;
c) Select UITableViewController subclass from the right center panel and click Next;
d) File Name: GrinderViewController.m; check Also create GrinderViewController.h;
e) Make sure the name for these new files is exactly the same as the ones you deleted; if you make a mistake here, delete the new files and start over, because that name must be the same in several other files;
f) Click Finish; the replacement files should now appear under Classes.
2) _Change the view controller class in IB_
a) Double click on MainWindow.xib under Resources in the Groups & Files tree;
b) Make sure the MainWindow.xib window is open by selecting Window->Document from the IB menu;
c) Locate the View Mode switch, upper-left, in the xib window, and select the Center position;
d) The xib window should now be displaying two columns with small icons on the left;
e) Select the Grinder View Controller icon;
f) Select Edit-Delete to delete that icon;
g) Select Tools->Library from the menu, and expand Controllers in the Library Panel;
h) Drag a Table View Controller to the xib window and drop it right under the app delegate icon;
i) Select Tools->Identity Inspector from the menu to open the Grinder View Controller Identity Panel (the new Table View Controller should still be selected in the xib window);
j) Under Class Identity, select Grinder View Controller from the list; tab out of the Class field to be sure the selection is recorded;
k) Ctrl-Click on Grinder App Delegate and connect the view controller outlet (ctrl-drag) to Grinder View Controller;
l) Expand GVC in the xib window and delete the Table View icon (since we want it in the other xib file);
m) Reselect the GVC icon and open the Grinder View Controller Attributes panel;
n) Under View Controller, select GrinderViewController from the NIB Name list;
o) In the Table View Controller IB Editor window, select GrinderViewController.nib to open the other xib file;
p) Make sure the GrinderViewController.xib window is open in small icon mode as in steps b-d above;
q) The class of the File's Owner should be GrinderViewController;
r) Delete the View icon;
s) Drag a Table View from the Library to where the View icon was;
t) Ctrl-click on File's Owner and connect (ctrl-drag) it's view outlet to the Table View;
u) Ctrl-click on Table View: connect both the dataSource and delegate outlets to File's Owner;
v) File->Save both xib files.
3) _Make some rows in the table view and test_
a) Open GrinderViewController.m in Xcode;
b) Add the commented lines (be sure to use the correct line for your target OS);
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section {
return 20; // <-- change to more than zero
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil) {
cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
// Configure the cell
// add this line for OS 2.x
cell.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Row %d", indexPath.row];
// add this line for OS 3.0
// cell.textLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"Row %d", indexPath.row];
return cell;
c) Build and Go.
I should add that the procedure might be a little easier if you start with the Window-Based Application Template. But the above is good practice in editing xib files.
Hope that's helpful!

Hide a column in one table view but show it in another

I need to hide a column in one tables view but show it in another table view in the same report. Is this possible?
Any help on this is appreciated.
Edited by: VNC on Jan 11, 2010 9:26 AM

Hi VNC,
If you're crafty with javascript, you could probably write a script that would set the CSS property DISPLAY to NONE to hide the column in the table view you didn't want but leave it there in the view you did want.

Multi layer table view/navigation controller hierarchy best practice

Hi,
I am new to iPad/iPhone development and wondering what the best practice for multiple layers of table views is? I understand the principle of a navigation controller providing the framework for moving up and down a list but have not yet quite got my head around if you should have one navigation controller for the whole tree or several navigation controllers.
In my app I need to have the following:
Main view -> window view showing some interactive elements (picker, buttons etc.)
Setup view -> Hierarchy managed by nav controller/table views
The setup view needs to manage the following hierarchy...
- Level A:
- Global app variables (one table view)
- Level B Items (table view showing list of items at belonging to Level B)
- Level B Item 1 (table view showing list of items at level C belonging to level B item 1)
- Level C Item 1 (table view showing list of items at level D belonging to level C item 1)
- Level D Item 1 (table view showing list of items at level E belonging to level D item 1)
- Level E item (table view for properties of item at Level E)
- Level D Item n
- Level C Item n
- Level B Item n
Each level in this has some properties and then a list of child items.
What would be the best way of structuring this? I would assume that creating a class that extends a view controller for each level is a given but what about the control of the navigation? Should this be handled by one navigation controller or one per level? I think I know the right answer but have not seen a neat way of implementing
I think I am also best off having each level in it's own xib but, once again, am not 100% sure that this is the best design pattern.
Many thanks in advance for any help/pointers!
Cheers

Hi Julian,
I have struggled with the same questions you are addressing. On a previous project we tried to model based on packages, but during the course of the project we encountered some problems that grew overtime. The main problems were:
1. It is hard to enforce rules on package assignments
2. With multiple developers on the project and limited time we didn't have time to review package assignment
3. Devopelers would click away warnings that an object was already part of another project and just continue
4. After go-live the maintenance partner didn't care.
So, my experience is is that it is a nice feature, but only from a high level design point of view. In real life it will get messy and above all, it doesn't add much value to the development. On my neew assignment we are just working with packages based on functional area and that works just fine.

JavaFX table view headers bug?

Hi,
I created simple application with table view and I have problem with the way that table view headers are displaying.
When table view is not focused headers are improper width but when table get focus then headers width is changing and everything is working as expected.

Using more then one table/view in same Report

Hi,
I am using Discoverer Plus Version 9.0.4.43.15.
Is it possible to use more then one table/view in a report without the tables/views being joined in any way? It would be like using two different datasets in the same report without the datasets having anything to do with one another. Right now when I select items from the available tab I can only pick tables that relate to one another in some way.
Or is it possible to use more the one table in the same report? Each table using a different query/view/table.
Thanks

Spence,
try following type of query using set operator UNION / UNION ALL:
select col1,col2
from t1
union all
select col1,col2
from t2
If you don't have restrictions then this is the best way.

New Quick Time frame size problem when viewing

Just upgraded to FCPv7 and am having weird issues with playing back video in the new QT player.
I have exported several different formats of the same 30s video(ProRes422, H264 etc) . When played back, the window /frame size of the QT window is way out. The file info shows the correct info, as a 320 x 180 frame size, but QT keeps displaying it as larger than this, with poor quality (like it has been enlarged). If i export exactly the same file as a 480 x 270, it plays perfectly. I know it must be wrong as the dimensions of the QT windows are the same for both!
I have further checked this by playing both videos in my macbook (prev version of QT), and both play at the correct size.
How can I get the new version of QT to play the 320 x 180 at "actual size"? as the option is greyed out if I click properties?
Thanks

Video with alpha channel causing frame size distortion

I have a lower-third which I built in AE. The content only occupies about 2/3 the width of the frame however I made sure I exported it at the full frame size as the rest of the video in my Premiere project. Also, I exported it as a quicktime movie with PNG settings to incl. the alpha channel.
When I import it into Premiere CS4, I drop it in on the Video 2 layer over Video 1 which is the main VT and in the preview, it all seems to be appearing as you'd expect. If I hit enter to start rendering, when it finishes I find that the lower third has been stretched the full width of the frame and additionally, Video 1 has been stretched too. I know there's an option in Preferences > General to default everything to the frame size of the sequence but having that tickbox on or off doesn't make any difference.
Does anyone have any ideas what's causing it?

Windows. Alas neither of those options worked. In the end, it was terribly convoluted but I had to export the footage from Premiere without a graphics, then import the video into After Effects and layer my comp over it - then export the final version from AE rather than Premiere. It seemed a very back-to-front way of doing things but if it works...

SoCal thanks for the attention,
sorry for having wrote the question directly in the subject, but first i wrote it by text edit then copied it, but in the wrong place too.....
coming to my question, timeline settings are:
as it is a commercial promo that must be projected in a multiplex cinema, the 2K format is needed.
I've heard about transcoding services, and they are very expensive.
so i'm looking if there is a way to do everything by fcp.
the project will be delivered as SD DVD for archive pourposes and as a single file for the projection or eventually transconding.
p.s.: sorry for my english, i'm from italy: had my last english lesson 35 years ago!
