HT2477 how to make a snap shot of a selected text

Im trying make a snap shot of a selected text.

To take the picture of a part of the screen
Command (⌘)-Shift-4, and then drag the crosshair pointer to select the area. Continue to press the mouse button, release the keys, and then press Shift, Option, or the Space bar while you drag to resize the selection area. When you are ready to take a picture, release the mouse button.
Pictures of the screen (screenshots) are saved as files on the desktop, but if you prefer to put a screenshot in the Clipboard, hold down the Control key while you press the other keys. You can then paste the picture into a document.

plzz help...
How can i Change the Size of the selected text in JTextPane using ConboBox ???
i m using if(cb.getSelectedItem=="small")

if(cb.getSelectedItem=="large")
cb.setAction(new StyledEditorKit.FontSizeAction("double click", 16);)
this code is not working properly according to the action i set on comboBox.
when i select medium the previously set action on comboBox works like small action work.
when i select large the medium action starts .
means its not working in correct time when i select item of combox n action of that item is not working at that time..

How to save multiple snap shots in one file?

Hi,
I've been trying to take snap shots using a USB camera and save the
them into one file; however, I've had no luck with the saving part. Can
anybody help me with this problem? I've attached the code I'm using in
case anybody wants to take a look.
Thank You,

Camera Snap Shot1.vi ‏100 KB

Hi Molana,
If you are looking to save these images to file, you can use either the IMAQ Writefile VIs, or potentially the AVI writefile VIs. These VIs are both on the FIle I/O palette of the Vision Utilities subpalette. To write an AVI file, you <b>open</b>, write to, and then <b>close</b> a session, very similar to most processes in LabVIEW.
I also noticed in your code that you are enumerating your USB cameras and closing the camera session all within the while loop. This adds a great deal of overhead and time to your acquisition process. I would recommend moving these processes outside of the acquisition loop, such that they occur once before and once after the snaps.
If you are still having trouble acquiring, I would recommend that you download and install the NI IMAQ driver. It includes examples for snapping and saving images with NI IMAQ. This process is extremely similar to that which you would use in NI IMAQ for USB.
Hope this helps!

How to set the desired font to the selected text in textframe?

Hi,
I want to change the font(let's say Times New Roman) of selected text in textframe when I click on menu-item of my plug-in.
I went through the Adobe Text Engine documentation and tried some code for setting font but failed. I don't see any member function in IFont class to set desired font, so unable to move forward.
plz see the code. I would like to know one more thing that how can we set a particular font for a textframe?
TextRangesRef rangesRef = NULL;
result = sAIDocument->GetTextSelection(&rangesRef);
aisdk::check_ai_error(result);
ITextRanges ranges(rangesRef);
if (ranges.GetSize() > 0)
     ITextRange range = ranges.Item(0);
     ICharFeatures features = range.GetUniqueLocalCharFeatures();
     IFont font;                     // I don't see any method to put desired font.
   // features.SetFont();
Thanks.
D.A

First, get the font:
AIFontKey fontKey = 0;
AIErr error = sAIFont->FindFont("Times New Roman Regular", kAIAnyFontTechnology, kNativeAIScript, 0, &fontKey);
// do something with error
ATE::FontRef fontRef = 0;
error = sAIFont->FontFromFontKey(fontKey, &fontRef);
// do something with error
ATE::IFont font(fontRef);
Then, apply it like this:
ATE::TextRangeRef textRangeRef = 0;
AIErr error = sAITextFrame->GetATETextRange(handle_to_artwork, &textRangeRef);
// check error
ATE::ITextRange textRange(textRangeRef);
ATE::ICharFeatures charFeatures = textRange.GetUniqueLocalCharFeatures();
charFeatures.SetFont(font);
textRange.ReplaceOrAddLocalCharFeatures(charFeatures);
There are a few other ways to set the text, but you need to understand how character & paragraph styles interact with each other to understand the differneces. This is the most straight forward way to do it though.

How can I get the tab key to select text fields only?

Since upgrading to Firefox 4 on Windows, the tab key functions differently. How do I change it so that it only selects text input fields?

The answer is: The bug is in the UI. Speech recognition was enabled, by default it uses the bare escape key as a "mic on" indicator, and it does not leave any trace in the keybord configuration. So that is the bug. It needs to leave a trace there, a la: "X Listen-for-voice-command ^" under Mission Control.

How to create the request for change of selection text into other language.

Hi,
In my object requirement is that when login through Japanese language, then on selection screen selection text should appear in Japanese language. For that I have maintained the text in Japanese language the program where we define the selection text there from translation I have maintained the text in Japanese but while maintain the text it didn't ask me for REQUEST, because of that I am not able to transport the changes to next system, so I want know how to create the request for this case.
Thanks

Hello Chetan,
You could goto the selection screen texts by goto-> selection texts,
Then you could again goto -> Translation
or
Other-> Translation(Not sure )
Then double click on the Program you should be able to see the Texts that need translation, now change something save and come back and try to activate, now it should propose for a new Transport Request.
Either create a new transaport request or give one that you have given for the program.
Hope the issue is resolved.

FSCM Documented Credit Decision SnapShot - how to remove the Snap Shot linked object

Within the Documented Credit Decision linked objects there is the SnapShots for credit decisions section. I'm trying to remove this folder from the linked objects area. Also the linked objects folder titles are in German unlike all other areas of the case which are in English. Does anyone know where I need to make the adjustments to correct the language and remove the SnapShots from being displayed? Your insight is greatly appreciated.

Hello John,
1. T-Code : SCASE --> Select the second node "Records and case Record Models" you then get a drop sown --> for the Modelet in the case record in SAP Credit Management --> right click and choose find --> a new window opens --> direct execute (F8) --> Select DCD case Record --> on the right hand side you would be able to see 4 folders --> the second fodler is snapshot nod deactivate that. node and i think then you should be able to see SNAPSHOT in Object when i a normal DCD is created in linked Objects.
Also we have one more option that is the badi which is used for SNAPSHOTS.
You need to activate that badi in case if you do not want to use the SNAPSHOT functionality.
I repeat you need to activate the badi if you do not want to use the SANPSHOT fucntion .
SPRO--> Financial Supply Chain Management -->Credit Management --> Credit Risk Monitoring --> Documented Credit Decision --> Enhancements --> you would be able to see the 3 badi's you need to activate the second one.

Sai

How do I write snap shot of my data to measurement file every 5 seconds

Hi There
I'm trying take a snapshot of my data stream once every 5 seconds and write it to a .LVM file. I'm having trouble with the "Write to Measurement File" VI. The rate at which it writes data to the file appears to be dictated by the "Samples to Read" parameter in the DAQ assistant. I've tried placing the "Write to Measurement File" VI inside a case structure and initiating the case structure with an "Elapsed Time" VI. This only results in a 5 second delay before the "Write to Measurement File" VI initiates. Once the "Write to Measurement File" VI is initiated it begins writing at 20 x per second. Is there a way to change this or dictate the rate at which the "Write to Measurement File" VI exicutes?
My reason for slowing down the write rate are, 1) Reduce disk space taken up by my data file. 2) Reduce CPU usage and hard disk access cycles.
The reason I can't increase the "Samples to Read" value in the DAQ assitant (to match my data writing requirement) is that my VI will begin to miss events and triggers.
I'm sure I can't be the only person who needs high frequency data acquisition and low frequency writing of the processed data to disk? I can't however see a straight forward way of achiving this.
The hardware I am using is a NI USB 6008 DAQ, acquiring analogue voltage data at 100hz.
Thanks in advance for your help
Cheers
Kim
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The case structure and the elapsed time function should work. Did you configure it to reset when the time target is reached? You should get a single true and then the output will be false until the time has elapsed again. The write to file would not be running 20 times a second. Post your code if you still have problems.

How to make the Open/Save dialogue download the text file instead of JSP

I am currently coding on a JSP program, which searches the database and writes the resultset into a file on the server, and then allows the client to download this tab delimited text file onto their local machine. But I met a problem, when the default Open or Save dialogue appears, it shows that it's trying to download the running JSP file from my local host instead of the newly-created text file. Despite this, when I click OK to either Open or Save the file, a warning dialogue will appear saying: The explorer cann't download this file, it's unable to find this internet site or something like that. I get no error message from the server but I was always told that Javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was already called. What does this mean?
I guess maybe this is caused by the mix use of outputStreams in my program. I don't know if there is a way to directly read the resultset from the database and then send it through outputStream to the client. My solution is: first create a file on the server to hold the resultset, and then output this file to the client. I did all these in one JSP program: Create file on the server, search database, and then read file and output the contents to client. Is this correct? I attached my code, please feel free to correct any of my mistake? Thanks!

Thanks. I believe something wrong with this statement
in my program:
You are correct there is something wrong with this statement. Seeing how you are doing this in a jsp, not really what they're made for but thats another topic, the output stream has already been called. When a jsp gets compiled it creates a few implicit objects, one of them being the outputstream out, and it does this by calling the response.getWriter(). getWriter or getOutputStream can only be called once, other wise you will get the exception you are experiencing. This is for both methods as well, seeing how the jsp compiles and calls getWriter means that you cannot call getOutputStream. Calling one makes the other throw the exception if called as well. As far as the filename problem in the browser goes I'm guessing that it's in IE. I've had some problems before when I had to send files to the browser through a servlet and remember having to set an inline attribute of some sort in the content-dis header inorder to get IE to see the real filename. The best way to solve this is to get the orielly file package and use that. It is very easy to use and understand and does all of this for you already. Plus it's free. Cant beat that.
ServletOutputStream outs =
response.getOutputStream();
because I put a lot of printout statement within my
code, and the program stops to print out exactly
before the above statement. And then I get the
following message, which repeats several times:
ServletExec: caught exception -
javax.servlet.ServletException: getWriter() was
already called.

How to make a bit field (multiple bits selectable) structure?

I'm develping a program to communicate with an external device, and it has a specific protocol. Often times, I need to make structs/typedefs of specific type (u8/u16/u32) that have values defined by multiple selection. For example, the protocol asks for the following:
The field is a bit field structure (multiple bits can be set simultaneously) defined as follows:
typedef u_16 COMM_TYPES;
#define A 0x8000
#define B 0x4000
#define C 0x2000
#define D 0x1000
How would you recommend implementing this? I've tried looping through a listbox in combination with a text ring that has the name and value pairs, but its cumbersome doing for each unique typedef (see image below)

That's what I would do. Other than I might use OR instead of sum, but that shouldn't make a difference.
The other possibility would be to take the array of index values, to a 2^x where x the array of indices, then add that. This assumes that every index in the array matches bit for bit with the enum values. Nothing is missing, and array element 0 corresponds to bit 0. In your case, your order is reversed, but you can reverse the array. And all your values are in the highest nibble of the highest byte (hex ?000) So you'd have to do some bit shifting or multiplication to get the actual values.
But I think this would make your code that much more fragile. I would just do what you have shown.

How to make an a basic attack in my text based game

hey guys! i really need some genuine help on how to create an attack for my monsters and player. the attack should be basic: if the room contains a monster, then the monster attacks when the player goes inside the room. then the player can type a command to attack the monster. the attack should just deduct the hp of the monster. so the player can keep attacking till the monster is "dead"(this is where i remove the monster).
anyway i tried alot in creating the attack but i failed all the time, messing my code even more. please!!!!! help!!!
my monster class:
public class Monster
private int hp, stage;
private String name;
public Monster(String name, int stage)
this.name = name;
this.stage = stage;
if(stage == 1) {
hp = 1;
else if(stage == 2) {
hp = 2;
else if(stage == 3) {
hp = 2;
else if(stage == 4) {
hp = 3;
else if(stage == 5) {
hp = 4;
else if(stage == 6) {
hp = 6;
public int monsterStage()
return stage;
public String getName()
return name;
this is where i created the monsters in my main game class:
private Monster skeleton, sphinx, zombie, vampire, werewolf, undeadking;
setting the monster to a room:
skeleton = new Monster("skeleton1", 1);
skeleton = new Monster("skeleton2", 1);
sphinx = new Monster("sphinx1", 2);
sphinx = new Monster("sphinx2", 2);
sphinx = new Monster("sphinx3", 2);
zombie = new Monster("zombie", 3);
vampire = new Monster("vampire1", 4);
vampire = new Monster("vampire2", 4);
werewolf = new Monster("werewolf", 5);
undeadking = new Monster("undeadking", 6);
//setting the monster to a place
bridge.addMonster("skeleton1", skeleton);
castleDoor.addMonster("sphinx1", sphinx);
castleChest.addMonster("zombie", zombie);
dungeonDoor.addMonster("sphinx2", sphinx);
castleStair.addMonster("werewolf", werewolf);
dungeonBridge.addMonster("vampire2", vampire);
dungeonBook.addMonster("sphinx3", sphinx);
dungeonChest.addMonster("skeleton2", skeleton);
throneCenter.addMonster("undeadking", undeadking);
ps.: please help me! each room has one monster only and they are stored in hashmaps

How to make a good UI for channel selection using DAQmx

A lot of my Labview programming was with earlier verisons of labview (pre Labview 7), and there are a ton of new features that I'm trying to digest (currently using Labview 8.2).
My question is (in general terms), how are people programming their UI for selecting channels and such when using DAQmx hardware? What I have in mind is a compacDAQ system with a number of modules. The user would be able to pick and choose which channels to monitor. Using MAX as part of that process seems counter intuative, and somewhat static (yeah I know you can change it there, but it feels more like something you would use for something that really doesn't change much). I'd like all the UI to be within the VI.
Are programmers using the create task VIs for that or something else?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!

I wholeheartedly second the motion to keep MAX out of the picture as far as users are concerned.
Setting up UI's for channel selection is a breeze in DAQmx when you create channels on the block diagram. The control you create off the Channels input will populate itself with the inputs that it knows are capable of performing the desired task...
<<< My configuration knows that my Module 5 is capable of doing Analog Input.
So... Just create a panel that waits for the user to select the proper channel. I also run a quick check of the user's selection before creating / starting the task. For example, if they choose ai30 or higher, and I know that the system isn't wired for those inputs, I'll not allow that selection. Also check for using two of the same input, etc.

How to make a row enabled for lead selection and make other Rows disabled?

Hi,
What I require is:
In a webdynpro table , which can have multiple rows, I want to make the rows which are retrieved fom backend as disabled for selection.
And when I add a new row (using an ADD functionality) , this newly added row should only be enabled for lead selection.
The Table property "enabled" can be assigned a context , and can be used to control the disabling of whole table.But then if I add the new row to this table, even this will be disabled.
I can set lead selection to a the new row, but if the whole table is disabled, this won't work.
Please suggest a solution for this.
Thanks,
Richa

Do not set the enabled flag to the whole table but to the editors of each column. Bind the enabled property to a calculated boolean flag in the data source node. In the get method of this flag add a code that will make the editor enabled only if it belongs to the lead selection element.
Now do not allow the selection of rows in the table (there is a property for this, perhaps is named rows selection I don't remember well now), but change the lead selection of the data source node to the desired element when you add the element programatically.
Hope it helps.
