Instantly Disappearing Collection Items?

Hi, I'm in Bridge CS5 on a Mac Pro running 10.6.4.
I built a collection of about 98 PSD, JPG and TIF images, which are located in many different folders across an external hard drive.
The collection name was the default, "New Collection." I renamed it, and suddenly noticed there were only 42 items in the collection! Approximately 50+ items just suddenly disappeared, so now I have to start again, because I won't be able to work out exactly what's missing! It appears the files were not deleted from their locations, they're just not in the collection anymore.
Any thoughts? Is there some shortcut to removing items from the collection that I might have hit accidentally? I know I didn't click the button that's actually MARKED "Remove From Collection," certainly not for 50+ items...
What happened here?
Thanks in advance for any ideas, I don't want to have to rebuild this collection more than once again...

Thanks in advance for any ideas, I don't want to have to rebuild this
collection more than once again...
Seems like a bug, tried it for testing and after having added several files
from different locations and drives and then renamed the original 'new
collection name to a custom one. After this it was indeed almost empty and
most of the before added did disappear from the collection.
No harm done for the originals but the collection was gone.
The trick seems to be to rename the collection right after the first added
files. They then stayed put and also after having added more files and then
again renamed the collection name (added something at the end) the files
stayed also.
You might want to do some testing your own and also you might want to file a
bug report for it (use the contact button at the top of the site), they
don't always respond but usual are very keen on receiving bug reports
PS
Be aware of a tricky shortcut. If you use the back space key for deleting
files from the collection this also delete the original files to the bin.
Always use the 'Remove from collection' button at the top of the content
window for this, this leaves the original untouched !!

Disappearing collection items

Hi there,
Could someone please explain what's going on here. I have a class named ScheduledCourse. It contains a collection of type Enroll. The Student class is the same. The Enroll class is an entity class (creates the ENROLL table) that serves as an intermediate join table between tables SCHEDULED_COURSES and STUDENTS. When I enroll a student I simply create an instance of type Enroll. Its constructor automatically adds the instance to the collections in ScheduledCourse and Student. When I run my test code for the first unit of work I load the collections. The println statements reveal the proper amounts. The instance of ScheduledCourse has three Enroll instances, while each of the Student instances have one.
So far, so good.
But wait, what's happening in the 2nd. unit of work? I use:
sc2 = em2.find(ScheduledCourse.class, index);
to bring the instance of ScheduledCourse back into the persistant context and use a println statement to have a look at the size of the collection of type Enroll. It's zero! This isn't good! Why is it zero?
See test code below:
//First unit of work
EntityManager em1 = emf.createEntityManager();
EntityTransaction tx1 = em1.getTransaction();
tx1.begin();
//Create a ScheduledCourse
ScheduledCourse sc1 = new ScheduledCourse(...);
em1.persist(sc1);
Long index = sc1.getId();
//Enroll several students into the course
//ScheduledCourse has a collection of type Enroll
//The following automatically adds these to the collections
//in ScheduledCourse and Student
Enroll enroll1 = new Enroll(company, admin1, student1, sc1);
em1.persist(enroll1);
Enroll enroll2 = new Enroll(company, admin1, student2, sc1);
em1.persist(enroll2);
Enroll enroll3 = new Enroll(company, admin1, student3, sc1);
em1.persist(enroll3);
System.out.println("Adding students to the collections in scheduled course and students...");
System.out.println("scheduled_course.getEnrolled().size(): " + scheduled_course.getEnrolled().size()); //reveals 3
System.out.println("enroll1.getStudent().getEnrolled().size(): " + enroll1.getStudent().getEnrolled().size());//reveals 1
System.out.println("enroll2.getStudent().getEnrolled().size(): " + enroll2.getStudent().getEnrolled().size());//reveals 1
System.out.println("enroll3.getStudent().getEnrolled().size(): " + enroll3.getStudent().getEnrolled().size());//reveals 1
tx1.commit();
em1.close();
//Perform 2nd Unit of work
EntityManager em2 = emf.createEntityManager();
EntityTransaction tx2 = em2.getTransaction();
tx2.begin();
ScheduledCourse sc2 = em2.find(ScheduledCourse.class, index);
System.out.println("Enroll collection size: " + sc2.getEnrolled().size()); //reveals 0 Zero
tx2.commit();
em2.close();
The following code reveals that the records got recorded in the ENROLL table:
List enrolled = em2.createQuery("select e from Enroll e").getResultList();
System.out.println(enrolled.size() + " students enrolled"); //reveals 3
That's fine, but the collection is showing zero. Did something happen to the collection when the instance of ScheduledCourse became detached from the persistent context? I don't get it...
Please advise,
Alan

Check two array collection items

hi guys
how to check two array collection items so that if any change
in any of the item i can update the datagrid
i already had refresh problem
any idea
karthik.k

If the AC is made [Bindable] and if it is being used as a
dataProvider for the DG changes to the AC should be reflected
automatically in the DG.
If you are trying to feed two AC into a DG and really want to
or need to do something manually, you can have a handler for the
collectionChange event and do the work there.
See FB3 help sys (or LiveDocs online) on
changeCollection.

Flash "Collection Item" metadata tag?

Hi!
While creating Flash components I am using metadata tags Inspectable and Collection. This two allow me to do everything I need, in most cases. But in Flash IDE using Component Definition panel you can define much more:
For me "Collection Item" support is much preferrable than [Inspectable(type="Object"...)], because white editing Collection I can specify enumerations and Booleans -- with Objects only text fields allowed. How can I specify it in my code? Is there any documentation about additional metadata tags supported in Flash IDE?

Where do you see the metadata tag injectors? That is not a documented Flex Metadata tag that I have heard of.
A lot of frameworks create their own and you should be able to use that in both Flex and Flash Pro [assuming an AS3 framework].
If you google on Custom AS3 Metadata in Flash Pro quite a few links come up. Here is one: http://patrickmowrer.com/2010/03/03/compiling-custom-as3-metadata-flash-professional

Downloaded files instantly disappear on completion

When I download files (regardless of type: pdf, jpg, exe, etc.) the download shows progress, the arrow turns green and indicates that the file completed, but there is no file. If I pick desktop as the location, it will show up there briefly, and then instantly disappear upon completion. Changing my download location (for example, download folder) has no effect. "Open containing folder" produces no action. Trying to open the file produces no action. Searching for the file by name gives no result, the file doesn't exist. (Kaspersky Internet Security 2014. OS = WinXP.)
Thanks.

Could you try this?
# In the [[Location bar autocomplete|Location bar]], type '''about:config''' and press '''Enter'''. The about:config "''This might void your warranty!''" warning page may appear.
# Click '''I'll be careful, I promise!''', to continue to the about:config page. A list of settings should appear
# Filter the list by typing in the search bar at the top. Type in ''scanWhenDone''. '''You should now find the "browser.download.scanWhenDone" preference'''.

Important: Item Disappears form Item Dashboard when used in Initiative

Hello All,
I have one urgent question. I am seeing one strange thing. When a PPM Item is created and lets say this Item has a role A with 'Write' access on it. When I log in as Role A, I can see the PPM Item on the Item Dashboard. But the strange thing is when an Initiative is created by Role B ( this Initiative has both 'Write' access for roles B and role A) and the above PPM Item is added. Then when I log in as Role A, I cant see the PPM item on Item Dashboard. To see the PPM Item as Role A, I have to go to Initiative first and then see added items and there I can see the above PPM Item but not directly from Item Dashboard. Can someone throw some light as why PPM item disappears from Item dashboard for Role A, even when Role A has write access on the PPM Item, after item is used in a initiative.
Thanks,
Sachin

Is there a way to set the ID of a collection item and not worry about fxx?

Hi Everyone, I am not certain if I am phrasing this properly, so bear with me.
I have a tabular form based on a collection.   There are a variety of items, textareas, select lovs, and radio groups in this tabular form. Some of the items have a set id which correspond to the collection field...so for example,
c010 has id='f10'+seq
c012 has id='f12'+seq
when any field is changed, a dynamic action is executed.
dynamic action: COLUMN CHANGE
event: CHANGE
selection type: JQUERY SELECTOR
jquery selector: input[name='f10'],input[name='f11'],input[name='f12'],.shark_info, .hms_info
true action1: set value, javascript expression, set P110_ID = this.triggeringElement.id AFFECTED ITEM P110_VALUE
true action2: execute pl/sql code
begin
null;
end;
page items to submit: P110_ID
true action3: set value, javascript expression, set P110_VALUE = this.triggeringElement.value AFFECTED ITEM P110_VALUE
true action4: set value: PL/SQL expression, set P110_SEQ = rtrim(substr(:P110_ID,5,4),'0')    AFFECTED ITEM: P110_SEQ
true action5: execute pl/sql code
declare
v_attr number;
begin
v_attr := TO_NUMBER (SUBSTR (:P110_id, 2, 2));
apex_collection.update_member_attribute
                   (p_collection_name      => 'SPECIES_COLLECTION',
                    p_seq                  => :P110_SEQ,
                    p_attr_number          => v_attr,
                    p_attr_value           => :P110_VALUE);
end;
page items to submit: P110_ID, P110_VALUE, P110_SEQ
true action6: refresh region
The value of v_attr is set to a substr of P110_ID....and p110_id is based on the ID of the item.
I have one item, a radio group called c024.   It is not called as an apex_item because the radio group (for whatever reason) would not work. Therefore, in order for c024 to correspond to attribute 24, I must make certain that there are 23 editable items appearing before it...or at least that is the only way to get it to work.
I am wondering if there is a way to assign the ID='f24'+seq manually in much the same way that I assigned the CSS class=.SHARK_INFO to this item.
any clues appreciated.
thanks,
Karen
ps. the query for the tabular form is: (and really, anything without an alias could be removed, but is there to ensure that c024 = f24. ugh. Is there a better way?

I'd like to be able to clear my form history, but not clear my search history.
I'm using Firefox 7.0.1, but it still seems to be a combined option.
Would it be possible to separate the two options in later versions?
I've found two extensions that might help, but it would be nice to simply have two separate options.

Mapping in BPM - set value of collection item

Hello,
is it possible to set value to exact item of collection in mapping step in netweaver BPM?
I need something like set(<collection_variable>,<item_index>,<item_value>) - so exact opposite of GET generic function, which gets specific item from collection.
Is it possible in NW BPM?

You dont have to apologize. I didnt meant that as offend.
I appreciate the possibility to discuss that topic with somebody, because discussion itself sometimes shows other perspective to the problem, which can lead to solution
Of course I wrote EJB function to solve that - but I cant believe that it isnt standard solution to that pretty common use case.
I think, that problem lays in very limited implementation of XPath into Netweaver BPM. I will bet my left hand, that in some future SP of BPM will SAP introduce something like this:
myCollection[1]/notificationId = notificationId
which is standard XPath way to do that

Disappearing Start Items

I have a Start Button problem with a Windows 7 SP-1 computer.
When I click Start / All Programs, the list of programs duly appears but when I then left-click on any folder in the resultant list (e.g. the "Microsoft Office" folder), although the folder correctly expands to show
the short-cuts contained (Excel, Word etc in this example), they only stay in view fleetingly. The whole thing disappears a split-second later, long before I can click on one of the short-cuts to run it.
Right-clicking on the same folder works fine. E.g., When I click Start / All Programs, right-click on the Microsoft Office folder and select "open", a Windows Explorer window correctly displays the contents of C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start
Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office. All of the Office shortcuts are there and I can double-click on them in the normal way.
The above problem only happens with folders. Items in the Start / All Programs list which are individual shortcuts (e.g. the shortcut to Internet Explorer) work just fine.

Hi,
Did the issue occur recently, if is, you can try run system restore to the point when it work normal.
Start>type system restore in the search box>choose system restore and follow the wizard to restore your computer.
If not, please first run Microsoft safety scanner to see if it is infected by virus.
http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
If it is not the issue, it is probably the issue that the related folders are hidden.
go to control panel>folder options>click view >check the box show hidden files.
go to c:\program data/microsoft/windows/start menu. if start menu folder is like clear. right click properties>general>uncheck hidden>ok.

[JS CS3] disappearing page items

Now this is strange: I've written a script that does some imposition of a an image on a single sheet (page) and puts some special printers marks along the side. Now there's (as far as i am aware of) one instance where all the page items get placed on the page, but when you save, close and reopen the document, half of them are gone!
When you drag the page items before saving they disappear right from under your cursor! I've tried putting a lot of save commands during the script, hoping that that would nail those items down, but with no luck.
Has anybody had a similar experience and found a solution?
Thanks,
james

Hi,
You should send your script then we could have a try on our side.

Disappearing Calendar Items

About 4 days ago all of the items in my iCloud Calendar started to disappear from my iPad and iPhone. I have been using iCloud as my master calendar for my PC, iPad, and iPhone since iCloud was introduced. Now all of a sudden things are starting to disappear from my calendar. If i enter an event into my iphone, it will show up for a little while and then disappear. It will never synch with my computer or iPad. Same goes if i put it in my Outlook, it will never get to my iphone or ipad and will just disappear totally from my computer. My calendars are all set to iCloud.
Please help!

Not sure if your issue is related to this, but Microsoft says in a couple of their documents that both the principle and the delegate must accept all meeting requests, for a specific meeting even if the item has already been accepted by one or the other. If one accepts, and the other deletes it from their inbox, the meeting will come off the calendar. We found this was one thing that would make accepted meetings vanish. One way to fix this is to ensure that only the principle or the delegate or notified of the meeting, not both. This becomes even more of a challenge when you have multiple instances of the Outlook inbox....iPhone, iPad, Outlook and delegate etc....all must be accepted.

Can't Find the fixed days supply in the collected items.

Dear All,
after running the collection process , i can't find the fixed days supply item attribute in the collected data (from the table MSC_SYSTEM_ITEMS).
Regards.
Ahmad.

Ensure that you have defined fixed_days_supply at the org-item level.
If you have, then check if the collection is working properly by making some other change to an item (such as description change and change of the fixed lot multiplier).
If those changes are not coming over, the problem may be with your Data collection. Can you run a full DC? Make sure that the snapshots have been refreshed properly.
Hope this helps,
Sandeep Gandhi

Create String from all Collection Items

Hi all, I've been using Project Siena for the last week and I'm having a lot of fun with it.
Right now, I'm having a problem creating a string comprised of all the rows of a particular collection.
I am trying to generate the string for an email body. So far I have a 1 column collection called EmailCollection. It consists of rows of text with the appropriate URL Encoded characters. I would like to be able to export all the rows of this
collection to a string, and then add this string into the Launch(mailto:) body variable.
Let me know if I'm not being clear with this, and thanks for any help in advance!
Elliot

Thanks for the reply, StonyArc. I actually used your original thread to get me started until I ran into problems with exporting the entire single column collection to a concatenated string. I found a way to get it working, though it's not an elegant solution
and it wont work if the number of rows in the collection changes.
I'll try to explain it here, and if anyone else can think of a better way, I'd like to try it :)
I needed to create an URL encoded string for my emails which consisted of the relevant pricing information from a Collection with 8 rows called NewPricingCollection.
Collect(EmailPricing, Substitute(Substitute(Substitute(Concatenate(NewPricingCollection!SetupItem,": ", NewPricingCollection!NewAmount, " ", NewPricingCollection!UnitType, "s ($", NewPricingCollection!TotalPrice, ")"), " ", "%20"), "$", "%24"), ":", "%3A"));
This created a single column collection with 8 rows which looked like this: SetupItem: 5 Units ($TotalPrice). I used the substitute function to replace the non-URL friendly characters with their encoded equivalents. I'm not sure if this is the best
practice use of the Substitute function by the way.
Once I had the Single Column Collection, I couldn't find a way to concatenate the contents of each row into a single string. I was able to use the Lookup function to retrieve the first row of the collection, but that was it. Note that I may be using the
lookup function incorrectly too :)
I ended up using Last and LastN Functions to retrieve the specified number of rows from the end of the collection. Then I used the Lookup function to retrieve the string from the first row of each retrieved collection, then concatenated it together as a
single string - along with the rest of the email body.
LookUp(EmailPricing, Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,7), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,6), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,5), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,4), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,3), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,2), Result in EmailPricing, Result) & "%0A" & LookUp(LastN(EmailPricing,1), Result in EmailPricing, Result)
This created a string that looked like this inside of an email body:
SetupItem1: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem2: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem3: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem4: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem5: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem6: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem7: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
SetupItem8: 5 Units ($TotalPrice)
As you can see it will only work correctly with a collection of 8 rows, so if the number of items changes, then I'll need to find a better solution.

Disappear sub-items Va01 Va02 va03

Hi,
i have the next problem. We have a item in sales order that explode (BOM) subitems.
Oue customer doesn`t want to see the subitems in sales overview or item overview. They only want to see in structure tab (and in gray status).
Some body can help me.
I don`t want to see sub-items in a sales order (it depends of the item category).
We proved with USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION, but we don`t know how to disappear all the subitems.
Thanks

hi,
thanks for the information.
But the problem is that i need BOM explode. But our customer doesn´t want to see the sub-items in the sales order items. But the problem is that there are sub-items with BOM again, so i have three levels in my sales order:
Level 1      Main item
Level 2          Sub-item
                    Main sub-item
Level 3                    SUb Sub items
They onlu need to see Main item and main sub-item. It depends of the category items.
