Path: Using measuredWidth (or similar)?

Hello all,
I'm using a spark.primitives.Path instance to create an "image" with a couple of nice curves etc in it (in this particular instance I'm skinning the ScrollBarUpButton). What I would like to do is use this path to create a background for the button, which is easy enough with skinning (loving it's flexibility) but I'm not sure how I can create the path using relative dimensions. The background should cover up to measuredWidth and measuredHeight - is this possible using Path? I can only find in the documentation that you can specify left and right coordinates, so I suspect not, but equally, I'm assuming that there might be a way of achieving what I am looking for that I'm not aware of.
I could of course do it in AS3 with a Sprite, but if possible, it would be create to use MXML as I find it somewhat easier for fills etc.
Many thanks,
Allan

I'm not sure if it will help in your use case, but you might want to play around with the resizeMode property on Group. For example:
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark">
    <s:Group width="100%" height="100%" resizeMode="scale">
        <s:Path data="M 0 0 L 20 20 L 0 20 Z">
            <s:fill>
                <s:SolidColor color="red" />
            </s:fill>
        </s:Path>
    </s:Group>
</s:Application>
Here I draw a Path with absolute values and and then set resizeMode="scale" on the Group to have the Group scale its content to its size.

Logical path using in abap program

hay,
I want to create file in application server directory.
so i want the user to select the Logical path and file name from screen.so that he can create the file and seved in selected logical path.{path used must be from Instance profile DIR_LOGGING,GLOBALPATH directory etc).
could you pls tell me how to do this using parameter for user input selecting FILE PATH.
Do we have Functional module for Retrieving physical path
from logical path?
could you pls help me..
ambichan.

hey,
Thanks for your reply.
Instead of using logical file name as input, can we allow the user to select logical path using parameter?
I want user to select Logical path or logical file name from parameter. is it possible?
(I want to avoid user to input insteal want to allow user to select the path)

How can I add to an existing path using the pencil tool?

This probably seems like a rather elementary question, but
whenever I draw a path using the pencil tool, reselect it,
hover over the endpoint, and the click and drag to extend
the line off into a different direction, Illustrator will often
(but not always) erase the existing path and leave only the
new one that I drew.
To wit:
In step 1 above, I draw a line with the Pencil tool.
In step 2 above, I reselect the line from step 1, hover over the endpoint, and then continue to draw further.
However, as can be seen in step 3, the line from step 1 disappears after I draw the new path.
I am aware of the pencil setting, "Edit selected paths", and I have checked it to edit selected paths
within 12 pixels for the above example. What I am doing in the above example, and what I
want to do, is to be able to add more paths onto an existing one using the pencil tool,
rather than have a completely new path being drawn every time I lift up my pen to finish
drawing the previous path.
I also realize that I can do this with the pen tool; but the pen tool is a more
precise tool (and somewhat more cumbersome), and I prefer to have more
of the rough-handed look from time to time.
Finally, I also know that I can use the direct selection tool to select endpoints
from two different paths and then join them using the join command;
but this seems to be more trouble than it's worth in many cases, especially
if I want to do it frequently for a more long and complicated line.
Am I expecting too much out of Illustrator?
Is my idea of how to use the existing tools wrong in this case?
Is there some piece of knowledge I'm missing?
I'm on Illustrator CS5, Mac OS X 10.6.8, using a Wacom Intuos4 tablet.
However, I have confirmed the above on Illustrator CS4 for Mac as well.
Any help or comments would be much appreciated.
Jeff

Thanks @rcraighead - the Live Paint process seems a bit overkill for simply adding
a new path onto an existing pencil path, but I did try the first idea you suggested,
which was tracing a bit over the last part of the existing path and then continuing
on to extend the path. It's a bit imprecise because the existing path gets slightly
modified, but it seems to work pretty well all in all. Nice idea indeed - thanks a million.
I also found that in AI CS5, I can use the selection tool to select all of the paths
in this case and then join them using the join command. I thought I needed to
select individual anchor points for this to work, but it actually works really
well, better than I thought. I seem to recall that previous versions of Illustrator
were a lot more picky with the Join command, but then again this might just
have been my lack of understanding.
I'm curious to know what other solutions to the above problem that other users
might have, so I will leave this question unanswered for a bit...
but I will use your initial technique described - it seems to work
pretty well, in absence of other options Many thanks again for your timely help.

How can I use Anquet or similar mountain mapping software on my iMac?

As a keen hillwalker I would like to be able to use Anquet or similar maps - at present I use well-worn OS 1:50,000 maps but would like to print out relevant maps for whatever hill I'm doing, and possibly also get into using a GPS.
According to the Anquet website their software doesn't work on Macs. I don't want to switch to PC but might have to. Any way round the problem without costing too much?

you could try looking at this-

I feel this xml output is not like the regular xml output. Do you know why it is diffrent from the regular xml xml output? Please comment on this matter.
Thanks,

What do you mean by regular xml document? Are you referring to fact that its missing a root element? if yes it can be added as below
USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT
p.NameStyle AS "processing-instruction(nameStyle)",
p.BusinessEntityID AS "Person/@ID",
p.ModifiedDate AS "comment()",
pp.PhoneNumber AS "text()",

INNER JOIN Person.EmailAddress e
ON p.BusinessEntityID = e.BusinessEntityID
INNER JOIN Person.PersonPhone pp
ON p.BusinessEntityID = pp.BusinessEntityID
FOR XML PATH('ElementName'),ROOT('RootName');
replace ElementName and RootName with whatever name you need to set for element as well as the root element

Setting $PATH using the terminal

Welcome to Apple Discussions!!
export PATH=/path/to/your/directory:$PATH
Note that you should supply the complete path to the directory you want to add.
To make this automatic for each time you start the Terminal, you need to arrange for it to appear in ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc. It's best to put it in the latter, since this is run for every Terminal window. ~/.bash_profile is only executed for the initial login window, but you can avoid duplication by having it source ~/.bashrc. Stripped to its essentials, my ~/.bash_profile is just
if [ -r ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc

Is there a way to exclude files from source paths using patterns

Hi
Does anyone know of any way to exclude files from source paths using patters rather than individually selecting the files? UI doesn't allow to specify any pattern. But if you look at the jpr file there are other places where patterns are allowed. Can the same pattern be copied and applied to excluded files?

Drag the files, or press Option when pasting them; this accesses the Move To function.

Help creating a path using variables.

HI
I;m trying to create a path to a movievclip created with
attachMovie. I need tio create the path using variable:
_root.var1.var2.gotoAndPlay("something");
How can I tell flash that var1, var2, etc are variables and
not a relative path?
Tks,

Hello Tks,
depending where the movieclip is that you are trying
communicate with you need to use either other movieclips or you
will need to use _parent.
var gong:MovieClip;
var bong:MovieClip;
var song:MovieClip;
this.attachMovie("gong".....
gong.attachMovie("bong"....
bong.attachMovie("song"...
to access song from the timeline in which all these movie
clips were attached
this.gong.bong.song.variable
from song to the timeline in which all movie clips were
attached
song._parent._parent._parent.variable
Hope this helps..

How to add a 'stoke path' using 'pen tool' on CS6 (mac)?

I'm a beginner at photoshop and I'm only 14 years old. I need to know this for my GCSE project.
I'm trying to create something similar to this:
Using pen tool and stroke path, but when i use the pen tool I'm not sure how to add the stroke path like that.
I've used CS4 previously at school and when you right clicked on the path it came up with this:
I haven't a clue how to get that up on CS6 (on mac) and when you right click it, it just seems to continue adding the path. Any help?

In addition to conroys advice here is a video tutorial that might help you as well:
enjoy,
janelle

When I have selected multiple paths using the pen tool, I can't make a selection out of them all, but only of the last one I created.

I want to make a selection with both paths in the selection. But it's only allowing me to select one, if I try both the paths just dissapear.

Similarly to what @JJMack said, if you use the direct selection tool (shortcut: A), you can either select all of the paths, or select a blank area of the canvas (which will deselect all paths) and then selecting the 'convert path to selection' button should convert them all simultaneously.
This is one of several bothersome changes to the path selection functionality in CC.

Command to determine path used to find tnsnames.ora

How can know (with command or similar) the path that uses Oracle client to find tnsnames.ora file?
We need a command because not always we have administrator permissions on a workstation to make a regedit or to see environment variables, but we have to determine causes of problem connections.
If I’m working with client on UNIX, ‘tnsping name’ command shows a path of sqlnet.ora, usually the same that tnsnames.ora is allocated. Under windows doesn’t display information about this.
For example:
On UNIX:
tnsping ####
TNS Ping Utility for IBM/AIX RISC System/6000: Version 9.2.0.4.0 - Production on 03-MAY-2007 13:55:58
Copyright (c) 1997 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
Used parameter files:
/software/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/admin/sqlnet.ora
On WINDOWS:

TNS-03505: Message 3505 not found; No message file for product=NETWORK, facility
=TNS
Exists any command to do it or any command that shows this information?
Thank you very much!!!
Marc.

Hi!
In windows you also get the message what sqlnet.ora was used.
The error message you get
TNS-03505: Message 3505 not found; No message file for product=NETWORK, facility=TNSlooks like there is something wrong with your client installation, it can't find it's message file so you don't get your sqlnet.ora path. I suppose in your case knowing the location of tnsnames.ora wouldn't help since your client isn't installed correctly.

How do you remove the filename/path using the SDK

I have a program that uses the Adobe Acrobat SDK . It creates aPDF file from a HTML file that gets created after the program cruches some data. It can create the PDF file fine but how do I get it to do it with out the file name and path in the lower left corner. We insert the created PDF file into another document and do not want to show the data on these created pages.
Have searched through this site and can not see it mentioned. HELP !!!

I am not the programmer, he is out of the office today.
What I see happen is that our program is used to create a database of the content of a multipage PDF file (an old doucment that has been scanned and OCR'd), the program then outputs the data as a HTML file (not the Adobe SDK).
This HTML file is then converetd into a PDF file and attached to certain subsets of the original PDF file, its does a whole bunch of splitting and recombining of the document into the sections we need. It does this fine, no problems at all. All of this is done using our program and the Adobe SDK.
The issue is that the PDF file (generally just one page) that gets created from the HTML file includes file name and file path at the lower left corner of the page. We are looking for the commands within the SDK that can turn the feature/function that creates this text on/off.
As the Adobe Acrobat on this machine is used for many different jobs, some that require this text to be shown on other documents that are created (by using Acrobat itself and not the SDK) we really don't want to have to open Acrobat itself everytime we want to run this process.
The SDK seems to have commands for pratically everything else, we were hoping it also has the commands within it that we can then program to not create this one area of text when converting the HTMl to PDF file from within our program..
I hope that comes across OK
PS
I just ran a test creating a PDF file froma webpage, and I can see the field Place Headers and Footers on a new page. I have tried creating the page with and without the Headers and Footers, that works fine. But can this be done just by using the SDK and if so where is that command located.
