Best Practice tips for publishing Captivate 8 project?

Does anyone have any Best Practice Tips for publishing Captivate 8 projects? Is HTML5/Flash the most universal?
We will begin testing/training before our LMS is functional.
We have no shared network capability or SharePoint type platform. Project is too large for e-mail even when zipped.
I am thinking that we will have to use thumb drive/CD along those lines.

New Decimal Notation Format Required For Indian Projects

Respected Members,
As at the user level or tcode SU01 only three decimal notations are provided.
But for country India the decimal notation format is totally different.
Given decimal notation format is
1,234,567.89
And the Required Format For India is
1,23,456.78
Becoz we mention the Rupees in this format only.
And this second format is not available in SPRO also .
How to create the desired decimal notation and add the corresponding functionality.
And if we use the given format (1,234,567.89) then when we converting the amount in words through Function module
SPELL_AMOUNT ,it is not converting properly even though we have maintain the entries in View V_T015Z.
Suppose our amount is 1,00,000 that is One lakh but it will show in the output ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND.
I know that there is another function Module HR_ch_ something to convert in words according to indian currency.
But it does not solve the issue properly.
THis DECIMAL NOTATION format for Indian Projects is a BIG MESS.
So kindly tell me any solution or it is the drawback of SAP.
So that we can ask SAP to append this Decimal Notation and required Functionality for the Indian Projects.
Kindly Send Your Valuable answer and Try To Make clear picture and SAP Technical People if Reading this thread then kindly give stress on the REQUIRED DECIMAL NOTATION.
THANKS A LOT.

SD report for school project

Hi Experts,
Please may I get some guidance, I have a course work project as I am studying BW and I need to produce a report for a SD case. The report needs to show the following:
Characteristics
Sales Organization
Delivery Date (From/To)
Shipping Point
Sales District
Vehicle Route
Vendor/haulier
Key Figures
Delivered Qty (Volume)
Delivered Qty (Weight)
Delivered Qty (SKU)
Shipment Cost Value
I am taking the following steps to find the above:
1. In R/3 > SD look at datasources to find the fields required.
2. Once datasources have been identified to transfer to BW and activate the business content
3. Identify the cubes used by the datasource (AWB>Infosource and look at dataflow for the datasources I found containing required fields).
For any GAP analysis identified I will provide field, table and user exit for ABAP programmer.
Are these the correct steps? Have I missed anything? Also could someone please provide a template document I can use to write up the requirements as a blue print?
Thanks for your help in advance, I will award points for help.
Vic Kumar Manni

Yes thank you, I was looking at all the datasources in SD so thanks for point me to these ones.
As a starting point is it helful to look at Christopher Solomon tables and check for fields in SE11?
Also, any tips for report layout/ blue print?
Thanks,
Vic

I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old. Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?

I have a Macbook Pro 15" that is three and a half years old. Although it has slowed a bit, it still runs well and runs every program I need. Any tips for how to keep this old computer running well and in good health?
I have a 250 gig drive and try to keep at least 100 gigs unused at all times, 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM memory, back up with Time Machine and CrashPlan, and have OS X 10.7.3.
This was my first Mac since an old Apple II GS. After that I used PC's and got really good at reformatting, replacing drives, reinstalling, defragging, resolving software conflicts, etc. Since switching back to Macs (five in my extended family now), I haven't had to do any of those things. So, although, the cost is three times as much, the aggrevation has been ten times less.
I'm retired and living on a fixed income and would therefore like to keep this computer running as opposed to constatntly upgrading.
That said, any tips?
Thanks
It does have a crack on the left of the screen case about 3/4'' up from the bottom. I've posted that as another question.

Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior. Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
Carbon Copy Cloner
Data Backup
Deja Vu
SuperDuper!
SyncTwoFolders
Synk Pro
Synk Standard
Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Adding more RAM, if feasible, and a new, faster hard drive may also help pep it up a little.

How do I control the Quicktime Export settings for a project

I want to make a printed photo album in iPhoto for my parents Diamond Wedding Anniversary and so have set up a project with the appropriate template. I now want to create a preview quicktime movie of the book so far in order to send it to my brother and sister. I chose file>export but I get no options for changing the transitions, music or timing of the movie.
iPhoto help seems to imply that it will use the setting for the slide show but I have changed these with no effect. Am I out of luck and there is no option or have I missed something.
Thanks
Dave

You're not able to set different transitions by that method. However, if you follow Old Toad's Tutorials #6 thru Step 5 you can create a slideshow in iPhoto with the transitions of your choice, music, etc. and use the Share->Send to iDVD menu option. You don't have to use iDVD after that as the exported movie will be saved in your Movies folder. From there, if you've got Quicktime Pro, you can open the movie in QT Player and export in any number of formats and sizes. It would depend on how you plan to deliver the movie as to what export option you would use.
You could make an iWeb slideshow of the book like this demo page or create DVDs which can be played on TV sets by following Tutorial #6 thru to completion.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Great acne/scar removal trick + workflow tips for short music vids + creating a "template" in FCPX

To all fine people of the FCP X community forum:
     I’ve received a tremendous amount of helpful commentary on these boards. Using FCPX for my projects has really expedited my post production process. I thought I would show my gratitude by giving a tip I have been using the **** out of. For any skin imperfections like scars/acne/blemishes etc., i’ve been using the CENSOR tool. Here’s a before and after, You can see the censor filter applied to her forehead and a separate censor application with slightly different settings to her right cheek.
     I thought this might help others who are photographers who like to include videos of their shoots with models but don’t want to deal with After Effects/Motion. Full short video available here: http://instagram.com/p/nqdtqzTT7m/
     Unfortunately I wouldn’t be making my entrance into this beloved forum if I wasn’t in search of some advice from those much wiser than I. I am constantly making these 15 second BTS clips of my models and one of the most changed/switched out/substituted shots in almost every project I do is my first shot and the song selection.   Since I tend to use a lot of cuts even if I change the song last second it isn’t an issue to make a few adjustments between shots (helps that the duration of the video is so short) as long as the song has a fast tempo. I don’t add my song selection to the primary storyline and connect my video clips due to the fact that usually the song may be swapped out once a model decides she’d prefer something else or if I have a change of heart. Common sense tells me to avoid this annoyance by just working on my cuts first and waiting until the completion of my edit to add music. So what i’ve been doing is just working on the video and while editing listen to potential tracks on iTunes or via finder. But wanted to ask you guys:
1 - Should I stop adding my audio at the very end as a connected clip and just make add audio directly to my primary storyline and all video that I add subsequently are just “connected clips”? What is the benefit to this in regards to speed considering how often I am changing my starting and ending clips? I never did this because I assumed if I don’t want to use the song any more it would be too much of a hassle to add those clips to a new song (seems like i’d have to create a compound clip of everything with the old song disabled). Any thoughts?
2 - Am I able to create a “template” for common projects? For my BTS videos I generally always want my videos to be 23.98 fps, 1080, have 50 pixel margins on the top and bottom, generate a white background and have entire video shrink down to 58% for it to fit within the confines of apps like Instagram or Vine. It would save a **** of a lot of time if I could just save a template for these projects…
3 - I would just about KILL to see a few music video workflow options. I’m a Lynda.com subscriber and don’t see any workflow options, searched Larry David’s tutorials couldn’t find any and there aren’t many options on Youtube. Ever music video editor I know who works professionally uses Adobe Premiere… I would like to be the first in my circle to use and convince everyone to switch.
Thanks again for your all of your help everyone, hope my tip helps someone!
Anthony

Muito abrigado my friend! Seriously thanks a million, but I was curious to know about my situation regarding replacing my first shot multiple times... In another words there's a clip already in the storyline which won't allow me to replace edit since it just moves out of the way. Would you just go back into the browser and add the original selection to the first clip? Because I kept having to move my connected music and solid I just gave up and would wait until the end to add the music and solid (I add the solid to give the background a different color when I want to create the letterbox effect).
I just watched a music video tutorial where someone created a 3 minute solid, made like a hundred cuts with the blade tool and manually dragged each clip from his browser to replace from start for each of those cuts in the solid...
What is your workflow for music-based edits? Do you place the song in the primary story line and use the video as connected clips? Do you use a solid or gap clip and dissect it with cuts and replace the segments with clips? I really hate not being able to add markers to the timeline and must make those marks on a clip/generator/music track of some kind. Also if you have a project that has the same settings with fps, crop size, solid as a background is there a way to make template so I don't have to do that each and every time?
Thanks again my friend!!!

Tips for parsing xml in a shell script?

Hello,
I'm writing a shell script to extract info from an xml file to create various text files that share data in the form of custom entities declared at the top of the document (product id, name, version, copyright date, etc.). So far I'm using xmllint which is working well. I'm extracting text for my project files using xmllint --shell:
<pre style="padding-left: .75ex; padding-top: .25em; padding-bottom: .25em; margin-top: .5em; margin-bottom: .5em; margin-left: 1ex; max-width: 80ex; overflow: auto; font-size: 10px; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #222; background: #eee; line-height: normal">echo cat lls_cd_product/plist | xmllint --noent --shell xyz.xml | sed -e '1d; $d'</pre>
This is working well, but --shell mode adds an extra line to the beginning and end which I let sed cleanup, but then I need to strip the enclosing tags as well.
Xmllint does a good job of filling in my entities with the exception of MacRoman bullet characters that I've entered as ¥. These are just converted to the same entity in hex, ¥. I suppose I can replace those with sed, but that's starting to feel kludgey.
I'm beginning to wonder if there may be a better way to do this. I'm not very familiar with XSL, but I am considering ramping up on that.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Hopefully useful tips for endless processing

I also posted this in reply to another user, but I think it might be useful enough to others that I will post it here so it's not so buried.
I'm just starting, after many, many hours, to see the light at the end of the tunnel with Aperture 3. I think A3 offers some great options, and is a diamond in the rough -- very, very rough, even in v3.0.1.
But I think I have some VERY USEFUL TIPS for you here (again this is after a lot of learning by pain... 4 different attempts to "upgrade" my A2.1.4 library (42K images about 200GB of images).
1st, and possibly most importantly the "SHIFT" key is your friend. You can use it when you restart A3 to stop the endless processing loop that A3 would fall into every time I upgraded or imported my library to A3 (or 3.01). All you need to do is hold down the "SHIFT" key while restarting A3, this should top all previously stuck processing as you upgrade your library. So use this tip after you first upgrade/import your library, if the processing bug hits. Then you have to be patient and go though your library and figure out where the problem files are (Apple has done a LOUSY job in not identifying what specific images A3 is processing in the "Activity Window" -- Let Apple know if this really bugs you)
2nd, at this point you will need to systematically go through your library and figure out where the "problem" files are and "fix" them (in my case all of these worked just fine in 2.1.4 - go figure). I would start by generating thumbnails for all of the images in a project, one project at a time (I had 150 some in my library). When you get stuck in the "processing" loop again, you can restart A3 using the "SHIFT" trick, and maybe just try a chunk of images within that same project until you find where things fail again, and until you can get to the offending image (if it's a problem you won't be able to generate a thumbnail for the image -- and A3 will go into endless "processing" mode)
3rd, this sound like a horribly tedious process and it is. But I can offer you some useful tips. In my case, and others as well apparently, a lot of the offending files are 16-bit PSD or TIFF images, especially if they had adjustments applied in A2.1.4. In my case I had fewer than 50 of these, so I exported an original and a jpg for each of these files. I re-imported the jpg and deleted the PSD/TIFF from A3 (I kept the exported original for future use). These files would then generate thumbs without endlessly processing. The other type of file that I ran into problems with were stitched panoramic images (often over 30MP) that I had applied adjustments to in A2.1.4. I simply removed the adjustments and the generated thumbs for them (worked like a charm).
4th, download some good podcast, music or audiobook... this will take a long time.
Cheers, and look me up in FaceBook I started a group called "Apple Please Fix Aperture"

Danny,
Funny you should mention this.... (actually it makes you look a bit like a "schill", even though you are not)... nope, as far as I can tell there is no way to tell which specific images are causing A3 to grind to a halt.
Hence my comment:
"(Apple has done a LOUSY job in not identifying what specific images A3 is processing in the "Activity Window" -- Let Apple know if this really bugs you)" and similar previous ones in other posts.
I wonder if Steve, yes that one, knew about this, being the perfectionist he seems to be, if he would have this feature included in Activity Monitor ASAP, or more likely it would have just been fixed by now (more of a "one-button" solution). Anyone have his house #?
In any case, I please let me (us) know if this helps resolve your problems... and consider joining the Facebook group as well and maybe we can hope for a much better 3.x.x version in the very near future.

Awesome Tip for editing a PDF when you don't have the fonts

Needed to do this yesterday and looked online and found out how to edit a PDF file in Illustrator when you don't have the fonts. This is a godsend and thought others might benefit from it if they don't know about it.
Problem: You get a PDF file from somebody and when you try to open it in Illustrator, the PDF is using fonts that you don't have so it substitutes the fonts and screws everything up.
Solution: Create a new Illustrator document the size of the PDF.
Place the PDF into the Illustrator document.
While the PDF is selected, go to Object menu / Flatten Transparency
In there, make sure"Convert All Test to Outlines" IS checked.
Click OK and there you go, everything is converted to outlines, including the fonts and you can do with it what you want.
Enjoy!

It's an excellent tip. This can also be done within Acrobat: Flatten transparency with Convert Type to Outlines toggled on, then Save As a new PDF, then Embed-Place the new PDF in Illustrator. It's a functionally identical process, although yours is superior because it requires fewer steps.
While Tom is right that you can't edit the text (because it isn't live), you certainly can, for example, include artwork from another party that would otherwise lose its typographic appearance.

Tips for importing large JPEGs into PE

The short version of my question is that I am looking for the most efficient way to import a large number of very large JPEG still photos (with various pixel dimensions) into a Premiere Elements project with the best resulting image quality possible. I have been frustrated so far with the resulting image quality.
Here’s some more detail. I am brand new to PE. I’m using PE 11 on Windows Vista. I had been putting up with Windows Movie Maker for many years, but finally threw in the towel due to its ungraceful handling of AVCHD video. I want to combine still photos with my home movie video in my projects and create DVDs for playback on an NTSC widescreen HDTV.
My JPEG still photos come from several different cameras, and I do a lot of cropping. So the pixel dimensions vary quite a bit. The uncropped pixel size from my DSLR is 4000x6000, so they are too big to import into PE. I read that a good approach was to create a slide show in Organizer and import this into PE. I used Organizer to create a WMV video slideshow with the highest quality settings. The WMV video doesn’t look too bad when I play it back on my PC. But I notice a significant degradation in image quality when I preview the WMV file in PE (compared to playing the file on my PC). The resulting quality of a published DVD is even worse (played on either TV/DVD or PC). PE selected HD 1080i, 1920x1080 for my project.
I know PE is not designed for still photo slideshows. I’m not expecting the same quality as the original JPEGs, but I think I can do better than what I am seeing so far. Any suggestions, tips, or links to reference articles would be greatly appreciated. I’ve also read about resizing the stills in Photoshop (I have Elements 11) and then importing into PE. I haven’t tried this yet, but this sounds like a lot of work (even with batch processing) due to all the different pixel dimensions I have with my photos.

A few weeks ago this same subect was being discussed. Taking Bill Hunt's and other's advice, I spent the larger part of a day trying it out. As near as I can tell, I followed Bill's advice carefully. I put together a demo video and posted it on Vimeo where viewers can download the original PrE11 output for examination. As I recall it was a long thread and by the time I posted the video interest was dying.
Here it is again: https://vimeo.com/60952115
It is only my personal experience, but resizing provided no advantage or disadvantage.
As another test I made a short video of about a half dozen random RAW photos and posted to Vimeo. I used no resizing and, to my eye, results are fine. Watch or download here: https://vimeo.com/60904593
Maybe the Adobe engineers have quietly put something into Premier Elements to resize, or somehow process, photos. I do know that when it was time to upgrade to ACR 7.2, and later 7.3, for Photoshop Elements, the automatic Adobe downloader/installer reported it updated ACR in Premier Elements. ACR does not process videos. It is for photos and is in PrE11.

Ideas for masters project in algorithmic problems?

Hi,
I'm about to start my masters project in computer science. The topic is algorithmic problems. So I'm wondering if you have any ideas for a project?
I have some ideas, but I'd like to get more. One of the ideas is to "remake the most annoying app you are forced to use". I'm not really forced to use any annoying apps though, perhaps some of you guys are? It has to require some sort of clever algorithmic design.
Thanks!

Well I could tell you some complex ones I got in touch with on my college, but they're pretty scenario-specific, so I don't know how will you like them:
1) Make a fully-playable checkers game with advanced AI.
2) Find fastest route from any point A to any point B on a grayscale map, with white pixel being the lowest altitude, and black being the highest altitude.
3) Make a system for student group substitution. This must include: StudentA from GroupA wants to switch to GroupB, but there are no spaces available in GroupB. StudentB from GroupB wants to switch to GroupC, which is also full. StudentC from GroupC wants to go to GroupA, but only switch available to him is an offer to go to GroupB from StudentB which he can execute. When he does it, he could switch with a StudentA for GroupA. But, he won't do that because he's not sure StudentA wants a spot in GroupB. Design a system which would recognize this and list all the pathways so each student can get into group he wants by switching groups to that target group. Note: this is said to be extremely difficult to make btw
4) ...
I'll edit if I remember more.
These were from few ago and it's possible I missed something in presenting them to you, I wrote them in my own words.

Some Tips for Cablecard Users with HBO

I have been using a cablecard with my Hauppauge DCR-2650 digital tuner and Windows Media Center on my Windows 7 PC for 3 months with no problems on any of the Prime HD channels. I just subscribed to HBO and was not able to access any of the HBO channels, SD or HD. The message "Subscription Required" would appear after a few seconds, along with a message saying I needed to obtain a subscription to HBO. After Live Chatting to 3 techs over 3 days, I was finally able to access the HBO channels. I'm not sure this solution is permanent, but this is what I did. First I updated the firmware and drivers for my Hauppauge device. Then when I Live Chatted with the technician, he performed a "manual cablecard validation". During this process he asked for my cablecard ID, the Host ID, the Data ID and the activation code. He had me switch channels from an HBO channel to a non-HBO channel, then back again. Voila! It worked. So if my HBO disappears in the future I'll be asking for a tech who knows how to perform a "manual cablecard validation". Now I had my HBO channels in HD, but the picture was flickering a bit, enough to make it annoying to watch. After Googling "HBO HD flicker" I found that the problem was not with the cablecard or Fios, but with the graphics adapter settings. I have an integrated graphics chip on my PC, an Intel 3000 graphics chip. I opened the graphics properties page and in the "Media" category under "Image Enhancement Option" I turned off the "Adaptive Contrast Enhancement" feature. This fixed the flicker. Hopefully this post will help those few who are using a cablecard with their Home Theater PCs.

Client requirement and questionery for fico

Dear sap Guru's
Any good hints or tips for FICO implementation in Malaysia?* am very fresher and first time am going to do implementation, plz guide.................
how to prepare a client requirement and questionery. plz help.............
tks
Roni

To add few more info..
*1) How we can integrate the client app and OSB service?*
Using event, like you can have a button in your client app, whenever you want to post the payload.
Click on the button and post the payload your OSB proxy will receive it and pass on to BPEL process.
*2) How to integrate the OSB service and BPEL process?*
          You use direct binding or use http soap call to access BPEL from OSB.
*3) Whether the BPEL process needs to be a Webservice with WSDL exposed to OSB proxy service?*
          Yes, it will be soap over http.
*4) BPEL how will it validate the employee details and store it in Oracle DB, how it will connect to the Oracle DB?*
Whether this is done through XQuery, XSTL? or plain java code with JDBC connection?
          As said before you can keep it with DBAdapter.
I have few questions for you.
*1. What is the significance of using OSB and BPEL in your architecture?*
     If you want to have better performanc, you can just use OSB without using BPEL.
     OSB with DB adapter will do the job for you.
*2.      Are you going to use just insert statement with your Database ?*
          If yes, just go for DB adapter, or if you have to run logic, you can keep those logic inside a procedure and expose as procedure to bpel.
          So that performance will be more.
- It is considered good etiquette to reward answerers with points (as "helpful" - 5 pts - or "correct" - 10pts).
Thanks,
Vijay
