Resizing an image in a layer using values from another layer

After resizing an image on a layer, is it possible to easily copy the resized width & height (pixel) values to images on other layers? If so, then how? I'm guessing there's an easy way, but it eludes me. Copying the values manually is okay with just a couple of layers, but rather tedious for changing many layers.

You could record an action to resize the layers. You could use the action only
on one layer at a time.
1. Pick the layer you want to have the other layers resized to and find the pixel dimensions
   of the layer i.e w 422 x h 830.
2. Pick the layer you want to resize and make it active.
3. Start recording the action following the steps below:
   (the menu commands are in red)
4. When you get to the image size dialog, set as below with your own
    pixel dimensions. Don't change anything in the document size from
    how it's set when the dialog opens.
5. After you record the action set the image size dialog so it opens
   whenever you run the action so you can change the pixel dimensions.
Click in the box to the right of the checkmark (highlighted above in red)

Using sourcetext from another layer as an array - blowing up expression

Hey all, I am doing something that I assumed would be a quick and easy, and it is turning into quite a headache.
Here is what I am trying... (The following works btw)
stuff = thisComp.layer("textSource").text.sourceText;
stuff[2]
The problem is that if I try an index higher than 3, the expression blows up. The error is somewhat odd too...
property or method named '4' in Class 'TextProperty' is missing or does not exist. It may have been renamed, moved, deleted...
The source layer has not gone anywhere. The only thing that changes was the index.
I want to break down the sourceText into individual letters to feed something else and this was how I was going to go about it as I don't think the you can 'split' into letters. I figured I could get the length of the string and then scoop out each letter. Not so much eh'?
Update...
Tried it with split, and this also breaks it. What's odd is it seems to work for just a moment, so the script takes the index, displays the letter, waits a second, then freaks out. It does the work/breaking thing as long as the string has contains enough characters, as where a request for something that is not there immediately breaks it (which we would expect)
stuff = thisComp.layer("This").text.sourceText.split("");
stuff[15]

Hey Dan,
First, thanks for your reply. I found my error. My source text is keyframed. I found a long lost keyframe with 4 letters in it which was causing problems for everything else. I had checked through them several times. My eyes have gone goofy I suppose, because it was right there, clear as day. Any idea of how many iterations I tried to make something that already worked, work. Grrrr. It's usually the little things that get ya, eh'?

Copying position value from one layer to another

Hy!
This is Pierluig, from Italy.
I'm a noob in after effect scripting language, but not so new to programming
Anyway, this is the question:
I have a composition with one layer on it. let's say firstlayer.
The layer has two effects on it: topeffect and bottomeffect.
Bottomeffect is an effect called (Transform).
In my script, I want another layer (let's say secondlayer) to set his position from the position of the bottomeffects of the firstlayer.
Problem is, the property "Position" of the secondeffect of the toplayer is calculated trough an expression.
This expressions use a function, and this function is not recognized by the script language
I've tried something like:
var myArr = ["0","0"];
myArr = firstlayer.property("Effects").property("(Transform)").property("Position");
secondo.Position.setValue(time,myArr);
And I got the error: Undefined, is not an object.
I've tried lots, tons of variation, and i've got lots, tons of variation in the error message , but always an error.
So the question is: how can i get my goal?
And my goal is to say, trough a script, after effect to set a property to a layer copying that property from another layer, assuming the layer from wich i copy the property get the property values trough an expression.
Hope I've been clear
Any help will be reallyappreciated, and I'll remember the helpers in my pray
Pierlu

Hi Pierlu,
You can use the valueAtTime() method to retrieve a value pre- or post-expression. Here's some sample code:
var firstLayer = comp.layer("firstlayer");
var secondLayer = comp.layer("secondlayer");
var firstLayerPosition = firstLayer.property("Effects").property("Transform").property("Position").valueAtTime(0, false);
secondLayer.position.setValue(firstLayerPosition);
Hope this helps.

Pass value from one layer to another.

Hey,
Is it possible to pass a value from one layer to another.
I have a text that I'll get from layer 1 and I want to pass the value to a TextArea in layer 3.
Is it possible, anyone?
Thanks.

I cannot be sure what you are calling a layer is what I know to be a layer--normally one does not go to layers, one goes to different frames. If you look at the timeline, it consists of frames and possibly multiple layers. Every layer has the same number of frames, and content in frame 1 of one layer is accessible by content in frame 1 of any other layer. So if you have a textfield in layer 1, frame 1, and you have a textarea in frame 1, layer 2, you can use code to have the text in one of those assigned to the other.
If you show a picture of what you are trying to describe it may help.

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

Hi,
Use NVL or COALESCE:
NVL (col_a, col_b)
Returns col_a if col_a is not NULL; otherwise, it returns col_b.
Col_a and col_b must have similar (if not identical) datatypes; for example, if col_a is a DATE, then col_b can be another DATE or it can be a TIMESTAMP, but it can't be a VARCHAR2.
For more about NVL and COALESCE, see the SQL Language manual: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/functions119.htm#sthref1310
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0).

How to create a new row for a VO based on values from another VO?

Hi, experts.
in jdev 11.1.2.3,
How to create a new row for VO1 based on values from another VO2 in the same page?
and in my use case it's preferable to do this from the UI rather than from business logic layer(EO).
Also I have read Frank Nimphius' following blog,but in his example the source VO and the destination VO are the same.
How-to declaratively create new table rows based on existing row content (20-NOV-2008)
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/13-create-with-params-169140.pdf
I have tried:
1.VO1(id,amount,remark1) and VO2(id,amount,remark2) are based on different EO,but render in same page,
2.Drag and drop a Createwithparams button for VO1(id,amount,remark),
3.add: Create insertinside Createwithparams->Nameddata(amount),
4.set NDName:amount, NDValue:#{bindings.VO2.children.Amount}, NDtype:oracle.jbo.domain.Number.
On running,when press button Createwithparams, cannot create a new row for VO1, and get error msg:

Hi,CM,
I'm really very appreciated for your quick reply! You know, today is Saturday, it's not a day for everyone at work.
My principal requirement is as follows:
1.select/check some rows from VO2, and for each selection create a new row with some attributes from VO2 as default values for VO1's corresponding attributes, and during this process the user may be cancel/uncheck or redo some of the selections.
--so it's better to implement it in UI rather than in EO.
2.it's better to implement this function with declarative way as in Frank Nimphius' blog.
--little Jave/JS coding, the better. I only have experience in ORACLE FORMS, little experience in JAVA/JS.
In order to get full information for the requirements of my use case, can take a check at:

(the end half of the thread: I have a more realworld requirement similar to the above requirement is:

Creating Variable with Replacement Path to get value from ANOTHER Variable

Hi all,
    Is anyone has created the Variable with Replacement Path to get the value from another User Entry Variable, PLEASE ?
First created the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next created the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we should get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error 'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path for my requirement, PLEASE ?
The following is from help.sap..com:
Replace with Characteristic Value
Text and formula variables with the processing type Replacement Path can be replaced with a corresponding characteristic value. In the variable editor, on the General tab page, you specify under Reference Characteristic the characteristic that is to be referenced by the replacement. On the Replacement Path tab page, you can choose whether the variable is replaced with the From or the To Value and with the Key or the Name of the characteristic value. You can also specify the Offset Start and Offset Length for the output.
Replace with Variable
Characteristic value variables, hierarchy variables, text variables, and formula variables with the Replacement Path processing type can take their values from a different variable.
The following prerequisites need to be fulfilled:
Variable
●      The variable must not be input-ready
●      The variable must represent a single value
Source Variable
●      The source variable must not be a hierarchy node variable
●      The source variable must be input-ready
●      The source variable must be available in the query
●      The source variable must represent a single value or an interval
In the variable editor, on the Replacement Path tab page, you specify the source variable from which the value is to be determined. The value is either determined from the key, the external attribute of the key, the description, or the attribute value. You can specify an Offset Start and an Offset Length for the output here. The variable is replaced on the variable screen upon each data release.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi Eve,
It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.
We are using the scenario in a couple of places, and it works very well.
Hope this helps...

SSRS Parameter value from another parameter

Hello Everybody,
I have a parameter that I need to get it value from another parameter.
The first parameter @rdt is a date - 11/01/2012
The second parameter @mm is the year and month = 2012
I tried putting in a select inside the query but it did not work
SET @mm = (SELECT cast(year(@rdt) as char(4)) + cast(month(@rdt) as varchar(2)))
Then I put it as a default value inside the parameter and it still did not work
=cast(year(Parameters!rdt.Value) as char(4)) + cast(month(Parameters!rdt.Value) as varchar(2))
Any ideas or suggestions ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Msj99,
I have tested the expression provided by
Visakh16 that it works fine , you will get the value as Integer type "YYYYMM", you can also use expression as below to get the string type of @mm (YYYYMM):
=Year(Parameters!rdt.Value)&Month(Parameters!rdt.Value)
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

Variable type Hierarchy, how to get the value from another similar variable

Hi.
We have created a variable, type hierarchy (using ORGEH hierarchy in HR based on 0ORGUNIT). Let's call this VAR1. We want to fill this with an User Exit, beacuse we want VAR1 to have the value from another variable, VAR2, which is also type hierarchy (and based on the same characteristic).
However, when we program this user exit and use the VAR1 afterwards, it just behaves as if we have a single characteristic value and not a node value. As a result, we just get posts which do have the 'parent itself' as characteristic value, and none of the subnodes... Any hints as to what we can do in our User exit to get the value passed over from VAR2 to VAR1 as a node value? Is there any spesific syntax to be used here that we are missing? ( The VAR1 and VAR2 are both defined as hierarchy variables, we have double checked...).

Hi,
are you on BI7.0? There you can create variables type replacement path and get the value out from a different variable without any coding.

Field with a default value from another field

I need to populate a field as the default value from another field that the user inputs. I've tried the scripting that I found from the below Topic in the Archived Forums, but I'm not able to make it work. I've tried numerous variations and still to no avail. I tried to make the scripting work in Acrobat 6 and then decided that maybe I needed to upgrade, so I'm now trying it in Acrobat 8 with no results. Can anyone help?

How can I have a field date2 which has the default value of field date1, but which can be edited by the user if necessary without changing the value of date1.
I've tried, but I just can't figure it out!
Any help much appreciated.

if(this.getField("date2").value == ""{
this.getField("date2").value = this.getField("date1).value;

Ben PF - 6:49am Mar 23, 07 PST (#2 of 2)
Thanks very much.
I put it in at document level to start, but it didn't run the script automatically when date1 was first filled in, so I have put it in as a mouse exit action in date1 and it works a treat.
Thanks for your help.
Ben

Okay forget what I posted above and lets start over. Go to your first field and under Properties -> Actions Tab -> Select Trigger -> On Blur Run A JavaScript.
Put this:
this.getField("myField2").value = event.target.value;
Make sure that you replace ("myField2") with the actual name of your second field. I just tested this and it works for Acrobat version 6.
I haven't been doing as much javascripting as I used to, so sometimes I too make some basic mistakes.

Can we use Result from another query in Webi using Bex uery universe?

Hi,
Can we use Result from another query filter option in Webi to create a report using a Bex Query universe?
I need to create a report using two universes, one is Bex Query Universe and the other is Orcle universe. I have two queries, one is using Oracle universe; the other using Bex Query universe. I need to pass the Oracle data from the Oracle query to the Bex Query query to get the matched data from SAP Bex query.
I used Result from another query in the query filter panel for the query using Bex query universe. But I got an error saying that 'A filter contains a wrong value. you cannot run this query. (Error: WIS 00007). The data used in the filter on both sides are the same. they are char.
I have tested by using two queries from the same Bex query universe to see if the Result from another query filter option works. And I got the same error.
Has anyone run into the same issue and if this is possible and what should be the solution?
Thanks in advance!
Edited by: BO_Haiyan on Oct 6, 2010 3:47 PM

In that situation:
Create two queries : Oracle and BW query.
@ Report:
As you have to see result set from both the Dataproviders, correct? To achieve thise one must have common dimension objects to merge them at report and use Objects those are coming from both queries to use them in single Table/Report.
Unless you don't use Merge Dimensions, you don't get a chane to use both queries objects in single Table/Report. (It will give tooltip saying: You can't drop here -- Incompatable Objects)
In case, if you don't have common dimensions, change object definitions to Detail objects, for those required.
Hope it helps you.
Thank You!!

How to derive a variable value from another variable of a different IO?

Hi Gurus,
I am aware that using BEx variables and Customer Exit you are able to derive a variable value from another variable of the same infoobject (for example, Fiscal Year/Period (0FISCPER) and Calendar Day (0CALDAY)).
However, is is possible, using the same approach to derive a variable value from another variable that is in a different InfoObject? (for example, Input Fiscal Year/Period (0FISCPER) but derive Output of Required Start Date (0REQSTDAT))?
There are 2 BEx variables involved,
1) A user entry variable that is restricted in 0FISCPER
2) A customer exit variable that is restricted in ZREQSTDAT
In CMOD under EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001, Include ZXRSRU01, the code (I assume, correct me if I'm wrong) should perform 3 functions in I_STEP = 2,
1) After the pop up, capture user entry of Fiscal Year/Period
2) Identify or convert Fiscal Year/Period to Calendar Day range (unsure on how to code this portion)
3) Use the Calendar Day to lookup on matching Required Start Date and display all Required Start Date that matches. (unsure on how to code on this portion)
Hope to hear your thoughts soon.
Regards,
Eric

Hi Shanthi,
I've made the necessary adjustments. The only difference in my code is,
Instead of,
If I_VNAM = 'ZREQSTDAT'
I use,
CASE I_VNAM.
Instead of,
PARAMETERS: ZFISCPER TYPE /BI0/OIFISCPER.
ZYEAR = ZFISCPER(4).
ZMM = ZFISCPER+4(3).
I use ,
This is the Customer Exit Variable in ZREQSTDAT
WHEN 'ZRSD_CX'.
The loop I use for the User Entry Variable in 0FISCPER-ZFYP_IN
LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
      WHERE VNAM = 'ZFYP_IN'.
    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
ZYEAR = LOC_VAR_RANGE(4).
ZMM = LOC_VAR_RANGE+4(3).
The codes were checked with no errors.
However, when I input the Fiscal Year/Periods and hit 'Execute'. The report went blank, not sure what is the cause. I've tried it several times. No error message appeared.

Eric

Get the value from another node.

Hi, expert
In the component BT131I_SLS , I create a enhanced attribute in the node: BT131I_SLS/Details BTADMINI
Then i define the GET-V method to create a search help for the attribute.
Now , i want to pass a BP number to the search help function to filter the data.
We need to get the BP number as below:
When create a order, we input the product id ,
then there will be a popup window , we can choose a vendor in the window.
The vendor number is the value which we want to pass to the search help.
How can i do that ?
Thanks.

Using data from another View

Is it possible to create a new Grid in the same analysis where calculated/Grand Totals columns/rows may be used?
I understand there is a feature use results from another analysis but wonder if it can be used in the same. Thanks.
Adi

Hi,
Say you have a report for retrieving Sales by Products for a company and showing up grand total of sales for all products too in the same report. So, how about a case where you would like to see each product's contribution to the whole sales numbers? For this, a new column could be something like
Measures.Sales*1.0/SUM(Measures.Sales)
Here Measures.Sales is the sales for each product and SUM(Measures.Sales) is nothing but the total sales ie grand total.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar
