SDO_NN and SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE return distance on way or on straight line?

Hi to all,
I want ask you if the distance between 2 points computed with SDO_NN and SDO_WITHIN_DISTANCE is a distance on the way that connects these two points (for example 35 miles) or is a distance on a straight line that connects these two points (for example 20 miles)?
thank you very much.

Ok Jack, thank you.
I understood. For straight line I mean a distance that doesn't pass for the streets but on the earth without considering the streets (distance as the crow flies).
Do you confirm that this result is a distance as the crow flies?
Thank you very much.

    Simon,
    you can use the duration function:
    B4=DURATION(0,0,B1/B2)
    you can further, format the cell as a duration like this using the cell inspector:

    I have customized my Firefox toolbar several times. After closing the browser and then reopening it, the toolbar has returned to the way it was before I customized it each time. How do I get my customization of the toolbar to become permanent?
    It has occurred with Firefox 4.0.1 and 5.0

    see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
    Take a picture of your toolbars so you can easily reconstruct them from the default after solving the the problem.
    If it happens to you it will probably happen again in the future so you might want to keep some copies of your modified localstore.rdf file so you can delete the bad one and rename one of the replacements in waiting. Saving, copying and renaming must be done with Firefox down, of course.

  • I installed Vaudix and now my browser is way slower and can't uninstall it

    Hi
    I am using OS X version 10.8.5 and safari 6.1. I installed Vaudix which i should have never done, but can't uninstall it. I tried a virusscan; virusbarrier express but it didn't find anything. I don't have timemachine running so i don't have a restore point. If anyone knows how to get rid of it please do tell.
    Safari is now way slower and i'm afraid it will affect my whole mac.
    Thanks

    It seems to be a Safari extension that also installs "Genieo." There is an uninstaller, but as the developer is not trustworthy, you shouldn't rely on it. I suggest the tedious procedure below to disable Genieo.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Applications/Genieo.app
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
    /Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
    /usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
    /usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib
    Note: Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file doesn't exist.
    The following configuration file is either created or modified by the Genieo installer:
    /etc/launchd.conf
    The file is unlikely to be used by anything but Genieo or something equally undesirable. Unless you know you need it, delete it in the same way as above. Otherwise, edit it to remove the line that begins as follows:
    setenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
    The above is not a file, but a line inside a file.
    Reboot. Safari should now launch without crashing. If not, stop here and post your results.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extension you don't recognize. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    The Genieo installer may also install the "Silverlight" web plugin from Microsoft. If you have no use for that plugin, you should remove it according to Microsoft's instructions. Don't remove it if you subscribe to "Netflix."
    This procedure may leave a few files behind, but it should render Genieo permanently non-functional, as long as you never reinstall it.

  • I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

    I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

    While not in edit mode:
    - if start typing numbers, then it enters number mode.
    - if start typing text, then it enters text mode.
    Using the arrow keys exits edit mode. So this should work for you:
    1 Type text into a cell, which enters text mode.
    2 Press Return to move to the next cell.
    3 Press right arrow key to exit edit mode.
    4 Press left arrow key to get back to the cell.
    5 Type a number, which enters number mode.
    Another method that requires more planning ahead of time is to format the cells as text or number before starting the data entry. Then when you navigate to a cell while in edit mode, you will be in the appropriate mode (without having to exit edit mode).
    This all works fine for me. Hopefullly it does for you also.

  • I I made a PDF fie to preview, but am still apprehensive to actually order the book, as I have ordered some prints of photos after I thought i had them cropped correctly and prints returned with heads, half of bodies have a book formatted and ready to buy

    I have formatted a photo book, but am apprehensive to push the "buy" button as I have ordered prints that I thought were cropped correctly, and they returned with heads cut off and half of bodies mising.  I have put the book on a PDF file as instucted, please reassure me that if everything looks right there, that is the way the book will look??

    If the PDF looks good then the printed copy should be OK.  The only problem you might run into is the color rendering.  As long as none of your photos use the sRGB profile and not the Adobe RGB color profile the color should be fine.
    On those prints that were cropped incorrectly: did you copy them to the print size ordered before uploading for printing? If not then they will be cropped by the printing equipment and you'll lose part of the top and bottom of the print (for landscape prints).

  • List manager displaying view value and not return value

    Hello,
    I'm using a list manager based on pop-up LOV. When I click on an item on the pop-up window, the window is closed and the return value is inserted in the page textbox. I would like to have (as expected) the view value, and have the return value used just as field value during form submit.
    I'm using Application Express 2.1.0.00.39
    Thanks.
    Eugenio

    Unfortunately, you can't. The way to do it is to return the display value into the List Manger item and then use the APEX_UTIL.STRING_TO_TABLE function to loop through the values and fetch the IDs. You will need to make sure the LOV items are unique and don't contain any colons.
    I hope that helps

  • LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed

    hello - i am having this issue and can't get around this when creating a popup LOV based on sql.
    below is LOV query. as you see the view has only two columns. I tried various ways by giving alias to columns in query but nothing works. What did I miss here?
    select description,inventory_item_id from xx_apex_inv_v
    1 error has occurred
    LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different. If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query.

    Did you try it like this?
    select description d, inventory_item_id v from xx_apex_inv_v

  • I get an error -626 and ndsconfig returns a value of 78.

    Hello guys,
    Here is a brief summary of the network design. We have a School server in the Network A. The Main eDir is in a Network B.
    The school server to access the Main eDir goes through a DNAT configured on our firewall.
    During the different steps I can browse my ldap on the main eDir without any issue.
    This to complete the information about Existing Tree Information, Local Server Configuration and Linux User Management Configuration for example.
    However, at the moment of the eDir configuration (I use the GUI) the software returns an error -626 and ndsconfig returns a value of 78.
    Our issue seam to arise when using the NCP for replication I guess. The questions are: is it possible to DNAT NCP and if it is what is missing?
    Of course, if I were installing another server on the Network B and try with the same settings it will work.
    I have seen in different posts that replication is not possible through NAT. However I can't find anything regarding the ncp protocol that would explain why our DNAT shouldn't work.
    I opened these ports.
    389 LDAP
    636 LDAPS
    524 NCP
    427 SLP
    8443 iManager
    8009 NRM
    8030 iMonitor
    8028 iMonitor
    Is there a formal documentation that I can relate to?
    Thank you in advance and I wish you already a great weekend.

    It could potentially work, but normally it does not work unless you do
    some really interesting stuff with routing. Here is why:
    When one server looks up how to reach another server, the way that
    referral is given includes the target server's IP address, as seen by the
    target server. As a result, if you are on 17u2.16.0.1 for serverA, and
    you ask to talk to serverB which has address 192.168.0.1, the referral
    (within the NCP packet) will tell the server to access 192.168.0.1. Since
    neither 172.16.x.x nor 192.168.x.x are routable normally, and since you're
    using DNAT, the addresses won't get to their destination and you have a
    connection problem (-626).
    The ability NCP has to provide addresses to clients and servers via
    referrals, NDS Pings, and the like is really powerful because it means, in
    a network that allows it, that any client/server can find any
    replica-hosting server to be accessed directly. The downside of this is
    that technologies which mess with the network layer by hiding IP addresses
    break the way clients would access servers.
    LDAP, for example, doesn't usually report anything about how to reach a
    server. Normally a client knows which server to ask from the very start
    and then goes there. Even with eDirectory, if an LDAP client accesses an
    eDirectory server that does not have a replica of the desired object, then
    by default the eDirectory server (not the LDAP client) goes and follows
    referrals to find and return the object.
    For these reasons, NAT is normally not supported between eDirectory
    servers. Could you make it work? Probably assuming you can get your
    routers to handle things properly, but it's going to be more than just
    dropping things in place and hoping they work, and it will be more than
    just allowing TCP/UDP ports through.
    Good luck.

  • Scaling objects and having the distance from the center point remain the same

    Hello,
    I hope someone can help!
    How do you scale a shape--a square, say--from small to large then back to small and have the distance be the same from the shape's center point?
    I'd like to be able to specify the distance and the sizes of the smallest shape and the largest shape and the steps in between.
    There must be an easier way than the time consuming method I'm using.
    Thank you.

    1 Make your smallest and largest square or object
    2 make a blend with specified number of steps and specify the number you need.
    3 at this point it is not necessary to have them space the finally distance.
    4 then make the blend
    5 Use the Effects>Distort and Transform>Transform to copy, reflect and move and create a new instance of the blend.
    6 Expand the Appearance of the Transform now eliminate one of the large squares using the direct select tool and ungroup the squares.
    (you have to ungroup twice)
    7 Now holding down the shift key move one of the smallest square to the position you want it to be in the end.
    8 do the same for the other smallest square.
    9 now select all the squares and use the horizontal center distribute command in the align panel or control panel with the option to align to selection.
    That should do it.
    Actually simpler then the number of steps indicates.
    You get this

  • My parents and I share itunes and their music keeps downlaoding onto my laptop and phone, is there any way to prevent this from happening?

If anyone has any ideas besides burning everything to discs I'd love to hear it.

    Hey there 79usma79!
    I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
    This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
    iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
