Setting Default GUI Properties for Opened Files?

OK, so you can set up a template for AIs you create yourself, to include things like Layer Panel thumbnail size etc, but can this be done for opened files?
I work on a very large screen and always want to increase the layers panel thumbnail size, but it's a few clicks to do it, and I'd like to be able to set this value for all opened files, if this is possible. The default thumb. size is way to small and always needs bumped up.
Are these values stored in the AI (since templates are simply AI files) or can a default value be set? if so, how can I do this?
Thanks
Richard

You cannot change this for all opened files, as this is a per document setting unfortunately.
To make a new document profile as per Monika open one fo the profiles here:
Users/ Username/ Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS4/en_US/New Document Profiles
Change your thumbnail size to larger, then save over that profile
When you make a new document choose that profile.

How to set default sharing permission for new files???

Hello. I have an imac 24" and a macbook pro 15". they are connected over an airport network. i have file sharing set up, which is working great. i am having one problem though.
whenever a file is created on either computer, it defaults to only allow the other computer to access it read only. is there a way to set a preference that will make all new files that are created to have read & write permission by the other computer????

the easiest way to do that is to connect from one computer to the other not as a guest but as a registered user. then any files you create will be owned by that user. so if you have user1 on imac and user2 on mbp connect from the imac to the mbp as user2.

API to access and set properties for MP4 files

I am looking for some APIs in Visual C++ to use in Visual Studio to set
and get properties for .mp4 files. Can anyone help me in this regard?

Hi Rahul,
Try using the Windows Media Format SDK with help from the below document:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tims/archive/2004/03/28/extracting-metadata-from-windows-media-files.aspx
Alternatively, you can give a try to ffmpeg libraries for a open source alternative.

How to set a keyboard shortcut for open with VLC player

Hey everyone!
I have reffered the earlier discussion upon creating a shortcut for the open with function and the below is the correct answer for it by using applescript editor submitted by Barney. However, I couldn't get past the 1st paragraph. It all just went over my head. Especially the "open (thefilelist) " part. Which filelist is being referred to here? All I want is a shortcut for opening files with .avi, .mpeg, and .3gp exts. with VLC player. Please help me out by providing the exact stuff I need to paste in the applescript.
Thanks
Ok, this one works both on the finder selection and as a droplet:
property htmlList : {"htm", "html"}
property htmleditor : "TextWrangler"
property textList : {"txt", "text"}
property texteditor : "TextEdit"
--property myappextlist: {"ext1","ext2","ext3"}
-- property myappsname: "myAppName" on run
tell application "Finder"
set the fileList to the selection
repeat with aFile in fileList
set theFile to aFile as string
my myOpen(theFile)
end repeat
end tell
end run on open (thefileList)
repeat with i from 1 to number of items in thefileList
set this_item to item i of thefileList
my myOpen(this_item)
end repeat
end open on myOpen(aFileAlias)
set theItemInfo to info for (alias aFileAlias)
if not folder of theItemInfo then
set theExtension to name extension of theItemInfo
if theExtension is in htmlList then
tell application htmleditor
open aFileAlias
activate
end tell
end if
if theExtension is in textList then
tell application texteditor
open aFileAlias
activate
end tell
end if
-- if theExtension is in myappextlist then
-- tell application myAppName
-- open this_item
-- activate

Mass-Update Default Print Properties for Spool Authorization (S_SPO_ACT)

Dear Experts
To protect HR spool requests it is possible to use the print-authorization in combination with the authorization object S_SPO_ACT.
In case a HR user prints a form the the print-popup will default the user-parameter SAU for print-authorization. When printed like this the value of the SAU-parameter will be added to the spool request.
In case the HR user prints a ABAP-list the value of the user-parameter SAU is not defaulted in the print popup. Instead seperatly saved defaults print properties (see print popup -> properties) are taken.
How can I mass-change these default print properties? How can I set these default print properties for other users?
Thanks in advance

Please note that with SAP BASIS release later than 620, parameter id 'SAU' is either no longer used or only used in a limit fashion. The default spool authorization is now stored in cluster 'UV' instead of at 'USR05' / parid 'SAU' .
If your users already have 'SAU' parameter populated with proper spool authorization, SAP has an ABAP util 'RSTRANSPARAMSAU' to store this in the cluster. Once you run this util, default spool authorization will
be populated properly each time spool files are created.

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log in

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log into CC since I am not a subscriber, and this means that I have to work around, and go back to Bridge, and tell it to open the file in Adobe RAW. However, this does not work for older psd files which for some reason cannot be opened in RAW. How do I return to the process of simply allowing RAW files to open automatically in Adobe RAW, and simply right clicking on the image in Bridge to bring up the option of opening it in Photoshop?

How to set up display properties for a crosstab is CSS?

I am woundring how to setup css class and code like in this tutorial.
myalerting.css ?
Set up display properties for a crosstab: Design Studio 1.2 - YouTube.
Design Studio 1.2: Set up display properties for a crosstab
if you have sample file please share I am sure other can be befits from as well.
I would like to use color display on numbers or icons in seperate column if the value in certain range or a value is below or avove business needs.
Thanks.

Kevin,
I could not get this to work on my installation; perhaps you can review and "run with it" or someone better with CSS can assist.
The gist of it is there is a class .sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlert1Background to define the status symbol for the alerts
Based on your Exceptions in the BEx query, Good 1 is .sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlert1Background
Good 2 is .sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlert3Background
etc... Bad 3 (red symbol) is .sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlert9Background
I tried the following custom CSS on the crosstab, note using IE (which now we can no longer use until Microsoft patches)
myAlerting.sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlternating{
background-color:#F9F9F9 !important;
myAlerting.sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault{
background-color:#FFFFFF !important;
myAlerting.sapzencrosstab-DataCellDefault.sapzencrosstab-DataCellAlert1Background

I didn't want to hold you up and for sure I hope there is someone in the community who could help. I'll try again when we can use IE

i think what he want is to change the Win + E shortcut to This PC.
I understand that is the goal. I've tried the registry hack, it works, but I found it left fragments of other files from "Home' scatter around in there too. We all been using this new version of windows for a few weeks now, built up a list of stuff
we have looked at, and that is why I said it's not the prettiest solution. It might have been okay if it was done just after a fresh install. In my alternative solution, you are bringing the This PC icon out to a more accessible place so you
don't have to use the File Explorer icon to get at the volumes i.e. hard drive view.
Personally, when I launch the File Explorer, I am expecting to be looking for something straight away on my hard drives and not be presented with a list of stuff that I have already looked at. That kind of thing should be left
in a Recent Folder sort of thing we use to see in the older versions of windows.

This is an error from my HP scanner. How can I fix the problem? An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.

I recently uploaded the Maverick operating system. I wanted to scan some things on my HP Printer/Scanner and could not . This is the error message I received: An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only. I am a novice with the computer and have no one to help. I hope someone knows an easy fix.
Thank you

This worked for me:
"Although it is not a 'fix' for the HP issue, I did find a workaround that helped me. In the Preferences Panel in MacOS X you can pull up the Printer/Scanner preferences and scan directly from OS X. I'd not known of this prior to posting here and it worked like a charm."

Set default grid artwork for composer grid view

As the title I wanted to know if there is a way to set default grid artwork for composer grid view.
Thanks.

Nope. It is the first image from the first track of the first album that has artwork. As you move your pointer over the icon you will get any other images assoicated with that composer.

How to define "byte stream type" for "open file"?

Hello,
I created some numbers (type "double") in Matlab and stored in a file. What value should I use to specify the "byte stream type" for "open file" in Labview? Should I put something like "DBL" or "I32". I don't know where to find the list of legal "types" in Labiew help.
Thanks so much!
Felicia

Looks like 7.1:
The Matlab "double" is 64 bits (8 bytes). It doesn't make much sense to use an integer datatype to read a floating point value, so you would use DBL in LabVIEW. The numeric data types table can be found here.
By the way, this assumes you saved the file as raw binary, as opposed to a .mat file, which is something different.
