Use the presenter on local PC

When uploading a PP 2013 pptx file to Adobe Connect I some text in Open Sans is breaking the textbox and starting a new line.
When using Presenter 10 on the local PC with the settings for presentation for Adobe Connect Pro that is not the case.
How can I avoid such overflow?
- is Open Sans working in Adobe Connect ( I have downloaded the fonts and can use them in win7 and PP
or do I have to use "Source Sans Pro by Adobe"?
- How can I download Source Sans Pro by Adobe into the Win7 and to use it as a standard font in the PC programs as Powerpoint etc?
Thanks,

The short version of the answer is that the font used in the PPTX deck is probably not one of the fonts available to the MS Server (which Connect lives on and is doing the conversion of your PPTX deck to Flash on), so it has to substitute it out for another similar font, thus causing the formatting issues. If you publish it locally, then you are using the fonts available on your computer to convert it to Flash, and have no formatting issue as a result.
So, you can either switch to a font that is in the standard MS list (I'm sure with some digging we can find a reference to that list), or publish locally with Presenter before pushing it up to Connect.

Msiexec /qn fails when its not run using the built-in local administrator account

Hello all,
I am working on a project where I am trying to automate the deployment of VMs through a self-service portal.
Among other tasks such as clone VM, sysprep it, assign an IP, create AD computer object, join VM to domain and so on..., i need to install a few applications using msiexec, which is driving me crazy...
For this purpose, I am using a local user account part of the administrators group.
Please note, UAC is disabled on all the OS.
Basically, the msi installation works as expected on Windows 7 machines, however on Windows 8/2012, it fails due to lack of permissions. The curious thing is that if I use the built-in\administrator account instead for the deployment on those systems, the
application is installed correctly.
I have tested some things such as: DisableMSI (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368304%28v=vs.85%29.aspx), but although it progresses a bit further, it keeps failing.
Does anyone know what I can do to allow an user part of the administrators local group to be able to install using msiexec /qn?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Does it work if you use the account in local admin, and run the commands prompt as administrator to install the msi file? Please know that Only the built in administrator account has admin privilege by default. On other admin accounts you need
to run with elevated privilege (ie runas).
I would like to know if you use SCCM to perform your deployment with task sequence.
As I known, even if you disable UAC, the following policy is still enabled to detect application installation.
Computer configuration\Windows settings\Security Settings\Local
Policies\Security Options -> User Account Control: Detect application installations and prompt for elevation policy
Please disable this policy to see if your issue can be fixed.

How to safely remove version of firefox that uses the system default locale?

I have Firefox with Greek locale due to my location.
I want to use Firefox in English, so I downloaded the English version and installed (in another HDD).
I've already set it as a default browser, and thus, clicking at the firefox quick launch icon opens the english locale version.
Now I would like to clean my system, simply removing the greek locale version (located at C HDD) but without losing any data/extensions/etc.
How can I do that?
Thank you for your time.

Installing the English (en-US or en-GB) version over the top of the Greek version would have been easier as that would have been replaced the Greek language pack (located in the omni.ja archive).
You can check the general.useragent.locale pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to make sure that it is set to the correct en-US (or en-GB) locale
If you have the Greek version listed in Control Panel > Programs then you can uninstall this version here.<br />
Make sure that you aren't removing your personal data when uninstalling as this will remove all Firefox profile folders.

Formatting Negative Currency using the Java.Util Locale

Hi....
I am using the Locale file to get the currency code of a specified country. The code is given below.
public String setCurrency(String _currency){
Locale locale = new Locale("","PG");
NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
this.currency = format.format(Double.parseDouble(_currency));
return currency;
When i pass a negative value as the currency (-200) the string which returns will be as (PGK200) and when i pass a positive value it will be as PGK200......
How can i format this so that when i pass a negative value, the returned String will be -PGK200 ??
If there is anyone who knows how i can get this done please reply soon....
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Nuwan.

Check this out:import java.text.DecimalFormat;
import java.text.NumberFormat;
import java.util.Locale;
public class CurrencyEg {
    private String currency;
    public String setCurrency(String _currency){
        Locale locale = new Locale("","PG");
        //NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
        DecimalFormat format = (DecimalFormat)NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
        format.setNegativePrefix("-PKG");
        format.setNegativeSuffix("");
        format.setPositivePrefix("PKG");
        format.setPositiveSuffix("");
        format.setMaximumFractionDigits(0);
        this.currency = format.format(Double.parseDouble(_currency));
        return currency;
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        CurrencyEg eg = new CurrencyEg();
        System.out.println("200 -> " + eg.setCurrency("200"));
        System.out.println("-200 -> " + eg.setCurrency("-200"));
}I don't know how valid it is to cast and mess about with the format - but it gives exactly the output you were after:200 -> PKG200
-200 -> -PKG200

To use two presentation variables based on the period selection in OBIEE

Dear All,
I have period prompt in my report, based on the period prompt selection in my report I need to get the start and end dates of the period and apply in the report filter.
For e.g. Period Name selected in the prompt is "2010 - Q1" (For this Period, Period Start Date = 01/01/2010 and Period End Date is 30/03/2010, which is not going to be displayed in the prompts).
How can I get the start and end dates of the period into my report filter. I tried using the presentation variable for the period name, but unable to resolve the requirement.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
Create a report A which will give you the period start date and end date and filter it using the period prompt.
Then filter the main report using the report A start date and end date, using Filter -> Advanced ->Filter based on results of another request .
Add the report A in separate section on the dashboard along with main report and hide report A section.
Thanks,
Vino

OBIEE 11g best practice - when to use the new "presentation hierarchies"

Hi, maybe a dumb question, but what are the rules of thumb for when to expose a presentation hierarchy to end users. Obviously this must be done when using a parent / child hierarchy, as there is no level info that would allow drilling the "10g" way. However, I'm not so sure what the bonuses / drawbacks are when using level based hierarchies.
I have noticed that the SQL seems more complex and less performant when using the hierarchy. As an example, I have a simple dimension (business unit) that has a hierarchy with a total level, and 3 members in the detail level.
If I create this as a 10g style report, I add business unit column, dollar amounts, and a table total (so I can see grand total amounts), the SQL launched looks like this:
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select sum(1) as c1,
sum(T45393.SPEND_AMOUNT) as c2,
T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_CODE as c3
from
DIM_BUSINESS_UNIT T45273,
FACT_SPEND_ANALYTICS T45393
where ( T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_KEY = T45393.BUSINESS_UNIT_KEY )
group by T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_CODE)
select distinct 0 as c1,
D1.c3 as c2,
D1.c2 as c3,
D1.c1 as c4,
0 as c5,
0 as c6
from
SAWITH0 D1
This is simple and efficient, and OBIEE "knows" the grand total can be calculated by simply summing the business unit totals together.
But if I create this as an 11g style report using the presentation hierarchy, with all members selected (so I can get the detailed business units plus the grand total), the SQL is much less efficient, it actually fires two queries - one for the detail level, another for the total level:
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select distinct sum(1) as c1,
sum(T45393.SPEND_AMOUNT) as c2
from
FACT_SPEND_ANALYTICS T45393)
select distinct 0 as c1,
NULL as c2,
'All Business Units' as c3,
1 as c4,
NULL as c5,
D1.c2 as c6,
D1.c1 as c7
from
SAWITH0 D1
AND
WITH
SAWITH0 AS (select sum(1) as c1,
sum(T45393.SPEND_AMOUNT) as c2,
T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_CODE as c3
from
DIM_BUSINESS_UNIT T45273,
FACT_SPEND_ANALYTICS T45393
where ( T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_KEY = T45393.BUSINESS_UNIT_KEY )
group by T45273.BUSINESS_UNIT_CODE)
select distinct 1 as c1,
D1.c3 as c2,
'All Business Units' as c3,
1 as c4,
D1.c3 as c5,
D1.c2 as c6,
D1.c1 as c7
from
SAWITH0 D1
Not only does this fire off two queries - but it doesn't use the existing cache for the "detail" level generated by the "non-hierarchy" query.
So I'm trying to figure out pros and cons of exposing hierarchies for end users. I've come up with the following:
Pros:
- Users can click on the + and - signs to drill / collapse individual members while still keeping all other members on the report
Cons:
- Queries fired at all levels, doesn't seem like it's smart enough to figure out it doesn't need to send a level query to database if all children were already queried
- In 10g if I want to expand all children (i.e. drill down all quarters to the month level) I could just click on the column header. Doesn't appear to be any way to do that using the hierarchical drills, I have to click each and every one to see all the months.
Any insights would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Scott

Hi, no, I haven't tried setting options such as "report based totals" - simply because I wouldn't want an option that requires users to tweak settings on each and every report they create to get stuff working efficiently.
Thanks,
Scott

How to determine which locale uses the specific process

Hi,
I would like to get to know which locale uses the specific process.
I mean that when the process starts it should use the current system locale.
Where I can check that information which locale are used by the running process?
I ask because I would like to make sure that for example when the locale are French or Japanese the process/deamon use the current locale.
Kind regards,
Daniel

Hi,
currently we are in the process of consolidating our databases. One of the neccessary steps is to figure out which user connects to the database at all. That's easy, we implemented a logon-trigger and log the collected information into a separate table.It could have been even easier by turning on the built-in audit feature.
If a user with objects (e.g. tables, views, procedures) exists - but this user never connects to the database - does that automatically mean that these objects are not used at all? No need to say that this is not true. But how can we figure out if a connected user has selected an object of this user?audit would be a good choice.
Our porblem is that we have alot of schemas in our database - but the developers don't know if this schema is not used by an application or not (sad but true).Not sure what developer will do with used/not used application.
To enable auditing would be one choice to figure out if an object was ever used or not. What's wrong in auditing ?
Even though audit may have a footprint on performance, that would probably be less costly than any custom solution.

Use of Presentation Variables in Navigated Report Title

Hi All,
It's regarding the presentation variable in report title. I have value interaction to another report based on Prompted values. But when we click on the value it will go to another report page and giving the results, but the title view is not changing as per the requested value. The title should change dynamically, but it is showing the P.Variables in place of prompted value.
Below are the ways i have used the P.Variables:
@{brand1} at @{customer}, @{sensitivity}% Sensitivity
@{brand1}{'Prod'} at @{customer}{'CVS'}, @{sensitivity}{'15'}% Sensitivity -----(default values here)
Version : OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0
Could you provide me the solution for this issue.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
You can use the presentation variable when you are passing the value from the prompt and filtering after
clicking on the 'GO' or 'APPLY' button. So that assigns one value and is passed in the report in the
page used.
What you need to do is you need to have the 'is prompted' for the column used in the title
or you can make the column is equal to @{pres_var}.
But still if you dont use the columns in the report and you dont want to filter the report with the title columns
then you can use narrative view with all the columns used in the title and have 'is prompted' and make its formatting similar to title view and save as a separate report
And place the narrative view above the report

Using the "Rehearse Slideshow"

Im not sure how to phrase this question, but Ill try to explain what it is I want to do.
Im used to using the "light table" or "navigator" view to look at my slides. When I was doing a presentation on the projectors, I found it hard to view all my slides through the screen that comes up when you're connected to the projector. I was having to flip through all the slides to find the one I needed that corresponded with the music being played (presentation is for church service).
Is there a way to use a navigator or table view when doing the presentation?

"Rehearse Slideshow" is used for rehearsing presentations where you plan on using the Presenter Display, but only have one monitor. For what you want do to, simply set your Mac's Display Preferences to monitor spanning (not mirroring), and use the regular Presenter Display settings to see the presenter info on your computer and the presentation on the projector.

I am a language intructor, can I use Adobe Presenter to work properly on both, English, and Spanish presentations with the same software?

I am a language intructor, can I use Adobe Presenter to work properly on both, English, and Spanish presentations with the same software?

It shouldn't be an issue. Ultimately, Presenter doesn't care what language the content or audio is in, it will deliver it just the same. The only issue I could see causing problems would be the player skin. It has Spanish lables, but they only show on a computer with the OS set to Spanish. If you want the student to view both and English and a Spanish version on the same computer, you may need to have two versions of the language.xml file where you have one that has the desired English lables in the "en" section and one where it has the desired Spanish labels in the "en" section. You would then swap these files in and out of the folder located at,C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Local\Adobe\Adobe Presenter\Themes , as you need to publish an English or Spanish presentation.

Will an Infra-Red Adapter work with a macbook pro retina display so I can use the apple TV remote for presentations?

I have always used the apple TV remote for my presentations. I bought a retina display last year for the betterment of my presentations and now I have to stand near my computer and hit a button to change my slides where as before I used my remote. Will a infra-red adapter work with the apple TV remote in the macbook pro retina display? Love my computer, but very disappointed not to have a remote for presentations that does not need the internet. Does anyone have any ideas?

Yes, I used that and it works great if you have wireless connection. Im looking for a remote that worked like the apple TV remote. My questions is, "Is there a USB infra-red remote that works with mac. I have found this one: Keyspan EZ1 easy presenter. It claims with works with PC and Mac and the reviews are good. Does anyone know anything about it or if it works with retina display macs?

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
and select the Library that you moved. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
Your first option didn't work because you imported one Library to another. Every version and thumbnail is imported like a distinct photo, you lose all your Albums, Keywords etc., the link between Original and Previews is destroyed, the non-destructive editing feature is ruined and so on. In summary: it's mess.
Your second option didn't work because you simply referenced her library on the old machine.
