Add-on Images
Our College is sucessfully using ZENworks images to image our workstation.
We are now at the stage where we can image a workstation and apply "add-on images" as done in ConsoleOne through the "common" tab of an application.
When the workstation boots into the PXE (Linux) the base image / workstation image is applied, and then the "add-on image".
However.... The application (add-on image) is not available to the user when they logon, and on some occasions, the application is setup at first logon.
We would prefer the following:
1. Workstation Images master / default / base
2. Additional images / add-ons are applied
3. After the imaging but before a user logs onto the workstation for the first time, we would like all "add-on" images to be installed
Notes:
Workstations are all Windows XP Pro
Server running ZENworks, etc, is a NetWare 6.5
Special Notes:
We have two types of working workstations, some with:
- one partition (OS & Apps) - all newly acquired workstations
- two partitions (the old Symantec Ghost days) - a boot partiton (1) and then the second partition is for Windows and apps etc.
I have noticed that on a system with two partitons part of the NALCACHE is on C: drive and the bulk on D: drive (1st & 2nd partitions).
However we have also tried to use add-on images on single partion workstations as well.
Anyone who would be able to give a hand would be great. We are new to using ZENworks to deploy images (we can get the base image part alright, it is just the add-ons, etc).
Cheers and thanks heaps!

Anthony,
We take a different approach with our lab machines (1300 or so systems) in that we do have the following;
- base image consisting of our operating system which in our case is WinXP in our lab environment
- driver addon image - used to address different model types (40 or so different models) includes the cmdlines.txt file which is called by sysprep to automate the installation of drivers
- remaining application addon images which are impractical to deploy over the network via the Novell Application Launcher. In our case they are typically large installation packages such as ArcGIS, SPSS, NX6, LabWindows, etc..
So.. the process is something like this;
- Machine brings down images (base + drivers + applications)
- Sysprep runs.. installs drivers..
- autologin to desktop.. with an Admin account
- runs an installation script the 'first time' which has all of our installation options for applications. Called within startup folder.
- towards the end of the script we have a reg key which simply sets the GINA back to NWGINA. In our lab environment we purposely give students an admin account, and have deepfreeze installed on the image.
So.. our installation script looks like the attached file.
We do a few weird and wonderful things to customize for our environment, but the process can be modified to fit your purposes.
In terms of Windows Vista and Windows 7 the process is similar although quite different. All of our applications are installed during phase 4 of sysprep rather than after sysprep. Each addon image has it's own installation script.
Not sure if any of this makes sense... but it works for us. Everything is automated. Machines turn on or restart by themselves (WOL/Wake-on-alarm/deepfreeze), they PXE boot, bring down images, install drivers/applications, and in the end students are presented with a Novell login. Reimaging labs is typically between 2am and 7am.

How do I add an image next to a hyperlink in code behind?
I am trying to dynamically display hyperlinks in a div, and I am also trying to add an image to appear right next to each hyperlink. My code is able to add the hyperlinks to the div's but I can't figure out how to add an image to appear next to each hyperlink.
I am not pretty good at doing this in the code behind, which is what the requirements demand. Can anyone please point me in the right direction? I am basically trying to add an image right next to each hyperlink as they are dynamically created. Here is what
my code looks like...
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(siteUrl))
List<string> output = new List<string>();
SPWeb web = site.RootWeb;
SPList list = web.Lists["Applications"];
SPQuery testQuery = new SPQuery();
testQuery.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Title'/><Value Type='Text'>" + MyEditorPartChoice + "</Value></Eq></Where>";
foreach (SPListItem item in list.GetItems(testQuery))
DynLink = new HyperLink();
dynDiv = new HtmlGenericControl("DIV");
lbl = new Label();
environment = Convert.ToString(item["Environment"]);
appUrl = Convert.ToString(item["App URL"]);
lbl.Text = "<br>";
dynDiv.ID = "dynDivCode";
dynDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Height, "40px");
dynDiv.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Width, "100%");
dynDiv.InnerHtml = environment;
DynLink.NavigateUrl = appUrl;
DynLink.Text = dynDiv.InnerHtml;
DynLink.Visible = true;
Controls.Add(DynLink);
Controls.Add(lbl);
I really appreciate the helpI figured it out...just did this.
Image img = new Image();
img.ImageUrl = ;//ImgUrl;
img.Style.Add("Position", "absolute");
Hope that helps someone else who is wanting to do this for the first time. -

How do you add multiple images in Keynote with the same slide formatting?
I want to add 100+ images into Keynote for a photo slideshow, and I want all of the images to be preformatted using the frame/border style I set up in one of the master slides...I don't want the images to fill the entire slide, and the goal is to not have to touch every slide and every image. I know I can add images individually using the media button on the photo placeholder and the photo will fill the frame I have created, but I want to do this for all images at one time. Is there a way to do this when adding the images into the presentation, or a way to format them all at once after adding them to the presentation. Someone please help, I have looked everywhere and have had no luck finding an answer!!! I accidentally made this happen last week when I was playing around but I don't know what I did and I can't seem to duplicate the results. I feel certain there has to be a fairly simply solution, something I am missing. I am working in the most recent version of Keynote (ver 6) and on Maverick OS.
tspencer74, I have exactly the same problem and it's driving me nuts! I'm heartened that you managed to actually do this even by accident as I've not managed to make it happen at all in spite of much fiddling. So, the big question, did you find the answer? If so can you tell me what it is please?

How can I add a button to add multiple image in PDF from using adobe acrobat pro?
I have to create a pdf form using Adobe Acrobat Pro X.
In this form I want to add a button where I can add multiple images to the field.
I have tried using javascript event.target.buttonImportIcon(); and successfully add an image, but when I want to add the 2nd image it automatically overwrites the previous one.
Is there any way to solve this issue? I would like to have a form where I can add a lot of images in it. It is possible in word, but we really have to use adobe.
ThanksHi thanks for your answer.
I can add multiple button, but if there are 10 images that I wan to add, then I have to create 10 buttons.
Moreover, the pictures will be placed on top of each other and it means that you cannot see it clearly. -
How do I add multiple images into one file?
I'm sure this is something that's been covered in another post (or even in the help portal) but I think my wording in my search terms are not correct or... I don't know, because I just can't find what I'm looking for.
I want to know how to add multiple images into one file/one image, both horizontally and/or vertically. To give you an idea of what I mean, check out :
http://www.best10apps.com/apps/comic-story,531596060.html
If you scroll down, you'll see a heading entitled : Screenshots of Comic Story. Notice how there's 3 pictures (divided by borders). 2 of those pictures are side by side, and 1 of them is below the first 2 pictures.
I want to know how to add different pictures/images and put them into one picture.One way is to create template PSD files and populate them with your images using Photoshops scripts.
Photo Collage Toolkit UPDATED June 12, added Picture Package Support via PasteImageRoll and BatchPicturePackage scripts.
The package includes four simple rules to follow when making Photo Collage Template PSD files so they will be compatible with my Photoshop scripts.
There are eleven scripts in this package they provide the following functions:
TestCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to test a Photo Collage Template while you are making it with Photoshop.
CollageTemplateBuilder.jsx - Can build Templates compatible with this toolkit's scripts.
LayerToAlphaChan.jsx - Used to convert a Prototype Image Layer stack into a template document.
InteractivePopulateCollage.jsx - Used to interactively populate Any Photo Collage template. Offers most user control inserting pictures and text.
ReplaceCollageImage.jsx - use to replace a populated collage image Smart Object layer with an other image correctly resized and positioned.
ChangeTextSize.jsx - This script can be used to change Image stamps text size when the size used by the populating did not work well.
PopulateCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to Automatically populate a Photo Collage template and leave the populated copy open in Photoshop.
BatchOneImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Collage templates that only have one image inserted. The Collage or Image may be stamped with text.
BatchMultiImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with images in a source image folder. Easier to use than the interactive script. Saved collages can be tweaked.
BatchPicturePackage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with an image in a source image folder
PasteImageRoll.jsx - Paste Images into a document to be print on roll paper.

How can I add an image to a dowload, specialy if I bougth from I tunes?
Hello
How can I add an image to a dowload, specialy if I bougth from I tunes?That is not quite right. The image must be in a directory that is under the web server's view. JSP has nothing to do with images, the browser loads images separately after parsing the HTML results to find out what images it has to load. The images must be in a place that is servable by the web server being used.
If you were just using Tomcat as a web server, then you would have a web application directory "myapp". The images need to go under "myapp" or in any subdirectory, except the WEB-INF directory, which is a special case. -
How do I add an image specified by a URL to an application?
I am building a Java FAQ page for my college and I am stumped by this question: How do I add an image specified by a URL to an application?
I am trying to do something like this:
try {
ImageIcon logoImage = new ImageIcon(new URL("http://www.gcodes.net/tutor/javafaq/Java%201130%20FAQ/images/comments.png"));
} //end try
catch(MalformedURLException e) {
}//end catch
//add image to JLabel
topLogoHolder.setIcon(logoImage);I've looked through my Java textbooks and done many google searches. Please help.
-MattAre you having problems with logoImage being undefined?
Because, as you have it, logoImage only exists within the 'try' block.
Either call topLogoHolder.setIcon(logoImage) within the 'try' block, or declare the logoImage outside the 'try' block and set it within the 'try' block.
I'd say you might as well call setIcon within the 'try' block, if you don't need the logoImage value elsewhere. Because, if you get that exception that you are catching, your ImageIcon won't be initialized right, anyway. -
How can I add an image to a project and change it at runtime?
I'm using JBuilder6 and I thought I saw a control to add images but I can't find it. I also wanted to be able to change the control at runtime. Also how should I specify the path so it knows how to use it? I hate to hard code one in. Since this is probably gonna be ported to other OS does Java have a way around this? I was going to put the images into my project's directory. For me to be able to just include the file w/the extension do I need to put it in the src folder or will the main directory be accessible?
To add an image, or other source file with JBuilder, you have a button call "Add to project", his icon is a folder with a green cross.
To call the Image os independant, I sugest you to put your images in a folder "image" in your project folder. Then to call them, you could use this :
image=new ImageIcon(AClass.class.getResource("image"+java.io.File.separator+imageName));Where AClass is a class of your project, in general, the class where you call getRessource;
"image" is the name of the under folder where are the image in your project folder;
imageName is a string with the name of the file witch contains the image, for exemple : "my image.gif"I hope I help you.

How to add an image or static text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report
Post Author: rtutus
CA Forum: General
Hi, I use Crustal 11.0.
I have a cross Tab. I display the items on the left column and the months horizontally, the items are grouped by category field. The values are the sum of quantities are displayed for each month. Like this:
Items Jan Feb March .....................Total
Category 1
Item11 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item12 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item13 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
Category 2
Item21 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item22 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item23 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
Category 3
Item31 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item32 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item33 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
The problem, I want to add a page header for each page of the report.
When Crystal reports first displays my cross-tab in the designer, CR displays the cross tab in the Report header section. I d like to add text or image for each page and not only at the begining of my Cross-Tab.
If I just add an image or text at the top of the report designer, which is my report header, I get the image or text only on the begining of the 1st page of my report but never in the other following pages.
If I try to work around the problem and move the cross Tab to a group section instead, and then put the Image in the group header, I get what I want, but the problem is that:
The columns header: Jan, February....December are displayed for each group of my report and not only in the beginning of the report. I get something like this:
Items Jan Feb March .....................Total
Category 1
Item11 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item12 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item13 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
Items Jan Feb March .....................Total
Category 2
Item21 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item22 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item23 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
Items Jan Feb March .....................Total
Category 3
Item31 val11 Val12 Val13 Total values
Item32 val21 Val22 Val23 Total values
Item33 val31 Val32 Val33 Total values
You see the months get duplicated. Any way, my real need is to add an image or text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report.
Thanks a lot for your help.Hi Divya,
you could do for example in the wdDoInit() of the view
wdContext.currentContextElement().setPicture("picture.gif");
Now you assign this context variable to the Tab using the Tab_header's imageSource-Property. When you click on its value column, you see a button with three dots on it. If you click on this button, you will get all context nodes and attributes for this View. Usable variables are clearly marked, you now choose the one named Picture or what ever name you prefer to use. But it must correspond to the one set in the wdDoInit.
I think setting a picture (not necessarily for the tab-page) is done in one of the excellent tutorials. If you are a newcomer I strongly recommend doing some of the tutorials. I have learned tremendously from them.
Hope this helped

How can add a images file to anothere image file

know we want add another image file in to a current image file (just append)
at end .
i was tried with following code below
i was read the previous(Old) image content from the data base and placed into c:\\ReArchive\\test_content.tiff
ResultSet rs2=dbBean.getSQLRows("select binarycontent from ContentVersion where contentindex="+IndexValue+"");
byte[] bTempData_content=new byte[65536];
while(rs2.next()){
File f = new File("c:\\ReArchive\\test_content.tiff");
f_content.delete();
f_content.createNewFile();
FileOutputStream dest_contentVersion = new FileOutputStream(f_content);
while(rs2.next()){
InputStream is_content=rs2.getBinaryStream("Binarycontent");
nActualRead_content=is.read(bTempData_content,0,65536);
while(nActualRead_content>0)
dest_contentVersion.write(bTempData_content,0,nActualRead_content);
nActualRead_content=is.read(bTempData_content,0,65536);
Then i was took New image file from data base and place in to c:\\ReArchive\\test.tiff");
int nActualRead=0;
ResultSet rs1=dbBean.getSQLRows("select * from Object_Store where Barcode_ID='"+strBar_Code+"'");
byte[] bTempData=new byte[65536];
File f = new File("c:\\ReArchive\\test.tiff");
f.delete();
f.createNewFile();
FileOutputStream dest = new FileOutputStream(f);
while(rs1.next()){
InputStream is=rs1.getBinaryStream("Obj_Content");
nActualRead=is.read(bTempData,0,65536);
while(nActualRead>0)
dest.write(bTempData,0,nActualRead);
nActualRead=is.read(bTempData,0,65536);
then i tried add two images by converting InputStream to String and i am trying add to images
but i was failed ,i think i am in not correct way , how can i solve this problem

We typically see this when an organizations IT department is blocking the upload of images. Are you working on this at work? If so, can you try adding the image outside your companies network?

How can I add new images to a saved book in Lightroom 4? Help please!
As the title suggests, I have created a saved book in LR4. I saved it not because I had finished but because I wanted to protect my work to date. Now I cannot add new images, although I can work with (move and remove) the exisintg images in the book.
I'm new to LR and can't help but feel that I'm missing something obvious. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
GrahamGraham, switch to Grid view and drag the new photos to the book collection, which you'll find in the Collections panel. Then flip back to the Book module and you'll find the photos sat there in the Filmstrip waiting to be added to the book design.

How to add an image/graphic to a form webpage?
Dear All,
When we execute our Oracle Forms application, it opens in a webpage with a white background. This looks too bland.
Is there a way we can add an image/graphic to the webpage to improve its look and feel? Please suggest.
Thanks,
AmitHello,
You have two tags in the /forms/server/formsweb.cfg file to put images in the background:
splashScreen=no
background=noreplace the NO value by a .GIF or JPG existing file name on the server.
You can also hide the blank page (when separate frame=yes) as soon as it dosplays with the following in your concerned section:
HTMLbodyAttrs=onLoad='javascript:self.moveTo(2000,2000)'Francois
