Adding a flash object behind another object

Hi, using dreamweaver 8, and I want to add a flash object
behind an image.
Basically I have downloaded an image of a retro TV, edited in
Photoshop and taken the screen out. The TV is sitting on a
transparent canvas, so that the screen would be transparent as
well.
I have a flash slideshow that I have created with
simpleviewer. If I insert this to the web page it runs ok, but I
would like to insert it behind the TV image, so it appears it's
coming out of the TV.
Is there any way that I can do this?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, but it will require a bit more work.
Consider a 3 column by 3 row table. Make the flash element
appear in the
middle cell of the table, and have the TV image appropriately
sliced so that
the required images appear in cells 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-1, 2-3,
3-1, 3-2, and
3-3, in effect surrounding the Flash element.
You can do the same thing with background images as well.
I used this on this page -
http://www.neapco.com/n_why-neapco.php
for that main content Flash element.

Selecting an object behind another object

I'm sure there is a simple answer to this. I am trying to place a rectangle behind a text box to make a bit of the text more visible. In other programs there is often a modifier key to select an object that lies behind another object. Does anyone know how to do this in iWeb 09?

Have you tried adding background fill color to the text box with the Inspector/Text/Text pane?

That way there's no shape to have to align with.

Add Tags to Document tool put one object behind another or just deletes page content?

Using Acrobat XI Pro to make documents 508 compliant PDF. I've had a number of issues went using Add Tags to document option, it’s put one object behind another or deleting it all together. Also had issues when trying to adjust the reading order, content is moved or deleted. This PDF is created from InDesing CS5
Anybody know what I'm talking about or have any ideas about how to fix it? Thank

Content should not ever be deleted by adding tags, but it may appear so since - as you note - objects may go into hiding behind other objects. In theory you can bring them out of hiding by rearrange things in the Order pane, but I have much better luck using the Content pane - it provides a much finer level of control. If text is hidden behind a shaded box, for example, I will move the box above the text in the Content order, then usually convert the box to an artifact if it is not one already.
Hope this helps.

Selecting an object that is behind another object

Is there a keyboard command for selecting objects that are behind other objects in the stacking order? or is the only way to select them from layers menu? i'm always selecting the object that is on top of what I want to select, and wonder if there is a keyboard command to "click down" to the object i'm aiming for
thanks!

Yes, LVOOP uses value based references, and when you split the wire to write the owner you created a data copy. The function you're after requires you do use a DVR for all class functions in which case you'll get reference based OOP, which is more familiar coming from text based OOP.
It just so happens that G# uses that approach, take a look at it.

Placing objects behind alpha objects

Really a simple question. (Note I am a new student at dreamweaver. Currently on version CS3)
I have an image (PNG for Alpha) and it is my sites header. I wanted to add objects behind this image. One is a simple gif for the header, and the other will be a flash document area.
The top area will have the logo for the site, whereas the bottom area will have a simple flash scrolling page (For site updates with graphic images)
I'll even include an example:

I think you're approach is a little bassackwards. You cannot use Flash as a background element. Moreover, Flash content always rises to the top.
The image you posted looks more like a Flash Player Skin than a suitable web page background. A common mistake among new web designers is trying to "fit" content precisely over a large, background image or photograph. This seldom works as planned because building for the web is nothing like designing for print. Owing to different browsers, user settings, text and display sizes which you cannot control, the web is an inherently flexible medium. No matter how hard you try, you cannot precisely position content over a big image and expect it to stick.
You would need to slice the image in Photoshop or Fireworks first then reassemble the pieces in your CSS or html table cells. To give you an idea of what I mean, have a look at this basic tutorial.

Design Problem: Object reference another object at different states

Hi,
This is a problem I came across today while developing a simple prototype. Imagine I have a class Boy which has a one-to-many relation with a class Dog.
The class Boy has the following methods: getName(), setName(), getAge(), setAge(), getDogs().
The class Dog has the following methods: getName(), getOwner()
When the application starts I load a Boy from the database as follows:
Boy peter = BoyFactory.loadBoyByName("Peter");
peter.setAge(10);
I then add peter to a static list which can be accessed from everywhere within my application.
At a different stage in the application I want to load a dog (just a dog). So I use the following code:
Dog dog = DogFactory.loadDogByOwnerName("Peter");
The dog object (using JDO or Hibernate) would also have a reference to the Boy object. However when calling the getOwner() method, the boy returned will not be the same boy stored in that static list (I expect the age, which was not persisted in the database, to be different).
Is there a way how when loading the Dog object, since its Owner of type Boy is already loaded in my object model, a Framework such as Hibernate or JDO will use this object rather then re-build a new one.
I am planning to use either Hibernate or some JDO framework and that is why I am asking this question.
If I where going to use some custom made way to load Dog then I would just search if the Owner was in that static list and if yes then set the owner of the dog equal to the object found in the static list.
However I was wondering if there is some design I should consider (study) to handle such a problem.
Thanks and Regards,

Thanks uj :) I had another thought...
I will give another scenario so things are more clear.
Imagine having a class Teacher which has one-to-many relation with a class Student.
If you where programming the classes for these two entities then would you program the student class as follows:class Student{
Teacher t = null;
void setTeacher(Teacher t){...}
Teacher getTeacher(){...}
}ORclass Student{
int teacherId = -1;
void setTeacherId(int tId){...}
int getTeacherId(){...}
}The difference between these two methods is that in the first method, if I wanted to know the teacher of a student then I would only have to call the getTeacher() method while using the second design I would first need to get the teacher Id and then make a database call to actually get the Teacher object (or else get it from a static list where the teacher could be saved.
Personally I prefer the first method since I like to have an object model where objects are directly linked with other rather then linked through some form of id. However I do not know which design is best to use...
Thanks

How can i send a MESSAGE from an object to another object?

i've following code:
class Receiver {
     private String str = "Your message is recieved to me.";
     String sendBack() {
          return str;
class Sender {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          Receiver r = new Receiver();
          System.out.println(r.sendBack());
}I'm confused with the concept of MESSAGE in java. All i gather about it is that when two objects want to communicate with each other they send messages to each other. One object is sender of message and other is its receiver.
Here reciever object 'r' itself performs its method and does not communicate with any other object. How do i change this code into where two objects communicate with each other?

Well the OO theory says that objects comunicate via messages, now that information must be taken as knowledge only, not for programming issues really. What you need to know is that when you need to pass any data from onw object to another you can send them via parameters of defined methods.
For example you have an Object called R of a receiver class and that object needs to pass a String (text message) to another object. you can do it via a method.

[ORA-22905] How to read a field of an object inside another object?

Greetings,
I'm a student and in a current exercise we have to work with the Object Oriented Programming functionality of Oracle.
In the database we defined an object type, which is then considered inside another object type. The thing is, that I cannot read an attribute of the inner object. I've read tens of websites but none of them have helped so far. I've read the PL/SQL User Guide and Reference document also.
The inner object is defined as follows:
create type address_t as object (
        street varchar(50),
        city varchar(50),
        pcode number(5,0)
        );The outer object has an object of type address_t inside it:
CREATE TYPE professor_t as OBJECT(
          code number(2),
          p_name varchar(50),
          address address_t,
          );Also, there is a table named PROFESSORS that stores objects of type professor_t
First of all, with a simple testing SQL statement I can see the data inside the object professor, even the object address_t:
SELECT * FROM PROFESSORS WHERE CODE = 13;returns the following:
CODE    |         NAME      |       ADDRESS
13      |         JOHN     |       MYSCHEMA.ADDRESS_T('FIFTH AVENUE','NEW YORK',12345)The thing is, I want to read the field street of the object address (of type address_t) inside professor (of type professor_t).
I could see everywhere that the way to go is to use point notation, and I've seen examples about the command VALUE, but none of the following SQL statements work:
SELECT VALUE(ADDRESS.STREET) FROM(
SELECT CODE,P_NAME,ADDRESS FROM PROFESSORS WHERE CODE = 13);
SELECT ADDRESS.STREET FROM PROFESSORS WHERE CODE = 13;
SELECT PROFESSOR.ADDRESS.STREET FROM PROFESSORS WHERE CODE = 13;I'd really appreciate if someone could show me how to access the values of the field of the object inside an object.
Thanks in advance,
- David

Great, this worked so far.
It is curious that you wrote 'profesores' but that is the actual name for the variable. I translated everything to english in order to post it here.
So, the statement is:
select value(t).DIRECCION.CIUDAD from profesores t;And It returned:
VALUE(T).DIRECCION.CIUDAD
Valencia
New York
TijuanaAnd, applying the VALUE command to the statement:
select codigo,
nombre,
value(t).DIRECCION.CALLE,
value(t).DIRECCION.CIUDAD,
value(t).DIRECCION.CP
from profesores T WHERE T.CODIGO = 13;Resulting in:
CODIGO                 NOMBRE                                             VALUE(T).DIRECCION.CALLE                           VALUE(T).DIRECCION.CIUDAD                          VALUE(T).DIRECCION.CP

How to 'hide' one stroked-only object behind another?

I'm struggling with something that shouldn't be this difficult!
I'm laying-out a white-only T-Shirt logo (to go on a dark-green T-shirt)
For the sake of simplicity, let's say I have two ovals with no fill, just a white stroke. A small oval overlapping (on-top-of) part of the edge of a larger (underneath) oval. I
Any advice on how to 'hide' the line that's 'behind' the top object?
Thusly: http://i.imgur.com/ZghWTMa.jpg

Actually, I'm not completely sure yet.
Steve's answer assumes screen printing with a single opaque white ink. It won't work if printing to non-opaque composite transfers, or cutting from aplique vinyl, or if you're going to import the two-ellipse artwork for combination with other artwork.
Since you don't know:
1. Draw the two circles with a stroke color and a fill color (ex: black Stroke, white fill) on both.
2. Apply the desired stroke weight.
3. Object>Path>Outline Stroke.
4. Pathfinder palette: Merge.
5. White pointer: Select the two inside regions and delete.
6. You now have a single Compound Path; no overlapping objects, and actual "holes" where you want the substrate to show through. Apply whatever fill color (white, etc.) you need.
But bear in mind what has already been stated: White, unless defined as a Spot Color, does not "print." Think in terms of inks, not in terms of "color". In a program like Illustrator, "white" normally means "no ink." And you always have to know what printing method you are designing for.

Can't grab Object under another Object

Hi,
I hope somebody can help me with this:
In one of my slides I have two highlight boxes which occur at
different times during the slide. One is larger than the other, and
the smaller one fits entirely within the border of the larger one.
The problem is that I can't grab the smaller highlight box to edit
its position because the larger highlight box is always selected no
matter where I click. I can click on the smaller highlight box in
the timeline and double-click to edit its size and position using
screen coordinates, but this is very hit and miss. The only way
I've been able to do it so far is to move the large highlight out
of the way, edit the smaller one's position, and then move the
large one back to its correct location. Is there a way to grab the
smaller highlight box without having to do this?
Thanks,
Eric

Hi Eric
You didn't say, but hopefully you are using Captivate version
2. If so, this will be infinitely easier.
If you are using Captivate 2, just click the Object row in
the column where the eye icon is at the top to hide the object in
front. Then you are free to double-click the highlight box that is
behind.
If it's Captivate 1, you might try right-clicking the one in
front and sending it backward a layer or two. Or, you could cut it
and temporarily paste it to another slide, work with the one you
want, then cut from the other slide and paste back.
Cheers... Rick

FM that can give complete list of objects that another object settles to??

Hi All,
We are fetching Order and its corresponding Partner Object from COBRB table.
For all the partner objects,no.of settled objects are fetched.
All this data is fetched by looping at corresponding internal tables.
We want to know if there is any standard FM to fetch the data mentioned in the above scenario.
This is how the flow goes in our program:
In COBRB:
Objnr OR9D0000100089--> settlement receiver object KSPSEG0000001452

Alright guyz, I guess I'm super stupid but please stay with me.
Here's the whole problem; I'm writing an application that draws rectangles, so this application is a JPanel that has a layout which has two JPanels, first JPanel contains the JButtons and an ActionPerformed function, and the second JPanel has the canvas that I should draw on.
Here's the whole code;
public class animationAll extends JPanel
     public animationAll()
          this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
                 this.add(new animationButtons(), BorderLayout.WEST);
                 this.add(new animationCanvas(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
public class animationButtons extends JPanel implements ActionListener
JButton btnCreate = new JButton("Create");
public animationButtons()
    JButton btnCreate= new JButton("Create");
    btnCreate.addActionListener(this);
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
     if(e.getSource() == btnCreate)
             //here I want to call the draw method in animationCanvas.
} Thank you in advance, and please bare with me on this one

How to fill an object with another object

I have created this watercolor blob shape with the help of a tutorial and I was wondering if it would be possible to use that watercolor blob to fill a shape (let's say a circle). How can I go about doing that? I've attempted using the make pattern function in order to create a fill pattern that way, but it's just not working out for me. Are there any other ways? Any help would be really appreciated!

You are welcome, Amanda.
Cross posting, I was working on this addition:
If you wish to give the top shape a stroke, you may:
3) Click its bounding path with the Direct Selection Tool;
4) Click the Stroke box and the Color box at the bottom of the Toolbox and apply the colour (you can do that through the Color palette).

How can I select an object located under another object?

IS there a shortcut like in QuarkXPress to select an object located under or behind another object?

Press the CMD-key while clicking or use the layers panel.
