Adding a JSeperator in between two panels

Hi
I want to add a JSeperator in between two panels.
Just wondering to do this do I just say p.add(the seperator) or do I just have to insert the Seperator using section of the GridBagLayout manager Im using!?

you can add to the content pane, in between the other panes, if they have been add to the cp, or if there is a main pane add to it, where ever the other panes are located....

You might check out the Drag and Drop tutorial, especially the section Data Transfer with a Custom Component.
Here's another approach using an overlayed non–opaque JPanel as a transfer device. The image label is transfered to the (fake) glass pane and dragged. On mouse release it is added to the JPanel below. Although I didn't build in any boundry–checking it would be a useful thing. Mostly to ensure a suitable drop target and component location in it.

Please help: how do you pass events between two panels?

hi
this is probably very simple but so far no one of you could help me. i checked the tutorials but there's nothing. i've got a panel in a panel. when a child-panel-button is clicked i want to notify the parent which then exchanges the child panel with another.
another question
if i use paint() in a swing program, most components don't get displayed. why? paint() would be a useful loop to make user events visible.
thanks

code:
class PnlParent extends JPanel implements ActionListener
add( pnlChild1Obj ) ;
add( pnlChild2Obj ) ;
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e )
//if button of pnlChild clicked then exchange pnlChild
// the invisible button method in PnlParent does not work
// i get a NullPointExeption, maybe i cannot reference an outer panel button
// from an inner panel
remove( pnlChild2Obj ) ;
add( pnlChild3Obj ) ;
class PnlChild1 extends JPanel implemts ActionListener
add( btn1 ) ;
add( brn2 ) ;
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e )
class PnlChild2 extends JPanel
add( text )
class PnlChild3 extends JPanel implemts ActionListener
add( btn3 ) ;
add( brn4 ) ;
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e )
}

On an iPad, how do I insert a blank page between two using iWork Pages?

I realize how many times I used the word 'pages' in the question, I was unable to think of a less confusing way to word it. :)
I am using an iPad with Pages loaded on it. All software is up-to-date. I have downloaded a few templates apps to use with it. I have figured out how to add a blank page to the end of the document (by hitting enter at the base of the previous page before it). However, I would like advice or assistance adding a blank page between two existing pages. The other "trick/work around" is not effective. I'd even appreciate learning how to change the order of the pages so I may place the blank sheet where I need it.
Hope this makes sense. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Position the cursor where desired by touching the screen. In the selection bubble that appears, i.e., Select, Select All, Paste, Insert, choose Insert and from the insert menu choose Page Break. Two Page breaks will produce a blank page.

Using Lightroom Cloud to Sync Catalog Between Two Machines

I have use of so many cloud services including the 20gb that Adobe gives me. Is there a way i can sync my catalog on the cloud so that i can have all my metadata on both my laptop and desk top? I also have 300gb of cloud storage though Copy. I would just like some recomendations on how best to go about it. Thanks

Hi Pat,
Using Lightroom Cloud to Sync Catalog Between Two Machines
If you’re running Lightroom on a laptop during your location shoots, you might want to take all the edits, keywords, metadata, and of course the photos themselves, and add them to the Lightroom catalog on your studio computer. It’s easier than it sounds: basically, you choose which catalog to export from your laptop, then you take the folder it creates over to your studio computer and import it.
You need to decide whether you want to export a folder (all the imported photos from your shoot), or a collection (just your Picks from the shoot). In this case, we’ll go with a collection, so go to the Collections panel and click on the collection you want to merge with your main catalog back in your studio. (If you had chosen a folder, the only difference would be you’d go to the Folders panel and click on the folder from that shoot instead. Either way, all the metadata you added, and any edits you made in Lightroom, will still be transferred over to the other machine.)
Please refer to http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1930499 for more details.
Thanks!

Unable to find line break between two lines in attachment file.

Dear all I will be very great full if someone help me out,
I am trying to send mail through SMTP server with an attachment of oracle report, but I am unable to find line break between two lines, when I down load the attachment from mail and open attach.txt file by double click on it. Next line starts right after previous line ends, it should starts with new line.
In order to send an attachment file, I am reading source file line by line and put MIME protocol’s attachment instance, contain of source file is being properly written into target file if I open that attachment on cmd prompt.
Following code may help you to understand the case.

Additional data on relationship between two objects

Hi
We have a requirement to capture additional data on a relationship between two objects. The data to be captured are custom fields that are unique to the relationship between the objects and not specific to either of the objects.
We created a new object type and related it to the position (S)and the job (C) object. In the customising (Personnel Management/Personnel Development/Basic Settings/Maintain Relationships there is an option to set up Additional Data. There are however several restrictions (e.g. the substructure has to be in T77AD). When you set up an existing substructure (e.g. PAD22) and screen (e.g. 3000), it works really well, however we have not been able to get this to read our own substructure and screen (since there is no customer include on HRP1001 and the 'Additional data' button seems to go to MP100100 to find the screen).
My question is two fold:
a) Is this an allowed customisation (e.g. can we create our own substructure, screen and Query string)? And if so, how does the data get into T77AD (since SAP recommends that data should not be added to this table)? and
b) Is there any documentation on this (thus far I have only received info on how to enhance infotypes which I don't think is relevant???)?
If this can not be maintained is there any other suggestions on how to deal with this scenario?
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Regards
Liezl

Hi everyone
Thanks for everyone who tried to assist us with this. I am happy to report that our in-house guru's have found the answer. So, for anyone who is interested:
In programme MP100100 you have a screen 6000 which is a customer enhancements screen. We set up two in-house function modules for the PBO and PAI with its own screen and added an append structure to PAD31 to add the fields required. In the configuration, we then specified PAD31 as the substructure with screen 6000 and then also specified our own PBO and PAI function modules. The parameters required for screen 6000 is set up within our own customer screens.
Hope this will be helpful to someone - it certainly seemed to open up some doors for us!

How do I set Time Machine to alternate between two attached external drives (so that if one fails I will have a separate backup to use)?

Hi Everyone.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Right off the bat let me say I am using Mavericks 10.9.1 on a 2011 Macbook Pro and using all Lacie external hard drives.
I am trying to get Time Machine to alternate between two attached external hard drives, trying to be safe in case one of the backup drives itself fails.
I have both drives set in Time Machine.
From what I gather Time Machine should by default alternate between drives when backing up (I would assume it does one big initial backup on each then subsequent backups are just changes).
But this is not how it seems to be working and I cannot find a straight answer despite much Googling and Foruming
Unfortunately it seems to only be backing up to "External Hard Drive 1".
There have been 4 backups since I set it up, all on "External Hard Drive 1", even though "External Hard Drive 2" is also attached and set in Time Machine.
I manually clicked "Back Up Now" and it started to work on "External Hard Drive 2" (like I want it to) for a minute but it appears to have stopped and gone back to backing up to "External Hard Drive 1".
Am I missing something? Does Time Machine only move on to another disk when the first one runs out of space? Do I have to turn one off in order to force it to back up to the other drive (that would be less convenient of course)?
I am hoping that I am missing something and that it will just alternate between the two. Otherwise it is not the most comforting and thorough backup system as I had hoped when I purchased the additional external hard drive.
I have a 1TB drive and a 500gig partition on another drive, both dedicated to backups (my Macbook HD is 475gig). It will take awhile for each to fill up and who knows what could happen during that time. Having Time Machine alternate between hard drives would be a nice small bit of security if the worst happened.
I realize that there are tons of other options for backing up but I just want to use Time Machine if I can.
Again thank you for your help!

You cannot use Time Machine in that way. I'm not sure where you heard that Time Machine alternates between drives automatically. What you can do is create a mirrored RAID array for the backup. This automatically duplicates whatever is on one drive onto the other drive.
Both drives must be the same size, and prefereably, exactly the same make and model. RAIDs can be configured using OS X's Disk Utility.
RAID Basics
For basic definitions and discussion of what a RAID is and the different types of RAIDs see RAIDs. Additional discussions plus advantages and disadvantages of RAIDs and different RAID arrays see:
RAID Tutorial;
RAID Array and Server:
Hardware and Service Comparison.
Hardware or Software RAID?
RAID Hardware Vs RAID Software - What is your best option?
RAID is a method of combining multiple disk drives into a single entity in order to improve the overall performance and reliability of your system. The different options for combining the disks are referred to as RAID levels. There are several different levels of RAID available depending on the needs of your system. One of the options available to you is whether you should use a Hardware RAID solution or a Software RAID solution.
RAID Hardware is always a disk controller to which you can cable up the disk drives. RAID Software is a set of kernel modules coupled together with management utilities that implement RAID in Software and require no additional hardware.
Pros and cons
Software RAID is more flexible than Hardware RAID. Software RAID is also considerably less expensive. On the other hand, a Software RAID system requires more CPU cycles and power to run well than a comparable Hardware RAID System. Also, because Software RAID operates on a partition by partition basis where a number of individual disk partitions are grouped together as opposed to Hardware RAID systems which generally group together entire disk drives, Software RAID tends be slightly more complicated to run. This is because it has more available configurations and options. An added benefit to the slightly more expensive Hardware RAID solution is that many Hardware RAID systems incorporate features that are specialized for optimizing the performance of your system.
For more detailed information on the differences between Software RAID and Hardware RAID you may want to read: Hardware RAID vs. Software RAID: Which Implementation is Best for my Application?

How to keep playlists in sync between two computers?

I have a MacBook Pro and a regular desktop Windows 7, and I have all of my music on both of them. However, I constantly keep adding new songs to different playlists all the time, and this makes it hard to keep everything in sync with both computers and my iPod because I usually sync from my Mac.
Right now I export the updated playlists on one of the computers and import it on the other, but it's quite the hassle just to keep some playlists in sync. I tried using home sharing, but it just keeps downloading duplicates everytime I try to import, I would've thought it was smarter by just adding the new songs but appearently it isn't.
So, anyways, is there any easy way for me to automatically keep playlists in sync between two computers?

I am indeed subscribed to iTunes Match. Are you saying that with Match, it will sync my playlists? I will have to check this when I get home. That would really be a nice surprise!
I sync my iPod to iTunes on my Windows 7 box, but use iTunes on my Mac for synching my iPhone 6 and iPad 2. Normally, I'd be modifying a playlist on the Win 7 box, adding or rearranging songs. However, occasionally, I might download a song to the iPhone while out and about. Then, when I'm back at the Mac, I'd do a sync and add that new song to one of the playlists. Should Match then be keeping the playlists on the two machines in sync?
As for the library replication, I had to do that when I first signed up for Match. I was WAY over the 25k song limit, so I made a copy of the library, and in that copy deleted enough songs to get me under the limit. Also discovered scripting and did some really neat things with that tool. Still have the option when I start iTunes to use the old library, just in case there's something there I need to copy to the smaller lib.

Inserting a clip between two clips

I'm trying to insert a clip between two clips yet still having everything from all V/A 1,2,3,4,etc. layers to move along with whatever clip is moved down the line. Everyone keep saying: Use the ctrl key! but all that does is indeed move some of it down but it cuts bits of the video in the process. I'm not sure how to solve this. I simply want to drag and drop an item between two clips and not cut or mess up any additional V layers.

You can load a title into the Source Monitor by dragging it there from the Project Panel. But you can also use the insert command directly from the Project panel, via either the context menu or the same shortcut.
Be aware that if the sequence has In/Out points set, then the Insert & Overwrite commands will insert the selected source into that range. This is known as 3-point or 4-point editing (depending on whether you have both in & out points set in both the source and the sequence). If In/Out points are not set in the sequence, then the source is inserted at the playhead's position in the Timeline.
Also, source patching controls which tracks the clip is placed on. If you're not familiar with source patching, this tutorial video is worth watching.

Passing multiple parameters between two report portlets on the same page

Hi,
I want to pass multiple parameters between two report portlets on the same page.
I have been succussful passing a single parameter between two portlets. The
following are the steps :
(1) Created first report based on the query
SELECT htf.anchor('http://192.168.0.84:7778/servlet/page?&_pageid=97&_dad=portal30&_schema=portal30&_mode=3&dept_code='||DEPTNO,DEPTNO) Department, ename FROM EMP;
(2) Created 2nd report
select * from EMP where DEPTNO = :dept_code
(3) Added pl/sql code before display page on the 2nd report
portal30.wwv_name_value.replace_value(
l_arg_names, l_arg_values,
p_reference_path||'.dept_code',portal30.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(nvl(g
et_value('dept_code'),10)));
(4) Created a page and added these reports as portlets.
Sofar it works fine for one parameter (deptno) . Now I want to add one more
parameter say empno to my first report query and would like to pass both the
parameters deptno and empno to the 2nd report. Please tell me how to pass multiple parameters ?
Thanks
Asim

Hi,
You will have to do the same thing
The select will be like this
SELECT htf.anchor('http://toolsweb.us.oracle.com:2000/servlet/page?_pageid=97&_dad=mb&_schema=mybugs&_mode=3&dept_code='||DEPTNO||'&empno='||empno,DEPTNO) Department,ename
FROM EMP
In the additional plsql code do the same for empno like this
mybugs.wwv_name_value.replace_value(l_arg_names,l_arg_values, p_reference_path||'.dept_code',mybugs.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(nvl(get_value('dept_code'),10)));
mybugs.wwv_name_value.replace_value(l_arg_names,l_arg_values, p_reference_path||'.empno',mybugs.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(get_value('empno')));
Thanks,
Sharmila

N bridge between two 1252an in bridge mode at 5GHz

I've read in some of the cisco documentation on the 1250 series that root bridge or non root bridge modes are "not tested". They don't say "not supported". I have a client that could use a high bandwidth link between two buildings that are 100' or so apart. The fiber link has already been busted twice. Heavy heavy trucks kill the ground concrete. I have configed a 54Mbps solution with two 1242G's and some cisco yagi's. But, if an N bridge is possible with two 1252AG's, and go faster than the 54Mbps..I'd go with that setup.
Cisco documentation says the bridge modes show up in the 1252 webgui and are selectable. They just end it with "not tested".
Any thoughts?

It became supported in recent versions of the 1250 IOS.
|With this feature, the Cisco Aironet 1140 and 1250 Series can be configured for both access point and bridge functions. Bridging support on 802.11n access points offers added performance, reliability and throughput for basic wireless LAN coverage, wireless LAN coverage with wireless backhaul, and more traditional bridging applications.|

Better estimation of phase difference between two signals with variable frequency!

Hello LabView Gurus,
Being a power engineer and having just a little knowledge of signal processing and labview, I have been pulling my hair out for the last couple of days to get a better estimation of phase difference between two signals.
We have two analog voltage signals; 1. sine wave (50Hz ± 1Hz) and 2. a square wave with exactly half of sine wave frequency at any time.
At the starting point of operation (and simulation/acquisition) both signals will have no phase difference. However, the square wave's frequency changes unpredictably for a just a few millisecond but then it gets synchronized with sine wave's frequency again. This means that the square wave will be phased out from its original position. The task of the labview is to find the phase difference between the two signals continuously.
My approach to determine the phase difference is to measure the time when sine wave crosses zero amplitude and the time when the very next square wave changes amplitude from zero volts to +ve voltage (I have a 0.5volts threshold just to avoid any dramas from small line noise). The difference between these times is then divided by the time period and multiplied by 360 to get this phase difference in angles.
As this part is just a small block of a big project, I can only allow 5000Hz sampling rate each for both signals. I read 500 samples (which means I read data from 5 cycles of sine wave and 2.5 cycles of square wave).
Now the problem is, as long as the frequency of sine wave stays constant at exactly 50Hz, I get a good estimation of the phase difference but when the frequency changes even a little (and it will happen in the real scenario i.e 50Hz ± 1Hz and the square wave's frequency is dependent of sine wave's frequency), the estimation error increases.
I have attached my labview program. From front panel, you can set the phase of square wave (between -180 and 0) and you should see the labview's calculated phase in the indicator box named 'Phase'. Then you can press 'Real Frequency' switch that would cause the frequency to change like it would in real operation.
You can observe that the estimation error increases after you push the button.
All I need to do is to reduce this estimation error and make it as close to the actual phase difference as possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am using LabView 2009 for this task.
The application is for electric machines and the stability/performance of machines under different faults.
Thank you for reading this far!
Regards,
Awais

Basic math gives me a bit of pause on this approach. You are sampling at 50 times the frequency of interest so you get 50 samples per cycle. your phase resolution is 1/50th cycle or 7.2 degrees +/- noise. You will need to samlpe faster to reduce phase resolution or average multiple readings (at a time cost that is signifigant)
Jeff- (Hardly Working)
I am sampling at 100 times the sine wave's frequency and 200 times the square wave's frequency. Increasing the sampling rate completely solves my problem. But since I am acquiring several other inputs, I cannot afford a sampling rate higher than 5kHz.
F. Schubert wrote:
I'm not a signal processing expert, but here my basic understanding.
If you simulate sampling with 5kHz and a frequency of 50 Hz (and both are 'sync' by design), you always get an exact 5 periods. Any variation of your signals frequency gives you a propability to get 4 or 6 'trigger' events. That's an up or down of 20%!
The one measure to reduce such problems is using 'window functions'. They don't fit your current approach (counting instead of a DSP algorithm), so this needs to be reworked as well.
My approach would be to use the concept of a Locki-In amplifier. You need to phaseshift your ref-signal by 90°. Then multiply your measurement signal with the ref signal and the phase shifted ref signal. The obtained values for x/y coordinates of a complex number. Calculate the theta of the complex number (with the LV prim). Feed this in a low pass filter.
The trick on this is, that the square wave has harmonics in it, in this you are interested in the second harmonic which is the sine wave.
To get rid of the effect that the sync between sampling rate and ref signal frequency gives an error, you then can use the window I mentioned above (place it before the lock-in).
For a design that really plays well, use a producer-consumer design pattern to get the calculations done in parallel with the DAQ.
I suggest you to check on wikipedia for some of the keywords I mentioned. Go also for the external links which lead to great tutorials and AppNotes on the signal processing basics.
Sorry, it's not a simple solution I offer and we will have quite some conversation on this forum if you follow this path. Maybe someone else knows a simpler way.

My latest community nugget on producer/consumer design
My current blog: A journey through uml
An interesting view. the sine wave can indeed be looked as a second harmonic of the square wave. I will implement your idea and get back to you as soon as I get some results. But since I have very limited knowledge of signal processing, it might take me a while to get my hear around the solution you mentioned.

Month filter between two ranges based on user response inIDT

Hi,
I am working on SAP BO4.0.I have a requirement of creating a month filter on a date which will be between two ranges.The first range is the user response and the second range will be 6 months added to that user response.For eg:-If a user enters 1 as the response for month prompt then the date will be filtered between 1 and (1+6)=7.The database used is SAP HANA.
Please let me know if further clarifications are required.
Any help on this will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Riddhi ,
afaik this is not doable in UDT/IDT .Only thing we can make is to run the report for last month by using magic dates concept.
Check below logic if it helps.
For a requirement to run a report for fiscal year starting date to last month if nothing selected .
@Select(Time\Yr-Mth Key) between@Prompt('From Date','A','Time\Month / Year',mono,primary_key,,{'JUL 2013'}) and
(case when @Prompt('To Date','A','Time\Month / Year',mono,primary_key,,{'JAN 1999'})='JAN 1999' then to_char(add_months(sysdate,-1),'YYYYMM')
else
@Prompt('To Date','A','Time\Month / Year',mono,primary_key,,{'JAN 1999'}) end)
This is on Oracle Database.
When you run webi report
From Date : JUL 2013 (fiscal year start date)
To date : JAN 1999( without changing this you can refresh the report for last month , else it'll refresh for selected month)
