Adding effects to pages in APEX

Hi Everyone,
Can anybody help me out regarding how to add effects such as custom images,colors or how to beautify a blank page of an application in APEX as i m new to APEX.
Thanks,
Abhi

Hi Abhi,
the presentation of APEX pages is controlled by a combination of a page template and the css file which it uses. The process of changing these is fairly straight forward but you have to have a solid understanding of HTML and CSS.

Calling existing pages from Apex

Hi,
I am working on Apex as a part of my in-house applications upgrade. At present, the intranet is written on javascript and html.
Is there a way that I can call the existing forms/reports / pages from Apex. I want to achieve that I need not re-write all the logics written, but embed already existing login into Apex screens.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jas

So, you effectively want to embed existing (presumably custom-made) reports within the apex environment - sort of like wrapping your existing intranet in an APEX front-end?
Well, for the relevant page/report, you could create an HTML region and maybe call your existing reports via ajax methods - it would require a bit of custom javascript to achieve though. Namely it would involve invoking your remote HTML page, return the resulting HTML output into your request object, then replacing the relevant elements in the DOM with this output.
I suppose if your particular reports were too fiendishly complicated to entirely re-implement in APEX, this would be the way to go, but I have a feeling that it will require a bit of work to get going properly, indeed you could also potentially lose out on some of the benefits of using APEX (or at least, you'd be stuck with this halfway house implementation forever).
Sorry to be quite general and high-level about this, but there isn't enough detail to work with.

How To Show a Tab/Page in APEX for specific users

Hi,
I have created a page in APEX. I want to restrict the page access to all the users except two or 3 users(Admin users ).How do i restrict the access for a page/tab.Please help.I have enabled SSO authentication for my Application.

i havent tested.. but this should work. i am no expert on these either, just to give you an example.. :-)
JEditorPane ePane = new JEditorPane();
HTMLEditorKit html = new HTMLEditorKit();
ePane.setEditorKit(html);
HTMLDocument htmld = new HTMLDocument();
try{
URL url = new URL("http://hcs.harvard.edu/~undercon/");
InputStream ins = url.openStream();
ePane.setDocument(htmld);
html.read(ins,htmld, 0);
this.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(ePane),BorderLayout.CENTER);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}

Stand alone region not seeing AM definition when added to seeded page...

I have created a stand alone region of type stackLayout that contains a messageLOVInput and a table for employee selection and forwarding to predefined pages. I then created a test page in JDeveloper where I added a FlexLayout region and extended my stackLayout region. This works as desired.
I then wished to test my stand alone region by adding it via personalization to a seeded page. I first copied the files to the appropriate directory in $JAVA_TOP into my custom directory. Then I loadd into the MDS, then bounced apache and OC4J. The controls renders as desired. However clicking upon the messageLOVInput in my stand alone region it opens a window and I get "Cannot find LOV in ... AM". Looking at the About this page link, I see that it is not recognizing my AM even though when I added the item via personalization (SITE LEVEL) I specified it. What am I missing here? This should be reusable functionality that can be added to any page, seeded or custom. But for whatever reason it fails to see my AM and thus cannot find the LOV. I know I didn't get the AM reference wrong during the personalization because it would throw an error if I had (ask me how I know this).
Has anyone ever done this before?

CS4 is adding a blank page, throwing off the printing

I am creating a 40-page booklet to be printed 2-up saddle-stitch
In the Pages layout, it says i have 40 pages in 21 spreads. 1 page on the top is the front cover and 1 page on the bottom is the back cover and 19 double-page spreads inbetween. Pages 2 and 39 are the respective inside covers. Page 1 is aligned on the right and page 40 is aligned on the left. It should be printing fine, I would think.
But in the Print Booklet-Preview Pane, it gives a message that it has added 1 blank page to creat the booklet, and it was added before page one, so I now have no back cover, and my inside covers and page layouts are all wonky now.
I noticed that in the Pages flyout there is a small square to the right of Page 40, where page 41 would be. A small square that I can't highlight.
A few more items of interest, all pages have both Allow Document Pages to Shuffle and Allow Selected Spreads to Shuffle checked.
I am at a total loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Keep in mind that everyone here is a volunteer. Most of the regulars, like myself, drop in at least once a day, as we have time, and offer advice and solutions when we have them.
That said, I saw your post when it first was listed, and saw that you seemed to finding your way, and didn't have anything more to add at that point, as I suspect was the case with a lot of others. I'm sorry it never occurred to me to ask if you had any blank pages in the document, but there was nothing in the original post to suggest that, and including blank pages in a booklet print job is a pretty standard thing to do. If you know enough to have already added blanks to fix the page count, one would presume you also know enough to include them in the print job.
As far as the forum organization, we're about to go into a new version of the forum software, and many of the regulars are looking on that with some trepidation. Most of us actually LIKE the way things are now -- functional and uncluttered with extraneous nonsense like avatars and ratings points -- but it seems much of that is going to be creeping in. An attempt to unify the Adobe and Macromedia forums last year was an utter disaster, and we've all got our fingers crossed it won't happen again, but we'll be living with it no matter what as the Webcrossing contract is up and Adobe has signed on with Jive. You might want to take another look when the changeover is complete.
And, I'll repeat, these forums are probably the BEST source of FREE and accurate expert information on Adobe applications on the planet. You'll find users (and even some Adobe employees) from all over the world with vast experience in some pretty esoteric and specialized techniques. I find I still learn something new almost every week, and I've been making my living with InDesign since version 2.0 was released. I hope you'll come back if you have more questions.

InDesign CC crashes when i adding a new page

Hi together!
When I adding a new page InDesgin CC crashed. I tested it on two PC with Windows 7 and Windows 8. I also created a new document. Always the same problem when adding a new page. Can anyone help me?
Regards
Christian

Having similar problem for second time (different files, different content) in the past two months.
Using IDCC2014 (10.2.0.69) on Mac OS 10.10.3.
When inserting a new frame (whether a newly placed image or an empty frame) with text wrap, text reflows (as expected) but InDesign quits (no warning or error, it just quits).
Inserting a new page and reflowing text also causes ID to quit.
Finding earliest page in document where the problem begins (similar to above reply; in my two cases that is p. 2 and p. 23) and deleting the text frame on that page causes ID to quit.
I work on quite a few books with many elements, but the files in question are just straight text with page numbers (not even running heads) and some illustrations to be inserted.
Saving as IDML does not resolve the issue. Trashing preference does not resolve the issue.
Dragging pages to a new file does not resolve the issue. But if text is copied-and-pasted into a new file then that new file will work fine.
The problem is consistent at various work stations across three different locations/networks.
The only fix has been to delete ALL of the document pages from the affected area on and do the work again, i.e., redraw new pages and apply the chapter opening master pages again. Deleting just the first page where problem is found or the first two pages where problem is found or first four pages where problem is found, etc., causes ID to quit.
In the case of this second file (I don't have the first file onhand right now), it does not have a long save history; it's not from a legacy template file or something like that. Cracking open the IDML file confirms only four saves beyond the initial creation and all in IDCC2014.
Anyone else coming across this problem? Any suggestions?

Adding Effect (e.g shadow ) to image in Fxz files.

Hi
Can somebody show me how can I added Effect like shadow to images in the FXZ files ?
Below is an e.g of FXZ converted by “JavaFX Production Suite” from a svg file produce by inkscape.

Powerpoint convert effects in page

Hello,
I have a problem in converting effect in page. The order theems not to be respected. How can I correct the problem ?
In Acrobat Pro 9, I have try tools > advanced editing > Touchup reading Order > show order Panel.
But in spite of the rigth place in order panel > they didn't go in the correct way.
Is there something to do in the Content Panel ?
Thanks for your answer.

They should print to Acrobat just as they would to any printer. As far as I know, there is no option in PDF Maker or the Adobe PDF printer to change the order. I suspect if you do a print preview, you will find the order messed up there just as in the PDF.

Adding ana archive page with a link in the Navigation bar

I am really new to all this so don't think that I'm a 'tard. I am building a blog on '06 and I like most of what I can do, but I can't figure out a couple of things. My current blog is with Godaddy (pronounced blow-daddy) and with that blog I have archives, recent entries and a calendar. Is there any way that I can duplicate that here? If not, how about just adding a blank page that I use for archives. I know that I already have one but I can't seem to make it visible in the navigation bar. Any help?

No, you have to have a page for it to show up in navbar.
The work around is to use refresh tag to redirect to your email address, here is how:
http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/Test/Front.html
1) make a Front page
2) make a Contact page, link Contact page to Front page's navbar
3) editing Front page: search for href="Contact.html" change to target="_blank" href="Contact.html"
4) copy contents of index.html
5) editing Contact page: replace contents of Contact the contents of index.html
6) search for http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= some page.html" change it to http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=mailto:[email protected]"
7) add the following to the end of Contact.html
<script language="Javascript">

HT2881 Have accidentally added a blank page to resume. How delete it?

Help, please for a newbie.
In Pages, have by accident added a blank page to a resume.
How delete?
Thx

Depends on how the additional page got there. It this at the end of the document of somewhere in the middle?
Assuming it isn't due to peculiar formatting of a text element, you should be able to tap in the top line of the blank page and tap the backspace key until you get back to the preceding text.

Adding a java applet in Apex page

Hello, I am trying to add a java applet to my page. This is what I do. I create an html region with source ;
<applet width=300 height=300 codebase="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#DrawingLines.class"></applet>
and I upload DrawingLines.class file as a static file.
When I run the page I see the java cup sign (with running circle around) but not the applet. Does this have to do anything with the browser security? My knowledge of Java is very limited, but I thought this should work.
George

I just feel like I have to answer this and I hope this is the last post in this thread.
"I find it amusing that you have come to this forum demanding free technical support, and have posted over 200 times, but you yourself have never once answered somebody's question and gotten a helpful or correct reward"
First of all, I have helped people on a few occasions , I don't know what kind of "helpful or correct reward" you are referring to but yes I have given useful answers and gotten "thank you" from a few members.
Second, most of my posts are from year or more ago when I was learning Apex, I have very few posts in the last 6-12 months.
Third, if nobody asks the questions then there will be no answers => there will be no forum. The very existence of this forum is based on people asking question so why should I be ashamed to "demand free technical hellp", isn't this what most people are doing here?
The rest of your post is just words pretty much not saying anything (you might wanna try a carier in the politics) so I am not going to address it.
Have a wonderful day.

Adding "data owner" schema to apex workspace provided unexpected results

Recently I added a "data owner" schema to an existing apex workspace thinking it was a god idea.
As stated...
the schema that I added was a "data owner" schema and I was only suppose to have select capability for apex reporting.
After the schema was added to the workspace I felt I had owner privs on all of the schema objects and
could create objects and insert and update table records.
Needless to say... this is something that I do not want to do with tihs particular "data owner" schema BUT...
this is something that I feel is really good.
i.e. The Object Browser and Model are some excellent examples of the apex tool. :)I would just like to remove/block the insert/update capabilty against this particular schema from my workspace.
Any ideas on how to remove the update capability from my workspace or is it even possible?thanks in advance... :)

Having trouble displaying images on a page in APEX through IE.

I'm trying to conditionally display images (used as toggle buttons) in a tabular report in APEX. This is for our Benefits application where an employee can include or exclude his/her dependents from the plan. For each row, in one column I want to show only 'Include' button if an individual is not already a member, and in another column show only 'Remove' button if already included. I'm using the button images as links and passing information to a page process.
I was able to come up with the SQL query which works perfectly fine in Firefox. But the images won't display in Internet Explorer. Does anyone have any idea how to make this work in IE?
Below is my query. This code will display 'Include in plan' image only if the member is not already added to the plan. If 'Y' is the result of the query, then the member is already included and no image is displayed. Otherwise display the image. Pass the member_id to an application item and process the record in a Before Header process.
select elected_member_id, member_type, last_name, first_name, middle_name, gender,date_of_birth,student_flag,trunc(months_between(sysdate ,date_of_birth)/12) AGE,
decode((select 'Y'
from eben_elected_plan_info epi
     where plan_name not in ('Delta', 'Vision', 'HEALTH_FLEX', 'DEP_FLEX')
     and epi.elected_member_id = emi.elected_member_id
     and transaction_type <> 'END'), null,'<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:70:&SESSION.::::F_APP_MEMBER_INCLUDE:'||elected_member_id||'<img src="&WORKSPACE_IMAGES.include.png"></a>') elected_member_id_include,
elected_member_id elected_member_id_exclude
from eben_elected_members_info emi
where emp_person_id = :f_app_person_id
and member_type <> 'Employee'

I was able to resolve this issue by creating the SQL statement from scratch in IE. It then recognized the images.
