Adding New File Type/Editor (CS6)

There are a number of posts around editing Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml but those posts don't seem to be solving my issue.
I have 40+ Dreamweaver users and I'd like to be able to send them one or two configuration files that add new extensions ALONG WITH primary and secondary associations for editing.
For example, I need to add the extension for PowerPoint (.pptx) and associate PowerPoint as the editor. I want to do this for all Microsoft Office file extensions - associate the extension with the default editor.
As a test, I've changed both Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml in my local user folder, but the only result I get is that the .pptx file extension in the list of extensions Dreamweaver can Save As...
That's not what I'm looking for.
When manually adding an extension and a primary (or secondary) editor in the DW preferences File Type / Editor panel, I get the result I want... double-clicking the file from the Files palette opens the file in the specified editor AND the file extension (.pptx) does NOT show up in list of extensions in the Save As... dialog.
I have about 10 different extensions/app associations I'd like to add. Is there someplace else I should be looking?

How to add support for new file type.

Using the ESDK, I would like to add support for new file type ( a new extension). this new extension will function like any other non visual code editor but will have specific syntax highlighting, code folding and explorer.
I am trying ot figure out if I need to create a new editor or use existing JDeveloper code editor and add support for new file type. Does anyone have a high level outline on how to do this using the ESDK that is specifically targeted at adding new file type support for a text based code editor?
I have looked at the Samples and keep going in multipe directions. It would be cool if there was an example that was how add syntax higlighting for new file type.
Thank you

Brian, thank you. I looked at this extension and it answered a lot of questions for me. I was going in the right direction but needed a little help and bost of confidence, this is just what I needed. I created the LanguageSupport, LanguageModel, Addin, Node and TextDocument that are specific to the new file type. I was getting hung up on how to hook this into the JDevelpoer editor. I keep thinking I have to create a custom editor but it looks like I don't have to and it looks like I can associate this file support with the editor framwork, for version 10.1.3.2, with the following in the Addin Initilize() method.
Recognizer.mapExtensionToClass(MY_EXTENSION, MyNode.class);
CodeEditor.registerNodeType(MyNode.class, MY_EXTENSION);
LanguageModule.registerModuleForFileType(new MyLanguageModule(), MY_EXTENSION);
I have done this but still not able to recognize the new file type.
At this point, I just want to be able to recognize the new file and display it's associated icon or display a messare to the message log. I put a System.out.println("test") in the Initilize() method of my addin. then I registered MyAddin in the extension.xml. JDeveloper sees this new extension and it is loaded but I have not been able to show the test message or display the new icon when I open the new file type.

To add new file type in SharePoint

Hi,
I am trying to add new file type for sharepoint site like MSWord, PDF etc.,
Are there any ways to create new file types in SharePoint? My requirement is to create a file type for AutoCAD drawings (.dwg format).
Please note, we are using SharePoint 2007 version!
Thanks

Browse to the Central Admin site
Select the Operations tab
Under the Security Configuration section, click the link for
Blocked file types
Select the Web Application that you would like to modify from the drop down list
Each blocked file extension displayed in the list is blocked by SharePoint. To enable the blocked file extension, simply remove it from the list.

Ironport - new file type group

Is it possible to create a new file type group on an Ironport c360? Or is is possible to add a specific file type to an existing group? I figure there is a config file somewhere with this data but, so far, I'm unable to find it.
Thanks
If this is the wrong location for this discussion please redirect me. I have not been able to read any existing discussions on in the official ironport area.

You may want to move this thread to the IronPort > Email Security community to get better exposure.

Add New File type to Symbian os 9.1 ?

Hi all
I wanna Know is there any way to add new file type (for example AVI Filetype) in S60v3
- I know that Y-Task (Filetype) can modify File Association (But only for Known file types by Symbian os & cant add New file type)
Is there another app or trick?
Thanks in advance

I don't think there is any trick yet available. But there are 2-3 applications that play AVI media files.

New file type for XCode

Hi!
I want the XCode to apply C syntax coloring to the .nc files, which are not recognized by it. There are settings to change coloring schemes for known types, but i couldn't find anything to add a new file type. Each time I open a .nc file, I need to select the syntax coloring scheme manually..
Anybody has any idea on where to find settings for that?
best,
Onur.

I ran into this same problem just yesterday and I was glad to even find out that I could temporarily fix the problem by relaunching the finder. It also happened to my while I was renaming files. It allowed it for a few files and then all of a sudden, nothing. I couldn't type, or do any key commands with anything related to the finder, although all of my application files were fine.
I am clueless as to how to permanently fix this problem, although i am thankful to read on how to relaunch the finder to fix it for a bit.
I'll keep checking back to see if some guru stops by with the answer.
Thanks for posting!

Possible? To add new file types to Bridge?

When a file isn't listed in the file type list in the preferences, then Bridge (in Vista) doesn't allow me any changes for the "open with" function. It seems that I MUST live with Bridge's own handling for this file, even when it is false. (e.g. I already posted that Bridge falsely opens MindManager files using Safari)
From other management software I know that it is sometimes possible, to manually add new file types to the preferences, e.g. editing an ASCII/txt file where they are listed. This is less elegant, but I would do it, if no other choice. Is there such a file in Bridge? Or do you know an other way to add new file types?
Thanks, Michael

Hi,
You can not extend Oracle Data Mining to have your own algorithm.
However, you can integrate mining implementations within the DB via SQL, PL/SQL among others.

Added new file but type still won't open in CS5

I would like CS5 to be able to open .m3u files as text files. I have added M3U into the Extensions.txt in my C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Applications Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration\Extensions.txt, and the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\Extensions.txt files. I've also added it to the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DocumentTypes\MMDocumentTypes.xml file. I have tried this two different ways: one by adding M3U as an addition TXT file, and the other as a completely new type.
In both cases, I can do File\Open and it lists my type (either Text Files (*.txt; *.m3u) or M3U Files (*.m3u)), but when I try to open a file with .m3u extension I get "Dreamweaver can't open .m3u files. Please choose an HTML, XML, or other compatible file."
Is there some other location I need to change this? Or is there somewhere to tell CS5 to open unrecgonized file types as text (the way Dreamweaver 8 used to work)?

Robert,
I would like CS5 to be able to open .m3u files as text files. I have added M3U into the Extensions.txt in my C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Applications Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration\Extensions.txt, and the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\Extensions.txt files. I've also added it to the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DocumentTypes\MMDocumentTypes.xml file. I have tried this two different ways: one by adding M3U as an addition TXT file, and the other as a completely new type.
You should never edit files in the *Application* Configuration folder (i.e.C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration). You should only edit files in the *User* Configuration fodler (i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Applications Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5\en_US\Configuration). The reason is that you can always delete your User Configuration folder to reset to your original installation files.
You said that you edited "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\configuration\DocumentTypes\MMDocumentTypes.xml" but you should have edited the one in your User Configuration folder instead. If it doesn't exist in the User Configuration folder, then copy it there first, then edit it. You should just need to add it to the winfileextension and/or macfileextension attribute(s) as a comma-separated value.
You'll need to shutdown and restart DW.
HTH,

External Editor - New File Type

Is there a way that you can set an external editor and specify a specific file type that is not listed in the 'File Type' section of preferences.
I am working on a project for a client where I have been coerced into developing PL/SQL code. I'd like to house the code in XCode so that I can take advantage of the SCM integration and the new Snapshot feature in 3.0 as well as keep the files tied together in a project.
I have SubEthaEdit setup to manage .sql documents within finder. So I can choose 'Open with Finder' from the context menu in the Groups & Files pane and the document will open in SubEthaEdit. However, I'd like to associate those files directly with that editor in XCode so it will open the files with that editor by default. Ideally I'd like to have a text.script.sql file type that I can use for this purpose.
Any thoughts or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Rob,
I am not sure if this will help you, but you can look at the textmate editor (http://macromates.com/) in case it can do some of the things you want

Why does CC have less file types than CS6?

I have both DW CS6 and CC installed on my system. Can anyone tell me why CS6 has more file types available from the "file/new" menu than CC has? For example, CS6 has 18 "HTML" types, yet CC has only 2. Also, CS6 has a "get more content" link on the dialog, whereas CC does not.
Is there any way to get CC to have all of those file types available, or do I need to create the file in CS6 and then switch to CC for the rest of my work?

If you want those starter files in Dreamweaver CC, it's very easy to copy them across. Go to the following location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\BuiltIn\Layouts (Windows)
/Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CS6/configuration/BuiltIn/Layouts (Mac)
Copy all the files except the first four, which begin with HTML5_
Paste them into the following location:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\BuiltIn\Layouts (Windows)
/Applications/Adobe Dreamweaver CC/configuration/BuiltIn/Layouts (Mac)
You will need Administrator permission to do this.
Once you have copied them, you will find them in your New Document dialog box. The names won't be fully spelled out, but they should be recognizable.

CustomEditor Extension - How to add support for a new file type...

Folks,
I'm trying to use the CustomEditor extension as a basis for a new editor that will work with an arbitrary extension (say ".foo").
How do I tell JDeveloper that .foo files should be opened by my wonderful new extension?
I've created a Node class called 'FooNode' to represent my .foo file. It extends DeployableTextNode and overrides the two public variables that appear to specifiy what file types this node represents:
    public static final java.lang.String EXT = ".foo";
    public static final java.lang.String EXT2 = ".bar";The relevent piece of code is in AnAddin.java and appears to be:
public void initialize()
    EditorManager eMgr = EditorManager.getEditorManager();
    eMgr.register(this, new Class[] {/*XMLSourceNode.class,*/ FooNode.class });
}This doesn't work - I can't get JDeveloper to recognize .foo files and bring up my editor. What am I doing wrong?
David Rolfe

From our development team:
For the IDE to recognize a new file extension, it needs to be
explicitly registered with the IDE framework. So the static
final field named EXT isn't automatically detected. To
register the extension (this is the JDev 10.1.3 API):
import oracle.ide.model.Recognizer;
Recognizer.mapExtensionToClass(".foo", FooNode.class);

Sales Order creation of adding new condition type to Item

Hi Expert,
The sales order has been created and need to add new condition type (Z601) to the first item(10). While adding the condition I am getting warning message like
"Item 000030 exists already; the entry will be ignored".
Where item 030 will be the last item.
I have cheked but it's a standard report SAPFV45P, we can't modify. Please let me know can we set any field in the sales order so that we wont be getting this message.
Regards,
Mahesh

Hello,
If you would like to add the Condition Type automatically for a specific Item based on some condition (Lets say, Item Category), then you can code a Pricing Routine in VOFM Transaction and it will be automatically assigned.
Thanks and Regards,

Save version as new file type in same Library

I know I have to be doing something wrong here, but I can't figure this out.
Is there any way to save a version of an edited image within the same library project, but as a different type?
For example, I am creating HDR images in a 3rd party application, and the end result is a TIFF. I save these edited images in a separate folder on my desktop for my HDR images, but then I have to reimport them into Aperture. As these images are TIFF files, and now that I have them back in Aperture where I do some final tuning, I have to the export them again to another folder as JPG's, and then reimport them into Aperture so that they stay in the same Library.
Once I have done my final color corrections, why can't I just do a "Save As" type function, within the same project and save the TIFF's as JPG, or PNG, or whatever? Why is Aperture forcing me to export and reimport just to change the file type?
Thanks in advance,
Mark

I'm afraid you lost me about half way through that.
Images in Aperture do not have a file type. This is one of the hurdles you must clear in order to take full advantage of Aperture's brilliance. Your images, in practical terms, do not exist as image-format files (such as JPG, etc.) within Aperture. Exporting is when they are converted to an image-format file. In point of fact, "export" in Aperture, means "create from this image an image-format file of the type I specify and save that file to my hard drive".
That's why there is no "Save as ... ". Images in Aperture do not exist as single, sharable, files (and, perforce, do not have in image format). The equivalent to "Save as ... " is, in Aperture, "Export". And it has to be "Export" because once you give an image a format it can no longer be in the Library. (Unless you import the new image-format file, in which case Aperture makes a new image with the imported file being the new image's Master; the new image in Aperture, once again, has no shareable single-file image format.)
When I do HRD or panaroma stitching, I Stack in Aperture the photos I will use, export them to the program I will use, use that program, then import the result (always one file) and make it the pick of the Stack.
Hope that helps.
