Any difference in signature lock function, read-only field property, & signed tab "Mark as read-only

Is there any real difference between
1) simply setting a field to read-only in a custom script on the Signed tab of a signature field by:
this.getField("field name").readonly = true;
2) including the field in the "Mark as read-only: " list of fields on the Signed tab of a signature field
and, 3) including the field in a call to the setLock() method of a signature field?
As far as I can tell there isn't, but am I missing something? And if they are all the same, then since setLock() must execute in a priviledged context, it seems the harder way to get a read-only field.

Hi Ron,
It certainly sounds like you are on the right track.What version of Acrobat are you using, is it Pro or Standard, Mac or Win? I see where you mentioned the file was created in Acrobat X, but I'm not sure that the app that create the PDF file is the same version as the one you are using for editing.

Any easy way to execute function when a [bindable] property changes?

Say i have a [Bindable] property
[Bindable] public var myText:String;
Is there some easy way to trigger a function when myText changes?
I understand that Bindable metadata tag adds setter and getter functions and some propertyChanged-event or something, so can i like just use ".addEventListener(Event, myFunction)" somewhere or something similar to execute myFunction?

I tested this code:
import mx.binding.utils.ChangeWatcher;
public var myText:String;
private var watcherInstance:ChangeWatcher = ChangeWatcher.watch(this, ["myText"], changeHandler);
public function changeHandler(event:Event) :void {
     trace("win");
        private function handleClick() : void {
            myText = "testing" + new Date().getTime();
            trace("myText is now " + myText)
<mx:Button label="click" click="handleClick()"/>
only traces I get are:
myText is now testing1283532597884
myText is now testing1283532604501
myText is now testing1283532609616

Any solution to the iOS 6 bug for auto lock function for the iPhone 4S

Any solution to the iOS 6 bug for auto lock function for the iPhone 4S

My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh - that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion.

How do I resolve: Field Selection dialog [Pick... button] in "Mark as read-only" section of Signed tab for Digital Signature field is not working

I am using Acrobat Pro X on Windows 7 Enterprise x64 to create a form. When I have a simple form with a few fields, I am able to use the "Pick..." button to select the fields I want to select, but in a more complex form (20 fields with 3 Signature fields) The Field Selection dialog does not work. I can make the selections, but they are not saved. Removing fields does not resolve issue. IF I start with a blank form and add a few fields, the dialog will work, but after adding more, it quits working. Reader XI is also installed.

And that is why many responders use only the custom JavaScript calculation option.
The UI for the select fields and simplified field nations are only a way to pass field names to a JavaScript function that performs the actual calculation. Sometimes these functions call other functions and pass the parameters can lead to errors in the attempted code.
I would start to learn code JavaScript for Acrobat.
The pick field dialog is for performing calculations involving sums, products, averages, minimum, and maximum. I am not sure how that would work with a digital signature. Once a signature is applied the form fields could be locked.

Locking PDF but only allow further signatures & get the list of of changes made after signing

Hi,
I have looked at Adobe Acrobat 9.0 and found the Signing > locking feature which blocks any changes after the document is signed. I need to know whether using Acrobat SDK, one could implement a similar locking option via plugin in a way that it ONLY allows further blank signature fields to be created or sign existing ones and locks all other changes. If possible, any pointers to API functions would be appreciated.
If the above is not possible using Acrobat SDK 9.0 then can the SDK provides a list of all the set of changes made after the signing is performed (at the time of verification) in the form of some codes which can guide the plugin author about what change after signing was done e.g.
a blank signature field was signed
a blank signature field is created
watermark has been applied
form is filled
sticky notes/stamps/other annotations are added
Regards,
mwak

Thanks for your response. I have just performed this:
I signed a PDF ( having no prior signature or blank signature fields ) using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 and locked it. I am now not able to create more signatures on this PDF. I believe I can't add more signatures even using the Acrobat SDK and Lock means complete lock-down of the document. This is different to what you said " it restricts modifications EXCEPT for other signings" or may be I am not understanding it clearly.
I created two blank signature fields. When I clicked on the first, there is no Lock settings at the time of signing. I believe because If it is locked then the next signature can't be signed. With only a single signature field present, the lock feature is there.
So I believe I have to resort to the option of identifying the changes in a revision and then if it the change is related to say adding stamps, sticky notes prompts the user at the time of verification.
Can some one point me to the API functions set which identify list the objects which have changed after signing.
Regards,
mwak

Any difference in functionality between the two 802.11n models?

I plan on eventually having three airport extreme base stations in my house, in an 802.11n WDS network so I can stream HDTV and DVD movies between the many MythTV and XBMC machines on my network. My first AEBS is the MBxxx model, with the gig network ports. I just bought a second AEBS which was advertised as being the MBxxx model, but is actually the MAxxx model with the 10/100 ethernet ports. Awesome.
The only router I need to have gig ports is the one plugged directly into my backbone switch, so I could get away with the other two having 10/100 ethernet. What I'm wondering, though, is if there's any difference with the firmware between the two models. Will I lose any functionality by not having all MBxxx model routers, or run into any performance issues that are cleared up in the new models?
None of the AEBS's will be doing any routing; My Sonicwall will be doing that and my Windows server will handle giving out DHCP addresses to clients. Further, I plan on keeping an 802.11g router online (outside of the WDS network) so that older 2.4GHZ clients can use that network, keeping the Airport network 11n only. Am I ok to mix the older and newer AEBS's or should I keep the WDS ring MBxxx models only?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Those 2 queries are not the same. Depending on your data, Query A, may select more rows than Query B.
I don't have access to your table, so I'll give an example using the scott.emp table.
The following 2 queries are similar to your 2 queries:
SELECT deptno -- Query A
,       job
,       sal
FROM    scott.emp m
WHERE   deptno IN (
                      SELECT sj.deptno
                      FROM    scott.emp sj
                      WHERE   sj.deptno = m.deptno
                      AND     sj.job     = 'CLERK'
AND     deptno IN (
                      SELECT ss.deptno
                      FROM    scott.emp ss
                      WHERE   ss.deptno = m.deptno
                      AND     ss.sal     > 1200
SELECT deptno    -- Query B
,       job
,       sal
FROM    scott.emp m
WHERE   deptno IN (
                      SELECT s.deptno
                      FROM    scott.emp s
                      WHERE   s.deptno = m.deptno
                      AND     s.job     = 'CLERK'
                      AND     s.sal     > 1200
The results of Query A are all 14 rows in the table, but Query B produces only the 3 rows from deptno=10.
Query A is looking for departments that have CLERKs, and departments that have sal>1200. If one row in the department has job='CLERK' (no matter what the sal is), and another row has sal>1200 (no matter waht the job is), then that department meets both criteria.
Query B is looking for departments who have CLERKs whose sal is over 1200. Both criteria must be met on the same row.

What is the difference between using the command "dsmgmt" and the "Managed By" tab when adding users to the local administrators Account on a Read-Only Domain Controller?

When I use the
"dsmgmt" command to add a user to the local administrators account of a RODC I can actually see the user when I use the "Show Role Administrators" parameter. However, I can't see the members of the
group added to the "Managed By" tab of the RODC object in AD. Even though, the users added using
"dsmgmt" and by the "Managed By" tab can all log in locally and have admin rights to the RODC. Are there any differences between these two ways of adding users to the local administrators account?

Hi,
For groups, managedBy is an administrative convenience to designate “group admins”. Whatever principal listed in
managedBy gets permission to update a group’s membership (the actual security is updated on the group’s AD object to allow this).
In Win2008 and later managedBy also became the way you delegated local administration on an RODC, allowing branch admins to install patches, manage shares, etc. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755310(WS.10).aspx).
On the RODC, this is updating the RepairAdmin registry value within RODCRoles.
So the difference between them should be only the way they do the same thing.

Any difference between distinct and aggregate function in sql query cost???

Hi,
I have executed many sql stmts patterns- such as:
a) using a single table
b) using two tables, using simple joins or outer joins
but i have not noticed any difference in sql stmts in cost and in execution plan....
Anyway, my colleague insists on that using aggregate function is less costly compared to
distinct....(something i have not confirmed, that's why i beleive that they are exactly the same...)
For the above reffered 1st sql pattern.. we could for example use
select distinct deptno
from emp
select count(*), deptno
from emp
group by deptno select distinct owner, object_type from all_objects
select count(*), owner, object_type from all_objects
group by owner, object_typeHave you found any difference between the two ever...????
Note: I use Ora DB 10g v2.
Thank you,
Sim

distinct and aggregate function are for different uses and may give same result but if u r using aggregate function to get distinct records, it will be expensive...
ex
select distinct deptno from scott.dept;

Digital Signatures- either disable reader abilities or any other work around

I am fairly new to acrobat
I have designed a form that uses a JavaScript that looks at individual fields to verify if the information is good. I also require two signatures along with these correctly entered fields before I consider the form "good to go"
(If the form is missing something, my form validation JavaScript will population the value of a text box with the list of which fields are bad. The warning goes away when everything is good)
I can’t find the correct property in JavaScript that reference if the digital signature field is signed or not, so I put in the signed event JavaScript that locks the field when signed.
In my form validation script, I check to see if that digital signature field is locked- if so- then they must have signed it.
Here is where I am running into trouble:
After rights are extended to reader (my users will use reader to fill out this pdf)
It’s possible for the user to sign it, (locking the field) and then clear the digital signature (but the locked field tells my validation script its “okay”)
Locking the field does not stop someone from clearing it, which is not good.
Also, someone using reader can add a digital signature on top of where I want them to sign it- and my validation script doesn’t know about this, so it won’t remove the warning if they add their own signature.
How do I:
((Find the javascript property to know if a particular digital signature field is signed.)
OR
(Find a way to not allow the user to clear their signed signature))
AND
(Stop the user from adding their own digital signature field to the form?)
Thank you.

One last try.
You help would really be welcome in finding out the root cause of the difference in behaviour between reader 8 and 9 in this matter (bug or change).
I have no idea what documentation to read (since i've read the launch documentation and change list documentation) about reader 9, i've contacted Adobe 3 days ago (and the answer is silence, like usuall) and have no clear thought about what to say (without taking a huge risk by giving a uninformed answer) about this issue.
Thanks.

External Drive Permissions Locked to Read ONLY - HELP!

Hello:
I have recently moved from a powerbook to an imac. The external I used with the powerbook was working fine until I began to use it with the imac. Once I hooked it up to the imac, I only had read permissions. I have never set any of the permissions on the disk and have always left it open. Thinking it was just the imac, I plugged it back into the pb, to find it was also appears locked to read only. I have gone through the web looking for solutions and I cannot seem to find a solution.
When I open get info about the disk, under sharing and permissions, its says "you can only read"
under the list of name: wkim has read and write privlige, staff and everyone get read only. I am wkim, so what gives? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

ok. my problems were probably not related and were fixed by reinstalling 10.5.2 with the Combo Updater found on (www.apple.com/downloads)...this probably won't help you but won't hurt so may be worth a try...
your permission problems probably have something to do with user IDs changing from one machine to the next. Try first to "repair permissions" with Disk Utility on your main HD. you can also go to Terminal and navigate to the problem directory and enter "ls -ln" to see what user ID and group ID own the files. then type just "id" to see what your local ID is. if they don't match then you'll probably need to change them with chown or chgrp.
hopefully someone else will chime in here as 10.5 has created convoluted permission problems and I still haven't worked out my own...

Ref. Orig. can't be moved to sys. trash: locked or read-only. Fix?

Another new one (amazing what one uncovers under deadline ). See screen shot:
Some of these files are from a Leaf Aptus 70 (they were part of the Ap3 Tutorial) and are very large. Large or small, I like to run a clean ship. Can I search in Finder (or Terminal) for locked or read-only files? They are all on one external drive. There are other ways to root them out, but I don't have the time right now.
Thanks.
--Kirby.
(Added:)
Can I do this to my entire referenced originals drive without _any_ repercussions?
You can unlock all files in a folder by opening the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and entering the following:
chflags -R nouchg
followed by a space. Drag the folder into the Terminal window and press Enter to unlock the items.

I'm not being clever today. Found a different, easy, solution. Right-clicked one of each set of Images and selected "Show in Finder". This brought up the Finder folder containing all the Images with that date. Then emptied the Aperture Trash. At warning, clicked "Continue". Went back to the Finder windows and ... found out the joke is on me: all the files in question were moved to the system trash. I have no idea what files were flagged "Read Only" or "Locked".
At some point I will "Consolidate all Originals" or relocate them to a different drive and examine the files left on the referenced Originals drive. Not sure what I'll find. All the Aptus files ( .mos) and all the other "not mine" Originals that I was trying to remove from the Library are now in my system trash.
Thanks for the help (and the caution) though -- I'm ignorant of Unix and like to think that I'm wise enough to not use it or, at a minimum, to ask experts for an "OK" first .
