Any news on a developer's preview of Paris

There have been some rumours about a developer's preview release of Paris. So now I'm curious if there is any news about such a release or if we have to wait until next year for the production release?

Hallo,
i think, Oracle pays a lot of money for buying Peoplesoft etc, and not for developing their own end user products like Forms, OWB, Reports, Designer.
See thread: "OWB 10gR1 Repository and 10gR2 Database" in the owb discussion forum.
We are developing a new project with owb and want to install 10gR2.
How many month or years we have to wait for this patch?
Regards
Franz

Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?

Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?

yes styles are applied. What does not show up are the container divs - they all have the thin purple borders.
The "Blog Lovers" image shows up but it is inside the #blogindex div - which seems to be invisible because the elements inside #blogindex div are just piled on top of each other. (see below html) This is now happening on all the pages of this site.
(I test a different site in DW and I was able to add divs and borders and content inside divs just fine.)

Ss there any new versions of safari in the works

hi just curious if apple has any newer version planed and if so when is expected to go public beta?

It's not a beta at all; it's a Developer Preview, so it's still very much a work in progress, It won't even be released for a year. So, that means it's not stable; you should expect it to crash, but don't complain if it does, because that's the very nature of a preview release.

Are there any new features for Flex 4.6 developers?

Hi,
just wanted to ask if there are any new features for projects that use Adobe Flex 4.6 (i.e., Flex projects, targetting Flash Player in the browser). From what I've observed so far:
* Design view is removed (not really a "new feature")
* Working with imports is smarter
* Nothing else really changed
Is that correct? Anything else why I as a Flex developer should appreciate in Flash Builder 4.7? (We don't use Apache Flex 4.8 and will not in the near future so if there are any new features there, they don't really apply to us, 4.6 developers).

HI ,
Can anybody tell me how to create new client in ABAP sneek preview , i had create a new client 100 and tried to enter with Cilent 100. User : SAP* , and Password : pass. But i'm unable to log into the sap system.

Hello,
perhaps this will help you --> <a href="http://www.sap-img.com/bc049.htm">instructions</a>
And this quote from another thread:
in SAPNW2004sSneakPreviewABAP this procedure only works if the system profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar is set to 0 (and the system restarted after that), otherwise you will have a new client without any user thus useless ;-).

Publish using iWeb 09 using any WebDAV compliant web development software

Our School is looking at moving to the Mac Platform. We currently use Frontpage to publish our website. Our current web host says that we can use "any WebDAV compliant web development software to publish our site. Is there a way to do this using iWeb 09?

George ~ Yes, there's a catch. Your videos will become part of iWeb's Domain file which may make it slow to open in iWeb, make backups and re-publish everything (if needed). Better to upload your videos separately to your server and embed them into your iWeb site.
iWeb '09 makes this easy if you upload your videos to YouTube: iWeb '09 has a new YouTube widget to embed your videos into your iWeb page:

Also, I may want to show some videos encoded with Flash, not QT. Is that still possible using iWeb 09?
If you're concerned that some PC users won't have QT and won't want to install it, I think if you go the embedded YouTube route, almost all PC or Mac users will be able to view your videos — because "videos on YouTube are streamed through an Adobe Flash player."
If you'd prefer to use Flash in iWeb, this article may help:

No such method error when starting OC4J 1.3 Developer's Preview

Hi,
Having run 1.0.2.2.1 successfully I've now installed OC4J 1.3 Developer's Preview version. When I start up the server (java -jar oc4j.jar) I get the following error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError

at org.apache.crimson.parser.Parser2.maybeDoctypeDecl(Parser2.java:1131)

Any ideas ?
Cheers,

Hi Geoff,
As far as I know, there is no "OC4J 1.3 Developer's Preview" version;
there is a "9.0.3 Developer's Preview Version". However, I would suggest
using the "9.0.2 Production Version" (also available for download from the Technet web site: http://technet.oracle.com)
Also, you need to be using JDK 1.3.1 with that version of OC4J.
You can find information on how to run OC4J in "debug" mode from the
Atlassian web site:
http://www.atlassian.com
and on the OrionSupport web site:
http://www.orionsupport.com
You can also try using the "verbosity" flag, as in:
java -jar oc4j.jar -verbosity 10
(10 is the highest value for "verbosity")
Good Luck,
Avi.

Quartz Composer - Effects of Other Cards? Any New Ideas?

I have read the discussions here about Quartz Composer, and noticed a mix of difficulties:
1 hardware restrictions (G4 or video card)
2 can't get preview (white screen), but can get render
3 can get preview, but can't get render (white screen)
4 can't get either preview or render
5 get greyed or coloured results in renders
I'm suffering 4 - no preview or render - but not 1 - I have a G5 2G Dual Processor, with an ATI Radeon Pro 9600. (I see ripples when widgets launch.)
In this context, are there any new ideas?
One observation: to find out the name of my video card, I ran system profiler, to be reminded that I have:
- an old ATI card driving a second monitor in a PCI slot
- an Alchemy TV card also in a PCI slot
I know it's tempting to blame the cards for the iMovie difficulty, especially since we are talking about a video problem, and both are video cards, so I want to ask:
- are there any people with these kinds of cards having no problem at all?
- are there any people with similar cards experiencing similar problems?

"I know it's tempting to blame the cards for the
iMovie difficulty, especially since we are talking
about a video problem"
Have you tried pulling out [Alchemy TV and second monitor] cards, just to rule
them out as a source of the problem?
No... my thinking is that I'm an amateur iMovie user, and in the end I would feel more comfortable with my second montor and (very occasionally used!) TV than with a fully working iMovie. Hence my questions were directed at finding out whether others had:
- these problems without cards being fitted
- no problems despite cards being fitted

Any new ideas or suggestions for flattening layer effects without changing appearance

Hello all,
I've been doing a lot of looking around for ideas on how to make my work flow more simple. I regularly run into an issue with layer effects when they are flattened and have been unable to find any good solutions but was wondering if any new developments have come up with the newer versions of Photoshop that I am somehow overlooking?
My main issue is that when I flatten layers in sections or groups (i.e. flatten only 2 or more layers together in a larger composition but not the entire compostion), layer effects with blending modes often flatten strangely. I particularly notice this with drop shadows as I often use a color other than black, usually a very dark shade of the color that is applied to the element the shadow is overlapping. To me it gives it a much more realistic and natural look. When I flatten a layer I notice that it appears the multiply mode is stripped from drop shadow FX unless they are flattened with the nackground element, so if I used a dark blue for example, once flattened the shadow is now a distinct blue shade that appears to be in normal blending mode. I can set that drop shadow layer to multiply to restore it but then I have to keep the drop shadow element on it's own layer seperate from the body of the other flattened content otherwise it inherits the multipoy mode as well of course, which still leaves me with an unwanted layer to deal with.
My curreny solutions range from hiding all other layers and merging visible, which works from some things but not the aforementioned drop shadow issue, I will also keep things that just don't co-operate on their own seperate layer, like the drop shadow and just leave them be if I can. In cases where that isn't an option I will even hide all other layers and comp the portion of the PSD that needs flattened to a seperate TIFF or PNG and import back into the PSD. Sometimes this will work around the issue and make everything interact as desired. It's a lenghty affair though that involves mental acrobatics every time to devise a suitable workaround that I can use for my purposes.
The reason I need to do this often is because I work for a web development company as the designer. Once the design is done sometimes I will do the slicing and prepping for web (not an issue when I do this because I can leave everything as a PSD). When other team members like the web developer need access to the graphics files though, they use Fireworks which means I need a layered PNG so they can slice as needed with the software they are familiar with while maintining transparency where needed.
I know some will say just to use Fireworks then but that isn't a desireable solution to me because I find Fireworks very limiting on the advanced Fx and graphic manipulation. I agree that Fireworks can be very capable and can do very nice things when you're thinking of the design of the entire site in general, but it usually can't do the advanced fx and manipulation I like to use for the "eye candy" portions of the site, especially when you are using mutiple Fx on a layer with their own blending modes. I find it more of a hassle to build a general site in Fireworks and import elements from Phoroshop. Keeping track of proper sizing and constantly loading placeholder background images to photoshop for reference isn't for me!
I have a pretty decent understanding of how the layer flattening works and how the blending modes function (like the fact you can't have mutiple blending modes on a single layer, thus many of the issues with layer Fx blending modes). I am using CS5.5 Design premium and am hoping there have been some advances in working with this type of thing. I know that if I could flatten the drop shadow layer with the layer it overlaps that would solve the issue nicely but this is seldom possible on websites where you have fluid areas that need to change size and the image element with the drop shadow may not always be in the same place on the site background.
It would be awesome if, since you have the ability to apply blending modes to individual layer effects, if Photoshop could have a setting to somehow flatten the layer effects and layer in it's own self containted process and then place the flattened layer within the the PSD as if you imported a transparent image like a TIFF or PNG. This is basically what I do on the extreme side of tihngs manually when needed. It would be great if there was a way to automate that type of functionality.
Does anyone know of any new or good method to deal with this type of thing? Sorry about the long post, I was trying to be as detailed as possible as I know it's sometimes easy to misunderstand what someone is asking with this type of question. Thanks to everyone for taking the time to read/respond!

Hi Noel,
Thanks for the reply. The reason I need to do things this way is because of the workflow at my company. I need to be able to convert my photoshop PSD files in Fireworks and have the layers behave predictably. Trying to open a PSD file as is in Fireworks, while keeping the layer flexibility intact usually creates all kinds of chaos, ranging from Fireworks flat out ignoring some layer effects to drastically changing them. I assume because Fireworks way of intrepreting some setting numerically is different than Photoshop and because Fireworks doesn't even have some of the effect properties at all.
The web developers need to have layered PNG files so they can slice re-slice and move elements around as needed white they develop a website. They need to maintain transparency on the seperate elements of the website mockup so that they can reuse and move elements around as needed. At times I end up doing the CSS layout on a site and in those cases it doesn't matter becuase I can work straight from the PSD and export elements straight to PNG files etc as needed. It's when I need to provide the development team with a Fireworks PNG version of the website mockup that I have these issues.
For example and to clarify, I may have a website interface designed that has several fancy buttons or a header element with drop shadows on them or that overlap a background element in some way. If I am doing the coding on the site I can simply hide all other layers than the releveant ones, flatten visible to maintain transparency, save for web etc and I have the element complete with a nice drop shadow ready to drop into the code. If the developers are doing the slicing and layout though, they don't know how to use Photoshop (and aren't going to be learning anytime soon) but they do use Fireworks... so they want the site in fireworks, complete with the ability to hide background elements or other parts of the site that may be in the way of making the proper PNG for that button or other element that maintains transparency AND keeps the drop shadow, the proper color and transparency as well.
What typically happens if I don't flatten each element of the site design before importing into Fireworks is that it will look very different in Fireworks, but being web developers (lol!) they don't notice or maybe even care that something looks weird or appears to be missing a shadow or other effect. Then once the site goes live, the client DOES notice it and I end up scrambling to fix the issue. That usually means going back to the PSD in a rush and trying to flatten all the elements anyway to convert to a nice Fireworks PNG so they can recapture their slices, or taking the slice they used on the website and pasting it into the PSD original so I can make a direct match and converting the element myself after the fact.
In order to avoid these work flow issues and embarrassments I have taken to flattening each individual element (i.e. a button and all of it's effects) of website GUI to ensure Fireworks can't fiddle with it on import. I can then give the web developers a PNG they can slice easily but with all the important elements still completely seperate from one another. If they hide the layer that is the shopping cart button for example, they are going to be hiding the button and it's drop shadow or glow or any other effects. That way it can't be messed up by Fireworks or a developer. With buttons in particular I can't just include a portion of the background where the drop shadow would be becuase that button could end up anywhere on the site in the end. One of the features our business offers clients is a fair amount of flexibility on the CMS side of things to move elements around and create new sections of the site so I need to keep most elements as felxible as possible, preferrably without giving up quality of the artwork.
I feel like I have a fairly solid understanding of why the layer effects act the way they do and how they interact, even if I don't understand fully the math that makes them do what they do. I guess I was hoping that the increasing power in the CS suites, especially in 5 and 5.5 might have made some new work around possible, or that they might have added some feature buried in the menus somewhere because it's not that practicle for many users. I have several ways to work around these issues now, but they are manual and cumbersome, I was hoping there might have been an action script or feature to automate some of this.
I think a really cool thing to be able to do would be to be able to select some layers and have Photoshop copy them and paste them into a new document with their layer styles and all intact, flatten that document with transparency intact and then put the new flattened file back into the original document in the same location on the artboard as a new layer. This is essentially what I do when I hide all the other layers, merge visible and save as a TIFF or PNG and then copy that new file back into my full PSD document. I still experience some color shifting this way but usually not as drastic as when I try to merge directly in the full PSD. OR if that can't work, even better would be to somehow have the effects be able to "float" with the actual photoshop layer, almost like sub layers of that layer, so that each one could have it's own blending mode (and individual masks for each... that would be awesome!) and you could flatten them together somehow when needed and maintain color tones etc. Don't know if this could work though since I don't know what the limitations of the math process that combines the layers are. I would imagine some of it it would be possible, if not worth their time, since smart objects open in their own document window when you edit. I would imagine that some code work on the back end might be able to be applied using a similar method to give extra flexbility of some layer effects in Photoshop. I would love it, I know that!
Hopefully there is at least as faster way if not an ideal work around. It defintely adds to the development cycle of a website to have to go through this step. It's also at a point in the development cycle where the site has been approved and there can be added pressure about why they development team still has to wait on a design that has already been OK'd and should be ready to slice. I have gained understanding with my boss about this and it's worked out OK for the most part, but it would certainly make him happier if I could eliminate that extra step, or reduce the time needed. On a complicated website I might lose half a day of work or more sorting out the various site elements and figuring out how much I can flatten and how and what order to break effects off their layers to maintain appearance. I have tried Fireworks several times as a native solution, but ultimately I feel very restricted by Fireworks and often can't do what I had in mind, although it has gotten better. Also on a psychological level, Fireworks "working with basic shapes" method of desigining a website tends to steer me down that mental path for some reason and I always end up with sites that look much less fluid and organi, much more boxy than when I design in Photoshop. One of our companies selling points is that we design sites that break away from the boxy and simpler web 2.0 look so Fireworks is not really a consideration for me at this point. Thanks again for the help and any respones!

Any new ABAP on non-HANA?

Dear CAL-Team,
As the HANA-Appliance has quite some bigger system requirements than needed for pure ABAP, I'd like to use the ABAP on MaxDB appliance as my default development environment.
However, I had to notice that this is on SP02, which is - well - very old indeed.
Is there any new appliance on MaxDB/ASE coming up soon?
Thanks and cheers,
Oliver

Hi Oliver, we are currently working on the 7.40 SP8 on ASE solution. If there are no major obstacles it will be released in February. This version will then also be available as download version, probably in March - but no guarantee for the date. Kind regards Thea

Any news on the export to PDF bug?

Way back since the launch of CS4 theres are alot of people experencing problems with vector paths and fonts when exporting both from InDesign and Illustrator CS6 to pdf. I've read some debates here too. It's a global issue and Adobe has never really adressed the problem exept from time to time where they have told the public to wait for an update and/or new release. Nevertheless the export to pdf problems never seem to stop. The problems has some variational characters depending on what OS you have. Any news on bugfixes or scripts that can be used to fix the export problems?

I have the same problem gabbygo. After going back and forth on this topic here on this forum someone decided to close the discussion I started. There is much resistance from Adobe on this matter and they do not feel very comfortable when the bugs are made visible by customers. Strange cause that's actually how a software company should improve. They should be embrasing the opportunity to enhanse the product instead of approaching their paying customers as poison as soon as they identify chronic problems and bugs. There are also a great deal of bug problems with epubs. You can do a search on that topic both here and on Google. People seem to struggle a great deal with that as well, but those bugs are of course newer than the export to pdf bugs. It's sad the way things are developing, Adobe have become a very closed organisation not willing to deal with wide spread application bugs, sticking the head into the sand is hardly a wise solution.
I'm sorry I can't help you out on this. I wish I had some answers myself. Let's hope they will produce the fix you are asking for.

Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

HT204266 Anyone else having problem with updates? My apps won't update and can't download any new apps.

My phone won't update the apps or let me download any new ones. Been going on for few days now.

Many developers are releasing updates today because tomorrow Apple is shutting down iTunes Connect (the developer backend to iTunes) for the holidays. This could be affecting things, but I doubt it.
You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
