AR8 doesn't implement the unix-style copy&paste

Hi,
I can't say if earlier Acrobat Reader versions did it, we just stepped on AR8 not doing this: If you mark text with the left mouse key in any application in any Unix I know, this text is copied to some clipboard and can be inserted in any other window with the middle mouse key.
Even Programs like Opera/Firefox/Thunderbird/Openoffice do this.
AR8 doesn't, unfortunately. Is there a setting to activate this? I didn't find one...
If there isn't, please add this feature to the next release! This is really a "must have" in Unix :-)
cu,
Frank

So with Fedora 8 the following seems to the pattern.
Open pdf file.
Mouseover line of text.
Middle click in blank document, get mouseover text.
Mouseover a second line of text.
Middle click in blank document, get first line of text.
Highlight a third line of test.
Uee edit menu to copy
Paste into blank document, get third line of text.
Highlight a fourth line of test.
Uee edit menu to copy
Paste into blank document, get first line of text.
First line of text ever after.

IWork(Keynote, pages and numbers) doesn't work well about the issue of copy & paste problem

I think so, too. the Keynote 6.5 is not working well on Yosemite (Mac OS X 10.10.1).
In my case, I can't copy & paste from some program(particularly analysis program in my case) to Keynote.
So, when I check coping & pasting the graph or image and so on to Powerpoint and other programs (one of Office is such word and 3rd programs), It works well. However It doesn't work at Keynote, page and numbers.
Also, I tried to do the following process to solve this issue
======
Something is wrong with your installation of Keynote
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1 delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote by using AppDelete.
2 restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
3 immediately after the start chime, press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
         let it fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
4 when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and      click repair disc permissions
5 when complete, restart the Mac normally
6 install Keynote from the Mac App Store
====
It doesn't work! Anything doesn't change.
In conclusion, I didn't solve this yet!
Plz, solve this problem or fix it!.

This is a double posting, please only post in one discussion at a time.
Keynote 6.5 is stable and reliable under Yosemite for most users.
As with all new operating systems and applications, a small number of users find a few problems.
Copy and pasting text from and into Keynote from all the applications I have, work perfectly: the applications include; Safari, Mail, Word, PowerPoint, excel, Pages, Numbers, iMovie, Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator.
If you want to place graphics into Keynote, use one of the following methods:
Insert > Coose
click the media button on an image placehoder
click the media button on the tool bar
drag and drop from a Finder window
Copy and pasting images into Keynote is not supported

Would like to implement my own smart copy&paste

I am considering developing the following facility:
(1) An Acrobat plugin that implements a rubberband rectangle a copies its content to the Windows "copy&paste" buffer.
(2) A SolidWorks Macro/Addin which would take the set of lines from the buffer and paste them into the sketch.
Obviously, my question refers to part (1) only.
The rubberband (rectangular lasso) sounds like a lot of work, so a Version 1.0 implementation could be to zoom into the desired rectangle with the loupe, and the copied region would be the visible region.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
TIA

That is not 100% accurate. This is what our customers send us in a PDF file (according to the Info, it was created by something called "pdfFactory Pro").
With Illustrator, I removed all the extra stuff and ended with this, in the PDF page:
Next, I navigated the file with CosEdit (thanks for reminding me! It has a Decode Streams feature). The stuff below has some serious ressemblance to PostScript.

Safari freezes when I click the Share button or when I try to right-click on the URL to copy/paste

The Address bar and Share functions in Safari cause it to crash/freeze when I try to share or copy/paste the URL. Any ideas/solutions?

Might be an incompatible Safari extension or plug-in causing the freeze ...
Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plug-ins.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that off if there are any installed. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn extensions back on then uninstall one a time to test.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Extend the timeline by copy paste

I'd like to copy and paste a set of keyframes and frames at the end of the exisiting timeline... maybe several times to extend the timeline.
However I've been a bit flumoxed as to how a simple chore like that is done. It does not appear one can copy the frames, then set the cursor at the end and past the frames ahead of cursor,
Or do I have to create multiple layers to get the same effect by placeing them end to end down the timeline.
In the included screen shot, I'd like to copy/paste the frames on layer1 on down the time line but still on layer 1.
As you can see I've started using layers to create the same effect... but is that really the way to do it?

meglomor wrote:
click on frame 1 of layer one

release the mouse and shift
hold down pc:ALT mac: Option and click anywhere in the selected/highlighted tween span and drag the frames to the right.
this technique will work on multiple layers as well.
Ahhh cool. A little different than some applications but still sort of obvious now I see how its done.

I have a website that I am building. Transferring word docs to the site by copy/paste does not work with firefox.Why?

I am trying to complete my website data entry with fire fox since the security of internet explorer is questionable. I am having no success in transferring written or graphic documents from Fire Fox to my website.

I assume this is a sitebuilder tool. Could you mention which sitebuilder it is?
Is the problem that a paste button provided by the sitebuilder does nothing when you click it? This could be related to a Firefox security feature that bars sites from reading your Windows clipboard. Or it could just be broken. If it's a sitebuilder button, I could look into past threads for possible solutions/workarounds.
For pasting text, instead of using a button provided by the sitebuilder, can you use one of the Windows shortcuts?
* Ctrl+v
* right-click > Paste
* Edit menu > Paste ''(if you use the classic menu bar)''
That might not work with images...
Finally, I will say that Internet Explorer 11 is a pretty solid product. If you need to use it for your website builder tool because it only works well in IE, I don't think you are taking a lot of security risk there. Just don't stray over to random sites you don't trust.

SCC3 doesn't show the running client copy log

Hi All,
I have successfully exported my production data and now trying to import it into our sandbox instance.
Before doing the import, i have delete the client "150" and then created a new client with the same number and started the import using tp command.
I tried the below
tp addtobuffer PERKT00008 SER pf=TP_DOMAIN_SER.PFL u18
This is tp version 340.16.24 (release 640, unicode enabled)
Warning: Parameter DBHOST is no longer used.
Warning: Parameter DBLIBPATH is no longer used.
Warning: Parameter DBNAME is no longer used.
Warning: Parameter DBSWPATH is no longer used.
Addtobuffer successful for PERKT00008
tp finished with return code: 0
meaning:
Everything OK
sapsbox:seradm 59> tp import PERKT00008 SER client150 pf=TP_DOMAIN_SER.PFL u18
This is tp version 340.16.24 (release 640, unicode enabled)
Warning: Parameter DBHOST is no longer used.
Warning: Parameter DBLIBPATH is no longer used.

This is R3trans version 6.13 (release 640 - 25.07.06 - 17:34:00).
unicode enabled version
--> After that the OS prompt does move further. I logged on to the new client 150 as sap* and run scc3. This current import is not shown in it. The last log available is the delete log
What should i do.? At the other end, under the directory /usr/sap/trans/tmp, there is one file with the exact timestamp and the export version number getting grown up. I keep monitoring that file and it shows as

Hi Jagadeesh
Can you please check:
- Transaction STMS -> sandbox import queue -> import history. If your export is there you should be able to access the log file there.
- /usr/sap/trans/log for logfiles starting with either PERKT00008 or KT00008

The options to copy/paste/add comment are not appearing when I select a cell, any idea what I have done?

I was working on a spreadsheet, adding comments (yellow comment area), then I decided to see what these arrows do (< > ) I can see they are used for skipping through the comments. But now when I try to add another comment, the option doesn't appear, as well as when I select a cell, the options to delete, copy, cut, paste, etc. do not appear either...
Does anyone know what I've done and how to fix it?!

Which apps work with the new audio copy/paste feature?

I just installed the update to GarageBand for iPad and tried to use it with apps that support Sonoma's AudioCopy technology (Molten, BassLine). I could not get the copied tracks to paste into GarageBand. Has anyone come across iPad music apps that actually work with this new feature?

In nano studio you need to open the TRG-16 instrument, and click on EDIT button in the bottom left. Then select the pad you want to use to trigger the audio you are about to paste. On the edit screen that follows, press the sample load button, and on the sample load screen you find the paste button. Pressing this should reveal a list of samples on the clipboard, select one, hit paste and you should be done! Hope that helps!

Pages Copy & Paste Style Buttons don't change font size and style?

Shouldn't the font size and style also be copied and pasted when I use the buttons to copy & paste the style within a page?

Hello
It seems that the description of these buttons in the Help is not clear.
After several attempts, one may understand that they don't apply to attributes inserted "by hand" with cmd + B for instance but to "styles" defined in the Styles drawer.

My SDK doesn't implement Cipher, course of action

Hi, all. First of all let me tell you that I've checked the forum for this topic. Found 44 threads when searching for "Cipher". I've pretty clear that due to restrictions from the U.S. Goverment, the Sun JC kit doesn't implement the Cipher class. That's understood.
Now, my SmartCard Vendor (DataCard Aptura) doesn't implement it neither the Cipher class on it's sdk. I've asked for support and they have told me that they won't add that Class. So I can't count on them.
So, the purpose of this post is to find out the course of action. I've just two options, either I implement the class by myself or I get it (buy it, if it's possible) somewhere else. I don't want you to do my work, I just need some light because I'm new to this cryptography over smartCard thing.
So I've this questions which require short answer (hope so):
1.) According to your experience, should we implement it by ourselves? Or should we look for some vendor that has already implemented it?
2.) I that were the case (that we should implement it by our own) could you estimate the amount of time (or resources) needed, considering just one programmer.
3.) Are there some special considerations that I should take in order to save memory. Please notice that the current version of Aptura prohibits the use of transient arrays on the card, due to a bug inside the core of the VM. It doesn?t reclaim the space after it?s been used, for instance after a reset, it won?t reclaim the all the transient space used.
4.) If it would take a considerable amount of time to implement the Cipher class by our own, do you know some vendor that has already implemented and can save us that time?
Any other light or aspect that you might think it's important and I've missed here, would be appreciated.
Many Thanks in advance.
CL

Well no. All I want is to have cryptography on my card (that I didn't choose for the project I just received like "this is the card"). And this vendor doesn't have an implementation of the Cipher class.
As a parenthesis () there is not Int as you properly mentioned, but I implemented by hand, unsing Zhiqun Chen proposal (on her book JavaCard Technology for SmartCards). I know that approach is not quite efficient, but it works (considering that for financial purposes a short is not enough).
Well, back to our business. Also I'm concious that the approach of implementing the cryptography by myself would not win the efficiency award for Smart Card, but I need to do something and trying to change the card at this point (I didn't choose it, as I told you) would not be the first solution, due to the fact that the production cards are already ordered. So that's the actual situation.
So, I'm pretty sure the problem is on the side of my vendor. Is not that I'm washing my hands on him, it's just the fact. Here you'll find my little test I'm trying to run. It crashes after the following line on the process (APDU apdu) method:
cipher.doFinal(data, START, (short) data.length, cipherText, START);

How does the servlet implement the multi-thread feature?

There is only one instance of every servlet in one wep application.
When several clients invoke the doPost() method of the same servlet,the servlet can process their request respectively.
So there much multi threads of one servelt.
But the Servlet doesn't implement the Runnable interface of extends the Thread class.
I wan't to know,how does the servlet/servlet container implement the multi-thread feature?

Hi johnnylzb
There is only one servlet instance existing.
(assuming u have <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>)
The server creates a thread for every request ..
and all the threads access the same servlet instance.
For this its not necessary for the Servlet to extend Thread or Runnable.
hope this helps

Is there a way to copy & paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?

Hello Popular Premiere Pontificaters,
I am using Premiere 6 on a Windows 7 machine.
Is there a way to copy and paste a clip from the timeline in one project in to another project?... I can copy my clip, but when I open the other project, it will not allow me to paste it in there... but I am able to copy and paste a clip within a single project. I tried everything... pasting in to a new video track and pasting in to an existing video track in the second project, but the paste option simply isn't there when I open the second project.
And if Premiere itself will not allow me to do this in any way, will a copy-paste clipboard type of accessory app allow me to do this?... if so, which is the best, trustworthy copy-paste app that is malware free?
Thanks,
digi

Hi Bill Hunt,
I just read the page that you provided about "Handles"... thanks allot for that ARTICLE. In your article and the subsequent article HANDLES, "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" linked from your article, it indicates (in PrE and PrPro anyway - I'm in Premiere 6) that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks... the paragraph below is a quote from that "Transitions Overview: applying transitions" article...
"Whatever is below the transition in a Timeline panel appears in the transparent portion of the transition (the portion of the effect that would display frames from the adjacent clip in a two-sided transition). If the clip is on Video 1 or has no clips beneath it, the transparent portions display black. If the clip is on a track above another clip, the lower clip is shown through the transition, making it look like a double-sided transition."
So this indicates that transitions can be applied to non-Video 1 tracks since it is referring to content in tracks beneath a transparent fade that would show through... and only non-Video 1 tracks can be transparent and have other clips "beneath" them in the timeline, right?
In the screenshot sample in your article at this LINK, I see the handles (referred to as B and E) and I can see in my monitor window how those handles would be represented by the two little bracket symbols { } ... you can see how they appear in my monitor window in Premiere 6 in this screenshot, and below, from a different thread that isn't related to this topic.
But I'm still trying to figure out how the handles can be applied in the non-Video 1 tracks in the timeline to insert a transition (cross-dissolve) between two clips.
Can you advise me on this?... I posted a separate thread HERE on this topic, but I haven't got any further with finding an answer.
Thanks so much for your article,
digi

Feature Request: Disable target tabs setting destination for copy paste

It might have seemed like a good idea at the time but pasting to the targeted layer causes way more problems than it solves. If for instance if I have 10 video tracks which is quite common and wanted to copy and paste a clip to track 10, I have to turn off the target buttons on all 9 tracks below to do that. I do know about option drag which works but sometimes if you're zoomed out you can't get a hold of the clip you are trying to copy. Also I may need one of those layers to help me copy to the right time but now next edit function doesn't stop on them anymore.
What is important is being able to select which tracks you want PPro to stop at when you hit the next edit keys. For instance if I'm doing a color pass I don't want to stop on audio edits or gfx edits. So If I go through that whole process of turning these things off just to clone a clip I then have to turn them all back on. IMO it doesn't make sense to share these two functions with the target buttons and it's just too tedious in the first place to use the target buttons to set paste destination.
What I think would make sense would be an option that says copy paste follows target selection or copy paste to same layer. Then the target buttons would mainly effect which media in your timeline you want to focus on which is way more important IMO. This could also be done with an extra keyboard function. IE paste to same track or paste to targeted track and have both functions available.
Also I think you should have the option of stopping on the ins and outs with the next edit buttons. It's very common to use an in or out as a quick marker for a point in the timeline where there isn't an edit yet.

Yes I know about alt dragging. Not so great to copy a one second clip in an hour long seq way down. That's the point of it. As it is now it will likely copy to a different track then you want it to so you have to go over and start clicking all kinds of buttons to get the thing to not over write something and maybe / probably all off or all on for the target buttons is nothing close to what you need and you had the buttons how you wanted in the first place. And after you paste you have to click more buttons to set that up again.
So for one: this method of targeted copy / paste is not efficient at all, and two: sharing two totally different functions for the target buttons is not a good idea. A very simple fix is to provide the option of copy / paste to same tracks.
This is an opportunity to do it better than FCP because FCP would copy and paste to the same tracks but it had very bad control over which edits the program stopped on using the next / prev edit keys. It's much more efficient to only stop on the video edits and usually one or two tracks when doing a color pass. In FCP you had to disable the audio tracks to get it to ignore them so that you're not pushing the up and down buttons 5 times more than necessary but then you couldn't hear the audio. When you're doing color you want to hit the button once and be on the next shot. With my suggestion you get to focus on exactly what you want and copy / paste isn't a button-fest. This is like golf. Fewer strokes wins!

Is Copy Paste Pans & Zooms Possible in Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor Slideshow?

In the Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor, someone wants to create a unique pan and zoom effect for one photo and be able to apply it the the rest of the photos in the Filmstrip without having to do that on an individual photo basis.
In the Slide Show Editor, Edit Menu/Apply Pan & Zoom to All Slides or Apply Pan & Zoom to Selected Slide(s) does not get the job done. Instead it looks like it just applies the default Photoshop Elements pan and zoom. I have investigated several routes to the goal unsuccesful and have concluded that Photoshop Elements Slide Show Editor offers no such copy paste pans & zoom feature.
I have detailed how to add more than one pan & zoom per slide, how to get the pan & zoom copy/paste job done in Premiere Elements, either doing all the pan & zoom in Premiere Elements or creating the pan & zoom in Photoshop Elements for one slide, using Send to Premiere Elements, Break Apart Adobe Photoshop Elements Slideshow, copy/paste of the transferred pan & zoom. Believe it or not, that does work. I know that there will be skeptics who feel that the pan & zoom timing would be distored, but....This person does not have or want Premiere Elements in the equation. So, I am looking for a way out for her.
I am posting the question here for someone to confirm my conclusion or offer a way that has escaped me. If someone has found a way, he/she will be fully created for the contribution and thanked.
ATR

Copy and past funtionaliy is not available in pan & zoom feature. Please do a feature request.
