Are preferences handled differently in LR5

I've noticed that LR5 seems to be occasionally triggering an error code in Windows 7 when I shut it down (I have it set to optimise and backup each time); it's not obvious to me that anything has gone wrong, but apparently Windows thinks it has! I encountered this once before a while ago with LR4, and found that the solution was to trash the preferences file and let it be re-built when LR was next launched. So I figured I'd do the same again, navigated to the correct folder (... users/roaming/adobe/preferences) and deleted the file. So far all seems pretty standard.
However, when I re-launched LR (doing so by double-clicking on the catalogue file as I have it saved in a different location than the default 'pictures' folder) it promptly re-built the preferences exactly as they'd been before: I didn't have to change a thing, other than re-connecting to a plugin. Last time I trashed the prefs in LR4, I had to set everything up again from scratch, right down to the width of the side bars. Somehow, even though I'd deleted the preferences file, it "knew" what my preference settings were.
Anyone have any idea how?? Seems as though the preferences are stored within the catalogue as well - but if they are, what's the point of a separate prefs file at all? This really doesn't seem to correspond with how I thought the preferences worked at all. I wonder if something has changed in how LR5 handles preferences?
**Edit: I had a further think about this... Currently, I still have LR4.4 installed as well, and therefore the preferences file for that is stored alongside the LR5 preferences file on my C drive (same folder). The LR4 preferences are essentially identical to those I have set in LR5 as I didn't need to change anything and they carried across when I installed it. The only thing I did change was the file location of my plug-ins... I therefore wonder if perhaps LR5 read the LR4 preferences file before creating a separate LR5 one? Perhaps the catalogue is still pointing to the old prefs file somehow? Maybe I need to delete the LR4 prefs as well in order to do a proper preferences re-set?

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. Printer drivers for Windows 7 have been installed correctly. It doesn't matter what brand printers are involved. The label printer is the one that has the smaller page size obviously -- brand can
be Cognitive, Godex or Zebra. All respond the same way. If you have the 8 1/2 x 11 printer set to the default printer but you want to print to the label printer about 5 or 6 labels spit out because it is trying to print 8 1/2 x 11 instead of 2.0
x 2.4. It works the opposite way if the label printer is set to the default. If you have the label printer set to the default it will print a tiny report on an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper on the report printer. In this example it is a Canon,
but it doesn't matter what brand the report/invoice printer is. Keep in mind this is choosing the printer from Internet Explorer that you want to print to and even confirming that the printer preferences show correctly from the printer dialogue window
in IE. This is using IE9 but it happens in 8 as well. It DOES NOT happen in Microsoft Word, Chrome or Mozilla. I just sent a 2.0 x 2.4 Word document to the label printer when the default printer was set to the Canon and it print just fine.
I also sent a regular size document to the Canon with the label printer (RT200) set as the default. It also printed normal size. A person should be be able to attach 2 printers to a computer and print to either one from Internet Explorer
and have it use the print preferences assigned to their chosen printer regardless of whether it is set as the default or not. We developed our web-based application to use Internet Explorer so there are other issues that keep us from using another browser
--our customers are told that we only support IE, but if this doesn't get resolved we might have to change that.
Thank you for any help you are able to provide.

Print Preferences handled differently in Windows 7 than XP causing problems for customer locations

Customers use web based application that they run only in Internet Explorer (both 8 or 9). Many of them have a label printer and a report printer attached to the same computer. In Windows XP this was not a problem. But with Windows 7 you
can designate the printer you want to print to from the application but Internet Explorer uses the print preferences for the default printer no matter which printer you choose. Obviously this causes a problem due to the different sizes of paper on the
two printers.
Any ideas for a solution or work around? Having all customers go back to Windows XP is not an option!

Are Transient VO & attributes handled differently ?????????????????????????

Hi All,
i'm using jdev10.1.2, adf bc's and jsp's. I'm having a transient attribute problem. I can populate these values fine, but subsequently if i try and manipulate these transient attributes, their values are all null. I've handled these tranient attributes exactly as you would any regular attribute. i just cant understand why they're not behaving as i would expect.
So my question is, are the transient attributes handled differently??? Is there a property i need to set that i'm missing? do they need to be inserted into views in a special?
If anyone could shed any light in the subject i would be most grateful or even if anyone could point me towards a good site on the subject.....
Thanks,
Liz

Liz,
Have a look at section 28.6 of the ADF Developer's Guide for Forms/4GL Developers (version 10.1.3.1.0 - I don't have the equivalent 10.1.2 version handy. It says, in part:
Transient view object attributes are not passivated by default. Due to their nature, they
are usually intended to be "read only" and are very easily recreateable. So, it often
doesn’t make sense to passivate their values as part of the XML snapshot. However,
by checking the Passivate checkbox on the Attribute page of the View Object Editor
for any transient attribute, you can declaratively configure it to be
passivation-enabled.
Hope this helps,
John

How to handle different languages in Illustrator for big clients?

Hi Guys,
I need small suggestio for 'How to handle different languages in illustrator for big clients'. For instance; Arabic, this is a language which needs to be read from right to left instead of left to right. There are other strange languages as well (Cyrillic, Chinese etc.). It happens also that when you copy strange languages from a word file it will not be easy to paste it the correct way in a .ai file. Besides that, it’s also difficult to do a language check when we are not able to read it!. So, to make a long story short, I want to figure out how we can deal with multiple language circles?
Can you some please give me the solution for this...
Thanks in advance...
HARI

I take it you might come from an arabic background.
Here is how you can help yourself to some degree.
Google has a translation feature and service which is at the moment free. It is excellent.
Secondly if you are working with ME languages you really need the ME version of Illustrator or any other Creative Suites Application in order for it to work properly.
It, is also best to enable the language and the input for that language for your system on the Mac it is easy you go to the Language and text feature in theSystem Preferences, once enabled you can select the fro the menu bar under the American flag if you are in the US. Thst will appear once you have more than one language selected.
You select the language input you need and then a font for that language then paste and edit.
You need fonts on your computer that are of those languages as well.
How to manage this as a work flow well that is something you will have to work on yourself or hire a consultant who specializes in this area.
We had a few visit here when they have come across a snafu. So they exists.

Unable to Connect to 2 Tracks which are in 2 different NWDI Servers

Hi All,
I need to connect to 2 tracks which are in 2 different NWDI Servers using the same NWDS instance.
Track 1 is based on NW 7.0 SP21 and another one is based on SAP NW 7.0 Ehp1 version which are in different NWDI servers.
The problem i am facing is that using the same NWDS, I am unable to connect to the second NWDI server when i already imported the track from the first one.
I have done the following.
Imported the Track for NW 7.0 SP21
I have entered the DTR URL, under Development Configuration pool and then created a DTR Client and imported the track as required into NWDS.
When i want to import the track for Ehp1, i have changed the SLD URL to point to the Ehp1 SLD under Dev. Configuration pool.
I have created a client with the Ehp1 DTR URL, and when i try to import the development configurations and click on Remote,
I am always authenticated against the Build Server of the existing Configuration (ie) NW 7.0 SP21 and i am unable to import the track from the new NWDI Server.
When i completely removed all configurations and try a fresh Connection to Ehp1 first i am able to connect to the track and import.
From there when i try to import NW 7.0 SP21 by changing the Development Configuration Pool URL and by creating a new Client, I used to authenticated against Ehp1 build server instead of SP21 build server. So i am unable to import and work with 2 tracks which are different NWDI servers in a single instance of NWDS.
Please let me know how i can go ahead to get the tracks which are in different NWDI servers to be available in a single NWDS instance. Is it possible by the way?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and Regards,
Sekar

Hi Sekar,
My suggested work around (my personal preference) would be to install the NWDS versions on separate machines to avoid all the troubles and confusion with the default .DTR/.DTC/.metadata folders as mentioned by Pascal in this thread
Multiple NWDS Versions on one Workstation?
IMHO, a different machine also allows you to experiment more freely with another version of browser/client platforms (e.g. IE8/Windows 7/etc.).
In our case, we installed the newer version on developers' machines (oftenly used going forward) and install the older version on another shared machine (used for maintenance only until the cutoff).
Maybe other gurus (who often have to work on several different versions for different customers) can provide us with some tips here.
Hope it helps.

Dao

How can I change how email "from" and "to" are being handled by Groupware?

When a follow-up business activity (e.g. sales visit) is created in CRM and assigned to another by the "person responsible" field, it triggers the following action in Outlook:
u2022 Outlook recognizes that "created by" and "person responsible" are different
u2022 This recognition triggers sending an email invitation for an appointment
u2022Groupware presents / Outllok reads the "person responsible" to populate "from" Email field and "created by" to populate "to" Email field
u2022Outlook Email invitation is received by creator of the assigned follow-up (confusing the user since they are naturally thinking that the person they made responsible for the follow-up would need to accept the assignment)
How can I change how the email "from" and "to" are being handled by Groupware/Outlook ... in standard functionality? ... In custom work?

My jpg files from CR2 edits in CS6/CC are not being imported into LR5.

My jpg files from CR2 edits in CS6/CC are not being imported into LR5. Bridge and Explorer can see them ok. Tried to reimport but LR5 cant see them.
The file numbers are the same as original CR2 but have the jpg extension. TIFFS and PSDs seem ok. Can anybody help please?

how do I get all these files in my catalogue in the correct places cos they scattered around a bit
That's kind of a broad question ... and there are many different approaches ... so I will explain my approach, and other people can explain their approach.
My approach is to assign keywords and optionally captions and titles and other metadata to all of your photos, and use those to organize and search. Then, it doesn't matter what folders things are located in, if you want to see all your pictures of Chicago, you simply click on the arrow to the far right of the keyword Chicago. You don't have to remember what folders to look in, and this works even if the photos are scattered in a dozen different folders. In addition, since photos must be in one and only one folder, that limits your ability to organize; but you can assign as many keywords as you'd like to a photo, so a single photo can have keywords "Chicago" "Zoo" "Elephant" "Vacation" "Illinois" "United States" etc.

RGB Values Different in LR5?

Are the RGB values using the white balance tool different in LR5 than they were in LR4.3? I'm editing the same way but I'm having red/magenta issues in LR5. Thanks for any input you can provide.

I don't think the values are different. The WB tool converts to neutral color, and neutral is neutral.
Is it possible that your red/magenta issues in LR5 are caused by the light situation when shooting?
And, are you talking of Raws or JPGs?
And, which setting are you seeing in Camera Calibration (bottom panel, right side in Develop Module)?
In case the profile used is Adobe Standard, try a different one. Adobe says that the "Adobe Standard" profile enhances yellows and reds. And it does!
I find it too strong (everything has a slight pink cast) and have stopped using it.

11gr1 - Handling different screen resolutions for an enterprise app.

Hi,
We are developing an enterprise application that will be deployed at different clients with different hardware.
We are confused about how to handle different screen resolutions and wonder how others are handling this.
We have some fixed size areas in our screens and liquid areas for content that may expand. The problem is say that you have a table with 6 columns. This table will be rendered nicely at 1280X800 but not at 1650X1050 or 800X600.
At higher resolutions we will either end up having some blank space or expand one of the columns of the table , but can't expand every column proportionally and this will look ugly.
For lower resolutions same problem in a different way will come into picture, we will not able to resize the columns and end up with scroll bars etc ...
What is the best practice with handling different screen resolutions for components like table,panel splitter etc ?
Thanks

Hi Muhammed,
I don't think that any better solution exists, you already use liquid layouts and define widths & heights with percentages etc. In my opinion using blank column at the end of table columns makes table's looking better. Additionally creating custom skin for table and defining column heights & widths with % or em may help you to stretch columns?

Adobe forms: Displaying work area data in different windows

Hi,
I have a requirement of showing work area data in different windows i.e work area which has sent from program needs to come in different windows of the form. I have created a smartform which will perfectly doing the above logic. The above work area also contains amount fields. I am also passing language 'English' or 'French', based on this i am displaying some texts also.
But Client wants to see the same requirement in Adobe forms. Ao i am new to Adobe forms, I need some help for performing the above scenario. I am doing my research on this. But i want to know the steps which will not reduce the performance.
In smartform, first window contains personnel no from work area and the second window contains address from work area. Then i have created a template with employee premium amount column, company premium amount column and total of that, all these from work area. So work area will contain only one row which i have to show in different window and on template.
In Adobe forms, How can i do the same this which i have done in smart forms.
Please suggest me any one in doing this. I appreciate your answers.
Thanks,
s.vikgnesh

Hi,
Yes as Santoosh said there is no such wiondow option in Adobe forms.
But if you use webdynpro java/Abap we can acheive this.
think something like this below, if it works.
have 2 views 1st for the adobe form, 2nd view in a new window for the work area screen.
in the adobe view have a button for the work area and respective event handler.
in the event handler call this window, and then reload the same adobe form.
if from the work area form if you need value to be passed to this adobe form. have a event handler for this.
when purpose is done, close that window and set value to the required context field on the form. and reload that adobe form.
this is a fuzzy process and time consuming, unless business has no other option we dont go this approach.
but for sure this works, we did the same for a EHS process.
Cheers,
Sai

Prepaid handled differently?

My Verizon contract ends in six weeks. I only need 400 to 500 minutes a month and am considering a prepaid plan. I heard recently that prepaid calls are handled differently and are secondary to monthly plans, meaning inability to get through, signal strength, etc. Any truth to this?

We take Prepay service just as seriously as we do with our Postpaid service carianti! We demand the highest quality. Please take a look here for more info on Prepay. In addition, you can reach Prepay sales directly at 1-800-2-JOIN-IN (1-800-256-4646). I'm sorry we only have access to Postpaid plans here.

Port 25 & Port 110 - Are they totally different?

Hi Guys,
I am switching my ISP soon and I am thinking of using O2 Broadband (a UK company). Everything seems really cool apart from one thing. They block port 25. I thought this would be a deal breaker as I use my own domain name to send emails (for example - [email protected]) from my home ran business. I checked out my Mail settings and currently I am sending and receiving e-mails without any issue on PORT 110. I checked this by opening mail preferences and clicking Accounts then Advanced and all of my accounts show as Port 110.
So here is my question and it sounds like a dumb one - if I switch over to a company that blocks port 25 will my port 110 e-mail set up still work without any issue? I know that sounds dumb as they are two totally different ports but I wanted to check for definite as I need my business e-mails to continue to work (obviously!).
Any help or advice is always welcome & thanks in advance!

In a simple world:
your mail client contacts your mail server on port 25
they have an smtp conversation which moves the outgoing message from your client to your server
your mail server contacts the recipient's mail server on port 25
they have an smtp conversation which moves your message from your server to the recipient's server
the recipient's mail client contacts the recipient's mail server on port 110
they have a POP conversation which moves your message to the recipient's mail client
It is possible (but extremely unlikely) that your present mail server is talking to you on port 110 when you send mail. Look in the Account Info tab of Preferences/Accounts, drop down the outgoing server list, select edit server list, and you can see the port usage in the advanced tab there.
You need to talk to whoever is providing your mail server.

Logical systems assignment when SRM and ECC are on 2 different servers

Hi SRM guru's,
What is the standard practice for Logical system creation and assignment when ECC and SRM are on 2 different servers.
I could not able to find which i created a logical system in SRM server which i created in ECC
Same for the ECC also.
how do i assign logical system of SRM to ECC
vice versa.
your prompt response is appreciated.
Regards

Hi Sai,
Logical System Naming/Creation procedure is not dependent on the servers but it is just a logical representation of a system.
As you are trying to name logical systems for ECC & SRM, please follow the below procedure which is usually recommeded by SAP and followed.
Logical System : <SID>CLNT<Client Number>
For Example if you have a client 300 in system DE0 (also called SID), the logical system name will be DE0CLNT300. And it will be same for SRM system.
You can refer the below document which eplains the creation of logical system and RFC destinations etc
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/CABFAALEQS/CABFAALEQS.pdf
Note: Only while configuring the RFC Destination, the servers will play a crucial role.
