Attaching data to graphics

I'm attempting to create an infographic (involving percentage increase) that is attached to data. My hope is that with images and underlying code, the graphic will automatically react and visual totals will be updated each time new data is put into the code, simplifying updates.
Is this possible with Flash? Does anyone know of a similar solution?
Thanks!

Beautifully succinct, dj but I wonder if that’s what Etti meant by his question? Are you wanting to apply metadata to images in your catalogue but are questioning whether this is possible if you are not physically connected to your files?
In this scenario, yes you can because, as dj says, metadata is actually stored in your catalogue and not in the files themselves. To actually apply metadata changes to the files you have to initiate this specifically and would, as dj says, need to be connected to them.

Report on Contact attached data

Hi Experts,
I am working on CRM 2007 Employee Interaction center. we have a requirement to pull call attached data into crm and later pull it to BI from crm to make reports out of it.
So can anyone share a doc on how to pull contact attached data(CAD) to CRM(config steps) .
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sudhakar,
Call-attached data is optional and comes in addition to data already delivered by the ICI-certified third-party CTI solution. This solution shoud already deliver on each incoming call - out of the box - caller number (ANI), which can be enough to have caller automatically identified.
In case you need additional information to help identify caller, or to gather information that caller has keyed in on his phone during an automated dialog (Interactive Voice Response), then you have the possibility to transfer this extra information from the CTI solution to your SAP CRM system via ICI interface.
What should appear in the CAD is something you have to define with the CTI vendor. Have you checked with your CTI vendor if they don't already have an analysis tool of IVR dialogs ?
Let me present the example of what we did during an integration with a Cisco CTI, used in a service scenario where callers refer to service requests (creation, inquiry):
We agreed with the CTI vendor that they set-up an IVR script where caller gets asked if he is calling about an existing service request or not. If yes, he is asked to enter the number of the service request. If not, he is asked to answer 2 questions that will already help the agent who gets the call to better qualify it. Relevant answers are also displayed in the IC alert area; they are clickable (e. g. to directly navigate to service request).
We then agreed on following xml tags:
<ItemAttachedData>
<Application id="SAP-IC">
    <CV01>+321234567</CV01>          caller number (CLID)
    <CV02>+327654321</CV02>          called number (DNIS)

In SAP CRM customizing, you can specify an XSL transformation to postprocess this CAD. It is interesting to note that SAP's implementation of the XSLT processor allows call of ABAP methods, where you can easily code evaluation of CAD, and even save CAD to a custom DB table.
If you want to learn more about XSLT and ABAP, I recommend following book; it is a good investment!

PDF flyer with attached Data Form how do i upload pdf and submit data simultaneously?

Scenerio user downloads pdf flyer template with attached data form. user customizes flyer and fills out form. user clicks on custom "Submit" button to send form data to php form.
On submit, how can i upload the pdf flyer to our server AND still send the form data to php form?
maybe the local file(pdf) address is sent to the php form along with the form data, then i can use php to upload the file automatically.
any sugguestion???

Hi Mr AP,
are you trying to do this in Reader or in Acrobat? If you're using Reader it won't work unless the form is reader-extended by either LC Reader Extensions on the server or by running it through Acrobat manually and extend the capabilities of the form for reader users (careful - the license of the latter is limited to 500 form recipients).
If you did try it in Reader with a non-extended form the behaviour you'd see is that it just won't work, so that might be your issue.
Cheers

How to attach data to url of a jsf page in sun creator

Can somebody tell me how to attach data to url of a jsf page for example String url="http://w-ngphc-0672.ng.ad.ep.corp.local:8080/Questionnaire/QuestionnaireConnector.jsp?ticket_id="+C.getTicket_id(); accesing this url uses value of C.getTicket_id() and populate the jsp page. How can I achieve this using jsf page in sun creator .
I'm developing a workflow where url is sent to people and on clicking of the url it takes them to the form of the particular sender with its id attached to the url of the page.

Here's how I do something similar:
<ui:hyperlink binding="#{dfrReviewPage.hyperlink4}" id="hyperlink4" style="text-decoration: line-through"
text="DFR #{currentRow.value['d1.replacesdfr']}"
url="/getReport/DFR#{currentRow.value['d1.replacesdfr']}.pdf?reportId=#{currentRow.value['d3.replacesformat']}&exportType=0&id=#{currentRow.value['d1.replacesdfr']}" visible="#{currentRow.value['d1.replacesdfr']!=null}"/>As you probably gathered from the currentRow var this is embedded in a table but it could be bound to any bean type object.

Question on Data Driven Graphics (non-English)

(CS5-MAC) Data Merge and Data Driven Graphics

Apologies in advance if this is slightly off topic, but I need some opinions and insight here.
I've been using InDesign since its creation and have recently been pushing the Data Merge feature of ID to its limits. My colecandoo blog highlights some of what I have achieved.
However, there are some things which the Data Merge cannot do, such as warping live text which can be done in Photoshop or Illustrator. But, I've recently learnt of the term "Data Driven Graphics" and that Photoshop and Illustrator handle both. Photoshop accepts txt/csv files and appears to be relatively workable, whereas Illustrator accepts XML which I can't get to work at all and it is frustrating me.
So here are my questions. I know the answer to some of these will most likely be "no" but if i don't ask, i'll never find out.
is there a way to integrate the Data Merge feature of InDesign with the data driven graphics feature of illustrator or photoshop WITHOUT scripting (e.g. something I may have missed)?
If scripting is the only option, is anyone out there actually doing what i'm trying to do, or know of any resources out there that i can look at?
is there a way to make the user unfriendly DDG feature in illustrator actually reference a txt/csv file rather than an XML file? Because I'm working on a Mac, making XML from excel is like putting marshmallows in a piggy bank (e.g. messy and ineffective).
what kind of images can InDesign's Data Merge reference? does it extend to other indesign files or incopy files?
I know there are third party products which can do the above (e.g. XMPie or DirectSmile), but i'm trying to get as much value as i can from the Creative Suite purely off-the-shelf.
here's hoping
colly

>Because I'm working on a Mac, making XML from excel is like putting marshmallows in a piggy bank (e.g. messy and ineffective).
It should be easy, shouldn't it? I found that running the Excel file through Filemaker made valid XML files easily. Import worksheet, export records as XML.
Can't help you with the rest of it.

Call Attached data on Identification screen of IC WebClient

Hi All,
How can we show the Call attached data on IC Agent identification screen of IC WebClient.
I know that we have a logical link IC_CAD which requires a manual click to the navigation bar and view the CAD data.
Is it possible to show the call attached data on identification screen of the IC WebClient.
Thanks,
Raj.

Hello Raj,
I see. Thank you for clarifying. In that case, I should mention that SAP is developing something very similar for the next CRM release (Enhancement Package 1 for SAP CRM 7.0) that uses a generic fact-gathering class via the Rule Modeler to collect the call attached data and make it available for inclusion in alert messages that appear in the context area. This way the agent will be able to see the CAD attributes while on any screen -- including the Identify Account screen. These CAD values could also be used for other purpose, like triggering actions in the Rule Modeler to navigate to certain screens, pull up transactions, etc. Imagine that a customer enters their order number in the IVR. The order number could then be displayed to the agent in an alert. When the agent clicks on the alert, they would navigate to that exact order! Then you can confirm the BP automatically from the order. Nice, huh?
Perhaps you could build out something similar in your version of CRM (whichever release you are on). The CAD data is basically just taken from the name-value pairs in an XML document. I don't think it is stored anywhere in SAP and there are no value helps.
Best regards,
John

Handle task attachment data

Hello all,
I've defined a user task which returns, when completed, some XML data placed in attachment node. However I'm not able to handle such data from BPEL process, no mather what XPath expresion I use.
For example: if returned task has the following content:
<task>
<attachment><node><child>somedata</child><anotherchild>somedata</anotherchild></node>
</attachment>
</task>
¿What XPath expression should I use to extract content of <child> element?
Thanks.

Thanks Mike,
I was adding xml stuff into attachment data as a java.lang.String, I also solved this problem by using org.w3c.dom.Document instead. When the attachment is included as org.w3c.dom.Document object, BPEL process manager is able to browse the xml data with XPath.
Bye.

Cannot attach data store shared-memory segment using JDBC (TT0837) 11.2.1.5

Not enough storage is available to process this command.
If I'm wrong I'm happy to be corrected. If you reduce the PermSize and TempSize of the datastore (just as a test) does this allow JBOSS to load it?
You don't say whether this is 32bit or 64bit Windows. If it's the former, the following information may be helpful.
"Windows manages virtual memory differently than all other OSes. The way Windows sets up memory for DLLs guarantees that the virtual address space of each process is badly fragmented. Other OSes avoid this by densely packing shared libraries.
A TimesTen database is represented as a single contiguous shared segment. So for an application to connect to a database of size n, there must be n bytes of unused contiguous virtual memory in the application's process. Because of the way Windows manages DLLs this is sometimes challenging. You can easily get into a situation where simple applications that use few DLLs (such as ttIsql) can access a database fine, but complicated apps that use many DLLs can not.
As a practical matter this means that TimesTen direct-mode in Windows 32-bit is challenging to use for those with complex applications. For large C/C++ applications one can usually "rebase" DLLs to reduce fragmentation. But for Java based applications this is more challenging.
You can use tools like the free "Process Explorer" to see the used address ranges in your process.
Naturally, 64-bit Windows basically resolves these issues by providing a dramatically larger set of addresses."

Data-driven graphics error

I'm trying to use the data-driven graphics wizard for a card
game some friends and I are creating. Each card has 9 text
variables and 2 image variables. When I run the wizard, it finds
all the variables just fine, but after properly processing one
variable (actually, we've gotten both images to load, but it dies
after one text), it stops, saves the file as is, and tells us:
An error occurred.
An error occurred.
or
An error occured.
Incorrect parameter.
...Useful stuff huh? Here's the source if anyone wants to try
this and investigate the mystery of the crashing graphics wizard:
template:
http://www.freewebtown.com/PhireNexus/ImpRome/template.png
xml:
http://www.freewebtown.com/PhireNexus/ImpRome/cards.xml
We noticed that on the variable-pairing screen, there's an
extra blank variable (it just is blank, no name, but it does exist)
on the xml side. Otherwise, this whole thing is irregularity-free.
Very frustrating stuff.
-----edit-----
Apparently having symbols in the template was causing the
error. Who knows why...

Data driven graphics in CS4?

Hi guys, i recently upgraded to CS4 (been on V.8!)
What is the equivalent to the old data driven graphics wizard by joseph lowery - this command was soooo useful!
I have a feeling that there's something much more complicated to learn to get the same effect - i.e. drawing data from an xml file and creating a set of images / pages / pdfs based upon the data set.
any tips much appreciated

It seems as if the output has an ASCII order. Perhaps a prefix on the template layers will help.

Deleting extra layers generated by data-driven graphics?

I have about 1600 PSD files that I generated using data-driven graphics. They each contain one pixel layer and eleven text layers.
The number of text layers with actual content varies. My original set of data looked something like the following in Excel:
001.jpg     A     B     C
002.jpg     A     D     E     F
003.jpg     B     G
004.jpg     A     C     G     H     I     J     K
005.jpg     F     L     M
And so on. All files have content in at least two text layers, some have all eleven with content.
I discovered right away that Photoshop would not import a data set with blank fields for some text layers, there must be actual text for each text variable. So my Excel VBA script (where I combined spreadsheets to create my data set file) added a period to each otherwise empty cell.
This made my data set look like:
001.jpg     A     B     C     .     .     .     .
002.jpg     A     D     E     F     .     .     .
003.jpg     B     G     .     .     .     .     .
004.jpg     A     C     G     H     I     J     K
005.jpg     F     L     M     .     .     .     .
Photoshop was then happy, imported the data set, and created a folder full of graphics. However, I'm now left with a bunch of files that have a bunch of dots on them. I'm looking for a way (script or macro?) to delete these extra text layers.
Ideally this script could batch process a folder full of files, parsing each text layer and deleting the ones with just a period character.
I'm also fine with regenerating the files if there is a way to not create the unneeded text layers in the first place. I thought about using a visibility variable but the layers would still be there, just hidden. I'm not sure how much that helps me.
I'm a Mac guy but stuck using Windows 7 Pro at work. I have the latest version of Photoshop CC, and some experience with C-like programming languages, so I can handle simple VB or JavaScript hacking if needed.
Any ideas or suggestions or sample code? TIA for the help.

Well since nobody had ideas, I spent some time with the PS scripting documentation. I was also able to find a sample script linked from John Nack's blog to start with. This is actually pretty simple, although switching back and forth from VB to JS is a pain (= in VB, == in JS as an example.)
Presumably this could test for different conditions such as font, or could use a regular expression to find specific text.
main();
function main() {
    if ( app.documents.length > 0 )
    removeExtraTextLayers(app.activeDocument);
//start at index (length-1) to avoid background layer, top layer is index 0
function removeExtraTextLayers(obj){
        for( var i = obj.artLayers.length-1; 0 <= i; i--) {
        try {
        if (obj.artLayers[i].kind == LayerKind.TEXT && obj.artLayers[i].textItem.contents == ".")
            obj.artLayers[i].remove();
        catch (e) {

IWocountered an error while attempting to create the attachment data.
