Background stage question

Hello Developers,
I normally use the stage colour as the background, but I want to change the colour of the background for one scene in a new IOS app I am coding. This scene will have some objects that are animated. I just want to use a solid colour.
Is the best way to do this is to use bitmaps of small dimensions (say 64 by 64) or to use small vectors shapes, from an efficiency standpoint? I normally set the app with GPU mode and not Direct.
Any links or tips is most appreciated.
Thanks,
Justin

I believe that Flash takes the 100% sized version of the bitmap and sends that over to the GPU. The GPU then scales it to the desired size. One way we use that ability is with Retina graphics, we'll have a 1024 wide stage with a movieclip at 50% size, and inside is a bitmap that is 2048 wide. On Retina screens you get the full quality, not a doubled up 50% version.
As for redraws, you'll only get a hit if the symbol that was sent to the GPU changes. Your scaled or tiled background won't have changed, and so won't have to reload, even if things are moving around on top of it.
If you did tile a bitmap that would take up a little bit more RAM, but not more GPU memory. So, if it's a flat color backdrop it shouldn't matter whether it's scaled or tiled, and if the background has some texture, then a repeating tile would be the better option.
If you haven't played with it yet you should give Scout a try. One thing it can show you is which areas of the screen are having to be reloaded.

Question related to my previous "background process" question.

Hello Folks:
Can I start a "Notification Service Subscriber" process through the
normal startup procedure for other servers---i.e. by adding it to the
config(ubb) file. If so, can I implement the background process as two
different CORBA servers calling each other asynchronously to accomplish
the work. Please let me know if there is any other way to accomplish
what I have stated in the "background process" question.
Thanks,

Stationary/Background pictures question.

Hello, I just had a quick question. I am a new Mac user, I have always used a PC before, and I just bought a mac which I have had for about a week. Anyways, my question is... is there any way to put stationary/background pictures on the e-mail? I can't find any anywhere on my computer, and I just want to know if I am overlooking it or not, and if there isn't any stationary, is there a way to get some? Thanks.
As for the computer that I have, it is a Mac OS X Version 10.4.9, and the Processor is 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

I don't believe this is possible within Mac OS X Mail in Tiger but it will be in Leopard. You should check out some of Apple's iCards for now.

Page Background Change Question

i do not know the technical language to use to ask this question, and for that i apologize.
Anyway, i was wondering two things.
i am wanting to create a newsletter larger than the average size (more like newspaper size). i can choose the size in page set up, however, the template that i use does not appear to resize with the new page size. So, the background (in this instance the grey background used with the "Extreme Newsletter" template does not resize with the page. If i select that background, i see it outlined with a very slim blue line with little x's at the corner... but i can't resize the image, change the color, or do anything else to it. So that background only takes up about a quarter of the page...
Can these backgrounds be changed? If so, how do i do it, i can't seem to find anything on this in help...

Oh my god! That was so easy and right in front of me all the time... lol. THANK YOU!!! i have literally spent several hours fiddling with this thing and searching the web, the help file... everything.
thanks again!

Quick background image question

I think this is a simple question, but maybe it's not.
Basically I want an image to behave like the background images on
Prada.com. It scales based upon
width and crops the height. It seems to be anchored to the
top-right corner, unless you get fairly narrow then it isn't
anchored anymore, and it stops scaling the image. I have two large
displays and no matter how wide I stretch my window it just keeps
scaling the image. How would I go about doing this?

Critical Roles & RAR Background Jobs Question

Hello,
I have the following queries, related to GRC AC 5.3 RAR.
1- I would like to include all roles starting with S* into critical roles.
My question is can I say S* in critical roles, OR do I have to manually enter each & every role starting with S* (Please note that currently we have around hundreds of roles starting with S and entering each of them manually is a tedious task).
2- We have several background jobs scheduled in RAR and when I click search button, I get a list of around 600 jobs executed in the past few months.
My question is can I purge the background jobs history in such a way that, when I click "SEARCH" button, I get only those background jobs, which have been executed in the past 1 week?
Thanks,
Haleem

Hi Varun,
I created message with SAP in the component GRC-SAC-SCC and below is the response.
Dear Customer,
You have to manually enter each & every role in critical roles section and the exclude objects in management report section.
SAP GRC AC 5.3 SP11 does not support wildcard operations in critical roles/ profiles and exclude objects of management reports. We will support the wildcard in future SAP Versions of GRC.
Thanks
Based on the above message, I understand that I will have to enter all the roles manually for critical roles in critical roles section of RAR -> rule architect and exclude objects of management report section.
Thanks,
Haleem

TR Background processing question

To All
We currently receipt stock in MIGO and get a GR slip. Then we use LB10 to putaway using TO in Foreground. My question is what config do I need to set up to use TC in Background? What paperwork is generated to advise staff where to put stock if TO in Background is used? Is there a 'putaway' list when the background processing is selected.
We currently have no other warehouse stock strategies. (No fixed bin management, no capacity check, etc)
We currently use the material master default bin (which is printed on the GR slip) to suggest the putaway location.
I want to get away from using TO in foreground to speed up putaway processing
Regards
Darren

Darren,
TO or TC or both ?
For immediate TO creation:
In config.
LE \ WM \ Interfaces \ IM \ Define Movement Types
In the second table, according to the parameters you want e.g. Movement Type, set 'A' in the 'Immediate' column
Alternatively consider background generation (by prog. RLAUTA10) by setting per movement type.
In config.
LE \ WM \ Activities \ Transfers \ Set up Autom. TO creation
And step through the settings.
Regards,
Nick

JButton background color question

Hi everybody,
I have a feeling I'm going to get slammed for this, but I have to ask a very general question and hope for an answer.
I have a JDialog on which buttons don't seem to hold their background color. That is, when I use setBackground, the only color change I get is a very thin outline of the color, and the rest of the button is white. The strange thing about the button is that the white center actually seems transparent--if I change the panel the button is on to another color besides white, the center of the button turns that color.
I've tried to solve this problem with setOpaque( true ), setContentAreaFilled( true ), setBackground( color ), setForeground( color ), and I'm pretty sure every combination of those.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce this in a test case, so I can't give a SSCCE, although I've tried for a while now to make one.
So...has anyone ever run into a problem like this and can give me some advice? I'm sorry I can't be more specific, if anyone has a question I'll do my best to answer.
Thanks,
Jezzica85

I have a feeling I'm going to get slammed for this, but I have to ask a very general question and hope for an answer.Why would people be harsh on you? The only risk you take is: vague question => vague answer (or random).
So...has anyone ever run into a problem like this and can give me some advice? I'm sorry I can't be more specific, if anyone has a question I'll do my best to answer.Never seen that myself, so I'll add a few random questions/thoughts:
I have a JDialog on which buttons don't seem to hold their background color. That is, when I use setBackground, the only color change I get is a very thin outline of the color, and the rest of the button is white.- are you using a custom JButton subclass? If yes are you certain the subclass does not override paintComponent()?
- If not, the button is painted by its ButtonUI. Can you tell which UI class is used (sysout(+theButton.getUI()+)?
The UI is set according to the LookAndFeel.
- Do you set any special LookAndFeel (+UIManager.setLookAndFeel(...)+, or look and feel's UIDefault properties in your app (generally that is done at startup)?
- If not, can you tell the current look and feel when you bring up the dialog (+UIManager.getLookAndFeel(...)+, although that can be inferred from the ButtonUI subclass' name.
I've tried to solve this problem with setOpaque( true ), setContentAreaFilled( true ), setBackground( color ), setForeground( color ), and I'm pretty sure every combination of those.FYI, the ButtonUI paints the button however it sees fit; in particular it doesn't have to respect the colors, opacity, filling... properties.
Eventually:
- are you using a custom JDialog subclass (probably, as that's generally how people write dialogs; not the best way IMHO, but there are cases where this is hard to avoid).
I see you can't provide an SSCCE right ow, but maybe you can try to narrow the list of suspects in your side?
- Do you reproduce the same problem at startup, if you bring the JDialog up as soon as possible?
- Do you reproduce the problem with a mere JOPtionpane.showMessageDialog(..., theButton,...)?
- Do you reproduce the problem outside of the JDialog context (I see you mention using a different JPanel, but is that in the dialog or somewhere else?
Good luck with your investigations.

Some background porcess question

Hi~
I have some confuse question about background process.
1.When I set ALTER SYSTEM CHECKPOINT,all dirty buffers are written,is it include non commit transaction entry??
2.When there is 1MB of redo log buffer,LGWR writes redo entries to the redo log files,is it include non commit transaction redo ?
when a datafile damaged,we restore it from backup,and roll forward from all archive log and online redo log file,how did oracle know what data need rollback? is the undo segment will keep these uncommit transaction so it know who need rollback?

Shu shic chun -
1.
When a buffer in the database buffer cache is modified, it is marked dirty. A cold buffer is a buffer that has not been recently used according to the least recently used (LRU) algorithm. The DBWn process writes cold, dirty buffers to disk so that user processes are able to find cold, clean buffers that can be used to read new blocks into the cache
2.Sometimes, if more buffer space is needed, LGWR writes redo log entries before a transaction is committed.
These entries become permanent only if the transaction is later committed.
After rolling forward, the data blocks contain all committed changes. They may also contain uncommitted changes that were either saved to the datafiles before the failure, or were recorded in the redo log and introduced during cache recovery.
Undo blocks (whether in rollback segments or automatic undo tablespaces) record database actions that should be undone during certain database operations. In database recovery, the undo blocks roll back the effects of uncommitted transactions previously applied by the rolling forward phase.
After the roll forward, any changes that were not committed must be undone. Oracle applies undo blocks to roll back uncommitted changes in data blocks that were either written before the crash or introduced by redo application during cache recovery. This process is called rolling back or transaction recovery.

Background encoding question

Still trying to figure out why I'm suddenly not able to burn an 8.5 minute movie after 14 hours of waiting........then I noticed that when I select certain themes, I get a status bar for both the movie & the theme in the background encoding section of the status panel (for example, Montage theme). On other themes, I only get a status bar for the movie (and not the theme). I thought I always had 2 bars. Could this somehow be keeping me from getting out of Stage 4? Years ago I downloaded Ola's patch, and things ran well from that point on. Is there a new patch I need to download or something?
iMovie 4.0.1
Mac OS X, version 10.3.0
450 MHz Power OC G4

Hi
just thinking
Mac OS X.3.9 (my favourite)
QuickTime 6.5.2
iM & iDVD v 4 - don't know latest no:
a 450MHz G4 would take about 20-30 hour per hour of movie to encode
for iDVD.
49Gb free is OK (I try not to go under 25Gb)

Background VI question

I need to have a VI running on the background constantly monitoring a value measured by DAQ. I want to put the value on top of the screen, and some other VI need to pull the value from this background VI from time to time. I guess I can use a background VI and a global constant to transfer data between this VI and others, but I(or other users) will have to remember to open and run at least two VIs and have two windows on the screen. Is it possible to put everything in one VI?

The simple answer to your question is yes. In order to give a more specific answer the question needs to be more well defined.
It sounds like you have not read the portion of the manual with regard to creating and using subvis. Any vi that you have written can be used as a subvi in another program. You just need to set it up for wiring. There are also a number of ways to pass data between running vis (queues, notifiers, LV2 globals, etc.). Each has its merits and weaknesses and should be decided based upon your specific needs. I suggest that you read these sections of the manual and then if things aren't clear you'll be able to more clearly articulate your question.

Changing the size of a background on Question Slides

Hi All,
I have a Question Pool and I would like the background of the slides to be the same as one i use for a ppt presentation. I have copied the background and used the 'Paste as Background' option you get when right-clicking. It pastes the image but the image is smaller than the slide itself. Does anyone know how to change the size of the background so that it fits the size of the slide?
Thanks.

Hi there
Okay, so it would seem to me that you may not fully understand Captivate and resolutions. So heres the deal.
It appears that you are expecting the image to stetch to fill the entire computer screen. You stated you cannot get the image to size beyond 1440 pixels. Well, this is because your project is sized at 1440 pixels.
Remember, the Captivate movie will usually be played back to the viewer from inside a web browser. Normally you want the movie size to be smaller than the surrounding browser. Like this:
In the example above, the White part of what is inside the browser may be the width of the Captivate movie.
Does this make better sense?
Cheers... Rick

Simple "next" buttons & off stage question

Hi, just getting myself reaquainted with Flash after not using it since ActionScript 1.0 was around.
I'm having trouble creating a simple "storybook" for my son. I'm wanting to add a "next" button in the corner of each page to jump to (and play) the next scene. I've tried with frame labels and numbers, been searching online for 2 days but nothing I've found seems to work.
Can anyone help?
here is the fla file: http://db.tt/IbZeiv6
Also, the things I make are for my Android phone and tablet, is there a way I can stop the things off stage from showing?
for example, I am making it mainly for my tablet, but if I play it on my phone, it has a slightly different aspect ratio so there's white borders at the top & bottom (project has a white background) and if something is slightly off stage it shows over the white background at the top/bottom, is there a way to stop this?
thanks in advance

Should be like this:
stop();
cover_next.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClick);
function buttonClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop(1,"Page1");
For off stage please use mask on the stage. Better change your framerate(FPS) to 24.

Down-Level Stage Question/Problem

Hi,
As I understand it, the down-level stage image should display when an Edge animation is viewed in a browser with Javascript disabled.
If that is correct, then it's not working for me, either in preview in browser from Edge Animate, or when published and used in a site built with Muse.
Tested with IE 9, FF 16.01, Opera 12.02 w/ JS disabled. In all cases, neither the animation nor the poster displayed.
Yes I've read the replies to Vancouver Joel's post re: "down level does not work" at
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4730549#4730549
but nothing there helps.
My animation is very simple; it uses just native ellipses, text using arial fonts, nothing special.
The poster image that I selected is present when I inspect the down-level stage.
Same problem occurs with a more complex animation.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hey wbaafs, the downlevel stage will not appear with JS disabled as it requires gathering information from the preloader.js file. However, you can manually mak your own fallback by using the noscript tag:
<noscript>
<div id="Stage" style="background-image:url('yourposter.jpg')">
</noscript>
