Bug? Format choices sometimes don't agree with the data type

I discovered (while experimenting) what seems to be a small bug when editing properties of numerics:
Unless the number is in an integer representation, the special integer formats (Decimal, hex, octal, binary) are greyed out.
So let's start out with a DBL numeric control and open the properties window. We can change the representation on the "data type" tab of the properties dialog to an integer (e.g. I32), and the control immediately changes color accordingly. However, if we go back to the formatting tab, the integer specific formats are still greyed out. They should now be accessible!
Only after exiting the properties dialog and opening it again, the correct format are no longer greyed and can now be selected.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will be notifying our Research and Development group as was this was a previous CAR that was believed to have been fixed in 2011.

Issue with the Data Type 'Number' in Business Objects

Hi,
I have an Object in the Universe where the Data Type of the Object is a number. This Column pertaining to this Object has certain values in the database out of which there is a 17 Digit Value which is 00000000031101165.
Now, when trying to retreive the same value through Business Objects it is getting rounded off to 00000000031101200 automatically when trying to view in Webi and when trying to retreive the same in Designer/Deski, it displays as 0.000000003110116E+16.
So, I would like to know if there is any other alternative in trying to retreive the Original Value that would not round off. Also, do we have any Limitation for the Data Type Number in Business Objects? The Version we are on is XI3.1.
Note: There are no functions that are used on this Object at the Universe Level and would not like to use any functions here.

What is the underlying database?
It looks like the data is considered to have two decimals, but is rounded to zero decimals.
Only you don't see the number formatting.
Is this a BW query?
Is this a calculated keyfigure?
In the query you can specify the rounding you want and it is also possible to specify it on an infoobject level.
Check those settings...
Hope this helps,
Marianne
PS. Oh, and about the formatting, you can specify a default object format in the universe and override it on the final client (WebI, Crystal)

The data type of the variant is not compatible with the data type wired to the type input.

Hello all..
Iam curently struggling with the following:
On my main(top)_VI, I have a mix-signal graph which will output several or one signals depending on the user. I also have an inner subvi which has the analisys i want to give the the data before outputing it to the main(top) VI, which has the mix-signal graph control.
Now, I created a reference from the mix-signal graph and Iam imputing this reference into the subVI (which inside has a property node type_control_mix-signal graph in which Iam connecting the refnum from the top VI to view the output data). The data consists of an array of clusters of 2 arrays of doubles each.
-- let say I create the property node type control mix-signal graph and i choose value property; it lets me put the array of clusters of 2 arrays of doubles each without problems; Now the second I connect the refnum pointing to the mix-signal graph on the Main_VI it brakes the cables and only accepts one cluster of two arrays os doubles instead.
--if on the other hand I connect the refnum to the property node type_control_mix-signal graph before connecting the imput it doesnt complain until I run the VI where it gives the error 91.
I have also notices a (strict) parenthisis at the end of the property node sometimes. [what does this (strict) means?]
FInally if instead of creating the refnum from the Main_VI, I create either a xy graph or a mix-signal praph it lets me connect the an array of clusters of 2 arrays of doubles each without any problem. The refnum connection seems to be the problematic factor, but by the same tolken I dont know any other means of sending that data from the inner to the outter VI.
I have the feeling Iam missing on one or more Labview fundamentals regarding refnums.
Any help will be apreciated

You almost found it on your own. The refnum needs to be 'strict', that means that the data type of the graph is set (2D dbl), otherwise it will use the default data type. To do this you create the refnum directly from the graph after you have wired the correct data type to the terminal. In this case the refnum wire will break if you change the data type of the graph.
Independend of this issue, I suggest you not to use the value property on the graph but directly wire the data (e.g. the 2D double) to the SubVI. The property value is by far the slowest way to get data, and 2D arrays are really some amount of data.

Problem with the data type in layout

Hi friends,

Number of Decimal Places
A program symbol of one of the data types DEC, QUAN, and FLTP can contain decimal place data. Use the option below to override the Dictionary definition for the number of decimal places for the formatting of this symbol value.
Syntax
&symbol(.N)&
The EKPO-MENGE field contains the value 1234.56. The Dictionary definition specifies 3 decimal places and an output length of 17.
&EKPO-MENGE& -> 1,234.560
&EKPO-MENGE(.1) -> 1,234.6
&EKPO-MENGE&(.4) -> 1,234.5600
&EKPO-MENGE&(.0) -> 1,235

Why the objects of sysman are created with the data type varchar2 CHAR

Hi,
I have an environment with the following properties,
NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS BYTE
NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8
After I have created the db control repository, I find the data type of the sysman's objects are
VARCHAR2 (64 CHAR)
Why?

NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS does not apply to tables in SYS and SYSTEM. The data dictionary always uses byte semantics.

Smart Album : Inconsistency in the Date Type format used inside Aperture ?

Hello,
After using Aperture 2.0 for some days, I tried to create a Smart Album using as creation option for the Album the Date + "is in the Range" option which is leaving two blank fields for filling the two dates which are supposed to be the date limits of the pictures that the user wants to select.
My OS X is set to the italian language so our date format is the dd/mm/yy type.
When I tried to insert some dates in our format (dd/mm/yy) the SmartAlbum seemed to not work at all (not selecting any picture, or was coming out with weird results).
After checking carefully that there was no filter set which could prevent the correct visualization of the pictures I had no explanation for the problem.
At first I thought that this specific option was buggy as the other Smartalbum creation options (Keywords etc.) seemed to work properly.
Then I had the idea and I tried to use the english format (mm/dd/yy) for the two dates inside the date range fields and to my surprise everything worked properly.
So basically it seems that Aperture recognises the dates correctly only giving in input the american date format mm/dd/yy.
What is not so noice is that there is no check on the date limit correctness so basically it is possible to really mess up with the dates.
I'm also actually surprised the Aperture doesn't complies with the OS X date type which could seem the logical thing to do or at least is not consistent with the date type management inside the program because for example the pictures Dates are instead correctly listed in the List View of the browser according to the OS X date type (dd/mm/yy).
I was wondering what is happening in countries where the date separator is not the "/" but the "." like typically used in Germany which would add another variable to the software routine which is interpreting the date input fields.....
Maybe this could help other non english users who could have been confused like me on the same issue....
Did you notice the same behaviour ? Am I missing something ?

Smart Albums will search in the Folder/Project that is shown at the top of the search HUD as well as all Folders and Projects "below" in your structure. However, it will not search through any Albums in that structure. Here is an example:
You images are always stored in Projects (yellow icons) and lets say this is how it looks:
FolderA/ProjectA (this Project stores: ImageA1, ImageA2)
FolderA/ProjectB (this Project stores: ImageB1, ImageB2)
Let us say that you have two Albums like below but there is an image from ProjectB in AlbumA, which looks like this:
FolderA/ProjectA/AlbumA (this Album has pointers to: ImageA1, ImageA2, ImageB1)
FolderA/ProjectB/AlbumB (this Album has pointers to: ImageB1, ImageB2)
If you create a Smart Album below ProjectA it will only show ImageA1 and ImageA2 since it only search ProjectA and not AlbumA.
This may be the issue you have.
Are you 100% sure that the Project your Smart Album is pointing at does include the images you are trying to search through. As you see above then it won't find them if they are only in the albums below that project.
Here are a few rules that I follow in order to avoid getting confused over where my images are located: A) Only include images in albums below a project that are stored in that project. B) Create all my smart albums at top library level and if necessary add extra filters like project name.
Hope you understand.

HT204382 I don't agree with this

I don't agree with this. Any Vid's that ran on my PPC PB now won't run on this Intel iMac. That's a problem.

What's wrong with that new Quicktime that it won't work?
Apple either dropped support for your older media formats in Quicktime or your PPC machine has codecs installed or a automatic installer (like Perian) that made it appear Quicktime can play just about anything.
https://support.apple.com/kb/ht3775
Also a PPC machine only has 10.5, the newer Quicktime on'y supports Intel Mac's with 10.6 or later.
So it's possible that something changed in Quicktime and the codecs it's natively supports.
Perian is no longer being attended too, Quicktime might not be supporting older codecs, your only solution is to install VLC Player for the Mac, hope it works and live with it as there is nothing else anymore.

# of Files in iTunes Music Folders Don't Agree with # of Songs

I regularly monitor the properties of my iTunes folders to ensure that my two computers and backup drives all agree. Recently, for the first time ever the number of files in iTunes Music / artist & album folders did not agree with the number of songs in them.
I tracked it down just artist folders starting with 'A'. The additional files were invisible even with 'show hidden files' selected. There were typically two per album folder and they took up storage space. A security scan did not show a problem. I got rid of them by transferring the music files to new artist & album folders and deleting the ones with the mystery files.
Does anyone know what could have caused this? I am running Windows 7 64b and have had to use the Task Manager to close iTunes a couple of times when it froze. Thanks.

+"And i have done a "Consolidate library". Has anyone else done the same check and noticed similar discrepancies? Are there possibly some files in the iTunes folder that do not end up in the iTunes program?"+
Consolidate will not help; it only looks at songs that are already in the library. Run File > Add Folder to Library on your iTunes folder. That will try to pick up any songs that are in the folder but not in the library. It will however skip any file that is not compatible with iTunes.

Before you try to configure the settings on your Router, first thing which you need to do is, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
Connect the Modem to the Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect your computer to the Linksys router on the LAN Port 1. On your Computer click on Start - Run - CMD and click Ok... Now in the Command Prompt window type "ipconfig" and hit enter and note down the "IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway" , Now again in the Command Prompt window type "ping default gateway IP" and hit enter and check if you are getting any replies, If yes then you can login to the setup page of the configure all the settings on it from scratch.

Event date does not agree with photo dates in the event

Mavericks
Iphoto 9.5.1
I have made a new event and put lots of genealogy pictures for one family member in it. I changed all the photos to Jan 4, 2002. These are docs, pics, obits, etc. Thus I have given this one person this date. Other family names have another date. I modified all the original files within each event.
Beside this couples name on the "Event" label it says Jan 3, 2002 - August 23, 2014. Therefore it shows itself in the Jan 3, 2002 group of people. That is about 20 family groups up the page.
I have done the following:
     --Made sure that there are no pictures with the date Jan 3, 2002 in the event
     --Have taken all the pictures in the event and separated them out into new events--census, certificates, pictures, obits, etc. Thought I would trick the event to restarting!
     --Did a "select-all" of that event and created a new event--same thing.
     --Closed down iPhoto and started over again.
I have no idea why the Jan 3, 2002 is showing up. These are one side of the family. The January 4 is the other side!
On August 23, 2014, I did take a couple of the cemetery pictures in this event. However, they were given the new date of January 4 and Modified the original files using the checkbox. I put the same picture in another family member's event and it is OK. I
Hope I have given enough details.

I think I have solved it! After much frustration and then writing for help, I was not to be stopped. I kept looking up other helps and one person suggested that one of the pictures might be a problem. So I tried that approach. I made an event just out of the "possible" problem pix (the August 2014 date.) It was not causing a problem in another event, however.   From that event with the same pix, I exported the pix to the desktop, and then imported the pix back into iPhoto. Then I put them into the event that was having the problem. So far so good. The date of the event matches all the dates of the photos. I will now delete the "problem children."
Maybe this will help someone else.

Scheduling agreement with relase - doc type LPA with JIT

Hi
can any one give the steps for Scheduling agreement with relase - doc type LPA with JIT process.. and explain how the JIT will work in SA.
Pls advise what are config required and what the user tcode needed to perform the SA with JIT concept.

Dear Friend,
Without release documentation(Document type LP)
The delivery schedule lines have official character-that is to say,they are transmitted to the vendor as they are saved in the system.The system does not document in detail releases aganist the scheduling agreement that have been sent to the vendor.Therefore,in the case of the document type without release documentation,the message control facility should be set up in such a way that a message is immediately sent to vendor if any changes are made to the delivey schedule stored in the system.
With release documnetation(Document type LPA)
If you use scheduling agreement with release documentation,the delivery schedule lines are not transmitted directly to the vendor.Intially ,the lines of the delivery schedule stored in the system for an LPA scheduling agreement for an internal information only.A message informing the vendor of your material requirements cannot be transmitted to the vendor until you explicitly create an SA release,that is forecast (FRC) or Just in Time(JIT) delivey schedule.Through this process,you can change the way schedule lines are represented.With release documentation,you can disply the SA releases(delivery schedules) transmitted to a vendor over a certain period of any time.This enables you to trace precisely when you sent which information to vendor.

Apex report result doesn't agree with the result of sql developer

Hello guys,
at the moment I try to create a standard report which takes his content from several spreadsheets. Because of some problems with the searchbar I'm not able to use an interactive report. The sql query contains a function, which sets some space characters into the content of a column. But there is a big problem. When I call my sql query in apex from the spreadsheets the result doesn't agree with the result which affords the sql developer.
I know that the sql developer affords the right result.
best regards
wderr
Edited by: user9072567 on 07.02.2010 12:57

thats the query:
select "TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY",
"TWORKITEM"."PROJCATKEY",
"TPROJECT"."LABEL",
"TWORKITEM"."PACKAGESYNOPSYS",
replace(replace("TWORKITEM"."PACKAGEDESCRIPTION", chr(10), '<br>'),'<td></td>','<td></td>') packagedesc,
suche_ohne_ti_be("TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY") "CHANGEDESCRIPTION"
from "TWORKITEM" "TWORKITEM", "TPROJECT" "TPROJECT", "TPROJCAT" "TPROJCAT"
where "TWORKITEM"."PROJCATKEY" = "TPROJCAT"."PKEY"
and "TPROJCAT"."PROJKEY" = "TPROJECT"."PKEY"
and (instr(upper("TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY"), upper(nvl(:P10_SEARCHTEXT, "TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY"))) > 0
or instr(upper("TPROJECT"."LABEL"), upper(nvl(:P10_SEARCHTEXT, "TPROJECT"."LABEL"))) > 0

or instr(upper(suche_ohne_ti_be("TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY")), upper(nvl(:P10_SEARCHTEXT, "TWORKITEM"."WORKITEMKEY")))>0
I mean with spreadsheets some tables/charts. And I take those informations from 3 of them.
