Calculation Script to change a number based on quantity in another

Hello - and thanks for the help - I have no real idea of what I am doing when it comes to writing script. I would like the cost of something to change depending on the quantity ordered... ie. the more you buy the better price you get.
(ie. 5 or less = $18.00, 6-10 = $17.00, 11+ = $16.00)
How do I write a calc script to accomplish this? Also, if the "Quantity" affecting the outcome is a result of a calculation itself will the code still work?
I have uploaded a sample to the following:
http://www.shupaca.com/Calc.html
Thanks!

Check the spelling of you field names with in your custom scripts.
Some overall observations:
Use the provided formats for fields unless you want to write your own format code, validation code, or keystrokes code.
Use the default value option to set default values of fields, so if the form is reset, the default value is restored. You can also access this value in code.
Use the 'read only' parameter to lock field you do not want users of the form to update.
Check the JavaScript console for errors. You misspelled the field name.
Do not use a calculation event when another type of event can perform the same script,. Calculation order can become a problem. All field calculations are rerun when ever any field that is used in a calculation is updated, so by the end of your form you may have a significant amount recalculation of unnecessary calculations being performed.
Setting the 'Scarf Cost' field to read only, default value of 18, and a 'Number' format with 2 decimal places and the "$" currency symbol and removing all scripts for this field, one could use the following "On Blur' action for the 'Scarf Quantity' field:
var oPrice = this.getField('Scarf Cost');
oPrice.value = oPrice.defaultValue;
if (event.value > 5) {
oPrice.value = 16;

Script for changing objects presence based on amount range

Hello,
Is there a way to change an objects presence (either a field or a subhead) based on the entered amount range in a numeric field?
For example:
-The numeric field amount entered is a range between 1 and 49,999, then "Signature Subhead 1" appears.
-The numeric field amount entered is a range between 50,000 and 250,000, then "Signature Subhead 2" appears.
Etc.
Any advice for this script would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Bruce,
Your solution worked perfectly. If I was to expand the ranges (let's say to three ranges), would I just have to add another "case this" logic section such as this?
switch (true)
case this.rawValue >= 1 && this.rawValue <= 49999:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "visible";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
break;
case this.rawValue >= 50000 && this.rawValue <= 249999:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "visible";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
break;
case this.rawValue >= 250000 && this.rawValue <= 500000:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "visible";
break;
default:
SignatureSubhead1.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead2.presence = "hidden";
SignatureSubhead3.presence = "hidden";
Appreciated,
Eric

Is there a script to change paragraph style based on even/odd page

Is there a script or way to have paragraph style change between 2 styles based on the text being on an even or odd page?

@JustMikey – as I understand your task, the problem has nothing to do with "special" paragraph styles, but (nearly) all with anchored objects (the images and parts of the gray bar) and appropriate margin settings.
Just see the following IDML file I exported from InDesign CS5.5:
Dropbox - ImagesAwayFromSpine-CS5.5.zip
ImagesAwayFromSpine-CS5.5.zip
ImagesAwayFromSpine-CS5.5.idml
080731_Manchester-xxl_Grau.tif
Of course you could add paragraph styles to format the data automatically or optimize in other ways.
That's up to you. But you can see the principle:
Inspect the Anchored Object Options for the image and the gray bar. Also the frame fitting options for the image.
Note: See also the margin settings, that are not exactly mirrored on even and odd pages (for good reason).

Script to change fill color based on excel data?

Hi. I'm curious if there is a way to change the fill color of, say a rectangle, in Illustrator based on data in an excel spreadsheet (csv or whatever). For example: say the data in the excel cell is 1 and that corresponds to the rectangle in Illustrator having a yellow fill... Now say I update the data in the cell to 2 and save. I run the script and it makes the box red. Is that even remotely possible? Thanks.

Hi, yes it's possible, I used VBA on Windows
Assuming you have an Illustrator file with 1 square, and 2 swatches named "yellow" and "red"
this is how I set up the excel file
type the formula in cell F2 as shown, make your color updates on cell E2
VBA code:
Sub recolorSquare()
    Dim iapp As New Illustrator.Application
    Dim idoc As Illustrator.Document
    Dim rect As Illustrator.PathItem
    Dim whatColor As String
    whatColor = range("F2")
    Set idoc = iapp.ActiveDocument
    Set rect = idoc.PathItems(1)
    rect.FillColor = idoc.Swatches(whatColor).Color
    Set rect = Nothing
    Set idoc = Nothing
    Set iapp = Nothing
End Sub

Tcl script to change access vlan based on MAC address

Hello all. I'm looking for some input on how best to handle this situation. I have a large nework with a lot of remote offices where we have limited control over users moving around patch cables. We're using vlan-based QoS in these office to mark voice, video, data. etc. The problem I'm having is that our users are moving video conferencing equipment to different interfaces on our swithes, which puts the VTC unit in a different vlan, fouling our QoS policy. They then call and complain about poor video quality.
I'm trying to come up with a way to automate putting the interface in the video vlan if a VTC unit is connected. All of our video conferencing units are from the same vendor, so they have same OUI in the MAC address. The script I've been working on looks for a line protocol up event, then checks to see what access vlan is configured on the interface. If the interface is already in the video vlan, the script exits. if the interface is not in the video vlan, the script looks at the MAC address table for the interface and if the OUI matches a VTC unit, the script changes interface configuration. My question is, is there a better event to trigger script execution? Maybe a MAC notification trap, or something else? Line protocol transitions when the access vlan is changed, so the current script runs twice: once when the interface first comes up with a new connection, and again when the vlan is changed.
Script is attached. Any help or advice is appreciated!

Does your video equipment use CDP? If so, then you can use the neighbor-discovery event detector to only react when you see a media endpoint being connected to a port. Yes, MAC address notifications (the mat ED) can also work if you know the MACs of your media endpoints.

Script to Change WINS IP based on current address.

Hello everyone! I've been looking online for help on changing the primary and secondary WINS addresses on hundreds of servers. I've come across scripts that will set the WINS addresses for all enabled NICS on servers listed in a .txt file. But I don't want
it to set WINS address on adapters on our backup network. Long story short, here's what i need:
PowerShell script that will:
1. Change the Primary and Secondary WINS addresses on servers from a .txt (or .xlsx) file.
2. Makes the change by querying the enabled adapters on the server that already have a specific IP address defined for WINS.
Here is an example of what I need (I don't know who the original author of this is to give proper credit.) It does what I want for DNS, but need it modified for WINS only. I really appreciate anyone's suggestions!
#------------begin script-----------------------------
$ScriptPath = Split-Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path
$oldDNS = "Enter IP Address Here" # Old DNS you want replaced
$newDNS = "Enter IP Address Here" # New DNS server you want
$List = $ScriptPath + "\list_server.txt"
$log = New-Item -ItemType file -Path $ScriptPath -name change_DNS.csv -Force
Add-Content -Path $log -Value "Servers;Status"
[array]$List = get-content $List
for($i=0; $i -lt $List.Length; $i++)
$Server =$List[$i]
Write-Progress -Activity "Modifying DNS records" -Status "Server: $Server"
$ping = new-object System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping
$Reply = $ping.send($Server)
if ($Reply.status –eq “Success”)
$colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration" -namespace "root\cimv2" -computername $Server | Where-Object {$_.IPEnabled -eq "True"}
foreach ($objItem in $colItems)
$strDNSServerSearchOrder = $objItem.DNSServerSearchOrder
$dnsexists = $strDNSServerSearchOrder -Contains $oldDNS
if ($dnsexists -eq "True")
$newArrDNS = $strDNSServerSearchOrder -replace ($oldDNS,$newDNS)
$objItem.setDNSServerSearchOrder($newArrDNS) | out-null
Add-Content -Path $log -Value "$($Server);A replacement has been made"
else {Add-Content -Path $log -Value "$($Server);No Replacement criteria found"}
else {Add-Content -Path $log -Value "$($Server);Offline or no ping"}
$Reply = ""
#------------End script--------------------------

Yes Bill I did, but didn't find exactly what I was looking for. Oddly enough though, I started searching by "PowerShell Get WINS servers" and I came across something that helped. I ended up using this:
# here is where I read from the list of servers, this makes the entire list a variable
$servers = Get-Content C:\Scripts\PS-Scripts\WINS\Test.txt
Get-wmiObject Win32_networkadapterconfiguration -computername $servers -Filter 'IPEnabled=TRUE and DHCPEnabled=FALSE' | # This filter will make sure the NIC is enabled and DHCP is disabled
ForEach-Object{ # here is where the list goes through individual objects (or servers)
IF($_.WINSPrimaryServer -ne $null)
{ # My list shouldn't include any servers with the Primary WINS server set but as a fail-safe this IF statement will catch it if it set
$_.SetWINSServer("123.123.123.123","123.123.123.123") # If a server has meets all the requirements Here is where I change set the New WINS server address

Change text colour based on text in another text box

I am playing around with data merge in CS6 to layour customised artwork and I'm stuck.
I have the data merge working no probs, bringing in the correct artwork and the names to go on the artwork. What I cannot seem to acheive is how to get the names to change colour based on the club field i have in my data set.
I have the following fields:
@design - brings in the artwork
name - bringing in the customers name to be printed on the artwork
club - brings in the club name
I presume I have to apply a paragraph style to the <<name>> field to get it to change colour, I cant work out how to use a GREP style to get it to change based on the <<club>> field though.
Any help would be much appricated or alternative ways to do this.
I have around 500 records to propcess on a weekly basis so being able to automate it would be a big help.

I think it can be done with GREP styles, though I'm very weak in GREP skills.
This this example has the club name before the player's name:
I burned out trying to recreate the successful example with the player name preceding the team name. I think it used a different lookaround method. Any suggestions are welcome.
One problem I'm stuck on is how to make the expression that captures the player's name work with one, two, three, or more names, like first, middle, last, esq., etc. Currently there needs to be the same number of word placeholders in the GREP expression as there are words in the player's name.
In this example, the bteam search fails. I moved it to another position in the GREP style dialog box, but no success. I created dteam to see if perhaps there was a limit to the number of searches. It succeeded when I deleted, then recreated, the bteam search.

Custom Calculation Script Help Needed

I need to make a script that Sums a column of fields based on whether or not information found in another column of fields is the same or specific text. Please see below screenshot of what I would like it to do.
I would like a Sum of all Amounts that have the Code A...

You can use this script as the custom calculation script of "SumOfA":
var total = 0;
for (var i=0; i<=2; i++) {
if (this.getField("p1TC."+i).value=="Code A")
total+=Number(this.getField("p1RecIn."+i).value);
event.value = total;
You can easily adjust it for the other field as well.

Custom Calculation Script almost works...

I'm trying to creaet a form that uses a dropdown box to select the proper text for a text field. I have created the form and the Custom Calculation for my Text box works great (Thanks to these forums!).
The problem I am experincing now is that I want to be able to use an Add Page button to spawn another blank copy of the form within the file. The page spawns correctlly (Once again thanks to these forums!), but My text fields in all of the pages only have the calculated value based upon the last page added.
Here is my script to spawn the page based upon a template called "Additional Information":
var a = this.getTemplate("Additional Information");
a.spawn();
resetFieldsOnPage(pageNum++);
resetFieldsOnPage() is a document level javascript that is used to clear the form when it spawns and also to clear and indvidual page with the use of a Clear Button:
function resetFieldsOnPage(p)
var fields = [];
    for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
        var f = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i));
        if (f==null) continue;
        if (f.page==p)
            fields.push(f.name);
    this.resetForm(fields);
My Text field with the custom calaculation script looks like this:
//var v = this.getField("Dropdown2").value;
var v;
var p = "P";
var pagecount = this.pageNum;
var AI= ".Additional Information.";
var drop = "Dropdown21";
var Value1013A = "VALUEA";
var Value1013B = "VALUEB";
var Value1013C = "VALUEC";
var Value1013D = "VALUED";
var Value1013E = "VALUEE";
var Value1013F = "VALUEF";
var Value1013G = "VALUEG";
var Value1013H = "VALUEH.";
var Value1015A = "VALUE105A";
if (pagecount == "0") v = this.getField(drop).value;
    else v = this.getField(p+pagecount+AI+drop).value;
if (v=="101-3 subd.A") this.event.value = Value1013A;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.B") this.event.value = Value1013B;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.C") this.event.value = Value1013C;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.D") this.event.value = Value1013D;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.E") this.event.value = Value1013E;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.F") this.event.value = Value1013F;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.G") this.event.value = Value1013G;
     else if (v=="101-3 subd.H") this.event.value = Value1013H;
     else if (v=="101-5 subd.A") this.event.value = Value1015A;
     else this.event.value = " ";
I can add pages succesfully with the ADD PAGE button and the additional forms are blank. As soon as I select a Value in dropdown21 on the new page, All the text boxes that have the above custom calcualtion script change to the value on the last page. The last page is correct, but all the pages before it have changed.
I have made sure that the form is blank before creating the template. I have even exported a copy of the orginal page with no data in it and then imported it as a new page. After the import I have changed all of the form field to completelly different names and then modified the script of the imported page before creating the template. I just can't see the problem. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Simple field notation: Field 1 / Field 2
Custom script:

Is it possible to script language change in OSX Lion ?

I recently purchased a Disney game (Cars 2) from the App Store, which advertises being available in 5 languages. It seems now that the game has no in-app options to change language, but selects the language based on OSX settings (but otherwise the app doesn't use ANY of the GUI elements from the OS).
My Mac's are all set up in English, in the account on which my kid plays the game doesn't have administrator rights (for good reasons). He doesn't master the English language enough and would like to play the game in dutch. On the other hand, when using Safari and other apps, he is used to the English user interface.
Is it possible to create a script that changes the Finder language to Dutch, then forces Finder Quit, then launches the App, and after quitting the App reverses the Finder Change ? (or if not in one step, maybe in a number of subscripts), so that I can let my kid enjoy his game in dutch without me having to be present each time to change the system settings ?
Thanks in advance.
Philip

Tom, thanks, this works perfectly. In older days, I have been a programmer on Mac (long before even the PowerMac days), and back then I would have used ResEdit to do something similar as what you suggested. Since those days are long gone, I was not sure if it was possible to change the resources of an app without extensive coding software, but the trick you just showed me seems to be the current-day equivalent of ResEdit ...
Anyways, you saved our day ... thanks alot

Script to change logon wallpaper on windows XP and 7 ...

Hi there,
We have both windows XP and windows 7 in our organization and just wondering how to change the logon wallpaper via script.
We're in a subdomain of a larger network and they haven't made a move to Server 2008 ... so group policy is not possible.
what we need is a script to auto-detect whether it's a windows XP or 7, then apply the necessary registry settings.
I found the way to run a script / modify registry settings to change the logon wallpaper by modifying the registry settings manually and then export it to a network location (edit it as necessary), and then run the script --> regedit.exe /s filename.reg
- Windows XP
http://www.tweaklibrary.com/System/Startup-and-Shutdown/60/Set-the-log-on-tile-screen-wallpaper/10626/
- Windows 7
http://www.techspot.com/guides/224-change-logon-screen-windows7/
We can't apply both settings at the same time since since the regKey is different between xp and 7.
help?

How do I change a number that was international back to UK number so it permanently recognises it as UK not international? I've tried delete, reset factory settings, change the format of the number etc and nothing seems to work. Help!

I recently moved back to the UK and bought my iphone 4 with me. It is unlocked and works on the new contract that I have set up here in the UK. The problem I'm having is that some of the UK numbers that I had already had on the iphone in Korea as international UK numbers will now not work as they are still coming up as international numbers. This means it is costing me a lot to message or call these numbers. I have tried changing the number format various ways, deleting the numbers (although it still seems to remember them), resetting the phone, restoring the phone.
How can I succesfully change these numbers?
Any UK numbers I have added since changing the contract are working fine.
Thanks!

Do you happen to have Dial Assist on? This is in Settings>Phone. This is what helps the phone identify international numbers when dialing, based on location. See if turning that off/on makes a difference. Unless you are making a number of international calls, I believe this can be left off. See the User Guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf Page 49 has info regarding Dial Assist.

Which is faster - Member formula or Calculation scripts?

Hi,
I have a very basic question, though I am not sure if there is a definite right or wrong answer.
To keep the calculation scripts to a minimum, I have put all the calculations in member formula.
Which is faster - Member formula or calculation scripts? Because, if i am not mistaken, FIX cannot be used in member formulas, so I need to resort to the use of IF, which is not index driven!
Though in the calculation script,while aggregating members which have member formula, I have tried to FIX as many members as I can.
What is the best way to optimize member formulas?
I am using Hyperion Planning and Essbase 11.1.2.1.
Thanks.

The idea that you can't reference a member formula in a FIX is false. Here's an example:
- Assume you have an account that has a data storage of Stored or Never Share.
- This account is called Account_A and it has a member formula of Account_B * Account_C;.
- You would calculate this account within a FIX (inside of a business rule) something like this:
FIX(whatever . . . )
"Account_A";
ENDFIX
If you simply place the member named followed by a semi-colon within a business rule, the business rule will execute the code in the in that member's member formula.
Why would you want to do this instead of just putting ALL of the logic inside the business rule? Perhaps that logic gets referenced in a LOT of different business rules, and you want to centralize the code in the outline? This way, if the logic changes, you only need to update it in one location. The downside to this is that it can make debugging a bit harder. When something doesn't work, you can find yourself searching for the code a bit.
Most of my applications end up with a mix of member formulas and business rules. I find that performance isn't the main driving force behind where I put my code. (The performance difference is usually not that significant when you're talking about stored members.) What typically drives my decision is the organization of code and future maintenance. It's more art than science.
Hope this helps,
- Jake

Character Limit to Custom Calculation Script?

Hi. I have a document that has a text form field. I want to run a custom calculation script that basically says if field "Group Number" = xxxxxxx, then field "Group Name" should = ABC Company.
I have a list of almost 575 group numbers and names that I need to put in the script. And I've got the script working just fine but I am guessing there is a character limit to the script field???? It won't let me put my full list in there.
Any suggestions on how to get around this??
Thanks,
Brandy

I think I might have one error but I thought I had corrected it. Let me run this by you. My "if" lines are like this:
if(a == '88096') event.value = 'Stacy's Carpet Steam Cleaning Company';
But the code doesn't seem to like the ' in the Group's name. Is there a way to correct that without getting rid of the ' .... ?????
