Can AppleScript dialog configured to use high resolution on macbook retina?

I've just got the macbook retina and noticed that script dialogs displays text in low resolution. Is there an configuration parameter that needs to be set to high resolution texts?

There aren't any settings you can make or change for the dialogs from Standard Additions. I don't know if there is an update planned - some of those look to be pretty old.

How can you save keynote slides as high resolution (300 dpi) images?

Apparently there is a way to save powerpoint slides as 300 dpi images, with some finagling, but not the mac version. Does anyone know how to do this in keynote? Or is there a relativley easy way to do it with free/cheap software? I can increase the dpi in photoshop, but it doesn't produce crisp images for obvious reasons.

how can you save keynote slides as high resolution (300 dpi)
to save individual images from each slide in Keynote;     file > export > images > TIFF (for optimum quality)
You are using the wrong terminology to describe creating an image file
- dpi ( meaning dots per inch ) is the measurement used in printing to create the number of print dots per inch that will be deposited on to physical media like paper or film   This is done in the printer settings box of the print driver and is dependant on how the individual printer can print..
ppi ( meaning pixels per inch ) is the measurement you need to use when creating the number of pixels in a digital image file. You establish image resolution in Keynote using the inspector;
Keynote > inspector > document > slide size
I can increase the dpi in photoshop, but it doesn't produce crisp images for obvious reasons.
You can resample images in editing applications such as Photoshop or Painter but what you are doing is adding non image information to the image to increase pixel count, this is called noise. As you state this is not the procedure to use in your situation.

Resolution problems with Adobe Reader XI using high resolution screens?

Hey,
I am using the new Samsung Ativ Book 9 plus with a high resolution screen of 3200x1800 pixels. Unfortunately Adobe Reader XI shows menu bars in minimal sizes and I can't find any way to change this.
Does anybody know if there is a solution for this problem? I don't wanna change the screen resolution just for using that software.

Hello nordlicht.22
1024x768 screen resolution is supported resolution for Adobe Reader XI.

Can I increase dpi of a high resolution image in Photoshop elements?

Hi,
I have been asked to provide a photo of one of our products for press but they have requested an image which is 300dpi. The image I have is a reasonably high resolution of 1450 x1672 pixels but the dpi is under 100. Can I increase it on Photoshop elements or would I need something more advanced. If I can please tell me how. Thank you

AIR for iOS: Severe performance drop using "high resolution" published app on retina iPhone

I have created a very simple test app the simply draws a line from the previous to the current mouse/touch position after MOUSE_MOVE is detected. I published the app, stage size 320x480, in both "standard" and "high" resolution using AIR for iOS and added each to two different iPhones, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4S. I published again, stage size 640x960 in standard and high resolution and placed on both phones.
320x640 Flash stage size
- standard resolution on iPhone 3GS: works as expected, no hitches.
- high resolution on iPhone 3GS: works as expected
- standard resolution on iPhone 4S: works as expected
- high resolution on iPhone 4S: hangs occasionally and predictably for a half second or so once 20-30 points have been added to the drawing. Of the 4 tests at 320x640 this is the only one that displays at high res.
640x960 Flash stage size
Everything was the same as above. The only test here that diplayed at high res was the high res publish on the iphone 4s as expected. Which showed the same poor performace as above.
Perhaps this has something to do with the upscaled application trying to keep track of mouse position but I'm stumped. Any ideas?

I create an app for kids that draws using MOUSE_MOVE, KidFunKit. It's a retina display high-res app, using AIR 2.6 I got performing issues, after I couple of lines were drawn. Using AIR 3.0, it works nice. Obviously if your frame rate is 60 ... you'll expect lack of performance. You may try Starling Framework based on STAGE3D if you want the most of AS3.

Does the higher resolution of the retina display mean smaller text

Hi,
I have trouble seeing smaller text, and I am wondering if the higher resolution on the 13 inch macbook pro with retinal display will make Safari's menu and fonts or any other applications fonts smaller and therfore harder to read.
I figured a higher resolution means more can fit on a page and therefore everything is smaller. Not sure though?

In the Displays Preferences, you can choose the actual resolution you want displayed on the monitor. You're correct that a higher resolution will provide more screen real-estate at the expense of everything, including text, being smaller. You can also choose to make everything larger but less will fit on the screen. You just can't have it both ways unless you get a 27" LED display and plug it into the MacBook Pro. Just don't try to carry it around.

How to use high resolution image as glyphs in icon editor?

i want to use a hiigh resolution image in icon editor . how do i use it?

Icons can be up to 32x32 px in size, so first you need to reduce the resolution of the image. Save as .bmp, .jpg or .png.
From the icon editor, select Edit -> Import Glyph from File... and choose your image. Done.

Can't make ATI radeon use 1680x1050 resolution

I can't get my ati card to display 1680x1050 resolution in xorg. I'm running xorg 7.1 and the newest ati drivers. but I only get 1600x854 (or something) when trying to set it to 1680x1050. My video card is ATI Radeon Mobility 9700. Do I need to update the firmware of the card, or is there a setup issue?
Thanks in advance.

Can FieldPoint be configured for use with 4 wire temperature sensors?

I would like to build a fieldpoint-based measurement system that is configured to accept 4 wire type low temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and several 4 wire (100ma) magnetic hall sensors. Each 4 wire temperature and magnetic hall sensor will require a stable current source (20ma -100ma range). We need to be able to synchronously read up to 8 sensors. Under certain circumstances we would like update rates up to 50 Hz (0.02 seconds) on all 8 channels. We currently have FieldPoint products, such as FP-1001 modules (RS-485 Network Interface), FP AI-110 modules (8 channel, 16 bit analog input), FP-RTD-122 modules (8 channel RTD input), FP-RLY-420 modules (SPST Relay), FP-TB-1 (36 screw terminal, Universal Terminal Base), NI-SCC-68 (68 pin Terminal Block with 4SCC expansion slots), PCI-8431 (RS-485 Serial 2 Channel Card), and other FP modules on hand that we would like to use in this experiment design if possible. I would like more information on the NI FP-RTD-124, (4 wire, 8 ch., 16 bit RTD input module) regarding use with platinum RTDs and low level/low temperature signals, and maximum refresh rates. Thanks for your help,
LGF

Hi LGF. FP-RTD-124 info is here: (c)FP-RTD-124 manual.
The range of the -124 on the low end is -200C; we use it to -196C with 100 ohm Platinum sensors with good results.
The update rate, ~ 1S, however, is not going to meet your requirements. Can your temperatures really change that rapidly?
The excitation is fixed at 2mA x 135 mS with a period of 1S. Fine for an RTD, don't know about your Hall sensors.
Your AI-110 module can be configured to read the Hall sensors with external excitation but the maximum update rate is 0.173S.
Hope that helps.

Can Applescript or Automator be used to keep Character Viewer open?

Since the upgrade to Mavericks the behaviour of the Character Viewer has changed, where it no longer 'sticks' (stays both active and on top) as a visible window when you switch applications: now it needs to be called up from within each application, and will be visible when working with that app.
Is it possible to use Applescript or Automator (which I don't yet know how to use), to make the Character Viewer always stay open and visible while switching between and using any application, in effect restoring the way it worked before Mavericks?
Thanks.
(This question relates to one I asked here. It will be some time before I can access the computer in question and try the solution suggested there specifically for Word – my interest here is in finding out if it is possible to get the old Character Viewer behaviour back using Automator or Applescript.)

Thanks for that suggestion too. Please let me know if you do try and succeed; I'm not sure I have the knowledge.
In fact, in looking on my system I can find no .plist file with CharViewer in it, and it's not obvious any of the .plist files are related. I did find in the system library:
Macintosh HD/System/Library/PreferencePanes/Keyboard.prefPane
I don't seem to have a Library folder in my Home folder anymore (since Mavericks?). It looks like it now resides at Macintosh HD/Library.
In the MacHD/System/Library there is an interesting folder: Input Methods. This is empty in MacHD/Library/Input Methods, but full of the following applications in System/Library/Input Methods (see screenshot). The first two look relevant. But I really don't know what I'm doing.

Can't install configuration profile using iPhone Config Utility 3.5 and iPad iOS 5.1

Sorry for the long title, but...
I had a certificate expire in my configuration profile (that allows access to the Enterprise WiFi network). In the past, that means I go fetch a new certificate, install it into the configuration profile, attach the device to the computer via USB, and download that to the device. It's all good.
With iCU 3.5 and iOS 5.1, that all works fine until the last step. I hit the install button - nothing happens. Zilch. Nada, Zero. I happen to be a developer as well, so I have Xcode open and am watching the device console. Absolutely nothing happens on the device console.
What am I doing wrong? I can't believe that this is broken, and if it is broken I'm the first person to trip on it, so what's up?
(I did workaround this problem by exporting and sharing the configuration via email to the device and installing it from the attachment. That part still seems to work, and the profile itself also seems to work. The problem seems to be with iCU and downloading profiles.)
Thanks for your help.

I ran into same problem. I think ithis might be your problem . This fixed mine I had settings already set and tried to install on new ipad and wouldn't work wouldn't do anything just set there I hit install and never did nothing. What I did was del the settings for configuration and re set them all over again and boom it's worked it works fine for me now. Hope this helps

Can StreamInsight be configured to use SQL Server for resiliency?

Is it possible to use StreamInsight with SQL Server instead of CE as the metadata store? This is so that it can be supported the same way as all our other application databases (e.g. for backup, permissions, audit, disaster recovery, etc).

No, at this time it cannot be. SQL CE - and, in particular, CE 3.5 SP3(? - the one that ships with StreamInsight) - is your only option.

I can't seem to save a high resolution jpg. from a raw file?

I am trying to save a large resolution jpg. from a raw file. When I save as at the highest level its only saving the image at around 2mb ?

I am trying to upload a file to print on canvas in raw my photo is 30mb but when i try and save it thru photoshop as a jpg. Its so compressed the site wont even except it because the resolution is to low?
Thanks for any ideas,

Using lower resolutions on MacBook Pro Retina a good Idea?

Ever since I got my MBP retina I have been having eye strain issues to the point of basically almost returning the unit. I recently discovered that by using the lower resolutions (1280x800) (1024x640) I am having a much easier time and my eyes relax quite a bit more. My questions is does this have any negative effect on performance? I understand I sacrifice space but I just struggle with the native (1440x900). Or perhaps a none retina display would be the option. I just sold my mid 2009 macbook pro and now regret it.

No the performance would, if anything, improve if you use a lower resolution. Although I can't seem to understand how the retina MBP would give you more eyestrain at 1440x900 than your old 2009 MBP at the same resolution? If the problem is the pixel density then it wouldn't matter if you run the screen at native 1440x900 or 1280x800. You would still have the same amount of pixels running (2880x1800).
Well my answer to your question is; no the performance will not be affected.

Is it possible to switch off the retina resolution in Macbook Retina, and view everything like older macbooks?

I havent yet gotten my self a Macbook Pro Retina yet, but considering.
When designing websites, it's of course important to be able to easily test how the websites look in different browsers, screensizes and devices.
So my question is, if I want to see i.e. how images on a website I'm developing would look and scale on older macs and other non-retina devices, is it possible to make the screen "go ugly" again and make 4pixels next to eachother form one pixel.
Of course, there might be another much better way to accomplish what I'm after, please feel free to present other ideas!
Also, if it's not yet possible, is the os x open in a way, that I could develop an app that would do it?
Thank you very much for your replies!
