Change default stroke/fill in existing doc

We have several existing large documents that are part of a book and we are unable to change default settings for stroke and fill. Whatever we try as soon as we draw an object the line and fill revert back to the same setting of stroke weight: 0, color: 0, swatch: none. We can create and save a new document and then go back in and make default changes and it sticks, so we have some knowledge of how to do this. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you! (CS5.5 7.5.3.)

Don't work with books much, but it occurs to me that Graphic Styles are one of the options that can get synchronized across Books. Try changing those Graphic Styles in your Master document and synchronize settings across the book. (Try this on a copy of your Book, since I don't know what other consequences your Book might suffer.)

Change default application to Pages for .doc files?

When I double-click on a .doc file, TextEdit is the application that opens the file. Is there a way to change it, so that Pages '08 is the default application for .doc files?
Thanks!

Select the file (in Finder)>File>Get Info, then under "Open With", select Pages and click "Change All".

How to change default language in an existing document?

I have created several documents, all with tables in them (lots of text in tables). All of these were created when the default language was English. As I am typing all of these documents in Australian English (same as British English) I am getting lots of red underlines on word that Pages thinks are incorrectly spelt.
How can I do a global change of the text to Australaian English (or any other language for that matter). If I do Select All within the document it does not select the text in the tables so for the moment it looks like I have to select each cell individually to change the language. This will take hours, Surely there is a simpler method to to a global language change.

Update all the styles after you have changed the language.
Insert the cursor in the sample style > Styles Drawer > click on the red triangle next to the style > Redefine Style from selection
Save your document. If you need this for future documents save as a template.
You should have set your system language to Australian English and it would have defaulted to that.

Change the default language of an existing SAP Portal

Hi,
Our SAP Portal works with two languages, Spanish and English. The default language is Spanish, but since the company is becoming more international, we want to set the default language to English. Need to know if you can change the default language of an existing SAP Portal.
Specifically, it is the case of the standard UWL notifications, which are sent by mail in Spanish. For tasks defined in the application, the message is personalized and sent in two languages at once. However, when the task is not defined, notifications arrive in the default language, which is now Spanish. Could anyone tell me if I change it?
Thanks for the help!

Dear Marciano
I hope you are well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums .
In relation to the scenario that you have described regarding the language setting for EP and the UWL.
The language that the portal is displayed in depends on the following heirarchy, with the languages at the top of the list taking precedenceover those at the bottom:
1.Component (iview) language (defined in the portalapp.xml)
2.Portal Mandatory language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
3.User language (defined in the user#s profile).
4.Request language (defined by the browser).
5.Portal Default language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
6.System Default language (default locale defined by the OS).
So for example, if you have your portal user language (as in point 3)set to Czech, but the language of the iView that is the logon page (as in point 1) set to English, that logon page will be displayed in English.
Regarding the navigation path for the prtDefault.properties kindly refer to the SAP Documentation outlined below which provides a detailed summary and walkthrough regarding the language settings.

Default Stroke and Fill

I would like to remove the keyboard shortcut for default stroke and fill
With object selected, if I type D it changes fill to none and stroke to black. I just want to get rid of this shortcut. I can't find it listed in the keyboard shortcuts

In the Keyboard Shortcuts it's under

How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)?

How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)? When I do what Apple said and go to a Pages file in finder and select "get info" then select "Pages 4.3" and "change all" it just defaults to the new one even though I'd selected the old one. Do I need to completely uninstall the new version of Pages or is there another work around because the new version of Pages comes dreadfully short of the features I need that are included in the old one?

HOWEVER, if you modified a document in 5.0, 4.3 can't open it. You'll have to use Time Machine to replace the modified version with an earlier version that was last modified in 4.3.
Actually there is a workaround.
If you open the file in Pages 5, it can then be exported on Pages 0.9 format to another folder. I had to do this as the document was only in iCloud and couldn't be recoverd by Time Machine.
Worked for me!

How do I change the stroke color while retaining the fill color using eye dropper in Illustrator?

I have a question regarding illustrator.
Let's say I have a circle with blue fill and red stroke. And I place an image in the illustrator file. Now I want to change the red stroke of my circle to let's say a purple color by sampling the color from the image.
How can I achieve that with a eye dropper tool? Every time when I try to sample a color from the image, the whole circle will change to purple instead of just the stroke?
I have tried multiple key combination, shift, alt, ctrl but they all don't work.
Cheers, Venn.

What you were saying is essentially what Mike's screenshot is all about?
Deselect Focal Fill on Picks Up and Applies.
I don't see how disabling them will help?
If you have an image, Illustrator reads it as a transparent shape without any appearance attributes.
Now I have a shape with a stroke, I want to change the stroke color by sampling the colors on the image.
You can't do that with the eyedropper because the image doesn't have a stroke.
Eyedropper only picks and applies appearances.
So I guess you can't do this in Illustrator from the beginning.
The eyedropper isn't built for that.

How do I change the default infoset on an existing query?

How do I change the default infoset on an existing query?
Thanks
Hannah

Hi Hannah Holland ,
If you had noticed the sequence in which we create Infoset queries, then your question will be automatically resolved.
For an Infoset Query report,
First we require a user group
Second we create an Infoset , which basically defines or answers your question "What DATA" you would want to display.
Third , you assign the Infoset to the user group.
Fourth, you create a query in that user group using the Infoset.
So , you build Query ON the infoset and not the other way round.
In other words, the query is created based on an infoset. So If you want to create a query on another Infoset, create an other ONE.
Revert if you need additional help.

Change Automatic Stroke Width?

Doing very complicated work that needs me to constantly switch an object from stroke to fill, except the stroke width of 1 is way too huge at the scale I work at so every time I change it I also have to specify the stroke as 0.1 so I can see what I'm doing.
Has anyone heard of a way I can set the stroke width it automatically goes to?

Well yes in that circumstance, yes it does seem to work that way But I do not actually recall myself ever using that function.
I t would not be a bug since the weight appearance is sticky and you have swap it to 0 an it is no longer .1 so it defaults back to 1.
As I wrote if you don't change the line weight then you are fine and so if you have to do tis for some reason you would have to change the stroke weight back to .1 as I indicated.
It makes sense to me the OP indicated they want to keep the stroke weight consistent throughout the whole art creation procedure for that document so I do not see how this could possibly interfere with that scenario?

How to change default thresholds for some metrics of all targets.

Hi!
We have a lot of servers which have to work hard.
So, our OEM very often generates messages like these:
"EM Alert: Critical:dbsora90.tsb.kz - CPU Utilization is 99.95%, crossed warning (80) or critical (95) threshold."
"EM Alert: Critical:dbsora94.tsb.kz - Disk Device c8t60A9800043346C384C344A4A63516D6Ad0(ssd4) is 99.7% busy."
"EM Alert: Critical:dbsora94.tsb.kz - CPU Load (Run Queue Length averaged over 5 minutes) is 20.78, crossed warning (10) or critical (20) threshold."
I need to change default tresholds for mentioned metrics but I can't their defenition in SYSMAN.MGMT_*-tables or suitable settings in OEM GUI.
And I have no time to edit treshholds manually for each target. )

Modification of Metric Thresholds (as this is what you are referring to), should be done using the Metrics and Policy Settings link (to be found in the Target Home page).
Don't mess around with the SYSMAN tables!
Best thing to do here is to start using Monitoring Templates for this.

How to change default approval for ResourceAuthorizerApproval ?

Hi,
I'am new in OIM and I follow documentation where I found some predefined workflows. I'd like to use them.

I'm using OIM 11g and Design Console 11.1.1.3.0.2.0

Ok, I made new tamplate (copy of existing one), there I changed Template Level Approval Process and set allowed resources. It seems to be ok :)
If there are other solutions please share with me

Disabling default control in pre-existing dialogues

I doubt this is possible, but is there a way to disable the default control in an existing dialogue? There are SDK callbacks available to modify, say, the publish collection settings. Normally this dialogue allows you to change the name of the collection and the Ok/Save button is active.
The SDK hints at changing the default when using an edit_field so Return doesn't just blindly accept the changes instead of inserting a line break in the edit_field. But this is /probably/ for dialogues views you create from scratch, not any of the provided ones you can tweak.

See this post for disabling the default control in Export dialogs:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2904193#2904193
According to the employee, you can't disable the default control in other dialogs.
See this post for an undocumented method to disable and make invisible the "OK" button in a dialog:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2928184#2928184
Of course, using an undocumented method entails the risk of not being supported in later versions or of not working as intended.

Change default language for SharePoint Online Sub-Site

Hi Guys,
Am trying to create multiple sub-sites using a custom site template in SharePoint Online. The default language of the Site Template is English. But I want to create sites for difference languages.
There is a option to setup multiple languages on the site and change the browser preferences. But we want that anyone irrespective of the language, should see the site in the language it has been configured for, For instance France site should display data
in French irrespective of any user see it.
To accomplish this, I was trying to find if there is a way to change the default language of the site after we create it.
Can some one give me an idea if we can achieve this behavior or if there an alternate to do it ?
Thanks,
Nutan

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change the default site language.
There is no supported way to change the default language of a site collection, once it has been created.
There is a way to change it by modifying the content database using SQL Management Studio(though it is not supported), you can refer to the article below to change the default language in an existed site.

Change default language at site creation?

Hi,
I have a SharePoint farm consisting of three site collections. All of these have been created with English language. A Norwegian language pack has been installed.
Is there any way to change the default language when a new site is created? More specific: when a user decides to create a new site (not site collection), I want the language dropdown in the form to be Norwegian, not English. Is this possible?
Thanks!
