Change defaults for Desktop and Documents dirs

I just installed Solaris10 and JDS3 on my standalone SPARC machine. I see that two new directories are created, ${HOME}/Desktop/ and ${HOME}/Documents/. I want to change these defaults to hidden directories, ${HOME}/.Desktop/ and ${HOME}/.Documents/, but I cannot find the configuration file under ${HOME} or any other root-accessible directory to change these defaults?
I also cannot seem to get rid of some small "language" windows that come up, e.g., with lines like [English/European]. Are these part of xterm windows?
Thanks.

AFAIK there's currently no way to configure these... and if you just try to delete or rename them, they'll be recreated the next time you log in. I'm afraid you'll probably just have to live with them until we (and/or the GNOME community) address this in a future release.

These are part of the input method framework, to show you which input method is active for the current window. IIRC, they will disappear if you add the input method switcher applet to your panel, or you log in using the C locale. On Linux, as a last resort you can also just uninstall the GNOME input method packages, not sure off-hand which package(s) these correspond to on Solaris though.

BOXI R3 Webi Doc -"Refresh On Open" checked as default for Save and Save As

we have row level security at database level and we require that all webi reports are set to "Refresh on Open" in order to apply the security settings each time the report is viewed.
Is it possible to make BOXI R3 Webi Document -"Refresh On Open" checked as default for "Save" and "Save As"
through SDk?

Are you referring to editing/creating a Webi doc through infoview? Infoview is an out of the box web application and modification of it is not supported. There is no setting to make all webi docs refresh on open within the enterprise product.
The only thing you could do with the sdk is to open any existing doc and change the setting. This isn't a great solution as it won't affect any new reports created, nor will it prevent users from modifying the document and changing this setting and saving.

APDivs are a thing of the past and is bad practice. You need a working knowledge of CSS to get a modern looking layout and to do justice to your design which looks great btw.
One out-of-the-box solution is to use Bootstrap - http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/index.html and use the pre-defined classes/ grids to layout your content.

File screening users desktop and documents area

can I use file screening to prevent users saving office documents and email documents on the desktop and documents folder.
these will be for their profiles that are in use on the RDS server, no folder redirection in place just standard profiles.
I have tried to create a screen path of c:\users\%username%\desktop but this doesn't work.
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks
simon

Hi Simon,
Before going further, sorry for the delayed response.
>>would mandatory profiles be the way to go at all seeing as I am using a TS ?
We can use mandatory profiles for users when they access to terminal servers.
To do this, if our domain controller is above Windows Server 2008, we can enable the following policy setting:
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Profiles\Use mandatory profiles on the RD Session Host server
or if our domain controller is Windows Server 2008 or below, the setting should be called:
Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services\Terminal Server\Profiles
When we enable above policy setting, Remote Desktop Services uses the path specified in the
Set path for TS Roaming User Profile policy setting as the root folder for the mandatory user profile. All users connecting remotely to the terminal server use the same user profile.
Regarding this policy setting, the following article can be referred to for more information.

Illustrator CS5 Not the Default for EPS and other Vector Formats

Hey everyone, the issue I'm haveing is not just with Illustrator, but sense I couldnt find a general CS5 forum, and Illustrator was the last CS5 application i noticed this for I'm hoping to find some answers here.
So on to the issue....
I have noticed that on other computers (Macs for sure) that Illustrator, Photoshop, Dreamweaver etc... are set as the default handlers of certain file types that are associated with each application, and as such, give each filetype there own little icons reflecting such.
However on my system (Windows 7 Ultimate x64) this does not seem to be the case. I can go in and set them as default manually, which I have done for the filetypes I use most frequently, but I do not get to enjoy the nice icons that made for each filetype, i just get a bland, default icon that is the same for every filetype.
Is there a way to fix this issue?
Thanks for you help.

Yes, I think i mentioned it before that I knew I could set the default app through Explorer (right clicking, going to "open with" etc..) but this doesn't let you use any of the custom icons that come with the adobe applications, it sets it as the default icon associated witht he particular application. I'll take a look in the properties when I get home but, but I think you may be referring to the "open with" dialogue.
Most applications like Firefox, iTunes etc.. have a button in there preferences menu to "set as default" for all file types they can open, however I don't see such an option in any Adobe applications except for bridge, and that doesn't seem to do anything.

I believe in the properties pane for one of those files it will display the default app for opening such files and you can change it there as well and make it apply to all similar files.

VS 2013 - SQL Server Projects - Can I Change defaults for SQL Servers to use and the paths to DB-files?

Hi all,
when a create a SQL Server Project using "File > New ...", I find the following settings defaulted:
SQL Server is (local)\Version12.0 and
DefaultDataPath, DefaultFileprefix and the DefaultFilename(s) for MDFs and LDFs point to the Project directory.
Initial settings of file size and increments are also not settable but defaulted.
Because my projects have to verify performance by testing with large volume of data, we have to use a different SQL Server with files stored on that Server. The Project settings have a button to changes DB properties, but these are not part of that
dialog.
So I spent some fruitless hours in vain to find a way to change the project's connection to my development SQL Servers.
How to cope with that?
Thanks in advance.
Regards Uwe

Hi Caillen,
thanks for Your response. I have to apologize for being a little late with my answer. I'll try to clarify my case more precisely:
This is surely a topic related to VS2013 handling new "SQL Server Database Projects". When one clicks "OK" the following steps are executed by VS2013 (surely controlled by standard templates or the like):
VS2013 creates the new project in a selectable directory and uses the projectname as a subdirectory whre the directory elements (*.sqlproj, bin\, obj\) where later all the *.sql are placed, too. This is normal and expected.
VS2013 creates a new database with its DB-files
and attaches it to "(localdb)\ProjectsV12". The name of the database is the name of the project. The path to the DB-files (*.mdf and ldf) and their sizes are also defaulted to small values. The DB-server and the
path to the DB-files is taken from the registry (!) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\SSDT\LocalDbDatabaseFilePaths. I don't know when and by what tools these values are set.
The path to DB-Files is typically also the path to the projects. The (local)-server places all system database files in the User\<user-ID>\Appdata\.. tree. Which is OK for small databases. The templates extracts some data from the DB-file path and
places it in the deployment SQLs to populate the SQLCMD variables DefaultDataPath, DefaultFileprefix and the DefaultFilename(s) which are generated when pressing "Executed" or "Debug" the project.
My problem is that we have to test database performance with larger volumes of data (e.g. two million rows and more). These cannot be stored in the User-path but must be handled by some kind of professional DB-Manager on various storage devices. When everything
is tested, the publishing function of VS2013 will extract the structure and you are done incl. all the performance taming things.
The dialog from the project properties can change to a different Server, but that server does not know your project database. The server and the DB-Files should be specified by the developer before VS2013 creates the database.
So the right forum would be a forum, where people developing SQL Server solutions with VS2013 are reading the questions.
Thanks again for your patience.
Regards Uwe

Desktop and documents question for Lion

is there a way to set certain word documents to open on a designated desktop without them appearing on other designated desktops.
for instance:
I have 2 desktops: One for play and one for work
I would like to assign certain word documents to my work desktop but
not have them appear on my play desktop.
Thanks So Much

i did assign it to open on my work desktop
but when i toggle back to my play desktop
word is open on my play desktop also because there is a little light on underneath the word icon on both desktops
I only want the app to be active on my work desktop
so my question was is there a configuration to achieve this...?

? How do you change default for .pdf files from Reader 6 to reader 9

I cannot change the default for .pdf files from reader 6 to reader 9. Also I cannot remove reader 6. I am running Vista

Normally, completely removing old versions and reinstalling the latest version will reassociate all applicable extensions for the program, but it appears to have failed in your case. There may be something else going on with your machine that is producing this behavior. You probably need to investigate that. But what you can do to make sure the defaults are correct is click on the start orb and select 'Default Programs.' Then select 'Associate a file type or protocol with a program.' From the list of file types, select each of the following in turn: acrobatsecuritysettings, fdf, pdf, pdfxml, pdx, xdp, and xfdf. If its default program is not Adobe Reader, click on the Change Program button and select Acrobat Reader from the list (you may need to expand the lower section to display more programs than it initially provides). If Adobe Reader does not show up in the list, you will have to browse for it. It should be located in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe.
This method is safer than manually editing the Root\Classes in the registry.
