Change dimension caption

Hi,
I've created a new appset by copying the APPSHELL which includes an entity dimension. The caption for this is "Entities for Planning, Consolidation and Ownership".
I have tried, several times by now, to change this. Each time I selected the entity dimension in the admin console, clicked on "Modify dimension", changed the name and confirmed. Each time I got no error message.
However, the caption is still the original one.
Has anyone seen this before and knows what to do so I can change the caption?
Thanks,
Arnold

Hi Arnold,
Have you tried Processing & Refreshing the Dimension and check again?
Thanks,
Abhishek Khatti

Aggregating Slowly Changing Dimension

Hi All:
I have a problem with whole lot of changes in the dimension values (SCD), need to create a view or stored procedure:
Two Tables within the Oracle db are joined
Tbl1: Store Summary consisting of Store ID, SUM(Sales Qty)
Tbl2(View): Store View created which consists of Store ID, Name, Store_Latest_ID
Join Relationship: Store_summary.Store_ID = Store_View.Store_ID
If I’m pulling up the report its giving me this info
Ex:
Store ID: Name, Sales_Qty , Store_Latest_ID
121, Kansas, $1200, 1101
1101, Dallas, $1400, 1200
1200, Irvine, $ 1800, Null
141, Gering, $500, 1462
1462, Scott, $1500, Null
1346,Calif,$1500,0
There is no effective date within the store view, but can be added if requested.
Constraints in the Output:
1)     If the Store Latest ID = 0 that means the store id is hasn’t been shifted (Ex: Store ID = 1346)
2)     If the Store Latest ID = ‘XXXX’ then that replaces the old Store ID and the next records will be added to the db to the new Store ID ( Ex: 121 to 1101, 1101 to 1200, 141 to 1462)
3)     Output Needed: Everything rolled up to the New Store ID irrespective of the # of records or within the view or store procedure whenever there is a Store Latest ID that should be assigned to the Store ID (Ex: the Max Latest Store ID Record for all the changing Store ID Values) and if the value of Latest Store ID is 0 then no change of the record.
I need the output to look like
Store ID: Name, Sales_Qty , Store_Latest_ID
1200,Irvine,$4400,Null
1462,Scott,$2000,Null
1346,Calif,$1500,Null or 0
The Query I wrote for the view creation:
Select ss.Store_ID, ss.Sales_Qty, 0 as Store_Latest_ID
From Store_Summary ss, Store_Details sd
Where ss.Store_ID=sd.Store_ID and sd.Store_Latest_ID is null
union
Select sd.Store_Latest_ID, ss.Sales_Qty, null
From Store_Summary ss, Store_Details sd
Where ss.Store_ID=sd.Store_Latest_ID and sd.Store_Latest_ID is not null
And placing a join to the created view to Store Summary ended up getting the aggreagation values without rolling up and also the Store ID's which are not having latest ids are ending up with a value 0 and the ss quantity aggregated, and if there are changes within store id for more than two times then its not aggreagating the ss quatity to the latest and also its not giving the store name of the latest store id.
I need help to create a view or stored procedure
Please let me know if you have any questions, Thanks.
Any suggestions would be really Grateful.
Thanks
Vamsi

Hi
Please see the following example
ID- Name -Dependants
100 - Tom - 5
101 - Rick -2
102 - Sunil -2
See the above contents...assume the ID represents employee ID and the dependants include parents, spouse and kids....
After sometime, dependants may increase over a period of time but noone is sure when exactly it will increase.....assume in case of a single get married and increase in dependants
So the attributes of the Employee had a slow chance of changing over the time
This kind of dimensions are called slowly changing dimensions

SQL Server Agent Jobs error for Slowly changing dimension

Hi,
I have implemented Slowly changing dimension in 5 of my packages for lookup insert/update.
All the packages are running good in SSDT. And when i deployed the project to SSISDB and run the packages all are running successfully. But when i created a job out of that and run the packages, then 3 packages ran successfully and 2 packages failed.
When i opened All Execution Report. I found the following error:
Message
Message Source Name

Then i opened Provider package in SSDT and changed the source reading record limit from 4,00,000 to 15,000 in source query and deployed again and run, then the job succeeded. more than 15,000 failed.
And in the 2nd experiment, I removed slowly changing dimension task and implemented normal lookup for insert/update, and set the source reading limit again to 4,00,000 and deployed again and run, then the job succeeded.
Now i am not able to figure out, what exactly is the problem with Slowly changing dimension task for more than 15,00 records in SQL Server Agent Job run?
Can anybody pls help me out.
Thanks
Bikram

Hi Vikash,
As i have mentioned in the above post, below 2 scenarios:
"Then i opened Provider package in SSDT and changed the source reading record limit from 4,00,000 to 15,000 in source
query and deployed again and run, then the job succeeded. more than 15,000 failed.
And in the 2nd experiment, I removed slowly changing dimension task and implemented normal lookup for insert/update, and set the source reading limit again to 4,00,000 and deployed again and run, then the job succeeded."
That means i am able to connect to sql server.
But if i change the 1st scenario and read 4,00,000 records, the job fails and shows the above mentioned error.
Similarly in the 2nd scenario, if i implement SCD look up, the job fails and shows the above mentioned error.
And i am consistently reproducing this.
Thanks
Bikram

How to change the caption of a field with a button?

I have serious trouble, don't know why, in order to change the caption of a field.
I can't do it with a button as in any other way...dropdown list, ecc...
Assumes that we have a button and "on click" i want to change the caption of a numeric or text field.
form1.ppp.Button1::click - (FormCalc, client)
NumericField1.caption.value.text.value = "whatever you want to set it to";
TextField1.caption.value.text.value = "whatever you want to set it to";
xfa.form.form1.ppp.NumericField1.rawValue = xfa.form.form1.ppp.NumericField1.rawValue + 1;
The numerical value inside the numericalfield1 is increased each click...but the caption still the same.
Why this happen?
I check many threads on this forum and on google and i still find these samples...
please help.
Thank you

Yes, it is. Also in preview i checked "dynamic XML". is it right?

Cannot Change Photo Caption in Lightroom 2.3

I am not able to get Lightroom 2.3 to change the caption of photos taken with a Sony A100. The caption reads "Sony DSC." All of my efforts to change this caption to something else have failed, including use of the "Save Metadata to File" command. While the program initially reflects a change or deletion in the caption at first, when I navigate away from the photo and then return, it always reverts to "Sony DSC." If someone can suggest a different approach or a workaround it would be much appreciated. Note that this does not seem to be a problem with Photoshop Elements 6. I have not yet tried to see if I can make this change in Bridge yet. Thanks.

I have given up trying to find a solution in LR. It stubbornly overwrites "Sony DSC" on every photo I import and wipes out all changes I try to make in the caption field. I have not found a direct fix in LR, causing me nothing but frustration. But I have found a workaround which sounds complicated but is really quite simple. The key is to import via the import utility in PS Bridge rather than with the LR import dialogue. You wipe out the description field which contains "Sony DSC" in Bridge. Then you synchronize the folder in LR. Problem solved. Here are the steps for Windows users.
Step 1: Create a Custom Template in Bridge. (a) Go to Tools - Create Metadata Template; (b) In the "Create Metadata Template" dialogue box: (1) under the "IPTC (IIM, legacy)" tab, place a check in the box next to "Description" and leave the field to the right blank (make sure no other boxes are checked); (2) under the "IPTC Core" tab, place a check in the box next to "Description" and leave the field to the right blank; (c) In the "Template Name" field replace "Untitled" with "Clear Sony DSC" (or whatever you want to call your template).
Step 2: Import your photos with the import tool in Bridge (the key is not to import with LR).
Step 3: (a) navigate to the newly imported file of images; (b) in Metadata view click on the top image in the folder and shift click on the last image in the folder to select all; (c) right click on one of the selected images and click on "File info . . .; (d) In the dialogue box that appears, click on the down arrow next to the "Import" button; (e) one of the options should be "Clear Sony DSC" (or whatever you named your template), click on that: (f) an "Import Options" dialogue box will appear, with three choices. Choose the first of the three "Clear existing properties and replace with template properties." (Note this will only overwrite "Sony DSC" in the description fields of the metadata and leave those fields blank and will not overwrite any other metadata.); (g) That will return you to the File Information dialogue box. Click the "OK" button at the bottom. Bridge will now take some time overwriting the description fields in the metadata attached to your images.
Step 4: Go to LR. In the Develop module navigate to the folder in which this new folder of images was placed by Bridge. In the top menu go to Library - Synchronize Folders. Lightroom will now capture this folder of images in your LR catalogue and the attached metadata but thankfully not the troublesome "Sony DSC", so you should be free to edit the caption field in LR. Do not use "Import Photos from Disk at this seems to recreate the problem and results in duplicate images.
Let me know if this works for you.

Changing Dimensions of menu items in menubar

I wanted to make the menu items have an auto width instead of
a fixed with. So I followed the direction in the Help file under
"Change dimensions of menu items" to change the .css. The menu
items now seem to stretch to fit the width of the text, but the
secondary menus now display horizontally instead of vertically
below the top menu item. This is only in Explorer 6 & 7. Works
fine in Firefox.

Hi Kayo,
You'll want to checkout these samples:

Change the caption property to TextField

Hi
I have a TextField
I need to change the value of it Caption Property in Run Time
Who is that?
Thanks all

You can do this using some simple JavaScript or FormCalc script on an event.
Let's say you wanted to change the caption of a field at the click of a button. You could use the following JavaScript on the button's Click event:
TextField1.caption.value.resolveNode("#text").value = "test";
You could also use the following FormCalc script:
TextField1.caption.value.#text = "test"
I've attached a sample form which has a button and a text field on it. Clicking on the button will change the text field's caption to "test".

Can I change the captions font?

Is it possible to change the captions font in PSE5? Also, is it possible to change the location of where the caption prints on photos? If so, how is this done?

> In the User Guide it is in Chapter 8, Managing files and catalogs. The section heading is "Adding captions and notes."
Yes those are Creations - I believe that one is a slide show and the other is a calendar.
When doing the PRINT (click on printer icon), then choosing Individual as the type of print and checking Caption in the options, I believe that the only choice is to have the caption printed below and to the left of the photo.
Are you using the entire page of paper after you print or are you cutting out prints - like multiple 4x6 prints from one piece of paper?
If you are using the entire page of paper, then try this - start with CREATE and then choose PHOTO LAYOUT and pick a simple layout with no background. After the layout contents display you will have the ability to place the text wherever you wish ON the photo as well as change the color and the font.
You will be working in the Editor workspace for the Photo Layout and if you have never used the Elements Text Tool it may seem a little strange at first.
Now with this photo layout you can do more complex backgrounds and embellishments. However if you do not choose any background when you start the photo layout, it will look similar to doing a Print.
So I suggest that you look at the Photo Layout function and see if it looks like it will be beneficial for you.

How to implement mapping for a slowly changing dimension

Hello,
I don't have any experience with OWB and I need some help.
I just don't know how to create the ETL process for a slowly changing dimension.
My scenario is that I have 2 operative systems providing customer information, a staging area and a dwh with a customer dimension with SCD type 2 (created within OWB).
The oltp data is already transferred to the staging area. But how should the mapping for the dwh table look like? Which operators have to be used?
I have to check whether the customer record is new or just updated. How can I check every attribute? A new record shall be loaded, an updated record shall be historized (as I configured it in the SCD type 2). I just don't know how the trigger of the SCD is activated. Do I have to try an update on the trigger attribute and then automaticalle a new record is created? But with which operator can I do this? How should the mapping look like? Or is this impossible and do I have to implement this functionality with SQL code only?
I know how to implement this with SQL code, but my task is to implement this in OWB.
As you see I did not understand the logic of OWB so far and I hope somebody can help me.
Greetings,
Joerg

Joerg,
Check the blog below which provides good detail and also check the OWB documentation

Slow change dimension

Hi al,
How slow changing dimension will support SID?
The following is the advantages with SLOW CHANGING DIMENSION.
1)language support
2) master data independent of infosource
3) uses numeric as indexes for faster access.
plz explain the above points with example . i did not get that point.
plz explain in detail. I will assign fulll points.
Thanx & Regards,

Hi Ravichandra,
I feel that the advantages that you have mentioned above also applies to dimensions of a cube in general. Slowly changing dimensions is data modelling concept in my view not physically present in the system.
But thanks to your question i was able to deep dive into this concept and increase my knowledge.
I found this link helpful http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slowly_changing_dimension

Still cannot change radio caption color by script

Hello,
I've been trying to follow advice seen in other threads when developers wanted to inactivate radio button choices by script, and also turn the caption grey. What I'm finding is I can deactivate the choice but I just cannot turn the caption grey.
If the exclusion group is named "MyRadioChoice" and the choices are (say) "Choice1", "Choice2", "Choice3" and due to other user input Choice3 becomes inapplicable, then the wisdom is this should work:
MyRadioChoice.Choice3.access = "readOnly";
MyRadioChoice.Choice3.caption.font.fill.color = "192,192,192";
The first statement works, the choice can no longer be clicked. But the second does not work, I just can't change the caption color. THe script does not throw any errors, it just plain doesn't work. Can anybody help?

You were right. That problem was driving me crazy. Thank you for the solution.

Slow changing dimensions in application express GUI

I need some kind of slow changing dimensions for application express GUI in order to be able
1) simply allow users to edit 1 row for 1 object in APEX GUI
2) widely use historical data in reporting.
I.E.:
Client's Last name (address, etc) was changed. I need to show in reports two points: before change and after:
ID Name Order_date Amount
12 Clark 1/1/10 500
12 Johnson 5/1/10 200
Are there common solutions?

There are probably a few approaches you can take:
1) Fine Grained Auditing (FGA) - very extensive and can be completely customized.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14266/cfgaudit.htm#sthref1766
2) Triggers - if you have basic needs on a few tables/columns, it may be easier to just roll your own trigger. You can compare the :old to the :new value, and if they differ, write both to your own auditing table.
