Changing position of figure captions (legends)

Hi, I'm using FrameMaker 9, and I have a question about changing the position of figure captions. Currently in all our docs, figure captions are placed above the figure (above the anchored frame) to which they apply, but the powers that be (much to my annoyance) have decreed that they should appear below the figure. Does anyone know a way of changing the position of all anchored frames in relation to the caption paragraph without having to do it manually for each one?
Thanks,
Jim

The fundamentally annoying thing is that Frame doesn't have "above current line" for anchored frames (AFs) or tables.
Unless you use some run-in or at-insertion-point dodge, or you only need one AF/TBL per column (which could use top-of-column), ya gotta have an anchoring line of some sort above the AF/TBL.
... and the caption is below the graphic, the link jumps to the caption, displaying it at the top of the page.
Hack:
Use a tiny unique paragraph format for anchoring, with a to-be-invisible color View, say "Caption.Anchor", pt size 4, keep with next.
Make the subject caption text the text of that Caption.Anchor paragraph.
Anchor the frame or table to that.
Put the visible caption paragraph on the next line (below the AF), or in the TBL, say, format "Caption.Visible", keep with previous.
Make the text of Caption.Visible an Xref, <$paratex> (only) to Caption.Anchor.
Have the TOC generate for Caption.Anchor. Make all hand-typed Xrefs use Caption.Anchor.
Page loss to an invisible anchoring line* is minimal.
The caption now appears to be below the frame.
Hypertext links go to the top of the AF or TBL.
* This can cause slight topline mismatch in multi-column layouts.

Elements 11 change position & scale at the same time

I have Premiere Elements 11. Can I change position and scale of the same clip over time using keyframes? I have figured out how to zoom in and out and how to pan using keyframes, but when I try to do both, the the first effect applied gets reset.

ShaneRoney
Are you in Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded and the Position and Scale properties there? Or are you trying to do keyframing at the Timeline clip's rubberband level?
Assuming the Motion Panel expanded route....
After you hit Toggle Animation with your Timeline Indicator at the start of your segment with Position and Scale at the start values, move the Timeline Indicator right to the next spot, set the Position fields to where you want them, move the Scale to where you want it, and then move the Timeline Indicator right to the next spot as you move across the clip in this routine.
At a fixed Timeline Indicator position do both sets before moving the Timeline Indicator to the next spot.
Assure yourself that you can keyframe Position property by itself and Scale property by itself. Then start again and do both at the same time as suggested above.
If there are still glitches in the process, please describe further, and we will work out the details where we are differing.
Thanks.

Scale multiple clips without changing position?

I'm attempting to scale multiple clips to the same size, however I don't want to change their position. Therefore copy/paste attributes won't do the trick without changing position, as you can only paste the entire "Basic Motion" attribute.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Lee

Thanks for trying to help figure this out Kevan. I'm finding that there is nothing but workarounds to get only scaling to adjust without changing position.
The source stills are all the same size. Basically I was given less than HD stills to begin with, and I'm now replacing those with HD sized stills of all the same size. There are a lot of match frame edits, so I would prefer not to have to reposition everything again.
It doesn't seem unrealistic to think that one should be able to copy/paste only the "scale" value in the clip just as you are able to copy/paste opacity only. Maybe that's a feature for future versions of FCP.
It works if I go through and manually change the scale of each clip to 50%. The positioning stays the same.
And now it seems that I've found the answer to my own question:
1. Reconnect media to the new, hi-rez stills
2. Nest the sequence into a squence that's the same resolution as the new source stills
3. Scale the nest down to fit the HD sequence settings
Retains the original positioning.
Thanks guys!

How to change the text in the legend of a graph programmatically in labview

I have many graphs in one plot and want to show the legend the name of the graph (i.e. the filename). How do I change the text in the legend programmatically?

Create a property node for your graph. Use the property node "Active Plot" to define which plot (or line) you want to rename. Then write the new legend label to the property node "Plot.Name". See attached.

How can I change a minus figure on a web page to show in red?

I would assume that the website sends negative number with a special CSS class code or uses JavaScript to to change the style afterward.
Did it ever work in Firefox?

Images change position and dimension after client edits on admin console!

Hi,
1. After my client uploaded his images onto the site using the admin console they changed position slightly and did not fit exactually into the image frames i had set when i first made the site.
2. When i opened the site on muse and merged changes the images positions and dimensions changed even more than what was being diplayed on the live site? (E.g I originally had two columns of square thumbnails for some slideshows and now i have a single column of rectangle images)
3. I republished to see what would happen it now displays the way it was diplaying in Muse. The site is: www.jacobbuckland.co.uk
My understanding was that when i create an image frame or gallery in muse that any image uploaded via the admin console should fill that frame no matter what the size or dimensions of that image?
Any help gratfully received. Thanks

Our technical team managed to find the immediate cause for the problem, and a solution.
According to them there was a corruption on a speciffic OLAP file. By deleting it, they allowed it to be recreated on the next application processing. The file in question was found in \Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\Data\UGF.0.db\<APPLICATION>.38.cub.xml
Where <APPLICATION> is the name of the problematic cube.
After that everything is working.

My hard drive desktop suddenly will no longer hold or maintain the icons in place when I shut down and restart. The icons all change positions, alphabetically. Just started happening. Any thoughts?

My hard drive desktop suddenly will no longer hold or maintain the icons in place when I shut down and restart. The icons all change positions, alphabetically. Just started happening. I prefer the icons to a list format. Concerned this might be a symptom of a larger problem. Any thoughts?

It's normal for the icons at the top level of the startup disk to revert to the same arrangement every time the Finder is relaunched. If it's important to you to arrange those icons in a persistent way, proceed as follows.
Back up all data.
Open the Info window on the startup disk (labeled "Macintosh HD" unless you gave it another name.) Click the lock icon in the lower right corner of the dialog and authenticate.
In the Sharing & Permissions section, click the plus-sign button to add an entry to the access list. Give yourself "Read and Write" access. This will be a temporary change. Leave the dialog open.
Open the Finder window and arrange the icons as you wish, then close the window.
In the Info dialog, use the minus-sign button to delete the entry you just added to the access list. Don't change anything else. When you're done, it should be the same as when you started. Close the Info dialog.

Impact of changing positions and Org Unit short text

Hi All..
This is regarding the impact of changing positions and Org Unit short text(SAP name - Object Abbreviation, technical field u2013 hrp1000-short).The new approach we are ging to have is to keep short text same across the business unit.
Example:
All position in US will have short text u2013 USS
Similarly All US Org Unit short text will be COMUS
I was wondering, from SAP best practices point of view, do you see any downside in this approach?
Example: Any problem in searching position or org using search term.
Please pin your thoughts...
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi,
Normally such change will not have any impact in PA module.
Only in exceptional cases it will have an impact in following cases:
1. First and mandatory condition that you use abbreviation as position name in IT 0001. If this is the case parameter PLOGI TEXTC (in table T77S0) should be equal X.
2. Second condition is that parameter PLOGI SPLIT is equal to X. That means that change of object name will lead to record split in IT 0001 in PA.
So if in table T77S0 you don't have setting PLOGI TEXTC = X and PLOGI SPLIT = X you can go ahead with change of positions abbreviations. It will have no impact on other modules.
Cheers!

Make sure your entering language and orginal language of the script is same or not.
utilities -> convert orginal language..
Procedure if you are using English as entering language:
Enter script name -> Enter language as DE -> change -> utiliteis -> convert orginal language -> change it DE to EN -> now back and re-enter into script...

Hiding Figure Captions

I have a document with 56 pdfs (one per page) that have figure numbers and titles on them. I need to create a list of figures for the table of contents. Is there a way to use Figure Captioning to do this? Can I hide figure captioning so it doesn't appear on the page but still generates the list in the table of contents?
Thanks,
Diane

You can put the captions in frames marked non-printing in the Attributes panel, or on a layer that is set to non-printing. I like to make them big and red so they are obvious.

Desktop Icons Change Positions After Restart

Hi,
After I inadvertently synced my computer with another Mac computer my icons change position after restart. I was trying to sync another computer to mine.
I have tried the usual suggestions of taking out com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist and letting the system create these new files but the problem still persists. I also checked the Finder > View > Show View Options and arrange by none is still selected.
Does anyone have a suggestion how I can fix this problem? Will I have to go back in time with Time Machine and restore my entire system to solve this?
I can't operate with the desktop icons changing positions like this.
Thanks,
Pacecom

Delete the hidden .DS_Store file associated with your Desktop folder. Launch the Terminal.app (in /Applications/Utilities/), copy & paste the following command into the window that pops up, hit the return key, quit the Terminal.app, OPTION-click and hold the Dock's Finder icon, and select Relaunch:
*rm ~/Desktop/".DS_Store"*
Now, set the Desktop as desired, log out and back in, and the Desktop should be as it was as you last set it.
