You cannot do it with the standard. The image can only be populated via the Webutil CLIENT_READ_IMAGE_FILE() built-in.

Forms 11gR2 - paste from clipboard into image item

Hi, how can I paste image from clipboard straight into an Image item on Form?
If it can't be done via standard Forms functionality, is there any workaround - I mean can Java Bean do it, or maybe drag and drop via Beans Area?
I know it's quite odd functionality, but any hint is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Jack

Hello,
<p>I think that it is not possible. The only ways to populate an Image Item is to use the Read_Image_File() or to query from the database.
You can use a Java Bean that allows to drag and drop an image file.</p>

Paste image from clipboard into image item in Forms10

Hi all!
procedure PASTE_REGION work in Forms6 for image item, but i can't paste in Forms10.
This function is no longer available?

Scripting or coding doesn't work with extending the Silverlight webpart. The source code of the Silverlight webpart isn't available by Microsoft. So you can't modify the code of the Silverlight webpart.
Also it's not supported by Microsoft to modify the Silverlight webpart and it maybe causes trouble with upcoming updates on the webpart as well.

Forms 6i - display into image item picture stored in blob type on database

hi to all
i searched on this forum but in don't found solution my problem.
I created table with a column blob and i design form that insert and display image stored in database ( oracle 9i )
i used image item type with block database based
my version forms is
Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.13.0 (Production)
if i define column table like "long raw" it worked but i used blob i insert but i don't display image
error is:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected got

I know, that the false forms-version (patch) gives you this errors. Try a newer patchset. For example patch 13-15 (for 9i), or 17 (10g rel. 1)

Reduce file size of image a user loads into image field in form

Hello,
I'm a Mediadesigner from Germany and I started to work with Lifcycle Designer about a year ago.
I already made some smaller forms with different fields.
Now I have a special form with empty image fields, that allow the user to put in his images.
For the form goes out to so many different people, some of them just take the images as they are, load them into the form and so the filesize of the pdf grows. For your information: the filled out pdf will be sent back to us by e-mail.
So here is my question: is it possible to reduce the filesize of that images when it is loaded into the fild or when the filled in form is saved.
For example that I can say: "Take all images and make them 72dpi and max. height 500px"?
Thanks for your help in advance!
Carola

Hi,
there is now way to reduce the real file size or dimension of an imported image.
But you can checkt the file size and show a warning to the users to use a smaller file.
Here's a sample which describes how to do so:

Show image item from table into form's item.

Hi Friends,
My problem is:
I have 1 table with 2 cols:
eid number
e_pict blob.
I created a form (block based on this table). I'm able to show any valid image file stored in disk into e_pict (declared as image item) using the built_in READ_IMAGE_FILE. and also able to save it in the table test. But if I want to do the reverse process I mean retrieve the image from table's field to the image item of form, it creates problem. I even cannot compile the post_text_item trigger of eid:
select e_pict into :test.e_pict
from test
where rtrim(eid)=rtrim(:eid);
It is giving error:
bad bind variable 'test.e_pict'
Pls help me.
Regards,
Pragati.

If I declare the image field as long raw instead of blob then also the same problem.
I can save the image from file to database through a form but cannot retrieve an image from database to form.
Pls help.
Thanks in advance,
Pragati.

Problem w/ image item using 9i BLOB field and InterMedia ORDImage Object

Hi,dear all,
I have a problem with image item in Form 6i. Oracle 9i is used as backend DB, and a table contains image data is created for testing:
create table image_test(
id number,
image blob
In Form 6i, there is no problem to create a block for inserting/updating the image record into the database. However, it can not be used to retrieve image (blob field), the image item remains empty after 'execute query', while the id field can be retrieved. When the same table is created in Oracle 8.1.7, and the exact same form can be used without any problem both in inserting and retrieval. It seems that the Oracle 9i does not use the same way to store BLOB column. Has anybody ever encountered this problem? How to retrieve image (BLOB) in Form 6i from Oracle 9i?
I tried to use interMedia ORDImage as the data type in Oracle 9i, that is,
create table image_test(
id number,
image ORDSYS.ORDImage
Same problem, the form can insert record with image, but when retrieving, nothing displayed. Anybody could help! Thanks in advance!

hi!
well working with oracle8i and form6i.
same problem..but i used (instead of blob or clob as datatype..) Long raw..
it can be saved as usual..i mean Commit..
and can be retrieved..using Execute_Query..its working fine..
well if anybody get any other solution..do inform..

do you set correctly the ListUrl parameter? in this case it will be "PublishingImages"

Some JPG images, stored in DB, do not display on screen/image item.

Hi friends,
I have a form to save and retrieve images (JPG, GIF, TIF) to and from DB, using WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.CLIENT_TO_DB and CLIENT_IMAGE.WRITE_IMAGE_FILE respectively.
It’s working fine, but with few JPG images, it stores in DB but do not display on screen/image item.
Secondly, if I try to retrieve and write this JPG to OS (using CLIENT_IMAGE.WRITE_IMAGE_FILE), it prompts error “FRM-47101: Cannot write image file”.
Environment:
Forms [32 Bit] Version 10.1.2.0.2
OS XP Pro 2002 SP3
Oracle DB 11g Enterprise Edition Rel. 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Hi,
I have done a workaround here, which worked for me.
My requirement is to direct save images in DB. So my system was just saving images without knowing if picture would display on form or not later.
I created a (non-DB) image item on form and added a code (CLIENT_IMAGE.READ_IMAGE_FILE) to place image in this image item, if it successfully display image then save image directly in DB using code (WEBUTIL_FILE_TRANSFER.CLIENT_TO_DB).
Note: - If CLIENT_IMAGE.READ_IMAGE_FILE fails it raises exception and it means image has invalid format/internal data header and system does not save image in DB.
Now I have a kind of a filter to stop saving pictures which do not display later on form. :)

Text pasted into Dreamweaver does not bring in line breaks, paragraphs

This has happened to me a couple times and a quick web search has not yielded satisfaction. I've copied text from a web page, tried to paste it into an html doc in Dreamweaver and it all comes in as a single long line. Same clipboard pasted into other editors shows with line breaks... Paste Special in Dreamweaver has not worked for me. Oh... got it, I've been pasting into Design view.. pasting into Code view brings it in properly... Thanks!

Pasting an image into a form

I had wanted to post a reply to a user who also had this problem, but was unable to. Thus, I'd just like to share what I have found to work best for me.
This is concerning pasting an image into a form, not necessarily for pasting an image into a non-form pdf. Also, I am using a Mac, not sure whether the process is the same for PC's.
Firstly, make sure you have saved any image you want to paste into your form as a jpeg.
In Adobe Acrobat Pro (v10.1.3), open the tools panel and select the edit object tool.
Navigate to the page where you wish to paste your image, and right click. Select place image... This will bring up a finder window where you can browse for your image. Select the image you wish to place, and click open. The image will open to its default size, however with the edit object tool still in use, you can scale to your hearts desire!
Once you have finished filling out your form and placing any images, you may save in any format (as pdf, image, etc.) and the document and images should appear as they did when you were editting.

(There's no such thing as Acrobat Reader, I'm guessing you mean just "Reader"...)
You can't insert an image to a text field anyway, it has to be contained inside a button field.
As I said, with Reader it's possible only if:
- Reader XI is used
- The image is in PDF format

How to create, place, format and paste the clipboard contents into a text frame

I am new to scripting and need help. I have an existing Indesign document. I need to be able to create a text frame on my current page, the width of my margins with the top of the text frame at the top margin and 1" in height, then format it to be 1-column, and then paste the clipboard contents into it and tag the text with a particular paragraph style. I am using Indesign CS4 on a mac, if that makes any difference. Thanks for any help.

May this will help you. It will create an anchored object with a text what you desired, with object style. You should create an object style before with the x and y co ordinates. You can choose either para style or character style.
var the_document = app.documents.item(0);
// Create a list of paragraph styles
var list_of_paragraph_styles = the_document.paragraphStyles.everyItem().name;
// Create a list of character styles

// Create a list of object styles
var list_of_object_styles = the_document.objectStyles.everyItem().name;
// Make dialog box for selecting the styles
var the_dialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Create anchored text frames"});
with(the_dialog.dialogColumns.add()){
with(dialogRows.add()){

Show image into an item from URL

Hi all
i have to show a gif image into an item, but the source of the file is in a url
Http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/../../../image.gif
i tried with web.show_document and with read_image_file, but there's something wrong... (forms 6)
could you please suggest me the right way ?
thank you !

show_document is like opening a new browser window so that doesn't work. Read_image_file is like the name suggests for reading a file, not url so that doesn't' work either.
You will need to move you files to a drive that the forms server can reach, or use a Java Bean that can load an image from an URL and perhaps even display it. You might find an existing Bean (I don't know of one) or you may have to write one yourself.

Can you export images which have been pasted into an Illustrator document as separate files?

I have a multi-page Illustrator document (over 50 artboards) which contains lots of images that are all saved within the document (not linked in from seperate files) and all the images need to be exported as separate image files (similar to when you package a file in Indesign). The problem is the files are not linked, they are all saved within the document.
Want to avoid having to copy + paste every image into a new document in Photoshop and save individually as this will take forever.

Save the document as a PDF and Open in Photoshop. Select only the Images in the Open dialog and proceed from there.
