Command to move window to another desk?

i was wonding if there's a command to move a window to another desk. Also is there a "command line" thread because that would be really helpfull to people like me who don't know how to use it at all and would like to learn a little at their own pase, Thanks

GNOME is a desktop environment, but that doesn't settle what window manager you're using, which would also be helpful to know. I think most GNOME users use either metacity or compiz, but strictly speaking there are quite a few others you might be using too, from openbox to a tiling wm. As for tools that work with a variety of window managers, xdotool has already been mentioned, and there's also wmctrl. But there's a good chance your window manager has something specific that might work even better. For example, in Compiz, activating the "Put" plugin will allow you to define key-bindings for sending windows to particular workspaces, or to adjacent ones.

Shortcut to move window to another desktop

I have a couple desktops setup on my OS X.
What is the shortcut to move a window to another desktop? I know I can drag it using the mouse but I have magicmousophobia and prefer to use the keyboard.

Hi User_014,
If you are looking for alternate ways to move windows across multiple spaces in Mavericks, you may find the following article helpful:
Move a window from one space to another
Do one of the following:
Drag the window to the edge of your screen and pause; after a moment, the window is switched to the next space.
Move the pointer over the window, then hold down the mouse button while pressing the Control key and an arrow key.
From the space that has the window you want to move, zoom to Mission Control. Then drag the window itself (not the thumbnail image) up to the space you want to use.

How do I move tabs from one window to another window?

With the previous version of firefox, I could drag a tab from one window to another window. (and if there was only one tab left in that window, it would automatically close that window because there were no more tabs open in it)
With the latest version of firefox, '''How do you drag or move a tab from one window to another window'''

Hi,
To move to the next tab it's '''Ctrl''' + '''Tab''' or '''Ctrl''' + '''Pg Dn''' (Page Down). To go to the previous tabs (reverse order) it's '''Ctrl''' + '''Shift''' + '''Tab''' or '''Ctrl''' + '''Pg Up''' (Page Up) keys.

QT Playlist, or Run movies one afther another in same window maybe?

What am i missing here?
Is it possible that QT can't open and run more movies and play it one after another in the same window?
Let's say if i dont want to use VLC or any other player, or PlayList plug inn's etc... (they are ugly ) and want to go to my movies, select two new movie trailers, want to show it, par example, to friend, and clik "open" ,"open with QT" or cmnd+O, whatsoever...but what happens? I get 2 movie windows on desktop. But i want to watch one (or many as i want) trailers after another, and got less desktop space used... :S
Hm, is this some weird Apple principle, or what?
What solutions do you guys use?
FrontRow looks like goodone but i got PPC G4 iMac, and i wont buy new one just for that!

This is beyond anything I have ever tried. But I think I know what you have in mind, and you should be able to do it using JavaScript. I did it with still images on this page:
http://capital2.capital.edu/admin-staff/dalthoff/adventures/tr2005/ohfair2.html
You would need to give the movie container a name so that you can access it from JavaScript, and you have the added problem of needing to control the QuickTime object from JavaScript. Have a look at the QuickTime JavaScript API; it might be helpful:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/quicktime/Conceptual/QTScripting_JavaSc ript/index.html
In spite of the code on that gallery page I linked above, I really don't speak JavaScript, and I barely understand how my own code works. But I think JavaScript will allow you to do what you want to do, and you can probably even write a custom controller for the movie right into your web page.

How to move a window to another, existing space that already has windows

NOT happy with the new Mission Control. Give me back spaces!
I have been using virtual desktops (VDT) for years and I often work 14 to 18 hours a day on my mac..
I can reorder my spaces in MC but that seems to be about all I can do and it really is ******* me off.
I need to be able to drag a single window from 1 space to another space where I already have another application running. This was TRIVIAL in SPACES but seems impossible in MC.
example: I have a text file of notes in vi in one VDT and in another I have a browser window open to a customer location where I need to use or add to those notes with some complexity. I want to move that notes window from the VDT that it is in (because there are other apps there) to the current VDT so that I can easily use the notes and the browser together. I do NOT want to have to make the stupid vi window in ALL spaces. How do I do this?
another example: I have a browser with multiple tabs and I want to move ONE of them to another VDT. I can pull the tab to make another window.. But I can't move just that tab to another VDT!! How can I do that?
Please please PLEASE fix this in Mountain Lion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to start from the Desktop where the window is currently living to move it to another Desktop.
If you are using Safari in Full Screen, that screen is its own desktop and can't be moved to another desktop. If you are not in Full screen, go to the desktop that hosts the window and drag it to another Desktop in MC.

Moving tabs from one window to another makes the new window vanish. I have hot corners enabled so when I move up to the right corner of my display I can see all my open windows but when I click on the tab that I moved to make it its own window it vanishes

Moving tabs from one window to another makes the new window vanish. I have hot corners enabled so when I move up to the right corner of my display I can see all my open windows but when I click on the tab that I moved to make it its own window it vanishes

I came up with an alternative solution.
Instead of actually trying to move the JInternalFrame from one JDesktopPane to another, I added a single, maximized JInternalFrame to the left side. When one of the right side frames is to be docked, I merely copy its ContentPane to the single JInternalFrame on the left, set the original to be non-visible, and adjust the properties of the JSplitPane to make the "docked" frame appear.
When the "close" button on the docked frame is pressed, I simply undo this procedure to "undock" the frame and redisplay it on the right-hand side (with its content intact from the docked frame, but in its original position).

The first AAA server listed in your config will always be used unless/until it becomes unavailable. At that point the NAD would move down to the next AAA server defined on the list and use that one until it becomes unavailable and then move to third one, and so on.
If you want to use two AAA servers at the same time then you will need to put a load balancer in front of them. Then the virtual IP (vip) will be listed in the NADs vs the individual AAA servers' IPs.
I hope this helps!
Thank you for rating helpful posts!

SFTP Receiver adapter - move file to another folder

Hello Experts,
       Thanks for helping me so far.
       I have a new scenario IDoc --> PI --> SFTP (Flat File).
       The requirement is that, after the flat file is successfully placed in SFTP into a folder, the same file should move to other folder.
       Client has suggested this because to make sure that the full file need to pick up only after the successful placing.
       Please suggest your valuable thoughts.
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
I agree with both Janus and Hareesh.
But still if you want to do it as suggested by client then here is the way.
Use Option "Run OS Command after Message Processing" in your SFTP channel. You would have to do following things to use it :
1. Write a SFTP script (or get it done by someone good at it) which does the following
      creates SFTP connection between PI server to SFTP server
      Moves the file SFTP adapter placed in first directory and moves it to another directory
2. Place the script file on the PI application somewhere
3. Mention the script file along with full path of application server directory where script file is placed.
Here is reference of this option
SAP XI File Adapter OS Command Line Feature - Process Integration - SCN Wiki
XI: Operation system command - error catching
Only thing which would change in your case would be that instead of batch file it would be script file which you would be using if your PI server operating system would be UNIX. If your PI application server is based on the Windows Operating system then you would have to manage using the batch file.
Thanks,
Amit

[SOLVED] gnome: how to move window to other monitor with hotkey?

now if I understand right gnome does not support a hotkey or option to move a window to another monitor by default (eg. after having been installed with
pacman -S gnome
so I think the solution is to use an alternate window manager (I think the default is metacity) so my question is which window manager should I use that has this feature (criteria are relatively lightweight, stable and easily set up)? also can anyone point me to instructions on how to install a non-standard window manager with a desktop environment?
thanks in advance and sorry for the newbie question.
Last edited by crashandburn4 (2013-07-15 02:03:08)

I don't use gnome, but if you extend the desktop, don't you just have to move the window out of the view of the one screen to the other?
I'm using i3, a tiling window manager. it's very lightweight and easy to setup. just install the whole group "i3" together with the package "dmenu", edit ~/.xinitrc to run "exec i3" and start it using the startx command
you can use the arander to configure how the screens are aranged.
in i3 you can move a whole "desktop" to another screen, or just move programms to other "desktops", just read the manual on their website

Automator - How do I: Mouse Click, Move Windows, and more

Hello,
I am attempting to create my own Automator programs and for a while I had some that worked nicely. I have recently been tweaking my iMac so that it can "think" on its own (by automator of course) and do things for me. However, I've run across a block with Mavericks (I believe it's due to Mavericks).
1. How can I get Automator to register a mouse click? "Watch me do" does not seem to want to work for me at all. I also would prefer if it would just be a registered mouse click, but not actually use the mouse (I know this is possible) so that if I'm doing something and it runs, it won't disturb my mouse and I can keep working.
2. How can I register a keyboard stroke? Same as above
3. How can I have automator move windows? I have two monitors and there are times when I may want it to move a window from one mintor to another
The following is a list of all the things I'm attempting to accomplish at the moment (with other things when I think of them) with automator (either through applications, folder actions, or ical actions):
1. Register a mouse click at a given area or on a given element in a safari page
2. Register a keyboard stroke in a given program (be able to focus on a program and then do the keystroke)
3. Move windows from one location to another
4. Full-screen and Un-full-screen iTunes at certain times of day
5. Download all purchased items on iTunes that aren't on the computer (sometimes iTunes doesn't download stuff if it was downloaded on my MacBook Pro first)
6. Automatically voice read reminders (that I've set in Reminders) each day at a given time (I can use loop to repeat it to make sure I hear it all)
I'll think of more of course, but the mouse click, keyboard stroke, and moving windows is the big thing I'm trying to figure out how to do. Can anyone help?
Also, I am not a computer tech. I am tinkering with this because it's fun and helpful, but an answer of "just use applescript" or "just use java" will likely just give me a headache. I know that it's going to be one of those codes, but I'm hoping someone has a "base" code that can be copied and pasted that's just a standard click that I can adjust for where I need to click and what process I need to click on.
If there is an Action Pack that includes a "Register Mouse Click" and/or "Register Keyboard Stroke", then that would work great, but the only action packs for automator I've seen that work with Mavericks is for photoshop.

You're asking for a lot in one post. It would be better to break your requests down a bit.
For example, to deal with mouse clicks, you can use the Automator Action Run Shell Script with this python script:
import sys
import time
from Quartz.CoreGraphics import *
def mouseEvent(type, posx, posy):
        theEvent = CGEventCreateMouseEvent(None, type, (posx,posy), kCGMouseButtonLeft)
        CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, theEvent)
def mousemove(posx,posy):
        mouseEvent(kCGEventMouseMoved, posx,posy);
def mouseclick(posx,posy):
        mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDown, posx,posy);
        mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseUp, posx,posy);
ourEvent = CGEventCreate(None);
# Save current mouse position
currentpos=CGEventGetLocation(ourEvent);
# Click the "Apple"
mouseclick(25, 5);
# 1 second delay
time.sleep(1);
# Restore mouse position
mousemove(int(currentpos.x),int(currentpos.y))
It will look like this in Automator:
To drag something (i.e. a window, a file icon) from position 40,60 to 60,300:
import time
from Quartz.CoreGraphics import *
def mouseEvent(type, posx, posy):
           theEvent = CGEventCreateMouseEvent(None, type, (posx,posy), kCGMouseButtonLeft)
           CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, theEvent)
def mousemove(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventMouseMoved, posx,posy);
def mouseclickdn(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDown, posx,posy);
def mouseclickup(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseUp, posx,posy);
def mousedrag(posx,posy):
           mouseEvent(kCGEventLeftMouseDragged, posx,posy);
ourEvent = CGEventCreate(None);
# Save current mouse position
currentpos=CGEventGetLocation(ourEvent);
# move mouse to upper left of screen
mouseclickdn(40, 60);
# drag icon to new location
mousedrag(60, 300);
# release mouse
mouseclickup(60, 300);
# necessary delay
time.sleep(1);
# return mouse to start positon
mouseclickdn(int(currentpos.x),int(currentpos.y));
For keystokes in AppleScript (which can be added to Automator with the Run Applescript Action) see: http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/keycodes.php

How do I move booksmark to another machine without replacing the bookmarks on the new machine, i.e combine a number of bookmark files

I'm setting up a laptop and want to have all the bookmarks from my desk machine to be moved there from different accounts, but in end up in one file so that I don't have to have loads of separate accounts.

You need to combine all the links to one HTML file.
You only need a file with Anchor links like this:

If you export bookmarks to an HTML file then you create a copy of your bookmarks and you edit that copy and you do not affect the original bookmarks.

Command to move content left/right in Smartform label for zebra printer

Issue : Command to move print content left/right in Smartform label for zebra printer.
Requirement : If you changed the printer setting top position and left position, Print should start from a specific (X,Y) position.
I am facing an issue while printing a smartfroms in different zebra printer. We had tried all
S_LZPL_SETUP_X (Where X is LH/SPD/MD/PM/FT )
But these command are not working in smartforms.
We had used ZPL II printer command like u2018LH X,Yu2019 and u2018FT,X,Yu2019 in main window as well as in subsequent windows. But that also not working.
Please advice.
dinesh.

Hi,
If you follow notes #750002 and #750772 and use a smartforms and device type LZEB2, then the you cn just adjust the position of the text in the smartform. e.g. Use tab-stops, spaces or adjust the position of the window. There is no need to use ZPL2 commands directly.

Spaces switches away from application when moving window to another monitor

Using multiple monitors in Mavericks:
I often want a window from the same application on each monitor. Why? Because I'm working in one window, and I want to refer to another. Mostly it's the brower (Firefox), but sometimes it's Word or Excel too although I think this is a Mavericks issue.
Here's the issue: When I move the a window to another monitor, Spaces on the original monitor changes away from the current application.
This is frustrating, because I have to keep Cmd Tabbing to get back to my original application on both monitors... how do I prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

This reply from Grzegortz Krzminski was helpful - problem solved:
"Hover your mouse over the tasbar icon of the application (the thumbnail preview appears) > right click on the thumbnail preview > select Move > hold the button and move the window."

SQL Developer BRIDGE command from command line on Windows environment

Is it possible to call SQL Developer BRIDGE command from command line on Windows environment?

Hi <please supply your name>,
SQL Developer Worksheet is not available from the command line.
The BRIDGE command is only supported in the Worksheet.
Its an interesting idea though. Are you trying to script data move from a non Oracle database to an Oracle database using the BRIDGE command?
The BRIDGE command was initially done to allow a simple data move from a non Oracle database to Oracle. We then build the "Copy to Oracle" feature out of it.
http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/cross-database-bridge-statement.html
http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/copy-to-oracle.html
Since the BRIDGE command references connection names, which have to be defined in UI of SQL Developer any solution to run this on the command line would have to work this out.
There are number of ways you can do this without using the BRIDGE command.
1) Perform a capture/convert of your non Oracle database and then generate the "offline" data move scripts.
Theses scripts use SQL*Loader and your non Oracle database tool (Ex: Sybase BCP).
These are run from the command line and can be modified ....
2) Use a database link from your Oracle database to your non Oracle database and reference /query the data that way.
I would interested to hear your thoughts.
Regards,
Dermot

To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
