Create path or outline just like text

hi , For text i can easily use TYPE / Create Outlines
but what about Create Path Around Object or PNG with Transparancy ?
i know about using Pen Tool and create Path , but it takes much time and my final work not perfect as i want
is there any tips to create path around and image object ?

Arioman,
For vector artwork (if you refer to that by Object), you may use the Appearance palette flyout and Add New Stroke (you may add multiple ones with desired Stroke weight and Colour (and Transparency>Opacity maybe set to 0%). You may drag the new stroke below the fill to have only the outer half of it appear (so you may have to double the stroke Weight).
For raster images with transparency, you may redraw the outer shape with the appropriate tools (Pen Tool, Ellipse Tool, whatever suitable), or you may Auto/Live Trace the outer shape (you may need to expand), and then apply whichever Stroke Weight, Colour, whatever, desired.
For raster images with just a rectangular border, you may Object>flatten Transparency, then Ungroup and Flatten Transparency and apply the stroke to the path that was a Clipping Mask; you may use Object>Offset Path by half the Stroke Weight if you want the stroked path to be outside the image. There may be other ways in the newest version(s).

Creating j2me GUI s just like j2se in Netbeans

I am a j2se programmer. I know nothing about j2me. Can we design GUIs for mobile apps just like we do in j2se application? I saw one option in netbeans visual midb(forget it) to design GUI. but i couldnt create effectively as i do in j2se.
can anyone explain how to create GUI in netbeans for mobile app?

Yes, you are right.
From the time I posted my question I tried to make a similar GUI in NetBeans and I noticed that NetBeans included the following code for the GUI:
javax.swing.GroupLayout layout = new javax.swing.GroupLayout(getContentPane());
        getContentPane().setLayout(layout);
        layout.setHorizontalGroup(
            layout.createParallelGroup(javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
            .addComponent(UpToolbar, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, 400, Short.MAX_VALUE)
            .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
                .addGap(10, 10, 10)
                .addComponent(tabbedPane2, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, 380, Short.MAX_VALUE)
                .addContainerGap())
        layout.setVerticalGroup(
            layout.createParallelGroup(javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
            .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
                .addComponent(UpToolbar, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, javax.swing.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE)
                .addPreferredGap(javax.swing.LayoutStyle.ComponentPlacement.RELATED)
                .addComponent(tabbedPane2, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, 182, Short.MAX_VALUE)
                .addContainerGap())
        pack();I just adapted the code to my initial project and it works much more better.
Still the icon pics look very poor, like I am using a 800x600 resolution. They look so old...And the fonts used for the menus are bolded...
I will look on the forum for a way to make the GUI use some normal fonts.
Thank you, camickr , for your response ;)

How to create a TEST form just like in workshop

Hello
I am using WL Workshop 7.0.2. and Java 1.4. Could anyone pls tell me how to create
my own test form like in Workshop.
Is it possible to have a HTML client without any java class or JSP in between
the HTML form and the webservices(jws). In workshop I know that knexServlet is
somehow resposible for creating the test form in work shop.
Any example which has used webservices created by workshop and has a HTML form
has a client.
Any HELP will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
madhu

Thanks Anurag,
Could you point me to some rich JSP client example, (not the HelloWorld or MazeDisplay).
preferably which takes a XML as request.
Thanks
madhu

Madhu,
To call a webservice, a client using HTTP should be able to send a SOAP
request to the server hosting the webservice. Generally, it is complicated
to code the SOAP request manually and hence clients use a proxy on their
side to do the job for them. For a Java client, this job is taken care
of by
the client proxy JAR file which can either be downloaded from the Test
View
web page or generated using the <clientgen> ant task.
Requests from the Test View page are given special treatment, and there
is
special functionality provided in the server to help in iterative
development using the Test View.
For any client other than the Test View such special wiring is not
available. Hence you need to use a JSP or a Java class on the client
side.

Anurag

In iMovie 10.0.5 ('14) how can I create a Camera Archive (just like in iMovie '11)?

I used to be able to import a Camera Archive in the previous version of iMovie. How can I do the same with the latest iMovie version (10.0.5)? Is it even possible?
Thanks!

Thanks for the tip QuickTimeKirk. Out of curiosity: does this mean that it is no longer possible to create camera archives in the latest version of iMovie? Or with the changes in the iMovie platform, is it enough with simply dragging the AVCHD package into your laptop?

Hi - just using the new iMovie for the first time - apparently there should be a sidebar containing tools like "Content Library". Not on mine - even in Window view, Content Library features like text etc are all greyed out - obviously it's me - help?

Sorry - I should have added that I have imported a Quicktime movie, originally created as an iPhoto slideshow.
I want to create rolling credits at the movie end and apparently you can only do this using iMovie - can you help please?

Creating INCLUDE, just like REPORT prog.?

Hi Experts,
One simple question, pls. clarify ma that,
In the process of VA01-Sales Order creation, I need to do not allow to create/save that doc. if PO#, MATNR, Batch r already existing in DB! in this case, I need to write logic in SAPMV45A, I found the corresponding User exit, so, I wanna insert my code as INCLUDE my_prog_code.
So, to write INCLUDE, Is it just like Report prog.? like, SE38>my_name>create--->Type->INCLDE selection?
Or any other things I hv to consider, to write a INCLUDE?
thanq

That is correct way to create an INCLUDE program. Just make sure that you correctly call the routines in the user exit and give reference of this program.
Here is a pseudo logic.
FORM USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK.
perform validate_DATA(<your include program name>).
ENDFORM.
Your code for routine VALIDATE_DATA will be placed in the include program.

Creating an Internet Shortcut to the desktop just like Internet Explorer.

Hi!
I am running FF24 and would like to create a shortcut of a website to the desktop just like Internet Explorer. I have read a solution that has me resizing FF and feel that it is clumsy and unproductive.
Does anyone know of an Add-On to this great feature in IE?
Not only for Windows XP but for 7 & 8, as well.
Surprised that the smarties at Mozilla did not put any thought into this.
TIA :)

Hi jscher2000,
Thanks for your timely response!
I installed and configured it, double checked settings, but it does not create anything on the desktop in XP. Very strange.
Any suggestions welcome.
Cheers,
Compumind :)

How can you create subtitles just like in movies?

Hi, I recently purchased Final Cut Pro X and I was wondering how to create subtitles just like in movies. Thanks

Does FCP X support subtitles like you see in Blu-ray or DVD? I.e. subtitles for the narrative?
I know you can put titles but subtitles would be something that needs to keep "changing".

Transfer footage iMovie 08 to iMovie 06 HD & change outline color for text

I have a completed video that is basically all stills. I would like to transfer the stills in their current sequence and if possible with their current crop styles ie Ken Burns without having to start ALL over. Is this possible? Just downloaded 06 HD because I wanted more editing options that iMovie 08 seems to be lacking.
Also, how do you change the outline color for text in titles? At one point it switched from black to white but I have no idea how it happened... now its back to black.
Lastly, are we only allowed to place music exactly at the head of a clip or is there a setting I am unable to find that unlocks that "snap to" function?
Thank you.

Thanks....I was thinking that was probably it. Will be a little time consuming, but I'll feel better in the end knowing a vacation and bunch of summer stuff is back on tape for archiving.

How to create a drag outline while using custom drag source.

Hi All,
I am creating a plugin using sdk for cs2 in windows. I need to create a text frame on the document when I drag a text widget from a panel. I am using a custom drag source controller for the same and not dragsource as I am performing more requirements. This does not create a drag outline region. There is a method called 'DoMakeDragOutlineRegion' in the Basicdragdrop example provided in sdk. But it does not draw any outline. Is there something missed out in this example or do I need to add anything more to this existing code? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Pirathip.

The BasicDragDrop example is misleading and as you found leaves out the interesting parts. E.g. that drop feedback drawing which is of course not factorised for reuse. Good news though, you should only need to go that far for own flavors (e.g. drop a color from color panel).
Unless you give more details on those "requirements" you better make the best out of a target flavor helper.
If you need custom drawing, search the SDK for keywords like ISprite, ITracker, HitTest ...

How to create Base Dimensions with MaxL and Text File?

Hi,
Doing a scratch rebuild of a cube every month. Don't want to have a 'dummy' outline with base dimensions to copy over every build. Instead want to build from text file somehow. Thus my plan is to: 1) Delete the existing app/db 2) Create a new blank app/db 3) Create the base dimensions in the outline via text file and 4) Build entire outline via a text file. I'm stuck on #3 how to get the 'base dimensions' built via text file. I need:
ACCOUNTS
PERIOD
VALUE
VIEWS
SCENARIO
CUSTOM4
YEAR
CUSTOM3
CUSTOM2
ENTITY
CUSTOM1
I see this MaxL, but it uses a 'rules file' and I never have built a rules file to create base dims so I'm confused if it's possible or not...
import database sample.basic dimensions
from data_file '/data/calcdat.txt'
using rules_file '/data/rulesfile.rul'
on error append to '/logs/dimbuild.log';

We rebuild our Departments and Organization from an enterprise hierarchy master each week.
The way we implemented (what you call #3) was to not do #1 and #2, but to have a "destructive" load rule for each of these dimensions using a text file. (in the "Dimension Build Settings" for the load rule, select "Remove Unspecified" to make it destructive)
The text file just has the dimension name (parent) and any children we needed defined in a parent/child relationship. For instance
"Sales Departments" "0100-All Departments"
This essentially works the same as deleting the app because the destructive load rules will drop all the blocks of data that were unspecified.
Then we run our SQL load rule to build the rest of the dimensions from the Location Master.
We perform a level-0 export prior to this process, then reload the level-0 data and execute all the consolidation scripts to get the data back (now in a current enterprise defined hierarchy)
