Creating Backgrounds

I used to be able to create new graphic background images for iWeb with AppleWorks-Draw. Now that Appleworks is no longer compatible with Mac OS, does anyone know of a simple way to create your own background images?
Here is a three page sample of some of the graphics I created in AppleWorks-Draw:
http://www.fotofabini.com/Backgrounds/
They can be used for browser or page backgrounds in iWeb. In Draw I could work designs at the pixel level and in any color. Now I can't. Do you know of an alternative?
I posted a similar question in the iWeb forum. Thanks. - Fabe

" Now that Appleworks is no longer compatible with Mac OS"
There have been a number of reports here comfirming that AppleWorks 6.2.9 (and version 6.2.4) work quite well under Leopard. Typing "leopard" into the 'Search Forum' box to the right, just above the 'Welcome, Fabini" message, will get you quickly to most of them.
You might also want to check the brief report on AWUG's tests of AppleWorks and Leopard.
"In Draw I could work designs at the pixel level and in any color. Now I can't. Do you know of an alternative?
Draw produces vector graphics, not bitmaps. While these may be saved in a number of bitmap formats (eg. TIFF or JPEG), the native Draw objects are scaleable, and are rendered at the resolution of the output device. Working "at the pixel level," are you certain you're not using Paint, or a Paint frame within a Draw document?
(In the Paint environment all tools will be active except the Table editing and Cutter tools. In Draw, the eight Paint tools—Selection rectangle, lasso, magic wand, paint brush, pencil, paint bucket, spray can and eraser—are greyed.)

Hi, kavita.
First, make sure you choosed the correct container when you created the background CO.
Second, make sure your package name was "com.examples.bckgco" and class name was "UserDetailsCallableObject". The exception which you got just means you entered incorrect name.
It doesn`t relate to your program.

Create Background jobs

How can i create background jobs and link them to the Event so that they will be triggered? I have no clue on this, can anyone explain in a detailed manner with the Transaction codes for each.
Thanks in advance.

Hi laitha,
JOB is a program which starts to a determined point of time and executes some standard programs in the system. JOBs can be planed to a determined point of time on the regular basis (every night, for example) or to some discret time moments. So, the JOB can be planed and then will be started automatically without the manual start.
Realtime programs are understood in the most cases as actual program execution which is started by somebody to the actual moment of time.
Typically per JOBs some special processes will be started that should be executed automatically and regularly: for example, IDOC application, some correction reports, statistic updates etc.
Standard jobs are those background jobs that should be run regularly in a production SAP System These jobs are usually jobs that clean up parts of the system, such as by deleting old spool requests.
Use
As of Release 4.6C, the Job Definition transaction ( sm36 ) provides a list of important standard jobs, which you can schedule, monitor, and edit.
Standard jobs are those background jobs that should be run regularly in a production SAP System. These jobs are usually jobs that clean up parts of the system, such as by deleting old spool requests.
for more information you can go thru the following thread:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/24/b884388b81ea55e10000009b38f842/frameset.htm
About Events:
Events have meaning only in the background processing system. You can use events only to start background jobs.
Triggering an event notifies the background processing system that a named condition has been reached. The background processing system reacts by starting any jobs that were waiting for the event.
Types of Events:
There are two types of events:
1.)System events are defined by SAP. These events are triggered automatically when such system changes as the activation of a new operation mode take place.
2.)User events are events that you define yourself. You must trigger these events yourself from ABAP or from external programs. You could, for example, signal the arrival of external data to be read into the SAP system by using an external program to trigger a background processing event.The event scheduler processes an event if the event is defined in the system.
For example, if a system (System 1) receives an event from another system (System 2), the event scheduler of System 1 processes the event only if it is defined in System 1. That event does not need to be defined in System 2 (the sending system).
You define an event by assigning a name (EVENTID) to it. When defining an event, you do not define the event arguments.
for more information you can go thru the following thread:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/fa/096e2a543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm
When you schedule the process chain or infopackages the jobs associated with it run in the background mode. In case you want to create a job for a specific activity you can do so in SM36. You would be creating jobs that would get executed in any one of the options:
1. Immediate
2. Date & Time
3. After event.
4. After job.
5. At Operation mode.
In case you want to view the job logs go to sm37.
_List of Background Jobs_
BIREQU - Load of a Request/Reconstruction of a request
BI_AGGR4 - Aggregates activation
BI_BTCH - Any batch job like ABAP program run in background
BI_DELR - Deletion of request
BI_HIER - Hierarchy loading/activation
BI_ODSA - ODS activation
BI_PROCESS_ABAP - ABAP program in process chain
BI_PROCESS_LOADING - Data Loading in process chain using nfopackage
BI_PROCESS_ODSACTIVAT - ODS actiavation in Process chain

Problems creating background job for program (job open, submit and close)

Hi gurus,
im trying to start a background job using the FM BP_START_DATE_EDITOR to show the start date to the job or if it's imediate. this FM it's working fine, after call it im opening a job, submiting it and call the job close FM and the job close FM creates me the job.
The problem it's when i go to the sm37 to see the job status the job has been canceled, and the job log says that i have to give a start date to the job.
What i dont understand it's either the job is imediate or i choose a date to start the job always gives me this error...

Create Background Job after data saved in module

Hello,
I have a program that has a start selection screen with material group, you enter your data, execute. When it has finished you get a ALV of sales order with items where you can make changes to dates and other details and save. I would like to add a save in background option. Is this possible? I assume it would be difficult because of the container.. it uses a bapi to save sale orders...
The employees run this job which takes a little while.. at the end of the day.. they go home and of course SAP has timed out. If they can run it in the background then no problem....
Thanks,
AJ

Inbound IDoc creating background job even for trigger immediately setup

All,
I have a very serious problem in our production system.
Scenario:
Vendor is chagend in system A (Outbound) and the same is interfaced to System B (Inbound) and i am using trigger immediately option, but still I am seeing a background job is created for 'RBDAPP01' and creating the spool request. The issue is I am sending 1000 of idocs and the spool number is increasing daily in system B.
So, can any one explain me why the background job is getting triggered even though I set the partner profile settings as 'Trigger Immediately'.
The above issue is not happening in our quality system it simply updagtes vendor information in system B with out creating any background job. Please note that the same settings are maintained in both the systems.
Your immediate inputs are really valuable for me.
Regards,
Suman

This is an performance issue on the receiving system. In case the system does not have enough resources to process the IDoc immediately it will always schedule a background job to ensure the processing of data.
You need to check whether the system has enough work processes available during the time when 1000 of IDocs are received or send the IDocs in packages with some time in between.
Regards,
Kai

How to creating background

Hi,
1)Iam still new to shake and i need you help. I have some footage which i want to put them over a white background.I have created the white background from Final cut Pro generators.You may have seen of what I am talking about on some music videos.
2)How can i install the shake macro and open them in the node view.
I apologize my question may not be specific , but feel free to correct me .
thanks.

What you need to do is import footage... you can do that a number of ways... use the FileIN node and dig down to find the video files... remember to use VOLUMES to find hard drives.
Or, simply drag the file directly onto the Node window. This will create a FileIn node for you.
Then you'll need some OVER nodes to lay the video over the background and some resize nodes or scale (I'd have to look) or many other nodes to give you scale options.
Good luck and read up on the manual.

How to create background

How can I go about creating an adjustable background like in the following site
http://www.polyalto.com/produits.asp
I presume the width of the background changes depending on the resolution of each monitors.
Thanks guys

This is just an HTML thing. In this case it has nothing to do with Flash. Here's an article that may help to explain the process for you: http://www.graphics.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=567

Create background job triggered by another job

Hi experts,
I want to run FCHU in background everytime I finished run F110.
I'm thinking to use background job creation SM36 - triggered by job. But the problem is, job created from F110 the job name is not fixed.
Please anyone can give better idea ??
Thanks,
Melissa

Hi melissa,
The suggestion given by Prem is perfectly Ok.
I would suggest you to create an event by sm62 and then create an event triggered background job which will run the FCHU in Back ground.
So you need to get an enhancement point in F110 and put the code of triggering the event .
If there is no enhancement then you can create a program which will call the Transaction F110 by using CALL TRANSACTION statement and after F110 processing the control will get back to your program and you can write a code for triggering the event by using the FM SWE_EVENT_CREATE.
I hope this will help you

Hi friends need some help while creating background job

I need to run a batch report in background in SM36 when any cancellation of sales order is done in VL09.

Getting an image inside of a CSS created background transparency to NOT be transparent

I created a div with a partially transparent background color. That is working great. But, inside that div I placed an image and that image is also partially transparent, which I do not want. I want the image to be 100% opaque. I have tried and failed with a variety of styles.
Here is the CSS that makes the background color partially transparent.
#home-text {
    width: 873px;
    margin-right: auto;
    margin-left: auto;
    color: #000;
    background-color: #E4CC92;
    /* for IE */
filter:alpha(opacity=70);
    /* CSS3 standard */
opacity:0.7;
    margin-top: 725px;
    padding-top: 10px;
    padding-left: 35px;
    padding-right: 10px;
    padding-bottom: 20px;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-size: 12px;
    border: 2px solid #421206;
Thank you for any help.

I'm afraid opacity effects everything inside the container.
As a workaround, apply a semi-transparent PNG background-image to your container. This will give the 'see through' effect without degrading opacity on text & images.

Unable to create Background job

Hi All,
I am trying to create a background job for standard program RFBIBL00 from a client QP1-231. But I am not able to do it as I am getting a message that the client differs from the original client qp1-020.
I AM ABLE TO CREATE THE BACKGROUND JOB FROM QP1-020,but not from QP1-231.
Please look into the matter and let me know why I am not able to creat the job from QP1-231.
I promise to reward.

Hi,
Please check with your basis team whether you have authorization for the same.
