Custom display size for Mavericks?

Hi everyone. My monitor's screen resolution is 1280x960. But there isn't an option that is close to this in the display settings on my mac. There is no way to make a custom screen resolution (why not, apple?) and the one that is semi-decent makes my screen look smooshed and stretched out. Is there any way to make my screen resolution to 1280x960?

Display Menu from the App Store gives my Mac Mini the 1280x960 option.

Set custom page size for printing

I want to set a custom page size for printing some PDF three and four-page musical scores to roll paper on an Epson 1290 using Adobe Reader 9.3.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. The printer properties in the print dialog has a media size option, and one of the choices is "custom", but having chosen "custom", the dialog does not allow me to add the actual page size to the lpr printer command. I can see that when I choose "custom", the lpr command is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom etc
but what I need for a three page output, for example, is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom.297x630mm etc
and I can't see how to add the actual custom paper size. If I Ok the media size choice dialog with it just set to PageSize=Custom, I can see from the output preview in the print dialog that the actual page size that has been chosen is letter. The online Adobe doc for Reader 9 printing (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/9.0/content.html#heading2.3) says "For documents that are larger than the standard page size, go to File > Page Setup. Create a custom page size before you print your document". The problem with that is that there is no "Page Setup" option on the File menu in the Unix version of Adobe Reader, only a "Print" option, which is where I already am.
If I open the PDFs in Evince, it allows me to add the custom page sizes I want, but as Evince doesn't have the option to print multiple pages per sheet I can't use it either...

Yes, it used to work, and the resize zoom bar used to work too (now its grayed out). I don't know if this is a "who's to blame for it" thing, but its not getting fixed and its pretty bad that no one seems to care enough even to respond. I found my own solution by opening it in Gimp. Just right click and select open with other ...Gimp and it will import into it. In the Gimp Print dialog, you have a scaling percentage in the "Page Setup" tab, and size settings in the "Image settings" plus loads of other stuff including multiple copies.

Can no longer create custom page size for printing to PDF?

When printing from FrameMaker to PDF in Windows, I used to be able to create a custom page size by clicking on the Add button that appeared to the right of the Adobe PDF Page Size window, in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog box. With Frame 9, that button no longer appears; in fact, the whole dialog box is cut off just inside the edge of the entry windows. Do I need to set something? Thanks for any help you can offer. - Cindy Shaler

Cindy,
I am not sure to what dialog boxes you are referring.
In the PDF Setup dialog box (in FrameMaker's Print dialog or Save as PDF dialog), the Settings tab displays two fields to change the width and height of the paper. I tried entering odd values, and the resulting PDF had the entered size. I see no Add button nor is the dialog box cut off.
Maybe I am not looking at the correct boxes.

Custom Display template for Content Search webpart

Hi,
I am trying to customize the out of the box "slideshow" display template for content search webpart which renders Images.
By default, the slideshow display template has a fixed the image size which is very small. Is it possible to increase the dimensions of the container or control template to show a much larger image size?
Can anyone please help on how to do this?
Thanks,

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to increase the dimensions of the container or control template to show a much larger image size in the Content Search web part.
I recommend to create a custom Display Template (control and Item display templates) and use JQuery Slider plugin to achieve this goal.
More detailed information are provided in the link below:

Custom page sizes for Photosmart 6515

Just unpacked a Photosmart 6515. Running on old xp desktop computer.
My main item I print is 5.5"x8" but the custom option is grayed out. went to properties through the main printers/faxes set up and no option there either to set up custom sizes.
Is there seriously no option to print custom sizes? im not asking for boarderless. and all other hps I have had have always let me easliy set up this size.
Down to the wire for Christmas, don't want to have to return it and start over.
Please Help
-Frustrated

I was able to fool the printer by changing my paper size for the document to an A4 (actual size is 5.8" x 8.3"). Did some test printing on a scrap cut to 5.5 x 8.5 to see how it printed. Tweeked the layout a little and got it to do what I wanted. Would probably work for your 5.5 x 8 as long as you are not printing edge to edge.
Hope this helps. I've NEVER had a printer that did not allow a custom size. NOT HAPPY about the lack of feature. If anyone can tell me how to put in a custom size for this printer model, PLEASE POST IT!
Merry Christmas!

Set custom font size for one column

hey guys! I am trying to decrease the font-size for one column based on an lov and used
style="font-size:8pt"It does not work though! Do you have a hint?
brgds,
seb

Hello Seb,
>> Might it be important whether the column is of type "...based on lov"?
If by "...based on lov" you mean “Display as Text (based on LOV, does not save state)” the answer is yes. This type of column is not treated as an updatable column (the implementation is by using a regular <td> tag and not the <input> tag) so the Apex engine ignores the Element Attributes field.
As far as I can tell, this column can only be styled in the query itself (and you need to implement the LOV yourself).
Another option is to use a select list and disabled it, but the column will appear in gray, and with small font size it doesn’t look that good.

Arie.

Custom Printing Size for 5520

Hello,
I have a HP 5520 and a Mac computer with a OS X 10.6 operating system. I'm trying to create a custom paper size to print a 5.25 x 5.25 in card. This isn't a typical paper size and am having trouble figuring out how to create a custom paper size. I know that I can do it because I've done it in the past but unfortunately do not remember how I figured it out. Any help and step by step instructions would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!

Can't print using custom paper size for HP6520

I'm trying to print Hobby Lobby RSVP cards for a wedding. The size is 5.5" X 8.25". My HP6520 keeps giving me an error that the printer has detected a different size of paper and it won't print. I've gone to Custom and set the size to match, but it still won't print. I have the paper in the bottom tray.

Hi @Saltman1,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you cannot print on a Hobby Lobby RSVP card size is 5.5" X 8.25" with your HP Photosmart 6520 on Windows 8. I am happy to look into this for you!
According to your printer's specifications, this is an unsupported card size for this printer. The supported card sizes are:
Card type
Card size
3 x 5 in Index
76.2 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in)
4 x 6 in Index
101.6 x 152 mm (4 x 6 in)
5 x 8 in Index
127 x 203.2 mm (5 x 8 in)
However, as a workaround, you might be able to assign an alternate driver by going to this post, How to Assign Alternate Print Drivers in Different Versions of Windows, by @Shane_R, and then doing a custom size print by going to this guide, Create Custom Paper Sizes in Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X.
Otherwise, I would suggest getting the proper size of paper for this printer as indicated in the chart above.
Hope this information clears things up for you, and have a great day!

Is it possible to enter a custom canvas size for videos shot in portrait

I'm working on a project for a client that needs to string together several hundred videos that were all shot on an iPhone in portrait. I have found where I can change the "Video Properties" by clicking the wrench icon in the properties inspector, but I cannot figure out a way to enter a custom size. Vimeo supports vertical video, so I would like to keep the vertical format and edit the videos together using FCPX. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks Tom. I was able to crop the videos by purchasing Quicktime Pro 7 and using a mask. I did not realize that Quicktime Pro 7 would work on Lion, but it seems to be working fine.
Thanks!

Creating a custom boot image for Mavericks

Hello Apple Community!
I realize that this question might have been asked a few times already, but I found nothing using the search function (nothing that satisfied me, that is).
My task is simple: We have several different Macs at the office (Mostly MacBook Airs and Pros, some iMacs too) and whenever a new employee join us, I need to install all the software for that person. That is a bit of a cumbersome and repetitive process, so I wanted to know if and how it would be possible to create custom, universally working (i.e. on all different models that we're using at our institute) disk images that contain all the preinstalled software packages that we're using....
We are using Mavericks ATM, but we will migrate to Yosemite eventually (though not until I stop hearing people complain about Yosemite's apparent random bugs).
Is there a guide to this somewhere? Would someone please point out where I could find such information?
Thank you guys.

I created my own simply by installing OS X on an external USB drive then booting into that drive, setting up just an Administrator account, installing all the software I needed and set it aside.
If I ever need to reinstall OS X, I boot into the USB's Recovery HD and run Disk Utility's Restore function pointing my Source to the USB drive and Destination to the Mac's internal drive.

Anyway to create custom page size for designjet 500? wasting way too much paper!

just got a hp designjet 500 from jobsite. hooked up to mac. everything prints fine................
EXCEPT
ok i did a simple test 'strip' in adobe illustrator setting the width of the document to 36" which is the size of the paper roll i'm using. i had placed a couple of strips of the same objects with different color fills close to the bottom of the 'artboard'. when going to select print i realized that the printer only recognizes standard page sizes and does not allow me to change to a custom size to say like 36"w by 4" h. so the print came out in the center of a 48" long size piece of paper which obviously wastes soooo much paper.
so i can't create a custom size print page is there a way to have it print close to the bottom margin, turn off the cutting feature, print it, cut manually then move the paper back via the machine or would i have to do it manually and realign the paper and setup after every print?
thanks in advance!

This forum is focused on consumer level products. For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP Designjet forum here.
Be sure to mention your operating system when you post there.

Custom display template for search

HI
I have Created a custom Item Template as shown below.I want to map this with my custom result type but it is not working

</dl>
</div>
</div>

</div>
</body>
</html>
If you see in "managedPropertyMapping" I have added a new property "SEDWMPNewsPublishDate" and when I use in my html I am not getting the value.
I checked with fiddler and I found that This property is not getting mapped. Json object does return this property.However this property has value. I have tested with content search webpart nad my code also.it returns value.
Can anyone let me know is there any issue in the above rendering template code
On update to this, I was using resultscript webpart on the page to display data and I have created custom result type to modify the display.What I found that when I add the custom properties which I need, on result script webpart using as
follows
scriptWebPart.SelectedPropertiesJson = "[\"SEDWMPNewsPublishDate\",\"SEDWMPIntroduction\"]"
and save the changes then I start getting the value of my custom properties.
I don't know how the result type works in accordance with display templates and when does it gets applied on the search data.If anyone is aware please let me know.
If I can't use the display templates with custom properties then what is the use of ManagedPropertyMapping on display templates.Can anyone please make me understand?

You need to update the js file also.You can upload the js file also.In js file you have a column "ManagedPropertyMapping" this denotes which managed property should come for item in search.
For uploading the js file you can use as follows under module
<File Path="ModSearchDisplayTemplates\x.js" Url="x.js" Type="GhostableInLibrary">
<Property Name="Title" Value="xjs" />
<Property Name="MasterPageDescription" Value="$Resources:Microsoft.Office.Server.Search,DisplayTemplateDescription_SearchDefaultItem" />
<Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:TemplateContentType_Code_Name" />
<Property Name="DisplayTemplateLevel" Value="Item" />
<Property Name="TemplateHidden" Value="0" />
<Property Name="TargetControlType" Value=";#SearchResults;#" />
<Property Name="HtmlDesignLockedFile" Value="TRUE" />
<Property Name="ManagedPropertyMapping" Value="'Title':'Title','Path':'Path','Description':'Description','EditorOWSUSER':'EditorOWSUSER','LastModifiedTime':'LastModifiedTime','CollapsingStatus':'CollapsingStatus','DocId':'DocId','FileExtension':'FileExtension','ParentLink':'ParentLink','FileType':'FileType','IsContainer':'IsContainer','SEDWMPNewsPublishDate00':'SEDWMPNewsPublishDate00','SEDWMPIntroduction':'SEDWMPIntroduction','SEDWMPNewsIsSticky':'SEDWMPNewsIsSticky','SEDWMPNewsPostThreadId':'SEDWMPNewsPostThreadId'"/>

Maximum External Display Size for GT70 Dominator Pro 889?

Hey all, new to the forums. I tried googling the subject question but cant seem to find anything. Just got my GT70 Dominator Pro 889, it has the 17.3 inch display, GTX 880 8 GB, 16 GB RAM, i7-4810, and a TB HD with a 128 GB SSD. I figured I'd test it out on my Samsung 60 inch LED TV. It has a refresh rate of 120 HZ and is full HD 1920x1080. I assumed the laptop could handle it but this would be the first time I tried something like this, I always used to use desktops that I build for gaming till now. I ran Max Payne 3 all graphics to the max. Now on just the laptop screen I get insanely solid frame rates, no question about that. I tried using my big screen and the game chugs and struggles with FPS under 20. My question is is my TV wayyyy too big to handle gaming from the laptop or is there something I'm missing? I know this is meant to have an additional 3 screens running at once but I figured why not with the TV but I'm aware 60 inches is a lot of ground to cover.

Hi,
What I think is that it's mainly because it's @120Hz, rather than standard 60. 1920x1080 should be easily handled, as even with my low end notebook (nvidia gt315, i3) I was using my TV @1920x1080 with 60Hz and the only fps drop was around 5 in game like Modern Warfare 2.
Also: it is capable of 3 screens, but not really for such heavy gaming. Even highest end GPU won't handle game at highest settings and with 3 screens; lower video settings a bit from highest and see how it goes. Also make sure that NB's screen is not going to be used while you use TV.

Set display size for headless Mac Mini?

Hello.
I want to set the display on my Mac Mini (headless, control via ARD) to a widescreen setting, but since no monitor is attached, it doesn't give me the option for a widescreen display.
Any ideas how to force it to a widescreen display setting?
Thanks,
Kristin.

I found that online : http://www.macvroom.com/node/39
And I've used it once to set a mac mini to automatically switch to a non-standard resolution to display properly on some sort of strange flat-screen tv.
If you find additional info, please post for reference, can always be useful.

Customizing display profile for a role ends with a blank portal

I have a custom TabContainerProvider with 4 tabs (containers with two channels). I need one of them to be visible only to a specific role. So I created a role (static), assigned this role to users, and in portal console with the role selected I've put the 4th container with its two channels to the TabContainerProvider. When I log in as a user with the role, I see "The desktop you are using is not yet configured with any channel in it. To get started with deploying sample content, see below."
When I do the same, but with the users selected (so I enable the container with its channels to all of the users with the role but not for the role itself), it works.
What can be wrong? Where should I look for hints?

Please make sure the Parent Container for the role is set correctly. When you create a new role, the Parent Container will be set to DefaultChannel by default. To verify this,
1. launch the portal admin console, i.e. http://host/psconsole
2. goto portals --> portalID --> specify your role for the Select DN drop down
3. verify that the Parent Container setting for the role is not DefaultChannel, instead it should be set to the Parent Container used by your portal.
Hope this helps. dean.
