Customized Caption Type Not Working

I'm new to Captivate and I've been trying to create a custom caption background. I'd like a simple blue box to go behind my header text, but for some reason even after following the directions from Adobe, the program is having weird issues. My BMP files are the same size as the samples that come with Captivate, but for some reason the caption style does not "stretch" to go around the text completely. The result is below. I'm just focusing on the header at the moment.
What it's doing:
What I want it to do:

Here's the deal
There are actually two pixels that are significant in this mix. Certainly the pixel in the upper left corner is used as the transparent color. So you might consider creating an image similar to below:
The hot fuschia color would all be rendered as transparent because that is the color of the upper left pixel.
If memory serves, there is another pixel somewhere in the center that is also used in the mix. This happens when the caption is rescaled.
Be sure you make the image small enough so the caption will be as small as you need it. Captions may only be as small in Captivate as the size of the bitmap image you create.
One other tip here. As you are refining the caption, work with a blank project. Tweak the caption and the fcm file, use it in a blank project to test. Need tweaking? Scrap the blank project and start over. This is because once a caption has been used it is cached in the Captivate project file and any changes will usually not be reflected unless you rename the caption!

Custom Process Types not working in SAP BPC 10.0

Hi Experts,
We have migrated from SAP BPC 7.5 NW to SAP BPC 10.0 NW.
We have three Custom Process Types created in BPC 7.5NW using the super class CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR as super class.
It has been made Obsolete and Final class in BPC 10.0NW and the Custom Process types are not running as expected.
Can you please suggest if there is any alternative for using the existing custom process types? Or do we have any alternative for creating custom process types?
*Note: We have tried replacing the superclass with CL_UJD_ACTOR instead of CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR but of no use.
Regards,
Balraj.

Hi Inl,
The statement looks fine, just confirm:
Your CATEGORY dimension is named CATEGORY? Is it really has property COMPARISOIN?
Can you show the screenshot of UJKT run of script?
What is your core BPC SP?

Customized transaction type not working

In Change Request Management, we have copied a transaction type from "Normal Correction" and tried to customize it. We have also copied a new action profile for this new transaction type. And copied exactly the same action conditions. However, when I trigger action "Set to 'In Development' " and save the change. Status of the message does not change to "In Development" as "Normal Correction" did.
Is there any setting missing that I should do?

Hi Martin,
have you followed the instruction in the IMG, when copying the transaction type?
IMG: SPRO -> Configuration -> Scenario-Specific Settings -> Change Request Management -> Important Information
See copy of the IMG activity below:
IMG ###########################
<i>Important Information</i>
Before you start to configure Change Request Management, make sure that you have performed all the Solution Manager IMG activities under the following nodes:
Solution Manager -> Basic Settings
Solution Manager -> Scenario-Specific Settings -> General Settings
When you copy the standard Change Request Customizing into customer namespace, you should just change the first character to Y or Z e.g. SDCR -> YDCR or ZDCR but not Z1CR, if you change more characters you should be aware that modifications will be necessary and it is not standard SAP. This restriction is required for all CRM related objects like catalog, transaction type, status schema ...

Ukelele generated custom keyboard layouts not working in Lion?

I asked this question in the stackexchange site a few days ago. Nothing I've tried has worked so far, except for creating a new account. Because a fresh account works, it's got to be something with my preferences, right?
http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/21691/ukelele-generated-custom-keyboard -layouts-not-working-in-lion
Here's the question from above:
I created a custom keyboard layout with Ukelele (http://scripts.sil.org/ukelele) in Snow Leopard (idea is to generate scandinavian letters with Alt-key, otherwise have a pretty much standard U.S. layout). After the upgrade, the old installed (to ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts) layout wasn't working.
Ukelele seems to work OK in Lion, but whether I put the generated keylayout in a bundle or single file, or save it "/Library/Keyboard Layouts" or "~/Library/Keyboard Layouts" doesn't seem to matter.
Help?
EDIT:
@Sergio, I cannot choose the layout in Input Sources. One keylayout file I tried:http://semeai.org/~sjl/us-scands.keylayout
[EDIT: Removed unrelated stuff]
UPDATE 2011/08/15:
@Tom:
Copied your keylayout (it naturally ended up in my Junk folder):
midgard (01:55) >ls -l ~/Library/Keyboard\ Layouts/MongolianQWERTY.keylayout-rw-r--r--@ 1 sjl staff 44536 Mar 13 2008 /Users/sjl/Library/Keyboard Layouts/MongolianQWERTY.keylayout
Logged out, logged in, isn't showing in Input sources (I'm looking very closely between "Maori" and "Myanmar - QWERTY").
I've also uninstalled bunch of software and plugins giving suspicious messages to system.log, but hasn't helped.
UPDATE 2011/08/16:
I created a test account, and lo, the layout works perfectly for it. Also the bug in preferences doesn't show for that account. When trying this on my own account, there are no errors in Console logs with the suggested keywords (I can't seem to locate console.log file, though).
UPDATE 2011/08/16 later:
Nuking Library/Caches (and relogging) didn't help.
UPDATE 2011/08/17:
I did
% find Library -name "*.plist" -exec mv {} {}.renamed \;
and restarted, but it didn't help. I restored the situation with
% for file in `find Library -name "*.plist.renamed"`; \ do mv "$file" "${file//.renamed/}"; done
addendum: I also went through all the .plist files with plutil -s as described inhttp://www.askdavetaylor.com/can_i_check_my_plist_files_in_mac_os_x_for_problems .html. There was some brokennes, but in very unrelated applications.

Tom,
I think I love you.
That absolutely did it! Thanks so much!
If you'll answer with the same link in the stackexchange site, I'll mark the answer as correct, so you'll get the rep there.
Thanks,
Sami

Safari 5.1 customized keyboard shortcut not working

I've just updated safari on snow leopard and my customized keyboard shortcut: go to next/previous panel (ctrl -> and ctrl <-) don't work anymore even if i set them in my system preferences

I'm also experiencing issues with custom keyboard shortcuts not working after the update to Safari 5.1. I had no problems with the previous version of Safari.... I wish I had not updated.

Custom rendering extensions not working in SSRS Report Designer (rsreportdesigner.config)

My custom rendering extension is working in Report Builder (in RSReportServer.config), but not in Report Designer (in RSReportDesigner.config): instead of adding a "TXT" export option, it's just adding a duplicate "CSV" option.
SUMMARY:
Is there a way to get these features working, with Report Designer?
DETAILS:
We are running SSRS (Reporting Services) under SQL Server 2008 R2.
Here's my rendering section:
    <Render>
      <Extension Name="XML" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.XmlDataReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering" />
      <Extension Name="CSV" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering" />
      
      <Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering">
       <OverrideNames>
           <Name Language="en-US">TXT(ASCII,NoColHds)</Name>
       </OverrideNames>
       <Configuration>
          <DeviceInfo>
              <FileExtension>txt</FileExtension>
               <FieldDelimiter>,</FieldDelimiter>
               <Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
               <NoHeader>true</NoHeader>
           </DeviceInfo>
       </Configuration>
      </Extension>
      <Extension Name="IMAGE" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.ImageRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering" />
      <Extension Name="PDF" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ImageRenderer.PDFRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ImageRendering" />
      <Extension Name="HTML4.0" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.Html40RenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" Visible="false" />
      <Extension Name="MHTML" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.HtmlRenderer.MHtmlRenderingExtension,Microsoft.ReportingServices.HtmlRendering" />
      <Extension Name="RPL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.RPLRendering.RPLRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.RPLRendering" Visible="false" />
      <Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering" />
      <Extension Name="WORD" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.WordRenderer.WordDocumentRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.WordRendering" />
    </Render>
When I add the above "TXT" section to RSReportServer.config, then Report Builder (and production) both show an export option "TXT(ASCII,NoColHds)".
But when I add this "TXT" section to RSReportDesigner.config, and then (in Report Designer / BIDS) attempt to export from a "Preview" of the report, the export drop-down does not show a "CSV" option followed by a "TXT"
option, but instead shows the "CSV" option twice.
This simply limits testing of the export option, to Report Builder... or requires any reports be published from Report Designer before they can be tested with
this export option.
(FYI, why this export option: compliance in our industry requires sending data to government agencies, in text files, with fixed-length columns, and ASCII encoding. Also, we're attempting to give the production of these files to the *users* managing
communication with those agencies... so we're putting them into SSRS.
I worked around the fixed length columns (and no delimiters -- no commas), by writing a version of the report where all string columns are padded, and all columns are concatenated, to form ONE LONG COLUMN... but Reporting Services' CSV export format produces
a Unicode file (UTF-8, which the agency rejected, because it had a leading "ï»¿", or "EF BB BF" in hex), whereas the agency requires an ASCII file.)

Hi Doug_atMidway,
According to your description, you want to enable your custom render extension. Right?
In Reporting Services, if you want to deploy the custom extension, you just need to add the extension into rsreportserver.config file. The
RSReportDesigner.config file stores settings about the rendering extensions available to Report Designer. Since you still use the csv rendering extension in your assembly, we don't need to do any modification in rsreportdesigner.config file. Pleaes
refer to the links below:
Thanks for attempting to help, Simon.
As my question states, I've *already done* both the above: changed (1) rsreportserver.config and (2) rsreportdesigner.config. I added the same code, shown above, to both files. I did that so I could see the new "txt" extension
both (1) when exporting in production and Report Builder, and (2) when exporting in Report Designer's "preview".
The change in (2) is not working: I do not see the "TXT" extension in Report Designer, when I try to export from a preview. Instead, Report Designer shows the CSV extension repeated.
Thanks for the docs. I consulted them (well, I consulted the EQUIVALENT pages, for SQL Server 2008 R2), when creating my block of code above.
Do you see anything to correct, in my code?
Are the features I'm using actually working, with rsreportdesigner.config?
Thanks again,
-- Doug

Required field in custom content type not required in custom list instance

I have an issue with a custom SharePoint 2013 solution. Among other components, it consists of:
a feature with several custom fields with different types, some of which are taxonomy fields,
a feature with three custom content types using different sets of the custom fields with partially different configuration, e.g. whether they are required or not,
a feature with a custom document library template and instance using two of the custom content types and a default picture library that is programmatically customized when the feature is activated, e.g. it is assigned the third custom content type.
When deploying the solution and activating the feature, everything is set up correctly except a single taxonomy field for one of the doc lib's content types. It is defined to be required in both content types but indeed it does not show up as required for
the default content type whereas everything works fine for the other. And it does not matter which of the two custom content types is defined first (= default) in the list template's schema.xml, the issue always occurs for the same taxonomy field in the doc
lib's default content type. When I use the built-in Document content type as default, the field is required for both custom content types. However, using the Document content type is not an option.
If you think this behavior is not strange enough: When the list content type's field is set required through the SharePoint UI, it becomes optional again when the list column is updated, e.g. its display name is changed.
Any ideas?

Exception handling with fault message type not working

Hi,
I have a sync proxy to proxy scenario and I have created a fault MT and specified in the outbound and Inbound service interface...
*In Inbound proxy I have the following code--*......
RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE z_cx_test_fault
EXPORTING
standard = l_standard_data.
In the sender side abap code which calls the outbound proxy I have the follwing code -
CATCH cx_ai_system_fault INTO lo_cx_ai_system_fault.
txt = lo_cx_ai_system_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
CATCH z_cx_test_fault INTO lo_cx_test_fault.
txt = lo_cx_standard_message_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
CATCH cx_ai_application_fault INTO lo_cx_ai_application_fault.
txt = lo_cx_ai_application_fault->get_text( ).
WRITE txt.
when i test the inbound proxy separately I get the custom fault message properly...
however when i run the proxy to proxy sync scenario and the custom exceptionz_cx_test_fault is raised inside the receiver proxy .......control goes to CATCH cx_ai_application_fault and not CATCH z_cx_test_fault .
I understand that cx_ai_application_fault is the super class of all the exception class but why does control go to its exception handling when a custom exception is raised...

Hi
I tried changing the sequence also but it did not work...
I can see an appropriate response coming from the receiver in SXMB_MONI of PI...this response has the "fault response "
"fault detail" data that I want.....however when the control goes to the sender why does it go to CATCH CX_AI_APPLICATION_FAULT and not not my CATCH z_cx_test_fault .
My observation - If I change the scenario to SOAP to Proxy sync..then the sender SOAP client gets the appropriate custom fault message back.

ADF Custom error handler not working.

Hi All,
i am using jdev version 11.1.1.5.0. i have created one custom error handler class in model layer which extend DcErrorHandlerImpl class.
and do the entry in Databinding.cpx file
*<Application ErrorHandlerClass="mypackage.classname"/>*
i have override getDisplayMessage(BindingContext ctx, Exception ex) method to show SQL Exception which comes from database table trigger.
code is following-
package com.in.jagran.view.services;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    import oracle.adf.model.BindingContext;
    import oracle.adf.model.binding.DCErrorHandlerImpl;
    import oracle.jbo.JboException;
    public class AclasErrorHandler extends DCErrorHandlerImpl {
      public AclasErrorHandler(boolean setToThrow) {
        super(setToThrow);
        System.out.println("Inside Error Handler class");
      public AclasErrorHandler() {
          super(true);
       // this(true);
       * Returns the message that will be reported to JSF for each error that occurs.
       * Returning "null" is the way the custom error handler signals that a given exception
       * should not be reported to the client.
      @Override
      public String getDisplayMessage(BindingContext ctx, Exception ex)
        if (ex instanceof oracle.jbo.ValidationException) {
          return super.getDisplayMessage(ctx, ex);
        else {
          // Extract and return the error message that has to be displayed
          Exception exception = ex;
          String message = "";
          // If this exception is an instance of JboException,
          // try to find the cause by recursing over the eventual causing exceptions
          if (exception instanceof JboException)
            Throwable[] exceptionList = ((JboException)exception).getExceptions();
            while (exception instanceof JboException
                    && exceptionList != null && exceptionList.length > 0)
              exception = (Exception)exceptionList[0];
              if (exception instanceof JboException) {
                exceptionList = ((JboException)exception).getExceptions();
          // *** Special processing of SQLExceptions
          if (exception instanceof SQLException) {
            message = exception.getMessage();
            // Ignore the lines in the error message that indicate the line number in the PLSQL code that the error resulted on.
            int ind = message.indexOf("ORA-06512");
            if (ind > 0)
              message = message.substring(0, ind);
          // *** If the the reason for the JboException was data creation exception then display the message
          // of the top JboException (i.e. JBO-*****: Invalid numeric value, date format or time format)
          else if (exception instanceof NumberFormatException || exception instanceof IllegalArgumentException) {
            // Report the top exception
            message = ex.getMessage();
          // Otherwise report the message of the lowest exception in the hierarchy
          else {
            message = exception.getMessage();
          return message;
    }but it is not working for me.
thanks in Advance.

yes i have used dubugger.
i have set break point to following line-
return super.getDisplayMessage(ctx, ex);
if (ex instanceof oracle.jbo.ValidationException) {
        return super.getDisplayMessage(ctx, ex);
}when atttribute validation done like i have attribute of type number and i have done the validation "must be greater than 0" now when i have given negative value control go to above line.
and i have added following code also in handler class
        @Override
           public void reportException(DCBindingContainer dCBindingContainer,
                                       Exception exception) {
System.out.println(exception.getMessage());
                   super.reportException(dCBindingContainer, exception);
               }now when i have done commit operation control go to here and println statement print follwoing error on log window.

Custom movement type not showing up in pull-down menu

Hi all,
I created a custom movement type to transfer QI stock in one plant to QI stock in another plant. The movement is working correctly in MIGO by choosing transfer and then entering my custom movement type into the movement type field; however, it's not showing up if you just do a pull down. You must enter it manually for it to work. Does anyone know what I missed on the setup that's making it not show up in the list?
Thanks!

Creating new logical ports for WSDL with several port types not working

Hi all,
I am trying to integrate some BODS webservice into the BPM. I am using CE 7.2 Kernel Version: 7.20.3710. When I am trying to assign a provider system in the application configuration I get following error:
The provider system successfully found the needed service, but its wsdl is without webservice policy. Thus the generated client configuration might not work because of different configurations between service and client (most probable a difference in the security settings). Either assign a provider system with access to wsdl with policy or manually create the client configuration.
The regarding provider system is using a communication profil where the authentication method is set to "none". Normally this configuration should work, but it isn't.
So I started to create new logical ports for each port type. But then I get the error:
Port type name of loaded WSDL does not match the port type name of the Service Reference.
I checked already the port type names in the WSDL but they are 100% the same. What I found was that the configuration is always trying to use the first port type in the WSDL. So I am not able to configure the other port types in the service group.
I also tried to do the same thing using a WSDL with just one port type and surprise it is working...
I hope somebody can help me out
Thanks in advance

B2B Custom Document Type not getting identified

Hello,
I have installed Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g on my local machine and created a custom document type with proper .xsd definition and XPath Expression Identifier in Oracle B2B interface and configured its trading partners ( Host & Remote ) along with an agreement between the partners.
I have also configured the host listening channel of Generic-File type which picks xml files from my c:\orclsrvs_in folder.
My problem is that the moment I drop any sample file in the expected directory, it gets picked up from B2B , but there isn't any record of the same under Reports and Metrics links.
The Business message, Application message and Conversation message tabs are also not showing any information about the record picked, but in wire message tab, the record is shown in PROCESSING state.
I am not able to conclude whats wrong behind this.. where can i track the logs for the same ??
kindly help to resolve this issue.
Thanks & Regards
Hiteshkumar Chaudhary

Hi Hitesh,
i came to know that B2B extracts the TP name from the filename itselfYes, in case of Generic File, Generic SFTP and Generic FTP, file name provides the necessary values to Oracle B2B to identify the Trading Partner. You can define your own file name format in the Delivery Channel under Transport Protocol Parameters in field "Filename format" (It's an optional field but it is always good to define your own format, otherwise B2B will take it's default format - TradingPartner_DocumentType_Revision_msgType_msgId_replytoMsgID_extension.xml ). Following Filename formats can be used -
%FROM_PARTY%
%TO_PARTY%
%DOCTYPE_NAME%
%DOCTYPE_REVISION%
%MSG_ID%
%TIMESTAMP%
These file name formats can be used in any combination; for example,
%TO_PARTY%_%DOCTYPE_NAME%_%DOCTYPE_REVISION%.dat
Note - Any file extension is allowed.
what are the system parameters to be set in weblogic console and how?? This activity is part of the pre and post installation steps. If you have done those without getting any errors then nothing else is required.
how shall I reinstall XEngine properly ??XEngine is part of B2B installation. If B2B gets installed without flashing any errors then we assume that other components of this part has installed properly.

Anuj

Smartform : line type not working fine when used on Next page

Hi ,
Please help on below :
I have a smartform and have line type which is used in printing the items.
When I use this line type on very first page , it works fine.
But for the next page which is the exact copy of first page ,
the line type does not work fine with printing first line item on next page,
it refreshed the work area which i am printing. so on the next page very first element gets all the values 000
But on the next iteration it works fine and does not refresh work area.
Please see why is such abnormal behavior happening.
Regards,
Uma Dave

Hi Ameya
there might be syntax error. Try to get what exaclty is an error using following code.
CALL FUNCTION <smartform>
    EXCEPTIONS
    IF SY-SUBRC 0.
       CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_READ_ERRORS'
            IMPORTING
                 ERRORTAB = IT_ERRORLIST.
     ENDIF.
In IT_ERRORLIST you will get error message.

Custom Actions do not work if list is customized with InfoPath?

I am trying to add the display form ribbon custom action, or even the edit form ribbon action, but they do not work if I use a list that was customized in InfoPath?
they work fine on an out of the box list? I am able to do the list item menu actions, but the other ribbon commands are missing?Does InfoPath use a different layout that overwrites these commands?

Hi,
yes your custom actions disappears when you customize with infopath forms.
