Decrease Light Table Size?

Is there a way to decrease the size of a light table? I've searched around the documentation I have and don't see any way to do that.
I was trying to slightly increase the size of a light table I was working in when Aperture suddenly slowed down (I suppose it was doing something in the background). I held the image I was dragging to one side of the table and then suddenly Aperture became responsive again and the size of my table just shot up in the direction I was dragging that image. It's about twice the size I want it to be now and I have work on it I don't want to loose by simply deleting it and creating a new one.

Is there a way to decrease the size of a light table?
I've searched around the documentation I have and
don't see any way to do that.
Just at the top of the light table window is a little slider.

Is it possible to see decrease of table size & size of tablespace

Hello
I wander is it possible to see decrease of table size & size of tablespace(in db02 or in brtools). I have in mind decrease due to archiving in XI.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
Yes it is possible to decrease of table size & inturn size of tablespace.
You can go for table reorg.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70c8f19f-8010-2c10-ac89-8d828039d8b4.
Check SAP Note 541538 - FAQ: Reorganization
Also
1.From DB02--> detail analysis menu you can take out top 50 tables & indexes. you can mark the size of the index should be generally less than the table.If its more or very much similar size of table, you can rebuild it using SE14. This can free some space.
or else you may use brspace to do this.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/58/6bec38c9fa7e44b7f2163905863575/frameset.htm
In case of table this option is risky as it may result in data loss.
2. Earlywatch alert gives the top 20 degenrated index. you can check that which also gives a factor 'storage quality'.
3. Run report SAP_DROP_TMPTABLES. It removes temporary database objects. ( we do this in our BW system)
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

TABLE SIZE NOT DECREASING AFTER DELETION. BLOCKS NOT BEING RE-USED

Hi ,
Problem:
Table size before deletion: 40GB
Total rows before deletion: over 200000
Rows deleted=190000 rows
Table size after deletion is more (as new data was inserted meanwhile).
Purpose of table:
This table is a sort of transaction table.
Whenever an SR is raised by CSR, data gets inserted into this table and is removed when the status is cleared.
So there is constant insertion and purging will happen on this table.
We are using ASSM and tablespace is LOCAL.
This Table has a LONG column also.
Is this problem because of LONG column ?
So here there are 2 problems.
1) INSERTs are not using the space created by DELETE.
2) New INSERTs are taking much more space then expected ?
Let me have your suggestion
Thanks,

I think when you do DELETE it removes the data but
it's not releasing any used space and it's still
marked as used space. I think reorganizing would help
to compress and pack all block and relase any unused
space in blocks. Why do you think that? Deleting data will create space that can be reused by subsequent insert/ update operations. It is not going to release space back to the tablespace to make it available for inserts into other tables in the tablespace, but that's not generally an issue unless you are permanently decreasing the size of a table, which is pretty rare.
Would you also please explain about different about
LOB and LONG ? or point me to any link which explain
baout it.From the Oracle Concepts manual's section on the LONG data type
"Note:
Do not create tables with LONG columns. Use LOB columns (CLOB, NCLOB) instead. LONG columns are supported only for backward compatibility.
Oracle also recommends that you convert existing LONG columns to LOB columns. LOB columns are subject to far fewer restrictions than LONG columns. Further, LOB functionality is enhanced in every release, whereas LONG functionality has been static for several releases."
LONG was a very badly implemented solution to storing large amounts of data. LOBs are a much, much better designed solution-- you should always be using LOBs.

Light Table: missing images on certain page sizes

I have a light table with about 20 images from a D200 on it.
I go to print it, and all the images show up if I select Letter size paper. If I change the paper size to 13x19, one of the images doesn't show up in the preview of the light table. I thought, "ah, it's just a display/preview anomaly" so I went ahead and printed it. Guess what? That one photo really did drop out.
Even odder, if I save to PDF, 6 images drop out!
Anyone else see this? I'm on Aperture 1.0.1.

Good news. *crosses fingers*
So far I have not been able to reproduce this in Aperture 1.1.

Light Table: Image Sizes?

Is there any way to specify the exact sizes of the images placed on a Light Table?
I have a multi-frame I want to print pics for, and a Light Table is a perfect way to print multiple images per page… but I can't seem to figure out how to make, say, one image 3x3 and another one 6x4.
Make sense?
Any ideas?

The only print option in aperture that allows to exactly control the size and position of images is the Book. In the layout options for the pages you can set the dimensions of the photo boxes and align them accurately. I sometimes use the photo book design to arrange photos for printing, i.e. if if I want to have captions as well. I start with a page design, that has only one photo box and addas many additional boxes as I need.The only drawback is, that you have to pick the correct when printing - you will not want to print the covers of the book as well.

}When I decrease table size the vertical scrollbar show, but horizontal srollbar NOT show. Why?

When I decrease table size the vertical scrollbar show, but horizontal srollbar NOT show. Why? Because the table automatically resizes the width of each column.
If you don't want this behaviour then set the setAutoResizeMode(...) method to off.

Problem with Light Table in Bridge CS6

Hi! After a re-install (which didn't fix the problem with PS), I now find that, when using the light table in Bridge CS6 and after hitting the space bar, if I then click on the image, it goes to 800% size! Prior to the uninstall & re-install, it worked perfectly in taking images to 100% size.
Hope someone can help.......
Thanks, Wardie

Why did you reinstall photoshop cs6?
What operating system are you using?
Did you reinstall all the updates for photoshop cs6 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6?
After you enter the light table, use your mouse scroll wheel to zoom back to 100% and exit the light table.
The next time you go to the light table and click on the picture it should only go to 100%.

Can't save light table as pdf

Having an issue where I have about 45 images (all jpgs) on a light table, and when I click on print light table, and either 'save as pdf' or open as 'PDF in preview', aperture constantly gets stuck on processing, without ever creating the PDF.
If i highlight just one image, it will create a pdf containing one image, but if I highlight all (or none) then Aperture just sticks in the processing stage, to the point where I have to Force Quit out of aperture.
I know the PDF's it creates are typically huge, but I even let it run for an hour + last nite, and it still did not create one.
Anyone else having a similar issue?
current configuration:
iMac 2.8ghz 4GB RAM NVidia GeForce 8800GS
500GB Hard drive, files in question are stored in the aperture library.

I have a faster system (3.06 GHz) and slightly better graphics card (GeForce 9400) and it was choking on the almost 1gig pdf file that was created from a 48 image Light Table. It did create the file though even though it looked like it wouldn't. When I got it open in preview, I reduced the file size to 2 mb using the quartz filter in the Save dialogue box.

Aperture Light Table - Poor image quality

I am using the Light Table function in Aperture (3.4.5.) and I had an issue with the quality of the images on it, when zoomed in or scaled to fit.
The quality of the (larger spread) images looks poor. As if I zoomed in on a thumbnail.
I was looking for a discussion on this and saw some (archived) threads. None of them solved.
However, I think I have found a workaround.
If you get this situation, you can select the image(s) on the light table and regenerate the preview.
Option-click Menu => Photos => Generate Previews
(note: if you don't use the Option key, you will get Menu => Photos => Update Previews and Aperture may say (unjust) that the preview is already up-to-date).
That solves the poor image quality look.

I just remade the same book - as a test - in the extra large hardback format (ie. the one I used for the previous publication, last year).
This time, the pictures are fine. The images appear to be the same quality in the PDF as the originals - much, much better. The size of the file has increased massively too > up from just 2.6MB to 52.8MB.
So does the books production function work well only with the biggest, most expensive option?
I'd really appreciate some feedback from anyone who's tried the different sizes, and preferably some brilliant ideas to make them all work equally well.

Question on Light Table behavior

I am wondering if it just me and a couple of others who are seeing pixelated images in a Light Table in 3.1.1?
Situation:
With Aperture 3.1.1 set to all defaults in Preferences, I create a new light table (either empty or with pre-selected images) and then drag images to the light table.
The images are small on the table. They appear to be lower quality than the images in the filmstrip to begin with. Resizing the images exagerates the problem and reveals unclear and/or pixelation.
I have done a clean install of Aperture 3 and updated to 3.0.3 and the issue does not exist. Light Table images are fine whether resized or not.
*What I have tried so far:*
1 - Clean install of OS X 10.6 and updated with 10.6.6 combo installer (repaired disk permissions once installed), then install Aperture 3 and updated to 3.1.1 (repaired disk permissions once completed). Import new images from Nikon D80 (both RAW and JPEG) and tested light table. Same issue. Then imported new .cr2 files from a friend's Canon, which all had the same issue.
2 - Copy APTS lesson files and library to drive > open with Aperture 3.1.1 (upgrade library when prompted). The existing images in that library behave correctly in Light Table, but newly imported images into that library display the image degradation / pixelation in light table.
3 - In all cases, I have tried to delete / generate Previews as well as Thumbnails. None of these have sorted the issue.
Note - it almost appears to me that the images used on the light table are actually small thumbnails that are low quality on the light table and any subsequent resizing pixelates the image.
Note #2 - the strange thing in all cases is that using the loupe tool and panning over the images in the light table shows high-quality image.
I am trying to determine if it is my machine (or procedure) specifically, or if there are others experiencing this in large numbers.
I have 8 GB RAM and the nVidia 8800 GT upgrade card in my machine. Whether just Aperture 3.1.1 is installed or with all my normal software, no difference in Light Table behavior.
Looking for comments as to whether users have no issues like this or any who do.
I have already sent a report to Apple.
Thanks in advance for any comments.

SP,
I do not think this is intended behavior, as it works as expected in AP 3.0.3.
I sent a bug report via the feedback function in the Aperture menu and will follow up with a second one. I was hoping that other users would chime in as to whether they were experiencing the issue, or if it is working correctly on their system. Unfortunately, there has been no response other than yours as you can see.
There are two other threads since the release of 3.1.1 where 3 or 4 other users are having the same issue (at least as far as the pixelation / low resolution image issue).
On my system, the default size of the light table changed between 3.0.3 and 3.1.
In 3.0.3 the light table starts off smaller (with larger grid squares as if zoomed in) and dragging the images onto the table show the same quality image on the table as in the filmstrip. In 3.1 (and 3.1.1) the light table starts off much larger (with smaller grid squares as if zoomed out) and dragging an image from the filmstrip results in a smaller sized thumbnail showing on the light table at the lower quality.
I have also been going back through the 'Apple Pro Training Series - Aperture 3' book using the included library and lesson files (to test for functionlity with AP 3.1.1 and iPhoto '11) and I find that in lesson 3 where the light table is used, the same issue appears once you resize one of the images next to smaller images (which results in the three smaller images being lower quality than the resized image).
My guess is that the thumbnail / preview function connected with the light table sizing is creating an issue where the light table is using a smaller thumbnail when it should be switching to (or using from the beginning) a preview for quality. The fact that the image viewed under the loupe tool is high quality lends to this theory - IMHO.
I am hoping that this is fixed in 3.1.2 (if they release an update), since I would like to use the light table for layout decisions and for comparing multiple images. The bad image quality sort of shoots this function in the foot for me.
The only real fix is to revert to AP 3.0.3 and forego the 3.1.1 improvements which really isn't a fix.
To any others reading this post, could you please indicate whether the light table image quality is fine for you or whether you are experiencing the bad quality / pixelation issue I am? It would help me in discovering whether this is machine (hardware) specific or a wider issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.

*Light Table & Disappearing Images*

I created a light table, moved images in, cropped them, arranged them and printed. Everything worked as advertised except one of the images was rather stubborn about the correct crop size, had to reset a few times.
Came back the next day and all the images have the yellow triangle. A search for the images results in them not being found. They have disappeared from my drive.
I have been using Aperture since V1.1 and am continually managing referenced files.

You use the 'Aperture menu > Aperture Feedback' item to load the page.
You then select the type of feedback (in this case a 'Bug Report') from one of the drop-downs and type in your issue (I usually link to a thread when possible).
There are a number of technical drop-down lists for machine, OS, version, etc. and then submit.
Although I don't work for Apple, I know that typically; the reports are viewed by the software team and prioritized by quantity of received reports for the same and they usually try to reproduce the issue.
If they can reproduce the issue easily and consistently, it should go on the list for fixes in the next update (if possible).
Note - I agree that this may be isolated to just us, but I do not run anything modified (pretty much vanilla settings with all software) so I reported it to at least get it looked at.

Light Table - blurred images (bug)

As per this previous thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/12871298#12871298), which has now been archived, I've found that zooming all images on a Light Table (using the slider) results in larger, but completely blurred images.
The images themselves are fine in preview, and if you choose a single image on the Light Table and drag its corner to make it larger, then it scales up just fine - greater resolution as it grows.
I have submitted a bug report through the Aperture menu, and I would encourage everyone others to do the same if they're experiencing this.
G

I have already reported the bug (as per your linked thread).
Of note is that I was at the local University Village Apple store here in Seattle last weekend and confirmed this bug on the best 27" iMac (current model) they had in the store using the sample library in AP3.
That machine had the ATI graphics chip and my machine has the nVidia 8800 GT, so I at least verified it is not specific to my hardware.
Dragging images onto the light table displayed the same 'low quality' thumbnail issue I have seen since updating from AP 3.0.2 to 3.1.x.
Scaling the images up seemed to improve the image quality, but this then utilizes too much viewable area of the light table to use for real layout option work (even on the 27" screen at Apple store).
Here is the thread I posted as well in case anyone has interest in the troubleshooting I have already tried:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13298420#13298420
Thanks for bringing this up again.
Still waiting for someone to actually post that it works correctly for them at all thumbnail sizes in the Light Table function using AP 3.1.x.
I will also send another bug report and include my test at Apple store in the report.

Keynote - Light table

Hi all,
When working in the light table is there any way to "zoom" in or to increase the size of the slides that are being shown. On my external screen i have a hard time reading the text on them.
In powerpoint you can set a zoom/magnification size up to 100% (although i would have loved to be able to go higher to something like 200 or 300) Is there anything similar in keynote ?
Lasse,
MBP 2.16, Powerbook G4, iBook G4, iBook G3, lots'o'iPods(4) Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Well, there is the "Skip slide" option in the context menu, it is the same as 'hide slide'
Gancho
Then Apple should probably look at that feature (as
well as a "hide slide" option) for the next version

Light Table: zooming option?

Simple question: is it possible to zoom the slides on the Light Table in KN3? As it is now, these miniature slides are way too small to easily manipulate them.
Would appreciate something like in iViewMediaPro...or at least like in M$ Powerpoint.
iMac G5, dual processor G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

This is unfortunate b/c PowerPoint allows you to view slides on its light table at various sizes: 25%-33%-50%-66%-75%-100%. Which makes it easy to read and move slides around.
