Display boilerplate text even when no record to display

How would i display boilerplate text (prompt) in my repeating frame even when related query brings back 0 (zero) records ?
Thanks,
Greg B.

You can't display a value in a repeating frame if the repeating frame doesn't print.
However, you can place the same boilerplate underneath the repeating frame so that if the repeating frame doesn't print, the boilerplate underneath will still print. Make the repeating frame opaque so that the boilerplate underneath it doesn't show through if there are any records returned.
Another alternative is to have 2 frames. The first M_R_1 to surround the repeating frame and another frame M_2 to print your boilerplate (and anything else) if the repeating frame returns no records. Place M_2 after M_R_1 and make sure they are both variable sized. Place a format trigger against M_2 so that if a row is retrieved for the repeating frame, it shouldn't print. When no records are retrieved, M_2 will move up into the space vacated by M_R_1.

    graphics convert but not text even when ocr is disabled

    Hmmm... I seem to have found the plist file that is doing it. I was looking at /Library/Application\ Support/Apple/Remote\ Desktop/ before... looks like /Library/Preferences/com.apple.ARDAgent.plist is the culprit.
    This plist is a binary, so I had to use plutil to convert to xml in order to make it human readable. I wonder if I can just hack this file up a bit and re-deploy it to each machine. Or I wonder if it would re-build if I simply remove it from each client. I will need to test to find out, seeing as though the task servers are listed in it, probably not a good idea to remove it all the way.

  • Hi, since doing the latest update my phone makes a strange noise everytime i send or recieve a text even when there is no text tone set?

    Hi Thisslowgt,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone making unexpected sound signals, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • Stroke showing on text, even when disabled?

    This is very odd.
    I have done this a thousand times, and not had a problem. Basically I tried putting a gradient into text, and nothing happened. I tried it on a shape, and it worked fine. So I went to the appearances panel and added a new fill for the text. It worked, but even with the stroke disabled, there is still a weird glitchy outline around the text???
    I tried exporting the file as  PDF to check if this is just showing up in program...but it shows up in the outputted PDF too!!!
    Anyone have any idea what is going on??? Please see the screenshot attached. Thanks for your help. PS you will need to click the image to enlarge it to see what's going on. 

    Thanks both of you. This worked.
    However, now whenever I add a gradient to text I have to always do it by going to the appearance panel and adding a new fill there to get the gradient to show up at all. Simply selecting the gradient button with the text selected, or selecting a preset gradient from swatches now does nothing, the text remains black.
    I then, as you suggested, have to double click 'characters' and remove the solid colour fill.
    Kindof odd?
    Thanks again for your help though

  • Why is Apple Mail sending in plain text even when rich text is set as preference?

    I have Verdana selected as my Message Font and the Composing Message Format preference set as Rich Text, yet Apple Mail sends new messages in plain text (Monaco). When I type the message it shows in Verdana. When I check it in Sent Mail, it is in Monaco. When I choose Send Again, the new massage appears in Verdana again, but after sending it is in Monaco. Also, The received message in in Monaco. I've tested this with other fonts and font sizes and the same thing happens.
    How do I fix this?
    Note: Mail correctly replies in the same format as received messages. Only new mail has the plain text problem.

    I suspect that for each one you need to go to Format > Make Plain Text

  • Add text to display when no records display

    In 'Building Reports' 21.6 which is 'Add text to display when no records display' a solution is given which involves putting boilerplate text underneath the group frame at the same level as the repeating group so that if there aren't any records retrieved the boilderplate text will be visible. My question is - is there an alternative method for achieving the same thing? i.e display the boilderplate text 'None.' if no records are returned. I have a report with a large number of frames & find the solution proposed messy & difficult to implement.
    TIA
    Simon

    The only thing you can do is make sure there is something to print. You could bas your report on a temp table which you populate with your select statement which you normally use in your report. Then after the table is populated you add the missing records in the temp table. Your report will be based upon the temp table.
    You can start this process in the after parameter form trigger by calling a PL/SQL procedure which will perform the business logic explained above.

  • Bex Query - Display Rows, even when no database record exists?

    Hi everybody,
    im creating a Query with Bex Query designer and have a requirement which i cant cope with atm, so i hope you can help me.
    I made a small screenshot with excel to explain how the query should be:
    [http://yfrog.com/ncqueryj]
    So, the requirement now is, even when for example there are no records for company A at all, the rows A-A1 to A-A4 should still be displayed in the query simply with no values.
    The Accounts are already in an row structure, but it isnt an option to take the company into the row structure, as this would mean we have to do several thousands selections for one query and there is more then one query to do, with each time different accounts, so the row structure wouldnt be reusable too.
    Do you know any way to achieve this without adding the company to the row structure?
    I hope my explanation was comprehensible, if you still have any question just ask.
    Thanks in advance
    Noody

    Hi Harry,
    thanks for the answer, it was already very helpful, but my problem still isnt completely solved because actually they dont want to get all companies that exists, but only certain companies which then should always be displayed, even without records.
    So for example they have company A, B, C and D, they always want to have A, B and C, even without values, but never D, even when D has values.
    The companies they want to see in the Query are in an Hierarchy which is selected through filter, so actually they dont want all existing companies from master data but all existing companies from an hierarchy.
    Regards

  • Text jumping in browser, even when duplicating 2 pages in iWeb

    My pages within one website(made in iWeb) are when viewing in a browser, constantly shuffling up or down. Even when i duplicate a page, and only change the text, but not the textbox. Something to do with reproduction in HTML?
    Any help much appreciated!, would like to show all my pages in the same "lay-out", without jumping text (on the bottom of the pages)
    G4/450MP 768/120Gb+30Gb   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   Cable modem + AirPort Express

    Crumster,
    Is your Made in iWeb badge in your Footer or in the Body Content of the page? Also, it looks as if you are trying to maintain a constant height webpage across your site (in addition to width), right?
    I think it might be worth examining the Page Size settings for your pages in the Inspector Page tab. Especially on pages that have some empty space at the bottom, like yours, you might be experiencing some variability of display between the Body Content area of your page and the Footer area of the page. It helps to turn on "Show Layout" under the "View" menu in iWeb to visualize the interplay between Body and Footer. I think to decrease the most variability, you can adjust the Footer value to ZERO and then align your badge and other "footer-type" text in relation to the border of your Content Height setting. Try this and see if it helps.

  • Keep fixed resolution even when display not attached

    Is there any way to lock the display resolution on a Mac, even when there is no display attached? Or to change the set of display resolutions that are available when no display is attached?
    I connect a Mac to my A/V system via DVI -> HDMI. As long as the unit the Mac is connected to is turned on, the Mac gets reasonable EDID info and allows me to set it to 1920x1080, as desired. But after turning the A/V system off overnight, the Mac invariably reverts to some lower resolution, which wreaks havoc with window sizes and positions. I just want the Mac to stay at 1920x1080.
    I tried SwitchResX, which lets you add available resolutions and disable resolutions, but only when the display is attached, so it accomplishes nothing when the display is disconnected. I've confirmed the inability of SwitchResX to address the problem with its author.
    I purchased a Gefen DVI Detective Plus that theoretically learns the EDID information of a display, keeps that information available to the Mac at all times, and passes the video through it. This would be perfect, except A) it doesn't work correctly in the learning mode (I never did get an image up that way), and B) using a built-in EDID configuration it doesn't cleanly pass the video (it works sometimes, for a little while, but then sparklies start to appear and before long the HDMI connection is lost). Useless.
    I found information on the web about various .plist files, and I've edited most or all of them, all to no avail. I think I could give myself additional resolutions, while a display is connected, but, again, it's the behavior when there effectively is no display that is causing me problems.
    Unless someone here knows a way to lock the display resolution or to edit the set of resolutions available when a display is missing I fear I'll be moving and resizing windows for the rest of my days.
    (Note: This machine happens to still be on Tiger, but I'd be happy to upgrade it to Leopard if that would afford a solution.)

    Are you saying you already got it fixed but the problem is reaccuring??
    I am part of the unlucky ones who didnt't have applecare or the extended warranty. My iMac broke down 8 months ago. I no longer have any display. The strange thing was I left it at home because I went to uni, so there was a period of at least 10 months where it was not used. But still it failed within a few weeks of me getting back home. I was sucked in by their adverts making me believe they were a superior computer to any windows based. How wrong was I. It has now left me with a very bitter taste.
    Any of you guys know if it still will work if I connect an external monitor?

  • Dax Calculate column even when there is no record at a date

    We are creating a powerpivot model based on a table with data about worktasks of our employees.
    This is simplified our input:
    Tasknr date started dateended
    1 20140101 20140201 (yyyymmdd)
    2 20140102 20140103
    3 20140104 20140108
    Etc
    We created two measures to calculate how many tasks are opened and closed per day. That was no problem, but now the tricky part. We also want to know each day how many tasks are
    still open, even on days that no tasks are opened (or closed).
    My approach was to create a calculated column to determine how many tasks are opened up to that date and subtracted the closed tasks and end up with the tasks that are open. That
    seems to be working :
    =COUNTROWS(FILTER(Tasks; Tasks[Open]<=EARLIER(Tasks[Open]))) - COUNTROWS(FILTER(Tasks; Tasks[Close]<=EARLIER(Tasks[Open])))
    When I load this to the excel pivot I end up with this:
    Row Labels| Opened | Closed | Open not finished
    1/1/2014
            1         
    0          1
    1/2/2014        
    1          0         
    2
    1/3/2014
            0         
    1         0
    1/4/2014
            1         
    0         2
    The line with 1/3/2014 should have 1 in the column [opened not finished], but because that calculation is linked to the opendate column, not to the closed and 3/1/2014 no task
    was opened, there is no value. On days that no tasks are opened or closed there even is no line at all although there could be tasks that are still open.
    I need a mechanism that calculates the value even when there are no records
    on a particular day. Our users want to be able to view the results on any date they select.
    I have considered a second table with all the dates and calculate columns from the task-table but are there other ways to do this? I searched this forum but did not find an answer
    so far.

    Hi Jacob,
    In our company we have a standard date table that is included in all of our models. What I didn't want to do in this case was to extend that table with calculated fields to solve this issue. Alternative was to create a new date table with the calculated
    fields I needed. But I don't like that also so what I did was rewrite the sql that loaded the data into the pivot so that the measures were calculated at the load. But I am also not happy with that solution because of maintanance and performance reasons. My
    feeling is that there must be a way to solve this with only dax in the loaded table.
    Jacob's answer does exactly what you want. The DAX expression in his response is a measure which you could put in your Tasks table. You don't need to alter your date dimension in any way.
    The key to this technique is that the date table cannot have an active relationship to your Tasks table. (although you could have an inactive relationship and then you could use the USERELATIONSHIP function to make other measures easier to calculate)
    Translating Jocob's measure into something against a 'Tasks' table would looks like the following:
    =
    CALCULATE (
    COUNTROWS ( Tasks ),
    FILTER (
    Tasks,
    Tasks[Open] <= MAX ( Calendar[Date] )
    && Tasks[Closed] >= MAX ( Calendar[Date] )

  • My program always displays the same image, even when I change th image file

    I'm making a program that chooses an image file from a dialog, resize it and copy it into a folder. When the image is needed to be displayed, the image file is read and a JLabel displays it on screen.
    When I upload the first image, everything works fine. The problem appears when I upload another picture: the displayed image is still the first image, even when the old file doesn't exist anymore (because it has been overwritten). It looks like the image has been "cached", and no more image are loaded after the first one.
    This function takes the image picture chosen by the user, resizes it, and copy it into the pictures folder:
        private void changeProfilePicture() {
            JFileChooser jFileChooser = new JFileChooser();
            jFileChooser.setMultiSelectionEnabled(false);
            jFileChooser.setFileFilter(new ImageFileFilter());
            int result = jFileChooser.showOpenDialog(sdbFrame);
            if (JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION == result) {
                try {
                    //upload picture
                    File file = jFileChooser.getSelectedFile();
                    InputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
                    //resize image and save
                    BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(is);
                    BufferedImage resizedImage = resizeImage(image, 96, 96);
                    String newFileName = sdbDisplayPanel.getId() + ".png";
                    String picFolderLocation = db.getDatabaseLocation() + "/" +
                            PROFILE_PICTURE_FOLDER;
                    java.io.File dbPicFolder = new File(picFolderLocation);
                    if(!dbPicFolder.exists())  {
                        dbPicFolder.mkdir();
                    String newFilePath = picFolderLocation + "/" + newFileName;
                    File newFile = new File(newFilePath);
                    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (newFilePath);
                    DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream (fos);
                    ImageIO.write(resizedImage, "png", dos);
                    dos.close();
                    fos.close();
                    //set picture
                    sdbDisplayPanel.setImagePath(newFilePath);
                } catch (IOException ex) {
                    System.err.println("Could'nt print picture");
                }This other class actually displays the image file in a JLabel:
        public void setImagePath(String imagePath) {
            count++;
            speaker.setImagePath(imagePath);
            this.imagePath = imagePath;
            if(imagePath != null)   {
                //use uploaded picture
                try {
                    File tempFile = new File(imagePath);
                    System.out.println(tempFile.length());
                    java.net.URL imgURL = tempFile.toURI().toURL();
                    ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(imgURL);
                    pictureLbl.setIcon(icon);
                    // Read from a file
                } catch (IOException ex) {
                    Logger.getLogger(SDBEventClass.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
            else    {
                //use default picture
                URL imgURL = this.getClass().getResource("/edu/usal/dia/adilo/images/noProfile.jpg");
                ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(imgURL, "Profile picture");
                pictureLbl.setIcon(icon);
        }

    When you flush() the image, you don't need to construct a new ImageIcon each time, a simple repaint() will suffice.
    Run this example after changing the URL to an image you can edit and update while the program is running.import java.awt.BorderLayout;
    import java.awt.Image;
    import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
    import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
    import java.net.MalformedURLException;
    import java.net.URL;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class FlushImage {
       Image image;
       JLabel label;
       public static void main(String[] args) {
          SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
             @Override
             public void run() {
                new FlushImage().makeUI();
       public void makeUI() {
          try {
             ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(new URL("file:///e:/java/dot.png"));
             image = icon.getImage();
             label = new JLabel(icon);
             JButton button = new JButton("Click");
             button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                   image.flush();
                   label.repaint();
             JFrame frame = new JFrame("");
             frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
             frame.add(label, BorderLayout.NORTH);
             frame.add(button, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
             frame.pack();
             frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
             frame.setVisible(true);
          } catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
