Display issue with Combo Boxes and Logo

Hi All,
I am facing a couple of issues with my dashboard:
1. Combo boxes display - I have placed a series of combo boxes one below the other. During the preview, when I click on the first combo box, the values spread below. That is, the labels, and options of the next combo box are also visible. The options in the combo box are not seen clearly. I have tried many permutations and combinations with "Bring Forward +" and "Send Back -" but none of them seem to work. For example, keeping the first combo as bring forward and next one as send back etc. Can you please help me in this regard?
2. Logo - I have used image component and embedded a logo from my local system. Later I saved the xlf in the repository. When I import the xlf from the platform, it displays the logo fine. But however, this behavior is not constant. It sometimes doesn't show the image. Do I have to save the image also in the repository? or in a common shared folder? If I embed the logo does it not mean that the xlf hold the copy?
Any help in this regards is highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Sandeep.

Hi:
For your question
1) Do you need your combox overlapped? I tried to overlap my comb box and preview it, seems works fine for me. it only chooses the first comb box. But I am suggesting that if you want to show/hide the different combox in the same position at run time, you can try to control the visibility by some other component.
2) The answer is NO, the image embedded in the image component will be saved to xlf file, there is no need to save it individually. Try to clean your cache files in your machine and do it again.
Hope it helps.

Problem with combo boxes and the reset button in certain situations

Hi Everyone,
i have a problem to make the reset-button function properly in an what-if analysis dashboard.
The dashboard uses two combo boxes that are not visible at the same time. In my application the second combo box only appears when a dedicated menu (label based menu button) has been activated.
So i have combo box 1 when menu A is active an dand combo box 2 when menu 2 is active.
After starting the dashboard initial values are fine. If you then directly change to menu 2 (seeing combo box 2 with
the correct default value) and press the reset button, the dashboard returns to the initial view, showing
the menu 1 with the correct default value. If you now switch back to menu 2, you will see, that the combo box 2
is empty (i.e. nothing selected).
I also tracked the destination cells for the combo box value results as well as the source cells for the "selected item" and the
destination cells for the "Insert Selected Item". All this values seem to be correct. Therefore i assume that
this is an issue of event handling. Maybe the combo box 2 does not refresh its selected value because it is already
invisible when the values are restored.
This case can easily be simulated by placing two combo boxes and a push button (that changes the visibility of
the combo boxes) and the reset button on the canvas.
Maybe someone can help. I am able to provide a test xlf, if neccessary.
Thanks,
Oliver
P.S. I am using Xcelsius SP4 (Version 5.4.0.0)

Hello Debjit_Singha_86,
thank you for your support. At the moment i have the following setting:
label based menu
- General: Insertion Type "value" from a list of ID's for the menu-items to a dedicated cell (current menu ID, say tab1!$A$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) fixted to item 1
hidden combo box
- General: Insertion Type "position" to a dedicated cell with the current choice (say tab1!$B$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) to the same cell (tab1!$B$1)
Can you give me a hint on how to connect the two components according to your solution, so that the label based menu sets the default for the hidden combox box only in case, that the reset button is pressed?
Thanks,
Oliver

Aspect ratio issues with SD box and no help from Verizon

I just renewed my 2 year contract which included a free box but a billing screwup resulted in repeated charges for the box. A CS rep credited the account and said I had the wrong box and she would send out a new one.
i had a 7100 Motorola HD box. I have an older television set (that cannot control aspect ratio) and I have never had HD service but this was the box I was sent by Verizon as part of my contract. Why they felt it had to be changed I don't know, but ..... the box they sent was a 2500 SD box which does not give me an acceptable picture.
It's totally random. Some channels are 16:9. Some are overzoomed 4:3. The FIOS channel bar at the bottom is partially off the screen and the content is clipped around the edges. Commercials are totally random in size and appearance.
The # key on the remote does not work. There is no option in Settings to change the aspect ratio.
CS was ZERO help. They concluded that I had to either deal with the scattershot image sizes and clipped image content or go buy another television. SERIOUSLY VERIZON?
I couldn't get an answer as to why the box I was sent by Verizon as part of my original contract that provided a perfectly acceptable image had to be replaced with a box that doesn't provide squat. I have had Verizon service for approximately 7 years with this same television and this is the first time I've been given a box that can't produce an acceptable image and a remote that can't resize. So why now?
This smells like a bait and switch, or an attempt to get customers to pay for an upgraded box for a service they don't want just to get an acceptable picture. I live in an urban area and there is plenty of older equipment in these homes. So are customers like myself just being told even though you pay a significant amount of money for a Triple Play you are only getting 2 parts of the service?
I find it hard to believe there isn't some way to make the box or the remote change the image size. Can anyone help?

why do so many topics go to private section? we need to see how it's responded to in case we have the same problem..
but yes, our 2500 sd box, basically the 4:3 standard non HD box broadcasts to fit a 4:3 TV.. now some channels will have the black bars on top and bottom to accommodate the 16:9 aspect ratio.. you'll notice this if you run the 2500 box on a flat screen.. if you have it in 16:9 ratio on a flat screen it looks stretched.. the only way to watch regularly is in 4:3 mode.. which basically has the image with bars on all sides.. or you can zoom it and lose a portion of the image.. but it's because the box thinks you're using a 4:3 sd tv so the boxes appear on top and bottom so it can still fit the wider image it's filmed in.. so with flat screens you need the HD box i guess.. unless there is something i'm missing but there isn't a setting that i can find to change how the box exports the image for a flat screen or 4:3. I know the HD boxes have an 'SD Override' option.. which i guess tells the box you're not using a 4:3 tv anymore.. but that option is not on the 2500 SD box.. believe me i looked.. but this is all in reverse for your issue anyhow as you're having trouble with the SD box on an SD TV... which yeah, if you run SD the quality of picture is not as good as the HD programming.. so please let us know what they say to do for you.

Video display issues with Mac Pro and GeForce 7300?

I'm just wondering whether anyone else has experienced any video strangeness with their Mac Pros with GeForce 7300 cards? Basically, twice now I've had the mouse cursor stop responding and the entire screen turn black, then a second later everything's back to normal (with the cursor moving and the display back). I seem to recall a similar issue on my Windows PC with a Quadro FX 1100 card, so I'm hoping it's just a video driver issue.
Bryan

I am not sure if its the monitor, the MP, or the video card, but, I have had my computer completely replaced after reporting to my local Apple Store about my G5 fans over heating and my monitor either not being able to wake or refusing to sleep. I called AppleCare and did all the normal trouble shooting but they said take it in to store. But now that I have a brand new MP 3.0 I am getting the same issue but no fan noise. I have a 23Cinima HD (the strore said it was fine when they had both my computer and monitor in) but last night after hours of inactivity the monitor had the screen saver on but didn't got to sleep. I then put in to sleep but when I got up this morning I couldn't wake it up. When I got my new computer (3 days ago) I didn't migraite any of my old stuff. I have been slowly reinstalling all my software and updated anything before I install anything else as an added attempt to not have any bad files. I have 2 gig of ram and 500 hd with the 7300 card. I am at a lost I checked and rechecked all my setting. The only other thing I have connected is my airport extreme base.
Any idea's anyone?
Ops one last issue, I have blown my apartment circut breaker three time while attempting to start the new PM and once it did it when I was trying to wake it just by tapping the space bar. Is it the computer being more power hunger?

Display issue with old TV and more questions

Hi,
I'm trying to connect my 24" iMac to an older model TV with RCA and S-Video input. I haven't attempted to connect using S Video but i do have the adaptor for the iMac to use the Yellow RCA cable. I understand that it automatically changes the resoltion to adapt to the TV resolution but my question is this.
Does S-Video result in a clearer picture with the TV? Because right now it is virtually unusable because of the picture quality. I have tried to reduce the resolution from the iMac with no prevail. Should i pick up an S-Video cable today?
#2 - Can i turn off the monitor from the iMac without it touching the TV display?
#3 - I only have two sets of inputs on the back of this TV one for the Tivo and one for the Xbox 360. What would i need to add this additional input and change it remotely?
Any help with these is greatly appreciated!

Hi D to the M
You will do better turning Mirroring Off and select the proper resolution for each, when your running that setup in Mirror mode the resolutions are not matched and it goofs up the iMacs resolution. This will also be true using an S-Video cable, but the overall picture quality should be slightly better. Note that the TV will probably not make a good display for working windows, but will be decent for watching movies, video clips, viewing slideshows and photos.
My same TV setup has been connected up for over 2 years, and I just switch the TV off or select another input source.

Display issue with check boxes

Hi,
Does anyone know why checkboxes look like they are stroked with different weights when you are zoomed out, or even at 100%? Why does this happen? when I zoom in, all is fine, it's only when I'm viewing the whole page. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
Thanks,
Stan

Not sure, but my guess it is simply a matter of the line weight you used (pixels or points) for the box border. When you zoom out, the program is attempting to place the information you have on a 96dpi (typical) screen. Thus the translation from your resolution to the screen resolution may vary with the location on the screen and how a line falls compared to the pixels representing it.

Entity Descriptions are not displayed correctly in Combo box dropdown list

In Web Analysis, Entity Descriptions are not displayed correctly in Combo box dropdown list when entity descriptions from HFM contains a dot(.)
Example:
'Entity A. LTD' becomes 'LTD'
'Entity B Inc.' becomes blank
It seems that everything before the dot is not displayed when opening the combobox.
It looks like it is acting like the option to show short description for entities in HR where the parent-child relation is not shown. This behaviour I don't expect for descriptions. And in my opinion is not an option in Web Analysis.
Does anybody knows the sollution or have seen this issue before?

Hi,
This is a known issue with combo box list of values.
Please follow this workaround:
- Remove ComboboxLOV on Deptno
- Create an updateable transient attribute(Say Dname) of type String
- Define combobox lov with following values:
List Data Source: DeptView1
List Attribute: Dname
List Return Values:
Dname - Dname
Deptno - Deptno
UI Hints: Display Attribute - Dname
- Edit Dname(transient attribute) and provide following groovy expression
oracle.jbo.Key key = new oracle.jbo.Key(Deptno);
return DeptView1.findByKey(key, 1)[0].getAttribute("Dname");- Now, you are done and observe that Dname combo box lov shows Description even on selection and change in this combo box sets the Deptno value

HOWTO Get the text of "combo box" and "labe" controls with JavaAccessBridge

HOWTO Get the text of "combo box" and "labe" controls with JavaAccessBridge.
Please help,
I'm trying to use the Java Access Bridge (JAB) 2.1 to get the text in Java Applet controls. I've been able to use the sample code in AccessInfo.cpp sample that comes with JAB to get text from "text" controls in a Java Applet. To clarify, I am referring to the "role" in the AccessibleContextInfo struct being set to "text" or "combo box" or "label".
The problem is, when I use the AccessInfo.cpp sample to get text from a "combo box", the accessibleText data member comes back as FALSE, and thus any of the JAB text functions like GetAccessibleTextInfo fail to get any text information from "combo box" or "label" controls.
I've also tried GetCurrentAccessibleValueFromContext on the "combo box" and "label" controls, but the text returned is empty.
Can anyone help?

I have new information in regards to this issue. A contact from Sun did get to me in email and relayed that that "label" objects store their text in the "name" data member of the AccessibleContext structure. This was a big help.
But I'm still stuck trying to get information from "combo box" and other controls, like "push button". The contact said, the Java Access Bridge does not provide all the information because it is already implemented by other interfaces like AccessibleComponent, AccessibleAction, or AccessibleSelection. The contact did not allude to whether these opther interfaces can be used along side the Java Access Bridge or not. So, I'm left a step closer to the goal, but still stuck without the full solution.
Can one take the Java Access Bridge functions, like say those used in the Ferret sample, and close the gap to get text back from "combo box", "push button", and other controls by using some other API in conjunction?

Does anyone else have display issues with Intel X3100 graphics and OS X Lion?

I took the screenshot below to demonstrate one issue I have had with graphics since upgrading to OS X Lion. I use a Late 2007 MacBook with 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo and the Intel X3100 graphics chipset. I have 4GB RAM. Had to reboot to get this to correct itself. The problem is the menubar (obvious) and the desktop image is missing, replaced by the grey.
I have an external monitor connected (second image) and everything displays properly there.
Some other issues I've noticed are using Mission Control sometimes yields unpredictable results, graphically speaking, and the fullscreen apps don't always allow me to see the menubar. These all seem graphically related. Is this a hardware or software problem? Any solutions?

Here is another display issue with my machine...perhaps software rather than hardware? The icon for the rtf file "Matt Passages" is missing entirely. There is a faint rectangle present instead. The same file has an icon in the first image posted above. No change to the file since then. And two other RTFs have the icon! Odd things with Lion.

Embedded Fonts a Combo Box and complete madness

I have a combo box that has an array of fonts loaded into
them, not here is my problem. For some reason, when i select the
fonts in the array, some of them change and some of them dont. I
have created font symbols like instructed in the live docs, but i
dont get why they arent showing up..
i.e. I have 7 fonts loaded into this combo box and i can
select Arial Bold and my text field will show the text in arial
bold, but when i select hobo, i get some substitute!
here's my code, maybe you guys will see something i
haven't.. the fonts in particular i am having trouble with: Bookman
Old Style, BrushScript and Hobo.

there are many points/issues here. here are some:
1. Your array called fonts contains eight strings such as
'new Arial()', whereas i think what you were trying to achieve here
is to create references to the fonts in the library. to do this
remove the quotation marks.
2. To be able to create references to the fonts in the
library, ensure that the font symbols in the library contain class
names, with base classes of flash.text.Font. do this by selecting
'Linkage' on your library fonts.
3. Ensure that your text field is set to embed fonts - either
in authoring, or with actionscript
eg.outputTB1.embedFonts=true;
4. you set up fonts_array with eight font names and then in
your for loop, you again add eight fonts to this array. this is
redundant.
5. in the for loop you have the line: fonts_array.push(new
String(fonts[ i]));
this appears to be an attempt at converting a reference to a
font into a font name. this isn't going to work. if you had set up
references to fonts to begin with (see point 1), and this line
wasn't redundant (see point 4), you would extract the font name
like so: fonts_array.push(fonts[ i].fontName)
6. maintaining two arrays of fonts is unecessary. i would
recommend just maintain your fonts array with references to fonts,
and extract font names from these references. this would look
something like the code attached below.
7. One last thing - i notice that you have at least two of
your fonts - arial and arial bold, probably have different
formatting. if some are bold and some are not, you will need to
specify the bold property also. eg. font.bold=true

Help with combo boxes

I am currently building a site with flash / dreamweaver and
am attempting to add two or three combo boxe that will display data
and pictures from a database. Any ideas or assistance would be much
appreciated...
Many thanks in advance

Sunil,
I'm attempting to use the data binding technique but I'm perhaps not understanding exactly where this should go. For now I'm fine with having a static array that just lives locally on the page. Each of my combo boxes are being populated using the
mx:Array --> mx:Object logic.
I need to fire off an event to a function that is able to determine which selection(s) from the combination of the two combo boxes were chooses. I'm accomplishing that by using selectedIndex property of the combo boxes id. I then have 'n' number of unique Array Collections that are basically a three dimensional array containing the numeric percentage that I need to display graphically. I need my function to be able to choose the appropriate Collection based on the combination of selected index(es) and then update my column chart accordingly.
My other confusion is how to do use my data binding at the chart level. So my page is really nothing more than two combo boxes and chart that I need to change dynamically as the selections in the combo boxes changes. Eventually I will use a webservice to connect to a .jsp page that is using DAO to retrieve the values from the database but right now I'm fine with fetching them locally just so I'll know I'm on the right track.
If it would help I can include the snippet of the code that I'm working on.
Thanks for your help

Help with Combo box

I am having problems with displaying items on a combo box.
The combo box will allow a user to select a fixed list of values for a database column.
I created the combo box and set the dataItemUsageMode property in the property inspector to "USE FOR UPDATE". The list is bound to the corresponding column of the query RowSetInfo.
In the code, I hard coded the items to be displayed using comboboxName.addItem(). When I run the form, the list of hard coded values shows up. However, when I select an item, the selected item is not displayed on the screen.
Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
null

I had a problem like this when I inserted a new row into the given Rowset.
Try setting initial value for the attribute that you are using for update.
eg. if you have this:
comboBoxControl1.setDataItemNameForUpdate("infobus:/oracle/sessionInfo1/rowSetInfo1/Status");
comboBoxControl1.addItem(new String("Silver"));
comboBoxControl1.addItem(new String("Gold"));
comboBoxControl1.addItem(new String("Platinum"));
set the attribute as follows:
StatusrowSetInfo1.getImmediateAccess().setValue(new String("Silver"));
or any other way you can set that attribute.

I need help. When i open combo box and click window redrawing (flickering)

hi,
I am developing HTML desktop app using adobe AIR.
Thought i can use it like browser page. Its not able to handle all jquery ,bootstrap etc.
So removed all . just created a simple form with static combo box with many values.
When i opened combo box and selected value whole screen redrawing( you can see it flicker). Annoying as hell.
When i click button or type in input field its not happening.
Anyone have clue?. I tried this same page in TideSDK ( its not flickering there).
But i am gona go with AIR because of update feature but i need to get rid of flickering issue before i go any further.
Anyone here done HTML form in adobe air?
Please help. I am having headache all day on this issue.
Advanced Thanks .

I meant flickering means...when i open combobox and click focus is going out of air window as though combobox is in some another window. once click press mouse down...focus is in combo box but window loses focus and once releases mouse ..window back to focus. Kinda annoying effect when u try to click on combo box and select.
Tested with html scout sample app and load any webpage with combobox , window loses focus.
But any combobox made using EXT it do not flicker because ext handles focus event correctly.
My windows has set of combo box and user always select different value from combo box if keep losing focus and coming back its annoying as hell.
