Display reflection

I'm starting some newbie efforts with iMovie HD 6 using my iMac G5 20" with iSight camera.
Problem: The display is reflected in my eyeglasses. Any suggestions to avoid this? Is it possible to darken the display while making a short iSight video?
(Walt Mossberg has this trouble, but I'm trying to do better.)
Thanks very much!
Jim

Hello Jim,
You can adjust your display brightness with the keyboard shortcut keys or via the slider in the "Displays" Tab of your Mac's System Preferences... > Displays menu. If that does not help, here are some other things you can try alone or in combination to see whether any improve your recordings.
• Tilt or swivel the display slightly to see if the glare is reduced.
• Tilt or move your head slightly instead of or in addition to moving the display.
• Change the color of the desktop to "Solid Dark Gray." That color is available in the "Solid Colors" folder that is selectable in the "Desktop" Tab of your Mac's System Preferences... > Desktop & Screen Saver menu.
• Add more light to your room and also to your subject. Additional light may reduce the contrasting shadows that may be contributing to your reflected glare.
• Cover all or part of your display screen with some opaque material such as cardboard or heavy cloth.
Some combination of these is sure to significantly reduce if not eliminate your problem.

How to get PNP Org Structure to reflect the org structure as of key date?

I created a custom program using the PNP logical database. I defined a custom report category indicating the selection period = employee selection period and allowing org.structure. Im also using the standard SAP PNP_DEFAULT selection view.
Inside my ABAP I initialize the pnpbegda and pnpbegps to reflect 20060930. Upon Execution the key date reflects 09/30/2006. I click on the org.structure button. The org.structure displayed reflects the one as of today rather than as of Sept-30.
During run debug I see that the RP_PNP_ORGSTRUCTURE program, LRPPNU11, calls function 'RH_TYPE_STRUC_HELP' to get the org.structure. The call to this function passes 09/30/2006 for the begda and endda, but it still returns the latest org.structure. I did some playing with this function and found that if I also pass the ACT_SEARCH_WEGID as ORGEH it works.
Any idea on how I can get the LRPPNU11 program to pass the ACT_SEARCH_WEGID or the subsequent called functions to process for ORGEH?

thanks. but maybe I don't describe my problem well.
I use javascript to get some information such as position, sytle of each elements and then pass these to javafx. So the besides the dom tree, I can get more information about elements.
I need to pass them back to javafx.
if node support setUserData, I can associate them to each Node/Element. But webkit don't support this feature.
BTW, If javascript pass a object to javafx. it can only deal with primary types such as string, numeric. But I need pass back a complicated javascript object like:
{name:"parent", children:[{name:"child1"},{name:"child2"}]
I can use (String)JSObject.getMember("name"); and JSObject children=JSObject.getMember("children");
but I can't cast children to Object[] or JSObject[].
so I have to use some tricky to convert Javascript Object to json string and then in javafx convert it back to Object tree.

MBP's Retina display & Thunderbolt display?

I plan to upgrade from my MacBook to a MacBook pro and a Thunderbolt Display, need the large screen display and the portability. Will the Thunderbolt display reflect the quality of the MBP’s Retina display?

I have that exact setup with a new MBP Retina and a Thunderbolt 27" Display. I love the setup. But, no, the Thunderbolt is not a Retina display. However, the size of the screen makes up for it with me. I'm sure that Apple will produce a Thunderbolt Retina display within the next year. Probably kinda pricey since the TD is already $1,000, thereabouts.
One thing I did have go wrong on the display was the "All-in-One" display cable which is a permanent cable mounted to the display (i.e. not replaceable by user) and which has two cable connector that connect to your computer (one for computer power and one for a Thunderbolt computer port). Either the cable or some electronics in the TD leading to the cable failed. My symptom was that video was just fine (fooling you to think all is well), but I lost external control to anything plugged into the ports on the display (USB, Ethernet, Firewire, etc). It was as if the hub inside the display wasn't being powered up or something, and it also did not show up on the System Information under USB. The work around was to unplug the Display Thunderbolt cable from the Computer and bypass it with a regular Thunderbolt cable between the computer and the empty display Thunderbolt port.
I love the setup now that my display works fine. One recommendation is to be sure and have an extra Thunderbolt cable on hand.

Barry

Alternative Performance Visualizations in SAP Strategy Management

A question frequently posed to the SAP Strategy Management solution management team is u201Cu2026beyond scorecards and strategy maps, are there other ways within SSM that I can visualize my organizationu2019s performance?u201D The answer is yes.
The SSM Strategy page allows you to create and display up to three goal diagrams. Typically SSM users will just create a strategy diagram (the most common type of goal diagram) and let the other two goal diagram place holders go unused. However, with a little ingenuity the other two goal diagrams could be put to very good use.
Using the goal diagram manager on the SSM Administration console you can import custom images (e.g. Adobe Illustrator or MS Visio images) into the SSM Strategy page. Once a custom image has been imported, hotspots can be mapped on top of the image that allow you to view the status and details of scorecard objects in relation to the image. Hotspots can be created for Contexts, Perspectives, Objectives, and KPIs (KPI hotspots are new in SSM 7.0). For each hotspot location a status indicator is displayed reflecting the Red/Yellow/Green status of the scorecard object. When the hotspot is clicked, details for the scorecard object are displayed in a dropdown box.
So if, for example, you have created contexts for different geographic regions within the United States, you could import a map of the United States and then map context hotspots that allow you to easily view your organizationu2019s performance across geographic regions. So, on your US Map goal diagram you might see a green status icon over California, red over Boston, Yellow over Florida, etc. indicating your organizationu2019s performance in those regions.
Other custom goal diagram examples include:
- Organization charts that show the performance of different divisions / groups within your organization
- Process flow diagrams that show performance of different elements of a business or production process
- Initiative / project summaries that show the performance of multiple initiatives
For more information on how to manage custom diagrams in SSM, view the Help topic u201CGoal Diagramsu201D within the SSM Administration console.

How can I Request a new App. that hasn't been made yet?

I'm in a car club with many car enthusiasts that use there iPads, iPhones, and iPods on their cars. This is done by using a car programmer that can link with Apple devices by Bluetooth. These programmers are designed to unlock your vehicles hidden performance potential by wirelessly re-calibrating your vehicle's computer for maximum horsepower and torque, increased throttle response, firmer shifts and even increased fuel mileage. They are the first and only made for iPod, iPhone or iPad vehicle tuner and OBDII monitoring product on the market. The programmers include a wireless interface that plugs directly into your vehicles OBDII diagnostic connector and communicates with your Apple device via a secure Bluetooth wireless connection. By optimizing your vehicle's fuel and spark curves, they will make your vehicle run more efficiently, increasing MPG, and performance you can feel in the driver seat! Features include: On screen virtual gauges with adjustable warning/alert lights., Monitor vehicle engine data/parameters via virtual gauges., User selectable gauge themes and gauge layouts., Monitor multiple engine parameters in real time., Diagnose your vehicle's DTC codes ., 0-60 MPH test., 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile test., Top speed test., Braking test.
These car enthusiasts have very rear cars, expensive cars, or both and don't want to mount or hold the Apple devices while driving at high speeds but at the same want to see the information on the Apple devices. Most of these enthusiasts and I set the devices on the dashes of our cars. This is when I noticed the reflection on the windshield. There are car brand that offer an option that has been know as H.U.D. ( Heads Up Display ).
I was wondering if there is or if it was possible to make an App. that could mirror the display on the Apple devices? So when the display reflects off the windshield it will not be backwards. This will be a much safer way for the driver to be more aware of every thing going on around him/her while driving. This will optimize the drivers alertness and minimize the times the drive would look away from the road to see his/her gauges.
Products used together:
Mac mini
iPad 3
iPhone 4s
SCT Performance iTSX Wireless Tuner
2007 Ford Mustang GT 800hp+ ( With twin turbo and many more up grades)

If you find a somewhat similar app, go to the developer's web page and send your request.

Report painter -output parameters,Data source,Extract parameter, report

Hi expert,
1)What report painter -output parameters,Data source,Extract parameter, report mean for and what are the difference?
2)I have create new report painter and transport to Test server using T-code:GCTR and I find that the T-code always point to old report. As I had check the SE93 the D_SREPOVARI-REPORT is point to report group.Why this happen?
3) Does creation of new report or modification of the report always need to select the extraction option so that it will able to display the relected changes? Because, I have done modification on the report but it is not reflected the changes even i save until i have to create the extraction is able to display the report but every time i run the report need to select the extraction with option to choose new extract or old. Kindly advice how to save and create the report painter and save will display reflected result .
Please help

Hi BR Christian,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
I have few querys as below:
1)Do we every time create new report by copying the existing report painter need to select output parameter, data source and extract parameter in order to be able to display the new report?
2)when modify existing report painter and save it do we need to select output parameter, data source and extract parameter in order to be able to display the modify report correctly?
3) What are the different between right click copy the report inreport painter compare with create report painter with copy GRR1?
4) What are the T-code for modify the report group?
5) When I create a new report with the right click copy in GRR1 and modify the report painter column only and everything remain the same just the report name different why when execute the report it always appear in the selection screen with report button which have option button to select the 2 version of report which one is the destination report that I copy from and one is the new report? How to set the report when execute will only display the new report only without need to select the option with just new report only?
6)For transferring reports you can use GR37 (export) and GR38 (import) can be use to transport from one client to another client? What is difference between GR37 compare with GCTR?
7) If I use GR37 and GR38 it is mean no need to create the transport request which as usual we create transport se10?
we can directly import to another client ussing GR38?
8)When we create a new report with copy with the existing report with just modify the report colunm and the report name difference only what are the setting example: report,report group need to be selected to be include to export/transport to another client?
9) What are the difference between library and report group?
10) Can we set Se93 to execute only report not report group? How?
11) when using GR37 to transport it is also include the report group,library and the particular report?
12) Can I include the variable in the column header to display fiscal year which I have selected from the selection screen?
How and which variable should i use?
please help.
many thanks

Bug with Reverb/Full Reverb Effects

I just got AA3 a few weeks ago, and have immediately noticed a few problems, the most serious being an issue that occurs when running the "Reverb" or "Full Reverb" effects.
Specs: AA3 plus 3.01 patch
CPU: Intel Centrino 1.6 GHz
RAM: 1 GB
Windows XP Pro SP3
Problem: When I am running multiple effects in the multi-track view and one of them is either "Reverb" or "Full Reverb," then the all effects execute their functions approx. 25 seconds earlier than it is supposed to.
Ex: I am currently mastering a .wav file, approximately 3 minutes long in the mutli-track view. In the effects rack I am running "Multiband Compression," "Tube-modeled Compression" and "Full Reverb." When I start playback on the file, the Multiband Compression interface display reflects what's going on in the file 25 seconds later in the track. IE 25 seconds before the track finishes, the compressor stops compressing, and the spectral display within the interface drops to -80 dB (because it thinks the song is over and is not recieving any signal to process).
Furthermore, this seems to affect automation as well (but only for effects---as far as I can tell it does not effect volume or pan automation). When I automate Full Reverb to run from say WET=0% at minute 1:00 to WET=100% at minute 2:00, I can both hear the reverb begin to engage and watch the WET slider in the Full Reverb interface begin moving at approximately minute 0:35 instead of minute 1:00. I have found this glitch to happen only whenever I am using the "Reverb" or "Full Reverb" effect. It seems to affect all tracks, regardless of which track the Reverb effect is applied to--IE If I am using Full Reverb on Track 2, Track 8 effects still execute too early.
This is particularly troubling when it comes to compressors, because it implies that it is performing compression calculated for time=1:00 at time=0:35 instead. So, if the compressor is supposed to take off 3 dB at t=1:00, it is actually taking it off at t=0:35.
What's going on here? Has anyone else experience or noticed this problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

My advice is to not use Reverb or Full Reverb in any Multi Track session. In fact, there is a warning box that comes up when you put Reverb or Full Reverb in an FX rack in Multi Track. The warning box tells you that these effects are CPU-intensive and not at all appropriate for use in Multi Track.
So, you can either switch to Studio Reverb (and that reverb was put in specifically because it is less CPU-intensive than the others) or get one of the hundreds of reverb plug-ins out there (and many of them are free). There used to be a good list of free plug-ins on this forum. I don't know if it is still there, but I do know that there is a list at http://www.audiomastersforum.net that recommends many good freeware reverb plug-ins.

Updating flash from a dynamically changing XML file

Creating a non-interactive status display: I want to have the
flash display reflect data in a server-based XML-file. So far this
is easy. But I want the display to change everytime the XML file
changes-- in order to reflect status changes. I've used an
XMLConnector and specified it and the trigger in the first frame.
The Flash code catches and shows the XML values initially . But
when I edit the XML file, the new values are never picked up by
Flash- its almost as though the values are cached. How do I get
Flash to regularly be updated from a changing XML file? I've also
tried putting the trigger in a loop- but that doesn't work
either.

I DID find a solution with setInterval, but there is still a
problem of a diffeent sort.
When using XMLConnector, it appears that
XMLConnector.trigger() is the thing that goes out and gets new data
from the server. so:
function checkForData():Void {
myXML.trigger();
<<handle new values of bound data>>
var intervalID:Number = setInterval(checkForData, 10000);
works very well by executing the trigger every 10000
timeunits. This all works when run in the Flash Player. However, if
I embed the thing in a webpage (with either FireFox or IE7 or 6),
It stops triggering after the first time. Interestingly if I also
run the Flash Player version, then the web version keeps updating,
but stops if I kill the Player. So, I'm wondering: whats up with
this?

Zen Nano - Garbled Playb

I've had my Zen Nano for almost a year now. Just recently it started behaving badly. I have a few folders of WMA encoded music on the player. These have been on the player for months. I also have a "podcasts" folder where I dump MP3 podcasts. New ones com in almost daily. Just this last week these podcasts started causing trouble.
When the podcast track starts playing, it sounds like a garbled mess. Listening closely you can hear that it is speeding through the podcast. The clock on the display reflects this. It ticks through the track time at dbl speed (or more). You hear a fraction of a recognizable word, then liquidy garbage as it skips ahead to the next recognizable quarter second.
Worse yet, it's inconsistent. If I putz with navigation, skipping forward a track, or backward, I can sometimes get it to play correctly. Cycling the power can sometimes get it to play correctly. However, this is a rare correction.
The podcasts play correctly on my compute and they can play correctly on the Nano. I cannot blame the providers because this happened all at the same time with more than a dozen different podcasts.
All the while, the older WMA's still play fine, always.
I have not updated the firmware because the notes on the firmware make no mention of it correcting this behavior. I have not found any similiar threads with my searches.

Reload the firmware. Sometimes even reloading the same firmware will solve a problem. Sometimes the firmware on the player will become corrupted. I have no idea why this happens. I keep a copy of the firmware on my pc in case I need to reload it. I have not needed to do so recently. Some people have found that they need to reload the firmware once every several months or so.

7510 eFax Can Receive but not Send

I have set up my 7510 printer wirelessly to my computer and can print from my computer to the printer. Have also set up eFax and can received faxes OK.. However, when I attempt to send an eFax, the wheel spins for a while then comes back with error "Printer not connected to a network." But it is connected to a network and all wireless settings on the 7510 display reflect that. What is wrong and what to do? Printer is only a few months old and still under warranty. Checking for updates comes back that there are none.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

You can try contacting HP support, but I do not think that is going to resolve the issue.
Arris is a common manufacturer of Comcast gateways, modems, and router combo units.
The Arris TG-862 does appear to have an issue with sending eFaxes. I believe the Arris TG-862 is the newest model provided by Comcast.
If you could, verify the model of the router.
If it is the Arris TG-862, then contact Comcast to see if they have a firmware update available. If they do not have an update available, see if they can provide a different model modem/router combo unit or disable the router side of it and use a standalone such as a Netgear or Linksys/Cisco with their modem.
In the event they do not have a firmware update, I highly recommend seeing if they can exchange for a different model first.
With this model of router, what seems to be happening is that the Arris TG-862 is not processing the eFax data properly and drops the packet. This results in a lost transmission to the eFax servers. However, receiving an eFax works strictly through HP's ePrint by email and this is successful because it is a very different method from sending. The reason HP support will not be able to resolve this issue is because it is isolate to the router. Unfortunately, there are no alternative settings to make this work on the Arris TG-862.

PO no not reflecting in GL/ Vendor line item display

Hi Guys,
Please let me know that why PO no (column is displaying but) data not reflecting in GL/ Vendor line item display using TCode FS10N? What may the possible reasons and how I can get the data flow in the column?

Hi Amit,
You are right and I've changed the layout. I've already said that the field displaying there but data is not flowing in the field. I mean to say that PO no is not reflecting in the specified field. However I am able to get the PO no. in Assignment field. What may be the reason and how I get the data (PO no.) in this field?

How to clean the shiny reflective display

I got some grease and fingerprints on the shiny display of my new Macbook, it's not easy to clean it seems.
Anybody has recommendations for cleaners/solutions that don't harm the reflective surface?

Use water.
It works and is the only thing recommended in the MacBook instruction booklet.
"To clean your MacBook screen, do the following:
•Shut down your MacBook, unplug the power adapter, and remove the battery.
•Dampen a clean, soft, lint-free cloth or paper with water only and wipe the screen." (p.107)
While removing the battery may be a bit drastic, I think it's easiest and best to avoid cleaners and just use water. As long as the cloth is only slightly damp and you dry the screen afterwards with the same clean, soft, lint-free cloth or paper, it will remove anything that can be removed.

Reduce reflection in the display ?

Is there any way to reduce the reflection/glare in my glossy widescreen display ? My monitor is more like a mirror than a display. I really miss the older MAC displays inside the aluminum case.
thanks.

Use a known good Wall Charger. Maybe you are very lucky and really your iPhone is completely charged but not showing you. Try Reset, hold at same time both Home and Power buttons for about 15 seconds until iPhone shuts off by itself and then restarts. If that does not work then use a known good Wall Charger.

E52 Date Display does not update and reflect the c...

Right from day 1 the display date of my E52 does not update and reflect correct the correct date. Got the phone replaced once still the same issue. Called the customer service and they say there is no such problem with E52. They asked me to go to the repair center...(isnt that ridiculous to ask a customer of a new phone to do so?). I went to the repair center with a hope that they will replace it for me but all in vain. They also gave me a ridiculous answer that Nokia does not have a replacement policy...and I was like so is it Nokia's policy to sell broken and faulty mobiles? I was utterly dejected. The electronic store where I bought also refuse to replace because they think there is a problem and no matter I get it changed it will recur. I still do not have a solution as all my ways of getting this problem resolved are exhausted. Anyone has a solution or came across this issue which can be solved without repairing?

Ok let me state my problem. There is a date display and at midnight the date should automatically change to the next date. However that does not happen. The dealer makes the following changes Control Panel>Settings>General>Date and time> Automatic time update> On and this does not solve the problem. Then I get the mobile replaced and that too has the same problem. after going through all permutations and combinations the problem persists. To quote the email from the Contact center for Nokia in HK this was what was suggested
Menu→Ctrl. panel→Settings→General→Date and time→Time zone→please select Hong Kong→Automatic time update→please select Off
However, if the situation still occurred by following the above settings, please be advised to bring your Nokia E52 along with the valid sales invoice to one of our Hong Kong Nokia Care Centres for the handset checking since we do not have such arrangement of replacing a new phone to you.
Please help!!!

Sales Order Item rejected but still reflects in Prod. Alloc. Display in APO

A line Item in the SO was rejected but it still reflected in the Prod Alloc display character combination per period in the APO.

Hi Friends
I have resolved the problem myself. I have used sap note : 97272 and downloaded the utility/ correction program ZZUNREJE and ran it for rejected sales line item.
The reason for rejection was successfully reversed without touching any of the associated POs.
