Distribute spacing of text objects that are in a group doesn't work

Here's the scenario:
create a set of discreet text objects, say for a nav bar on a web site
put these in a group
open the align objects panel
set the "Align to" to "Selection"
attempt that the distribute spacing (or, in fact, any of the align panel options) doesn't seem to work. I have to ungroup the objects first.
If i choose Align to Artboard some of the options work.
Is this a ttwii (that's the way it is) or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Steve

Yes ttwi.
Align & Distribute, aligns and distributes groups, not the elements within a group.
If this was the other way around trying to align logos/UPCs/illustrations would create a mess as these are usually groups of multiple elements.

There is no way to block text messages. You may wish to report them to your carrier

Both my husband and I have both downloaded the new IOS 8.2 and now he is getting my text messages that are only addressed to me He is a 5 and I have a 6. How can I fix that?

My husband and I have both downloaded the new IOS 8.2 and now he is getting my text messages that are only addressed to me. He has a 5 and I have a 6. It is like we are synced together. How can I fix that?

Is he getting your SMS messages (green) or your iMessages (blue). If SMS message, go to Settings>Messages and turn off Text Forwarding. If blue, are you sharing an Apple ID? You should each have your own.

Is it possible to group 2 objects that are located on 2 different pages in InDesign CS4 JS

Is it possible to group 2 objects that are located on 2 different pages. Would it be something like that:
        var myArray = new Array;
        //Add the items to the array.
        myArray.push(myLine1);
        myArray.push(myLine2);
        //Group the items.
        var myPages = app.activeDocument.pages;
        myGroup = myPage.groups.add(myArray);
Thank you very much for your help.
Yulia

You can group objects from distinct pages only if they belong to the same spread.
For instance, if you have a rectangle on page 2 and a rectangle on page 3 in a "facing pages" configuration, this should work:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var r2 = doc.pages[1].rectangles[0]; // rectangle on page 2
var r3 = doc.pages[2].rectangles[0]; // rectangle on page 3
// it's better here to handle the parent spread:
var g = doc.spreads[1].groups.add([r2,r3]);
// but this may also work:
// var g = doc.pages[1].groups.add([r2,r3]);
// var g = doc.pages[2].groups.add([r2,r3]);

Stop sharing an Apple ID. That is the cause.

If an internal ID is changed for the Work Repository how does it affect objects that are already in it? Will they continue to run or do you need to cycle the ODI agent?

I was having trouble migrating the Master and Work repositories from my QA to my Prod environment. I was getting an error message that the internal id's were alike so I changed the internal id in my Prod Master repository. Then I tried to migrate the Work repository and was getting a similar error. I did a search on the internet for the error message and it recommended that I renumber the Work repository so I did. My concern now is how these changes affect the objects that are already in the repositories? Will those objects continue to run? Also do these changes take affect immediately or do you need to cycle the ODI agent?

Well I cannot completely assure you but so far I have not faced any issues after a renumber. It will affect the exist object only when you have imported the object in synonym_update mode. I believe you have the daily backup of your production repository.

How do I preview objects that are outside of artboard.

Hello,
When I placed an illustrator file in Indesign, I would select command+D > select "Show Import Options" and we have a preview of the image. On some occasions, the preview will include all extraneous objects that are outside of the artboard and other times, it will display only the image within the artboard or bounding box. (Please see attached samples)
Does anyone know the reason behind this?
Thanks,
Sutagami

The only way I can reproduce what you are experiencing is if I save out as an .eps and am not mindful of the Artboard check box on the save dialog. If you deselect this check box you will get all of the file content, if you select this check box you will only get the designated Artboard bounding area. But you never said what file format your are saving or what version of Illustrator you are using. I have to assume you are in CS4.

Security Scopes: All instances of the objects that are related to the assigned security roles greyed out

So the guy who built our SCCM server is no longer in the company and his AD account no longer exists. I noticed in SCCM however his account as the "All instances of the objects that are related to the assigned security roles"
is selected. however the option is greyed out for everyone else.
This option is the one found under Administration/Security/Administrative Users select the user and open properties then select the Security Scopes tab.
Is there a way we can provide another user this same level access when we can no longer access through the original build account?
Already looked into tombstone resurrection of his account thats a no go.

Hi,
I recommend you rebuild SCCM or open a case with Microsoft.

To get all the objects that are used inside the class

Hi All,
All i wanna know is to get all the objects that are used inside the class.
Ex :
Class A{
Emp e;
public add(Dept d){
e.deptid = d.deptId;
in this class i have two objects, one Emp obj and another Dept object.
I wanna get the details abt this class Emp and Dept by simply parsing the file and by not loading this class in JVM.
Could any pls hel me out.??
thx.

I wanna get the details abt this class Emp and Dept
by simply parsing the file and by not loading this
class in JVM.Your problem statement is vague and the constraint is IMO hypothetical.

How to count the number of text boxes that are data entered

How to count the number of text boxes that are data entered in visual basic form.

Here is an Iterator that expands on my previous response:
''' <summary>
''' Iterator for form controls
''' </summary>
''' <param name="onlyControlsOfType">specify type if a certain type of controls needed</param>
''' <param name="onlyTopLevel">if true don't search containers within the form</param>
''' <returns></returns>
''' <remarks></remarks>
Private Iterator Function AllControls(Optional onlyControlsOfType As Type = Nothing, _
Optional onlyTopLevel As Boolean = False) As IEnumerable(Of Control)
Dim ctrl As Control = Me.GetNextControl(Me, True)
Do Until ctrl Is Nothing
If onlyControlsOfType Is Nothing OrElse ctrl.GetType = onlyControlsOfType Then
If TypeOf ctrl.Parent Is Form OrElse Not onlyTopLevel Then
Yield ctrl
End If
End If
ctrl = Me.GetNextControl(ctrl, True)
Loop
End Function
Some sample uses:
For Each
For Each c As Control In AllControls()
Debug.WriteLine(c.Name)
Next
List of all controls, including controls in containers i.e. Groupbox
Dim l As List(Of Control) = AllControls().ToList
List of all Textbox controls, including Textboxes in containers i.e. Groupbox
l = AllControls(GetType(TextBox)).ToList
List of all Textbox controls, don't include Textboxes in containers i.e. Groupbox
l = AllControls(GetType(TextBox), True).ToList

I cannot open the new email icon for 10.6.8 including the latest security update. My old "Stamp" icon email won't let me in either indicating that the new OS version doesn't work. Please help. I have spend over 4 hours installing and reinstalling updates, etc. and I don't know where to go from here.....

Mac OS X v10.6: Mail.app won’t open, or "You can't use this version of Mail…" alert after installing Security Update 2012-004:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4424?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Fellow user Grant Bennet-Alder offers this solution:
Some users have reported this problem if the Mail Application has been moved out of the top-level /Applications folder, or duplicated in another location.
When the Security Update is done, the old version of Mail is disabled.
The solution has been to:
1) make certain Mail is in the /Applications folder
2) There is no other copy anywhere else.
3) Once steps 1 and 2 have been done, Manually download and re-apply the Security Update (2012-004) by hand.
Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard)
If the Mail.app has been LOST, it can be re-installed by applying the 10.6.8 version 1.1 combo update. But this update is quite large and it is usually not necessary:

CMS objects that are orphaned in the Input FRS

Post Author: [email protected]
CA Forum: Administration
Is there a tool / way to comb through the CMS objects and clean up CMS objects that do not have a file that exists in the Input FRS?
Not sure how we ended up with these orphaned objects, product of migration i guess.

Post Author: jsanzone
CA Forum: Administration
Jason,
I'm not sure what the case would be if you were to allow these orphans to linger around, as best as I can tell there are no inherent problems. However, as good administrators we sometimes feel best when things are neat, tidy, and all accounted for. In answer to your question, I do not know of any tool per se, other than using the artificats that Bus Objects leaves us with to "check things out" and to also use other resources as we see fit. The best I can imagine in getting to the data you seek is as follows:
- use the Query Builder tool (/businessobjects/enterprise115/WebTools/websamples/query/query.aspx">https://<server>/businessobjects/enterprise115/WebTools/websamples/query/query.aspx?
- in the "enter your SQL code here" box, type: select si_files,si_name from ci_infoobjects where si_obtype=260 (then click on "Submit Query")
- you will get a screenful of info back in your browser, and this is where the "tricky" part starts. If you're working in a unix (or unix-flavored) environment (or have "grep", "cut" and "paste" for windows), you can highlight all the text that is returned, then copy to a text file. Using grep, you can grep on "SI_FILES SI_PATH" | cut -c24- and output to another text file. Then you can grep on "SI_FILE1" |cut -c10- and output to another text file. Then finally, paste -d"/" <file1text> <file2text> (this puts the two parts together with a slash between thus resembling a file name. The next task is to go the place where your filestore is at (if you've not moved it from the original installation, then most likely at "C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\FileStore"). From here you'll have to obtain a pathname/filename list of all your "*.wid" files (in unix this is easy, however, in Windows/DOS, you might try zipping everything to a PKZip file, then "test" the file and copy/paste the output from it to another text file. Once you have the two text files in front of you then you can use a variety of tools to "match things up" (i.e. import to Access as two tables and use inner join/outer join techniques, etc, etc).
In my particular case, the query builder is telling me that I have 894 objects, however, doing an Explorer search I get 880 objects, so I have 14 orphans in CMS. I'm not sure how this happens either and I'm not sure how I'd go about removing these puppies from CMS either, but I guess if I took the above steps, I'd know exactly which IDs in CMS were out of whack.
Good luck.

How to get the list of object that are going to modify during the upgrade?

We are upgrading sap 4.OB to ECC 6, is there any place we will get the list of standard object which are going to modify in service market place? Please let me know the link to get those details.
Thanks

Usually you get this list when upgrading first system (sandbox type) via SPDD and SPAU. (useful for objects modified in your system - SNOTE or mofications) - The whole list of modified objects will be huge, many (most) objects were modified (created, even deleted) those last 13 years.
There are also tools that may help you like [panaya|http://www.panayainc.com/] (but i'm not sure for a 4.0B, it worked fine for a 46c) - look for tools/vendor at [Partner Information Center: Search|http://www.sap.com/partners/directories/SearchSolution.epx]

Refrencing objects that are not present on frame 1 of a movieclip

Hi everyone!
I'm working with a movieclip right now that has two frames in it. I want the user to be able to go back and forth between the pages by clicking on tabs on either page. The button that they click on is only present on the frame that it is applicable (so, the button to switch to frame 2 is only present on frame 1, and vice versa).
I want to control when they are able to click back and forth, and be able to turn the buttons on and off whenever I need to, but since the button to switch back to frame 1 is only on frame 2, when I reference it from the main timeline, the button registers as a null object. How do I refrence an object that is not present on the first frame of a clip?
Here's the gist of what I have. The main timeline has an object called "mAccess" that has 2 frames, Windows and Reports. At the top there are two tabs, one for Windows, one for Reports. The Windows tab is only clickable when on the Reports frame (frame 2) and the Reports tab is only clickable when on the Windows frame (frame 1)
Main Timeline:
     mAccess.bReports.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotoreportstab);
     function gotoreportstab(event:MouseEvent) {
          mAccess.gotoAndStop(2);
     mAccess.bWindows.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, gotowindowstab);           <--- This gives me the error about the null object reference,
     function gotowindowstab(event:MouseEvent) {                                                                 since bWindows does not exist on frame 1 of mAccess.
          mAccess.gotoAndStop(1);
Thanks for whatever help you can give me!

the bottomline is you can't reference an object that doesn't exist (yet). the easiest work-around is to make sure your object exists on the frames where you need to reference it. the object doesn't need to be visible so this isn't much extra-work. you can add and remove the object from the displaylist as you see fit or enable and disable its visible property.

I book text boxes that are not used will not show up in the printed book?

If I don't want to use all the text boxes for my printed book will the outline be printed anyway?(black background with white text box) I assume there is no way to turn the captions off.
Many thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
Which theme and layout are you discussing
In general text boxes do not show in printed books - however they must have something in them - at least a single space
But some clearly show up - in the travel theme the layouts that have text blocks that look like a torn piece of paper or a post card will of course print
Always preview your book and verify the resulting PDF to see what you rfinal book will look like - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
And usually I can find an alternative layout with no text
