DTW - setting item properties

Hello,
I've been trying to get this to work and I think I have tried most of the obvious options. I'm trying to set an item property (QryGroup1) in the OITM table and the DTW is giving me an error no matter what I try. So here's what I've done and hopefully someone can point me in a new direction.
In my template (Items.xlt), in the Properties1 field (which I'm almost positive maps to the QryGroup1 field in the table), I have tried inputting "Y", "Yes", "1", and "tYes". None of those have worked. I've also tried changing the template column header to 'QryGroup1' just for the heck of it. The error I've gotten is " '' is not a valid value for field 'QryGroup1'. The valid values are: 'Y' - 'Yes', 'N' - 'No'Application-defined or object-defined erroroItems". I don't know really what else to do since I've already tried the values it has suggested to me with no luck. It's just weird that it doesn't even include what I have in my template in the error message either (it just puts a blank in as the invalid value).
That's pretty much it. I'm hoping that somebody out there knows what's going on. I have a little over 1300 items to flag this property on and would rather not do it manually. I figured this would be pretty straightforward to do (since all of my other times using DTW have worked fine) but obviously not. I'm using SBO 2005A SP1 PL31, DTW version 2005.0.17, API version 6.80.319 (this is from inside DTW).
Thanks in advance for any help,
Brent McDonell

Hi Gordon,
That worked. I didn't think the field was case-sensitive. So I had tried it as 'tYes' and not 'tYES' (which is why it didn't work initially). I definitely do think I was making it harder on myself now that I know it was just a problem with upper-case vs. lower-case. Thank you very much for your help.

Document set items properties

Hi
I have a document set with properties Type, name , modified and modified by . I want to include additional properties in document set content items .Is there a way to change the properties , or hide some properties from document
set .How do i do that?
ex
i e add more properties in document set contents as it inherits from document set
Thanks in advance
nain1987

Click Library settings on the ribbon, and within that click the Document Set Content Type.
The next page you'll see has an option called Document Set Settings.
Here you can specify properties for the document set itself, plus which are inherited by the items in the document set.
If you want items to have properties independent of the document set, add those in the library settings page.
If you want to change what is displayed, change the Views for the library or those views used by the document set.

Setting Item level access rights on sharepoint list item in ItemAdding event handler

Hi ,
I am using sharepoint 2013. I am trying to set item level access rights when a list item is added using the following code snippet,
public override void ItemAdding(SPItemEventProperties properties)
base.ItemAdding(properties);
ConfigureItemSecurity(properties);
private void ConfigureItemSecurity(SPItemEventProperties properties)
var item=properties.ListItem;
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
using (SPSite site = new SPSite(properties.SiteId))
using (SPWeb oWeb = site.OpenWeb())
item.ParentList.BreakRoleInheritance(true);
oWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
var guestRole = oWeb.RoleDefinitions.GetByType(SPRoleType.Reader);
var editRole = oWeb.RoleDefinitions.GetByType(SPRoleType.Editor);
SPGroup HRGroup = oWeb.SiteGroups.Cast<SPGroup>().AsQueryable().FirstOrDefault(g => g.LoginName=="HR Team");
SPRoleAssignment groupRoleAssignment = new SPRoleAssignment(HRGroup);
groupRoleAssignment.RoleDefinitionBindings.Add(guestRole);
SPUserCollection users = oWeb.Users;
SPFieldUserValueCollection hm = (SPFieldUserValueCollection)item["HiringManager"];
SPFieldUserValueCollection pm = (SPFieldUserValueCollection)item["ProjectManager"];
SPFieldUserValueCollection pmChiefs = (SPFieldUserValueCollection)item["ProjectManagerChief"];
item.BreakRoleInheritance(true);
item.RoleAssignments.Add(groupRoleAssignment);
foreach (SPFieldUserValue staffMember in hm)
SetRightsOnItem(item, staffMember, editRole);
foreach (SPFieldUserValue staffMember in pm)
SetRightsOnItem(item, staffMember, guestRole);
foreach (SPFieldUserValue staffMember in pmChiefs)
SetRightsOnItem(item, staffMember, guestRole);
item.Update();
private void SetRightsOnItem(SPListItem item, SPFieldUserValue staffMember, SPRoleDefinition role)
SPUser employeeUser = staffMember.User;
var userRoleAssignment = new SPRoleAssignment(employeeUser);
userRoleAssignment.RoleDefinitionBindings.Add(role);
item.RoleAssignments.Add(userRoleAssignment);
Nothing is happening though... Is the event handler the right place to do this?
thank you

Labels pointing to pie slices with lines (or how 2 set chart properties in code behind)

I want to be able to create lines outside of my pie chart with labels and have those lines drawn to connect to the pie chart. I saw that this can be done in code behind in the following thread:
MSDN thread on lines to pie slices
But my problem is I never declared an instance of my chart when I am using my code behind. My code that makes the reports visible is basically (but not completely) the following:
ReportDataSet.Tables.Add(ReportDataTable)
ReportViewer.Visible = True
Dim ReportDataSource As ReportDataSource = New ReportDataSource("ReportDataSource", ReportDataSet.Tables(0))
ReportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = ReportToDisplay.RDLCFileName
ReportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear()
ReportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(ReportDataSource)
ReportDataSource.Name = ReportToDisplay.DataSetName
ReportViewer.DataBind()
ReportViewer.LocalReport.Refresh()
ReportViewer.ShowReportBody = True
ReportViewer.Width = RVWidth
ReportViewer.Height = RVHeight
So how do I set chart properties for my report given the above code? As long as I can set my chart properties with the above code, I should be able to get this to work given the above thread and the link to the Label-Outside-of-Pie and Line-Color properties
(or whatever) info on Microsoft's info page

Hello,
Based on your description, you want to design a
pie chart with outside lables and pie line inside a .rdlc report. If so, you can add the Chart report item into the report after open a client report definition (.rdlc) file in graphical design mode. And then Set the
PieLabelStyle property and PieLineColor property. Please refer to the following screen shot:
The link your post above it about the
Chart Web server control. As pre my undersntand, you cannot reference a Web server control inside .rdlc file.
If you have any question about using Chart Web server control, you can post a question on
Chart Controls for .NET Framework forum.

Set item property to false and true

when i set item to false and then set item property to true. The item is displayed but its gray out and not enabled. Am i missing something
Set_Item_Property('PUSH_BUTTON_SAVE',VISIBLE,PROPERTY_FALSE);
and then
Set_Item_Property('PUSH_BUTTON_SAVE',VISIBLE,PROPERTY_TRUE);

Check the Forms online help on Set_Item_Property, near the bottom in the usage notes. Lots of things happen when you set visible to False:
Setting DISPLAYED to False:
sets the Enabled and Navigable item properties to False
sets the Updateable item property to False
sets the Update_Null item property to False
sets the Required item property to False
sets the Queryable item property to False
So you may need to set more of them back to true in your code when you want to make it re-display.

User manipulation of web item properties

Hi everyone,
I have a requirement from a client where they want to be able to dynamically manipulate web item properties, more specifally they want to change the number of columns of a report displayed on the web.
For instance, lets say I have a web template that has a query assigned to it and displays a report. In the bex web designer, you can set the number of columns displayed in the properties section of the web item. I want to be able to change this property directly from the web with the help of a drop down box.
Is it possible to do this, and if so, how?
I have tried to search the forums for a similar questions but with no luck.
Thanks!!
best regards,
Dionisios

Hi,
Are you referring to the Table item property named DATA_COLUMN_TO? Aren't you able to change it by adding it at the end of your url with the desired value?
If you need to add a button or a new context menu entry then you will need to add some javascript to your web template.
Please, check how to guide about adding a new context menu entry (How to enhance context menu).
Hope it helps,
David.

Which Forms Item properties are converted to APEX?

Has it been documented which Forms item properties are converted to APEX with the Application Migrations tool?
For instance the 'required' property will be converted, but item properties like 'format', 'initial value', 'hint', 'tooltip', 'auto hint', 'justification', 'case restriction' and 'max length' are ignored
I hope more Forms item properties will be converted in a next APEX release.
Regards,
Mathieu

Hello Roel,
Thanks for the suggestion. I have read that piece of paper, but it doesn't tell you in detail what item properties are converted.
I would have liked for instance that the "hint text" property is converted into a help text for a page item.
If the auto hint or tooltip is set in forms, than the Template label of a page item should be set to optional/required with help.
and so on...
There are more item properties which could have a destination in APEX, I reckon.
Now it's difficult to tell which are and which aren't converted.
As soon as you have this kind of list you know which post configuration actions you have to perform.
regards,
Mathieu

Unable to set template properties

I have a site which is based off of a responsive design (HTML5/CSS3/jQuery). I've setup a nice template for our Contribute users however I get the "Unable to set template properties" error when I would try to enter the template properties. Additionally, repeating regions don't work at all. No error, nothing. They work great with Dreamweaver, but not Contribute.
I previously had this issue with an older (non-responsive) site which was based off of a Dreamweaver CS5.5 built in template. However with that site, I would get the following error when trying to work with a repeating region, "You can't add items to repeating regions because the draft's parent template is missing or not available to users in your role. Please contact the website administrator." I was able to fix this with the following Contribute 6.5 settings.
Users can ONLY be able to create new pages from copies of select pages. I just made blank versions of the templates I wanted people to use, and just saved them in the /Templates directory.
Be sure creating new pages from site templates is turned OFF.
Be sure creating new pages from content types is turned OFF.
This is not the case with the newer site. I've tried both transitional and compatibility modes in the Contribute site settings but still nothing.
Anyone experiencing this or have any fix ideas?

Update:
Looks like I'm going to have to settle on not using nested templates. I gave it a try with on a page from a single un-nested template and both template properties and repeating regions worked.
So now I'll be including all the global code via PHP includes rather than a master Dreamweaver template. Not sure how that will effect broken link reports or global link updates but it looks like it's the only solution for now.

How to dynamically changes items properties

How to dynamically changes items properties likes position order in tabular view, width, prompt

Many object properties can be set programmatically at runtime. For example, each window object has a Visible property that can be set to either Yes or No to show and hide the window. At runtime, you can call the built-in procedure SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY to show or hide the window dynamically, as shown here:
Set_Window_Property('my_window',VISIBLE, PROPERTY_ON);
The following built-in procedures are available for setting object properties at runtime:
-     SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY
-     SET_CANVAS_PROPERTY
-     SET_FORM_PROPERTY
-     SET_ITEM_PROPERTY
-     SET_LOV_PROPERTY
-     SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY
-     SET_PARAMETER_ATTR
-     SET_RADIO_BUTTON_PROPERTY
-     SET_RECORD_PROPERTY
-     SET_RELATION_PROPERTY
-     SET_VIEW_PROPERTY
-     SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY
The built-in procedure SET_ITEM_PROPERTY can be used to set the properties of any type of item, including buttons, text items, check boxes, radio groups, etc.
Note: Radio group items include individual radio buttons; use SET_ITEM_PROPERTY to set the properties of the radio group, and SET_RADIO_BUTTON_PROPERTY to set the properties of the individual buttons in the group.
Each built-in SET procedure has a corresponding GET function that allows you to programmatically determine the current setting of an object's properties. The following example uses GET_WINDOW_PROPERTY to determine if a window is currently hidden (VISIBLE = FALSE). If the window is hidden, SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY is called to show the window.
If Get_Window_Property('my_window',VISIBLE) = 'FALSE' THEN
Set_Window_Property('my_window',VISIBLE,PROPERTY_ON);
To determine if a particular property can be set programmatically, refer to the property descriptions in online Help.

Database Item Propert

Hi,
I see that it is said that whenever an item of display
time (say which contains a summary or calculation) is
placed in a datablock then its "Database Item" property
should be set to "No".
Any reason why it should be set to No.
I am having a Text Item within a data block which
is calculated according to :ORDER_ITEMS.QTY * :ORDER_ITEMS
.UNIT_PRICE. Its Database Item propert is set to Yes
and I am having no problem.
I did similar experiment with a Summary field and faced
no problem.
But there must be a valid reason.
I am new to forms so my questions may seem a bit silly.
Excuse me for this.
Thanks,
Caesar

Caesar,
this is from the online help:
The following item properties are defaulted to No at compilation time:
Database Item
Insert Allowed
Primary Key
Query Allowed
Required Update
Allowed Update
Only if NULL.
So you may want to prove that the calculation really is written to the database. It seems that Oracle gracefully handles properties that aren't set properly.

Final Cut Imports my clips with the wrong item properties

Ok, I have a really weired issue. I have a bunch of HDV footage that was captured. The source footage is HDV 1080p24, 1440 x 1080. Quick time reads it just fine, and so does Final Cut Pro on several machines, except the machine i need to edit the stuff on.
It is really weired. When I import it in to final cut and put it in the time line it turn says it needs to be rendered. And my sequence setting are set correctly. Because it works on other machines. So i go to check my Item properties and Final cut is interpreting the footage as 1920 x 1080 with Square pixel aspec ratio. When the frame size should be 1440 x 1080 and the pixel aspect should be HD (1440x1080). I am using Final Cut version 5.1.2, and I cant for the life of me figure out what the problem is. Can anyone please help.

I am going to try to capture HD1050p.60 video into my Final Cut Studio Pro Tomorrow morning. I have five tapes with an hour of video on each of them. I want to maintain my high resolution HD quality. This is the first time I have attempted to do this. I understand that I use the easy capture. I have read a lot of the posts I understand there may be a problem if the camera man did not leave gaps between the takes in that 4 seconds of the video is cut off. I asked him to shut down the camera between takes to save film but most of the takes were 10 minutes or more -- does that mean that I will lose the first 4 seconds of the video when I transfer? I also understand that I must import sound and video seperately. How will I ever be able to match up the sound with the video if they do not import together? The Camera that was used was a Sony HDVDVCAM 3ccd30fpm HDV1080i1DV. Can you please give me some advise as to how to do the import without losing the quality of my video. Also, do I need to set up the final cut pro for 16/9 frame width which is what my video is. Right now I have my studio pro on a 720 which is what the demo learning video was. I would appreciate any help you can give me. I have purchased a 250Gig Lacie to transfer my video to since I understand that if I put all of the video into Studio Pro it will be too massive to work with.

Anamorphic flag in FC for title item properties

I've been trying to figure out how to get my titles to be anamorphic. I shoot it widescrenn 16:9, so all my FCE sequences are set to that.
I noticed some people change their title project properties to have a 1.25 pixel aspect ratio and then import it to FCE and then select item properties and set an "anamorphic flag."
HOW do you do this? When I select project properties for my live type title I can see the properties but I can't change anything but the title of the file. Everything else is grayed out.
How do I flag a LT file in FC to be recognized as anamorphic in FCE?
I'm using FCE HD 3.5

In LiveType open the project properties with Command Zero. There will be a field for pixel aspect ratio. If this is greyed out there must be another issue. Is the file locked or in use by another application?

How to set CORS properties for BLOB Storage using node?

Hi - I just got started with Azure using a Node-based web site and mobile services.
I am following various documentation in order to provide an API for users to upload images via a time-restricted SAS for the BLOB Storage.
In order to upload my image, I need to set the CORS configuration for the BLOB Storage. Unfortunately this cannot be done via the management portal.
I'm unclear as to how to accomplish this. I'm considering using the startup.js file in my mobile service to make a post request to the BLOB Storage REST API:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/hh452235.aspx
Are there appropriate methods in the Node SDK to make this easier, especially the signing part?
What is the recommended way for setting CORS properties for the BLOB Storage via Node?
Thanks for your help
Stefan

Unfortunately Node SDK does not support CORS functionality yet. Your option would be to write code which consumes the REST API for setting CORS. Not sure if it helps but there's a free tool out there written by my company which you can use to set CORS
on your storage account. More information about this tool can be found here:
http://blog.cynapta.com/2013/12/cynapta-azure-cors-helper-free-tool-to-manage-cors-rules-for-windows-azure-blob-storage/
Hope this helps.
