Dynamically Decaling Properties in PS CS3's plug in

Now Im developing a plug-in for Photoshop CS3, and I want to dynamically change its properties other than statically define them in PiPL.
But Photoshop never send message "SP Properties" to my plug-in, so I have no chance to handle SPPropertiesMessage. Id like to appreciate if anyone could let me know how to let PS send message acquiring properties or whether PS really support this kind of approach, thanks!

PS does not support that kind of approach. PS does not support all of the SP API's. The static PiPL property is all you have for defining a plug-in. (Helps our launch time for warm launch)

Dynamically creating properties

Hi,
I'm migrating my application from NW 7.0 to NW 7.11 CE.
Previously I dynamically created properties from my application and they were automatically created as onlinemodifiable = true.
When I migrated my project the properties were no longer created as modifiable.
Can anybody point me to documentation or suggest a way to solve this issue?
Here's my code creating the dynamic property:
          Configuration cfg = null;
          try {
               cfg =
                    _cfgHandler.openSubConfiguration(
                         "application.global.properties",
                         ConfigurationHandler.WRITE_ACCESS);
          } catch (NameNotFoundException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          } catch (ConfigurationLockedException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          } catch (ConfigurationException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          // get the property sheet
          PropertySheet ps = cfg.getPropertySheetInterface();
          // Create the property
          ps.createSecurePropertyEntry(propertyName, "", "");
          // commit the changes
          _cfgHandler.commit();
          cfg.close();
Best Regards,

Hi,
Probably this configuration can be done through NWA [check this|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwesrce/helpdata/en/18/5157425e060d53e10000000a155106/content.htm]

Problem displaying dynamically loaded text in Flash CS3

I created a Flash CS3 application that does not display
dynamically loaded text (from internal AS3 scripts) on 3/6 of my
client's computers. All computers run IE 6 and Flash Player 9. I
cannot replicate the problem on any computer in my department. The
problem seems to be related to Flash Player 9 or a browser
setting/IT restriction. Has anyone encountered this? If so, have
you found a solution?
If I cannot find a solution, then I will need to almost
completely redo the application.
One slightly insane idea I have considered is to, if
possible, convert dynamically loaded text to an image real-time. Is
that possible?
Btw, I have created a font in my library. Should I try
manually embedding the font from the Properties menu and selecting
all characters?
Thanks in advance.

yes, even though you may be using a font from the library,
you still have to specify that each text field that uses that font
embeds the font, and you'll need to select all characters(well not
all, unless you require all the different scripts of the world -
upper-case, lower-case, numerals and punctuation usual suffices).
I bet if you checked, the computers where the font did not
appear did not have the font on their system.
Good luck

FTP Adapter - Dynamic JCA properties.

Hi All,
I have a requirement to dynamically assign few jca properties in FTP Adapter as listed below,
FileName
JNDI name
PhysicalDirectory
AchiveDirectory
DeleteFile
UseRemoteArchive
Out of these, i am able to dynamically set the values for Source/Target fileName, JNDIName and Source/Target directory.
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.FileName" variable="SOURCE_FILENAME"/>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.jndi" variable="SOURCE_JNDI"/>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.Directory" variable="SOURCE_DIRECTORY"/>
Can anyone let me know what values can be used for other properties as well? I tried using the below values, but the values are not changed dynamically.
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.FileArchiveDirectory" variable="SOURCE_ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY"/>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.DeleteFile" variable="DELETE_SOURCE_FILE"/> and <bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.DeleteFile" variable="DELETE_SOURCE_FILE"/>
<bpelx:inputProperty name="jca.ftp.UseRemoteArchive" variable="ARCHIVE_REQD"/>
Thanks,
Mukesh

AS: setting table properties in ID CS3 invokes odd error message

I'm converting an InDesign CS2 script to CS3 and am having the strangest error. This code used to work in ID CS2 for the selected text frame:
>tell parent story of insertion point 1 of selection
>set theTable to make table with properties {width:gridColumnWidth, body row count:totalGridRows, header row count:0, footer row count:0, column count:totalGridColumns, height:gridRowHeight, left border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, right border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, top border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, bottom border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, left border stroke type:"Solid", right border stroke type:"Solid", top border stroke type:"Solid", bottom border stroke type:"Solid", space after:0, space before:0}
>end tell
But now it chokes and gives me this strange error:
>Adobe InDesign CS3 got an error: Invalid value for set property 'height'. Expected number or string, but received 21.80909090909093.
Huh? That obviously has to be a number or string, so what's going on? What's even weirder is if I delete all the table properties except for weight and height, the script doesn't give the error. I know I can do this with a table style, but I'd like to understand what the problem is before I take that step.

Shane:
I was completely distracted by another project and am just getting back to addressing this problem. Sorry about that.
Anyway, your suggestion was a sound one: I set the width and height in the first statement, added everything else in a second statement, and it worked perfectly. Thanks! Any idea why I needed to do so?

Cs3/indd plug-in problem! Please help!

I am trying to open an indd doc in cs3, and the doc was also created by a different author using cs3, however i can't open the doc due to missing or outdated plugins. There are 2 screens that appear, one with a shorter list, then a second screen with a much longer list of about 25+ that are missing. Where and how do I locate these missing plug-ins? Thanks for your help!

Ok, thanks! That's what I thought but was told otherwise. Any solutions other than using a later version?

Setting dynamic variable properties

I asked this down in the Actionscript 3.0 forum, but maybe it
was the wrong place... I really need some help on this to finish
off an application we are creating.
Thanks!
If I create the textareas dynamically how do I loop through
them later on to set their properties?
so basically I have some textareas with ids of
myText_0
myText_1
myText_2
myText_3
(etc)
and I have a loop of
for (var x:int=0; x<4; x++)
// insert AS3 code here
inside the loop I need to be able to say something like:
myText_x.height = 50;
myText_x.text = "Hello " + x.toString();

Thanks ntsiii the bracket notation didn't work the way you
put it, but if it is written as:
this["myText_" + x].height = 50;
this["myText_" + x].text = "Hello " + x.toString();
And to think three days ago I put had it with parens instead
of brackets (argh).

Dynamic Partnerlink Properties?

I am doing a HTTP Post "web service" call - and setting up some necessary HTTP header properties by adding them in my bpel.xml as custom partnerLink properties...
<partnerLinkBinding name="MyHTTPWebService">
<property name="From">DIATOCCD</property>
<property name="MessageName">D8_REQ_CREATE</property>
<property name="OrigUser">MyUsername</property>
<property name="Password">MyPassword</property>
</partnerLinkBinding>
This works fine. These properties come across in the HTTP Post as HTTP Headers. Now the customer wants me to add a new HTTP Header - and make the value dynamic at run-time. As far as I can tell, this is not possible. But maybe I'm missing something obvious. So they'd want something like this ...
<partnerLinkBinding name="MyHTTPWebService">
<property name="From">DIATOCCD</property>
<property name="MessageName">D8_REQ_CREATE</property>
<property name="OrigUser">MyUsername</property>
<property name="Password">MyPassword</property>
<property name="TransactionID">10001</property> (this value would be determined at run-time)
</partnerLinkBinding>
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Rod

I am now attacking this a bit differently. I have abandoned the WSIF method of doing HTTP Binding - and am writing some Java code in a Java Embedding component to do the HTTP POST "manually". Not pretty - but it allows me to dynamically set my HTTP Headers in the Java code. Does anyone know what disadvantages this may cause (performance, robustness, etc.)?
Thanks for any help.

Dynamic Font properties.

Hello everyone:
I have a project, in which the information for the client is
inserted dynamically by the end user. Meaning, my customer pays us
to create a splash screen in Director. This splash screen has blank
text fields. When my client types information in a specific line of
a notepad.txt the blank text fields get populated with the required
info. The info on the .txt file are things like names, telephone
#'s, emails, etc. Now my client wants to be able to change the font
properties dynamically also. Is there anywhere that I can get a
list of font properties for Director. So far I have some, like :
member("info").font= "arial"
member("info").forecolor=5
Also, with the forecolor, is there anywhere with a list of
what the =number means? I mean, numbers are not very colorful, what
if the customer wants blue, of green, or red.
Thank you!

Dynamic Jump Menu Problem in CS3

I'm trying to create a link in a Jump Menu to a Detail Page.php by setting the parameters in the menu item to match a value in a recordset. When selected from the menu, a new page should open with a subset of the original php page. So far I haven't found a method to transfer a value in the menu to a url parameter which can be used by the target php page. Any suggestions appreciated.
Regards to the List

Nevermind. I was over-thinking the problem and adding dynamic parameters, when a simple solution was all that was required.

Creating Dynamic Text Field for Flash CS3 in Illustrator CS3

I've created a series of buttons in an illustration and made
them into movie clip symbols in Illustrator. I then created some
text fields for the button labels and assigned them as dynamic text
in the Flash Text panel in Illustrator.
When I import the illustration into Flash and test the movie,
I get this error message:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert
flash.text::TextField@d18cef9 to flash.display.MovieClip.
at
flash.display::Sprite/flash.display:Sprite::constructChildren()
at flash.display::Sprite$iinit()
at flash.display::MovieClip$iinit()
at menu2_fla::MainTimeline$iinit()
It seems like Flash is misinterpreting the text fields
brought in from Illustrator as Movie Clips?

Download the TinkSpark source from http://code.google.com/p/tink/source/checkout and add the package to your project:
Then write the following code:
import ws.tink.core.Library;
import ws.tink.events.LibraryEvent;
import ws.tink.managers.LibraryManager;
private function loadLibrary():void
     var library:Library = LibraryManager.libraryManager.createLibrary( "assetsLibrary" );
     library.addEventListener( LibraryEvent.LOAD_COMPLETE, onAssetsLibraryLoadCompleteHandler, false, 0, true );
     library.loadSWF("board.swf" ); //provide the path of board.swf, pls note board.swf is alos exported as AS3.0
private function onAssetsLibraryLoadCompleteHandler( event:LibraryEvent ):void
    EventDispatcher( event.currentTarget ).removeEventListener( event.type, arguments.callee );
    var library:Library = LibraryManager.libraryManager.getLibrary( "assetsLibrary" );
    var AssetScore:Class = library.getDefinition( "Score" );
    var score:* = new AssetScore() as Sprite;
    score.scoreDisplay.text = "100";
    addChild( score );

Illustrator CS3/4 Plug-In to Preview Colors

I have about 300 different color swatch palettes in Illustrator. I have tried to name them accordingly however, I just can not remember the colors included in each. I was wondering if there was some sort of plug in or utility used to "preview" the color swatches before I open them. It is very tedious to open each one and find its not what I am looking for. Whereas a previewer would allow me to scroll thru my palettes to get the one I am looking for.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Ames

Graphic Line Properties Apple Script CS3/CS4

I was wondering if someone could post an applescript snippet for a way to produce a line that was dashed (4pt dash 4pt gap) and was 30% black. Also if anyone knows of a source that has the default properties for the graphic elements in indesign (basically a better indesign scripting dictionary then adobes) please let me know.
Thanks in advance!

This will do what you want, although you'll probably want to set other properties at the same time: tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4" tell document 1 make graphic line at end with properties {geometric bounds:{0, 0, 0, 10}, stroke type:"Dashed", stroke dash and gap:{4.0, 4.0}, stroke tint:30.0} end tell end tell > Also if anyone knows of a source that has the default properties for the > graphic elements in indesign > The properties are defined in the relevant object styles; graphic lines get the properties set in the object style marked with the Graphics Frame icon. > (basically a better indesign scripting dictionary then adobes) > If you a want a better view of the object model, get Script Debugger and use its Explorer feature <a href=http://www.latenightsw.com/>.

Dynamically named properties

This should be simple to do, but I'm not finding an answer.
Here's what I'm up to...
I'd like to adjust the property of an object, but I want the
property to be assigned dynamically. For example:
public var scrollAxis="y";
and then later:
spriteObject.scrollAxis= spriteObject.scrollAxis+30;
Where, scrollAxis is the "y" property of the spriteObject.
Granted, I could do a case statement based on the value of
"scrollAxis" (x or y), but this is accessed too many times in the
code to be efficient. Something like an evaluate() function or
something... though I haven't found that it exists?
Thanks -

hmmm, that's an interesting thought, I wonder if you can call
on a static property as a string like:
movieclip['_y'] = 100;
a little offtopic ( sorry there, gv) but interesting, I'll
have to try that.
(@GWD: OT - there's been a movement to establish a DB system
that will contain standard question answers for quick referencing
by those of us here that are regulars, dzedward has cooridinated a
php driven back end system and DB where we'll start to compile
data, you may want to get in on this, it should be handy resource
tool for us without having to retype answers that are common.
there's even a new domain www.flashgods.org :) check out the post
in the General discussion section, it's pretty long though 49-50 or
so, and it's probably a couple of page deep now, as discussion has
cooled off a little for now.)
And kglad - if you're listening, your input would be
invaluable as well. since you know damn near everything :)
