FB (Burrito) - Swap Components in DesignView

Hi there, I have a pretty basic question but cannot seem to Google the info. Here's a common scenario (for beginners, perhaps more than pros): You start laying out your application - for example - a TabNavigator populated with an HGroup, which is populated with a number of elements. Then you realize: "oh crap, I didn't want HGroup, I wanted Panel".
My question - how do I swap the HGroup for the Panel component (in DesignView) without losing all that HGroup's content? Of course, I can switch to code and manually change the component tag, but if it's so easy to do by hand, it should be equally easy to do in DesignView. Similar to Flash IDE's Swap Symbol.
Ideally it should be a context-click. Obviously you can't swap an HBox for a Button. Right-click the offending component - select Swap Component - choose the new component from a pull-down menu of eligible components.
Anyway, has this feature not been built? Or am I just missing something that ought to be really obvious but just isn't documented very well?
Thanks!

This feature doesn't exist. You'd have to do this in code. You can file a feature request for Flash Builder at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex.

Swapping Components with Fade Transition

Hey,
There are many places in my application where I swap one component out for another one. I was trying to achieve a fade transition instead of just having the new component appear. I got it working, but it is very slow. Any ideas of how to get up the FPS?
Whenever I want to transition the content into the container, I create a new SwappableComponent with the two arguments.
Thanks!
private static class SwappableComponent extends JPanel {
          private static final float[] scales = { 1f, 1f, 1f, 0.5f };
          private static final float[] offsets = new float[4];
          private static final int TRANSITION_TIME = 1000;
          private final int w, h;
          private final JComponent container, content;
          private BufferedImage fromImage, toImage, currentImage;
          private long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
          private boolean finished = false;
          public SwappableComponent(JComponent container, JComponent content) {
               this.container = container;
               this.content = content;
               w = container.getWidth();
               h = container.getHeight();
               if (w == 0 || h == 0) {
                    finish();
               } else {
                    fromImage = new BufferedImage(w, h, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
                    Graphics g = fromImage.getGraphics();

How can I swap components in my app?

I have an application (Flex3) that contains a canvas. The canvas contains an HBox with 3 components - call them team1, middleSection and team2.
team1 and team2 are canvases containing several components inside of them representing 2 sports teams (home and away).
middleSection contains a button called "swap" that simply swaps team1 and team2 (like football teams change ends at the end of each quarter).
team1 and team2 are both instances of a custom Team component that extends Canvas and contains a panel, data grid, and other goodies.
Unfortunately, I can't for the life of me get them to swap.
I had hoped to do something like this:
private function doSwapTeams(event:MouseEvent):void {
     var temp:Team = team1;
     team1 = team2;
     team2 = temp;
But no luck.
I tried getting the array of children and swapping that...again, no luck. I tried invalidating - no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi,
Try this.Here container is the HBox
private function swap():void
     var team1Index:int = container.getChildIndex(team1);
     var temp1:Canvas = container.removeChild(team1) as Canvas;
     var temp2:Canvas = container.removeChild(team2)as Canvas;
     if(team1Index == 0)
          container.addChildAt(temp2,0);
          container.addChild(temp1);
     else
          container.addChildAt(temp1,0);
          container.addChild(temp2);

Problems swapping components

Hello,
Im having some problems with my applet.
I have a JTextBox, which I wish to replace with a JComboBox. Now I know that this can be easily done with something like the following code.
dateCombo4.setBounds(searchField4.getBounds());
searchFieldsPanel.remove(searchField4);                            searchFieldsPanel.add(getDateCombo4());                             Now that works fine. But I have created alot of my GUI using Jigloo GUI editor for Eclipse. This means that there are lots of settings on the seachField4 that are not carried across to the dateCombo4
Which means that when I resize my GUI applet, it all goes pear shaped and the dateCombo4 is in the wrong place completly.
Basically im after some way of keeping most of the settings from the searchField4 or transferring them over to the dateCombo4.
Anyone got any ideas.
Sorry if its not explained very well. If you dont quite understand ill attempt to explain better.
Many thanks,
James

I don't know of any way to apply all of the attributes one JComponent to another without explicitly invoking all of the getXXX() and setXXX() methods of the respected components.
Should be easy enough to write a quick method that copies all of the relevant attributes, though.
i.e.
public static void copyAttributes(JComponent oldC, JComponent newC)
     Dimension old = oldComponent.getPreferredSize();
     newComponent.setPreferredSize(old);
}

Swapping components

I have a gui built in swing, and the main part of this is a list of files in the content area, now when i click another button i need to remove that and replace it with a textarea, having some trouble getting my head around it, doesnt seem to be as simple as i had thought it would be.
any ideas?

Check out how to use LayoutManagers:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/visual.html
You might be able to use a CardLayout.
Or in the simple case of replacing a single component the code should be something like:
removeComponent()
addComponent()
validate parent container

Wallstreet Ethernet Broken: What to swap out?

My Wallstreet G3 has a weird problem that I'm pretty certain is hardware related. One thing wrong is that I can't get the ethernet to work (all software is present).
Is the ethernet "card" on a Wallstreet part of the logic board or can you replace it separately?
Other problems include not booting to OS 9.1 CD but will boot to 8.x CD. But OS 9.1 CD will boot to other Wallstreets so I know CD is fine. Also some weird extension conflicts unless I turn "AppleEnet, SharedLibraryManager" and others that are needed to run programs. Also no ethernet connection as described.
I did all the software fixes: zapped PRAM, rebuilt desktop, new PRAM battery, fresh OS install, used different hard drive, different RAM, etc. Nothing worked.
I'm thinking logic board (ethernet card?), but any other hardware swap suggestions greatly appreciated. I'd like to fix this thing but not sure where to start swapping components. Any ideas where to start?
Thanks!

Here is a take-apart site with superb illustrations to help you find where things are:
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/PowerBookG3Wallstreet
There is no section for replacing just the ethernet port which suggests the port is on the LB, but I don't have a WS at hand at the moment to check.
Its possible the ethernet jack is loose on the logic board due to repeated stress to an attached cable. The solder joints start to give way. See if you can feel looseness in the jack from the outside. Connect a cable an see if you get intermittent network activity when you gently move the plug in the port. If so, you might be able to get inside and shim up the jack to keep it in contact. Admittedly, this is a temporary fix.
If you are not using your Cardbus slot, you could consider an ethernet adaptor in that format, They're getting hard to find, but I found one that says it works on Mac:
Cardbus Ethernet on Amazon
There are cheaper ones offers but they do not say if the work on Macs. Also this one does not say if it works with OS9.
You have some research ahead of you if you go the cardbus route.

MSI X48C Platinum booting problems

Hello all,
First of all, I tried using the searchfunction multiple times and didn't find anything helpful.
So I hope you guys can try and help me with this problem since it's a real pain in the ass.
I built a new setup using:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300
OCZ Reaper PC3 10666 DDR3 2x2GB
OCZ ModXtream Pro 600W
WD 80GB SATA HDD
XFX 9800GTX+
The system booted fine until it got to the POST-screen with the MSI logo. I googled and figured that the Q8300 was not supported and I had to update the BIOS.
With that being said, I got a replacement CPU (C2D E6600) and tried to boot the system. But I gave me and beep-errorcode; 2 short beeps 6 long beeps, no videosignal
I thought it was either the RAM, videocard or the CPU,
so I replaced the RAM with; DDR2 RAM (Kingston KVR800D2N6/2G)/OCZ PC2 8500 1GB (using the Turbocards for DDR2)
the videocard with: ATI HD 5470
and the CPU with a Pentium 6 630
How many times I tried swapping components, it didn't really matter. The system would still give me these cursed 2 shorts beeps and 6 long beeps.
What I've tried so far;
Clearing the CMOS using: https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/how-to-clear-the-cmos
Removing the CMOS battery
Switching between hardwarecomponents as stated above
Reseating the same memory multiple times
In short:
Errorbeep-code: 2 short beeps and 6 long beeps, no videosignal
Really hope you guys can help me,
Thanks.

Confirm that you tested your Power Supply in another system.
Have you tested the MB outside the case, just resting on a non-conductive surface.

K7N2 & Durons - My Story

Here is my story in full:
I purchased the K7N2 to replace my aging Abit board, and I have a 1.3GHz Duron. I was to give the old board to my wife, and put in it a 700MHz Duron I had lying around. I also purchased a single stick of Apacer 512M PC3200 RAM.
I got the board, put the 1.3GHz Duron and the RAM in it, and set the FSB jumper to 100MHz, and booted it up -- and the onboard diagnostic told me that the CPU was "Damaged or incorrectly installed". So, I tried the 700MHz Duron. This time the onboard diagnostic told me it was a problem with my memory. So, I tried memory from my work machine which as 2x512 PC3200 TwinX Corsair memory -- same error message. I purchased 2x256 Crucial PC2700 RAM, and tried that -- same message. I know both of the processors and all the memory to work perfectly, so after corresponding with MSI tech support, I RMA'd the board back to where I had ordered it (NewEgg), as that was MSI's suggestion.
I received a new board a couple of days later -- and STILL had the same "Damaged RAM or incorrect installation" diagnostic. I knew something HAD to be up -- but MSI claims that Durons work with these boards -- even my old, slow 700MHz and 1.3GHz processors. What to do? I had seen in my varied research around the net that /maybe/ using a faster, more recent processor might work. That seemed to be the only difference between my non-functioning machine and everyone else who has no problems. So, I ordered an Athlon 2500+ Barton-core CPU. It came in this morning.
I installed it and one of my PC2700 Crucial sticks -- and LO AND BEHOLD, it booted up! Even with ALL of my RAM in it, it still worked A-OK, so the problem was apparently with the board's seeming incompatability with the Duron processors!
What gives?!?
Now that I have doubled my investment, I'm still quite happy with the board so far -- but I really wish I would have known about this apparently compatability issue.
Has anyone else noticed this? MSI Support?

I tried and tried and tried to install XP on my new MSI 745 Ultra with a Duron 1.0 Ghz and Kingston PC2700 DDR. Blue screened every time. So I started swapping components left and right. I actually bought two of everything, 745 Ultra, CPUs, memory, etc. so I had spare components to swap. However, my newly purchased components went thru a trickle down effect. One of the new CPUs and video card went into one of my existing machines. Those components where then used for this new machine. Therefore, I had a Duron 1.0 GHz and a Athlon 2100+. When I used the Athlon, XP installed. But when I used the Duron, blue screen. I was determined to figure this out. So I started swapping my 2 memory modules. Then I put them in different DIM slots. Still blue screened. Then I tried pulling my old no name PC2100 DDR memory out of my old machine and tried it. It worked!
I have yet to build my second MSI 745 Ultra machine with my Athlon 2100+ CPU and my Kingston PC2700 DDR. However, assuming it installs correctly, my conclusion is that Duron and anything greater than PC2100 is not compatible with my 745 Ultra and probably not with your K7N2 either.
Hope this helps.

My cd drive won't accept a cd or dvd

My cd drive won't accept a cd or dvd? how do i fix this problem there is no cd or dvd in the drive

A Mac Pro? The Mac Pro has a different type of optical drive (compared to an iMac and most other Macs). It is full size, with a "tray" that comes out where you place the disc, instead of a slot where you insert the disc. It is also a standard component, not a special part like the one in the iMac.
The Mac Pro (before the newest version that's about to go on sale) is designed to make swapping components relatively easy. Apple provides these instructions
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/0/MA919/en_US/Mac_Pro_Early2009_Optical_Dr ive_DIY.pdf
This web page has more info
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/faq/mac-pro-how-to-install-second- optical-drive-bluray.html#mac_pro_optical_drive_instructions
So, you can actually go to "Best Buy" and buy a replacement drive for a Mac Pro.

Photoshop CS5 freezes

Hi,
Have been using PS CS5 since the trial became available. But seems CS5 responds a lot slower than CS4. Sometimes, it just freezes or slow the whole computer down when I tried to open a many-layer file. I had to force quit the application, It's really frustrated because the system responds very slow even I tried to quit PS. Once it's quite, everyting's back to normal. Does anyone have this problem?
Thanks,

Chris Cox wrote:
I'm having the same problem-- and not necessarily many-layered files. It will crash quite often. Sometimes it will be when I click in a text layer, sometimes it will just happen.
Freezes and crashes are 2 very different things.
An analogy:
Freeze: my car stalled and won't restart.
Crash: my car exploded, and there's nothing left but a burn mark on the road.
Yes, if you interpret the words "crash" and "freeze" literally, they *are* two very different things, I will give you that.
An analogy:
Freeze: My water froze in the freezer.
Crash: My plane crashed.
Have a look here, on the wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_(computing)
To save you the trouble, a direct quote:
A crash (or system crash) in computing is a condition where a program (either an application or part of theoperating system) stops performing its expected function and also stops responding to other parts of the system. Often the offending program may simply appear to freeze. If this program is a critical part of the operating system kernel the entire computer may crash.
You might be extra interested in the part that says "Often the offending program [that is, the program that has crashed] may simply appear to freeze."
It appears, then, that the consensus is that the two are not two "very different things".
Now, on to the problem at hand:
Basic problem solving in complex systems suggests that you swap components to isolate the ones that aren't working.
An analogy:
My car won't start. I replace the starter motor. The car now starts. One can assert that the problem likely lies with the starter motor.
Continuing...
IF it were the case that I had font problems, then I wouldn't be able to go back into CS4 and work without problems. In fact, I haven't had any problems with CS4. I do, however, have repeated crash/freeze conditions with CS5, and this isn't always related to working with fonts.
Applying what we learned from the starter motor, this suggests that the problem is not with the fonts, or with anything other than CS5 itself, as the very same program in an earlier version works perfectly well with all of the fonts.
I can certainly try disabling the font previews, but I didn't have to do this with CS4-- so if this is what I'm to do, I'm curious as to why an inferior font-preview-rendering-feature was included with CS5?

IMac won't start up - at all

HI,
I have an iMac G3 slot loading running 9.2. This is in a school setting. When the teacher called me over she reported that it would no longer power on. It looked to me like the power cord was fried(discolored). I replaced the power cord and still no lights, no chime, just a little bit of fan noise(?). Also if I held the power button in for 5 seconds the light flashed once and all went quiet.
I replaced the PRAM battery, still nothing.
I also reset the PMU, still nothing.
I am going to check the "new" PRAM battery I put in to make sure it is good.
I have read a lot of posts about similar issues...so I don't have much hope, but is there anything else to try?
Is it possible that a poor power supply could have fried the iMac?
Thanks,
Stella

The most common cause for the symptoms you describe is a faulty PAV board. This is the component that powers and provides the high voltage needed to run the CRT display. The rest of the iMac is probably fine, but when it does the initial startup hardware self-test, the PAV board does not pass, so the iMac does not start up.
It seems like you did a good job with the troubleshooting. I can't think of anything else to try, short of a major swap-components type of testing.
Removing the casing and working around the back side of the CRT is dangerous - the high voltage remains even if the iMac is unplugged. If you have to pay to get it fixed, it is usually not economical.
EDIT: Actually, one thing, if you have not done so. Try removing the RAM modules and then trying one module at a time, just in case one of them went bad.

Then you start getting to the high end gear with
features like hot swap components. Redundant power
supply. Splitting boxes into redundant hardware
domains etc. These features are insanely expensive in
the sparc world, but pretty much don't exist in the
x86 world...Why such features don't exist is x86 world?
There are a lot of servers based on x86 (Compaq/HP ProLiant, HP Netserver, IBM NETFINITY atd etc.), they have redundant power supplys, hot plug/swap hard drives and other redundant hardware.
I worked few years with Compaq/HP ProLiant servers, they are entry level in pricing, but giving a nice performance and redundancy. Actually, in 3 years of my work, they never failed, exepting hard drives failure and hot swapping them to new ones without work interruption.
x86 based servers can be even up to 8 CPU's and more.
Still largest servers are based and will be based on RISC architecture.

I think its dead for sure. :(

i think my logic board is fried. and the hard drive i think is dead too. the hard drive is making the dreaded clicking no whirrr sound. and when i turn on the ibook the cd drive makes the normal sound sometimes no hard drive sound and it just sits there and where the cpu sits under the modem it gets mondo hot. so being the tinkerer i am i opened it all the way down to the logic board plugged in the battery and keyboard, turned it on and immeditley i touched the cpu and i burned myself. must be a short. i just got a parts ibook(see link) and i plugged in my HD CD drive and keyboard and no hotness. but the mac logo folder ? showed up. the bid states the controllers for the cd and HD drives dont work. but the cd drive made the normal start up sound in it. should i swap my parts over to the other ibook and try and start up from a os9 disk and work with it? i say os9 because the onboard ram is 32mb and i got a 64mb chip. i will post a video on what happens when i try to start up. if photobucket ever loads!

OK, I'll give this a whirl...
Yes, I agree that the original logic board is dead - if you really burned yourself on the CPU. Those puppies get a little warm. However, I'm betting your HD is shot as well. If you swapped components over to the new machine, and you get the "?" folder on the screen, that means that the computer cannot find a startup disk. Try inserting an OS CD-ROM into the drive - the machine should be able to boot from that. Or try holding down the "option" key right after you power on - it should give you a visual menu of boot devices to choose from. Of course, if your HD is shot, it won't show up, but at least that way you'll confirm that the computer itself is actually working the way it's supposed to.
If you have a spare HD, I'd drop it in and boot from an OS CD and do a clean install.

Error in verify and rebuild

I've got an XServe RAID with 14 drives. They are configured as two RAID 5 sets, merged into one in the OS.
The RAID is online, but when I do verify the parity data on one of the sets in raidadmin, it comes back with an error event. When I try to do rebuild parity in raidadmin, this also completes with an error event. Before the rebuild, I tried a repair in diskutil, which reported no errors. I've copied the event messages below. Any idea what's wrong or what I should do to fix it?
(Note: there seems to be a bug in raidadmin that always labels the raid sets as set #1 in the verify and rebuilt events, although the operations are taking place on set #2)

I have the exact same issue here:
over the course of several months there were a variety of drive errors of the kind that should not matter, i.e. amber messages, that were recoverable.
A couple of days ago, one drive failed, and the hotspare took over, was automatically rebuilt. The rebuilding reported that data was lost during the rebuild operation. I think "***!" This is a single drive failure, and the whole point of these being "intelligent" storage sub systems is that they should instantly let me know with a RED alert, if any error happens that requires a hardware component to be replaced, or that for some other reason puts data integrity in danger.
So then I run rebuild parity on both arrays (RAID-50 setup), and even the drive that had no non-recoverable drive failure can't finish the parity rebuilding!
So there I have a single drive die since I last completely reformatted and created the RAID-50 array (both at the Xserve and the Mac OS X level), and now I have to fret about our backups which are stored on this RAID?
This comes utterly out of the blue, and I have to wonder what I'm going to tell my clients about what we can use the Xserve RAID for in the future!
The unit is a bit over two years old, and we had one drive fail previously, and since Tiger redefined the RAID-0 software array, and things were a bit iffy, when that happened, we reformatted and set up everything from scratch.
Now we're back at the same place, again. This isn't what I consider fail-safe storage, and hot-swap components.
On the other hand, if we're supposed to replace drives with each non red alert error, then in addition to the failed drive, I'd have to replace four more, which would mean almost half the drives would have had to be replaced in a bit more than two years. At the cost of Apple's drive modules, that's quite a bit.
Further, most drive manufacturers offer two or three year warranties on the drives, but Apple's Xserve RAID has only a one year warranty.
At this point, I don't know if the Xserve RAID is still a trustworthy backup target. And if not that, then what is?

Help!! PC powered off after 30 minutes of use of newly built system :(

Hello,
I just received my new pc parts yesterday. Installed it all and it ran like a champ long enough to install windows 7. Approx 30-40 minutes. As I was downloading drivers it shut completely off. I went to turn it back on and the fans would come on then go off :(. I was working great and the cpu temp in the bios read 43C so it looked good there when it was working. There are no beep codes also so I am not sure whats going on??
System Specs:
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB
CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX650 V2 650W
Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz
MSI P67A-G43 (B3)
Things I have tried
* Cleared the Cmos from the back of the motherboard. It now turns on with fans running one LED light but no video
* Removing both ram sticks (2x 4gb) and putting each one in seperately
* Switched out video cards and even moved it to the other pci express slot
* Took heat sync off and took cpu out and put it back in to ensure it was seated correctly.
I don't have another power supply or motherboard to test with. Since there are no beep codes I am beginning to think that either the motherboard went out or maybe the power supply?
Anybody have any ideas as to what maybe happening. I greatly appreciate it!!

I had the same problem when I upgraded. In my case it definitely was the power supply. In my effort to figure out the problem by swapping components in and out, the dieing power supply killed 2 P8P67 Pro and 2 2500k, and when I tested with the P67A-GD65, the power supply totally died, but the good thing is that the GD65 survived. Swapped in a 430W to test and everything was perfect. At full load with GTX260, it will draw less than 300W, so your power supply is fine to test.
