Feature Request - custom crop default & making canvas larger

Please make lightroom quicker for people who use 8x10 instead of the original proportions from your camera. I am aware of the trick to copy and paste or sync with crop, however if lightroom could have a way to setup at a default custom crop so it loads up that way when first used, and keeps the crop as the default from one photo to the next that would be great!
It would also be nice if when cropping and you need to make the canvas larger and go outside of the original dimensions of the photo that lightroom does this automatically. Right now I only know to use the scaling feature, it would be much quicker to just add this logic to lightroom so it scales outside of the photo when you are cropping if thats what you would like it to do.
Thank you!

Brett I dont think you understand my question. theres two parts to it.
When you crop and select the aspect ratio theres no way to make this a default, so each time when i get to a new image i need to select 8x10 again. if 8x10 was made to be my default lightroom would not crop out some of the pixels unless I choose the crop tool and use the crop tool. I am just looking for lightroom to be faster its annoying how it defaults to the original image dimensions for the crop tool each time you select the crop tool you have to change the crop ratio.
The second request is one that rawshooter used to do automatically when you use the crop tool you can easily crop outside of the dimensions of the photo, thus making the canvas larger. this gives you an image that you can place into photoshop and fill the empty spots, this helps change the composition of the image if shot with the model in the center you can easily move the model with a crop and by filling the background in the new empty space especially easy with a simple background. I hope this helps, its easier to do more with lightroom. i do it right now with the scale feature in lightroom, but it would be faster if lightroom did it automatically if you pull the crop tool outside of the image area. Thank you!

Feature Request: Custom uninstaller which executes actionscript function on uninstall

Hi,
My name is Ronald Kamp and I'm an IT Consultant at iDA MediaFoundry Belgium.
I would like to request a feature. At the moment I have an application that writes a file to the app-storage of my application, to the user's documents and settings folder and one value to the Encrypted Local Store. On uninstall, I would like to remove all of these files so that all links to the application are removed.
Would it be possible to add a feature to the AIR SDK that will execute a certain piece of actionscript so that all of these files are removed? Of course, it would be possible to create an installer with InstallAnywhere but then we would lose all of the checks that are performed with the standard AIR installer and uninstaller.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Ronald Kamp

Hi Ronald,
Thank you for the feature request feedback. I agree, having this functionality would be great. If you get a chance, I'd like to recommend voting for both of these ideas:
Custom hook on AIR application uninstall
Deleting local data store while unistall
You might also be able to work around this now by creating a native installer and having it sub launch your AIR installer. More details about this can be found on our redistribution instructions, and you can sign up for the licensing needed on our runtime distribution page.
Thanks,
Chris

Feature Request - Iphoto cropping issue

I don't know how to request features officially, but I've seen a few of these threads on this forum. If someone knows how to make an official request, please let me know.
I am a professional photographer who has to edit thousands of photographs at a time. For the straightening and cropping portion of my workflow, I use iPhoto. Anytime I switch between cropping and straightening from one photograph to the next, the size constrain dropdown box on the cropping tool gets reset, and I have to choose 4x6 again. Having to reset this dropdown to 4x6 thousands of times is very time consuming.
If I crop one photograph at 4x6 and move to the next, it stays at 4x6. If I crop the first, move on and straighten the second, I then have to choose 4x6 again in the cropping tool.
Whoever has the ability to make this happen, PLEASE give me an option of choosing a default cropping constraint of 4x6 or 8x10 or whatever and have it stay the size I choose until I change it. Not having the crop tool stay at whatever size I choose when editing photographs is very, very tedious.

I appreciate your point, but $100 software for straightening and cropping photographs is overkill, especially considering iPhoto had the capability to do what I'm asking three versions ago and it was removed.
I do my editing in other programs and don't wish to pay for something when I won't use 98% of it.

ESS Leave Request - Customer fields default function not working

Hi,
a. SAP version being discussed
SAP ECC6.0
EP7.0
ESS/MSS
b. Here is the scenario
1. We are using ESS Leave Request application for employees to request leave. We are using the standard web dynpro java leave request application delivered by SAP.
2. Lately there has been a need to provide a customer field on the request form which will have a calculated value showing up when the employee opens the request
3.We used one customer field called customer01 as per configuration steps.
4. This field appears on the request form when it is opened.
5. Our need is to display a value in that field when the form is opened.
6. SAP/s documentation states that we can use BADI PT_ABS_ARQ to default a value to this field on the form. This value is calculated during runtime dynamically.
7. We have used the method IF_EX_PT_ABS_REQ~SIMULATE_VIA_BLOP for this purpose
8. After activating and coding this implementation, the system does not default anything on the request form when it is opened up.
9. Once the employee hits the review button, this field gets its defaulted value but this is not what we want. We want the system to display this when the form is OPENED, that means at the prepare stage. For this field to appear after hitting the review button is meaningless as the employee needs to make a decision based on the value in this field before hitting the review button.
It almost seems like this BADI is called when the review button is hit and not when the form is opened up. We may be wrong and missing something obvious which one of you can immediately point out, Hence this post.
10. I did go thru the forum at great length and seen that there has been discusion surrounding the need to populate R3 from a value entered into this field. My problem is different wherein, I wish to populate this upfront as display information when the form is opened and then send it back to R3, once the employee submits the request.
Would be grateful if anybody on this forum could point me in the right direction.
Thank you,
Rajesh

Please, can I take this question a little further.
Is it possible to add more fields to the leave request form on the ESS portal. For example, our customer wants additional fields like reason for leave, contact residential and telephone number during leave, Require leave entitlements (Yes/No).
Would appreciate if a reply can be given on if it is possible or not and what to be done if it is possible.
Cheers

Feature Request - Custom Brushes

Am I alone in thinking Fireworks is lacking a custom brush feature?
It's one of the only reasons I feel like I need to go into Photoshop these days.
Any word on features in CS5? This would be a definite upgrade for me if so.

I think it's an excellent idea and have been hoping that this would be incorporated into any new version of Fireworks.

Feature Request: Custom Rule

Hi,
I like to see a new feature in Adobe Kuler. Kuler allows us to create custom color shemes ignoring the rules such as analogous, monochromatic, triad etc. But once we swtich to Custom rule, all handles will start to move freely and there is no option available to lock the handles and then rotate to define more schemes based on the same custom rule. It will be even better if we can save a particular rule as we save the color schemes.

+1 for this. There should be a lock next to the colorwheel which would freeze or unfreeze the position of the arms so that one could first set the color positions in custom-mode, then click the lock and be able to rotate the entire setup (rule) around the colorwheel, as is possible with the other modes.

Two feature requests (custom graphic placeholders & variables)

After building several pages document templates, there are two features that would be a big help.
First, I created some graphical text boxes similar to those used in many manuals. The color coded box contains placeholder text and an icon to indicate note type. It would be great if I could define and manage these similar to pages. Allow the user to insert a warning box, an informational note, etc. These items would be self contained graphics with placeholder text, etc. User inserts one, modifies the text and then moves it into place. Each template should support an unlimited number of these document specific graphical objects.
Second, There needs to be a generalized variable scheme similar to the new address book feature. If I insert a page type, I might want to carry the section title or other info as one or more variables so that they can appear in later headers, footnotes, etc. for that section. Using the Business:Meeting template as an example. If I add a agenda page, it would be nice to automatically carry the meeting date and topic in the header of each additional page of agenda. Currently, the user would have to type/format info in page 1 of agenda and remember to do it in the header of agenda page 2 if the agenda failed to fit on a single page. If this info was in variables, I could define/format it for use the the header except for the first page so that it would automatically appear if the agenda ran long.
Our company has begun using Pages '06 for documents that must be repeatedly repurposed for customer email, web page spec sheets, quotes, etc. since the templates can simply be saved as pages documents on the Admin. Assist.'s machine and stored as PDFs in a public area. The admin can easily keep both locations current as specs change, etc.

Hello delemex,
welcome to the Pages Discussions. But if you want to reach the developers you should send them a notice about your thoughts. Here we are all users and we try to help each other to solve problems (alright, sometimes we discuss features, too).

SG300 and SG500 Feature Request

There are two features I would like to see added to the 300 and 500 series to make them even more useful in small business deployments.
1. The ability for the switches to act as DNS forwarders and to respond with entries in the host table to DNS requests when in layer 3 mode. It looks like most of the required components for this are already on the switches. They have the ability currently to enable DNS, specify a local domain name and have a host table. The only thing left is to enable the switch to work as a DNS forwarder and respond with static host entries added to the host table. I would envision the controls having two components: 1. A checkbox to "Allow Switch to respond as a DNS proxy." and 2. A check box on the services page to allow "DNS Queries."
This would be a nice benefit for small businesses that have the router running in layer 3 mode that don't have an on-site dns server. This feature is also important because several of the Small Business Series Routers only have the dns forwarder component and don't have a local dns host table that will return requests like: hostname.localnet.
2. The ability to to some basic policy routing and protocol binding in layer 3 mode. We have some deployments where we would like to do some basic policy routing at the switch instead of waiting until the the traffic reaches a router or firewall.
Thanks Cisco Small Business for reading over these feature requests, and thanks for making great small business switches!

When dragging an image onto a fresh canvas, the resizing feature presnaps the image into the canvas size. I can confirm that this has not happened to me in previous projects. I've also tested this problem by making a new larger document size and dragging

When dragging an image onto a fresh canvas, the resizing feature presnaps the image into the canvas size. I can confirm that this has not happened to me in previous projects. I've also tested this problem by making a new larger document size and dragging in the same render. It snaps again. I don't want to re-size from the canvas dimensions, I want to resize from the render's original dimensions.

Feature request: extra Include directive in default pacman.conf

Since arch's move to systemd, cluster administration requires less and less use of sed. In particular, systemctl, timedatectl, /etc/sysctl.d, /etc/modules-load.d, /etc/hostname, /etc/vconsole.conf, etc. make scripting configuration changes both simpler more robust than the old approach of editing multi-purpose files such as /etc/rc.conf.
An exception to this trend is pacman.conf, which has non-trivial default contents that almost certainly needs to be customized (e.g., to enable multilib and local repositories). These changes would be much simpler if the default pacman.conf included a line such as:
Include = /etc/pacman.d/conf/*.conf
Currently my scripts use sed to insert this line at the end of the [options] section. (Unfortunately "Include = /etc/pacman.d/*.conf" doesn't work because there's sometimes a gpg.conf file in /etc/pacman.d, but maybe that could be fixed.)
I don't know if the forum is the right place for feature requests, but I wanted to get people's reactions. If people think it's a good idea I can add it as a feature request to the bug tracker.
There are several other pieces of low-hanging fruit where I'd like to see arch decrease the complexity scripting configuration (e.g., an unattended pacman-key --populate and easier customization of mkinitcpio.conf), but I figured I'd start with the simplest and gauge people's reactions.

Custom Toolbar Buttons - built from my SQL - feature request

I would like to request a feature to be added to SQL Developer. I'm on EA, v 4.0.0.12. I would like to be able to create edit and add custom toolbar buttons.
I do have some of my SQL saved as Snippets. As long as I want to keep the Snippets pane open, I can create and edit snipped categories, add snippets to custom categories, and drag'n'drop a snippet from the snippet pane onto a SQL Worksheet (fills in with the SQL). This all works, although giving up "canvas workspace" for the snippets pane is a bit of an expense.
It would be cool to be able to create, edit and place and remove custom buttons on the Toolbar with SQL I like to (re)use often.

Feature Request | Allow custom metadata per table/column to be stored

Someone please correct me if there's already a feature that allows this...
I'd like to see a feature where you can define a set of metadata that can be stored per table / column, and perhaps a trigger that updates that metadata.
As a use case, it is sometimes necessary to find out how many records exist in a table, and the typical way of doing this is by running a statement like select count(*) from example_table;. With a large table, this statement might take a long time though, and certainly has overhead associated with it. If this is something that's done on a regular basis, like maybe even once every minute, wouldn't it be much better to store this number as metadata for the table that can be updated on inserts and deletes and then can be queried? It might involve extra overhead on an insert or delete statement to add to or subtract from this number, but then for some applications the benefit of getting the count quickly might outweigh the extra overhead.
Another use case is finding a minimum or maximum out of a table. Say you store a date and you need to find the max value for some feature in your application; with a large table, and especially if its a date with accuracy to the millisecond where an index wouldn't help much because most values are unique, it can take quite a bit of time and overhead to find that max value. If you could define for that column that you'd like to store the max value in metadata, and could query it, it would be very quick to get the info. The added overhead in this scenario would be on insert, update or especially on delete, the value would have to be updated. But in some applications, if you don't expect alot of deletes or updates on this column, it might be worth the added overhead to be able to quickly find the max value for this column.
I know you could probably make a separate table to store such info, and write triggers to keep it up to date, but why not have a built in feature in Oracle that manages it all for you? When you create a table, you could define with the column definition something like 'METADATA MAX' and it will store the max value of that column in metadata for you, etc.
I know that the overhead of this feature wouldn't be good for most circumstances, but there certainly are those cases where it would be hugely beneficial and the overhead wouldn't matter so much.
Any thoughts?
Can this be submitted as a feature request? Am I asking in the right place?
(p.s. while you're at it, make a feature to mimic IDENTITY columns from SQL Server!)

I don't think what you mentioned is exactly what I was talking about. There's no min_value or max_value in the dba_tab_columns table; there's only high_value and low_value, and they are stored in binary. And I believe to be accurate in the use cases that I suggested, you would have to analyze the table after every insert/update/delete. So no, that's not the same feature I've asked for, although I appreciate the feedback.
Also, the num_rows in dba_tables relies on the table being analyzed too, so for a table that stores temporary date to be processed where you want to know the size of the queue every few seconds, it wouldn't make sense to analyze the whole table every few seconds when all you want is a count of the records, and it's also inefficient to use the COUNT function with every query when it would be much faster to store the count in some metadata form that is updated with every insert or delete (adding to a count and subtracting from a count with each insert/delete is WAY faster than analyzing the table and letting it literally recount the entire table every time).
So again, while I appreciate the feedback, I don't think what you mentioned addresses either of the use cases I gave. I'm talking about a different kind of user defined metadata that could be stored per table/column with rules to govern how it is updated. Not you standard metadata that requires an analyze and isn't real time. I also only gave a few use cases, but the feature I'm really looking for is the ability for users to define many different types of custom metadata even maybe based on their own logic.
Again, this feature could be implemented right now by creating a USERMETADATA table for every standard table you have, and then using triggers to populate the info you want at the table level and column level, but why do that when it could be built in?
Also, I don't really agree that having to create a trigger/sequence for every table instead of setting a column as IDENTITY is better. It's cumbersome. Why not build these commonly used features in? It can create a trigger/sequence behind the scenes for all I care, but why not at least let someone mark a column as IDENTITY (or use whatever other term you want) at the time of table creation and let it do everything for them. But that's off-topic; I meant it for more of a side comment, but should really have a separate post about it.

Moving default Applications to subfolders in Lion? Feature request?

I like to keep my Applications folder tidy. I put music apps in a "Music" folder, apps for communicating in a "Communications" folder, useful stuff in "Utilities", etc. It makes it easy to find things. But Apple seems to have hijacked my Applications folder making my organization efforts impossible.
Installing Lion broke my ability to organize. It will no longer let me move apps like FaceTime and iChat out of the top level Applications folder into subfolders. I don't use most of these very often, and I want to hide them so I don't have to sort through a hundred apps every time I want to find something quickly.
I wish I could turn off this behavior which disables my ability to move applications. When I try to put them into subfolders, it just copies the folder instead of moving it and I can't delete the top level folder after it copies to the subfolder.
This is driving my crazy. One of the reasons I prefer Mac OS to Windows and recently switched back to Mac is that I like to be able to organize my stuff the way I want it. What really bugs me is that I used to be able to do this with Snow Leopard.
This and this alone makes me regret buying Lion.
Maybe this is a feature request...
Is there any way around this that isn't going to be a total nightmare during patching?

Thanks for the reply, RodneyW.
Yes, what you say is true and might satisfy some, but I actually kind of hate Launchpad. I even disabled it's trackpad shortcut I dislike it so much. It's too IOS-lke, which I find difficult to rearrange, as well. I just tried it again following your post, but I still think it's annoying and hard to work with.
I'm looking for a fix or workaround within Finder. I just want the old Finder-Applications-folder functionality back.

Default CSS classes (feature request)

Hi, there is one feature request I would like to ask for,
When working with templates/themes. The default template is CSS based on classes. Could it be possible to have default classes defined?
It's just that when working with PL/SQL Regions and HTP/HTF packages, the output is very far from the theme default look. Which leads to alot of going into theme definitions, copying the CLASS="tXXxxxx" string and using it in the code.
But if default HTML tags would be overloaded (H1,H2... [table], TH, TD TR.. and so on. It would make the owa code much prettier right out of the box.
Regards
Oli

Hello,
That is not going to happen for most themes.
What your asking is for us to arbitrarily say what a certain tag is going to look like lets take <th> for instance, but how and where you or me might use a <th> might be totally different from how someone else use's a <th>
Someone might be depending on having the default styles applied and would just have to reoverride the style. We try to be very specific with how classes are applied so as to give people the most options and control over the final look and feel.
