Filters applied to multiple dataproviders

Hi
We have a scenario where DP1 is used to render Analysis_Item_1. This is the default view, and everything works on DP1 ... filters included.
However, we also provide a "summarised" view, whereby 5 dataproviders are used to render 5 tables, all in the same template (Analysis_Item_1 is hidden at this point).
My question, is how do I apply the filters that have been set on DP1, to the other dataproviders?
Is this posisble in JavaScript perhaps?
Cheers,
Andrew

Thanks for the tip.
Have you used this command and made it work?
I have tried to play around in a test template, but can't get the command to actually do anything.
On my template I have:
- Analysis_Item_1, using DP1
- Analysis_Item_2, using DP2
- Analysis_Item_3, using DP3
- A filter pane, which is set to affect DP1
- A button, which is configured to use the SET_SELECTION_STATE_BY_BINDING command.
      - I set the Target Data Providers to DP2 and DP3
      - I set the selection binding to Data Provider Selection (DATA_PROVIDER_CHARACTERISTIC)
      - I set the Data Provider Selection Data Provider to DP1
      - I leave the characteristic there as default
Now I can run my template, and I am shown 3 tables, with their different data.
I can filter the first table, as the filter pane is configured to affect DP1.
I then press the APPLY FILTERS button, which is setup to use the above command, expecting the display in the other 2 tables (DP2 & DP3) to change according to the same filter that DP1 has, but nothing changes.
Am I doing something wrong (I reckon I must be).
I have tried other combinations, but nothing seems to work at the moment.
I am really hoping you have some insight for me.
Cheers,
Andrew

Using "Save as" functionality with multiple dataproviders

Is there a way to use the <bi:SAVE_AS> command in a web template to save multiple dataproviders in a single analysis in BEx Portfolio? When I don't specify a dataprovider the command doesn't function.
Thanks,
Jason

Rules applied to multiple cells trigger color changes when any of the cells

"Rules applied to multiple cells trigger color changes when any of the cells meet the rule’s condition." That's what Help says, but when I follow the directions, it doesn't work. This is in Numbers 08.
I have a table where the contents of one column are either "YES" or "NO", depending on formulas using variables from other cells. If YES, I want the fill of that cell and that of two adjacent cells to change from white to green. I select all three cells and use conditional format rules for "text contains:" YES, then choose my fill color. When I return to the table and introduce values for the variables that trigger the rule, only the cell in the YES/NO column changes to green; the other two remain white.
While I am spreadsheet challenged, I usually can follow directions as plain as those in Help, but it's not working. I couldn't find anything in the discussions after an hour of searching. Is this a known problem or am I just stupid?

For what it's worth, that's the way I read that line in the User Guide as well. What it actually appears to mean, though is 'Rules applied to multiple cells apply independently to each of the cells."
Here's a workaround for your three adjacent columns. Long, but fairly simple steps.
Add a second table to the sheet (Table 2).
Resize the second table to one column wide and as many rows as you want to apply the conditional format to.
Set the width of the column to the same width as the three columns you want to highlight, and the row height(s) to match the rows.
Format to table to have NO Header or Footer row or column.
Use the Wrap Inspector to uncheck "Object causes wrap"
In the first top cell of Table 2, enter an = sign, then Click on Table 1 in the sidebar, Click on the first cell that will hold YES or NO.
Fill the formula down the rest of Table 2.
With all cells in Table 2 selected, use the Cell Format inspector to set the 'text contains yes' rule and the conditional fill colour for these cells.
Test the conditional formating by introducing values into Table 1.
Click on Table 1 in the sidebar, then use the Table inspector to set Cell Fill to 'none'.
Click on Table 2 in the sidebar, then drag that table onto table 1 aligning it to cover the cells in which the conditional formating is to appear.
When positioned (and still selected), go to the Arrange menu and Send Backward to move Table 2 behind the (transparent) cells in Table 1.
With Table 2 still selected, click on the Cell Borders color well and set the Opacity of the borders to 0%.
Click the Text inspector and set the Text colour Opacity for Table 2 to 0%.

Is there a way to sync my photos with filters applied to them?

So, I tried using my ipod touch 5G's camera tonight and took some photos with filters (not applying them after, but taking the actual photo with the filter). But when I tried to sync them to my macbook pro with Image Capture (I'm running Mountain Lion), it was only showing the normal photos. There are no filters applied to the ones that are showing up. I'd like to import the filtered versions, but how can I do this?
Thanks. c:

You have to email them. When you take a photos, even using the filter first, the original photos (not filters) is the one that goes to your iPod's Camera Roll album and only the Camera Roll album photos get imported by image capture.
A third-party program like TouchCopy or Phone View might also work

Can numbers open and view excel files with filters applied?

Hi - I don't currently have iWork but was considering purchasing it. I frequently get sent excel files from work (which I view on my iPad 3) that have got filters in the column headings applied and I need to be able to change the dropdown values in the headings to see different cuts of the data in the spreadsheet. Does anyone know if the current version of Numbers allows users to do this?

Numbers has a row filtering feature, but it doesn't involve the Header or any dropdown menus. In Numbers row filtering is controlled from the Reorganize Panel which is activated from the Toolbar. Given this, I don't think an imported Excel document will have the filtering feature active. Hopefully someone who uses both Execl and Numbers will weigh in.

Row-level Security Filters applied to Columns and Tables only? no Areas?

Good day all,
Just quick question (obiee 10.3.3.2) - Is there a way to edit row-level security using Whole subject areas (instead of bringing in the individual Fact tables and applying filters by copying/pasting them).
Follow up question - if I have nested facts in presentation layer (ones preceding with "-" - do I specifically add them to conditions, or would they be inherited by only including parent fact)?
Thanks!

I'm not sure how that would help; by using the Faculty_ID Session Variable I can identify the CRN and Term of all courses a faculty member is teaching. But I don't think that has to do with the problem I am having?

Filters applied, called twice sometimes ...

Hi,
I have a small problem which give me headhache...
I'm using a filter to make pre (authentification) and post processing (output the webpage using a XSL transformation).
skeleton :
... doFilter ...
//authentification
chain.doFilter()
//transformation and display
When i'm aslink for a webpage (with a visitor account) there is no problem .., the webpage is displayed properly and the filter is called once ! perfect !
but after my authentification (put a variable containing information onto the session with
"sessionMgr.setSessionUser(session, user);") when I call the same webpage as before the webpage is displayed properly (that's a good point) but I saw in the tomcat console that after the end of the filter , the filter is called again with the same request or null sometimes .... GRRRRR
I read John Hunter article about filters and in its clickstream exampl is using this tips :
// Ensure that filter is only applied once per request.
if (request.getAttribute(FILTER_APPLIED) == null) {
request.setAttribute(FILTER_APPLIED, Boolean.TRUE);
HttpSession session = ((HttpServletRequest)request).getSession();
Clickstream stream = (Clickstream)session.getAttribute("clickstream");
stream.addRequest(((HttpServletRequest)request));
at the start of this filter ...
can I have more explanation about this stuff ...
I really don't understand why this happened ... it seems linked to the session management but I have no proof ...
I find out hard to debug and hard to explain so
THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR SUPPORT :)
see ya
Fran�ois (french guy so sorry for the english)

hi there,
well your problem is interesting........
the solution that you have suggested in your problem regarding the use of FILTER_APPLIED, can be used but not as a long term solution.........
well one thing i can tell you that as i was also facing the same problem of filter called twice, let me explain you the basic behaviour of the filter that a filter is called just before processing any request and again before giving response back to the particulare request........
the next thing i can tell you is from your web.xml it is quite clear that you are mapping each request coming from dispatcher (your servlet) to your filter.......that means any request that points to dispatcher will go to the filter first and then to the actual servlet.
one more thing you are loading the servlet on startup........
just try to remove that code and then check..............
because what happens in this case is when you start your application at that time your servlet will be loaded.........check whether the filter is called at that time or not......i think it must be called.......
and when again a request will come the filter will be called..........this could be possible reasons your filter is called two times.........just try to delete the load on startup line from your web.xml for a while and then check..........

Photos with noise reduction filters applied shows too much noise in preview mode

The Noise Reduction filters do an impressive job in Lightroom, but the preview of photos when zoomed out is sometimes poor.
This becomes especially visible on photos with a high amount of noise reduction applied.
When zooming in to 1:1 I see that the noise reduction works as it should. Also when exporting the images the noise is removed as it should.
I wish the non-zoomed preview inside Lightroom was able to show the image with the noise reduction applied more correctly than in version 3.4.
I'm using Lightroom 3.4 64-bit in Windows 7.
See samples of image with heavy noise reduction applied in 1:1 screen shot, and then a unzoomed screen shot of the same part of the image. As you can see the unzoomed preview contains much more noise than the zoomed image does.

I've had to encode with no noise reduction which is a shame, but have to get this DVD done.
Any ideas for the next one?
Thanks
Mark

Apply to Multiple Images in Filmstrip as in Grid

I would like to see multiple images selected in filmstrip at bottom in loupe view mode act the same way as they do in grid mode. I can't understand the purpose the way it is now??? If I select multiple images in the filmstrip while in loupe view and add keywords, make quick develop changes, flag, unflag, etc.., I want it applied to all images selected. It's a pain to have to switch back to grid view and then make changes to all images that way. It should work the same for both, meaning apply to all images selected.
Thanks for listening-
Scott

I agree with you fully Scott.
Lee: If the filmstrip isn't visible, then we wouldn't be able to select multiple images from there anyway so this would be a moot point. Remember, Scott and I want to use the images selected in the filmstrip and in order to do so, you can safely assume that we know how to make it visible when we need it to be.
Don: I can live with multiple selections in the filmstrip not applying in Develop mode, but IMO it would be more logical to have the filmstrip operate the same way as grid mode when using the Library Module, in fact, why even allow multiple selects in the filmstrip if I can't make changes to the files that I have knowingly selected?
It is helpful to be able to select multiple files in the filmstrip and have metadata apply to all of the selected files while NOT in grid mode because sometimes I need to zoom into an image to check that the batch keywords that I have just typed in actually do apply to a particular image. It saves a step not having to go back to grid mode to apply to the whole batch.

Keywords won't Apply to Multiple Images

I just bought a new iMac and have transitioned to Mavericks and Aperture 3.5.1. I just noticed that I can't seem to apply keywords to multiple images. When I select a number of images (usind click then shift-click on the last, or command-click on several), and then drag a keyword onto the selected images, the keyword only appears on one of the images. I've looked for some setting that needs to be changed, but can't find anythiing. Any ideas? Anyone else experienced this?
Thanks

Do you have Primary Only set?

Conditional formatting / "Text is" applied to multiple values?

Hello there,
Is there a way of making the "Text is" rule to apply to different values?
Example:
Text is: apples, oranges
Return text color red
I keep asking myself if it's all synthax problem from my side… Should I use commas, apostrophes, etc.?
Thanks!

Mariana,
you can use a shader table and one other table to facilitate grouping words into the the same (or multiple) color(s).
In this image there are three tables. The top left table contains your data. In column A I entered some words.
In the second table (top right, and named "WordList") I entered a single entry for each word and what color I wanted the corresponding shading to be. These are just words which I will match with conditional formatting.
The third table is the "shader" table. In this table I apply the conditional formatting as shown. Once the shader table is complete you can use the menu item "Arrange > Send to Back" then slide the table under the top left table.
The formula you can use in the shader table is (be sure you use the same table names):
A1=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(Data :: A1, WordList :: A:B, 2, 0), "")
now select A1 and fill down as needed.
You can enter words and colors as needed in the "WordList" table

Transitions applied to multiple video tracks

Is there a way to apply a transition, such as a cross disolve, to multiple video tracks by only placing it on the top track and having it applied to the others below it rather than duplicating it on each track below?
For example: Say I have 3 video tracks that all start at the same time. Can I apply only ONE cross disolve somehow and have it affect all 3 tracks so they disolve at the same time? Or do I have to have 3 separate copies of the transition?

If the edits are lined up you can command click to select them together and apply the transition. A separate transition gets applied to each track. If you're going to black or to a single piece of video you can also add a transition to a slug or the video on a higher track to go to that.

How to use one Filter Pane to multiple Dataproviders

Hi Experts.
i have checked the threads on this but i did not get correct solution.
we have issue in using single Filter pane web item in WAD for three different dataproviders ( three dataproviders have same free charecteristics and variable) charecteristics in row and keyfigures are different.
thanks in advance.
Regards
Raj.

Hi Gill,
Thanks for your Quick responce.
when we use the single filter pane, filter conditions are working for only first dataprovider (since data binding is to dataprovider 1. in affterted dataproviders i selected dataprovider 2 and 3, but filter pane is not active for other two dataproviders in tabs.
thanks in advance.
Any inputs please....
Regards,
Raj.

Library Filters: Filter for multiple values in a single column and Wildcards

If you have a multi-value column in a library, can you filter to show only results where two (or more) specific values (terms) are applied? E.g. Year 2014 and Month January? Seems this would be particularly useful for Enterprise Keywords columns.
Similarly, is there any way to filter on one value OR another value in a single column (e.g. Document Type Memo OR Fax)?
Any way to use wildcards in searches (would be REALLY useful in the Title and Name columns when naming conventions have been followed).
I'm guessing the answer is going to be 'move to SharePoint 2013' - if that is the case, please confirm whether all the scenarios mentioned above are catered for.

Thanks for your replies !
Is there any other way to achieve this ?
There is 1 InfoObject which has 2 fields Employee and Department.
Employee     Department
001                A
001                B
001                C
In the report there should be 1 row for Employee 001 with all the Departments displayed in the same cell separated by commas.
Can this be done in the backend through a ABAP code?

Can you have multiple dataproviders in a default web template?

I was working on some changes in our BW web applications to 'shut down' certain reports if we determined there was a particular data issue (e.g. maybe aggregates not available for a large cube, as an example). I have already accomplished this in our 'cockpits' by adding a hidden dropdown box that is fed from a query against a master data InfoObject -- basically a way of flagging whether a particular area should be 'down' or not. This has worked well for us.
My next goal was to extend this a little further and actually set up a way to designate that a particular cube should not be available. Then when someone kicks off a web report (could be off a menu or even a bookmarked report..), I would again make template changes to check to see if the cube used in the report is flagged. If so, then redirect the user to a message page instead of executing the query. This would help us during critical times to keep users out of a problem area.
Again, I can make this work well in many custom template situations we have. The problem I am now encountering is with the standard template itself (Note: I am referring to our copy of 0QUERY_TEMPLATE that is designated as the default).
I have added a second dataprovider to this std template that points to my query against the InfoObject data. This dataprovider is linked to the dropdown box that is hidden. The standard template already has dataprovider DP that is not qualified with a query name. If you execute a query from BEx and launch it to the web, it builds a URL and passes in QUERY=xxxxxxx and INFOCUBE=yyyyyy. Now because there are 2 dataproviders, this is essentially overlaying not only the DP info, but also my new 2nd dataprovider. So the added dropdown pointing to a particular characteristic in the query is no longer valid (it thinks it should be using the QUERY value now).
In cases where I can first control the URL that a user executes, I would do SET_DATA_PROVIDER_1, 2, etc... and pass in INFOCUBE_1, 2.., QUERY_1, 2,... -- this is not a problem. But how can I make the standard query-to-web functionality still work once a 2nd dataprovider has been added to a default template? I would appreciate any thoughts on this.
Thanks, Jody

Thanks Heike... I was hoping that there might be some way I couldn't think of & still only use 1 template here. But as you suggested, I can put the CHANGE_TEMPLATE command in our existing 0QUERY_TEMPLATE copy and then make a new copy for it to branch to -- making sure that my new dataprovider gets filled in with its appropriate query/cube. This at least minimizes impact by not having to change everything we have that references our 0QUERY_TEMPLATE copy through menus, JavaScript, favorites, etc.
I am familiar with the 'flicker' effect when we have used the CHANGE_TEMPLATE in the past (bringing up 'Info' for a query in a new window while maintaining the state of the report in the existing window). In this case, since the report is being created in a new window, it really isn't noticeable at all unless you watch the browser status or the URL command. Thanks for the information...
Jody
