Freedom to choose the type of chart by end user

Hello everyone,
Is it possible in SAP Business Objects Dashboards 4.1 to provide end user the freedom to choose the type of chart to display a set of data?
For example, I have a universe which contains employee data. It contains the dimensions Employee Id, Employee Name, Contact number, Date of joining, Salary and measures Total number of employees , tax returns.
I have to create a chart which displays number of employees according to salary range.
Now, can I give the end users freedom so that they can view the data in pie chart, bar graph, area chart or line chart according to their preference?
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Nalin Dwivedi

dynamic visibility options with selectors is definitely an option but the process is very lengthy and time consuming. For example, if I want user to select from pie chart, column chart, area chart, line chart and bubble chart, I would have to configure every one of these charts individually.
I was just wondering if there is any direct option to include a selector which can manipulate the chart type also. If that kind of functionality is not present, then I would have to go with dynamic visibility options.

Windows 8 acrobat pro xi cannon pixma 8220 not letting me choose the type of scan

I have scanned documents before with no problem, but today, when I choose Create, From Scanner, it grays out all of the choices except Custom Scan. I want to do a black and white document. Anyone have any ideas what I need to do? Nothing has changed since the last time I used this setup. I have rebooted both the computer and the printer/scanner. The printer/scanner shows up in Device Manager as the default.

This happens when your scanner is set to use WIA drivers. What scanner is listed in the "Scanner" drop down when you click on "Custom Scan"?
Thanks

Choosing the type of data valid for caching

During discussions with other members of our team, we have been questioning what objects we should and shouldn't cache.
     One suggestion has been to cache account details whilst they are used (like a user session) and then either remove or let the objects expire from the cache. This would allow system components to access the object without having to pass the object around.
     To me, this isn't the sort of data that is traditionally cached but I'd be interested to hear other views. Coherence does seem to allow the boundaries to be pushed.

Hi Mike,
     Coherence is commonly used for a number of scenarios:
     1) The most obvious, data caching (near cache)
     2) Metadata and security information (replicated cache)
     3) Session management (near cache)
     4) Messaging and queueing (distributed cache)
     Coherence is very well suited for most situations that involve sharing data between cluster members or communicating between members. Pretty much any scenario outside of bulk video streaming (though people do ask about that occasionally).
     In your situation, Coherence makes data sharing extremely simple, which is a further benefit (no need for RMI, etc).
     The decision is based on whether it is cheaper to pull data from cache than from an external data source. The answer is almost always yes, for two reasons: (1) cached data is very efficient to manage and access and (2) the application tier is very inexpensive (cost-wise) in terms of capital and recurring expenses relative to the back-end tier(s).

Why can't I CHOOSE the channels I receive?

My parents pay far less for DISH and get more channels. The only reason I keep AT&T is because I need reliable internet. I'm frustrated with a lot of channels with NOTHING to watch. This is compounded by the fact that I get multiple Spanish language channels (not just local broadcast) and I don't speak Spanish and I get multiple sports channels and I don't watch sports--well I will watch the Olympics. I also don't watch cartoons and there's lots of those available to me. Most of my TV watching is local broadcast or PBS. I'd love to get BBC or WGN without paying extra. I would gladly drop all the Spanish, sports and cartoons to get some intelligent adult TV that's in a language I speak, that doesn't include men bashing each other's skulls and doesn't make me lose IQ points. Why can't we choose the type of service we want instead of just getting one the choices we can afford from AT&T's cookie cutter products?

What you are describing is called "a la carte service" and has been debated for years if not decades. The main reason you can't pick and choose channels has to do with how the channels themselves make money. For the most part, each one cuts a deal with each TV service (e.g. Xfinity, DirecTV, U-Verse, Dish, Time Warner Cable) where the service pays the channel a certain amount for each household capable of viewing it (usually less than 50 cents, but ESPN charges something like $5). Note two important factors here: (a) it is the TV services that are paying the channels, and not the other way around; (b) it is based on how many people can view a channel, and not how many people actually do. With "packages," a lot of channels that very few people would watch are grouped together with the more popular channels, and the additional cost of carrying these channels is offset somewhat by the fact that the channels do not have to charge as much as they otherwise would because of the number of households that can watch the channel, most of which never will. If you changed this, and made everything a la carte, then most channels - including the popular ones - would have to charge more in order for you to view them. Want BBC America? $3/month, thank you very much. That $5/month for ESPN? More like $10. Also remember that the service itself has to add to these costs so it can pay for providing the service (e.g. buying and sending out the cable boxes).

Clarity in the Type of the Projects

Hi Guys,
I was not cleared by choosing the type of the Project - I mean by selecting Implementation or Upgrade or Support or Template Projects . where we could see the difference in Technically and Functionally. I have seen the Tabs for Implementation - Upgrade - Template there is no difference.
If everything is appearing the same - then what is the mean of choose the type of the Project , where does this really get affect or impacts.
Please make me clear Guys
Thanks in Advance.

Hi
I think you need to read this
The project types delivered with the SAP Solution Manager allow you to differentiate between different types of projects. You can use the SAP Solution Manager to create the following projects:
Implementation Project*
Project to implement business processes in an SAP landscape.
Create a project structure from the business processes. You can either create a new project structure, or base it on one of the following:
One or more user or partner templates
An existing project
Scenarios and configuration structures delivered by SAP
An existing production solution landscape
Template Project
A project to create a template.
A template makes your project structure, or parts of it, with its assigned objects (documentation, test cases, IMG activities), available to other projects.
You can lock templates, completely or partially, against changes when they are used in other projects. To use templates in other systems, transport them.
Template projects are especially suited to SAP partner solutions or global rollout.
Upgrade Project
A project to upgrade existing systems.
In an upgrade project you can:
○       Upgrade customizing: Upgrade existing functions
○       and/or
○       Delta customizing: Copy additional functions
Optimization project
A project to optimize the flow of business processes, or the use of a software solution.
You can use optimization projects, for example, in SAP Services.
Safeguarding project
A project to resolve a critical situation in the implementation or use of an SAP solution.
Safeguarding projects show the reasons for a critical situation and coordinate the steps required to resolve the problems.
Maintenance project
A project to maintain a solution
○       in Change Request Management. The project contains all maintenance activities and urg corrections of a solution.
○       in Check-In/Check-Out Business Processes from the Solution Directory

In addition you can contact a solman consultant who can tel you or show on system in detail the difference among this as mentioned above.
Hope it clarifies ur doubt

I want the freedom to use the language of my choice

I live in Spain, thus my billing details are linked to a Spanish debit card. I don't want to communicate in Spanish. I want to have a choice about the language iTunes Store is comunicating with me (and App Store). I imagine this is due to common lack of knowledge how the EU works, but you have many expats of all different countries living in another country. Just because my IP address or VISA card is coming from one country that does NOT mean I want to communicate in language of that country. I have noticed many post about this on Apple discussion forums, how long do we have to wait until the big American brother (Apple) will get an idea that this is not working for their paying customers, and they loosing revenues. Give me the freedom to choose the language I want to use when buying your products!

These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple and they don't read or reply to posts here (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/

Generics to let user choose what type of object to create

How can I do that? I mean, using JOptionPane I can get user input in a way like:
String str = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter a type of object you want to create");
And assuming that I have generic class Box<T>, how can I assign the type that I got from user to T?
As far as I know T doesn't exist at run time (thanks to erasure), but is there any way to do something similar to what I described?
Thank you.

You can do this with reflection.
String clsName = "java.util.Date";
Object obj = Class.forName(clsName).newInstance();
System.out.println(obj);

END USER accessing only the Output of report

Hi,
I'm creating reports based on queries, right now we are planning to give view access to end users, but my doubt if end user hits view on the report the query runs everytime and produces the report, what I want to achieve is that the we schedule the report before night and end user will only view the PDF output the query produces by the scheduling, How can I achieve this?

So do we need to give the user access to schedule button as well? and Do you mean run report online option?
Any update please?

While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything.

While using a drop-down menu i.e. File, edit, image, or even when saving as and choosing the file type; the list appears and I am able to highlight what i want but cannot click on anything. This is becoming incredibly frustrating. It happens at random time and a restart of the computer is all that helps, then with out any notice it starts to do this again. Mac Book Pro i7 2.2 16 GB 1333 Ram, (2) 450GB SSD both internal to machine. At this point I am losing file because I am unable to save in the file type I need. Does anyone out there know how to solve this issue?
Thanks

I haven't been unify photoshop much in the past month, but I did try your suggestion and it seemed to work for a while. Today when i went to save a document the same thing happened: click on file>save at this point I can not click on save even though it is highlighted. Tryed to use command s that brings up the save dialogue box, but when I try to change file type I again cannot select it from the drop down menu.

Choosing the paper type when Printing to Canon S9000

How do I choose the paper-type setting from the print options menu?
The Canon OS X manual speaks about a pull down menu which allows for selection of "quality and media."
I am finding options for printer choice, rendering, layout, print image etc, but nothing that allows me to choice glossy photo paper vs. matte, et al.
I have also downloaded a canon software update without noticeable difference.
Am I missing something obvious here?
Thanks.

Thanks for your response. I am accessing the print menu and subsequent options, but what I see is a window in which the correct printer is selected then below it is a section for choosing layout, then one for margins, rendering, image adjustments, image options. Everything but quality and media.
If I futz around in I Photo I do see a limited paper choice option from a pull down, so I assume I am still missing something in Aperture itself.
Thanks.

HT2534 I already made an accoount, so how can I change it so that I do not have to choose a type of credit card. Cause it does not give me the option of NONE

I already made an accoount, so how can I change it so that I do not have to choose a type of credit card. Cause it does not give me the option of NONE

Did you follow the instructions on that page exactly ? The instructions work for me e.g. selecting a free app in the App Store app and tapping on 'free', then 'install app' and 'create new apple id' - filling in my details then gave a 'none' option on the payment details :

I am sending a single-page poster in Illustrator to a commercial printer. There are several placed graphics and I want to choose the correct file-type to keep my Illustrator file nice and small.

Printers like PDFs, but you should consult with the print vendor before you save the file in any particular format. Each vendor is different and have an established workflow. They may not accept JPGs. If the poster prints offset, you will need to supply the appropriate resolution per their request or what they require. If the poster is large format or grand format, then they will or should know what resolution is appropriate. However, large format inkjet only requires 144-150ppi at 100% final size. Try to get in the habit of consulting with the print vendor early on so you end up supplying what is needed.
