Group versus symbols

Hi,
What is the best practice:
- to group elements on a div or create a wrapper Symbol and put everything inside ?
Is there any difference ?
I've just grouped some elements in my Stage so to keep them together. But a small bug is happening, like one of the buttons is coming out of nowhere when not asked to.
Is this maybe due to a bad usage of grouping ?
Thanks for your advice,

Symbols are nothing but a RE-USABLE group element only.
You can export a symbol and reuse it later point of time by importing it into another composition.
So, if you are using a group multiple times, just convert it into a symbol, and just make multiple instances of it.

Replace groups with symbols

I have a client file that used duplicated groups instead of symbols. Is there a script that will replace all "Groups" with a given symbol? I'm sure this has been asked before, but don't seem to find the thread.
Thanks.

Perfect! Thanks Monika. Find and Replace Graphics did the trick.

Symbol versus Symbol Std

Since FM8, I use Unicode fonts since it's the only sensible way for multilingual documents. Also, I use Adobe Pi Std for special graphical symbols instead of Wingdings or type 1 Dingbats etc, since it is Unicode and installed with FM8, which makes it much more robust and safe than using encoding in the ascii range. Likewise, Courier Std is used instead of Courier.
However, Symbol is special in FM: I considered to switch to Symbol Std, since it is also installed by FM8, and is a Unicode-only font. However, for equations, FM still uses regular Symbol rather than Symbol Std! This cannot be changed, despite Symbol Std is in the standard FM directory (fminit/fonts/adobe)! This speaks for continuing to use Symbol rather than going for Symbol Std. (Tested by making a PDF and then checking the fonts.) On the other hand, when I copy from a PDF-saved version of the file and paste into FM, a character that used regular Symbol becomes encoded in the Unicode range (above ascii) when pasted into FM (thus requiring Symbol Std instead of Symbol). This latter behavior speaks for using Symbol Std whenever possible, but if so, the PDF file may very well embed BOTH Symbol versions if I have both an equation and some symbols, and this mix seems inelegant to me.
I am interested in hearing other's view on this.
FYI: As for distilling into PDF, I always have the 'Adobe PDF Printing Preferences' set to always include fonts when generating postscript, since not doing this will often crash FM, no matter what fonts you use. A well-known issue with FM since many versions.

Harald,
The font definitions for the equation characters are all stored in the
\fminit\mathchar.cfg file. You can swap out the Symbol if you wish.
Just make a backup copy of this file before you start changing it. ;-)

Currency.getSymbol() return value (3 letter versus symbol)

For a given Currency, how can you return the actual currency symbol and not the 3 letter abbreviation, regardless of the user's locale or default locale? I am aware of other formatting issues related to currency such as fractional digits and separators, but I am just focusing on the symbol here. I have to use Java 1.4. In the examples below the default locale is en_US. In my real application, the currecy code can be any valid one, not just the two I am using here as an example.
Example 1:
double num = 1234.56;
System.out.println(Currency.getInstance("USD").getSymbol() + num);
System.out.println(Currency.getInstance("EUR").getSymbol() + num);Actual Outputs:
$1234.56
EUR1234.56
Example 2:
double num = 1234.56;
NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
Currency usd = Currency.getInstance("USD");
Currency eur = Currency.getInstance("EUR");
formatter.setCurrency(usd);
System.out.println(formatter.format(num));
formatter.setCurrency(eur);
System.out.println(formatter.format(num));Actual Outputs:
$1,234.56
EUR1,234.56
Desired Outputs (symbol displays for both):
$1,234.56
�1,234.56
Any suggestions? Thank you.

Instead of checking if the currency name is present in the locale's name, why not check if the symbol returned isn't equal to the currency code? The only way I could see this not working is if different countries have different symbols for a single country's currency (I don't know if there are any cases of this or not).
private String getSymbol(String currName) {
Currency currency = Currency.getInstance(currName);
Locale[] allLocales = Locale.getAvailableLocales();
for (int i = 0; i < allLocales.length; i++)
String symbol = currency.getSymbol(allLocales);
if(!symbol.equals(currName))
return symbol;
return currName;

Cache groups and # symbol

Hi!
I have oracle table (user kvstr):
create table CHANGES
CHNG_ID NUMBER(10) not null,
DAY DATE default SYSDATE,
VOLUME_# NUMBER(4,2),
NAVI_USER VARCHAR2(30) default USER,
NAVI_DATE DATE default SYSDATE
Then I create TimesTen 7.0.1 (WIN32) cache group:
CREATE USERMANAGED CACHE GROUP "CGRP_CHANGES"
FROM
"KVSTR"."CHANGES" (
"CHNG_ID" NUMBER(10) NOT NULL,
"DAY" DATE,
"VOLUME_#" NUMBER(4,2),
PRIMARY KEY("CHNG_ID"), READONLY
WHERE (TRUNC("KVSTR"."CHANGES"."DAY") = TRUNC(SYSDATE));
Cache group created normally. But when I refresh cache group error occurred:
Command> REFRESH CACHE GROUP ttsys.cgrp_changes COMMIT EVERY 1000 ROWS;
5056: The cache operation fails: error_type=<Oracle Error>, error_code=<1740>, error_message: ORA-01740: missing double quote in identifier
5039: An error occurred while refreshing TTSYS.CGRP_CHANGES: Refresh failed (ORA-01740: missing double quote in identifier
The command failed.
What's wrong?

Hi!
I was also facing the same problem but with out using # the problem gets solved. I guess TimesTen does not supports # in the column names but it is mentioned in the docs that it supports .

When to user Availability Group versus traditional Clustered SQL Server

Hi...
I'm trying to get my arms around when to use an SQL Server 2014 Availability Group. Here are the characteristics about my platform:
2 physical servers (Windows Server 2012 / SQL Server 2014)
Both servers connected to same LAN
External SAN storage connected DIRECTLY to each physical server via fibr3-channel. (No fibre-channel switch)
Database resides on SAN storage.
I've set up a failover cluster between the 2 physical servers.
I've created a high availability group with a Primary/Secondary and synchronization.
Both Primary/Secondary are green and show synchronized. The concern I have is that the Primary says Synchronizing (No Data Loss) and the Secondary says Not Synchronizing (Data Loss). When I use the Failover Wizard to failover, it tells me that I will have
data loss on the Secondary.
So my questions are these, do you need more than one Secondary node to have an effective Availability Group? If I only plan to have the 2 physical servers, should I be setting up a traditional Clustered SQL Server installation.
I've used the traditional Clustered SQL Server in the past and used the Active/Passive licensing for the SQL Server software but the Always On Availability Group looked interesting to me, but NOT if it requires more than 2 physical servers and more
than 2 SQL Instances (and licenses) to provide proper failover capability.
All input will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brett

Hi Brett,
An AlwaysOn Availability Group is created between several standalone SQL Server instances, you don’t need to set up a traditional clustered SQL Server installation when configuring AlwaysOn Availability Group. Also you can have an effective Availability Group
with only one Secondary node.
From your description, you have an synchronous-commit availability secondary replica
and it says Not Synchronizing. This issue can be caused by the following:
•The availability replica might be disconnected.
•The data movement might be suspended.
•The database might not be accessible.
•There might be a temporary delay issue due to network latency or the load on the primary or secondary replica.
Please resolve any connection or data movement suspend issues. You can check the events for this issue using SQL Server Management Studio, and find the database error.
Reference:
Data synchronization state of some availability database is not healthy
Availability databases in unhealthy data synchronization state (Error: 35285, Severity: 16, State: 1.)

Get and hide all child symbols

I'd like to target all child symbol instances of my mT symbol and hide them.
Something like this (except this doesn't work):
childsymbols_d1 = sym.getSymbol("holder").getSymbol("d1").getSymbol("mT").getChildSymbols();
for(var i=0; i<childsymbols_d1.length; i++){
childsymbols_d1[i].hide();
I don't want to use the timeline because I have a lot of child symbols, and would like to do this operation on several other symbols.

i tried this and it works.
I grouped the symbols in mT into a div called rect.
sym.getSymbol("holder").getSymbol("d1").getSymbol("mT").$('rect').children().hide();

Some Symbols disappear when I create Tween

Hello,
I seem to be having trouble with Tweening. I have a group of
symbols hat I moved from one location at the keyframe 10 to another
location at the keyframe 20. When I create a motion tween, some of
the objects move fine, while others disappear during the frames
11-19 and then reappear at 20. I really don't know what I'm doing
wrong, and would appreciate any help. Thanks!

I get the same problem, and I have found a number of workarounds. Obviously, you can just convert all of the tweened intervals' frames to keyframes, but this is kind of an awful solution if you have a lot of tweened intervals
I've noticed that if you go into any symbol that has tweens and play across the timeline, that it seems to fix the problem for the moment - at least long enough to output a correct .swf.
I've also found that if you add a keyframe anywhere that has the symbol with tweens or that has the symbol with tweens nested anywhere down in it, that Flash corrects the problem, even after the key has been deleted. It seems that when you add the key, Flash must go through the nested symbols and reacquaint itself with how they are supposed to be working. Again, this method only works for as long as you have the project open. Once you save it out and reload it, the problem generally reappears.
But I think the most convenient method is to make a layer on the main timeline and put keys on it that contain every symbol necessary to include all of the tweened intervals, in those symbols or nested within them. Then when you want to output without having the tweened elements disappear, do a "save and compact". This seems to make Flash check through all of the symbols and nested symbols and correct the tweened intervals. Then "guide" the layer with all of those keys so that it won't show, and output your .swf, and all of the tweened intervals should behave. You'll have to go through this rigamarole every time you want to output, but it's not too bad. (I think that that layer has to be unguided during the "save and compact" in order to fix it's symbols.)
(This is all in Flash CS3, so I don't know if any of it has changed.)

Edge Animate playing all symbols on replay?

Hi, I am at my wits' end here--I've created a basic animation using Edge Animate CC 2014.0.1, featuring groups of symbols which have a stop trigger at the beginning of the animation and are then played at the appropriate time. It works fine--the first time through. However, I added a "replay" button which loops back to a point early in the animation (but not the very beginning), and on the replay, all the symbols display their end state from the beginning (even though I had them fading to 0 before the loop trigger), until they play again. This seems to happen whether I loop to the beginning or another point.
If this sounds familiar, it's because I asked a similar question a few months ago (about symbols autoplaying), but this time no amount of tweaking or trigger nudging seems to get them to disappear. Any thoughts? Composition is attached.
http://iancareyjazz.com/documents/symbol_problem.zip
Any ideas are appreciated!

I think the easiest way to make this work would be to change all your play() on the timeline by play from 0. This way your symbols will alway play from the beginning of their timeline. I would change autoplay to off for all symbols because if you have a stop() on their timeline they will not play.

Chrome playing all symbols at once despite "stop" triggers?

Hi Everyone, I'm working on an animation (Edge Animate CC 2014) where several sets of events are grouped in symbols--each has a "stop" trigger at 0:00 and then a "play" trigger at the appropriate time. This works fine in Firefox & Safari, but Chrome plays ALL symbols simultaneously from the beginning (resulting in a complete mess). Has anyone else had this problem, and are there any solutions short of getting rid of the symbols and pasting their content to the main timeline (resulting in a HUGE and unmanageable action list)?
Here's the animation: Untitled
Thanks!

If you move the Timeline trigger stop just a little rightward, it works. See capture.

Breaking link to symbols

I'm using AI CS6 and here's my problem in a nutshell: I've got very many symbols that I need to place in a design and then break the link, then send off the different pieces of the symbol to different layers. Now with my previous version of AI (CS4), once the the link was broken and the objects in the symbol ungrouped, the various parts could be dismantled easily. But with CS6, after the same sequence of operations, the objects of that symbol are locked together in their own layer within whatever layer the symbol was placed. Thus when I try to send off one part of the symbol to another layer, the entire symbol goes with it. So, ultimately, instead of selecting things by color or whatever and sending them off en masse, I'm having to go though the list of objects in the layers panel and, one-by-one, move all the needed pieces of the symbols out of their own sub-layer before I can send them off to a different layer. This is very tedious and frustrating, especially, considering how easy it was to do in CS4. Anyone have a solution they'd be willing to share?

Group the symbol before breaking the link. That way it won't create its won layer.

You do need to group by these columns
t.tag_trade_method,
d.date_dt,
c.wmc_curcy_cd_alpha,
td.person_init,
amd.brkr_nm,
astd.tag_trade_sector,
iss.gics_sector_dsc
as they don't have aggregate functions applied to them.

Customer group and price group mapping

Hi All ,
I want to know where do we set the mapping for the customer group versus price group in the system .
Is there any customizing t-code for this?
Please advice.
Thanks in advance,
Swati

Dear Swathi,
There is no T-Code for Setting Customer Group and Pricing gorup in Customizing
But we assign generally this two in front end due to requirements,
like we consider in this two in Pricing condition creation in VK11, here suppose we maintain Key Combination in Customer Group and Pricing Group then we consider
Hope this may helps you
