Have you used the new workflow features in CM 12?

In CM 12.0, users can optionally deploy the standard
approval processing or new flexible, workflow approval
processing based on the project and/or document. Have you
used the new workflow features? Do you think the new
workflows will allow your organization to better drive and
control internal and multiple party reviews?

I was one of those users who fight for this
functionality.
I find using it however very
unhandy.
Let me give you real
life examples:
1. Once you
create an order/contract and do not choose "New
Method" you cannot change approval method to new any
more. Imagine one of my users was creating an order
with 120 items (hell of typing!) then she spotted that
she cannot send it with new review process to several
reviewers in sequence. The need for retyping it makes
5 other ppl already against this software, even if
they did not used it at all.
2.
Document Owner has admin rights.
For some
reason user needs to be document owner in order to
setup review process. Imagine in our situation usual a
site assistant, or junior person in technical office
is responsible for creating and typing all the
orders/contracts. So this person needs to be Document
Owner in order start review.
Document owner
however can also approve/reject in name of other users
mentioned in review cycle. This I find strange and
make entire new review/approval cycle worthless, as
the situation is still that anyone can approve someone
on someone behalf with no control.
<br
/>3. Alerts missing. I couldn't find an alert that
would be generated if a document is held internal (by
user) for more then ... x days.
<br
/>4. I'm also missing a Project Setting for "all
documents must use new review process"; "defoult
reviewers is + 'All in sequence' + 'list of reviewers'
- for each kind of document.<br /><br />If
you want to force users to follow a strict
methodology, and your software gives them chance to
choose whomever they want, wherever they want, use any
approval method, approve on someone behalf ... you
will finally fail.<br /><br />I keep
hearing that Primavera sold thousand of licenses, and
they will develop this product, I just hope they will
hurry, before users switch to other software.<br
/><br />

  • Using the New Video Features in Photoshop CS6 | Photoshop CS6 Feature Tour | Adobe TV

    Adobe Digital Imaging Evangelist Julieanne Kost shows how to use the new video features in Photoshop CS6.
    http://adobe.ly/I5cUF2

    I am removing a dust spot from video clips taken during an aerial shoot. I have discovered that the only effective way to remove these spots effectively is to use PS6 and go frame by frame using the paint brush, clone stamp, and spot healing brush. It is very time consuming and mind numbing but the only thing that works with all tha movement of the aircraft and the ground below.
    My question:
    Right now to advance the clip one frame at a time - I must magnify the time line so to see the frame by frame lables. To advance to the next frame I must remove my cursor from the work area and go down to the time line and click on the next frame.
    How can I advance to the next frame with a keyboard stroke and not move my cursor out of the work area?
    Thank you in advance for any help.

  • Trying to use the new file features in Flash 10

    Hi there, I'm now trying to use the new file features in Flash 10 but I'm getting this error when I try something like
    fileRef.load();
    ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property load not found on flash.net.FileReference and there is no default value.

    It's tough to tell without seeing more of your code, but it might be that you're missing these lines of code at the top of your actions window:
        import flash.net.FileFilter;
        import flash.net.FileReference;

  • Are you using the new features?

    Some of you were very loud about getting certain features for PlayStation 4 and some even complained that they weren't available on day day1.
    You asked for suspend/resume, a media player, dlna, the ability to pause downloads and you got it.
    So are you using these new features?

    Suspend and resume... for endurance racing modes on PJ Cars...Theres no save race status, kill the game lose the hole  1 hour 30mins race... sleep mode is on so if you pause the game the PS4 powers down and saves the game status.... Tested DLNA don't need it allready used plex VIA web browser then the transcoding PS3 and PS4 app...Pause and cancel down loads used.  Music player use for PJ cars... As people stated if you Do not Use any thing then they vanish from the dynamic menu on PS4...Most are not even on the console untill a User hits the down load option... (technicaly you could use the youtube app to watch this...)

  • Can you use the new iMac with FCS.

    This is one of those a friend of a friend of a friend told me this.  His friend, who shoots video that's shown on a local access channel, just bought the latest iMac.  I don't know what this person's set up is or what kind of equipment is, but he claims that he might have to upgrade his cameras because he can't import the footage.  I'm interested in investing in the new iMac but hesitate because I do a lot of amateur video work (weddings, birthday parties, etc.)  Anyone heard anything about this?  By the way, I use a two year old HD Sony video camera and use FCS 7.  All video is stored on an external hard drive.

    The current 27" iMac's with Thunderbolt will run the whole suite of Final Cut Studio apps just fine.  The catch will be your external Scratch Drive.  Until Thunderbolt drives ship in a couple of months, you're stuck with FW800, which barely cuts it for serious HD work.  Thunderbolt will change that.
    One option is to get the configuration that has both an SSD and a 1TB 7200rpm HDD drives in it.  The SSD would be your OS drive, the HDD your Scratch Drive.  That would work fine.
    As for professionals, I teach them, guys from huge cable news networks, who've been using FCP since v.1.  I'm amazed how many of them walk away even after the 1st day of class with whole new workflows.  You never stop learning in any profession.  The day you do, you're out dated.
    The model of Mac you use has nothing to do with your ability to import footage.  The version of FCP you use CAN affect that a great deal, though.
    Specifically what make/model camera do you plan to be using for this work?  BTW, weddings and events are a very profitable niche profession.  I have friends who make good livings for years doing only that.

  • Hi guys, i would like to ask about the apple id.  Which at this time I have been using the new apple id, can I be able to continue updates all the applications that I have purchased by using the old apple id.

    Hey guys, I am newbie here ;(.. I have a question regarding my new apple id. at this moment i've still have all the applications that i've been purchased by using my old apple id.
    In case there are an update for the applications in my iphone, " Can i use my new apple id to update all the application that i've been purchased with my old apple id ". If its not possible to do, are there any suggestion for me to updates all the applications by using my new apple id ?
    Many thanks ;)

    Apps must be updated using the Apple ID used to originally download them to the device.
    If you cannot or will not use the old Apple ID, then you can delete the app, and then download it again using the current Apple ID.  Be aware that any paid apps will have to be purchased again.

  • Have you seen the new changes in Microsoft Word?

    Microsoft recently made updates to Microsoft Word online to make working between documents as seamless as possible. The updates are being rolled out region by region, so you may not see these updates until later this week.
    Let’s check out the changes:
    1. Comments    
    When reviewing a document, comments can be critical to refining your work. Now, comments will be available in Word online just like the other versions of Microsoft Word you are used to. The new comments panel makes it easy to see all of the comments in a document.
    You can not only reply to comments, but you can also mark them as done. Hints along the margin make it easy to tell where comments have been added.
    2. List Improvements (I wish I could post a photo here, so I could show you an example) 
    Lists are a great way to stay organized. Now, Microsoft is bringing some added intelligence to lists. Word will know when a list ends and a new one begins. You’ll also be able to click a menu item and select one of the list-specific options, Start
    New List, Continue Numbering or Set Numbering Value.
    When you choose Start New List, numbering will start from 1. If you would like to start a list from a previous list in your document, you can select continue numbering. If the previous list updates, your
    current list will update as well.
    You can also choose Set Numbering Value. With this option you can start a new list with numbering starting at any number, or you can continue from a previous list but have your top entry skip a few numbers. The possibilities
    for lists are endless.
    3. Exporting Document
    It is now easier then ever to export documents in Microsoft Word online. There is now an option to download as a PDF and printing to a PDF is easier now too.
    If you weren’t using Microsoft Word online before, now it’s time to start. We no longer live in a world where we just work at our office. Work is done everywhere and on the go, and using online programs has become a part of
    our daily lives. These updates to Microsoft Work will make it easier to work effectively between documents, and we can’t wait to see what changes they will make next.

    Hi,
    Thank you for focusing on our product and sharing your experience here, this will definitely help other users who are interested in our product.

  • HT202879 I have been using the linked boxes feature extensively in my layouts, and am most surprised that it has been dropped - WHY?

    The linked boxes feature in Pages was one of my pet facilities, and a carryover from my days with MS Office's Publisher.  I am most chargrined to find that when I converted my pages newsletter template to the latest version, the link had vanished.  I first thought it was something I'd done, but now i learn that the feature was removed by the developers.  When can i expect the feature to be restored?

    LibreOffice 4.2.2.1:
    To Link Text Frames
    You can link Writer text frames so that their contents automatically flow from one frame to another.
    1. Click the edge of a frame that you want to link. Selection handles appear on the edges of the frame.
    2. On the Frame Bar, click the Link Frames icon .
    3. Click the frame that you want to link to.
    You can only link frames if:
    The target frame is empty.
    The target frame is not linked to another frame.
    The source and the target frames are in the same section. For example, you cannot link a header frame to a footer frame.
    The source frame does not have a next link.
    The target or the source frame are not contained in each other.
    When you select a linked frame, a line is displayed that connects the linked frames.

  • HT204655 Can you use the new photos library for iPhoto to save space

    I want to use the same library for photos and iPhoto because that way it will use a fraction of the space. Is that possible.

    When you open the iPhoto library with Photos for the first time it will convert it to a Photos library.  However, there is not a duplication of files or lost space on the HD. This is because the Photos library uses hard links to the original files in the iPhoto Library thus not duplicating files or taking up more space on the HD even though it may see so in the Finder. 
    I suggest you keep the iPhoto application and library until you're sure the Photos app and library will suit your needs.  Photos is missing many features that iPhoto has which many of rely on heavily.  You may find that Photos isn't for you right now and you want to continue using iPhoto until those missing features are restored. 

  • UCSM to C240 - can use old 2248 way or have to use the new 2232 way?

    Referring the the fairly well known, but somewhat dated C200 document:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c/hw/C200M1/install/ucsm-integration.html
    If my customer is ordering brand new C240's and 6296's, and we want to have the 10G ports on the C240 CNA's go directly to the 6296 so they are not oversubscribing like they would if going through a 2232... and use a 2248 for the uplinking of the LOM connections... But it is not clear at all if that method is supported with newer server firmware and UCSM versions.
    -mike

    I understand new vs. old, and that the 2248 was 1G...   Does someone have a statement by Cisco saying this is not supported ???
    If the customer has a hard requirement to not oversubscribe, and go wire rate, we are limited to 8 servers per 2232, which amounts to them paying $1250 for each of 8 servers up to $10000 for a single server for what is really just a dongle.
    even the new adapters still will have to go to the 2232 from what I hear, whereas if they could hook up straight to the FI if they only had a couple of C-Series in their Blade environment... does not seem like rocket science to do a bit of packet manipulation on the CNA or in the FI
    Does not seem to follow the mantra of less cabling, complexity, and components of unified....

  • Movie color is too dark if you use the new Final Cut Pro X.

    Does anyone know the problem?
    Problem is shown in FCPX. 
    thank you

    Yes, I have the same issue, it's a mismatch with LUT-based color profiles you might have installed. It's best to use the Apple profile in your monitor settings preferences, and let's hope Apple solves this problem on short term.

  • Use the new aluminium keyboard on a PC with Windows XP

    Hello all,
    That post is describing the problems I have when using the new apple aluminium keyboard on a PC using the windows XP keyboard drivers found on the boot camp CD (1.4)
    This is my first post here so please be kind with me
    First, let me know in case there is a better section where I should post that post.
    I know that what I will ask here may not be a supported scenario. I understand that. But anyway. Here it is.
    I am using Windows XP on a PC not a mac computer.
    I bought one of the new aluminium keyboards. I love it, it's excellent. I know that the box says it requires mac os X 10.4 and up... I understand al that.
    Because it is an USB keyboard, I thought I like it, let's try it on a PC. It worked but the letters on the keyboard are not placed like those on a PC.
    Then I tought, why not use the driver for that keyboard provided on the bootcamp CD. I bought the keyboard. I own all my licences, so why not?
    First I had a lot of troubles extracting those drivers from the bootcamp CD. I use Transmac for that.
    A long story short. It's working and I'm typing that post right now on my cool keyboard.
    so why am I here? Because it's not working perfectly.
    All the keys are working perfectly, only the companion softwares are not.
    I'm unable to launch the bootcamp dashboard, I have the icon in my systray but when I try to open the dashboard I get:
    Boot Camp
    An error occurred while trying to access the startup disk settings.
    You may not have privileges to change the startup disk. Make sure you have administrative privileges and try again.
    OK
    I understand that. I guess this is related to the boot camp dual boot feature.
    I guess that if this was working I could access to the bootcamp option panel and eventually have the opportunity to get access to the keyboard options? maybe I'm guessing wrong.
    So, what I'm asking here is for the apple developpers working on the windows drivers for the apple hardware.
    Do you think that you could test your drivers on PCs ? I'm pretty sure you could sell some more keyboard to the PC peoples as your keyboards are trully excellent.
    The 'problems' I have are the following:
    - I cannot lock or unlock the fn key, what I would like to do is use the F7 to F12 keys by default and press the fn key if I ant to access to the scpecial features, like for sound and CD eject
    - kbrd.exe does not always start automaticaly. And when I start it by hand my computer freezes for about ten seconds
    - the keyboard layout should only be changed for the apple keyboard, not for all the keyboards connected to the PC. Because I have two keyboards attached to my computer, my previous pc keyboard and the new apple keyboard. The layout on the PC keyboard is now the same as for the apple keyboard. this is wrong as it renders my previous keyboard useless. why do I need another keyboard? because that other one is cable less, meaning I can use it to control my PC when I'm not in front of it. But now, with the apple keyboard drivers this is not longer possible
    - an option to have to press fn+eject to eject the CD would be nice. this will avoid me pressing eject by accident when I try to press the back delete key
    - also as the drivers exist, why not let people like me download them outside of bootcamp for the kind of scenario I'm describing here?
    That would all be very nice.
    If you need a tester for that scenario, count on me,
    Thank you for your comprehension about me asking such a question
    I love that keyboard and do not intend to stop using it,
    John.

    Hello spidermains,
    Happy to see that I have a friend in that adventure
    Look I have a blog entry here:
    http://www.happytocode.com/post/Can-I-use-the-new-Apple-USB-Aluminium-keyboard-o n-Windows.aspx
    That post describes all the steps I followed to extract the drivers from the dual boot camp CD.
    I'm using a PC, only a PC. I do not have any Apple computer (yet).
    When I mention boot camp, I mean the boot camp CD on one side and the boot camp utilities on the other side. To be more specific the tool I'm talking about is the kbrmgr.exe
    That tool sits in the systray and is handling the special keys of the keyboard.
    If you have other questions... let me know,
    John.

  • Using the new Call and Chat buttons

    This is really not a Mac issue, even though I use a Mac. It is a general issue regarding the use of the new Call and Chat buttons in web sites and HTML signatures,
    I was using the so called "legacy" buttons, both on my home web site as well as in my HTML signature. Sometime a few days ago they stopped working altogether. I checked the Internet and I saw the post that Skype has discontinued their use and insteasd we would have to use the new Call and Chat buttons that work via a generated script.
    This is fine, but I am having two issues here:
    1) When I include the script on my web site, the Call image always goes on a line by itself. What I want is to have it on the same line with some other social media like images, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. I could do this with the old legacy images but not with this new one.
    2) How can I have now this functionality in an HTML signature? I can't put a script there.
    Thanks for any help!
    George

    As far as I know, you can't change it: first, your photo is probably a .jpg and iMovie will be adapting it to a video file which will result in somewhat of a loss of quality and second, if your original picture is small, it cannot be enlarged without significant loss of quality as it will get blurry while the individual pixels are being made larger - that depends on your camera settings and its photo output size. So it could be either or both of those that is the problem here. Check your camera and see what size you are taking your pictures in.
