Help With Weight Maps Please

Hello, I remember once using Weight Maps to have characters
moving in a 3D scene I once did. Unfortunately I cant remember how
I did it. There was a tutorial I used but I cant find it now. Could
anyone give me a short tutorial on how to apply weight maps in
Lightwave to a simple character for basic movement - i.e. legs,
head and arms. A link would suffice. Thanks for any help!

1 - Assign the weightmaps pr vertex (not by polygon)
2 - Don't assign overlapping weights (one vertex/point is
only assigned to one weightmap)
3 - Set each bone to Use Weight Map Only
4 - Dont apply any scaling of the bones, only rotation (and
if needed positioning/moving)
If possible, keep the rig to be only one bone pr weightmap,
that seems to make things behave nicely too.
...and you should be good to go. If you have any problems
exporting, save the scene, close LW and open it again and export
one more time.

Help with java mapping

PI File adapter has a processing option u2018Empty-Message Handlingu2019 to ignore or Write Empty Files. In case there is no data created after mapping on target side then this option determines whether to write an empty file or not. But there is a catch to this option when it comes to using it with File Content Conversion which is described in SAP Note u2018821267u2019. It states following:
I configure the receiver channel with File content conversion mode and I set the 'Empty Message Handling' option to ignore. Input payload to the receiver channel is generated out of mapping and it does not have any record sets. However, this payload has a root element. Why does file receiver create empty output file with zero byte size in the target directory? Example of such a payload generated from mapping is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns1:test xmlns:ns1="http://abcd.com/ab"></ns1:test>
solution :
If the message payload is empty (i.e., zero bytes in size), then File adapter's empty message handling feature does NOT write files into the target directory. On the other hand, if the payload is a valid XML document (as shown in example) that is generated from mapping with just a root element in it, the File Adapter does not treat it as an empty message and accordingly it writes to the target directory. To achieve your objective of not writing files (that have just a single root element) into the target directory, following could be done:
Using a Java or ABAP Mapping in order to restrict the creation of node itself during mapping. (This cannot be achieved via Message Mapping)
Using standard adapter modules to do content conversion first and then write file.
can someone help with java mapping that can be used in this case?

Hi,
    You have not mentioned the version of PI you are working in. In case you are working with PI 7.1 or above then here is the java mapping code you need to add after message mapping in the same interface mapping

     FileOutputStream out=new FileOutputStream("C:\\apps\\sdn\\rootNode1.xml");
     genFormat.execute(in,out);
     catch(Exception e)
     e.printStackTrace();
The code for PI 7.0 should also work for PI 7.1 provided you use the right jar files for compilation, but vice-versa is not true.
Could you please let us know if this code was useful to you or not?

you can use the sharedobject to record a user/computer has taken your quiz, the session data and record their results. at the start of your quiz, check for the sharedobject and, if it exists, check the other data and take appropriate action.

Help with access control please

So I'm trying to set up my brother's PSP to the wirless network through MAC address timed access. What I want to do is make it so that he can only access it through certain times in the day. I'm having troubles with actually getting it to work. Everytime I set it up, the PSP only show's up as a DHCP client and not a Wireless client. I tried the option panel with the add wireless clients through the first try access. Could I get some help with this issue please? Thanks!

Just to calm your fears... There is no conspiracy. If someone had an answer or a suggestion they would post it.

Need help with instruments mapping

I have Korg PA80 and i hooked up midi out from it to midi in to Logic8, I have some nice realtime accompaniment tunes i can play on that keyboard, what i want to do is to play on my PA80 accompaniment tracks but replace all sounds with my custom sounds from my Logic plug ins, right now when I hit play all i hear is some garbage playing because no instruments properly mapped on Logic, I even created all 16 instrument tracks and set them all on all 16 channels, drums on 10 and so on, but when i start play on PA80 in Logic I still hear like bass trying to play all parts and not bass part only, same for drums when i press Am or Dm drums will play properly with some another drums sounds that trying to play all other instruments parts, need to separate them so the bass will play only bass part, drums will play drum part and so on, need help on how can i do that, lets say for drums i will choose logic drums sounds, for base Logic bases and so on, so Logic will become something like sound module for my PA80 instead of internal sounds I would like to use my virtual instruments sounds, thanks a lot

Thanks for your reply Dave.
I have no answer to your question but I found a way to create my SQL code with OWB mapping operators. Unfortunately it is very very slow compared to the execution of the SQL code and therefore not useful at all. I connected the following steps all in one mapping:
1. Table operator(T006_SITE) -> Filter(T006A01PK_SITEID where T006A11FK_COUNTRYID IS NULL)
2. Table operator(T002_COUNTRY) -> AGG (MAX T002A01PK_COUNTRYID)
3. JOIN the output from 1. and 2.(T006A01PK_SITEID and T002A01PK_COUNTRYID))
4. UPDATE T006_SITE with the output from 3. (T006A01PK_SITEID as matching column and T006A11FK_COUNTRYID as column to be updated)
The execution mode of the mapping should be set-based fail over to row-based, but it used row-based mode even without getting an error. Are UPDATE mappings only executable in row-based mode or is there a way to change that?
Does anyone have an idea how I can speed up that mapping or integrate my SQL code in the OWB?
Thanks in advance,
Dirk

Help with photo albums Please

Hi, i really need some help with my pictures, I've only got a very basic understanding of how my phone works and have somehow put a load of albums on my phone when i plugged it into the computer-I want to delete some of them off the phone but cannot work out how to do it, when i plug my phone in i can find the photo tab but cannot actually see the pictures and can't see any delete button!!! Please can someone help me, basic explanations would be gratefully recieved xxxx

The photo sync is one way: computer to phone. To remove photos, synced to your phone, remove the check marks next to the albums/folders under the photos tab in itunes & hit the apply/sync button. They will be removed from your phone. You cannot delete photos that were synced to your phone, directly on your phone. The easiest way to manage photos synced to your phone is to create albums or folders on your computer. Move whatever photos you want on your phone into these albums/folders & then select them under the photos tab in itunes to sync to your phone. You can then remove or add photos to these various albums/folders on your computer & the itunes sync process will update your phone every time you sync.

Freely programmed search help with external mapping

Hi all.
I have a freely programmed search help to search for physical inventory items.
I map some data from the component where i use this search help to this search help via external mapping. This works fine.
But in the search help I want to be able to change the mapped data to perform a new serach. When I change the data and start the action to search again (in the serach help component) I still get the old field value from context so that the search returns the same result. When I close the search help afterwards the changes are suddenly visible in the using component. So my entered data are somehow transfered to the original context but not to the context of the used component.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Sascha

Hi Sascha,
I would suggest, that you do not work with the externally mapped attribute.
Try to copy the value to a "local" attribute in the searchhelp context while WDDOINIT of the component.
This is the attribute you should use for the search.
When you change the searchvalue, it is only changed in the comnponent.
To get the values back to the calling component you need to copy it back while you call the action submit or exit.
Hope this helps
Best regards, Matthias

Need help with gradient map

Hello All,
Please can someone please advice me how to get the following gradient, I have tried but with no luck I am not good with gradient map!

Hello!
What part do you have trouble with? the recreation of the gradient, or how it affects the image?
In the gradient map editor, you can double-click on the bottom markers (called gradients stops) to change their color, and drag them around to re-create what you see... Click between two markers to add one, drag a gradient stop down to remove it.
In fact, you do not need the fourth gradient stop, the white one on the right side.
The top markers control the transparency (in regular gradients, gradient maps are unaffected)
With such a gradient map, the dark areas of the image will be white, neutrals will be black and light areas will be white.

Help with Message Mapping - Context Change

I need help with the following message mapping. I am filtering by EMP_STAT in the Message Mapping. I have this working for the ROW structures, but I can get the HEADER/REC_COUNT field to calculate. I can do just a record count of ROW and get it to work, but I can't get it to work with the filter EMP_STAT = 'REG' added. I get a context error. Could someone send me the mapping code.
Sender XML----
<RECORD>
<ROW>
<EMPLOYEE>111</EMPLOYEE>
<EMP_STAT>REG</EMP_STAT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<EMPLOYEE>222</EMPLOYEE>
<EMP_STAT>PT</EMP_STAT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<EMPLOYEE>333</EMPLOYEE>
<EMP_STAT>REG</EMP_STAT>
</ROW>
</RECORD>
Receiver XML----

<EMP_STAT>REG</EMP_STAT>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<EMPLOYEE>333</EMPLOYEE>
<EMP_STAT>REG</EMP_STAT>
</ROW>
</RECORD>

Hello,
You can use this mapping
For REC_COUNT:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> count -> REC_COUNT
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For ROW:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> ROW
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For EMPLOYEE:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> SplitByValue -> EMPLOYEE
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For EMP_STAT:
Constant: REG -> EMP_STAT
Hope this helps,

Help with Validation Problem Please

I don't understand this validation and don't know how to fix it. I have checked my other websites and they seem fine. I don't think I have done anything different The link for the website ishttp://www.greenpatchwebsites.com/pow/index.html
and the validator is http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.greenpatchwebsites.com%2Fpow%2Findex.html&charset=%2 8detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

Thank you very much in advance.

Thanks for that. I have tried it on a new page: http://www.greenpatchwebsites.com/pow/newtest.html and here is the validator :

I also tried the recommended template:
Use the following markup as a template to create a new XHTML 1.0 document using a proper DOCTYPE. See the list below if you wish to use another document type.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

but was getting errors with that. As you can tell, I need serious help with this. Which doc type should I be using
and why doesn't Dreamweaver just do it for you when you select one?
Thanks very much again in advance.

Help with button code please?

I am a novice and have just completed my first animated movie. I need help with action script.
The movie is currently looped and I have created and invisible button the size of the frame with the intention that a user can click on the movie image to stop it and on second click continue the movie from where it stopped.
I have used the AS event handler method to stop the movie. I have tested it and it works. But I cannot figure suitable code to restart the movie.
Two questions;
1. am I going about the task the right way? (should I use two buttons, one stop, one start)?
2. if my approach is feasible, can anyone give me the correct AS to re-start the movie and put me out of my misery please?

you can use the following after changing "yourbutton" and "yourmovieclip" to use suitable instance names:
yourbutton.onRelease=function(){
if(!this.toggle){
yourmovieclip.stop();
} else {
yourmovieclip.play();
this.toggle=!this.toggle;

Help with Required fields-PLEASE

I have been attempting to get help with a required field and one of the forum helpers said he got it to work for me but I cannot and I have not been able to get any more responses from him to help me further.
I am attempting to have a radio box when the YES is selected to require another field to be completed. The script I was provided with is:
getField("Location").required = (getField("Group1").value == "Yes");
Location being the field that I require to be filled in if Group 1 is Yes. The previous forum helper indicated that I had to have this script in both fields in Group 1 and when I do that, nothing different happens.
What am I doing wrong?
Please, I need to fix this right away and I will be using this java script on many other forms that I have so I need to get this done soon.
Thank you in advance.

Wht you want can get somewhat complicated. One way to prevent subsequent fields from being used is to set them to read-only and/or hidden. You could then use the Validate event of the text field to validate the entry and enable the subsequent fields if it is filled-in adequately. In general, you should also reset the fields whenever you hide them, so they don't contain potentially invalid data from previously being filled-in. So you could initially have the fields set to be hidden, and only unhide them if No is selected, or if Yes is selected and the required text field is filled-in.
I realize this may not be as helpful as you had hoped for, but I can't suggest specific code without knowing more about the form.

Help with a routine please

Hi experts!
I have a requirement and I need help with an abap routine.
I'm uploading a table from de ECC where each record contains one key figure per fiscal period (wlt01, wlt02,...wlt16). I need to have in a dso a unique key figure (called zwlt for instance) and the 0fiscper infoobject filled with the corresponding period, that is, for each record of the table, I need 16 records in the DSO with zwlt = wltXX and the fiscper = fiscyear&0&XX.
Any help please?
Thanks in advance.

there are multiple ways to handle this.
one way is to use APD to unpivot the data.
or else you can use the following sample code to derive what you want...this code might just hint at the way to proceed.

Help with UILabel subclass please

Hello all... I have a UILabel subclass I call CustomLabel. Ive been googling and reading the apple docs this entire week to figure this out. The few examples Ive seen, I dont think Im doing it right.
Im trying to create a subclass to use throughout my project. Every label will have these properties so I figured why not subclass. So through a lot of trial and error I ended up with this...
CustomLabel.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface CustomLabel : UILabel {
@property (nonatomic) CGSize shadowOffset;
@property (nonatomic) UITextAlignment *textAlignment;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIColor *shadowColor;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIColor *textColor;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIColor *backgroundColor;
@property (nonatomic, retain) UIFont *font;
@end
CustomLabel.m
#import "CustomLabel.h"
#import "Constants.h"
@implementation CustomLabel
@synthesize textColor;
@synthesize backgroundColor;
@synthesize font;
@synthesize shadowColor;
@synthesize shadowOffset;
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame {
if ((self = [super initWithFrame:frame])) {
self.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
self.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
self.font = SMALL_CHALKDUSTER;
self.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0f green:0.0f blue:0.0f alpha:0.35f];
self.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake (0, 2);
self.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
return self;
- (void)dealloc {
[super dealloc];
@end
I then allocate a label like so...
ViewController.h
CustomLabel *myLabel;
@property (nonatomic, retain) CustomLabel *myLabel;
ViewController.m
myLabel = [[CustomLabel alloc] init];
myLabel.text = @"Blah blah blah";
I feel like Im way off on this... I must be since it isnt setting any of the properties Im trying to use in the subclass.
I found an older post on the forums here for setting the textAlignment but for some reason I couldnt apply the same logic to mine.
So can anyone help me with this subclass please and thank you?

xnav... thanks a ton for pointing me to this link. Its got me closer to my end goal than I was before. Right now I have...
CustomLabel.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface CustomLabel : UILabel {

#import "CustomLabel.h"
#import "Constants.h"

As you can see I have a couple of things commented out. LOL I still cant figure out how to make the background color clear. I also dont know if I need the dealloc in this subclass. But the other properties seem to be working like the font and line color.
Thanks again for the link and getting me in the right direction xnav. If you can lend any more assistance on how to get that darn background color clear I would appreciate it!
