How can different people work on different tabs of one form

Dear OTN Users,
We are developing Client-Server application using D2K tools.
We are using the new feature TAB of Forms 5.0 in our current
development.
We are currently have 10 or 12 tabs per form in our application
and we need different people to work on it during development.
How to over come the error of one's work overwriting other's work.
All of them will be working on different tabs.
Thanks in advance for you help

It's a really bad idea to have more than one person working on a
single Form at one time. However, if you must...
Try getting everything in the Form, except for your tabs,
working first. Then take 12 copies of your Form (one for each
tab) and give a copy to each of the 12 developers. Make sure
that they name any objects that they create uniquely: this
includes any blocks, procedures, tab canvases etc - nominate one
person as 'design master' and make sure that anyone clears any
new object names with the design master before creating them.
When they have finished developing and testing their code
individual for each of the single tab Forms, get someone to
create a thirteenth Form, and then merge in all the objects
created for the first tab. You can do this relatively easily by
opening two Forms at the same time, and dragging the items from
one Form to another.
If you're feeling really clever, and you will have lot of
maintenance to do on the Form, then you could reference the
objects rather than copy them: in this case you would need to
keep your 13 forms in perpetuity, but you could have parallel
maintenance going on. However you decide to do it, be sure that
you have a comprehensive test plan!
You will find that you may save some time in this way, but it
will take more man-hours (though less elapsed time) to develop
the Form in this way, than by having a single person develop the
whole Form.

  • How can 2 people working on different locations collaborate on imovie?

    Hi,
    My cousin and I were trying to work on a movie for my Grandma's b'day. It is basically a bunch of pictures with music. We are located in different countries. I was hoping she could work on the project and then send the project file to me (before sharing to quicktime or anything like that). When she wanted to attach it to an email, the mac would not let her do it.
    Is there an easy way two people can work on the same imovie project without sending it back and forth? Or if she has to send it, what format is best?
    Thanks in advance!

    iMHD6 puts all data of a project into a single file.. but, 1h project in Standard = ~13GBs data.. (HiDef projects much more..).
    you can not 'mail' such large files, due to limitations most ISPs set to attachments ..
    services as yousharetit.com or rapidshare.com probably allow it .. but the UPload of such files takes hours, if not days ..
    Plan A)
    use 'snail mail', send a usb-mem-stick (16GB = ~40€) or a small 2.5" harddrive with data ..
    note: BEFORE usage of stick, erase/format it to 'mac' ...
    Plan B)
    you edit your own, let your cousin send you by mail the pics and music only ..

  • Can any one tell me how can I move to a different folder pictures, that I've cloned, without them staying aggregated? They all come together to the other folder and I don't want that- thanks

    There's more to it than that.
    Folders in Aperture do not hold Images.  They hold Projects and Albums.  You cannot put an Image in a Folder without putting it in a Project or an Album inside that Folder.
    The relationship between Projects and Images is special:  every Image must in a Project, and can be in only one Project.
    Images can be in as many Albums you want.  Putting an Image in an Album does not move it from the Project that holds it.
    You can make as many Versions from a Master as you want.
    What you want to do may appear simple to you, but it still much adhere to how Aperture works.  I still can't tell exactly what you are trying to do (specifically: Images don't live in Folders; moving an Image from a Folder is non-sensical).
    It can be very confusing (and frustrating) to get going with Aperture -- but it does work, and can be enormously helpful.  If you haven't, take a look at the video tutorials on Apple's Aperture support site.
    I feel as though I haven't helped you much -- but we need to be using the same names for interface items in order to get anything done -- and my sense is that you still haven't learned the names of the parts.

  • Can two users work on different files of the same project?

    Sorry if this has been asked already...but can two users work
    on different files of the same project? How would that work? Would
    it work something like this?
    1. From RoboHelp 7, user A checks out the entire project.
    2. User A checks in the files they are not working with.
    3. User B checks out the project but can only 'edit' the
    files that have been checked in by user A.
    Is this how the source control works?

    That's the basic idea. User A doesn't actually have to check
    out the whole project, though. RSC will selectively check out only
    the files that are actually getting changed. Both writers will have
    a complete copy of the project on their local machines, but the
    files are read-only until they are literally checked out, which is
    on an as-needed basis unless the writer explicitly checks them out.

  • How can I change to a different user on iPad

    Unlike a computer, an iPad is designed for a single user.  You can't set up separate user accounts for multiple people on an iPad and give each user their own workspace.

  • How can I share between 2 different accounts.  we have a clinic that serves pediatics and unfortunately, they set up two different accounts within our agency.

    How can we share between two different accounts on the same iPad?  We have a therapy clinic with 2 devices and want to share apps. I did not set up the second one, but how can we fix this ?

         Hi Rosdy, to get the most out of iCloud it is recommended that you use the same account between devices. Thus whenever you buy something on your phone it becomes accessible from your laptop regardless of whether your synced it over usb or not. *
         For more information on iCloud usage please click here.
    * This feature requires that both devices be on the same WiFi network.

  • How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    How can i share documents with different users on the same mac?

    Shared how? The other users can read the documents or you all can read and write the documents?
    The first is easy just place the documents in /Users/Shared anyone can access the files there and the other users will be able to read them.
    The second is a bit trickier.

    Have the project, events and media on one drive which is common to both macs.
    You can download FCP X to both macs using the same Apple ID that it was purchased with.

  • Question: I think I made mistakes using several different id apple. How can I cancel all of them except the one I would like to maintain ?

    Question: I think I made mistakes using several different id apple. How can I cancel all of them except the one I would like to maintain ?

    From Here   http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • How can you set (or reset) different page sizes within 1 pdf?

    I am working on a pdf with various page sizes.  Say one page at 8-1/2 x 11, another at 11 x 17, and another at 22 x 34.  I obviously can't print as "Choose paper source by PDF page size" as one printer can't do all sizes.  I would like to change the 22 x 34 to 11 x 17.  How can I change the page size setting of one page within a multiple-paged pdf?

    You can play with the Crop tool. You'll find it is easier to "size up" than "size down".
    May have to extract and bin PDF pages by the virtual page size then work on them.
    However, if all you want is to have the content on hard copy and having that on a common sheet size (say Letter) then consider this alternative:
    Make a working copy of the PDF.
    With the PDF open in Acrobat, open the Pages panel. Expand the panel width as desired.
    Now, Ctrl click through the PDF page thumbnails that have a landscape orientation.
    Rotate these 90 degrees to a portrait orientation.
    Alt+D+T or Shift+Ctrl+R
    Save as you go.
    With all pages in a portrait orientation, use the attached printer to print.
    In the Print dialog locate the entry for 'page scaling' and select Fit or Shrink to Printable Area.
    All PDF pages' content will be scaled such that all page content fits in an imprint on the Letter size paper.
    Or, go the other way and have the imprint of PDF page content fill a larger sheet size.
    Just a function of what the printer accepts for paper size and the features provided in the printer driver.
    Be well....

  • How can 2 people use itunes in the same household? we both have iphone 4 and separate id but the same itunes? pleasehelp

           how can two people use itunes in the same household? i had a iphone before so alreday had an itunes account now me and my husband have upgraded and we now both have them. he has set up a username and i have mine yet when he logs in he seems to just get my account? please help

    Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also have to email your notes to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account as they cannot be migrated.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa).

  • How can I have multiple WINDOWS (NOT tabs) with INDEPENDENT content?

    How can I have multiple '''windows''' (''not ''tabs) with '''independent''' content?
    I used to be able to open separate windows with Firefox, and the content could be completely different in each window. No matter what I did in any window, no OTHER window open at the time, nor any of the content therein, was affected. This is no longer the case and it is extremely frustrating for me.
    I do ''not ''like tabs and do not use them. I prefer multiple windows plus I am so used to using them, for so many years now! But with v9.0.1 I suddenly can no longer do what I've always done with my browser without this aggravating problem constantly reminding me that I can't have what I want in firefox anymore.
    Or can I? Does anyone have a solution I don't realize exists?
    Thanks,
    Sowelu

    AppleScriptObjC can use pretty much everything in the Cocoa API, so yes, it is possible.
    Note that a view is not the same as a window, and a window can have multiple views. There are also many ways to implement "tabs";  take a look at some of Apple's applications - they use various mixtures of toolbars, checkboxes, and radio buttons, for example.  An application such as this will be a lot more involved than what you have done so far though, using custom classes and subclassing existing ones, so be prepared to do a lot of reading and researching.
