How can I take a Snapshot via JavaScript?

I need to set up a button that takes a Snapshot.
Right now I have a button that arranges the view and then displays instructions for opening the Snapshot tool and single clicking the page.
However, if the user changes the view before taking the picture, key information is lost.
What JavaScript code would produce the same result as opening the 'Take a Snapshot' tool and single clicking the page?
That would be the ideal solution, but if there is another way, I'm open to suggestions.

Each form has a large amount of logic determining what options are available depending on what size, control, attachments, ect that have been selected further up the form.
The option categories and number of option categories are all different for different product groups. Different settings need to be specified by the customer if they have selected particular combinations of options. It would be hugly complicated to combine them all together. And it wouldn't be pretty or easy to navigate through hundreds of settings to see what applies to your product...
Maybe one day, when I have mastered creating PDFs. But even so, the file size would be larger and I would expect it to be slower + more random crashing. Trouble shooting or making any fundamental changes would be difficult.

  • How can I add a watermark via JavaScript that includes the current datestamp?

    Part of my daily work process here is to scan in a huge stack of inbound mail. I then OCR the scans, delete the blank pages, and add a watermark. I've got a batch process set up for the first two steps, but I can't make a watermark for the datestamp itself and need to do so via JavaScript, but I have a luddite-level understanding of it.
    As of right now, these are my settings I'm using to add the datestamp:
    What I want to do is run a script to do the same thing and insert the current date where I have mm-dd-yy currently, but I don't have the first clue of where to start. Any help you could offer would be hugely appreciated

    You can use the doc.addWatermarkFromText() method as a JavaScript step in an Action.
    for example
    var dt = new Date();
    var stoday = (dt.getMonth() + 1) + '-' + dt.getDate() + '-' + dt.getFullYear();
    this.addWatermarkFromText({
    cText: "Deposit\r" + stoday,
    nTextAlign: app.constants.align.right,
    nHorizAlign: app.constants.align.right,
    nVertAlign: app.constants.align.top,
    nHorizValue: -72, nVertValue: -72
    See the SDK Help files for information on what all the parameters do.

    It seems neither BDC nor Enhancement.
    See it could be some awkward process but definately would be Handy.
    First create one dummy program in that code you just Take Excel data by simple Upload FM for Excel,Than from this program Use Submit <report> via selection screen.
    Here <report> is your actual program.so you may need simultaneously control two program.

  • How can i browse FP 2000 via serial port same use Ethernet port(RJ 45)?

    I am a new user for  labview.I develope my program with FP 2000 but I have some problem
      1 How can i browse FP 2000 via serial port same use Ethernet port(RJ 45)? if it can Tell me please.
      2 If  I use GSM/GPRS modem via FP 2000 rs 232 port (I under stand how to send AT command) and leave it stand alone
         Can I dial modem and browse file in FP 2000 same as use Ethernetport?
    Someone please help me.Thank you very much.

    Hi!
        First, I can say that your project involves many things, I cannot describe all features in the forum, and I'm not used with GPRS modems (my modems are base band serial modems...).
        Anyway, I would say that in your project you should proceed like this:
          1) Configure your FP 2000 module via MAX and ethernet connection;
          2) Download an embedded application to your module (build in LabView Real-Time)
          3) In your application, you should build a kind of serial port manager, and by the means of serial port you send/receive commands from PC.
        The commands from PC can include "Tell me the about the FP 2000 file system ", or "switch on line X", or anything you need.
       I think it would be difficult to use Internet exp, because you use IE with TCP/IP, and TCP/IP is over ethernet.
       I know that for Windows you can find some wrappers that make you "see" the serial port as an ethernet, but these wrapper do not exist under filed Point, and you shoul build one yourself!!!(and that's not easy).
        For example, to browse your files, you should build a VI that searches through your file system, and reports, via serial, the files present in a directory (it's an example....).
        About communication between GPRS modems and FP2000, I know nothing.  I suppose that these modems accept serial inputs, so you'll have to configure your serial port on FP 2000 with the correct baud rate, parity, and so on..... and you send your data to the modem.  The modem will transfer data in its way, no matter on how it does.
        To send data to your modem you shoud take a look to some Serial communication examples.  What I suggest you, first, is to connect the serial port of FP2000 to a PC, and test communication between PC and FP2000, without modems. Just direct cable connection!  If you're able to do this, insertion of modems is the next step, and should be quite easy.  If you're not able to make the PC receive strings of data from FP2000, over  RS232, adding modems is a further complication, and you won't come out of this mess!
       So, what I say, is just build, for now, a simple embedded application for FP2000, that, using RS232, sends data to a PC (you should see data sent with use of Hyper terminal).
        To build this application, use Instrument I/O --> VISA commands (VISA open, VISA write, and Property node should be enough, for now).
       Please, let me know if this helps......
        Have a nice (programming) day!

  • Can I control an Applet via JavaScript?????????????

    Please Guys! Can I control an applet via JavaScript?
    How????????????
    Thanks
    Renato

    Great to see you back, bbritta! Problems with the
    reauthentication stuff?The reauthentication was just another annoyance. I was getting fed up with answering posts for a variety of reasons (mostly because I don't have the patience you seem to have).
    I got assigned to modify some old ColdFusion code. I thought it would be a nice change of pace having never done it before. Yick... Gak... I should have started over with JSP's, but the user insisted they wanted the old code modified. I have never seen so much cut and paste coding in my life. They actually got hold of the old developer and he was so proud of his code that I didn't have the heart to tell him what I thought of his efforts.
    Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, I ran into a problem with an applet I wrote about a year ago and wanted to search the bug database. I reauthenticated fairly easily, but found out nothing had changed.
    A couple of days ago, there was a post in advanced topics asking if the forums were any use. I saw Dana respond and I thought it might be a chance to discuss some of the problems I saw with the forum. I came back to see if there was any response, but it looks like there will never be any meaningful discussion between Sun & the members about the forums.
    I have tried for a couple of years to just post a link to a search page if the answer could be easily found by searching. It seemed like a better thing to do than just saying 'Do a search!' I'm not sure anybody gets it though.

  • How can we take the incremental export using the datapump at schema level.

    Hi,
    How can we take the incremental export using the datapump at schema level. Example, today i had taken the full export of one schema.
    After 7 days from now , how can i take the export of change data , from the data of my full export.
    using the export datapump parameter - FLASHBACK_TIME ,can we mention the date range. Example sysdate - (sysdate -7)
    Please advice
    thanks
    Naveen.

    Think of the Data Pump Export/Import tools as taking a "picture" or "snapshot."
    When you use these utilities it exports the data as it appears (by default) while it's doing the export operation. There is no way to export a delta in comparison to a previous export.
    The FLASHBACK_TIME parameter allows you to get a consistent export as of a particular point in time.
    I recommend you go to http://tahiti.oracle.com. Click on your version and go to the Utilities Guide. This is where all the information on Data Pump is located and should answer a lot of your questions.

  • How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    How can I take a photo on my iPhone then save it into a second Album, not Camera Roll?

    All photos captured or saved with the iPhone are stored in the Camera Roll which cannot be changed.
    You can create an album to place photos in that are in the Camera Roll which does not duplicate the photo. It creates a pointer to the original photo stored in the Camera Roll. If the original is deleted from the Camera Roll, it will be removed from the album as well.
    Import the photos from the Camera Roll with your computer as with any other digital camera followed by deleting the photos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. Create an album or albums for the imported photos on your computer followed by transferring the albums from your computer via the iTunes sync process which is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

    Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
    Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
    But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
    If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
    I can't  download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
    You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
    If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

  • How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro and go back to using Snow Leopard

    How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro because it has too much problems with the new operating system, I have talked to Apple support for both computers and still nothing happens I think they know that there's something wrong and they don't know how to fix it are there working on fixing it. So how can I put snow leopard Mac on my computer so that it works every time, there's a lot of good features in Lion but there's a lot of bad features and especially when it comes to turning on your computer and the memory that it has held so if one item is missing then it doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer to get it to work but I still like my Mac.
