How do I create a text insertion of the current time? My "date

My "date & time" stamp under Insert only prints the date. I can edit it to include the time each time I use it, but this is a real bother, as I use it often and want the time included. Actually I want a separate time stamp to keep track of time spent on specific projects. If there is no separate time stamp in Pages (hard to believe), can I create one that will print the current time without including the date? Second best: edit the "date & time" to always and automatically include the time?

Right click on the date after inserting > Edit Date & Time > Choose the Time only option
There is no way I know to have it default to this unfortunately.
You can try inserting the start time and have an updating time in a Table and calculate the difference, but the problem is the update only happens on reopening the document, not on saving.
You are better off using Billings to do all this for you:

How do I create a new calendar for the current year, using last years calendar's birthday's/photos and comments from the lower pages?

Each year for the past 5 years I make a family calendar and send copies to all he family members around the globe. I hate that I have to recreate all the birthdays and special occasions from scratch, and re-drag all the photos onto these dates, in the lower half of the page of each month on the new calendar. How can I create a new calendar for the current year and port all of these photos/comments into the new calendar from last years calendar, to save having to redo all this work!! I am not talking about the upper half page of the photos only...I am referring to the calendar page of each month.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Open iWeb so you see your original site in the left hand pane. Use the File->New Site menu option to create a new site. Give it the name you want.
Now select a page in your original site and type Command+D. That will duplicate the page. Drag the duplicate page down to the new site and rename it as needed. Do that for the other pages you need in the original site.

How to a composition from project insert into the current composition?

How to a composition(specific name) from current project insert into the current composition?

Good point about checking the name of the current comp, but then you don't need to enter the loop if the name ofthe object you find is the name of the current comp:
function insertComp(name)
     var proj = app.project;
     var comp = proj.activeItem;
     if ( comp != null && comp instanceof CompItem)
          var foundIt = null;
          var curItem;
          if(comp.name != name)
               for(var a=1; a<=proj.numItems && foundIt == null; a++)
                    curItem = proj.item(a);
                    if(curItem instanceof CompItem && curItem.name == name)
                           foundIt = curItem;
               if (foundIt != null)
                    app.beginUndoGroup("Insert Comp");
                    try
                         comp.layers.add(foundIt);
                         alert("All done!");
                    catch (err)
                         alert(err);
                    app.endUndoGroup();
               else
                    alert("Not found");
          else
               alert("Can't add item to itself.");
     else
          alert("Open a comp first.");

How can I create checkbox as many as the current table column?

I have an table that binds from emploeyeeView,.. I want to create some checkbox as many as the number of the column that is shown,..how can i do that?
thanks,
Amir,,..

You are going to want a <af:selectManyCheckbox>. Try this:
<af:selectManyCheckbox label="Label 1" value="#{myBackingBean.selectedAttributes}>
<af:forEach items="#{bindings.EmpView1Iterator.attributeDefs}"
var="item">
<af:selectItem value="#{item.name}" label="#{item.name}"/>
</af:forEach>
</af:selectManyCheckbox>In the backing bean named "myBackingBean" there will be a "String[] selectedAttributes" with getter and setter methods. When the form is submitted, this will contain the names of the attributes that the user selected.

How would I create a Summary Chart for the Current Year Using a Count by Month?

Post Author: MarkS
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
I have a data set of 3 date fields. I would like to create a summary counting all of the occurrances of each of these dates per month, similar to using a SumProduct() command in excel.
For example, my data is as follows:
Registered Date |    Application Date   |   Sale Date
1/1/2007             |      2/1/2007            |     2/20/2007
1/10/2007           |      2/1/2007            |     3/20/2007
2/20/2007           |      3/10/2007          |     3/20/2007
I would like to summarize this information by month as follows:
                      | Jan '07   |   Feb '07 | Mar '07 | TOTAL
Registered      |      2        |   1           |    0         |   3
Applications    |     0         |   2           |   1          | 3
Sales             |     0         |   1            | 2            | 3
TOTAL           |   2            | 4            | 3            | 9
Is there any way to do this?

Post Author: V361
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Yes, but it will require some effort. Group on "Sale Date" Change the group to group by month.   You can then create a running total for "Registered Date","Application Date"," Sale Date"      For Registered date, I used Field to summarize Registered Date, Type of summary was count, Evaluate use a formula, reset on change of group 1 (I only have one group, "Sale Date") The formula will look like this.
month ({Registered Date }) in [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]
You would build your other running totals (Counts) using the same methods,
Once you have these, you should be able to create your chart.

How to display the current time in a UIX page

Hi All,
another UIX question....
A requirement of a customer is to display to current data and time in every page.
It should be done in a <header>. So i'm writing a new (template based) renderer for that element. How can i display the current time and date on it?
Thanks in advance for any help...
Regards,
Robert Willems

Hi Robert -
When you say you are writing a template-based Renderer, do you mean that you are creating a custom look and feel and replacing the header Renderer? If so, I'd recommend instead simply creating your own template (not template-based Renderer), and reference your template directly from your uiXML pages where you want to insert the timestamp.
You'll probably want to write a method data provider which calls System.currentTime(), convert the result to a date, and then use Java's date formatting capabilities (see java.text.format.DateFormat) to produce a user presentable String that you can return from your data provider.
For more info (and samples) on templates and data binding, see the "Templates and Data Binding" section of the "Includes and Templating in ADF UIX" help topic:

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word.

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word in the document. I am teacher. So for example when a student came to word he/she did not know, if he/she hovered the cursor over the word, a defintion or other information would appear. You can do this in Word using bookmarks/hyperlinks but I can't figure this out in Pages. I can link it to another point in my Pages document but I just need the text to pop up - not take the reader to another location. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Have you tried Word for Mac?
You will need to test if links survive export or printing to .pdf

My problem:
1)
I am not able to write to the file. I want to know, where i am going wrong.
It is giving error message like
"Canot resolve Symbol: temp,"
But, FileWriter Constructor should accept a File type parameter.
here temp is a file parameter.
If i am not using file=new file();
i can't delete the file after the use. i.e if i use
PrintWriter p = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("cute.txt",true)));
how can i delete cute.txt after the use?
2)
I am not able to write to the text file. file is created but, a blank file.
"Hello" is not written into the text file.
can anyone help me in this regard
Thanks in advance
Ashvini

Thank you Ram,
But, i want to create a text file in Append mode.
for that i used
FileWriter fos = new FileWriter(temp,true); But, it is not accepting FileWriter constructor in
this format. if i use
FileWriter fos = new
FileWriter("c:/ash/cute.txt",true); it works fine. !!!!!Here's the javadoc
public FileWriter(File file,
boolean append)
throws IOExceptionConstructs a FileWriter object given a File object. If the second argument is true, then bytes will be written to the end of the file rather than the beginning.
Parameters:
file - a File object to write to
append - if true, then bytes will be written to the end of the file rather than the beginning
Throws:
IOException - if the file exists but is a directory rather than a regular file, does not exist but cannot be created, or cannot be opened for any other reason
Since:
1.4
Are you using jdk.13 or lower ?
>
ONe more doubt, Does flush method deletes a file?
if not, then i need to use
File temp=new File("c:/ash/cute.txt");
FileWriter fos = new FileWriter(temp,true); //which
is again a problem
if(temp.delete())
out.println("File is deleted");
}I don't know whether i am taking it wrong ! or
anything wrong with my coding ! but, after creating
and writing data into a text file. I must delete it
as it contains confidential informations.
Regards,
Thanks.'flush' writes to a file immediately. Else you should explicitly call 'flush' to write contents from buffer to underlying source.
javadoc again
PrintWriter
public PrintWriter(Writer out,
boolean autoFlush)Create a new PrintWriter.
Parameters:
out - A character-output stream
autoFlush - A boolean; if true, the println, printf, or format methods will flush the output buffer

Question; What do you gain by opening a file, writing to it and deleting it in the same program ?

What is the best way to import a graphic? & How do I create a text frame for a figure caption?

Hello all! I've been working from the FM book for almost 2 hrs trying to figure this out, so now I need your help. I am almost to this point:
Problem I: Importing a graphic
First of all, which is the best way?
-Insert an anchor frame and then import the graphic into the frame OR
-Just insert the graphic and get the anchor frame by default
Here’s my importing and sizing problem:
I hit ENTER to make a new paragraph line (side note: the book says make a new paragraph by hitting ENTER, import the graphic, and then ESC m+p to shrink wrap so that you can avoid the graphic overlapping the above text. I do exactly this (I believe), but my graphic still overlaps the above text when I shrink wrap. What the...?)
I insert an anchored frame with position Below Current Line and alignment CENTER (I chose to the insert anchor frame, since this way I have control over its alignment, correct?)
Anchor frame is selected when I import my image file
In the Imported Graphic Scaling box, what do I select if my file is HUGE (3072x2304)?
-Fit in selected rectangle (when I choose this the image imports small and fits in the anchored frame with lots of white space around it)
-72 dpi
-75 dpi
-150 dpi
-300 dpi
-Custom dpi: 96 (I’ve tried changing this to a smaller number (20) and I get a message that says “cannot handle a bitmap of that size.”)
I’ve had the best luck with selecting FIT IN SELECTED RECTANGLE, and then I just scale the image with my shift+click. If I choose 72 dpi or Custom, my image imports HUGE, and I just can’t manage it. I don’t have a method for resizing these images outside of FM.
Problem II: Creating a text frame for a caption
Once I have chosen FIT IN SELECTED RECTANGLE, I try to insert a text box underneath the image (and inside the anchor frame) to type a caption in it.
In Create New Text Frame box, the default is Number 1 and Gap 0.25. I click SET.
Next, I double-click inside the text frame to begin typing, but the cursor is OUTSIDE and UNDERNEATH the text frame! What the heck??? I’ve done this before and it has worked just fine. Then I had another problem where when I did get the text inside the text frame, I would select the text frame to move it, and it left the text behind! (I moved the frame but the text was separated from it and left behind.)
THANK YOU in advance for your help. I hope I wrote this out clearly enough. I appreciate those who respond. P.S. I'm in FM 10.

My favorite method is to use a one-cell table for graphics and captions.
Import the graphic by reference into the table cell. Create a "Caption"
paragraph tag and assign it to the table title. (The title can be set
for above or below the table cell. I prefer below.) Now, whenever you
insert this table, it will be ready for graphic and caption. Another
advantage of this method is that graphic and caption always stay
together at page/column breaks.
When you create the table format above, assign it to have a -2.0 space
above. Then, create a paragraph tag, such as "TableAnchor" and assign it
-2.0 pt font size and -2.0 space below. (You can substitute a different
point size, but it must be the same in all three places. The TableAnchor
paragraph will hold the table and these settings let tables fit against
the top margin where necessary. Otherwise, they dip down a bit.
I wrote this from memory, so I hope I remembered all the steps!

I realize AI is an illustration program.
Do you realize it is an object-based vector-based program? Do you know the difference between raster-based and vector-based content?
My question seems to be all over the forum but no one has been able to answer other than exporting to these file formats, which make text look awful and of no use....
And yet everyone else in the world makes proper web images every day using a plethora of programs, including these...go figure.
Am I missing something?
Yep. Pretty much.
Hello Adobe! People use transparency on website logos.
Hello, cocteau! What you're calling "transparency" is inherent to object-based vector artwork. But web browsers don't support object-based vector artwork, except via file formats like Flash and SVG, or by viewing as a PDF in a plug-in version of Reader. Raster imaging in general only supports "transparency" by either indexing a specific color (i.e.; "don't display this color", as in GIF) or including an alpha channel (i.e.; "blend all the pixels with existing pixels, based on values from this extra channel", as in PNG). It's all in the raster file format you use, cocteau; it has little-to-nothing to do specifically with Adobe software. Such things are among the most basic matters understood by someone doing web design.
When I export an eps from .ai file, and open the eps in photoshop,...I save as a gif for the web, it goes back to the original problem...creates jagged text. I"m giving up on this garbage...Thanks a lot adobe! Lower the price of this software if this is all that can be done.
Once it leaves Photoshop (or Illustrator, or whatever) as a non-proprietary raster image format, it's all about what the format can do re "transparency". You can do this stuff with most any graphics program. You should read about basic web design and the differences between raster and vector content, rather than rant.

Hey Gary,
Have a look at this post: Re: horizontal scrolling similar to excel
Andy's reply will show you how to make a table scroll horizontally, but it will be tough to accomplish it in some sort of easily replicable way. I am working on a JQuery extension that will help accomplish this, but I have had my time invested in another project at the moment.
Good Luck,

How do I create transparent text with gradient stroke?

I'm creating text that will be printed on a deep gray to black tshirt.
I created text, added an offset path to it with a gradient, and a deep gray color fill on top, achieving the gradient stroke. However, I'm not exactly sure what color the shirt itself will be, other than deep gray to black. And I didn't want the deep gray/black fill in my text to appear and look awkward on the shirt. Unless that is something I shouldn't be considered about.
To be safe, how would you create transparent text with a gradient stroke? I'm using Illustrator CS5.

aimsrandom,
Based on a guess that you wish to have the stroke fade into the basic tshirt colour, you may use transparency rather than colour.
But the transparent text in the headline raises a few questions.
No fill colour for the Type/text, or different fill and (basic) stroke colour, or?
