How do I make a sort of bumpy, uneven line?
Hi everyone, Illustrator newbie here:p I was wondering how I could create a bumpy-ish, uneven line like the black outlines in the image of this t-shirt: http://store.delias.com/item.do?itemID=57535&categoryID=2571 (you can zoom in by mousing over). Any help much appreciated. Thanks!
The roughen filter will do what you want. Keep the detail and size at a low value will create a similar effect to what is used in that image on the stalk (I assume thats what you meant, if not maybe you could explain a bit better).

How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
I myself think that (for instance) "A tribe called Quest" should be sorted under "A", not "T".
Now I can edit the sort options manually per track and/or per selection, but I would really like to just kill this "iTunes-knows-how-you-should-sort"-feature in iTunes.
Anyone any suggestion on how to do that?
ThanksHere is a modified version of one of Doug's Scripts. My modification was to add Sort Name to the list of tags that could be changed. I tried it on a single track and it worked. I recommend backing up your library first. Select the tracks you want to change (or all tracks) and run the script from the Applescript Editor. If it works as intended, save it so you can apply it to newly imported tracks. And, yes, I know this isn't the exact answer to your question, you want to change a preference setting in iTunes (if there is such a setting).
Original script can be forund at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=thistagthattag
Modified script is below. Start up Applescript Editor, paste it into a new window. Start up iTunes and select the tracks to modify. Click Run in the Applescript Editor. Follow the instructions.
(* Put This In That

How can I make the sort default "by date" in iPhoto?
On one of my computers, every time I load an event, it goes to the top of the library and I have to go to "sort/by date" to get it to go to the end or bottom of the library...where I want it.
On my other computers, the default seems to be "by date" normally....
How can I make the default sort option "by date?"
Thanks.I am not by that computer now. But that makes sense.
I combine events that are imported into that iPhoto. I suppose that would qualify as manually sorting....right?
Still, shouldn't there be a way to overide that and make "date" the default. That is, if your observation is correct.
(I'll take a look tomorrow....)
Thanks!! -
How can I make Color Tags color the whole line?!
All,
I have been using Color Tags every since they first appeared on the Mac. It WAS great to color code files and folder of which I now have hundreds done that way. Problem is that now Apple has done away with the easy to see, easy to use colored line and replaced it with a stupid tiny dot. How can I get my colored lines back? Why does Apple keep changing things that have worked for year into things the are HARDER to use?
Thanks,
Dan"Labels" has been changed to "Tags" in Mavericks. It appears that you cannot modify the appearance of Tags in Mavericks at this point.
There have been several threads on the subject in this forum, and the some of the suggested solutions are to revert your OS back to the system you had prior to Mavericks, or investigate 3rd party software such as Pathfinder, which allow you to modify the presentation in the finder -

Apple does not monitor these threads, so the only way to make sure way to make sure Apple hears your opinion on this is to give your feedback directly to Apple:

I put an automatic signature beneath each outgoing email, and that signature includes a URL. I've sent emails to myself in both my Yahoo and Hotmail accounts, and the URL does not come through as live. That is, I can't just click on it and go.

how do i do this? please help!
thank you!Hi, and welcome to Apple discussions and the pages '09 forum.
Check the article _Creating Placeholders in Custom Templates_ in Chapter 13, *Designing Your Own Document Templates* of the Pages '09 User Guide.
The guide is can be downloaded through the Help menu in Pages. The article is on page 267.
You may have to put the placeholder into a Text Box to retain the position of other text on the page.
Note that the client will require Pages '09 on his/her machine to open a Pages file.

How can I make columns appear, so that info lines up on a page?
So, I'm creating a resume as one of the pages for my website on iWeb.
When I took the info from a table in mac Pages and placed it on the page, it landed in one tall column, and I had to manually space it out. The tab doesn't even work to space it. And to make everything line up from one row to the next, I had to choose a even width font (courier).
When I look at the published website on my mac, the columns are lined up.
When I look at it on a pc, the columns are not.
What can I do?Read my blog :

How can i make x-axis even distribution in line chart?
can i change the min value, max value of x-axis?
For a line chart, the answer is : NO
In this charts, the X axis isn't a numeric one. It's just one with labels.
On the screenshot, compare the chart 2 (line one) and the chart 4 which is a scatter chart.
This late one behave as a true numeric one and it allow us to set min and max values.

How can I make my user input on the same line as the question?
The only way I know of doing it is
System.out.println ("Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet: ");
letter = dataIn.readLine ();But that makes Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet:
**User input here, a line down**So how can I make it all fit into one line with this sort of layout:
Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet: **USER INPUTS HERE, SAME LINE**change your call from println to print.

How to switch of Column sorting in the Web (7.0)
Hi All,
In my 7.0 created Web report I get a sorting icon in each column header. It's probably a basic question but how can I make these sorting icons disappear from my report? Probably a analysis item setting, but I can't find it.
Many thanks,
RonHi,
you can use a command to custome a report, report Interface (RRI).
You have to customize it with the transaction RSBBS (jump).
You define a sender your query andf receveir another query.
Then you can use a standard web item = Button group.
In the internal display you custom a button. In menu you choose ' Command via command wiaizar' -> all command -> command for data provider -> Basic data provider command -> RRI
Hope it helps -
How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?
How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?
Currently, I'm using
table.setAutoCreateRowSorter(true);to allow the user to sort the table.
However, I want to be able to load something based on the selected row's index. The problem is that when the table is rearranged, the change appears to only be local, in other words, the actual table isn't changing.
For instance:
index 0 "A"
index 1 "B"
index 2 "C"
Sorted in reverse gives me
"C"
"B"
"A"
But C is still index 2 (instead of 0).
Thanks in advance.Cross posted and answered in the Swing forum.

How to change the default sorting in iTunes
Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the default sorting method for all items in iTunes? I use the third option for organizing the library as a whole (the one that has a list of icons for bands that you double click to show only that band's songs). The only sorting method I use is to sort by Album by Year (ascending), this makes the most sense to me. I can tell that iTunes is attempting to remember when I do this for certain artists, but it epically fails at maintaining this sorting pattern.
To be clear, say I open Radiohead and click through to have it sort with the above method. Everything works great, but when I return a few days later to play Radiohead again, the sorting is not maintained. It could be as simple as sorting in a descending direction, or could even be trying to sort by the number it was added in my library.
I'd really appreciate it if someone knew of a way (maybe even through scripts if possible / the only solution) to eliminate this problem and have every (NOT just the artists who I've told iTunes to sort a specific way) artist sort that way.
I don't know if my copy is just corrupt? It may be, since for some artists it's started playing them in the above mentioned order they were added to my library even if I force a sort by album by year (i.e. it will go from playing a 2007 album to a 2002 album and not the 2008 album).
Thanks!Andrew, I know I am extremely late to the party but I too use Grid View. I had the same problem that you had but have found this to work for me. I used it and it is still holding as my default sorting even after switching between the Artist page and Grid View.
Once you are inside of the Artist page continue to click on the Album column until it shows Album by Artist/Year.
That will give you each album sorted by the year instead of it randomly sorting it for you each time you leave an Artist's page and then back again.
Hope this helps. -
