How do I recolor a bit map layer?

In Photoshop, if I have a bitmap layer that is a simple 1 pixel white line, and I want to recolor it there are several means of doing so: I can use one of the many color adjustment dialogs, or "lock" the layer transparency and then paint right over the object and it will restrict the painting to the parts of the layer that have pixels already.
What tools do I use in Fireworks to simple recolor a bitmap art layer?

If it is a simple line, I'd redraw it as a vector, opening up many
more creative options than just recoloring.

How to set the option Bit-mapped indexes to true ?

Hi,
I a not a an Oracle Administrator. Usually, I just use Oracle as developper. I have got a Oracle 10g database. I can not import data in my database because the Bit-mapped options is not set.

Creating a bit map index on a partitioned table

Dear friends,
I am trying to create a bitmap index on a partitioned table but am receiving the following ORA error. Can you please let me know on how to create a local bit map index as the message suggests?
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-25122: Only LOCAL bitmap indexes are permitted on partitioned tables
Trying to use the keyword local in front leads to wrong syntax.
Thanks in advance !!
Somnath

ORA-25122 Only LOCAL bitmap indexes are permitted on partitioned tables
Cause: An attempt was made to create a global bitmap index on a partitioned table.
Action: Create a local bitmap index instead
Example of a Local Index Creation
CREATE INDEX employees_local_idx ON employees (employee_id) LOCAL;
Example is about btree and I think it will work for bitmap also.

How bit map index works?

I am not getting an example for bitmap index mechanism.
Supposing their is a table T1 with column c1 having records

How bit map index functions?
thanks,

Warning Msg: Character Mode report is being opened as a Bit-mapped report

Hi All,
I am opening a Oracle Standard Report in Oracle Apps "INVISMMX", while opening it shows the below warning message:
"Character Mode report is being opened as a Bit-mapped report"
What is the reason for this?
How can I open this report in ASCII mode itself?
Thanks,
Gowri

I believe Oracle Reports by default will open a report as a bit-mapped report. You can change the poperties of the report to make it a character mode report by:
1. If this is a new report, in the Object Navigator, click the Reports node,
then click in the toolbar.
2. Double-click the properties icon next to the report node to display
the Property Palette.
3. Under the report node, set the width and height properties as desired:
for example, 11 (or 15) width x 8.5 height for landscape or 8.5 width x 11
(or 15) height for portrait.
4. Under the Character Mode node:
a. Set Design In Character Units to Yes.
b. Set the report width and report height to the appropriate
character-mode dimensions for the report, such as, 132 (or 180)
width x 66 height for landscape or 102 width x 85 (or 116) height
for portrait.
5. In the Object Navigator, expand the Data Model node, then the System
Parameters node.
6. Double-click the MODE properties icon to display the Property Palette.
7. Under the Parameter node, set the initial value for property to Character.
8. In the Object Navigator, double-click on the Layout Model node icon.
9. In the Layout Model view, choose FormatLayout OptionsRulers to display
the Ruler Settings dialog box.
10. Set Units to Character Cells and Number of Snap Points Per Grid Spacing
to 1. Click OK.
11. Click View in the menu bar and make sure that Snap to Grid is checked.
12. Choose Tools Preferences to display the Preferences dialog box.
13. On the Preferences page, set Horizontal Interfield to 1 and Vertical
Interfield to 0. Click OK.
14. Choose Format Font, and select the font, style, and size that most
closely approximates the character-mode font (such as, Courier,
Regular, 12 point).

Table name where I can see the Secondary bit map Index for Cube Loads in BI

Hello Friends I want to know the table name where I can see the Secondary bit map Index that gets created with each request that get loaded to Cube so each 1 request will be multiplied by 7 dimension and 7x1 = 7 local secondary bit map index will be created where is that table which show me that .
Under Oracle every uncompressed request corresponds to one partition in the
F facttable of the corresponding infocube. This partition also brings along
a full set of secondary local bitmap index partitions.
If you have a cube with 10 uncompressd requests and 10 dimensions (every
dimension brings with it a local bitmap index) you have 100 partitions for
the table itself and 10 x 10 index partitions which makes a total of
100 database objects. where is that table in BI WHICH STORE THIS INFORMATION
Also if I have E Table with no entries for future 2009 dentries will that be an issue with blank partition ion E Fact table if yes please suggest how to resolve this issue

Hi Soniya
Information about BI objects is stored in the RSD* tables. For example:
Infocubes: RSDCUBE / RSDCUBET
Aggregates: RSDDAGGR_V / RSDDAGGRT
You can see information on abap dictionary object as well in transactions SE11 / SE14. You will have to know the real table name of the cube, should be something like /BIC/F* for the uncompressed and /BIC/E* for the compressed table.
Best regards, Michael

Bit Map Indexing

Hi All
i have a table with 5.5 million records and i have a fields (project id and owner id) with 8400 and 507 distinct values. For reporting reasons i want to create a bit map index on the project id. My question is even though it makes the query faster will it take more space? How can i calculate how much space it takes? Secondly if the ROI is not good for creating index on the project id can i creat index on the second field (owner id) and can still make the query faster?
Thanks

My question is even though it makes the query faster will it take more space? Strange question - indexes are an overhead. Space is needed for an index structure. The structure needs to be maintained when data is added, changed or deleted.
The question is whether these overheads are justified by the increase in performance when reading the table structure for selected rows and using the index structure as part of process to get to those selected rows.
So it is not only space that is the coin of payment for indexes. There's also extra CPU to burn in order to maintain those indexes.
How can i calculate how much space it takes? Well, today I would say that space is much less of a consideration. Disk space is cheap. Overheads to maintain additional data structures are not cheap. So I would first look at the performance impact. If you need to maintain a 100 rows/sec insert rate for example, you can ill afford overheads that do not pay back with time gained when reading data.
I would also want to measure just how much the index reduces the workload for reading data. Does it decrease the read I/O load by 1% or 50% ?
You need to quantify the impact of that index to determine whether it is worthwhile. And it does not mean merely calculating the cost ito space used and then see how fast it makes a query by using a stop watch or timer (the wrong metric for measuring SQL performance).

Bit-mapped Index

Hi,
I run this
CREATE BITMAP INDEX bx_time_period ON time_period (time_period_cd)
and i got this error:
ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Bit-mapped
I am using a Oracle 9i SE.
How can i do to fix this error ?
Do i need to install any patch
Thanks.

About differences between normal an bitmap indexes you can see [url http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10743/schema.htm#sthref883]The documentation
In general, bitmap indexes are useful in application with huge data, low cardinality keys and low level of concurrent transactions (i.e. DataWarehouse), while normal indexes are tipically suitable for OLTP applications.

Bit-mapped image problem

Does anyone know how I manage to make an image bit-mapped in Illustrator 6? I think it is a key-command that I press accidentally, this happens to me occasionally as I am working quite fast and I must accidentally press a key and not notice how it happens, how can I reverse it so the image is no longer bit-mapped and save me time having to redraw the image?

I feel we are so close but missing one more hint to figure this out. Do you have any 3rd party plug ins?
Update to 16.04 alteast if you have not. I have not tested 16.05, should be ok, did not even know they opposed that. Adobe - Illustrator : For Macintosh
Edit Keyboard shortcuts > choose illustrator defaults
Review all you actions and get rid of any you do not use. I got rid of all of mine and modified the delta unused items which was the only useful one adn put that in my own set of custom actions.
That should eliminate the variable of some keyboard shortcut from Illustrator doing this
Check your clipboard settings.
Make sure you are saving to .ai format and not .pdf. I would also recommed doing a save as and turn OFF pdf compatible (unless you are going to import into InDesign.
Can you explain in a little more detail your copy & paste process. Such as do you save the doc after you copy, basically exactly when did you notice the original source document got bitmapped, could this already have been saved this way? Can you repeat this, does this problem happen.
Keep that link palette open, as that should be a good hint to exactly when this happens. You really do not want any graphics with embedded icons for most print graphic situations.

HT204406 how do I download higher bit rate songs from itunes match to replace the lower bit rate I have on my itunes library?

I have itunes match and I have about 500 songs that were ripped at 128kbps. I have been tolf that I can replace them via itunes match to improve them to 256 or 320?
I have put them into a playlist in my itunes library and I want to know how I can upgrade their bit rate via itunes match. Can anyone help me?

Sid,
With the device connected, click the Summary tab and you will see the "Convert higher bit rate..." option. Set it to 128. See picture below:

How do I copy text from one layer to another?

I have Googled this but not a single answer seems to work.
I am using Photoshop CS4 on OS X 10.6.7.
OK, so I have a layer that has some text in it. I would like to be able to simply copy that text from one layer to another, but this seems to be impossible as the Edit Paste menu item is grayed out after I have copied it in to the clipboard. I can paste it into the SAME layer, but not into another layer.
This is how I am trying to do this.
In the layer with the text, click on the "T" icon to the left.
Click on the text, in the layer that I want to copy.
I select the text (either by clicking and dragging or pressing Command-A).
Next I press Command-C.
Then I click on the layer In the Layer Panel) where I want to paste the text.
Pressing Command-V is impossible because the Edit-Paste menu option is grayed out!!!!
WHY??????
Perhaps more importantly, HOW do I copy text from one layer to another?

First thing you can simply right click on the Text Layer and choose Duplicate Layer. But that will create a new Text Lay
er identical to the one you have.
To answer your question in your case.... Create the Text Layer. Make a New Layer. Or have the layer you want to paste into visible.
Highlight the text layer in the Layer Palette and Ctrl+Click (Win) Cmd+Click(Mac) so that you see marching ants walking around your text.
Edit>Copy.
Then highlight your Layer you want to paste into and hit Edit>Paste or Cmd+V / Ctrl+V.

Since Forms 6 was never certified on Vista, I will assume you don't care about using Oracle Support. If that's the case, getting Forms 6 to work on Win 7 would likey require similar steps as you took to getting it to work on Vista.
At minimum, you would need to do the following:
1. Start with Forms/Reports 6.0.8.11 (6i Release 2)
2. Install the latest (last) patch (#17), bring the version to 6.0.8.26
3. It may be necessary to relax or disable Windows UAC
4. To run the executables, you have to right click on them and select Run As Administrator in order for them to work properly.
THE ABOVE IS NOT A SUPPORTED CONFIGURATION
Forms 6.x was desupported years ago. If you have not already begun to do so, you should probably be working on a migration plan in order to get you to a supported version. The latest version is 11.1.1.3, so you are far behind. All versions newer than 6.x are entirely web based. This means that you will no longer be able to use the Forms runtime on the client machines. Client machines will require an Oracle certified browser and JRE in order to run Forms. Certification information for Fusion Middleware 11 (includes Forms 11) can be found here:

Bit Map Join Index Creation

Hi,
I have a db of version 10.2.0.3 on a Unix box. This is used for DW.
I have a dbms job which is basically creates 6 bit map join indexes between two tables parallelly. One of the table (Fact table) has almost 170 million data and the other one (Dimension table) has 1.2 million data. Fact table is partioned and the indexes are local index.
For the last couple of days, this job is taking almost 70+ minutes whereas previously, it used to take around 44 to 48 minutes.
My pga_aggregate_size is 50GB and temp tablespace size is 33GB.
Per day 1 million data gets populated in the Fact table.
It used to run fine earlier. One fine morning we found this performance issue.
It will be really helpful, if we get some suggesstion about the tuning options.
Regards,
Soumyajit

since you probably don't have suitable data available from those runs (by "data" I mean e.g. SQL traces with row source operation statistics, wait event information and number of I/Os etc.) where it used to be faster it's going to be hard to tell where the difference comes from since there are many possibilities.
If really nothing else has changed apart from the data volume then one possible explanation could be that the join operation that is required to populate the bitmap join index switched from e.g. single pass to multi-pass due to the increased data volume.
Another explanation could be that one of the tables used to be cached in the buffer cache (small table threshold) but has now exceeded the default 2% limit for cached table scans and therefore requires more physical I/O than previously.
But there is a multitude of other possibilities starting from changes to the software/hardware (patches to Oracle, O/S, storage etc.), concurrent processes running at the same time, changes to the logging attributes of the tablespace/database, different execution plan due to statistics change, ASMM automatic cache buffer shrinkage etc. etc.
It definitely makes sense to trace the execution now to have that information available, furthermore you could try to check if the usage of the TEMP tablespace has increased in comparison to previous runs which could indicate above mentioned switch to a less efficient pass mode of the join.
Can you pinpoint already if only particular bitmap join indexes take longer than before or all six are slower than before?
Do I understand this correctly, that you run six jobs in parallel to create the indexes, or is it one job that runs the create index statements one after the other?
And do you use the PARALLEL DDL option to create each individual index? What about LOGGING/NOLOGGING?
By the way, what is reason that you rebuild the indexes every day? Is this after a load into a particular partition to rebuild the indexes of that partition after the data load? Or is it a rebuild of all partitions?

Randolf
