How do you name a Regular Caption Subhead Display OTF Family

Given:
MyFont Regular
MyFont Caption Regular
MyFont Subhead Regular
MyFont Display Regular
which all have the same weight, width and style, what values do you supply for Postscript and TTF names to cause the operating system and apps to see these fonts as individual fonts and as members of one family.
I have in mind the Adobe Pro Optical OTFs which show up in a font menu under one family name, with the individual typefaces appearing in the families' sub menu.

Further adventures:
The Bauer Bodonie Std package sorts to the bottom of the Mac OS X Font Panel family listing, after Zapfino and Apple Chancery (which also sorts peculiarly).
The Trump Mediaeval Std package shows up as four separate families in the Mac OS X Font Panel:
Trump Mediaeval LT Std
Trump Mediaeval LT Std Bold
Trump Mediaeval LT Std BoldIt
Trump Mediaeval LT Std Italic
All four show up as Regular in the typeface column.
With the Didot LT Std package:
Select All Text in an app that uses the Mac OS X Font Panel
Choose Helvetica Regular for the font
Choose Didot LT Std for the font
Your text is now formatted with Didot LT Std Headline instead of Didot LT Std Roman, i.e., the font substitution algorithm doesn't make very good choices.
While the peculiar and anomalous functioning of the Mac OS X Font Panel is certainly not the responsibility of Adobe, it would be helpful to the consumer if Adobe's testing included an actual test of the fonts in the Font Panel, or, if Adobe can't guess (since there doesn't seem to be any documentation available) how the Font Panel operates, it seems prudent to warn a consumer that the Adobe OTF library is handled in a peculiar manner in Mac OS X Cocoa apps.

p.s. Still no word from Apple about where I can discuss or get help with font problems. It would seem to me that since DTP played such a large role in the success of Apple's Mackintosh that they would be more attentive.

How do you name an album in iphoto?

how do you name an album in iphoto?

It appears as if the Almighty -- oops, I mean Apple, simply added an extra click. Instead of being able to change the name in the sidebar list of albums, you now have to click on the album you want to re-name then go over to the top of the album viewer and click on the name again. The album name will then highlight at that location and can be changed. Thanks!

How do YOU name classes? (object oriented programming)

I am in the process of learning advanced object oriented design, and I am trying to use it in my personal programming project. I'm having a hard time implementing all of the classes I want for it because I can't think of what to call them.
So, my question is, in object oriented design, how do you name the implementations and abstractions that you make?
In other words, "implementations" can be thought of as "classes", and "abstractions" as "interfaces" in Java or "pure abstract classes" in C++. How do you name the classes and interfaces you make?
For example, do you use prefixes or suffixes on your names, such as "I" for "interface" or "Impl" for "implementation"? Do you add "-able" to the end of the name of an abstraction, such as "Decoratable"? Can you always think of simple logical names for all of your classes, and it just has never been a problem for you?
As an example of how the number of classes quickly grows, the Decorator Pattern will use at least five classes. I have no idea what I would name those in a programming project.

Trent wrote:Theoretically speaking, you'll have multiple implementations of the Window interface, which will have their own unique names suggested by their respective purposes. If not, then Window and its implementation should probably be merged into a single class.
Thank you for bringing that up.
How about this: The name of the implementation class will be HOW its implemented followed by the name of the interface.
A "Window" interface would have implementations such as "AllegroWindow", "GTKWindow", or "HaikuWindow".
In a video game, a "Character" interface would have implementations such as "GeneralCharacter", "ControllableCharacter", "PlayableCharacter", or "EnemyCharacter".
Does that sound like a good idea?
Indeed, classes are more specific than interfaces, subclasses are more specific as their superclasses... This should be reflected in their names, the name of a class that implements an interface should somehow make clear exactly what it is (e.g. what kind window). If you have a kind of window (for instance) that is really _just_ a window, nothing else, than the interface should become this class and the implementing classes should become subclasses.

How do you name your iPad 2?

How do you name your iPad 2?

Presuming you're referring to deciding on a name, assemble all family members who need to be consulted on this important decision. Then put forward various names (snowball, fluffy, hairy thunderer, cosmic muffin) until you find one that everyone is comfortable with. Then follow Dave's instructions (above).

HT4623 How do you name a photo onipad using ios8

How do you name a photo in iPad Mini using IOS8 ?

Another method is:
Open iphoto
Drag photo from iphoto to desktop. (you will still maintain the original in iphoto)
Open photo on your desktop in Preview
Click File, Save As.
In Save As , there is a Quality slider to adjust file size.
Save this file to desk top and then right click on the photo icon.
Click on "Get info" to check new file size. Repeat as needed
I find this an easier method than exporting from iphoto

How do you have more than 1 ipod in your family and only 1 computer to be able to each have a separate account?

HOw do you have more than 1 ipod int he family and be able to have your own itunes on 1 computer?

Did you read the support document at the other end of the link? What additional information do you desire?
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer (n.b. same link as above!) suggests a number of ways for managing the media content. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iDevices using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their device. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed and need rebuilding. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

You can build a form to a procedure in oracle portal that explores the queue with the option browse and prints de type message with htp package. I made it in this way and my applicattion works right. The procedure must loop the select count(msgid) from aq$[queuetable_name] times.

How do you change the fields that are displayed on the email preview list after a search?

How do you modify the fields that are displayed in the mail preview list in the center column of Mac mail after you conduct a search of your email? All of a sudden the displayed fields changed on me whenever I do a search in mail. When I have not filtered my email with a search, the default field shown in bold at the top of each message's preview is the "From" field. However, when I do a search this changes to the "To" field. Can anyone help? Thanks, ccarey

But why would you want this?
iTunes is responsible for the File Management, let it get on with it, you do your organisation in the iTunes window. And everything you need to do, you can do via the iTunes Window. Want to find the file of a track quickly? Right click on it in the iTunes Window and select Show File: A finder window pops open with the file already selected.

How do you name capture clips?

What am I doing wrong???
When I capture a clip it names it, "untitled" in the Capture Scratch folder. I save the project before capturing, and it puts it in the right folder, but every clip is called "untitled", "untitled2", etc. I even name the reel, but it doesn't use that name.
It's become such a pain, especially when transferring files. Is there a solution?

You can name the clips in the Capture window. It works with both Capture Now and Capture Clip.
As you type text into the Description, Scene, Shot/Take and Angle fields, FCE builds the actual file name for the clip and displays it in the Name field (which is greyed out, you can't enter text directly into the Name field). You also have to check the checkboxes to the right of each field to have each field included in the clip file name. If you don't enter anything in these fields and/or you don't check any of the checkboxes, FCE defaults to naming your clip "Untitled(n)" where (n) is a number.
Entering a value in the Reel field will not create a file name.

How do you get a TextField.htmlText to display a character?

I'm trying to have a dynamic text field display htmlText and
I've run into a bug/problem where the text field will NOT display
the < character (less than sign). In fact, unless I escape that
character like: \<, the text field stops displaying ANYTHING
after a < as well.
var tff:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tff.size = 12;
tff.color = 0x000000;
tff.align = "left";
mytextField.ptf.type = "dynamic";
mytextField.ptf.multiline = true;
mytextField.ptf.html = true;
mytextField.ptf.embedFonts = false;
mytextField.ptf.selectable = false;
mytextField.ptf.autoSize = "left";
mytextField.ptf.htmlText = myHTMLString;
mytextField.ptf.setTextFormat(tff);
mytextField is a clip on the stage that has a dynamic text
field in it. it's set to Arial and Use Device Fonts.
the results when
var myHTMLString:String = "this is a
sample piece of html text with a \<
character."
displays:
this is a
sample piece of html text with a \ character.
and when
var myHTMLString:String = "this is a
sample piece of html text with a <
character."
displays:
this is a
sample piece of html text with a
I presume that it's having problems displaying the <
character because it's confusing it with the start of an html tag.
How do you escape the < character so it can be displayed?
I tried url and html encoding it (< and %3C) but got
the same results

How do you get the bookmarks list permanently displayed on the left side of the screen?

I somehow managed to get the bookmarks permanently open and displayed in a vertical column on the left side of the screen. I accidentally closed it and cannot get it to display again. How do you manage to get the bookmark list permanently open and displayed again? Thank you.

Hello exoticdoc2, see if the next [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/all-in-one-sidebar/ All-in-One Sidebar add-on] it is useful for you, it is more than a sidebar bookmarks toolbar.
thank you

How do you name the icons at thr top of thre page as I could with the old firefox ,ie the reload arrow as its own icon with name title.

with the previos version of firefox I could name the icons on the address bar line at the top of the page...it was easier to do this than find for examplr the arrow for reload...all I did was go to customise and add the titles to the icons in lower case letters.........this I cannot do with this new version of firefox [ 29.0.1 ]....I have checked the custoise section but cannot find an item to title up the icons ...this is proving very inconvenient .

Move your mouse to the top of the Firefox window, then right click.
You will see a menu of the available toolbars. Select '''''Customize'''''.
In the new window, look for the icon. When you find if, hold down
the left button on it, and move it to where you want it to be.
You can move any of the icons you want from here, but some
icons are locked in place.

Using images as chapter titles - how do you name them?

Hi. I'm using InDesign 5.5.
I'm working on a project with multiple chapters, each chapter has a name eg Chapter One, which is viewable both on the page and is used in the table of contents.
For some chapters to give a bit of variety and more of a pro look I want to use images that I have created in Photoshop that has the name written graphically. So I have inserted the image at the start of the chapter page, I have applied the style that I used for the text chapter titles, and converted the file into an ePub. It looks great. The only problem is in the Table of Contents there is no text, it functions correctly if tapped, but the chapter is left without a name. Is there a method to give it a chapter name either in InDesign or in the HTML?

Hi Steve. Thanks for your suggestions.
I tried pasting the image on top of the text which looks fine in InDesign but when converted into an epub, depending on where exactly I place the end of page marker #, the text shows and the image displays on the following page or preceeding page but never on top of the text.
Your second idea will work. That is making the text paper-coloured so I could put invisible text first, then the image would be all that can be seen on the epub page, although it would be pushed one line down, although this could be reduced by using the smallest size font possible. -But I can't use that with my current project because for some chapter titles I want standard text and I don't think you can have two styles that are used to make Chapter Titles?

How do you name ipad attachments when opening in dropbox

ipad attachments openen in other applications kept the name of the attachment. iOS7 changes the attachment name to an alpha numeric string when opening in another application

If you've forgotten your iPad's passcode then you will need to restore the device by connecting it to the computer that you normally sync to - you can then copy your content back onto it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
