How does one copy an xygraph from a refnum?

Sorry, normally this is straight forward enough to push through on my own.
Purpose:
Pass Refnum of XY graph to subvi -->
Subvi's purpose : PRINT XYGRAPH to file/pdf/bmp, manipulate xy graph further (change back ground color to optomize for printing, optomize xy graph size for printing, move legend), perform some simple analysis on the data (rms, pkp etc)
Problem Statements: 
1 When using a refnum, writing any changes to the refnums property value will also change the parent i.e. the subvi xygraph.  This is not desired, so an exact copy of the xygraph must be made.  HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
2 When using a refnum for an xygraph, how does one retrieve the xy values?  If the property node for value is selected, a variant is produced.  (which after careful examination I was still not able to make heads or tales of this particular variant) 
p.s. A refnum is used because the xygraph already has formatting applied to its legend, plots, axis, etc.  A refnum passed to a subvi is the only way I know to pass all formating etc for the graph.
p.p.s. I understand that there is an invoke node that will export an image, it contains certain limitations (such as requiring the subvi be opened, since it works by similar rules to a printscrn) that make it un applicable to this problem.

I don't understand this statement. Does the subVI have a graph also? Obviously, if you make changes to properties via the refnum, then the graph it's pointing to will change.
p.p.s. I understand that there is an invoke node that will export an image, it contains certain limitations (such as requiring the subvi be opened, since it works by similar rules to a printscrn) that make it un applicable to this problem.
Again, I don't understand. Where's the graph? On the main VI, or the subVI? If it's on the main VI, why would this be an issue? Wouldn't the main VI window be open?

    You can't add any iOS to a Nano since it doesn't run iOS.

    How does one remove temporary files from Safari?  A friend logged on to her Facebook account using my iMac running Mac OSX 10.7.5 and Safari 6.1.6.  Now I can't remove her e-mail address from my computer.  When I open Facebook her address shows in the user button.  I do not have a Facebook account.  It was suggested to me that I try clearing temporary files from Safari but I can't find anything that tells me how to do this.  Are temporary files the same as the cache?  It also was suggested that I try clearing Safari cache.  How do I do that?

    Check Safari/Preferences/Passwords to see if the Facebook account is there. If so, select it and remove it. If you are still having problems, Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. If that doesn't work, Safari/Reset Safari.

  • How does one email a video from iPhoto

    how does one email a video from iPhoto

    One doesn't.
    Simply, sharing video via email is not advisable.
    Many email services have an attachment limit of 20mb and some a limit of 10mb. As emails are sent through an array of relays, the effective limit is the smallest file size allowed on any of the relays.  That means that video is rarely suitable for emailing.
    Then there's the whole issue of Codecs and not all machines will have the codecs to play all videos. Plus, folks with slower connections can find it very inconvenient to download large video files.
    Finally, sharing video from iPhoto via email is not supported. All that gets you is the Movie thumbnail. If you feel you must share via email then you'll need to export the video first, and attach that. Use the File -> Export command and set the kind  to Original.
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    Other than that your options include:
    Upload it to a sharing site like YouTube or Vimeo and email a link - these will allow the recipient to view the material online. That will avoid the codec issues mentioned, and the person can still download the video file if they wish.
    Upload it to sharing services like Dropbox or YouSendIt and email a link. This will require that they download the material to their machines to view.

  • How does one upload a file from flex to a cfc

    How does one upload a file from flex to a cfc?   Can you do the file upload via remote object? I usually do uploads cia cfm but prefer the asnc capabilities of remote object calls.

    Hi,
    The issue here is myFile. For flex we need to pass this name as paramenter becuase it's not html form item like:
    <cfcomponent>
        <cffunction name="uploadFile" access="remote" output="false" returntype="void">
        <cfargument name="file" required="Yes" type="any">
            <cffile action="upload" filefield="#arguments.file#" destination="C:\temp\" nameconflict="makeunique">
        </cffunction>
    </cfcomponent>
    From flex I'm getting the file using fileReference like:
    private function browseAndUpload():void
                    fileReference = new FileReference();
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.SELECT,fileReference_Select);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.CANCEL,fileReference_Cancel);
                    fileReference.browse();
                private function fileReference_Select(event:Event):void
                    fileReference.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,fileReference_Progress);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,fileReference_Complete);
                    fileReference.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,onLoadError);
                    //fileReference.upload(request);
                    fileName = fileReference.name;
                    myFile.htmlText = fileReference.name;
                    SM_RO.importNSA();
    filerReference have an upload method to upload the file but I can't use that becuase I need to process my upload with my cfc.
    I'm getting an error:
    Failed to import the file. The cffile action="upload" requires forms to use enctype="multipart/form-data". Please also make sure the file is not open.
    I can't find the way to setup the enctype becuase again i can have html form items in flex, or I can?
    Thanks

  • How does one update Subtemple value from Yes to No?

    Greetings! In the instructions of a published problem statement (Note ID: 808571.11) there is a line that says:
    "c) Check if the subtemplate is set to NO. Update it to NO if it is set to Yes."
    How does one update the Subtemplate value from Yes to No? In edit configuration, I do not see a Subtemplate value column.
    Many thanks in advance fr your suggestions.
    Tom

    With all due respect ... I do not see how one can change the Subtemplate value from Yes to No. When I query the offending Template, the Subtemplate column is not displayed in bold, indicating to me that it can not be updated. Clicking on Edit Configuration, doe not provide an ability to change the value either.
    As best I can determine, one needs to 1) query up the template
    2) download the rtf file(s)
    3) end date the template
    4) create a new template and then set the Subtemplate value to No.
    And the same steps appear to be required in order to add or update a template Description.
    Which raises the question, Why can this not be done by editing the configuration?

  • How does one copy tables, views, etc. from one database to another?

    I do not have a strong DBA background but have been placed in charge of updating and migrating a number of tables and views across multiple databases.
    For the future I need a better workflow than exporting and importing tables to/from .csv files and copy and pasting the SQL from each individual view.
    Can somebody point me in the right direction? I'm happy to do some reading but have no idea where to look.

    The Export utility provides a simple way for you to transfer data objects between Oracle databases, even if they reside on platforms with different hardware and software configurations.
    When you run Export against an Oracle database, objects (such as tables) are extracted, followed by their related objects (such as indexes, comments, and grants), if any. The extracted data is written to an Export file.
    To use Export, you must run the script catexp.sql or catalog.sql (which runs catexp.sql) after the database has been created,Ensure there is sufficient disk or tape storage to write the export file,Verify that you have the required access privileges.
    Interactive Export Prompts
    If you prefer to let Export prompt you for the value of each parameter, you can use the following syntax to start Export in interactive mode:
    exp username/passwordExport will display commonly used parameters with a request for you to enter a value. This method exists for backward compatibility.
    let me know if you have any further query!

  • How does one Create Bootable DVD from downloaded iso image in Windows?

    I have a completely empty system I want to load Solaris Express on. I have access to web on a Windows XP machine and have downloaded the Solaris iso image. Using WindowsXP facilities simply copies the iso image as an intact iso image file and resulting disc is not bootable. Windows knowledge base very conveniently says that what happened to me is what happens. No obvious referral to how to do it....
    A) So for a non-Windows savy person who does not want to become Windows savy (That is why I downloaded Solaris!) Where is a set of instructions on how to (inside Windows XP) "extract" an iso image to a CD / DVD disk so it will be bootable?
    B) It sure would be nice if Solaris were able to be loaded onto a USB Flash drive and booted at will from any USB computer. Just plug it in and boot. Has this been done?
    C) Getting a physical disk by snail mail from Sun is very slow for me.... (3 weeks and still watching the mail box...)

Where is a set > of instructions on how to (inside Windows XP) "extract" an iso image to a CD / DVD disk so it will be bootable?http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/download_instruction.xml
    You probably copied the .iso file as one single very large file onto media. Instead, you can use a utility such as Roxio DVD Creator or Nero (or freeware like cdrecord) , and select the option to burn an image that already exists. No special boot options are needed, because the ISO image already contains the boot information needed.
    B) It sure would be nice if Solaris were able to be loaded onto a USB Flash drive and booted at will from any USB computer. Just plug > it in and boot. Has this been done?With the Newboot project introduced into Solaris Express, I believe it is now possible. I'm not a USB expert, though, so cannot say for sure.
    C) Getting a physical disk by snail mail from Sun is very slow for me.... (3 weeks and still watching the mail box...)I can't comment on that.

  • How does one  transfer the songs from a classic ipod to an account and back?

    I'm giving my sister my ipod classic because I got an ipod touch. We are trying to figure out how to put the music on ipod to her account. Any ideas?

    You want to transfer the music from your iPod to her iTunes library or her account?  If it's the latter (her Apple ID), then it's not possible as purchases made under one Apple ID are permanently attached to that ID.  
    If it's the former, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    - You can email the ones you want to retain and the restore the the iPod on the the new computer
    - You can use a third-party like PhoneView or TouchCopy (both paid) and maybe the free
