How should one deal with sub-projects?
Hello to all!
Let me first clarify my title-question.
On my current project I faced software malfunction [FCPX quitting] when I reached 17 minutes of building the video on the timeline. [As a reference, allow me to call this 17-minute part of the video in making as the main project.]
Remembering from an earlier thread [? Mr. Russ being the contributor], I opted to continue the project as a separate project which I seek to call as the sub-project Now even this sub-project is of a 14 minute duration and I have need to start a sub-project 2.
I would now like to be guided as to how to deal with these sub-projects while editing the video and after finishing the project.
Firstly, while editing. My present plan is to complete the project's video utilising as many sub-projects as needed, and then add the sub-projects to the main project. This done, I intend to add voiceover for the completed project. During this process, my questions are this...how do I add the sub-projects onto the main project? If I select and copy/paste the sub-project, it gets added as 'connected clips'...this is okay if one can export the project as such. But, when a voiceover has to be added, further retiming of the clips are called for and at this stage problems arise. Now, as I am writing this, it is striking me that I could make this added sub-project as a secondary storyline, get done with the retiming after the voiceover is added, and export the project. Have not done this before and would like guidance from senior contributors in this issue.
Secondly, when the project is exported and is being archived, do I need to have all the sub-projects or delete them to save drive-space?
Thanks in advance.
Have a great day.

Thanks Karsten for this further instructions. The present project I am working on is being done as a race against time. Faced a problem when dealing with a stack of generator clips one upon the other and each clip being given different commands regarding changes in position and rotation. Beyond the 17 minute mark, one click upon the parameter in the inspector window, and the application quit. When this quitting became a regular feature, I just remembered a thread in which one contributor wrote that he usually divides his projects into 10 minute bits before making up the whole project. Not willing to spend time further on this problem, being in a very 'creative frame mode' I simply continued working upon the project by starting up a 'sub-project'.
Regards and take care.

How does one deal with transparency in a placed file in InDesign?
I suppose this may seem elementary, but I'm relatively new to it so here goes:
First off, my print shop says that placed images should be in EPS format. I'm creating my files in Illustrator and some of them use a gradient mask to fade an object away. When saved as an EPS, the gradient mask shows as a white box instead of fading into the background. When I copy/paste my Illustrator image into a new Photoshop file, save it as a PSD, bring that PSD into Illustrator and save it as an EPS, the whole file is in a white box.
Example. I want those aisle markers to not be in white boxes.

How does one deal with transparency in a placed image in InDesign?
Thanks.If possible, one finds a new printer who can handle your files properly and doesn't insist on .eps.
What format are you delivering to the Printer? If it's anything other than PDF (and that's at their request) all the more reason to reread the first sentence. Why on earth are you moving things from Illustrator to Photoshop and back to Illustrator? Either one of those will save as .eps (ugh), though you need to use a clipping path for transparent areas coming out of photoshop (don't really know how Illy handles it when you say to save .eps with transparent background), but you are FAR better off with either native .AI or .PSD, both of which support transparencey, unlike .eps.If yo are delivering PDF, as you should be, it makes no difference to the printer what format the placed content uses (and it shouldn't matter to him even with native files unless he's hopelessly stuck in the 90s).
In any event, when importing from Illustrator, make sure to show the import options and check the transparent background box. -
How should I deal with it in the BMM Layer
Hi all,
I need a suggestion in a problem.
Here is the scenario,
In the physical layer, There are some fact to fact joins.
ProductFact ----< PolicyFact ----< PolicyCoverFact ----< ClaimFact ----< ClaimPaymentFact ----< CorrespondenceFact
There are some conformed dimension tables given below
Geography is joined to ProductFact, ClaimFact
Organisation is joined to PolicyCoverFact, CorrespondenceFact
Currency is joined to PolicyFact, ClaimPaymentFact
Also there are non-conformed dimensions such as,
ProductType is joined to ProductFact
PolicyCoverType is joined to PolicyCoverFact
and there are many more......What I know is when there are fact to fact joins, we should make a logical table in the BMM layer and add both fact tables to the same LTS, But in this case, almost all the fact tables are joined directly.
How should I deal with these fact to fact joins in the BMM layer? Any suggestions?

have I understood correctly? Is that what you mean?Yes, the reason why I said to "keep" the firsts fact table in each source is to make the dimension work.
For example, if the "product dimension" is only linked to "product fact", but not "policy fact" then you won't be able to do a report based on "product dimension" and "policy fact". Right ? To be able to do this report, OBIEE must do a join with "product fact" (this fact table become an intersection table). That's why you will add product fact in the "policy fact" source. Same for others source.
But the name of "ProductFact & PolicyFact" source can be "policy fact". Because each row of this source is a policy fact.
For the 3rd table, each row is a "policy cover fact". But to be able to join with "product dimension" and "policy dimension", you need to integrate "policy fact" and "product fact" tables in the logical source.

How should I deal with FTP permissions?
Ok, I'm not sure what would be the best way to deal with this. I have folders set up for several websites that each have a different user that administrates them. So I set each of the intended users home to the website root, and gave them ownership of the folder and it's files. I also have FTP set to chroot to the home directory.
I have run into a couple problems with this.
- First, if they were so inclined, the users could log in via SSH or an SCP program and get outside of their home directory. I would prefer that they were unable to. Can I set their shell to ftponly or something as such?
- Second, I have an on site admin that is often called on by the website clients to make small changes to their site. And I'm not sure how to set up his access so that he can have the ability to FTP in, have full rwx access to the users files, overwrite them, and go about his business without having to than do a chown on the new files so that they are all owned by the end user. Is there an easy way to do this, or should I write a perl script that either triggers on his logout or that he can run, to set the chmod/chown correctly after he's done.LavaRider wrote:

How should I deal with exceptions?
I have three possible choices that I see:
(1) Deal with them in an exception handler class. Use try/catch/throw in the class. Have throw call a method in the exception handler class.
(2) Use try/catch/throw and handle the exception in the same class where the exception occurs.
(3) Use throws and deal with the exceptions in the mediator class. The mediator class allows for communication between my FileHandler class, my DBHandler class, my UIClass, and any future classes.
Note that for each exception, I want to call a method in the UI class that displays a message to the user about the error so it can be debugged and a method in some class to write the error to an error log text file.Handling
can mean as little as logging the error.I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with youthere, %.
Disagree with me? This cannot be tolerated! 8)Watch it, lest yet get yer ass smote.
Except for where you're intentionally
smothering exceptions in finally blocks, or maybe
just recording an InterruptedException, justlogging
it is little better than smothering it. So what about unchecked exceptions? Are these .NET
demon spawn?I let unchecked exceptions bubble up. I'd expect an appserver to catch and log them, so that a bug in one app doesn't cause the whole server to barf. But other than that kind of situation, these are exceptions that you usually shouldn't try to handle.
>
I'm curious, since this thread is so much about
handling exceptions. What do people do besides
report them? If you get a SQL exception, what
recovery actions are you taking? Anything that I'm
missing?Usually it just bubbles up, or it's a wrapped in a more appropriate or layer-specific exception and rethrown. Sometimes there might be a retry, but usually the exception bubbles up to the higher layers and gets presented to the user as something like, "Could not connect. Retry?" What I hate to see is this:
try {
// get stuff from the DB
catch (SQLExeption exc) {
// log it
// Continue here (where "here" may be the calling method)
// with no idea that anything went wong.If you do that, you might as well not have an exception mechanism. Just go back to return codes and don't bother checking them. -
How do I deal with JPEGs of wildly various sizes for my HD Project?
My project comprises HD DVCPRO Interviews. Within those Interviews I'm trying to integrate JPEGs that were given to me on an external drive, but their Frame Sizes vary from 159x180 to 12648x9575 ! How do I deal with a 4584x5928 .peg for instance? Does anybody have any idea? I tried MPEG Streamclip_Export Frame_720x480 and it comes out crushed horizontally. What dimensions would you recommend? Thank you very much for any suggestion.
When you add the anything to the timeline, they "adopt" the sequence settings. The clips themselves won't change at all...but when added to the timeline, they "render" to the sequence settings. So the stills will remain with the dimensions they have, but when rendered, the portion you added to the timeline will adopt the timeline settings.
No need to buy Photoshop. PREVIEW is free, part of the apps that come with your computer, and can resize any picture file. No need to get GIMP.
Yes, resize all stills to under 4000 pixels BEFORE you import. FCP will have issues with anything over 4000 pixels.
>2) How do you calculate the other Dimension to go with 3800?
No idea what you mean. Just use Preview...in the TOOLS menu use ADJUST SIZE, and make sure that the SCALE PROPORTIONATLY is checked and when you adjust one number, the other will scale to maintain the same dimensions. -

Hyperlinks in cells, how do you deal with it?
I've got the hyperlinks palette open (Windows menu / Interactive / Hyperlinks)
Selecting a cell (or a table), that I would like to be clickable in a PDF, disables the hyperlinks address text field:
Obviously hyperlinks from cells are not supported.
How do you deal with it? Do you put empty textboxed on top of each cell that should be clickable?
Thanks,
Andreas@Andreas – to choose buttons over text based hyperlinks would mean you can define the area that is responsive like you want (the size is the size of the button) and you could design different button states in different ways (color, images, what not…).
For the scripter in you: Hyperlink objects have no geometric bounds, Button objects have…
Just an idea:
Imagine a script that is scanning all cells of a selected table and if there are hyperlinks detected uses position, width and height of that cell to generate a button just on top of the cell (it could be well on a different layer above) using the information the hyperlink provides. Every time the table is changed by the user and the script is fired again, the old buttons are removed and new buttons will be built…
If there are more hyperlinks than one in a specific cell, the buttons will be built around the area the hyperlinked text will occupy…

How can I deal with long sql by the oo4o?
I am using VB and oo4o to develop a sql executor which is a extention of an old system.
For some reason, I have to use oo4o v8.1.7 to deal with Oracle Database 8i to 11g.
But when I send a very long sql(11KB) to it I got a error in the VB enviroment.
The Err.Description is "automention error. Started object is disconnected by the client.".
The Err.Number is "-2147417848 ".
The sql that I send it to the program is a simple select sql that like select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 2, 3) .... from A_TBL where A=aa;
This sql is normally executed by the sqlplus but I got an error by the oo4o.
When I insert a '' between the 30Xth items, it got exectuted normally.
ex. select a, b, c, substrb(d, 1, 2), substrb(e, 1, 2) ..... substrb(303th, 3, 4), '', substrb(304th, 1, 2) ... from A_TBL where A = aa;
How can I deal with this problem? Thanks.So how can use this function correctly?By learning what exceptions are, how they're used, and what you can do to deal with them. There's a tutorial here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.htmlAnd here's a quick overview:
The base class for all exceptions is Throwable. Java provides Exception and Error that extend Throwable. RuntimeException (and many others) extend Exception.
RuntimeException and its descendants, and Error and its descendants, are called unchecked exceptions. Everything else is a checked exception.
If your method, or any method it calls, can throw a checked exception, then your method must either catch that exception, or declare that your method throws that exception. This way, when I call your method, I know at compile time what can possibly go wrong and I can decide whether to handle it or just bubble it up to my caller. Catching a given exception also catches all that exception's descendants. Declaring that you throw a given exception means that you might throw that exception or any of its descendants.
Unchecked exceptions (RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants) are not subject to those restrictions. Any method can throw any unchecked exception at any time without declaring it. This is because unchecked exceptions are either the sign of a coding error (RuntimeException), which is totally preventable and should be fixed rather than handled by the code that encounters it, or a problem in the VM, which in general can not be predicted or handled. -
How do we deal with Error 50 when downloading a movie rental then stopped with error 50 and when I try to resume the downld, it doesn't do it?
Yeah this "fix" is bunk. The movie is downloading just fine, but the extra features is the one giving me this error code. It is NOT my firewall. If it was, then both files wouldn't download. Plus, I already have the firewall "issue" tacked down and fixed. Have had it fixed for months now. No, this is due to the "new" itunes version 11 software. The only conclusion to fix this issue is UPgrading from 11 back to 10.7 which is what I am going to do. This is completely ridiculous! Come on, Apple, get itunes working once and for all, and fire the people responsible for itunes 11, just like you did to the guy who was responsible for apple maps. Thankfully Google came back to the rescue with google maps app.

How should i start with web dyn pro abap
Hi,
I have been working on webdynpro java now i would like to start working on webdynpro abap
could any one tel me how should i start with it.. pdfs, blogs would surely help??
i do have sufficient knowledge of abap too..
some brief idea about what is "web dynpro for abap" would surely help me
Thank u in advance...hi,
please do a search before posting for basic questions, i searched the same and got around 700 hit.
any ways check these links.
As the name suggests Web Dynpro for ABAP uses exactly the same meta model as its cousin Web Dynpro for Java. A Web Dynpro component, a Web Dynpro view, a Web Dynpro model, a Web Dynpro controller have the same semantics both for ABAP and Java. The main difference is the designtime environment, the development infrastructure and the runtime environment.
The designtime environment is properly embedded in the ABAP Workbench where Web Dynpro artifacts are simply a new category like BSP applications or classical dynpro based applications before. Also no surprises regarding the development infrastructure. The correction and transport system keeps track on all changes that are done, versions them and helps to propagate the Web Dynpro application from development to production like you would do with ordinary BSP or dynpro-based applications.
Last not least the execution platform is the ABAP server that produces application content ready to be integrated in the NetWeaver Portal seamlessly. Features like portal eventing can be used between applications written in ABAP or applications developed with Java.

How does Essbase deals with multi-users
How does Essbase deals with multi-users connecting for reading and writing in the same time? How the global coherence of the database is controlled when users are updating dimension and data all together?
For reading, Essbase handles multiple requests concurrently. For metadata (outline) only one user at a time can make and save changes.For data, Essbase uses a block level locking mechanism, which implies that an update to a block can only be done by a single update request, but other blocks in the database are still updateable by other users.Hope that helps.Regards,Jade---------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]
