How to create right-angled arrows or lines to connect forms?

Hello,
I am new in this forum and I would like to know whether there is an easy way to create right-angled arrows to conncet forms. Currently I create several lines and put them together manually. This is very time-consuming.
Is there an easier way to do this in pages1 or keynote2?
(I want to create an organization chart!)
Thanks for your help.

A copy and paste procedure might help here, but Apple's Clipboard only holds one item at a time, which is limiting. Copy something else and your previous item is gone. One way to overcome that limitation is with a utility called CopyPaste available from scriptsoftware.com. CopyPaste offers a hundred or more clipboards. I use it to store either text or objects that I use over and over. The palette collapses and a small icon floats above all else. Just stick it in a convenient place and it will open when you mouse over it. You could create your arrow once, copy it to Copy Paste, and paste it in where ever you need it. It won't be erased from the clipboard when you copy something else and it will be remembered when you shut down or restart. You can create, name, and organize multiple clipboards to file items you constantly reuse.
To be able to move your arrows arround, be sure to click outside the layout area before pasting.
Hope this helps.

    I didn't question you about points at all - I was making the point that you have been on SDN a long time and have a lot of points.  Therefore you should know better than to simply cut and paste standard SAP help.  If you don't copy and paste for sake of points, what do you do it for?  It serves no purpose other than to fill up the servers here on SDN.  The original poster appears to have access to a SAP system and SE37 and wants to know how to call a BAPI - they can easily go to SE37 and read the documentation themselves.  Posting it here just adds noise and makes searching harder, as well as taking up more and more space on SDN servers.

  • How to create a unique file name each time the form is saved?

    I've got a form with several data items. When the user saves the form, it saves it as an .xml file. So far so good. But then I want the user to be able to start over and put in a new data set. I used the reset form button and this clears out the old data. But when the user goes to save the form for the second set of data, the default name of the .xml file is the same as the last record set. How do I get LCD to create a unique data name each time the form is saved? I know that the user can enter a new name, but I do not want them to have to think that much.
    Alternatively, is there a way that a user can enter several forms of data and save all of the data in one XML file that my PDF can scroll through or that I can import into excel and keep all of the data sets separate?

    Thanks Paul for the post. It sounds like this program is simply not designed for one user to keypunch a batch of forms. It would appear to limit the program's use to users who only need to key in one record/form. While a good solution for multiple users who need to enter just one set of data, the limitation would explain why this program is not widely used.

  • I need instructions on how to create a button that will email a pdf form to someone else on a websit

    I NEED ASSISTANCE CREATING A BUTTON THAT WILL EMAIL A PDF FORM FROM A WEBSITE TO WHOEVER THE VIEWER WANTS TO

    Just a bit more info. E-mail can be used, but has potential problems -- often related to the client machine that you have no control over. Use the data submissions (either FDF or XML) rather than the full PDF so you do not have to deal with Reader Rights and the related license issues. The FDF and XML data files are easily imported into the original form so that you see what the client sees. With those aspects in mind, just go ahead and try one. Be aware that you can add form fields using the form tools in the Advanced Editing tools, OR use the forms menu that will take you to Designer. You might want to try both to see the pros and cons. Be sure to keep such a test simple so you are not wasting time on your final form just for testing. I typically create a 1 page form that has all of the possible fields for such a test.

  • How can I tell if my phone line is connected to a ...

    Hi, I have been trying to find out if my phone line is connected to the street cabinet or directly to the exchange as the checker says I am unable to get bt infinity. The house 2 doors away seems to be able to get it and having looked at the spreadsheet (google fusion table) it says that 42% of line on my postcode are enabled. Is there a way of finding if I am in that 42%. My postcode: tn104pb Hope someone can help Thanks

    I vaguely remember being informed that something like 4% of telephone lines in the UK are EO - I'm afraid I don't have any references with which to back that up though
    Having worked in that part of the network for many years, I don`t think I remember any personal customers on EO cables.
    Office blocks, or old established businesses in city centres, were the only ones. That would account for the 4%.
    The lack of flexibility was the main issue with EO cables, with the volume of "churn" of domestic customers, it would not have been practical.

  • Acrobat pro: how set default properties for arrow and line tool seperately?

    I have a problem with the 'comment and markup' tools in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    I would like to change the defaults of some of the tools, eg the arrow and the line tool.
    This can be achieved by right-clicking on something drawn using the tool in question and then selecting 'properties' - or by selecting the tool and then press ctrl+E, wich opens a 'Callout Tool Properties', and then change what you want there. The latter option keeps the changes as defaults - the former offers a box to tick in the 'properties' dialogue that opens - or, you can right-click on the object again after having changed the properties, and then select 'Make Current Properties Default'.
    My Problem is now, that, apparently, you cannot choose and save default properties freely and for each tool. I woul like to have the default properties for the line tool set as the following:
    -line color: yellow
    -line thickness: 8pt
    -opacity: 60%
    and fot the arrow tool as this:
    -line color: red
    -line thickness: 1pt
    -opacity: 100%
    This all works fine as long as the program is open. As soon as I exit and start it again opening another document /the same one again, the arrow tool changes to
    -line color: yellow
    -opacity: 60%
    only the line thickness remains at 1pt.
    If I change the properties of the line to the ones I want for the arrow, the arrow properties remain unaltered if I close Acrobat Pro.
    Why do these properties interfere? Why is it "line color/thickness" in both? Why, then, do only the opacity and the color interfere, but not the thickness - even if it's the latter two properties that are bot called "line xxx"? Why does Acrobat not save all properties for these two shapes seperately - even IF the two shapes are both of a line-like kind?
    Is there a way to get around this?

    Trobbel - This indeed is puzzling behavior. Clicking 'Make Current Properties Default' should preserve the default  appearance for each. I don't have a solution, but merely a couple of suggestions:
    1) Make sure you have installed any available upgrade for your version of Acrobat Professional.
    2) Consider using the line tool exclusively - you can add an arrowhead and make one tool perform both tasks.
    Hope this helps. /rmbrown

  • How to create a subtotal or text line in a service sales order ?

    Hi ,
    is there a way to add text line in sales order for service ? when we switch from item sales order to service sales order , the "type" column disappear , and we can not create line other than service line . we use B12007A SP01 PL07
    i've not seen this limitation in the B1 help . is it a setup problem ? or is it impossible to add those lines to service sales order ?
    thanks for help
    regards

    Hi,
    This is not setup problem this is limitation you cannot add line as text or subtotal using type option in service order like item type order. If you want to add text for your service line you can do this through linewise  udf.
    Thanks

  • How to create text box with multiple lines in selection screen.

    Hi,
    i need to create a text box to capture comment with 300 characters. i want to achive this without using module pool,is there any posibilities to that
    regards
    raja

    Since text on Report screens is limited basically to what's left on a line in the selection screen, you'll have to use Module Pool.
    however, you can call a screen from a report program and use the editor within a Custom Control on the screen.  Not a tough thing to do.

  • How to create a text field (multi-line) that starts on one pages but finishes on another?

    Hi,
    I would like to create a multiline text field that the field starts on one pages but finishes on another?
    Here is an example of what I want. The text starts in the top of the box (1st box) and would continue in the bottom box (2nd box).
    I have Adobe Acrobat X (version 10.1.1) on Windows 7. I know I could use Live Cycle to create an expandable but I need to import this form to Adobe Form Central after therefore Live Cycle isn't an option.
    Thanks in advance for everyone's help!

    Hi,
    I found a possible solution to my question which is working OK with form central (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/303650)
    Here are the limitation of that option (that I found out so far):
    it cuts in the middle of the word you are writting when switching to the next box
    you can't copy and paste a long text
    if you remove text from the first box i won't move text from the second box back up
    you can't go back with your cursor from the second box to the first (e.g. to edit you text)
    Any other ideas of how I can get that done?
    Thank you!

  • How to create a program shortcut (command line, not icon)

    Hi,
    I installed a program from source, it's a biological structure modeling software. How can I make a shortcut so that I just type in the name of the program to get it to start? Thanks!

    There are two ways of doing it, depending on what you want to accomplish. Both require that you edit the file ~/.bashrc (I assume you use bash)
    1) If the application places all the executable files in a given directory (let's say /opt/Application/bin/), you can access all those executables directly by simply telling your shell where to look (in the same way the shell automatically looks for executable files in eg. /usr/bin). In ~/.bashrc, you would have to add a line that looks like this:
    PATH="$PATH:/opt/Application/bin"
    2) If you just want to make a traditional "shortcut" that executes a given command, this can be done with alias. Add this command to your ~/.bashrc:
    alias shortcut="some command"
    In this case, typing shortcut into a terminal will be interpreted just like if you had typed some command instead.
    In order to try out these changes, either restart your terminal or run this command:
    source ~/.bashrc

    I was obviously beaten to it
