How to fit placed items multiple up?

Hello,
I am new to InDesign CC, and apologize if what I am looking for is a simple command and I am just not calling it the right thing.
I am wanting to know if there is a way to automatically fill a blank document with placed items making it multiple up?
A simple example would be a business card that I designed in InDesign. I have the margins, document size and bleed edges set, I would like to place them multiple up on various sizes to see what size would hold the most to trim. 8up typically go on a letter sized document etc. But now many could I fit on 12"x18", etc.
What I am trying to accomplish not having to align each one manually which is slowing my work flow down. Plus when customers have odd sized documents they want cut and padded etc, having the abilitiy for the software to automatically place items that are all alligned by their trim edges would save a lot of proofing and re laying items out.
The idea comes from my Silouette Cameo personal cutting plotter. The software lets you fill the cut area with a design and it is filled equally.
There has to be a way commercial users can do this with out figuring all the math?
Thanks for reading and have a great day.

How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???

How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???
Where are the instructions on how the information in the Multiple Item Information dialog box equates to ...
1. The way iTunes sorts tracks and albums
2. The reason to select a leading check box
3. Why there are Option selections (Yes /No) and leading check boxes.
4. Why some changes remain in the track info, but do not "take effect" in iTunes (Part of a compilation is an example)
Looked in Help, Support, went to the local Genius bar for an hour, even arrainged a call from apple support ...
Thanks

As Christopher says, it's a compilation. Different tracks are by different artists.
Setting the *Album Artist* field to *Various Artists* and setting *Part of a compilation* to Yes should be all that is required. Depending on your *Group compilations when browsing* setting ( I recommend On ) either should suffice but I suggest doing both.
Based on your commentary, I selected all the "O Brother" tracks, and checked the boxes for everything line that was blank in the Info and the Sort panes. Only exceptions were the album name and the disc number 1 of 1 and the artwork. I blanked and checked anything else.
That's not what I meant. When you select multiple tracks, only those values which +are already common+ to all tracks are displayed. Typically these will include Artist, though not with compilation albums, Album Artist, Album, No. of Tracks, Genre plus various sort fields. A blank value may indicate that different tracks have different values or it may be that the value is blank for all tracks. For the drop down values on the Options tab the value shown may not reflect the information in every tag. If values you expect to be common, such as Album Artist or the Album title are not displayed you can simply type these in and click OK. This will often be enough to group the album.
If you place a checkmark against the blank boxes and apply changes then you will clear those fields so you should only do this if that is the effect you want. Putting a checkmark next to an empty (representing different values) *Track No.* box, for example, will just clear the all the track numbers which is very rarely useful.
Adding then removing extra text is for a specific problem where despite all common values being identical across the tracks of the album iTunes seems to "remember" that it should see two albums. A typical example would be when an album originally listed as *Album CD1* & *Album CD2* is given disc numbers X of Y and then has the Album name changed to Album. I've seen iTunes merge all but one track into the new album, but insist on listing one remaining track separately, despite both albums having the same title. In this case I've found overtyping the album title again has no effect whereas changing it to AlbumX and then back to Album does what I was trying to achieve in the first place.
Don't forget that even properly organsied albums may still break up if you don't chose an album-friendly view. Sorting on the track name or track number columns can be useful in some circumstances but in general I revert to Album by Artist when browsing through my library.

How to insert more items for each tab in WAD 7.0

Hello to everyone,
My problem is confined to the WAD 7.0
I would like to insert 4 different queries into a new Web Template.
Two of them have to stay in one page and the others in one page each; therefore, the result would be a Web Template with three tabs.
Unfortunately the system creates automatically four different tabs with one query each.
Anybody knows how to insert more items in one page/tab?
Thank you very much
Savino Pompa

Hi Savino
In the WAD bring up the properites of the tabstrip_container web item, under the Internal Display group in the Tab Panel List, create 3 tabs, then drag 3 contatiner_layout web items into the tab web item.
In each conatiner item drag the analysis web item, 2 in the first container, then 1 each for the others, then point each analysis web item at a dataprovider(query).
Setup the contatiners so that the analysis items displays, to do this in the container properties create a row then on the following screen a column and then set the Subordinate web item to the analysis item, these web items control layout and are useful for dealing with multiple web items, for the first tab with 2 queries you will need to play with the layout, either 1 row 2 column or 2 row 1 column.
For each tab you created add the corresponding contatiner as the Subordinate Web Item in the Tab Panel parameters for each tab.
Hope this helps

How to show catalog items with Approval Status:Pending in a Content Search Webpart

How to show catalog items with Approval Status:Pending in a Content Search Webpart using cross site publishing. Thanks in advance.

I don't think you're going to be able to. Usually Approval Status is used in conjunction with Major/Minor versioning and while Approval Status is pending the item is usually a draft.
As a result the search crawler should not be able to see the draft items as it would not have the necessary rights to do so. (Good practice ensures that the Search Crawler has only read access and is not an elevated account for this reason)

How to fit videos/imges in tilelist without scrollbars

Hi
How to fit and resize even or uneven no.of videos or images in tilelist without scrollbars.Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Srinivas

Hi Srinivas38,
You cannot set the VariableRow height for each and every item in the tilelist control. You will have the same height and same width for all the items.
You do have the variableRowHeight property for TileList as like in a List control ..but it doesn't work...The tilelist control just ignores the property.
So if you want to fit your images/videos in a TileList without scroll bars then you need to set the maximum height and width for each item which will remian the same for all the items in TileList.
Set the verticalScrollPolicy and horizontalScrollPolicy to off for the item(which may be an itemRenderer file you may be using).
Thanks,

What is the "Other" category under storage and how can i delete items from this?

My disc is almost full. "About this Mac" says that I have 47 GB of "Other." What is this Other and how can I delete items from this?

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

How do I get Item Level text from PO ME21N Prior To Saving The PO?

I saw this asked a few times but no solution so I will ask again.
Imagine that you are creating a PO in ME21N. You have some Header Level Text and then imagine you have 2 items in this PO. Each of these two items has Item Level Text.
Once a PO is saved, I know how to use Read_Text to get the texts for the header and items. You simply pass which text you want (ex. F01) the PO number and the language and it returns the texts for the header. For item level you combine PO number and Item number you want in the Name parameter of Read Text (example 112233445500010) then tell it which text you want (ex F01) and that is how it knows which item you want the text for.
However: When the user is first creating the PO, they want to see how it will look in printing but prior to actually saving the PO. They dont want to save the PO until they know how it will print with Print Preview.
I was very surprised that the print preview actually worked for the Header Texts prior to saving. I debugged Read_Text and see that when it sees no PO number passed, it simply supplies the text (F01) and the language and pulls it out of an FM READ_CATALOG which I am assuming is memory. In theory, you will only have one F01 text at the header level and it makes sense to me that it is able to retrieve that.
BUT: My Item Level Texts are not returning anything. It makes sense to me as well because you cannot simply tell it give me the F01 texts you see because if you have multiple items, you will have multiple F01 texts, one for each item number if you put text to each item.
How can I get the item level texts out before saving the PO? Since the PO is not saved yet, there is no PO number and nothing is stored in STXH and STXL. Where are the texts stored and how can I retrieve them? I tried passing just the item number but as expected it still returned nothing.
Any ideas?

Ok I figured it out. I will add this for anyone else that may have this issue.
The short version is that just like header level texts, item level texts that have not yet been officially saved to the PO are stored in a catalog. If you were to debug READ_TEXT you will see that it will look in the catalog to see if there is an entry there for the corresponding texts (ex F01, F02 etc).
For header texts, you simply pass the language and which text you want without the PO number and it will return header texts.
Item level however you have to specify which line item you want plus which text and then the language.
During debugging if you debug Read_text and go to the FM READ_CATALOG you will see the following:
READ TABLE CATALOG WITH KEY CATALOG_KEY.
Load the table Catalog into the debugger and see how it stores them.
In one solution I read on this forum it said to use 10 zeros and then your item number.
Mine was stored with 10 spaces, not zeros. Loaded 10 spaces plus the item number and it returned my text with READ_TEXT.
Hope this helps someone else one day!!

How do I delete items from menu bar that are not part of the OS

How do I delete items from menu bar that are not part of the OS

Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details. I can give you some general ideas though.
On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer. If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
Hope that helps.

How will i display the multiple select ids in the dashboard ?

I have a form where there is a multiple select. When the form is submit, the ids for the multiple select is stored in the database as concatenate. For example, multiple select : 3,9,5,1.
The ids of the multiple select is found in a table TABLE1 and the insertion is done in another table TABLE2.
Now I have to display them in a dashboard.
My question is how will i display the multiple select ids in the dashboard ?
I have to do an innerjoin with TABLE1 to retrieve the names of the multiple select ids. I don't know how to do it because the column name for multiple select in TABLE2 is of type text and the column id in TABLE1 is of type int.
Please help me solve this problem.
Thanks in advance

One general advice is, never store comma-delimited lists in the database. In fact, the reason is to avoid problems like the one you now face.
The major suggestion here is to re-design your database. Make sure each selected item (for example 3, 9, 5 or 1) is stored in its own row.
To solve the problem as it now stands, you could do something like
<cfquery>
select myItems
from table2
where id in (select id from table 1 where ...etc.)
</cfquery>
Then use ColdFusion's list functions to do what your dashboard requires you to do.

"CLOSED":How to plan inventory from multiple orgs simultaneously using MRP?

Hello everybody,
How to plan inventory from multiple organizations simultaneously using SCP?
My customer found that in supply chain planning (MRP) system always plans in single manufacturing organization, say, ATC, firstly. If set in organization item master, the source type as 'Inventory' and the source organization as another trading organization name, say, ANX. if there is insufficient inventory in ATC, SCP-MRP would plan in ANX, disregard of the inventory exist in ANX for the item.
But for some items, there are both inventory in ATC and ANX and we want plan BOTH their inventory simultaneously instad of firstly ATC and then ANX.
Is there any standard function in Oracle that can do so? I found that the sourcing rule cannot help in this case.
A simple test case is described in
https://gtcr.oracle.com/gtcr-dir/gtcr_4607/5580425.992/Alternative_to_plan_multi-org_MRP.doc
Thanks

Catalina,
Net the inventory simultaneously? Its not quite clear what your client wants.
Even in the old SCP, you can use sourcing rules to first net inventory in org1 and then net the inventory in org 2 via a transfer from rule. The key point is it is always incremental based on where you place teh demand and then you provide source to fill that demand.
One restriction that ASCP still has up to 11.5.10 is that you can only have sourcing rules going in one direction. This means that you can't have a rule that sources ORG1 from ORG2 for item A, then have the revers in ORG2 sourcing from ORG1. That won't work, ASCP will randomly ignore one of the rules.
The best choice may be to use GOP with a sourcing split % so that yo do consider the inventory in both orgs when demanding the order, but it would still be done by checking ORG1 then ORG2.
Hope this helps.

How to open a form multiple times

pl tell me how to open a form multiple times

HI Sagar,
Before adding the form to SBO
try to get the existing count of the form
as shown below
For int = 0 To objApplication.Forms.Count - 1
If objApplication.Forms.Item(int).TypeEx = FormType Then FormTypeCount += 1
Next
THEN append that with your form type as shown below
objFormCreationParams.FormType=FormType & "_" & FormTypeCount.ToString
Then add the form to SBO
SO every time your form is opened the unique id will like URFORMTYPE_1,URFORMTYPE_2 and so on
Hope this helps
