How to get relative position of layer in larger precomp.

The Setup:
Comp 1 is 2000x3000 pixels. Comp 1 contains Layer X that is positioned at 1750,1250. (or whatever)
I pull Comp 1 into Comp 2 which is 800x600. I scale and move Comp 1 inside Comp 2 by an arbitrary amount.
How can I determine Layer X's position using Comp 2's coordinate space?

Hmmmm... That's not working either.
Inserting this expression into an Effect's point control doesn't put it in the right position. I tried inserting this expression into another (2D) null's position, but it's in the same incorrect place.
Original Null A Position (from C4D project import). This comp is put into Comp ZZ.
Applying that Expression to Null's position in Comp ZZ puts the new Null B way off in the corner.

How to get info from a layer which is applied with styles ?

How to get info from a layer ? such as   ( apply style or not , which effect have applied on it etc..)
I really can't solve it , Who can hlep me.. By the way , I 'am using CS version.

xtools/xlib/Styles.js has a set of functions for working with layer styles. I do not know if it works with CS. I wrote it several years ago for either CS or CS2. If this doesn't work, then nothing will. The script retrieves a layer's style by saving it to disk then parsing the file for the desired ActionDescriptor.
There is a function at the bottom of the file that tests the Styles.js API.
Styles.test = function() { var doc = app.activeDocument;
var layer0 = doc.artLayers[0];
var gdesc = Styles.getLayerStyleDescriptor(doc, layer0);
if (!gdesc) {
    alert("There is no layer style associated with the layer");
    return;
//   this will set the layer style to another layer.
//   var layer1 = doc.artLayers[1];
//   Styles.setLayerStyleDescriptor(doc, layer1, gdesc);
if (!gdesc.hasKey(cTID('FrFX'))) { // look for a stroke effect
    return;
var frfx = gdesc.getObjectValue(cTID('FrFX'));
if (!frfx.hasKey(cTID('Clr '))) {   // look for the color
    return;
var clr = frfx.getObjectValue(cTID('Clr '));
// we should really check that the objectType is RGBC
var r = clr.getDouble(cTID('Rd '));
var g = clr.getDouble(cTID('Grn '));
var b = clr.getDouble(cTID('Bl '));
if (r == 0 && g == 0xFF && b == 0xFF) {
    return;
clr.putDouble(cTID('Rd '), 0);
clr.putDouble(cTID('Grn '), 0xFF);
clr.putDouble(cTID('Bl '), 0xFF);
frfx.putObject(cTID('Clr '), cTID('RGBC'), clr);
gdesc.putObject(cTID('FrFX'), cTID('FrFX'), frfx);
Styles.setLayerStyleDescriptor(doc, layer0, gdesc);

How to get the position of the stem in control valve using slider control in the front panel

I have created a calibration program for a control valve. Signal (4-20mA) is generated from labview using slider contorl which is given to the valve via DAQ(module 9265) and again the feedback signal from the valve is acquired using DAQ(module 9203).. . There is an input ISO/ISC(Increasing signal to open/ Increasing signal to close) in the front panel.
ISO would set the output to increase from (4-20)mA further opening the valve
ISC would set the output to increase from (4-20)mA further closing the valve
I have doubt, how can i get the position of a stem

Ravens Fan wrote:
If the position of the stem is being sent to the PC through a 4-20 mA signal into your DAQ 9203 module, then you just need to do an analog input read in order to get the signal.
When reading this post, that is what came to mind... So let's see if both RavensFan & I are trying to understand the same thing... Are you saying that the position of the stem is linear (or scaled) to the amount of current sent to it? Meaning a 4mA signal would move it a certain distance, and 10mA would move another given / known distance? Or are you saying that it is calibrated so that a 20mA signal for a certain duration (ms) would move it a given distance? So the scale would be time and not current unless a lookup table is used to adjust the time duration based on the current being drawn...
It's just that I am not familiar with solenoid / drive devices that related to current.. To voltage, yes. To time, yes.. To current, I'm simply saying that I am not familiar with that. Can you tell us more about this stem (mfg / model designation)?

How to get related entities in lightswitch RIA domain service?

I have set up my DomainService and here is the data structure(one CombinedStadium may
have many CombindeEcoStatus)
public class CombinedStadium
[Key]
public int SiteId { get; set; }
[Include]
[Association("Stadium_EcoStatus", "SiteId", "StadiumId")]
public IQueryable<CombindeEcoStatus> EcoStatus { get; set; }
public class CombindeEcoStatus
private CombinedStadium _combinedStadium;
[Key]
public int EcoId { get; set; }
public int Year {get;set;}
public int StadiumId { get; set; }
[Include]
[Association("Stadium_EcoStatus", "StadiumId", "SiteId", IsForeignKey = true)]
public virtual CombinedStadium Stadium
get { return this._combinedStadium; }
set
this._combinedStadium = value;
if (value == null)
this.StadiumId = value.SiteId;
the query is
[Query(IsDefault = true)]
public IQueryable<CombinedStadium> GetAllStadiums()
var stadiumsQuery = from stadium in this.Context.StadiumSet
select new
SiteId = stadium.Id
return stadiumsQuery;
When I consume this RIA service in my lightswitch app as datasource,and the result looks as same as the Original lightswitch Data Source.
Question:When I query the "CombinedStadium" in HTML client. I can't use the "expand" keyword to get the "EcoStatus" Items which belong to the selected
"CombinedStadium" items.the query code is below:
//streetIds, openIds are query parameters
//streetIds is parameter for query the "CombinedStadiumItem" table
//openIds is parameter for query the "CombindeEcoStatusItem" table
myapp.activeDataWorkspace
.WCF_RIA_ServiceData
.CombindedStadiumQuery(streetIds, openIds)
.expand('EcoStatus')
.execute()
.then(function(proItems) {
var test = proItems.results;
addPin2Map(test);
loadStadiumInfoGrid(test);
the browser throw "error 501".
So I query the "CombinedStadiumItem" table alone.the code is below:
//streetIds, openIds are query parameters
//streetIds is parameter for query the "CombinedStadiumItem" table
//openIds is parameter for query the "CombindeEcoStatusItem" table
myapp.activeDataWorkspace
.WCF_RIA_ServiceData
.CombindedStadiumQuery(streetIds,openIds)
.execute()
.then(function(proItems) {
var test = proItems.results;
addPin2Map(test);
loadStadiumInfoGrid(test);
myapp.activeDataWorkspace
.WCF_RIA_ServiceData
.RiaEcostatusQuery(streetIds,openIds)
.execute()
.then(function(proItems) {
var test = proItems;
and the query code in server :
partial void CombindedStadiumQuery_PreprocessQuery(string streetPara, string openPara, ref IQueryable < CombinedStadiumItem > query) {
var street = ParseParaStr(streetPara);
if (street != null) {
query = query.Where(e => street.Contains(e.Street));
var open = ParseParaStr(openPara);
if (open != null) {
//when I try to access "EcoStatus" property in "CombindedStadiumItem" table,it throws error
query = query.Where(e => e.EcoStatus.Any(eco => open.Contains(eco.OpenStatus)));
//when I try to access "Stadium" property in "CombindedEcoStatusItem" table,it throws error
partial void RiaEcostatusQuery_PreprocessQuery(string streetPara, string openPara, ref IQueryable < CombindeEcoStatusItem > query) {
var street = ParseParaStr(streetPara);
if (street != null) {
//when I try to access "Stadium" property in "CombindedEcoStatusItem" table,it throws error
query = query.Where(e => street.Contains(e.Stadium.Street));
var open = ParseParaStr(openPara);
if (open != null) {
query = query.Where(e => e.EcoStatus.Any(eco => open.Contains(eco.OpenStatus)));
Now, I can not get "CombindedEcoStatusItem" that related selected "CombindedStadiumItem" respectively.
How can I get related entities when I use lightswitch RIA service in HTML Client query?
Thanks!!!

Hello Friends
After research , I could also find another way to check the existence of a node .We can even use CHOOSE to check the existence.
<xsl:choose>
 <xsl:when test="(/mynode)">
 your action if the mynode is found
 </xsl:when>
 <xsl:otherwise>
 action if mynode is not found

Use the Function Module : RH_GET_LEADER to get the Manager's Position.
Go through the FM : RH_GET_LEADER documentation for more information.
OR
DATA: it_result LIKE swhactor OCCURS 0.
DATA: wa_result LIKE swhactor.
DATA: l_employee_position TYPE objid VALUE '20000022'.
DATA: l_manager_position TYPE objid.
CALL FUNCTION 'RH_STRUC_GET'

How to get only the selected layer data?

Hi All,
I'm using dissolve sample plugin. I added two layers in photoshop both of different dimensions, say 1000 * 1000 & 2000 * 2000. Now I select the layer with 1000 * 1000 dimension and click on Dissolve plugin. The preview image what is shown in dissolve plugin dialog is not just the selected layer, but also some extra pixels around the selected layer.
Do I need to set any flag for getting only selected layer data to display in preview?
Also I need to get only the selected area in a particular layer. When I checked FilterRecordPtr, haveMask flag is TRUE if the part of the layer is selected. But how do I get only the part of the layer that is selected for displaying preview image?
Please let me know if the description is not clear.
Thanks,
Dheeraj

Thanks Tom Ruark for the response.
That is exactly the same thing what I'm seeing.
1.Is there a direct way to know the bounds of the layer without the transparency grid so that I can show only the layer?
2. If I select an area of 50*50 within a layer(1000*1000) using Rectangular Marquee tool, then I want only that selected area to be shown in preview. For this there is a haveMask flag which indicates whether or not there is selection, but the selected bounds are not available. I'm currently calculating the bounds. I just wanted to know if Photoshop SDK has any field for getting the bounds?

How to Get Cursor Position in a Table

Hi Experts,
I have a table, with input fields. I have a button to add as many rows as I want. For the second column I have
a OVS. Now assume I have added 3 rows and I want to edit the first row again. So I click the first row and click
on the OVS selector, and finally when I select a value in the OVS it comes to the Third row, that is the row
with the Lead Selection. How do I get it to come in the first row?

Hi Murli,
If I understand your requirement correctly, you have table which has OVS for one field. If this problem is only because of leadselection you can disable the lead selection by setting selectionMode property of the table to none. Try it out once.
But I guess the problem might be different, you can try like this.
Create a child node for the table node with Cardinality 1...1 Singleton false
Create the attribute and impliment OVS and bind this to your second column of the table.
Regards,
Siva
