How to get UIComponent of the selected node in af:tree with drag and drop

Hi
Are there examples showing how one could get a UIComponent using DropEvent to be used with a Popup showing as a custom "context menu" at the target node ?
Right now, with dropEvent.getDropComponent, we could only get the tree.
We like to get its selected node so that the popup shows at the node level, not at the tree level.
Thanks

Hi Frank
Thanks for responding.
We like to show on our custom "context menu" using PopupHints (not using facet name contextmenu) with 3 commandMenuItems.
Since component id is needed by PopupHints to place this custom "context menu", we tried
RichTree dropTree = (RichTree)dropEvent.getDropComponent();
alignId = dropTree.getClientId(context);
// alignId = pt1:pt_region1:1:pt1:pc1:navTree
getClientId returns us the tree id and hence the context menu is placed next to tree.
We like to place the context menu next to a target node of the tree when dragging and dropping.
But we couldn't figure out how to get that node id.
In your suggestion,
List dropRowKey = (List) dropEvent.getDropSite();
RichTree dropComponent = (RichTree) dropEvent.getDropComponent();
dropCompoent.setRowKey(dropRowKey);
how do we then get the id of this node then ? What's the method ?
Thanks Frank

How to get UIDRef of the selected page item in indesign cs3

Hi,
I want to get the UIDRef of the selected page item like Rectangle Frame. Can you show me the complete code snippet to get the UIDRef of selected Rectangle Frame. I need this UIDRef for getting the geometric bounds properties(width and height) of the selected rectangle frame to display the user in dialog box.
Regards,
K.Saravanan.

Hi,
UIDList selection;
InterfacePtr<ISelectionManager> pSelectionManager(Utils<ISelectionUtils>()->GetActiveSelection(), ISelectionManager::kDefaultIID);
if(pSelectionManager == nil){
break;
InterfacePtr<ILayoutTarget> pLayoutTarget(pSelectionManager->QueryConcreteSelectionBoss(kNewLayoutSelectionBoss), ILayoutTarget::kDefaultIID);
if(pLayoutTarget == nil){
break;
selection = pLayoutTarget->GetUIDList(kDontStripStandoffs);
Then, you can use this interface "IGeometry" to get information about spline size.
InterfacePtr<IGeometry> pGeometry(selection.GetRef(i), IGeometry::kDefaultIID);
if(pGeometry== nil){
break;
PMRect splineBounds = pGeometry->GetStrokeBoundingBox();
PMReal width = splineBounds.Height();
PMReal hight = splineBounds.Width();

How can i get the selected PageItem in InDesign

Hi
i received the hint to post the message into this forum. so i try it...
After implementing a floating panel and receiveing the "afterSelectionChanged"-Event i would like to get the selected PageItem, if one is selected...
In the datastructure i can only find the activeLayer (event.target.activeLayer) and the activePage (event.target.activeLayer), but no activePageItem or so.
Is there a possibility to get this PageItem?
best thanks for any hint.

How to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page AND move things

I usually work in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, but am creating two newsletter templates in Pages for a colleague, since it will be easier for her. But, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get rid of the main text box in the back of the page that is driving me crazy. I just want a nice blank page that I can do whatever I want with. AND, I can't figure out how to select things so that I can move them, like shapes and text boxes. Some things seem to move fine, then other things just sit there. I am at the end of my rope!!!

Hi, Dylan. Welcome to Discussions.
If you're referring to the area where you just start typing when you open a new blank document, you can't get rid of it. But you also don't have to use it. You can insert text boxes and size and position them as you desire. Just be sure they're defined as Fixed on Page. When one is full and you want to continue it to another page (or to the side), click in the blank blue box on the lower right side of the text box. That will create another box and your overflow text will flow into it. Then position it where needed.
Also, you can create a text box the width of the page and then set it for 2 or more columns.
When you want to send something to the back and you may want to access it again later, just use the send backward command. If you send it all the way to the back, it will be behind the main text layer (where it will be safe from acvcidental movement) but you will have to click outside the work area and then drag the pointer to the object to select it.
Hope this helps to get you started.

How to get paragraph number of selected text in ID CS4

Hi,
Can anybody help me how to get paragraph number of selected text in Indesign cs4.
Thanks,
Gopal

Ah, I see -- thanks. Turns out that there's no difference in speed between texts.itemByRange(), characters.itemByRange(),and insertionPoints.itemByRange(). In a document with 170 pages of text, and with the cursor in the last paragraph, the second and third lines, below (and your function), give exactly the same result:
t = app.selection[0];
t.parentStory.texts.itemByRange (t.parentStory.insertionPoints[0], t).paragraphs.length;
t.parentStory.characters.itemByRange (t.parentStory.characters[0], t).paragraphs.length;

USERENV('TERMINAL')
we had written a triggers on tables on Insert/Update where we used to update a database field Last user terminal with USERENV('TERMINAL')

hi, you can use the sys_context function, like this:
select sys_context('userenv','current_user'),
     sys_context('userenv','os_user'),
     sys_context('userenv','host'),
     sys_context('userenv','ip_address'),
     sys_context('userenv','instance'),
     sys_context('userenv','sessionid'),
     sys_context('userenv','terminal')
from dual;
Is this what you 're looking for?

How do I check if the associated PageItem is there/exists from a XMLElement ?

Hi,
I have the following structure:
Extension Builder 1.5;
InDesign 5.0;
Image (Rectangule Frame);
XML tag associated with the Image.
The following scenario:
I do have an application that checks if this strucuture is available and intact, that is, the user has not deleted the tag (XMLElement) and/or the Rectangule Frame(PageItem);
I do not want loop through allPageItems (the page should have many of them - more than 1000) and get the XMLElement;
So, I loop over the XMLElements and get the associated PageItem through xmlElement.xmlContent property;
The document images properties (image, epss, etc) never are populated (document.epss.length = 0);
I can validate if the tag was deleted or untaged easy.
The problem:
User deletes the Image/Rectangule Frame (PageItem) and keep the xml tag (untag the XMLElement);
The isValid property (xmlElement.isValid = true) is true;
The associated PageItem becomes a Text and is valid as well;
The question:
How do I check if the associated PageItem is there/exists from a XMLElement ?

I had to manually download the new version of itunes.. via tools, it gave me 4 items to download and i did not download all 4 compenants. Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that contains tools so i can redownlaod all of them.

I lost my old iphone and have a new 5s.. i need to sync to itunes. i had to donwload manually via tools but i didnt download all four files. now when i plug my phone into itunes it says there is an error bc i didnt download all the files. so when i go into itunes now and check for updates it says its up to date. the problem is with the phone support file i didnt download.
Does anyone know how to get back to the pop up that has the music player update and itunes update bc this is the only place i have seen "tools" to be able to manually update all four files....
***IF i completely uninstall itunes and reinstall will it still have all my songs, photos, apps etc... bc i need to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back

this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me...

HOw to get rid of the borderline in the render list item of the news brows

HI,
HOw to get rid of the renderlist
border line,
Give Feedback link
Send To link in the news browser.
After removing thiese things, it should look like a normal html page .
how to achive this ,
if coding required then which is the par file I need to modify
thanks
pkiran

Hi PKG,
the "GiveFeedback" and "SendTo" links are called "FlexUI" commands. Most of that stuff is highly configurable and naturally you can remove them in the KM Configuration at
SystemAdmin->SystemConfig->KM->CM->UserInterface
-> ... -> ResourceRnderer
Your ResourceRenderer uses a CommandGroup. In this CommandGroup you can add/remove commands.
For example un your case its the CommandGroup "NewsDisplayGroup"
Kind Regards
