How to set a condition based on whether the following test is selected

Hi,
In addition to the 'Full Test' (Run UUTs), I would also like to allow for 'Partial Test' (Run Selected Steps Using Single Pass).
In order to run 'Partial Test' I must run some precondition steps.
I was thinking to write an 'Action type' step and in its precondition section to set:
a) run only in 'Partial Test' (I already have a flag for that)
b) run only if the next step (or any specific test for that matter..) is marked for testing.
My questions:
1) Is my approach appropriate or is there a better way to achieve the same goal?
2) How would you specify a condition of a specific test being marked for testing?
Thanks

Hello Rafi,
If your sequence file contains steps that you will always want to run before running your selected steps, it is best to place those steps inside the Setup step group. So when you run the selected steps, the steps in the Setup step group will always run. This way you do not need to use preconditions.
However, if you only want those steps to run when you select run selected steps and not when you run Test UUTs; you will have to use preconditions. I would still place those steps inside of the Setup step group. As a side note, there is a TestStand API method Execution.InInteractiveMode which will return a Boolean true if you choose to run selected steps.
In response to your second question, I would not think that you will need to mark a test using the above method since run selected steps will run all steps currently selected.
I hope that this information is helpful.

How do i use conditional formatting to edit the color of other selected other cells?

I have been playing around with the conditional formatting feature of Numbers, I have figured out how to change font and background color of the cell i am working with.
However what i am looking to do is apply a background color formatting to another cell (i.e. F2) if conditions are met in (B2).
the end game is this,
I want to make a column of check boxes, and using contional formating i want adject cells to change color (I.e. the example above: if (B2) is a check box, then when unchecked the reffered Cell (F2) does nothing, but when check the color of (F2) changes)
I can make this happen with Logic equations, the give (i.e. F2) some letter or number value, then using conditional formats i can have the color change. but this leaves that particular cell useless to me (i.e. F2) I am not free to enter or edit text in that cell. (i.e. =IF(B2=TRUE,"Paid","Due") ----> then add a conditional statement that chages color when the value is either "Paid" or "Due")
How do i have F2 change color, when B2 is checked and still retain the ability to enter information (or potential have another formula) in F2? (The Cell is not used up by "Paid" or "Due" it is editable just like any other cell)
is there anyway to change cell characteristics like font, color, and background color inside a formula, because in that way i would be able build it manually
i tried using the formula editor inside the conditional format pane, but the only infor it will allow me to retain is one partictular cell. i cannot add modifiers like "+" or "=" or anything else. what is that space used for then?
thanks for anyones help

MC,
You can do what you want in Numbers. It requires an auxiliary column and it's a bit tedious to set up because conditional formatting by comparison to another cell isn't relative, so each cell has to be programmed individually with no option to Paste or Fill to other cells in a range.
For explanation purposes, let's say your checkbox is A2, your cell to be conditionally formatted is B2, and your auxiliary cell is C2. To have the format of B2 determined by the checkbox status in A2, you will:
1. In C2 write: =IF(A, B, " ") The " " is any string or value that you don't expect to encounter in B normally, and using the space character means you don't have to worry about having it visible if C is in View.
2. In B2 use Conditional Format: "Equal To" cell C2 and set your text and fill attributes to be used when the box in A is checked.
That's it. Do that for every cell in the range.

How to set dynamic color , based on xml element

Hi,
We have a requirement, where based on certain conditions, a cell will be shown in a specific color. We would like the coloir to be based on an XML element. The xml element will have values like '#FF00FF' etc..
We tried using xsl attribute with the following syntax ,
<xsl:attribute xdofo:ctx="block"name="color"><?stdcolor?></xsl:attribute><?end if?>
where stdcolor is the xml element, but when we use this , this is giving a syntax error.
Let us know, if this is possible or is there any other alternate way to do this.
Regards,

Hi Vasu,
http://winrichman.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-to-set-dynamic-color-based-on-xml.html

How I set a value to only parameter one of them , such as set
GoodsID when use mx:remoteObject.
Thanks for your help

Got maybe a solution for you, I have just tested it.
So, the idea is to use intermediate variables. Imagine Var1 and Var2 variables that you refresh with your more or less complicated queries. Then what you can do is to refresh your final variable Var3 with a query using your intermediate variables. Here is an example for Oracle:
select #Var1+#Var2 from dual
This way you can make a chain of dependent variables: Var3 is using Var2 and Var2 is using Var1.
Hope it helps.

How to add byte[] array based Image to the SQL Server without using parameter

how to add byte[] array based Image to the SQL Server without using parameter.I have a column in table with the type image in sql and i want to add image array to the sql image column like below:
I want to add image (RESIM) to the procedur like shown above but sql accepts byte[] RESIMI like System.Drowing. I whant that sql accepts byte [] array like sql image type
not using cmd.ParametersAdd() method
here is Isle() method content

SQL Server binary constants use a hexadecimal format:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms179899.aspx
You'll have to build that string from a byte array yourself:
byte[] bytes = ...
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder("0x", 2 + bytes.Length * 2);
foreach (var b in bytes)
builder.Append(b.ToString("X2"));
string binhex = builder.ToString();
That said, what you're trying to do - not using parameters - is the wrong thing to do. Not only it is insecure due to the risk of SQL injection but in the case of binary data is also inefficient since these hex strings are larger than the original byte[]
data.

How to set a specific width to all the TextInputs used in a mxml file on its creation complete?

How to set a specific width to all the TextInputs used in a mxml file on its creation complete?

Hi subhajit nag,
I think the best approach would what I say is if you can make use of a Global variable or using a Singleton class having a variable which can be accessed globally through out the application.
Below is the sample what I am talking to:
So in below example you can access the variables textInputWidth and textInputHeight globally throghout the application since you have decalred them in main mxml file.
You can access these variabled in another mxml file as Application.application.textInputWidth and Application.application.textInputHeight. So if at all you are required to modify these values you are only required to modify at a single place in main mxml file..thats it.
If you are use any Singleton classes like ModelLocator you can place these variables in this class and refer from that class.
Hope this resoved your problem..
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="vertical">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[Bindable]private var textInputWidth:int = 250;
[Bindable]private var textInputHeight:int = 25;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Canvas id="canvas1">
<mx:TextInput id="txt1" width="{textInputWidth}" height="{textInputHeight}"/>
</mx:Canvas>
<mx:Canvas id="canvas2">
<mx:TextInput id="txt2" width="{textInputWidth}" height="{textInputHeight}"/>
</mx:Canvas>
<mx:Canvas id="canvas3">
<mx:TextInput id="txt3" width="{textInputWidth}" height="{textInputHeight}"/>
</mx:Canvas>
<mx:TextInput id="txt4" width="{textInputWidth}" height="{textInputHeight}"/>
<mx:TextInput id="txt5" width="{textInputWidth}" height="{textInputHeight}"/>
</mx:Application>

I also don't understand, but if you mean how to display only files with a certain extension in your JFileChooser then you should have a look at the JFileChooser API:

The introduction shows an example of how to do that.

This is for a special URL that starts with

is that right?
Two thoughts:
(1) Could you try changing a setting for your Garmin plugin. Here's what I mean:
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
Find your Garmin plugin change "Ask to Activate" to "Always Activate".
Your system information seems to list two different versions of a similarly named plugin. I'm not sure whether that is causing a problem.
(2) Does Garmin's documentation specify any extra steps to set up Firefox, other than installing its add-ons?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.
