How to set a Guide at the start of a shape?

hello:                                                                                                                Level: Newbie-intermediate  OS: Win 7  Ps. Cs6
i have been searching for the answer to this question but i think that maybe i don't know how to ask it properly in the FAQ's or manual search box and so i've come here for help.
hopefully i can do better at asking it here.
when using View > New Guide ... can i get the Guide to place itself up against a Shape in the center of the Canvas (or where ever the shape is located), without knowing the Position to set the Guide at?
i thought that maybe Selecting the Shape would work but as you probably already know ... it didn't
am i way off and just hoping for something that doesn't exist?
thanx so much for your time!!

Hi JJ,
sorry, but i guess i'm a bit slow on the reuptake lately.
also, i'm asking my question in the wrong way. my not understanding is totally my doing.
i don't really understand what ticking the options under 'Snap to' does. it seems rather they are ticked or not that i still must enter the Position for the Guide.
i think this is what i've been trying to get at ... is there a way to "tell" the Guide tool that i want a Guide ... say, 10px in from the start/edge of the shape?
and rather then Position 0 being at the edge of the canvas can it be set so that it'll "think" Position 0 is at the start of a Shape instead?
so, rather than knowing that the Shape is ... say, 80px in from the left and so having to then set the 1st Guide to 80px and then the next to 90px.
i think if there is a way that it could cut down on my having to measure so much to properly place guides.
i hope this helps you to help me. and hey, most of all thank you so much for hanging in there with me & for trying to help. i really appreciate it.

  • How to set white spaces between the fields in dataset??

    Hi all,
    I am writing a set on information to from infotypes to a text file. Its a fixed width file. How do set white spaces in the fields for dataset?

    problem lies in the open dataset codes
    Used:
    open dataset out_file for output in text mode encoding non-unicode message msg.
    if sy-subrc= 0.
    loop at my_table.
    transfer my_table to out_file
    transfer cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline to out_file no end of line.
    endloop.

    How to set a cookie in the browser from an html page called via an Iview
    Hello all,
    I have an issue which is causing problems. I have a snap survey (html form with submit and cookie setting) which is embedded in a url iview.
    Although the submit and the form work fine, the portal will not allow the cookie to be set it seems.
    Is there a way to allow cookies to be set from an embedded page in a url iview??
    You will make my day if you know!
    System: EP7 SP13
    Kind regards
    Alex

    Hi,
    Check this:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/same_cookie_domain_with_pdkv2.html
    Cookie Basics
    Web browsers have built in rules for receiving and sending cookies. When a browser makes a request to a web server and the web server returns cookies with the response, the browser will only accept a cookie if the domain associated with the cookie matches that of the original request. Similarly, when a browser makes a subsequent request, it will only send those cookies whose domain matches that of the target web server.
    These rules are designed to ensure that information encoded in cookies is only "seen" by the web server(s) that the originator of the cookie intended. These rules also ensure that the cookie cannot be corrupted or imitated by another server. By default, the domain associated with a cookie exactly matches that of the server that created it. However, it is possible to modify the domain at the time the cookie is created. Relaxing the cookie domain increases the scope of the cookie's visibility making it available to a wider "audience" of web servers.
    For example, if a cookie is created by a.us.oracle.com, it's domain will usually be set to a.us.oracle.com. This means that the browser will only send the cookie to a.us.oracle.com. It will never send it to any other servers. However, if at the time of creation, the domain of the cookie is set to .us.oracle.com, the browser will send the cookie to any server whose domain falls within .us.oracle.com. such as portal.us.oracle.com, provider.us.oracle.com, app.us.oracle.com etc

  • C How to Set Isolation Level in the Connection String

    How to Set Isolation Level in the Connection String using the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 Version 4.0"?
    We are trying to move from Crystal Reporting that run against a IBM DB2 database on a mainfram to SSRS reporting and we have downloaded the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 Version 4.0" and then worked with the DB2 Administrator to create the
    Packages.  We only have access to use the "Read Uncommitted ("MSUR001") package.   We were able to connect and pull data before he removed access to the other packages, but after setting access the Connection keeps trying to use
    the 'Cursor Stability (MSCS001)" package.   How do we change the Default to the "Read Uncommitted ("MSUR001") package???   Since it is keeps defaulting to the the other package
    we can't connect to do it in the T-SQL query, it has to be set at the Connection String level.

    Hi Dannyboy1263,
    According to your description, you want to set the Transaction Isolation Level in Connection String. Right?
    In Reporting Services, the Connection String for OLE DB Connection can only contains Provider, Data Source and Initial Catalog. There's no property for setting Transaction Isolation Level in the Connection String. Based on my knowledge, we can
    only set the Transaction Isolation Level at Query level or set it by using code (C#, VB, Java...) to call the property of Connection. So unfortunately your requirement can't be achieved currently.
    Reference:
    OLE DB Connection Type (SSRS)
    Data Connections, Data Sources, and Connection Strings in Reporting Services
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,

  • How to set InDesign CS5 as the default in the system having InDesign CS4 has the default ?

    How to set InDesign CS5 as the default .indd application when you have InDesign CS4 and CS5 installed and InDesign CS4 is the current default (InDesign CS4 was installed after CS5 installation)

    Thanks, but I already tried it at first but it is not the effective method.
    I think its because of the this reason :
    Both - InDesign CS4 and InDesign CS5 have their application/program/exe named as "indesign.exe".
    Installation of either InDesign CS4 or InDesign CS5, sets a Windows default path for the "indesign.exe". In this case, since InDesign CS4 was installed later (after InDesign CS5 was already installed), the "indesign.exe" which was directing InDesign CS5's "indesign.exe" was replaced by InDesign CS4's "indesign.exe".
    But after long google and search through regedit, I've got the solution :
    Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InDesign.Document\Shell\Open\Command in regedit
    Change the value of (Default) attribute to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS5.5\InDesign.exe" "%1"     // Include the quotes

  • "The end date can't be set to occur before the start date" issue

    I have a subscribed calendar that draws from data in a Filemaker database. In all of these records, the start date & end date are the same. When I try to refresh the description, it fails with a "NSCocoaErrorDomain / error 1560" error, and the console log shows "The end date can't be set to occur before the start date."
    Well, it doesn't occur before the start date. It's the same as the start date. I can work around this by setting my Filemaker database to add a day to the end date, but that's a clunky solution.
    Anyone else run into anything like this?
    (iCal 4.0.3 and OS X 10.6.4, btw)

    It may not be the same problem, but the message was the same (end date...etc). I tore my hair out at the time trying to solve it. It was on my fathers computer. Everything appeared to be correct and consistent. What solved it was logging into MobileMe/account/personal info/time zone, where I found the time zone was wrong. I can't remember the detail now but at the time it seemed like a third place where time had to be correct. Worth your checking there anyway.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
