How to set default sort order for all folders/albums/etc

This is driving me nuts, having to change the sort order from manual to file name every time I change projects or folders (and I have a lot of both). Is there a way to set the default to just sort by file name ascending? Or sort by timestamp (that's date + time, not just date)?

I am in process of doing some rearrangement to make Projects as the main box (the file drawer) with headings like: iPhone, Assignments, Events, Landscape, People, Travel. Then, a specific folder under the project. Then, an Album under the Folder.
This should be started as a new thread -- do so if you have any questions.
Strongly recommend using Projects as intended (see comments by Frank and DLSCreative in current thread ^1^ and long comment by me in another thread ^2^ ). In your case that would mean Folders with the headings you've selected, the (most likely) Projects, then Albums (and perhaps more Folders).

How to set default sorting order in ADF Table

Hi,
I want to set the default sorting order as ascending in adf table. Please help me regarding how can we do it.
Using JDev 11.1.1.5.0

Hi Frank,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I have done binding of table with list of pojos.
The Class for which Data control is created is as:-
public class DemoDC {
    private List<TableEntity> tableList =
        new ArrayList<TableEntity>();
    public List<TableEntity> getTableList() {
        return tableList;
    public void setTableList(List<TableEntity> tableList) {
        this.tableList = tableList;
where TableEntity is a pojo which has all the columns as its attributes.
Now when i do the above steps , after clicking on pencil icon and seecting the iterator name in the iterator tab (DemoDC-> tableList) , and selcting the 'sort criteria' tab when i select a column and try to set the sort order I get error as ' Iterator can not be created for the selected node ' .

Default Sort Order for Library View

It would be fantastic if there were a user defined preference for a default sort order in Library view. For example, some users may prefer to always view the images by File Name, or Rating, etc, without having to change the sort order for each individual folder they view via Lightroom.
Thanks!

Thanks for your suggestion Allan, but it doesn't work.
I'm specifically referring to the defaults that Aperture 3 adopts when you use the "File, Import, Folders as Projects with the projects and albums setting.
What I'm finding is regardless of the setting in the Library preferences, the default sort order for the project is Date and Manual for the album.
Yet if I create a project manually the default sort order is as per the Library prefs. Strange.

How to configure default parental settings for all users (10.7)?

Hello,
I've made a silent installation of iTunes using MSI files and it works well.
I need to enable parental controls and configure it. Users must be preventing of changing these settings.
At the end of the iTunes installation I automatically created registry keys :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes\Parental Controls]
"AdminFlags"=dword:001b7ac5
"AdminMoviesLimit"=dword:000000c8
"AdminTVShowsLimit"=dword:000001f4
"AdminRatingSystemID"=dword:0000000b
"AdminGamesLimit"=dword:0000012c
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2102 it is the procedure to set default parental settings for all users and to lock these settings.
When iTunes is first launched, parental settings are not set nor locked.
I use iTunes 64 bits on Windows 7 64 bits.
Where is the mistake?
Thanks in advance.

How to set a common page for all users after loging on?

hi all,
Now "My Dashboard" is the default page after logon.
i want to set a default home page for all users. users can see the home page after loging on.
how to change the default dashboard from "My Dashboard" to "Home page" for all users?
thanks,
dan

Hi,
Steps:
Tried to set default dashboard for all the users.
1. Created a session init block
2. Used data source as select '/shared/SH Test/_portal/Test1' from dual
3. Assigned this value to PORTALPATH session variable
4. In Presentation services > Administration > My account > Default dashboard should be set to 'default'. Then only the dashboard specified in init block will be displayed otherwise My account will override the init block.
5. Save the changes made to rpd.
5. Logout and relogin to see if it is working fine. it is working perfectly fine.
For details please refer the GSC replication document. But it is for all the users.
if customer would like to have user/group based home page.
1. They may need to have 2 separate tables.
i. Group_path_tab with 2 columns. Group_id, portal_path
Have group wise portal path for all the groups
ii. User-group map table
Group_id, Group_name, user_id
User should be part of some group.
2. Then in the init block write the sql should be something like this
select A.portal_path from Group_path_tab A, User_group_map B
where B.user_id = :USER
and B.Group_id = A.Group_id
SO based on USER session variable, it will try to identify the group and then the portal_path.
Finally assign this value to PORTALPATH session variable.

ICal setting default message alarm for all events

I want to change when I get message/alarms for all events (birthdays, etc.) from 2 days before to 4 days before. I find that I can only change this for single events (e.g., a specific person's birthday rather than all persons' birthdays). Is there a way to change the default so that I get my warning alarm message for all events 4 days in advance instead of 2 days?

I miss appointments b/c of this too.
And no, Apple does not read these forums UNLESS you comment on how pathetic and Mickey Mouse certain elements of their software is - like no 'default' setting for alarms in iCal, and not being able to resize windows from all edges (vs. the little annoying corner) etc etc.
I hope they fix it with the new software package in Leopard. I'm somewhat afraid it's going to be 'Leper' at first though. We'll see...

How to restore default sort order on a table?

Have an ADF table with some sortable columns, populated by an SQL view (having its own Order By).
Looking for a way to let user revert to default sort order after sorting columns.
Currently, I have a button linked to:
public String cmdRefreshOrders() {
this.getTblOrders().setSortCriteria(null);
DCIteratorBinding iter = ADFUtils.findIterator("iterUnderlyingTable");
iter.executeQuery();
return null;
This doesn't work
Any ideas?

Tried. Doesn't work.
Iterator doesn't have a setOrderByClause() -- closest I see is applySortCriteria(), which takes an array of SortCriterias, not a String. Might be able to parse Order By string to create array of SortCriterias, but this smells wrong. Probably wouldn't work anyway because ...
Tried doing iter.applySortCriteria(null) before executeQuery. This accomplished nothing -- the sort created from clicking the column header persisted.
Looks to me like the sort is persisting as some property in the table or in the display column.
Any more ideas?
Thanks
Ed

How can I set default toolbar layout for all users in my system?

Hi everybody! I am running a local ubuntu server at my office. I can set some defaults preferences (about:config) for all new users in the system by defining those prefs in the /etc/firefox/syspref.js.
Now, I want to define default toolbar layout in a similar way (maybe not needed but fun), to copy the toolbar layout for my user. Is there a general way to do that?
thank you in advance!

You can try to create a default template folder (defaults/profile) in the Firefox and place the file(s) in that folder for newly created profile.
The only way to customize an existing profile is to copy files directly to it.

Setting a default folder view for all folders in Windows 7

How do you set up a default folder view of "List" for ALL the folders in Windows 7 including the optical drive?
Artoo

I just installed windows 7. Are you seriously telling me that i now have all folders with mp3s in them AUTOMAGICALLY (THANKS FOR THE HANDY HELPING HAND THERE MICROSOFT!!!) set to some designers whim of what an mp3 folder "SHOULD" look like?
Well i was going to write a big rant, and indeed did, but then i was doing some more research and it seems like i just made everyones day and solved the problem (partially). Or well THIS guy did:
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/16694/customize-the-five-windows-folder-templates/
After you’ve clicked OK, visit some of the other folders in your file system. You should see that most have taken on these new settings.
What we’ve just done, in effect, is we have customized the General Items template. This is one of five templates that Windows Explorer uses to display folder contents. The five templates are called (in Windows 7):
General Items
Documents
Pictures
Music
Videos
When a folder is opened, Windows Explorer examines the contents to see if it can automatically determine which folder template to use to display the folder contents. If it is not obvious that the folder contents falls into any of the last four templates,
then Windows Explorer chooses the General Items template. That’s why most of the folders in your file system are shown using the General Items
template.
Changing the Other Four Templates
If you want to adjust the other four templates, the process is very similar to what we’ve just done. If you wanted to change the “Music” template, for example, the steps would be as follows:
Select a folder that contains music items
Apply the existing Music template to the folder (even if it doesn’t look like you want it to)
Customize the folder to your personal preferences
Apply the new template to all “Music” folders
A fifth step would be: When you open a folder that contains music items but is not automatically displayed using the Music template, you manually select the Music template for that folder.
Anyways, sorry that explanation doesnt do it justice. I have spent waaay too much time trying to figure this out already. Also that link doesnt say how to 1) copy templates (are they file or registry based?, didnt do research) 2) if you can distable templates
or the automatic re-templating of folders.
THAT is what i want to know! as it is much more maintance then its actually worth...
but once i had set 5 default types to, the exact same thing... it now doesnt matter if it automagically switches it. SUCK IT MS AUTOTUNE!!!
Its bloody hard to frame this question too. What can you say about this? "folder changes to mp3" "customize folder types windows 7" "windows 7 folder changes to mp3" "dont automatically change folders to mp3" "how
to change mp3 details column for good" "automatically change column order win 7 mp3"
The search that actually solved it:
"do not apply default template to mp3 windows 7"
good luck, this worked for me!
EDIT: also i just noticed that neonr already answered this above. i just didnt read it carefully enough. anyways i guess i will leave this and mark his as answer.

How to change default action "alarm" for all signatures ?

My question belongs to a Cisco 1712 (128 MB, IOS 12.3T, SDM 2.5 installed):
I'm trying to change the default action "alarm" to "alarm,reset,drop" for all signatures of my custom set.
However doing so via SDM fails. First, it appears as being done correctly, but after compiling the signatures again, the default values are back there (in the same sense, I was unable to delete signatures, works just using the CLI).
I followed the instructions at cisco.com:
router(config)#ip ips signature-definition
router(config-sigdef)#signature 6130 10
router(config-sigdef-sig)#engine
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action produce-alert
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action deny-packet-inline
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action reset-tcp-connection
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#exit
However ip ips signature-definition is not understood by the router, so the procedure fails.
Can you please assist me ?

You can use IOS command-line interface (CLI) to change signature actions for one signature or a group of signatures based on signature categories. The following example shows how to change signature action to alert, drop and reset for signature 6130 with subsig ID of 10.
router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
router(config)#ip ips signature-definition
router(config-sigdef)#signature 6130 10
router(config-sigdef-sig)#engine
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action produce-alert
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action deny-packet-inline
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#event-action reset-tcp-connection
router(config-sigdef-sig-engine)#exit
router(config-sigdef-sig)#exit
router(config-sigdef)#exit
Do you want to accept these changes? [confirm]y

How to set default number format for whole app

Hi!
I have a bunch of View Objects and I have to set the format for each attribute of type number. I've tried using
MyAtt_FMT_FORMAT=#,##0.00
MaAtt_FMT_FORMATTER=oracle.jbo.format.DefaultNumberFormatter
on just a couple of attributes and it works OK. But since I have a lot of number fields across application in a lots of view objects, I would like to set this format as default for all the number fields in my application.
Can I do that and if yes, how?
Thanks

you can use Domains.

How to set up secondary WLC for all APs at once?

We added a new controller to the group which we want to be as a secondary for all WAPs. How can I set it up so that I don't have to go to each AP individually? Can this be done on the controller or from the WCS?

WCS.
Configure > AP Template > Lightweight AP > Add Template > Make a name > Save
Under AP Parameters Tab, right-hand column, tick the "Controllers" and choose the secondary controller in the drop down menu.
To the left-hand column, scroll down and put a tick in the "Secondary Controller IP Address" and enter the IP address of the Secondary Controller.
Go to the Select AP tab and find the WAP based on the controller name (fastest way to find it) and choose them. Go to the Apply/Schedule tab and click the "Apply" button.
All done.

How to set default Web Template for BEx Query iViews in Portal?

Hi,
1) In SPRO you can set the Standard Web Template used, e.g. ZANALYSIS_PATTERN1.
2) I published a query to Portal and when it runs within Portal, I want it to use a different web template, say ZANALYSIS_PATTERN2.
I don't want to change the BEx Web Application Query String property for each iView to hardcode the template e.g. to "QUERY=TestQuery1&TEMPLATE=ZANALYSIS_PATTERN2"
I only want the query name in the iView
Can I set this somewhere in Portal? I tried changing the standard "BEx Web Analyzer" iView as mentioned in
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/33/39fa40ee14f26fe10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm (BEx Web Application or Query as iView in the Portal)
but it still seems to take the template from SPRO even after restarting J2EE

Hi,
I don't think anyone is holding back knowledge, I think it's sometimes difficult to filter out "good" questions as opposed to "bad" questions...
In any case, I don't think it's possible to have different default templates, eg one for the portal and one for the "rest". I'm afraid you'll have to either change each one on the portal or use one for all.
Cheers,
Dion
