How would you draw a soccer goal?

Hi guys,
this might be really basic for the pro's out there, but I'm
just a beginner with Fireworks.
Basically, I'm trying to draw a soccer goal (at least the
frame of it) making it look like metal. There are styles that
provide this sort of finish in Fireworks, however, the problem is
that I cannot come up with a shape for the purpose. If I just draw
three lines (post, crossbar, post), and apply metal finish to them,
they look cut off and not very nice. But a rectangular box
obviously has the bottom line too much.
How do you do that??
Thanks for any tips,
Jan

Hmm.
I did a Google search for images of soccer goals. I guess it
depends on how stylized you want your image to be, or how
realistic. I think a fairly realistic image would be on the
difficult side.
The tricky thing is that you're trying to represent something
that is made of pipes (usually round), so you need to indicate this
volume with shading. The shading on the crossbar won't be the same
as the shading on the uprights. I also noted the welded joints
where the crossbar attaches to the uprights. Somehow, you need to
indicate these seams. Another thing that might help you is to use
an angle which is not straight on. Perspective enhances realism.
Many of the images I saw showed goals that have more pieces than
just the uprights and crossbar, either at the top or the bottom to
hold the net. Then, of course, there's the net. These details will
help make your image look more realistic, and more like a goal. The
metallic finish would really be the last thing to add realism. You
need to get the shapes right, first.
Before trying to draw a goal, study real ones. Here are a
couple of different goals:
goal
post from rectangular pipe
goal
post from round pipe
And...here's the
Google
search for soccer goal images.
Good luck!

How do you draw a tie of two notes in the score editor window

How do you draw a simple tie in the score editor window of Logic Pro 10 ; two quarter notes together, an eighth up-beat accross a bar line into the next measure etc? I can't find the answer in videos, help manual. Please give a step by step how to do it.
It's hard to believe that a program like Logic, that has more information than the New York Public Library, does not have a simple solution for tieing notes. Maybe Logic XI will have one, or "Logicians" can speak to Sibelius for a more "note-worthy" way to solving the problem so that the score editor can be more accessible for editing purposes for those that read and write manuscript. Lew Traver

Hi
Ties are generally automatically created as necessary. Simply adjust the length of the note in the Score (using DurationBars or the Inspector), or in the Piano Roll or Event list.

How would YOU retype these old XM08 types for use in an ABAP OO method?

The XM08 function group has the following type declarations:
TYPES: BEGIN OF mmcr_drseg_co.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE cobl_mrm_d.
TYPES: cr LIKE drseg_cr    OCCURS 0,
       unpl_refwr TYPE refwr,
       END OF mmcr_drseg_co.
TYPES: mmcr_tdrseg TYPE mmcr_drseg OCCURS 0,
TYPES: BEGIN OF mmcr_drseg.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE drseg.
TYPES: cr LIKE drseg_cr OCCURS 0,
       co TYPE mmcr_drseg_co OCCURS 0,
       sm LIKE drseg_sm OCCURS 0,
       charact TYPE rbcharact_instance OCCURS 3,
                                       "instances of characteristics
       uebgmat TYPE matnr,
       uebrblgp TYPE rblgp,
       selkz_db TYPE selkz,
       rblgp_old TYPE rblgp,           "rblgp before aggregation
       END OF mmcr_drseg.
How would YOU redeclare these types so that they work in an ABAP Objects class?
Some of the "fixes" are easy, like replacing "LIKE" with "TYPE:".
But what about the "INCLUDE STRUCTURE" and the "occurs 0" specifications?
The reason I'm asking this is that I have to call a method from ZXM08U16 and I'd like to be able to pass this method exactly what XXM08U16 gets from SAP, i.e. the table E_TDRSEG of type MMCR_TDRSEG

David,
I wonder it can be directly in ABAP (I would like to hear opinions from others as well!), I needed to use Data Dictionary as well:
TYPES: BEGIN OF mmcr_drseg_co.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE cobl_mrm_d.
TYPES: cr TYPE z_tt_drseg_cr,
       unpl_refwr TYPE refwr,
       END OF mmcr_drseg_co.
z_tt_drseg_cr is a table type created in SE11, based on structure drseg_cr.
the way to create internal table and work area, based on the above:
DATA : gt_... TYPE TABLE OF mmcr_drseg_co.
DATA : gw_... TYPE mmcr_drseg_co.
hope this helps some
ec
UPDATE : Rich is right, it is possible to do it only in ABAP with the DEFAULT KEY addition.

Disable the pop-up message box "How would you like to open this file" to open pdf file??

Hi,
is there any way i can stop the pop-up box displaying to open pdf file in sharepoint document library? Right now whenever i am trying to open pdf file, asking "how would you like to open" Read only or edit mode. currently MIME Type is setup
but still pop-up message box.
Thanks in advanced!

Hi ,
As far as I know, This is a default feature. and is not recommended to delete or deactivate this pop up.
This is a feature of office and there is a dll called owssupp.dll which is responsible for getting the popup to open.
You can go to IE tools> addon settings and deactivate the above dll (sharepoint open document class). But if you do so, then the other office office files which are word/excel/pptx etc.. would aslo gets affected and they also wont get the popup.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards, Ashok Yadala

How would you write a "wildcard" in a filefilter?

How would you go about to have a wildcard instead of the "*" in the following filefilter;
          File[] files = new File("./resultat/resultat_" + "*" + "_" + index[0]).listFiles (new FileFilter () {
                public boolean accept (File file) {
                    return ! file.isDirectory ();
          });All help appriciated
- Karl XII

Shouldn't "a*" accept all files that begins with "a" and ends with whatever?No. "*" in regexp is a not a wildcard match. Instead it matches one or more instances of the preceeding
value.
Therefore "a*" will match "a", "aa", "aaa", "aaaa" etc but will not match anything which does not end in
an "a".
The following might help you out. (not the most elegent expression but it will do
import java.util.regex.*;
public class RegExp{
public static void main(String[] args) {
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("a*b");
Matcher m = p.matcher("aaaab");
System.out.println(m.matches());
// interesting bit here
// match one or more occurances of any characters in the ASCII charset (the \\p{ASCII}* bit
p = Pattern.compile("hello_\\p{ASCII}*_b");
m = p.matcher("hello_wibble_b");
System.out.println(m.matches());
}

How would you pass more than 255 args?

I have an SFTP program that currently is only passed a single file. I am modifying it so that it will loop though an array of files to simulate an mput command. Originally I was just going to call the program with each file to be transferred as an argument but noticed the 255 argument limit. I am looking at potentially having 1500 - 2000 files to transfer at one time. I am just looking for advice on how this should be designed. One idea that was forwarded to me was to just create a listing of the files on the server and use that list file as my argument. Would this be the best approach for this issue?

I see no reason why you need an argument for every file.I would not necessarily need one for every file. Prior to our needing to use this for multiple files, it was easy enough to pass in one file as an argument. That is my question, how would you try to pass in a long list of files?Let's establish what you are concerned about. The 255 argument limit is on method signatures. From what you're saying here, you're talking about arguments being passed into your application from, say, the shell. Am I right?Correct, please see my clarified post. From what I have tested, the 255 argument limit appears to exist even for arguments passed to main.Ah, but arguments passed to main from the command line are passed into main as a single array of Strings, no matter how many of them there are. I have no idea what the limit on those is, but an array can hold millions of elements. I expect your shell will moan about that many, though.
As I see it, you have a few choices. Unless these files are all in different, arbitrary directories, you can specify a list of directories for your app to search. Or you can pass them all in one at a time, and see how you go. Or you can list them in a text file, pass that to your app and have it work them out. Or write a script that invokes your app multiple times. What you don't need, is a method that takes each file as an argument.Thank you for walking me through this. Would you mind telling me which way you would lean if you were designing this? The files will all be in a single directory on the server and I would not like to invoke the app multiple times as it creates a connection during each invocation. They're all in the single directory. Ok, are all the files in that directory to be transferred? If so, I'd just pass the directory name to the app, and have it iterate over all the files. If it's only to be certain ones, how do you know which ones? Is there some regex or filtering you can do on the command line?
If you are interested, the 255 argument limit for main that I tested was from this article:
[http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html|http://www.javaspecialists.eu/archive/Issue059.html]
It does die at 255 using Java 1.5.Like I said, arguments to a method are thus limited. But the args passed to an app are passed to main as one argument - an array. In short, that article is not relevant to your problem.

How would you go about saving an online image locally?

Say if you knew the url such as http://www.yahoo.com/img.jpg
How would you save this locally?

Read the answer in your previous posting:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=772451
Use the file as an InputStream to read the data and then use an OutputStream to write the file.
The logic is the same as reading and writing a file from disk once you have the InputStream.

How would you split a 10 GB root partition? Would you?

The system seems to be booting a little slow lately (been using Arch for more than a year now) and I was thinking of splitting the root partition to improve performance.
Right now the entire OS is on a single partition. I don't have a /home partition but I can see it's usefulness:
- files on /home are, in general, more frequently written (browser cache especially), which means less fragmentation for the root partition
- having a noexec flag for /home so no potentially dangerous software will run from there (and why would you need to run software from /home?)
- my /var folder takes up 102 MB, 9.706 files in 4.846 folders. Is there a filesystem that will deal well with many small files ? ReiserFS maybe ?
So how would you split (gigabyte-wise) a 10 GB partition into /, /home and /var ? And would you ? I've been told from the IRC channel that it makes zero sense. At least not for desktop use.
PS: I'm also switching from i686 to x86_64, so please take that into account as well. For instance I noticed that 64 bit software usually takes up more space than 32 bit.

Wouldn't a one pixel oval be just a dot? Or are you meaning to say you want to draw an oval that has a one pixel wide edge?
If the latter, then select the oval marque tool, draw your oval, then stroke (edit> stroke) the selection with a one pixel stroke, using the color off your choice.
To draw a simple line:
• use the Pencil tool, set the thickness in the options bar. Click where you want the line to start, then move your mouse to where you want the line to stop and shift-click to draw a straight line to that end point. PS will connect the two points with the line. Or you can free hand the line - just click and draw.
• use the Path tool to draw your line, then pick your brush tool, set the pixel size, pick the color you want as your forground color, then in the Paths pallete drop down, select stroke path and pick the brush tool.
• use the Line tool, inside the shape tool box. Lots of options, just need to experiement.

How would you read in each line of data and display them to message box?

How would you read in each line of data from the _.txt file_ and display the whole data using an information-type message box?
I know how to display each line of the .txt file data, but I do not know how to display the whole thing.
Here is how I did to display each line of data using the message box:
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;          // Needed for the JOptionPane class
import java.io.*;                         // Needed for file classes
public class problem3
     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException
          String filename;          // Needed to read the file
          String categories;          // Needed to read the categories
          // Get the filename.
          filename = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the filname.");
          // Open the file.
          FileReader freader = new FileReader(filename);
          BufferedReader inputFile = new BufferedReader(freader);
          // Read the categories from the file.
          categories = inputFile.readLine();
          // If a category was read, display it and
          // read the remainig categories.
          while(categories != null)
               // Display the last category read.
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(categories);
               // Read the next category.
               categories = inputFile.readLine();
          // Close the file.
          inputFile.close();
}I think I need to change here:
// If a category was read, display it and
          // read the remainig categories.
          while(categories != null)
               // Display the last category read.
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(categories);
               // Read the next category.
               categories = inputFile.readLine();
          }but I don't know how to.
Could you please help me?

First thing's first though: You do recognize that "read a bunch of lines and display them in a textbox" has a few distinct and completely independent parts, right?I'm sorry. I'm not good at English, so I do not understand what you said...
What I was trying to say is "How to display the whole lines of .txt file in single dialog box."We know that.
Do you understand that any problem can be broken down into smaller pieces?
Do you understand that your problem has the following pieces?
1. Read lines from the file.
2. Put the lines together into one String.
3. Put the String into the message box.
and maybe
4. Make sure the message box contents are split into lines exactly as the file was.
(You didn't make it clear if that last one is a requirement.)
Do you understand that 1-4 are completely independent problems and can be solved separately from each other?
Do you understand that you have stated that you already know how to do 1 and 3?
Therefore, you are NOT asking "How to display the whole lines of .txt file in single dialog box." Rather, you ARE asking either #2 or #4 or both.
If you say once more "display all the lines of the file in one dialog box," then it is clear that we are unable to communicate with you and we cannot help you.

How would you use Aperture 3 Labels & Flags in your workflow?

Now that A3 has the ability to use Labels & Flags, I'm trying to incorporate their use into my workflow but am struggling to find the most effective way.
I've used the star rating for selections & refining the selections. In A2 I used keywords on images to indicate actions on the images, however I never thought this was an elegant solution because unless I forget to remove them they stay with the images as I export them. Fundamentally though I think of Keywords as attributes of the image, so using keywords to describe actions was always strange.
One thing I liked with this workflow though was I could place multiple "actions" on an image since there can be any number of keywords. In A3 you can only assign one labe at a time. So this made me think of how I'd use Labels.
So thus my question: how would you incorporate labels & flags into your existing workflows consisting of star ratings & keywords?

I've wanted flags for a long time just to be able to mark where I left off on a project. My inelegant solution has been to give a terrible picture 5 stars. Other uses are to quickly get back to certain images.
I don't yet know how exactly I'll use labels or what other uses I'll have for flags, but I'm happy to have the added versatility. Between flags and labels, I have 8 new ways to mark and filter images. (10 if you count no flag and no label.) Sure one can do a lot with stars, stacks and keywords, but now one can do more.

How would you go about limiting file upload

I don't need source code, just want to know if it's possible or how to go about limiting how many files a user can upload.
So far
I can limit what types of files get uploaded.
I can limit how big those files can be.
Is it possible, or how would you go about limiting how many files get sent?
- When the user does a browse they can select multiple files.

This is the best that I can come up with.
Ripped from adobe cookbooks
var fileList:Array = fileReferenceList.fileList;
if( fileList.length > 4 )
 Alert.show("Too many files" , "Please try again with 4 or less files");
else
 for (var i:Number=0; i<fileList.length; i++)
 var file:FileReference = FileReference(fileList[i]);
 arrayCollection.addItem({name:file.name, size:file.size, object:file})

How would you determine the total ram used by applets?

hi guys;
I have 2 applets.
One applet runs in a browswer. - in the microsoft jvm.
Another applet on another browser (or another page) - in the sun plugin.
How would you guys determine the total RAM (not just heap memory) used by these applets.
my strategy would be to open up the browser. and look at the memory next to that internet explorer process. Then I would open up another browser with applet and see total memory taken. Then I would subtract to determine the difference.
Does this sound correct?
Each applet has multiple jar files associated with it.
Stev

What you really should do is test your applet on a bunch of machines, like a 32 meg ram win 98, 64 meg ram win NT, and a 256 meg ram win 2000, and then give them a performance report under the different configurations. That's really what they're after (probably)
