How would you select part of a letter/font and change the colour of it ??

for example i want to selct the the letter 'b' and just want to change the colour of the ascender' ( the top half of the b) how could i do this on INDESIGN
like this

Here are a few tips to get started:
(1) When you create outlines, hold down the Option/Alt key when you choose Type > Create Outlines. That will make a copy of the outlines which isn't anchored in the text frame. Move that copy away from the original frame.
(2) Select all the word with the Direct Selection tool and choose Object > Path > Release Compound Path. That will separate the letters from each other so you can work with them (it also fills in the counters (centers) of the letters).
(3) To create the effect on the "T," I selected the letter with the Direct Selection tool (selecting all the anchor points) and chose File > Copy, then chose Edit > Paste in Place to make a copy on top.
(4) I moved the top copy a little (Shift + Up Arrow) so I could select the bottom copy, then I locked the bottom copy (Object > Lock). I moved the top copy back (Shift + Down Arrow).
(5) With the Direct Selection tool, I selected the lower anchor points and deleted them. I filled the top anchor points with blue. Here is how far I got:

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?
Thank you.

What is not understood about your question is which part of "read a bunch of lines and display them in a textbox" do you not understand.
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 do you start a loop with an event and end the loop when u release ....

How do you start a loop with lets say an event of some sort, whether it be holding down a key or pressing the mouse click and then stopping the loop when you release that key or mouse button.?
double c = 1.8, i = 1, max = 90, exp = 0;

} //end whilethis is a snippet of my increasing increments. Its for an angle meter. I can't get it to stop, when the user clicks or does something... the program just gets stuck in an infinite loop. I am still new to java and i do not know how to fix this.

How can one edit a .gif file graphics background and change the fonts in Photoshop Elements 13?

I am trying to change the color and fonts of some of my web sites .gif files. Can I change the color to another hexadecimal color and change the fonts of the letters in Photoshop 13? I am using Windows 7 and heard that you could save the .gif file to another format, edit it, then change the file back to a .gif file. Is this true? If so, how do you do it? The file just has a solid color with the letters "Firm " on it. No animation.

You can edit a gif without changing the format, but once you save the file as a gif the text becomes part of the image, not text anymore, so you would need to clone or heal away the existing text and then create a new text layer and use save for web to create a new gif.
For access to the most editing tools, while the file is open in the editor go to image>mode and change it from index color to RGB. Saving as a gif will change it back to index mode.

Is it possible to change the tempo mid-song in GarageBand for iPad? And if so, how do you do it?

The tempo setting applies to the whole song, but only to the recorded midi instruments or loops. It's a bit of a kludge, but you could record different sections at different tempos, export each as an AIFF file, then glue them together in a new project.
The same goes for the key.

How do you make it print first page first and not the last page first?

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600. How do I make the first page print first and not the last page printing first?

Hi,
From the application used to print open the print dialog and click Oroperties or Preferences to access the Printing Preferences screen.
From the Layout tab set Page Order as Back to Front, then the first page will be printed first.

How Do I Duplicate a NOARCHIVELOG to another server and change the database

I have two servers each with a different copy of the same database.. we'll call the database POPEYE
server A has a STAGE version of POPEYE that is in NOARCHIVELOG mode
server B has the PRODUCTION version of POPEYE
I need to get the database on server A and copy it to run next to the existing database on server B.
since they have the same name, i need to change the name to POPEYESTAGE when I move it over.
both running Windows Server 2008. both running Oracle 10g.
I tried shutting down the database on server A, copying over the files with a new PFile and ran the CREATE CONTROLFILE script into the trace and took out all the junk, but I cannot connect to execute it.
I copied all the files over and when I try to commect as sysdba using sqlplus i get TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
i tried adding it to the listener and TNS names files, but it didnt work.
I'm trying RMAN now with some difficulty.
I am brand new to Oracle administration, this is my first administrative assignment. Please advise

I tried shutting down the database on server A, copying over the files with a new PFile and ran the CREATE CONTROLFILE script into the trace and took out all the junk, but I cannot connect to execute itWhile above is likely true, it is 100% devoid of any useful information or details.
In the future, ALWAYS use COPY & PASTE so we can see what you do & how Oracle actually responds.There's nothing to copy paste, I clicked with my mouse and dragged to copy the files.
I obtained a CREATE CONTROLFILE script the standard way -- ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE.
so here I stand with the script in hand. BUT, I cannot connect to the database to execute it, because I get the error I stated "TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified."
I copied all the files over and when I try to commect as sysdba using sqlplus i get TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.CURIOUS, since connecting to local DB does not require SQL*Net.I do not know what SQL*Net is. I did not use SQL*Net. I am in the DOS style commandline prompt using sqlplus.exe
i tried adding it to the listener and TNS names files, but it didnt work.My car didn't work.
Tell me how to make my car go .
Is COPY & PASTE broken for you?I used it above, but here it is again.. actually got a different error message this time:
ERROR:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
I'm trying RMAN now with some difficulty.I bet you did not bother to Read The Fine Manual.I took a course a week ago. I am reading the manual and following the instructions. Duplicating databases is not very clearly documented.
Plus it's a test database that the users turned into a production database, so it is in noarchivelog mode, so earlier I was not able to shutdown the database so RMAN could not back it up.
The situation I am dealing with with fairly obscure.

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());
}

Please put some lights on it how to change the colour of chart in the report.

Hi Krish,
I have followed the steps which you suggested, but I am unable to see the changes when I execute the web report.
I could able to see the colour changes to the bars in the chart in the preview (i.e when I select the series 1 and change the colour for series 1 under Area properties). Like that I have done for all the 5 series, then I have clicked on Complete button, saved the web template and executed it, and I could able to see the changes in the preview but not in the report after execution.
I have two charts in my case, one is Job function chart and the other is Job type chart. The Job function chart is displaying with different colours from the begining, but the job type chart is displays all the columns in RED colour.
Is there any setting I need to do after selecting the colour at the series level.
Please correctt me if I am worng in doing the procedure.
Please update me how to do it...It is usefull if you can come back to me ASAP .
Thanks,
Saravanan.

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

In Security, clicking on the "Saved Password" button displays your current saved password for each site. It only allows you to view and delete site passwords. It does not allow you to change a password. How would you do that?

If you enter a new password Firefox should offer to change the password.
*You may not need to delete the old password. Try "Refreshing" the page, entering the site again, you may need to let Firefox fill in the old password, then enter the new password, and Firefox should ask to save the new password. See:
**http://kb.mozillazine.org/Deleting_autocomplete_entries
*If you delete the old password, you may need to "Refresh" the site after deleting the old password.
If you want to delete the password that has been saved do the following:
#In the Tools menu select Options to open the options window
#Go to the Security panel
#Click the "Saved Passwords" button to open the passwords manager
#Select the site in the list, then click Remove
