How  would you similulate the apperance of a lightbox in InDesign CS5?

I'm creating web page design comps in InDesign and I don't have access to Photoshop, Illustrator, or Fireworks.  Is it possible to simulate a lightbox with InDesign all by itself?

Simulate? Sure it can be done. Isn't web page comping the art of designing w/o the hassle of having to make it work as well?
Of course you cannot make it work, but then again that's not what you are supposed to do when designing a web page.

  • How would you capture the stdout of Runtime.getRuntime().exec())?

    How would you capture the stdout of Runtime.getRuntime().exec())?
    Say you wanted to execute PKZIP25.exe from java using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(). How would you capture the output of PKZIP25 (the console IO) in a file so you could check the results?
    Thanks

    Thanks.
    Could you explain a little more?
    The program I am calling seems to be executing, as far as Java is concerned, but nothing happens. I imagine I have made mistakes in calling it but can't see the output to the console.
    Should I use Runtime.getRuntime().exec() or Runtime.exec() for something like this?
    I appreciate the help!

  • How would you change the state to the base state?

    How would you change the state to the base state? Its not
    letting me do something like:
    currentState='<Base State>';

    Sorry about the vagueness of that last reply :)
    What I have done now in my code is this:
    viewstack1.addChildAt(loginCanvas,0);
    toggle.selectedIndex = 0;
    However nothing happens at this line of code:
    toggle.selectedIndex = 0;
    but this works:
    toggle.selectedIndex = 1; or ...
    toggle.selectedIndex = 2;
    toggle.selectedIndex = 3;
    toggle.selectedIndex = 4;
    toggle.selectedIndex = 5;
    toggle.selectedIndex = 6;
    The strange thing is that if I have a button on the screen:
    <mx:Button x="10" y="3" label="Button"
    click="toggle.selectedIndex =0"/>
    and the user clicks it the toggle.selectedIndex = 0; works.
    I'm stumped, any ideas?

  • How would you change the default template?

    How would you change the default template?

    Hi,
    what do you mean by changing the default template? Do you want to change the standard BEx web template for all web applications? This can and should be done with transaction SPRO, there you can change it to your own (maybe by copying the standard template and fitting it to your needs).
    With regards,

  • How would you optimize the dimensions?

    How would you optimize the dimensions?

    HI Vsu,
    The basic way of optmizing the Dimensions would be to have similar kind of objects into that dimensions. For example having the Customer related infoobjects into the customer dimension will obviously help in optimized data retrieval performance.
    There could be some scenarious where U can optimize the Dimension by dividing the Dimension Data into Line Item Dimension. By this way U would divide the load of data onto the Dimension and the cube, hence again optimizing the performance.
    Hope this helps U. U can be graceful by assinging points.

  • 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)

  • How would you find the pitch period of a sound signal?

    Hi
    I have a few questions and i would like if somebody could help me even with the smallest comment on this.
    How would someone be successfully estimate the pitch period (fundamental frequency) of a 5 second sound file?How would you successfully distinguish the voiced from the unvoiced parts and how would you make sure you dont mix voiced/unvoiced sections? Finally how can you find the exact points where the pitch is at its peak throughout the signal?
    Any help/comment/suggesion would be much appreciated

    Hello Madgreek,
    After some thought I think I may have come up with an algorithm for what we have discussed. Basically, you are interested in knowing the time intervals over which you can observe any given frequency in your signal. As you had suggested, you can examine small windows of your signal and perform FFTs on each of the small windows to determine what frequency content is contained in that window. By examining all of the windows, you will see when particular frequencies are prevalent in the original signal. You'd want to use the smallest allowable window to give you the most resolution, but one that is large enough to cover an entire period of the lowest frequency (so that you don't miss this frequency).
    I have attached an example program that performs this operation. The example performs this analysis on an array that represents audio data. I am basically performing multiple FFTs (for each window) and stacking these FFTs in time to form a 3D plot. By examining the 3D plot, I can then see when in time my frequencies of interest are at their peaks. Rather than graphing these plots, you may work out a different algorithm for programmatically determining and logging these peaks and times. I hope this is what you were looking for!

  • How would you solve the following Synch Async scenario?

    Hi,
    I have the following use case and would like to know thoughts from the community on how to solve it -
    There is a web based portal sending a create order request to ESB and the ESB does some message processing and passes it to a CRM to complete the order processing and generate a order id to be sent back to the portal user.
    Non Functional Requirements -
    1) Reliability
    2) Performance in terms of response time to the user.
    Issues -
    1) The web service exposed by CRM takes a long time to process the request and it is not acceptable that the Portal end user waits for that long to get the Order ID back..
    2) If we make a SOAP/HTTP call from Portal --> ESB and then another SOAP/HTTP call from ESB ---> CRM then the reliability is compromised.
    Solution -
    The solution that we are proposing is as follows -
    1) Make a SOAP/HTTP call from Portal to ESB and then put the message in a JMS Queue which will persist it. This will provide reliability and QOS.
    2) Generate a random unique number (which will act as the order id for the user) inside the ESB and send it back to the user immediately after persisting the message in the queue. Also persist this interim order id in a database.
    3) Pick the message from the queue using MDB or Proxy service (specific to Oracle Service Bus because that is what we have as an ESB) and send the message to CRM.
    4) CRM takes its own time to process the request from MDB and sends the response (actual OrderID in CRM) which is then persisted corresponding to the row in step#2. Thus for future search by the user we can use this mapping to get the actual order details from CRM.
    I do not see this as a scenario which is unique or unusual, where an Asynch request needs to made to look as synch to the user. But the solution we are proposing seems to be crude to me and with loopholes (like how to handle scenarios where CRM returns an error etc.) which would require lot of effort to be fixed.
    Questions -
    1) What is your opinion about the solution and suggestions about a better/cleaner way to implement it?
    2) Is there any standard approach to solve such kind of issue without creating so much of complexity (where we have to write code to keep the mapping and take care of all other issues)?
    3) Is there any pattern that can help solve this problem?
    4) Have you ever faced this issue and how did you solve it?
    Regards
    Ananya

    Hi Ananya,
    If its not required to give Order ID to Portal user immediately, you can update Portal with Order ID in async manner.
    What I propose is,
    1. Let Portal call in Async manner, thread is released. (JMS can be used as well to improve reliability.)
    2. CRM takes the request and responds with order id or an error, calls webservice of AIA.
    3. AIA's WS then update Portal with Order ID or error in proper format.
    Thanks,
    Manish

  • My browser is Firefox, my email program is Yahoo, when composing a new email, how would you increase the font of size of the characters?

    I am using Firefox browser, My email program is Yahoo.com and my Home page is Yahoo. My OS is Windows XP. When composing an email I sometimes want to increase the print size of the text in the email. I do not know the procedure to do this. Is sometimes prints very small.
    there some way that I can correct this problem?
    Thank you,
    Jeanette Gonzales

    Hi [email protected],
    If you are talking about the font only in your email, then that's a yahoo issue:
    http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/ymail/basics/basics-21.html
    If you think EVERYTHING is too small, you can try using [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-use-zoom Zoom]. This will increase/decrease the size of everything on the page. You can try hitting ''CTRL and +'' a few times to try it out. ''CTRL and 0'' will return it to normal size.
    If that isn't what you are looking for you, you might want to look into some of the [[Accessibility]] options. There is lots of good information in that article.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How would you make the call now screen for an infomercial?

  • How would you limit the number of Web App items a user can enter.

    I am creating a web app where people can list objects/items. I want to offer plans that will enable users to enter up to a predefined number of entries and no more than what they paid to enter. They can then come back as often as they wish during their subscription period to update, create, and/or delete entries ( but again, never more than what thier subscription entitles them ).
    Fore sake of illustration.
    User Plan 1 entitles user to enter 1 web app item,
    while
    User Plan 2 entitle user to enter 3 web app items, and
    User Plan 3 entitles user to enter 5 web app items.
    These are annual plans.
    Any ideas?

  • After importing from iPhoto, how would you eliminate the photos?

    I have installed Aperture adn like it quite a bit. I imported from iPhoto (which copies over the pictures...not move.)
    I have backed up the photos in iPhoto to an external hard drive in case Aperture blows up on me and I need to go back to iPhoto. But now that I have done that, what is the suggested way to get all those pictures out of iPhoto? so I can get back that disk space.

    Maybe I'm missing something, but what's wrong with simply deleting and then emptying the trash?
