Invisible hands for a clock holding the tick mark as a png

I am making the hands of a clock with tick marks held in a particular spot with an invisible bounding box. When I export as a png the bounding box disappears and all I have is the tick mark. Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated! Maybe a boundindg box isn't the correct description? I have made the hand using the rectangle shape with no fill and no line. The tick mark is contained within this space. But somehow when it is exported using png the invisible containment disappears. I need that to hold my tick mark in place as the hand goes around the clock.
Marci

The image fits inside the rectangle at a precise point. But when I export it, all I get is the tick mark which looks like this without the rectangle
This is what happened the first one when I exported it as a png. The second I matched the artboard and tried to save it as a eps. I still get the same result. I was able to do this originally but it had a white fill. It needed to be transparent. But when I make it transparent the box disappears when it is exported.

Graph control right-hand Y-axis tick marks look like negative signs

Hi,
The graph control right-hand Y-axis tick marks just to the left of the numeric values that make up the scale look like negative signs. It gets confusing for the user of the software.
The left Y-axis is OK because the little tick marks are to the right of the number.
Any ideas on how to improve this situation?
Thanks,

Perry,
First of all thanks for looking at this.
The tick-marks controlled by the "Mark Origin" option are not the tick marks that are causing the problem.
The Mark Origin ticks are in the body of the graph along the x=0 and y=0 lines. They only show up if those lines are visible such as if you have a graph with an x axis range of -100 to +100 and a y axis range of the same.
The ticks I'm referring to are just to the left of the numeric values that label the right axis.
Below is a screenshot to illustrate:
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Kirk

How to calculate the rotation degree of tick marks

Hello Again,
Thanks to so much help that I received here, I've been able to move right along in learning how to perform my job digitally instead of with an old camera.
In my last discussion, I learned out to make the tick marks using copies and rotation. My question now is, how is the rotation calculated so A) I get the correct placement of the tick marks, especially the small ones as there are so many and B) how do I calculate the rotation degree so that I have the proper amount of space at the bottom of the guage/dial?
Here is an image to help show what I'm asking:
I know how to get the large tick marks and the small tick marks, if I were placing them evenly around the entire circle, I would know how to do that also - but since I'm placing them around only a portion of the circle (although still evenly) I'm lost. I can only figure out the space by hit and miss calculations and that is taking much too long. I would also need to know how much to rotate the entire thing by in order to get the open space at the bottom as shown.
thanks for your help!

You need to use transform effects and you can get this in about 10 or so minutes.
first you need to set up the objects.
the thick lines I used effect>distort and transform>transform 20 copies angle 14
thi ones 100 copies angle 2,8

Script for overriding category axis tick marks in graphs?

Hello!
We are introducing a new graph design, but has a problem with not being able to override the tick marks in the category axis in Illustrator CS5.
A typical graph (line layout) can have 250 observations, and since we have the tick marks on full width, the graph gets "crowded" with black lines.
In the value axis there is possibilites for overriding the values, but not on the category axis.
Is there any way to script so that the tick marks in the category axis can be reduced/overrided to e.g. 1 in 20?
Please help!

Script has NO access to live graph data… It can only break them… then fish in the group for bits…

Application Module holds the DB Connection till we commit?

Hi All,
Jdeveloper :- 11.1.1.5
As in my business scenario ,i have an EO and VO and there AM.In VO we have a bind variable which is nothing but the task Id.On Page Load i pass the bind variable to the VO and fetch the data onto the page.As user update the data onto the page and then when he press submit, we actually calls the stored procedure which finally updates the data in the table for the same task id.
But the problem is , when i am fetching the data from the table using AM,it actually creates a connection with the database but it doesn't release the connection.
Is there any way where we fetch the data from the table using AM and then close or release the connection so that while submitting tha data to the table using stored proc will not get the locked row.
Please suggest!!!

Have you set up the application module to use optimistic locking?
This mode should hole the lock only during update of the row.
I don't think the problem is tied to the connection pool. An application module holds on to the jdbc connection until it gets released from the application module pool. This only happens is a application module is not used for a configurable idle time (one of the pooling parameters). If you app releases an application module the module is put back into the application module pool for resuse and holds the connection.

Hardcoding a 'tick mark' in the script.

I have inserted a sapsymbol('tick' mark) in script by following these steps:
se71->
Window-> text editor->Insert->characters->sap symbols. It automatically takes up the value as 640, but this is getting displayed as' # ' in the layout instead of 'tick' mark.
Do we have to specially handle the sap symbols?
Could someone help me with this.
Thanks in Advance,
Shruti

Hi ,
Thanks for the response.Jus wanted to re-confirm the things.
The 'tick mark' is already available in the list of SAPSymbols in text editor of se71 tcode. I think there is some particular way to use these SAPsymbols. As we can find the id for the tick mark as '00709' in the standard program for symbols .i.e.
'RSTXSYMB'. It gives a list of all the SAPSymbols. I tried using the same id, but still no change in display of that symbol. Could you kindly confirm if there is really no way to use these symbols. I tried almost all possibilities.
Thanks again for ur precious time n input.

How to create tick marks within an arched area

I need to recreate this dial and I've learned how to create evenly spaced tick marks within a circle, but this is an ellipse. Here, I attempted to draw two ellipse then used the scissors to cut them to size. Then I used the line tool and drew each of the tick marks. Then I adjusted the weights of each tick. This is not a good method because the end ticks are not meeting the ends of the ellipse perfectly, leaving a tiny bit of tick mark outside the ellipse. There must be a better way to do this. Here is what I ended up with:
But this is what I need to create:
(I only need to create the arched part with tick marks of this dial)
Any help is appreciated, but please note that I am familiar with only the very basics of illustrator, I simply don't do this type of work often enough to completely understand the software.
Thanks!!!!

Jber,
And this is an attempt to give a (hopefully sufficiently) more complete description of the ellipse way, as an amendment of post #4 (overdoing silly things like this makes it difficult to remember to mention all the crucial steps that seem to hide somewhere in the fingers):
One way that results in constant thickness tick marks might be to (using Stroke>Round Cap/Join or Stroke>Projecting Cap/Miter Join or Stroke>Butt Cap and Miter Join depending on the desired end shape and length, see below, with the layer expanded in the Layers palette, and Smart Guides are your friends, telling you when you when you are in the right spots):
If you wish to have the tick marks follow an ellipse and at the same time have constant widths (two different widths), you may (see below):
0) Lock the image of the dial (shown as a grey area below), you may place it at X = 0 to facilitate symmetric building;
1) Create the thickest tick mark and move a copy to the right, then create a one step blend (Object>Blend Options>Specified Steps = 1, then Object>Blend>Make);
2) Create the thinnest tick mark and move a copy to the right, then create a five steps blend (Object>Blend Options>Specified Steps = 5, then Object>Blend>Make);
3) Either of two ways (in both cases make sure to make it as symmetrical as possible):
3a) Create the midway ellipse, adjusting the top of it to be midway between the two arcs (this is the first way I thought of and the way shown below), or
3b) Create two ellipses corresponding to the two arcs, then create a one step blend and Object>Blend>Expand to get the midway ellipse and delete the other two;
4) Drag horizontally with the Line Tool (hold Shift) to make a path between the two spots where the midway ellipse crosses the ends of the dial image (Smarts Guides say intersect), or just create a horizontal path and place it so it crosses the ellipse in the right spots (you can see the symmetry here);
5) With the horizontal path still selected Object>Path>Divide Objects Below;
6) Delete the lower superfluous part of the ellipse, then with the Direct Seletion Tool click the horizontal segment and delete it (only click delete once);
7) Select the remaining midway ellipse part and Object>Path>Offset Path, using half the height of the dial image (at the middle), you may retry until you have it right, this will recreate the top and bottom of the dial and also make ends;
8) Select the midway ellipse part and Object>Path>Add Anchor Points a few times (see below), and copy the midway ellipse, now you have two on top of each other, one for each of the blends;
9) Select one of the midway ellipses along with the thin blend from 2) (hold Shift to have them both selected) and Object>Blend>Replace Spine, this will make that ellipse part disappear;
10) Select the other midway ellipse and the thick blend from 1) (hold Shift to have them both selected) and Object>Blend>Replace Spine;
11) Hide/Delete the image dial.
Now you should have the whole dial with both sets of tick marks on top of the elliptic arch set. In 9) and 10) you may select on the Artboard or through the Layers palette (you can see what you are selecting in both places), and the order (and stacking order) in 1)/2) and 9)/10) can be changed.
If you wish to move/extend the thick tick marks upwards or both up and down, you may:
12) Select the thick ticks blend and Object>Blend>Expand, and then Select each of the thick tick marks and tick the appropriate Reference Point in the Transform palette (if you want to extend upwards use the bottom ones (Right for left, Center for centre, Left for right), if you want to extend both up and down use the Center one), then multiply the H value by the desired amount and click Ctrl/Cmd+Enter to make them a bit longer up/outwardly.
The Object>Path>Add Anchor Points in 8) is to get a even distribution of the thin tick mark blend (not necessary for the thick tick marks blend because it only has one step).

Putting tick mark into check box in smartform

Tick marks?

Can someone explain me the tick marks? So I have all kinds of playlists, and I have never manually used the tick marks, still some songs are without them? Why? Does it have anything to do with the fact that iPod got full and iTunes created this automatic playlist that fits in. BTW, what are the criteria in creating that? First songs in order they happen to be in the library view?

Tick/check marks are used for 2 main things
1) If the ipod is set to "Auto Update" you can check songs you want on the ipod and songs you don't want on it can be unchecked. If you add a song to ipod and later want it off, just uncheck it in iTUnes and next time you update the ipod, its removed
All you have to do is goto edit>Preferences>ipod and check "Only update checked songs"
2) THere also used to tell iTUnes what to play and what not to play. For example lets say you have a playlist with 4 songs. SOng 1, 2 and 4 are checked, song 3 is unchecked. You start playing song 1, when its done it starts playing song 2. Now when song 2 is done playing it will skip song 3 and start playing song 4

Using CSS to change line chart tick mark font

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere, but I can't find any reference to help with this.
I have create a dark-background theme for my CSS and have run into a bit of a blind spot with the CSS. My chart has a dark background, and I can find no way to change the color of the font on the tick marks. I have resorted for now to setting the individual axis objects setTickLabelFill for now, but it would be nice to be able to set this in CSS.
With this, I can change the font size of the axis labels and tick marks, but the font name and color are ignored for the tick marks:
.axis {
-fx-font: 14px "Palatino Linotype";
-fx-text-fill: white;
Thank you for your help.
- Jim
Edited by: 871682 on Aug 2, 2011 11:47 AM

That did work in 1.3, and I hoped it made it into 2.0, but that setting didn't help.
Setting the -fx-text-fill in -axix-tick-mark .label doesn't work either, or any variation I tried.

Tick mark shows as '4' in Windows XP Embedded

Hi,
The tick mark in checkbox (xfa form) displays as "4" in Windows XP Embedded. Kindly help

Hi,
you sample looks fine and I don't have any problem on my system.
All boxes show the mark as expected.
I found a description in the XFA specs about the marks, which let me think that it is your Reader that causes the effect.
These descriptions are deliberately vague to allow latitude for the application. For example when
presenting on glass the filled circle might appear as a glowing light whereas when presenting on paper it
would probably appear as a flat black circle taken from a font.

Tick mark and labels

Hello -
I've been doing a lot of reading and not finding some answers. Maybe someone here knows...
Does anyone know how to:
1. On a dual Y line graph, have the tick mark labels be words instead of numbers.
2. Instead of the horizonal line on the graph being solid and going all the way across the graph, just have a small tick mark right on the Y axis?
Many thanks.

David,
This is currently not an option within xMII. The only workaround would be to butt a html table cell up to it and have the orientation go vertical for the words.
Regards,
Erik

In options, checking a new tab instead of the default a new window. After shutdown & restart FireFox returns to the w/no check mark. Can I save the check mark?

After a computer restart, Firefox always defaults in Options, Tabs, 'Open new windows on a new Tab' unchecked. After checking the box Firefox will then open new windows in a tab instead of a new window, However after a shutdown of the computer the check mark is gone and must be rechecked. Is there a way for Firefox to remember the check mark when the program is restarted?

hello gearjam, first of all it appears, that you're using an outdated version of firefox with various known security vulnerabilities - please [[Update Firefox to the latest version]] as soon as possible to stay safe while you browse the web.
regarding the problem you're observing, please make sure that no extension in firefox > addons > extension with the functionality to change tab settings is interfering here - or if this is not the case, go through the steps described in [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
