Is there a parametric lookup feature to identify components

Since there are many part numbers that do not exist in the database, there needs to be a parametric part search function to identify suitable substitute components for simulations. Is this function available? If not, can such data be extracted from the database models? The electrical specifications are key, not post-design physical/footprint data. Identifying a range of part numbers can decrease design/simulation time.

Thank You Tien
I suspected that would be the answer. I feel this is a much needed addition to greatly enhance useability. Of course, semiconductors are the focus. As an instructor, the lab manuals often use components not in the db. I typically use a distributor site to find components with similar specs, then back to Msim to see if it exists. If it does, the simulation may not be what is expected and the cycle repeats to find another similar part. This can take a long time.
For the actual component to be purchased, it ultimately comes down to price since students will have to pay for the parts. But for the simulation, a similar part is usually good enough IF one can be identified. That is the crux of the problem It would be very nice if one could take the opposite approach whereby the useable Msim parts are identified parametrically first, then simulations run, then go to the distributors for the most cost effective solution.
In our preliminary circuit design approach, general part values are spec'd, distributor sources are compared for suitable components, possible part numbers are identified, then the lookup cycle between Msim/vendors begins. I would note here that it is preferred that your proven models be the basis for simulations rather than creating new models for parts not in the db and that prototype/test resolves the final part values.....
I have to believe that NI has a db with commercial Msim part numbers being used along with their key electrical specs already, yes? And if not, your tight integration with certain vendors should permit an exchange of information (a text dump). This may be overload for the function window. A db/spreadsheet view similar to the vendors seems a better fit for such information display. I will keep my fingers crossed for a future version of Msim.

Query on OBIEE 11g Lookup feature

Hi All,
I am trying to create a dense lookup.
Fact table has data at 4 levels. [Grain]
Plant,OU,BU,BS
Plant will have data for ou, bu and bs
OU will have data for BU and BS and like wise for BU and BS. All higher level hierarchies are populated.
All these are id fields.
I want to populate description for these from org master.
I would not be able to join org master as plant id is the lowest level there and that is the only way I could join. Else, I would have to create 4 dimensions, if that is an option. Instead I thought of going for lookup feature in 11g. Sparse as I wanted to populate a base value as 'desc not found' in case desc unavailable.
In answers, I created prompt for these 4 hierarchies and added these descriptions to the report. When I filter it with valid values it works. When I choose, desc not found it brings me all the valid records with 'desc not found'.
For example, for customer 123, there are 2 entries in fact.
Fact:
Customer plant ou bu bs grain
123 x y z a plant
1234 x1 y1 z1 b plant
Dim:
Plant_id plant_desc ou_id ou_desc bu_id bu_desc bs_id bs_desc
x alpha y beta z gamma a theeta
x1 alpha1 y1 null z1 gamma1 a1 theeta1
When I run the report, I expect to get 'ou desc not found' for x1 level for ou desc and it works as expected. It returns all valid records along with 'ou desc not found'.
But, as I am using this lookup fields in prompts too, it gets populated with 'ou desc not found' for OU prompt, 'plant desc not found' for plant prompt and so on.
When I choose this, i expect to get only the record for customer 1234 which points to OU y1. But it populates the report like this,
With no prompts:
Customer ou_desc
123 beta
1234 ou desc not found
With prompt on 123 as beta:
Customer ou_desc
123 beta
With prompt as 'ou desc not found'
Customer ou_desc
123 ou desc not found
1234 ou desc not found
Could you please help me understand this behaviour.
Also, why is 'OU Desc not found' getting populated in prompt value when there the dimension has all descriptions for all ids.
Plant_id plant_desc ou_id ou_desc bu_id bu_desc bs_id bs_desc
x alpha y beta z gamma a theeta
x1 alpha1 y1 beta1l z1 gamma1 a1 theeta1

I have ran the diagnostics test on iTunes and iPod. The diagnostic says there is an iPod, it is identified with the correct name, but it says there is no sync ability. What can I do? iPod nano 3rd generation. All updates are current.

It had not been used for awhile and most of the songs that were on there were gone when I turned it on. I was trying to sync to update the library.

Weeks, months, years? It's possible your battery is dying. Take the iPod Nano to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

It appears that iPad does not retain information from prior years - appointments, etc. Valuable info is lost unless there is an archive feature that I cannot find.

It appears that the iPad, and also the iPhone do not retain information for prior years, such as appointments, etc. Unless there is an archive feature, which I have not found, valuable information is lost. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you so much to JimHdk. A really simple solution, but I guess I am not totally familiar with my iPad. I have a high learning curve with my iPhone also.

Producing musicals, I wish there was a "chunk" feature like in DP

Hi guys, especially iSchwartz, Jim, Rohan...
This is another day I wished there was a chunk feature like in DP.
Maybe you have a few tips for me.
I'm doing a recording of another musical: lots of songs, lots of dialogues, lots of special effects.
It would be so easy if I just could put the whole Arrangement together, including all songs, and if it would be possible to mix the songs in the "master arrangement" which includes all the dialogues and other fancy things.
They way I do it, is to mix each song seperately and import the bounced file to the master arrangement. And, as you know, they never fit together. The story acts in different locations and yeah, I choosed the wrong reverb again...the sound does not fit into the location where it takes place. So I have to remix and import the remixed file and hope that its ok now.
Its so long-winded.
I tried DP once but I didn't like the interface and I don't have the time to switch. Is there a trick maybe, that I should know?
I should mention, many of the songs are recorded to click.
I appreciate your feedback,
Eddie

Hello guys,
thanks for your feedback.
gliderproarc: toucktracks do not work for my purposes. They do playback samples, not arrangements.
Eriksimon: the arrangements contain audio and midi, but I bounced all the midi to audio files within the arrangements.
ashermusic: Do you know more about how that feature works in DP. Especially when using a UAD or powercore, will the plug-ins used in the "master arrangement" be occupied or are the dsps free for use within the "chunk"-arrangements?
I mean, when I have twenty arrangements and each contains six Powercore ore UAD plug-ins...how does DP handle the dsp resources.
LogicMaster: Unfortunately it seems to be very complicated to work with folders, if the songs contain different tempo, tempo changes and automation. You cannot easily move these folders around in the "master arrangement".
If you have any more thoughts about that, I appreciate your feedback,
thanks Eddie

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Is there a "play all" feature for videos on iphone4????

Hi Robin
Welcome to apple discussions. I use Toast (personal choice only) in this situation since it has a play all check box. But then you don't get the fancy menus.
Click Here
There is no such check box within iDvd for selecting play all but you can set up iDvd's preferences to address scene selection menus when a movie/s is added. And here's how you do that:
A second option might involve adding the 8 separate movies to the slideshow feature within iDvd for continuous play. And yes you can add photos as well as movies to idvd's slideshow feature with a number of added benefits which I won't go into here. But if you want more info on this procedure just look at a few of Old Toad's prior posts / replies on this iDvd forum.

Hi David,
The newer versions of the Security guide do show this caveat/restriction
Note The VPN menu and its options are not available in the U.S. export unrestricted version of Cisco Unified Communications Manager. We see from above that you have installed the unrestricted version so this is why you are hitting this;

We each have our own device, a laptop and an iPad. when sending imessages recipients cannot tell which of us sent it other than looking at the content. Is there any way to add an identifier to make it clear who is sending the message?

We each have our own device, a laptop and an iPad. when sending imessages recipients cannot tell which of us sent it other than looking at the content. Is there any way to add an identifier to make it clear who is sending the message? I know we can say 'this is mom or this is dad" but when an email is sent it identifies the device that sent it so why not imessages too?

Stop using the same apple id on all your devices. Each person should have their own. You can still share apps via home sharing.

I currently have Imessage turned off on my phone since there is no blocking feature on the Iphone 4. If I change my phone number and turn on Imessage, how do I make sure I won't get Messages from person I have blocked?

I have the Iphone 4 but before this I had a different phone and had blocked someone from contacting me via calls/texts. Unbeknownst to me, when I got the Iphone 4, that I cannot block Imessages. I have turned off Imessage for the time being but I'm seriously considering changing my phone number. If I change the number with my carrier and turn Imessage back on, what do I have to do to ensure that any previous messages don't come through and any future messages cannot be sent?

Is there a "Large Fonts" feature in OS X? I can't seem to find one.

Hi all,
My mother just got an iMac 27". It is running at 2560x1440. However, at this resolution even on the big monitor the menu bars are quite as is the font on the menus. In windows which she used to use and which I use, there's a "Large Fonts" feature which increases the size of the font on menu bars, and the button on the window manager.
However, I can't seem to find this feature on the mac. I increased the cursor size. I increased the default size of window content in safari etc. And can incr. the size of the dock. But no where can I find a "large font" feature. I can drop the resolution, but this is obviously a bad solution as this just makes everything fuzzy and ugly. Is there any way to preserve resolution and incr. menubar sizes/font sizes? The zoom feature is does not have acceptable behavior to conveniently incr. menu size (most of the time it zooms the menus right out of the frame, and the PIP mode is also poor)
Any ideas? If there is no OS X built in solution, Is there a 3rd part solution to this?

Well...it's fuzzy in the way that when you run an LCD on a non-native resolution (e.g. 1600x900 on 2560x1440) the text isn't sharp anymore. It's very notably ugly and pixelated. Windows would simply enlarge the font size but keep the native resolution which made the text nice looking even at higher resolution.
Hrm. This is very frustrating. Kinda wished I had discovered this before the return period. Seems like OS X has done a very half hearted accessibility. Just decreasing the resolution to increase the size seems kinda lazy. Both Windows, and even many linux window managers have features to adjust this for people with visual impairment without having to sacrifice the resolution. I suppose I could always install Windows on the Mac :-/
Is there not even a 3rd party solution or 3rd party mac window manager that might do this that anyone is aware of? My search turned up empty...
Much appreciated.

Is there Sequential image Matte feature??

I'm currently working on animations needs some good composite tequnique.
I figured out how to use "Image Mask" under Effect-Video Filters and Matt section.
Is there any other feature that will do exactly same thing as "image mask" however, will also accept sequetial animation as "image" mask?
I'm not sure that make any sense...
after you applied "image mask" you have the place holder to insert image (the alpha channel area.. i think).
I can insert my sequential animation (black and white animation, black as being masked out) into the image place holder, however, it will only use first frame of the sequential animation as matte.
I want the matte also move along with actual animation with the black area is masked out.
I'm sorry for the very confusing language...
I hope it make some sort of sense to you, and someone can tell me if there is such a thing/plug in.
thank you....

put your background video on V1
put your animated mask on V2
put your foreground video on V3
select your forreground video track and chose Modify>Composite Mode>Travel Matte - Luma

Good catch. However, there is a "Save to Pocket" option for larger transfers. Personally, I use Dropbox for larger documents.

Is there an Image Ready feature in Photoshop CS4?

Is ImageReady no longer a part of the tool panel?

Is there an easy way to find all of those features?
Different question--I want to splice.
And I read that Photoshop is not the best software for us to do that work
in because it dumps all kinds of unnecessary code
into the file and thereby increases its page loading time?
What say you?
And are you aware of a quick, cheap and easy solution if you agree?
Thanks,

Are there any good basic/feature phones that have been discontinued?

My brother currently has the Samsung Intensity II and it's giving him a lot of problems. After troubleshooting with tech support it is best for him to replace the phone. The insurance deductible is $45 but the phone will likely be refurbished. I am seeking a non-smartphone for him that I can purchase via eBay or Craigslist. Because he is 16, he wants some type of smartphone. Preferably the iPhone or a low/mid-grade Android phone. I won't allow him to get a smartphone until he gets a job and pays for the phone and monthly data plan.
I am sort of disappointed in the selection of basic phones on the Verizon website - there are only 7 phones under $100. It seems backwards that there are 23 smartphones under $100. The conspiracy theorist in me would think this is a ploy to coax customers to move towards smartphones but I digress. I have been looking at the Samsung Brightside and the ZTE Adamant (discontinued - not offered on vzw.com) and they seem pretty cool and reasonably priced on eBay. Are there any other basic or feature phones that you would recommend [including discontinued and upcoming phones]?
I would rather not purchase a phone directly through Verizon so that it does not extend the contract or interfere with his upgrade date (to ensure that he will be able to afford the phone of his choice when he is ready).

Another vote for the Env3 - son and daughter both had them (18 and 21) and they were more than adequate phones and worked well for them. My son (now nearing 24) is still using his though he is eligible for an upgrade now - he likes it and sees no reason to change until it quits on him.
The Alias (original) was a good phone for my daughter before her Env3, and I really enjoyed my LG Voyager, touchscreen. None of the phones require a data plan, if you can find them.
