Keyboard UI improvement request: A better Language Switch is really needed!

Hello Support,
In bilingual environment like I have in Russia, current Lang Switch is definitely the weakest part of on-screen keyboard, which is disastrous to otherwise excellent typing experience.
Please consider changing that so that one-step (NOT two-step) switching is possible, e.g.
(а)adding a dedicated key/indicator (as in WP8 / iPad / some Symbians, etc...)
(b)something like 'swipe space horizontally to switch the language' (as in Android)
I believe the issue is relevant not for Russia only.
Late 10.0.1 versions (like .4633 leaks or so) made situation even worse:
initially, the order of a languages in pop-up list was constant, which allowed to switch to a needed language rather fast
currently, the list order is constantly changing based on current language, which is VERY inconsistent.
Env: Z10 STL100-2, various 10.0 and 10.1 firmware, Russian locale, Beeline.
And, with keyboard devices like future Q10 etc, the best option is adding a dedicated switch button. Please consider that for future devices!
Hoping for better typing experience,
Cheers,
Alex

Change Language Switching Shortcut in Windows 8

Language switching shortcut is set to "Win + Space", but I want to disable win key through registry and remap the "Win + Space"
to "left Ctrl + Space" as Windows 7, which is not listed under
“Change langrage bar hot keys”. How
could I do this?

Hi,
This function is by design. For more information regarding keyboard shortcuts, please see:
Keyboard shortcuts
As maelwliams suggested above, we might change the switch input language hot keys to ctrl+shift. Click the Change language bar hot keys->on the advanced key settings tab->click Change key sequence, then select in the switch input language.
And if we want to change the default behavior of those hotkeys, then we may consider to seek help in some developer forums for a better help.

System language switch

I would to change time to time system language.... in my spare time I use to translate many apps into Spanish...
since now this was easy... I rum system in Spanish on my mac pro and English ( with an English keyboard) on my macbook 17 ... but now I need French too...
for apps, no problem, I go to system preferences and I switch to desired language..
I need to check system terms, because many translations are literal and sound unusual for they language.

To change the OS language you go to system prefs/language & text/languages, put the language you want at the top of the list, and the logout/login.
You can also set up additional user accounts in different languages and switch to them using fast user switching.
many thanks, I have always thought that this preference worked only at application level...

Language switching shortcut is really slow

Hi!
I'm using Cyrillic and Canadian English languages on my MacBook Pro. I set up a shortcut (Command+Space) to switch between them (Spotlight shortcut is disabled). The problem is that switching is painfully slow. When I hit the shortcut it takes about 10 seconds for the flag to change. The same happens when I move around application windows. I'm using separate input methods for all the documents. Taking into account the fact, that I do not really understand what is a "document" here, the language switching turns into total nightmare when I do not know which language I currently have in any particular window. I've been using OSX for about 4 years now and this is the only issue which drives me nuts royally. Does anyone else experience this and what is the solution?
Thanks!
A.
Mac OS X (10.4.10)

I've never heard of the slowness issue, but you can always tell what keyboard layout is active via the "flag" at the top right of the Finder. If you don't have this, check the box for "show input menu in Finder" in system prefs/international/input menu.

How to submit request with default language as 'American English' in other non-english language sessions.

Dear All,
Kindly suggest how to submit request with default language as 'American English' in other language sessions (Ex: Arabic).
R12: 12.1.3
The issue is we created function using 'arabic' text in it, which runs perfect in the english session, but doesnt gets value in the arabic session.
So we decided to make the submit request with default language as 'American English'.
Below is the function. Kindly note that SEGMENT1 is not linked to any valueset.

Dear All,
I found the solution for the above function.
In the same function I removed the static arabic values replacing with code values from the value set.
In my scenario there is a value set where some of these values exists, and other we can add there.
Kindly let me know if someone was successful by using the arabic text in the coding and defaulting the language in conc prog as English.
Thanks a lot.

Where to submit DPM feature improvement requests?

Where's the best place to submit DPM product "improvement" requests to Microsoft for their consideration?

Hi Mike,
Please accept the following feedback:
When DPM writes SQL databases from replica to tape, it rewinds the tape after every database, causing needless wear on the tape and tape drive. Today DPM is writing SQL databases to the end of a tape (at approx. the 2TB mark on an LTO5 tape),
and it's taking over 10 minutes of tape travel time for a 5MB database, then another 13 minutes for the next 4MB database. In the last three hours it's written 16 databases, taking over 10 minutes each time, their total size is less than 90GB,
and DPM rewound the tape after every database.
Please review the tape handling to ensure needless tape rewinding does not occur. We want SQL (and other) tape backups to stream data to the drive continuously until the tape is full.

Language switched from English to Danish

When my wife first attached her iPhone to her Mac (running iTunes 9), the language switched from English to Danish. After syncing, she reset the language back to English. But why? A known problem?
I did the same thing with my iPhone and Mac, and did not see anything unusual.

I believe this is a very unusual occurrence. It is a computer after all and computers have 'glitches' every once in a while - chalk it up to that.
BTW, I used to live in Bucks County... Riegelsville and Perkasie to be exact. We moved from Perkasie a couple years ago.

Will Adobe improve Ai to better take adv of multi-core processors & GPU's?

will Adobe improve Ai to better take adv of multi-core processors & GPU's?

And what specifically? You need to be much more specific what you expect to be faster and make better use of your resources. In any case you should get used to the thought that for many operations there is only limited potential to make them multi-threaded or even use GPU due to how the underlying math works. Perhaps we may get a GPU-based rasterize for faster previews, perhaps AI will use GPU prodcessing of pixel images one day, but beyond that I don't really see much. Pathfinders, blends and many otehr things are simply hard linear number-crunching.

After last update the split keyboard option is not working and side switch button option works opposite for mute and rotation lock

After last update the split keyboard option is not working and side switch button option works opposite for mute and rotation lock.

Hi
A long story about your issue... I think the reason of this is why you have deleted some registry keys. If you delete something in the Windows registry you should really know what you do. You can damage the complete Windows system!
So I think this is the reason why the keyboard doesnt anymore.
In the user manual I have founded that the CD-ROM booting option is only available with optional optical disk drive.
So for me it sounds like that your USB CD drive is not compatible to the notebook

Restrictions Really needs improvement for Business use

Hi
We have written an app and are replacing our industry standard barcode scanning devices with over 100 iPod Touches worldwide using a third party barcode sled accessory. This is much cheaper (Around $800 vs $1500) and offers a much richer and less confusing user interface to the end-user. However our end-users are often low paid seasonal workers employed by our clients, so when it comes to the restriction settings in iOS we try to lock the devices down as much as possible.
I think more and more people are treating the iPod/iPhone/iPad in commerical environments and so the ability to secure and maintain these devices really needs to be improved. Our situation aside you can use your iPhone as a point of sale with a credit card swipe, if you have a retail chain with several of these devices for use by employees you don't want them to be messing around on them or making choices that you don't want them to purposfully or accidently.
For instance:
iOS6 upgrade seems to download automatically and prompt the user if they want to install. There is no way to turn updates off, and not even a password is required to do it. In my scenario if someone gets the upgrade push and then clicks ok they then can't work for 30 minutes, not good if there is a long line of people waiting to be served.
WiFi/VPN connections can be changed
Passcode lock can be turned on/off/changed
Date/Time / Keyboard / International / Accessibility settings can all be played with
Weather app always available
Stocks app always available
Maps can be used (location can be disabled at least!)
etc..
If I (as a developer) tell our deployment manager to tell our client's manager to tell their scanning manager to tell their temporary workers to not mess around with things like the above....someones not going to listen, and our IT department is just going to have to check each device and clean up.
I know that apple's portable devices are aimed more at consumers, but I personlly think it's about time that we have some more attention to more business scenarios.
I don't want to come accross negative so i'll finish by saying that a lot of the restrictions in place are very useful. Being able to disable the store, iTunes and safari are very big wins, without those we wouldn't have switched to iOS devices.
Anyone else have a similar need for more administrative ability?
Thanks for reading.

One of these might be good for a POS (assuming you need touch screen), but those are terrible for graphic artists to use. All-in-ones are to be put bluntly, over-priced pieces of junk with crappy power supplies and worthless integrated video cards. They will run too hot most likely and need maintenance more often than larger well-ventilated desktop towers. Your graphic artists staff will hate the small low resolution monitors as well as the lack of decent GPU acceleration. The only good thing about them is the small form factor, a sacrifice well worth looking past IMHO.
Graphic artists should be using high-end monitors, IPS panels for accurate colors and high resolution displays of 2560x1600 pixels. I strongly recommend looking at Dell's Ultra Sharp models (particularly the 30"). If you end up getting three Dell Ultra Sharps then you might as well get the whole system from them as well and develop some sort of professional relationship and support system like most businesses.
*The monitor should be the most expensive component by far and it is the most important for work productivity, do not skimp out here, you run a graphic design firm after all!
Look for reasonably priced desktops with 4-8GB RAM, Intel or AMD quad core processors. Stay away from discrete graphics, Photoshop uses GPU acceleration found on higher end video cards and it is useful. Larger hard drives perform better than smaller ones because of areal density, so buy larger hard drives than needed (1-2TB drives with 500GB or larger platters) and run them in RAID1 for redundancy, because I doubt you have a storage area network.

A better way to generate the needed XML?

I am working on a 10.2 system and looking to see if there is a better way to generate the resulting XML than what I have come up with. Here is a test case and the output it generates. I don't really like querying the table for each column needed as the real table has eight columns I am pulling. I would like to make one pass on person_h and get the info needed instead of making eight passes, but not sure if it is possible.
with person_h as
   (select 1 id, 'M' gender, 'W' race, '170' weight from dual union all
    select 1, 'M', 'W', '170' from dual union all
    select 1, 'M', 'W', '180' from dual union all
    select 1, 'M', NULL, '175' from dual union all
    select 1, NULL, 'W', NULL from dual
select xmlelement("Person",
         (select xmlagg(xmlelement("Sex", gender))
            from (select distinct gender
                    from person_h
                   where id = 1
                     and gender is not null) pg),
         (select xmlagg(xmlforest(race as "Race"))
            from (select distinct race
                    from person_h
                   where id = 1) pg),
         (select xmlagg(xmlforest(weight as "Weight"))
            from (select distinct weight
                    from person_h
                   where id = 1) pg)
       ).getstringval()
from dual;
Output
<Person>
<Sex>M</Sex>
<Race>W</Race>
<Weight>170</Weight>
<Weight>175</Weight>
<Weight>180</Weight>
</Person>Note: Previously posted on the XML DB forum at A better way to generate the needed XML? but still looking for other solutions so putting in front of more eyes here. I have considered using a WITH statement to do the initial query on person_h but haven't tested that yet to see what Oracle really will do as just getting back around to this lower priority task of mine.

I'm using the WITH statement to simulate a table and DUAL/UNION ALL to create data in that "table". I've seen it used plenty of times in this forum so not sure why a problem for this example. The actual SQL/XML statement hits that "base table" three times, so I didn't include all eight columns because three columns is sufficient to show the problem in the way I coded the SQL. Following the SQL is the sample OUTPUT that SQL statement generates and that is the output I created and need. I'm just looking for other options to achieve the listed output.

Creating a request in Transports? Step by step needed.

Hi BW gurus,
I would like to know the steps for creating a request with collection of necessary objects which needs to be transported.
the necessary objects are: Multi provider, Info cube, Update rules.
Collection mode is selected as manually.
Grouping is selected as only necessary objects.
The Infocube which needs to be transported is the new one created from a copy of existing cube.
The Multiprovider is the existing one which has been modified by including the new cube created.
The Update rules which needs to be transported are also the new ones created from the copy of existing ones.
So, Please give me the step by step procedure for doing this.
Note: Against Multiprovider, we have a check box for transport. When that can be checked. I hope it can be checked if we select the data flow before & afterwards only.
Please clarrify.
Points will be rewarded for sure for all helpful answers.
So, please spare some time & write the answers.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
In Transport Connection Just select U r Multi provider select grouping with Before
then u 'ill get u r requirement after u can select witch objects u needs to transport.

Switching to Mac: Needed Programs and Functions Availible on Mac?

Hi,
I always wanted a Mac together with Logic Studio, finally I'm one step away of getting an iMac with 4 gigs ram and 1 TB HD, I'm just waiting for the next update, since I fall in the category "I want it but don't really need it now".
I have questions about things I really need on a Mac.
_*1. Logitech Marble Mouse Scroll Wheel Function*_
Unfortunately I have RSI (repetitive strain injury), meaning pain in the arms, that's why I bought the Logitech Marble Trackball Mouse to not tense while using the mouse and have less pain and be able to play the piano more. And it actually works well that way, I still have pain while playing the piano but it's not as much as before.
The thing is, this mouse doesn't have a scroll wheel, one way to scroll is to hold down the side button (which is used for back and forth in the internet browser) and scroll with the ball. But this doesn't work out of the box, I had to install a special program which auto starts together with WinXP and that way it does work even in music programs like Cubase 4. The only problem, this program is -sigh- for PC only.
*So my question is:* Is there any way to use the scroll wheel function of the Marble Mouse like I described above on a Mac, especially in Safari and Logic 8?
I wanted to contact Logitech but I can't find an email on their website.
_*2. Babylon Translation Tool*_
English is my 3rd language, I learnt it on my own and a very big help to learn this language was Babylon a small yet powerful translation tool that I use almost daily. The problem here is the same as above, this program is only availible for the PC.
*My question:* Are there any alternatives for Babylon on a Mac, for someone that really needs it on a daily basis? Keep in mind I'm not translating full texts, most of the time I'm translating just single words. And I need it to be English - English, English - German, German - English, and I'd need all these translations on one view, just like in Babylon.
Other than these two things, I don't really think I'd miss too much from the PC World, not that I can think of yet.
