Line Tool Issue

When using the line tool in 'pixels' mode, with 'anti-alias' unchecked, I drew a line holding the shift key for angle snapping. While drawing a lengthy 45 degree line, I'm able to offset the line by tiny increments of .3 +/- , resulting in a line that shifts from a clean 45 degree angle.
It seems the end closest to the cursor is locking onto the nearest pixel. Shouldn't that be disabled when holding shift for angle snapping?

If you have the snap to pixel grid preference enabled, then even the line tool will snap to the pixel grid.
(I know, it's odd, but that's the way the UI designers said it had to work)

HI
Pricing will be carried basing on the pricing
procedure.
Case1: Prices will be carried out automatically if
necessary condition records are maintained for the
condition type.
For this you can go to Sales Order-> Item Conditions
In the screen you can click on command button Analysis,
which gives you the list of condition types associated
to the pricing procedure. By clicking on the condition
type you can know the action that has taken place.
Case2: Manually forcing prices for Items.
To do this, you have to populate ORDER_CONDITIONS_IN &
ORDER_CONDITIONS_INX. Also note to identify the item
numbers, you manually pass the item number for each item
in the sales order, use the same item number for
populating conditions.
Parameters required:
ORDER_CONDITIONS_IN:
ITM_NUMBER, COND_TYPE, COND_VALUE, CURRENCY
ORDER_CONDITIONS_INX:
ITM_NUMBER, COND_TYPE, UPDATEFLAG, COND_VALUE,CURRENCY.
Hope the above info helps you. Do revert back if you
need more info.
Kind Regards

GUI Applications unable to use command line tools

Hi All-
I've searched, but I can't find a thread about this one, so...
On OS 10.4.5:
Whenever I use a GUI app that wants to use a command line tool (e.g. curl, df, java), the app fails giving an error message to the effect of "unable to find curl" or the like. It is as if the GUI cannot find my unix $PATH.
Examples:
-- Eclipse refuses to launch, because it appears to use "java xxxxxxx" to launch.
-- Automator fails to run certain Safari actions because they use curl to navigate web pages.
-- Carbon Copy Cloner fails to launch, because it can't find a tool (df, IIRC) to read drive/volume info
Possibly relevant details:
-- I can use the tool in question from the command line, so they are present, and in my $PATH, but the GUI can't find them.
-- I recently moved from an old G4 to a relatively new G5, and had issues migrating files, so I eventually just copied my entire home directory from the old machine to the new, replacing the freshly created one on the new machine. I feel like that missed something that tells the GUI where your $PATH is, or some other link between GUI and command line.
-- I created a new user, and that user does not experience the same troubles. This adds to my suspicion that it is account/PATH related.
Any help anyone can give it greatly appreciated.

PM G5 dual 2.0 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Did you by any chance create an evironment.plist file? It is located in ~/.MacOSX/ If you don't know about it or don't know to look (.MacOSX is normally invisible), try this:
In Finder.app, in the "Go" menu select "Go to Folder..." (shift-command-G), type ~/MacOSX in the text field and hit OK, the finder should then open a window or complain.
If it opens a window and you find in it a file named environment.plist move that file to the desktop and try your applications. Do they work as advertized? Try again after logging in/out if things don't work. Do they work now?
Whatever hapens, tell us more...

Line tool "snap to pixel" option?

Hello,
This issue has been bugging me ever since Adobe introduced vector shapes in PS. Adding the "snap to pixels" option to the shapes has been awesome... but where's the love for the line tool? I'm still forced to use the marquee tool to make a sharp line 1px line.

It produces "good" lines, but not pixel pefect lines. I just tried creating a 1px line at 100% and still the line spilled out of it's pixel. I've attached what I see.

Line tool shadow

When I use the line tool, I get a shadow line. I need as clean 1px line. How do I turn off the shadow.

How strange. I see it as well. And it's inconsistent - the following were five lines drawn one after the other starting from the top. This was after resetting the tool and deleting the preferences file.
As a workaround you could use the pencil tool - for lines it is easiest to click the start point, then Shift+Click the end point. On straight lines it's nice and clean.
Cheers,
Neale

Acrobat 8 - Settings or preferences for Line Tool??

A colleague using Acrobat 8 can't use the line tool without having the lines snap to predetermined angles. I've looked in the preferences to no avail. The ability to turn this on/off is not located in the Commenting category of Prefs, nor does turning snap off in the Measuring categories resolve the issue. There is no Markup category in Prefs, so where do I find it?
Thanks
[EDIT] Wow, never mind. He had Snap to Grid turned on...

Probably has snap to grid checked under the view menu.

Biar Export using Biar Command line tool

Hi All,
I am trying to export biar file using the biar command line tool for that i have written a .properties file and running that using the batch file , Here are the contents -
Biarexport.properties -
exportBiarLocation=C:/work/biartest/level.biar
action=exportXML
userName=E372019
password=welcome9
CMS=tss0s108:6800
authentication=secEnterprise
includeSecurity=true
exportDependencies=true
exportQuery= Select * from ci_infoobjects where si_kind in ('CrystalReport','Folder') and si_name='Air Travel Activity' and SI_INSTANCE = 0
and running the above .properties file using below command u2013
cd C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0\java\lib
java -jar biarengine.jar C:\work\biartest\biarexport.properties
I get the biar file created on the given folder but if I compare itu2019s size(261KB) with the biar which I create manually from the Import Wizard(35 KB) , then comparatively it is bigger. It seems biar has every instance.
This increases the file size unnecessary since we do not need the instances in the BIAR, just the report and the dependent repository objects.
Need your assistance on this issue!
Thanks for your help!

I would suggest creating a case with support to go over this, you should have a support agreement since you have the Enterprise product.

Executing batch files via ODI cmd line tool

Hi,
I'm experiencing an issue when trying to run batch files via the ODI Cmmmand line tool with any agent that isn't the local agent. My call is simply the full filepath of the batch file. When I run with local agent everything works fine. However when I run with an agent configured in the Topology the process just hangs in the operator indefinately in a running state but never executes or produces any output and I have to kill it. Any ideas? The agent is installed on the same server as the ODI Studio instance I use when running the local agent

Sounds like that on the remote agent, the batch job is waiting for a user key input and hence it appears in a hung state. You can add try to trace from Agent logs and echo combinations to know where is this happening
In unix environment you can send keys programmatically. Not sure how to do that in the Windows environment.

Line Tool in Adobe Acrobat 9.0

The line tool is permitting only horizontal and vertical rules, and it attempts to join these as 90-degree angles. Is there a way to adjust this so that I can make diagonal rules?

I can draw lines at any angle with the line tool. Just keep your finger off the shift key.

Running a command in a command line tool in fastest way

Before anything I want to clarify some terms :
apk
file (android application package file) : equivalent to executable (exe) files on windows
aapt.exe
: A command line tool which comes with android sdk in order to fetch information of an apk file (It obviously has other usages)
note : This question is not about an android feature. It's all about C# and functionality of .Net framework
An
apk file has a name just same as any other file, but it has a internal name (which will be shown when you install apk file on android os as name of application)
with
aapt.exe I can get internal name of an apk using following command :
aapt
d badging "<apk path>"
I
have copied aapt.exe where executable file of my c# application is and I want :
Enter
above command for each apk in selected directory (using GetAllFiles method)
I want to get internal names of apk files and
I've tried a lot of ways and I've searched a lot. finally this is what I've got :
Process proc = new Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true;
proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
proc.StartInfo.StandardOutputEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
proc.Start();
using (StreamWriter sw = proc.StandardInput)
foreach (string path in Directories.GetAllFiles(@"E:\apk", "apk"))
sw.WriteLine("aapt d badging " + "\"" + path + "\"");
//following line doesn't work because sStandardInput is open
Debug.WriteLine(proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd());
// There will be a really huge amount of text (at least 20 line per sw.Writeline) and
//it impacts performance so following line is not really what I'm looking for
Debug.WriteLine(proc.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd());
GetAllFiles is
a function that I've created to fetch all apk file full path. It gets two argument. First argument is path and second one is extension of file you want its full path to be fetched.
This is not final code.
As I've commented it out first Debug.WriteLine doesn't
work and second one is not a good idea. how should I get output from proc?
I have tried running process by argument and its awful :)
As another approach :
Because apk files are basically zip files I can extract them get what I want from them.
There is an xml file named Androidmanifest.xml in every apk file.
Androidmanifest.xml is like an ID card for an apk file and apk internal name can be found in it but here are some problems with this approach :
1. Androidmanifest.xml is not a plain text file. It's coded and it requires a lot of complexity to decode it
2. application name (or apk internal name) is an attribute in this file and it's value is not a string value. It's a reference to a file where strings are stored and worst thing is it's not an easy to find out reference. It's just a number

And you don't get any output from it? Maybe you're passing the arguments incorrectly?
No. I don't get any result and I have checked arguments and it's correct.
But you are already running a separate process for every apk file. You start a single cmd.exe and then send it commands that will cause aapt to be run for every file. Unless aapt accepts multiple apk filenames on the command line there's no way
around using separate processes.
I didn't know that. anyway speed in this way is much more rather than creating a function. creating a Process object in it and calling function for each apk file.
I read somewhere that it's possible to run multiple commands in cmd by & operator but as you said I think every command runs aapt. I have tested this approach too and it's very very slow
fastest approach I have found is what I have wrote here and speed is about 0.6 per apk file which is still slow when there is thousands of apk files.
I tried an application that does same thing (fetching apk information) and in it's installation directory I found aapt.exe which means it uses this tool to get information but speed is significantly faster rather than my application.
So what's your suggestion about this?

Error while exporting webi reports using BIAR command line tool.

HI,
We are trying to export webi objects to a biar file using the biar command line tool, biarengine.jar in XI 3.0. We are using the query select * from ci_infoobjects where si_kind='webi'.
We are getting an error "unable to create plugin object".
Export of all other objects is going through fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ashok

Try this
importBiarLocation=C:/test.biar

CMS=cmsname:6400
authentication=secEnterprise
exportQuery=select * from ci_appobjects where si_kind='universe'

Command Line Tools installs the latest version of clang (and others) in /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/... but not in /usr/bin/

I've upgraded Xcode to the latest 5.1 Installed Command Line Tools via xcode-select --install Homebrew tells me "A newer Command Line Tools release is available"
brew --config:
Xcode: 5.1 CLT: 5.1.0.0.1.1393561416 LLVM-GCC: build 2336 Clang: 3.1 build 318
Checking my clang executable:
$ /usr/bin/clang --version Apple clang version 3.1 (tags/Apple/clang-318.0.58) (based on LLVM 3.1svn)
$ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/clang --version Apple LLVM version 5.1 (clang-503.0.38) (based on LLVM 3.4svn)
So it appears Command Line Tools didn't install clang (and perhaps other executables) into /usr/bin? I checked my other laptop (w/ Mavericks), and /usr/bin/clang is version 5.1.
So I'm guessing this is the problem? I've tried to reinstall Command Line Tools as sudo, but now it won't let me install again (says software isn't currently available).
Can anyone help me with this? I've spent hours on it now, but can't find a solution.
Thanks

BTW, I installed Xcode 5.1 from the Store, but have never run xcode-select --install. Here is the verbose output from a clang.

Acrobat pro: how set default properties for arrow and line tool seperately?

I have a problem with the 'comment and markup' tools in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
I would like to change the defaults of some of the tools, eg the arrow and the line tool.
This can be achieved by right-clicking on something drawn using the tool in question and then selecting 'properties' - or by selecting the tool and then press ctrl+E, wich opens a 'Callout Tool Properties', and then change what you want there. The latter option keeps the changes as defaults - the former offers a box to tick in the 'properties' dialogue that opens - or, you can right-click on the object again after having changed the properties, and then select 'Make Current Properties Default'.
My Problem is now, that, apparently, you cannot choose and save default properties freely and for each tool. I woul like to have the default properties for the line tool set as the following:
-line color: yellow
-line thickness: 8pt
-opacity: 60%
and fot the arrow tool as this:
-line color: red
-line thickness: 1pt
-opacity: 100%
This all works fine as long as the program is open. As soon as I exit and start it again opening another document /the same one again, the arrow tool changes to
-line color: yellow
-opacity: 60%
only the line thickness remains at 1pt.
If I change the properties of the line to the ones I want for the arrow, the arrow properties remain unaltered if I close Acrobat Pro.
Why do these properties interfere? Why is it "line color/thickness" in both? Why, then, do only the opacity and the color interfere, but not the thickness - even if it's the latter two properties that are bot called "line xxx"? Why does Acrobat not save all properties for these two shapes seperately - even IF the two shapes are both of a line-like kind?
Is there a way to get around this?

Trobbel - This indeed is puzzling behavior. Clicking 'Make Current Properties Default' should preserve the default appearance for each. I don't have a solution, but merely a couple of suggestions:
1) Make sure you have installed any available upgrade for your version of Acrobat Professional.
2) Consider using the line tool exclusively - you can add an arrowhead and make one tool perform both tasks.
Hope this helps. /rmbrown

In Adobe Flash CS6, I have a blue box appearing around lines drawn with the line tool (and other tools like brush etc). I can't figure out how to disable.

In Adobe Flash CS6, I have a blue box appearing around lines drawn with the line tool (and other tools like brush etc). Whenever I try to use a tool, a blue box appears around the line and I have to double click it to manipulate it, which opens just that line in a semi burred screen where all the other objects are semi-grey in the background. I can manipulate this line in this screen but nothing else at that time which I could do about 5 minutes ago. For exampe, I no longer can join up 2 lines drawn by the line tool together. For some reason this started randomly (probably due to a accidental shortcut combination) and I just can't put it back to what it used to be. I have inserted a video hopefully showing what I mean. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you - Just what I needed

Line Tool Question

Hi, I'm new to this forum. I'm using freehand for my job and today when I select the line tool
to draw a line across a box, a small circle is appearing in the cross hatch.
Does anyone know what this is and how to stop it? It's never done it before.
Below is a picture to show what I mean.
thanks, Allison

Hi Allison,
If you have any of the snap-to functions enabled (snap to guide, object or grid) then FH draws a small circle when the cursor hovers over a snap target. I shows you the exact location where the snap will occur. I don’t see it before starting to drag a line, though.
You should see it on other tool cursors as well, such as pen, rectangle, ellipse, etc.
Do you have any snap-to functions enabled?
