Looking for a way to directly choose keyboard layout.

I'm looking for a way to organise separated keyboard keys combinations (or single keys - the best) for every keyboard layout. I want to be able to choose layout directly. One unique key (keys combination) for each layout.
One way may be smth. like setting a key to execute a command:
setxkbmap -layout "us,ru"
and
setxkbmap -layout "ru,us"
For keys setup in OpenBox may be used obkey, for example.
In general it works. But in such a case, when not latin/english layout is the first one, or even single one, in the command's layout list, applications will not react on Ctrl-S, Ctrl-Z and so on. It do not depend on current layout, it depend on the first entry in last sequence to be used in the layouts list.
I'm shure there are some other better ways to implement the idea. Please, give me advise: what a tool, or tool set to study and use?

(just make sure that the changed layout doesn't break your keybind):
setxkbmap -rules xorg -model pc104 -layout us -option
Just change the layout parameters (and any other changes you need) for as many layouts as you want.
Unfortunately, if the single layout, or first in the list layout is not 'us', but my national, GUI applications will stop to react on Ctrl-S, Ctrl-Z and similar things.
Can it be fixed?
Is it that Ctrl-[S,Z] don't work or that they change locations because the keyboard layout has been modified? The first is a problem, the second is to be expected if you are changing the keyboard layout.
Stack wrote:
As I catch, for testing there is no difference between setxkbmap and xorg.conf. Also, there is no way to specify there layout specific switch combinations. In coma separated list of values for XKbOptions there is not binds to corresponding position in layouts list. All the combinations will do the same - cycle between layouts. http://www.xfree86.org/current/XKB-Config2.html#5
Layout itself and layout switching mechanics are too different objects (or classes) in terms of programming. I'm not shure I'll be on a right way, if I'll decide to dive deeply into syntax of '/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/xorg' and '/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/*' (mentioned at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … _xorg.conf ) and hacking of ready to use layouts. If I'm searching for a way to switch them only. Am I right?
My suggestion isn't that you use the XkbOptions switch since this won't work for what you are asking. Instead, I'm recommending you use a little keyboard shortcut utility, xbindkeys and use that to issue the setxkbmap command I mentioned earlier. All you have to do is bind the shortcut to keys that don't change across keyboard layout changes (if you have a number pad, an easy solution is to use a modifier + one of these keys as it won't change). This isn't a toggle like the xorg.conf edit, but can switch to any layout you choose to bind in any order you choose to perform.

Looking for a way to export full Popularity Trends data

Greetings!
I'm looking for a way to access all "popularity trends" data for a SharePoint 2013 publishing site in one place. I'm probably missing something pretty basic here, (I hope), but it seems if I pull up popularity trends for the site, all I get is
the hits & unique users for the site as a whole. If I go into my pages library and choose "Most Popular Items," I'm given a search results page that I can't run reports from. And if I select the "popularity trends" link under one of
those search results, I get a usage report for a single, specific page.
I've thought about doing a multi-select of pages from my site's Pages library, but I have more than 100 pages in the site, so I still can't get at everything all at once. Plus, the resulting usage.xlsx file just includes a lot of reports on individual
pages.
There's got to be something more all-encompassing than this...right?
Help!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to see the all popularity trends data for a site.
Where did you export the usage report?
Did you export the report from Popularity and Search Reports?
To view the Popularity Trends report for a site collection
Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is a member of the Owners group.
In the site collection, on the Settings menu, click Site ettings.
On the Site Settings page, in the Site Collection Administration section, click Popularity and Search Reports.
On the View Usage Reports page, in the Usage Reports section, click Usage.
In the message box, click Open to open the report in Excel, or click Save or Save as to save the report.
Click the tabs to view the usage report for the different usage event types.

I am looking for a way to disable the windows ct

rl-alt-del function in a LabVIEW 6.0 VI. I also need to disable the bottom task bar including the Start key in Windows NT 4.0. My goal is to keep the VI exclusively on the screen and disable the users from switching to other programs or shut off the PC.

My goal is to keep the VI exclusively on the screen and disable the users from switching to other programs or shut off the PC.Public libraries use applications like WinSelect to lock down access to machines.
http://www.winselect.com/
But control-alt-delete in NT4.0 is a kernel level security feature that can't be
defeated unless you hide the keyboard. By using registry settings you can
control what is presented to the user after he hits control-alt-delete and keep
him/her from shutting down, but you will also have to lock up the computer to keep
your users from hitting the reset button and hide the mouse.
If you want to boot up an NT environment without a keyboard and mouse
you will need to go to NT Embedded. NTE allows you to build a custom
OS that does not require keyboard or mouse to boot. You can also install
just the components you need, ie; no browser, menus, control panel, etc.

Alan

Looking for a way to hide the menu bar

hey all, i've been looking for a way to hide the menu bar completely and then mouse over it to bring it back, like how the dock is when it's hidden. i want the same thing for the menu bar to free up a little more space and make it a little cleaner looking. i'm currently using eclipse just to black it out completely but there's just a black bar across the top of my screen with it and i just want it gone. any suggestions?

As an aside; if you need to keep several apps fairly close to hand without cluttering the menu bar or dock, create a folder within your Applications folder, and place aliases of the apps in there, then drag the folder to the dock below the divider (next to the trash). Right click on the folder in the dock to get a pop-up list to choose from. I use the same idea for frequently used files and games too (seperate folders)

Looking for a way to increase the sildeshow size in iWeb

I'm looking for a way to increase the slide show size from the pictures page in iWeb. It looks like it iPhone sized. I have tried it on 4 different computer with the same result

There's really no easy way of doing so without post publication editing of some of the support files. There were other topics earlier on this subject but no one was able to do it .
You can use 3rd party java script slideshows instead of iWeb's. Examples of some are:
Jalbum - it has over 100 themes/skins to choose from and many will let you set the size of the slideshow image. An example can be see on this demo page: Jalbum Examples.
Other options are:
SimpleViewer and Flash Album Exporter
Flash Album Exporter Postcard and AutoViewer Slideshow Themes
The last two are from an iPhoto plugin.

Looking for a way to Export Still Image to iPhoto

Hi I'm looking for a way to export a still image from iMovie 08 to iPhoto 08? The simple drag, help, web search etc doesn't seem to come up with an answer but it's been a long day.
Thanks

Find the still within an event clip, right mouse, select add still frame to project. Repeat for all the stills you want.
In Finder under pictures, you should find files for all the stills you created. Import them into Iphoto and there you have it.
There is probably an easier way but this is not too bad.

Looking for a way to switch views using Javascript

Hi ! I'm currently studying Acrobat 3D. I've got a PDF document with a 3D Annotation, which was imported from a U3D file. I defined 3 views : "initial", "front" and "top". My problem is that I'm looking for a way to switch views using Javascript. In fact, when I list cameras using the following code, I only get one camera called "DefaultView". So my question is : where has my "initial", "front" and "top" views been ? Is there a way I can switch between them using Javascript ? for(i=1;i<scene.cameras.count;++i) { Cam = scene.cameras.getByIndex(i); console.println("camera " + i + " : " + Cam.name); } Thank you very much in advance. françois

Are the dates on these entries correct??!! Doesn't seem like it. Anyway, just in case, here's some code to help:

canvas = event.canvas;
background = canvas.background;
keyer = new KeyEventHandler();
keyer.onEvent = function(event)
switch (event.characterCode)
case 49:
cam = scene.cameras.getByIndex( 0 );
canvas.setCamera( cam );
break;
case 50:
cam = scene.cameras.getByIndex( 2 );
canvas.setCamera( cam );
break;
case 51:
cam = scene.cameras.getByIndex( 3 );
canvas.setCamera( cam );
break;
runtime.addEventHandler( keyer );
runtime.addEventHandler(backgrounder);
//inform user

you are asking about Microsoft products and using a laptop, not a workstation Mac Pro.
The Numbers and Pages Apple Communities. or MS Community if you want those.
Importing and Exporting, but Numbers and Pages will not do a SAVE into other formats by default, and therefore have to keep using Export which is messy.

Looking for a way to create/edit a newsletter online, then be able to generate a customized PDF file

I am looking for a way to be able to customize a newsletter online, then be able to export/generate a PDF file from that newsletter.
Basically this is for a friend that is a real estate agent, and currently she is creating the newsletters in MS Publisher. I'm hoping to find a way to be able to allow her to login to a secure area of her webpage(that part isn't a problem) but then be able to create/customize a monthly newsletter that needs to be customizable.
For example, the August Newsletter will be 2-sided, and most of the newsletter will be the same, but she needs to be able to have a newsletter for different apartment buildings so the customers can just go to their building link/area on the webpage and be able to download that month's custom PDF file that has a portion of the main newsletter that is a table/list of properties for that specific location. The data will be stored in a database.
After writing the above, I can probably create a front-end to the database so she can enter everything that way, but I still need a way for her to generate the customized PDFs after she is done with that month's data.
I was hoping Adobe had something that could be used, or am I stuck using php or Javascript and just doing this with custom scripting?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

I think you will have to do the latter. While you are thinking about writing the PDF file, don't overlook fpdf (google it)....

Daniel.AFAIK, a string of text does not have an (x,y) location inside a PDF file. The location is exists on your screen, and will differ whenever you adjust the resolution of it. Text can have a location when it's stored as an image though, but than it's really the location of a certain number of pixels (not necessarily a string!).
