Looking for simple line drawing program [Solved]

I am looking for a simple line drawing program with the following features :
command-driven ( line, circle, ellips and such commands)
used commands need to be exportable or copyable
2D
a canvas with arbitrary size
libreoffice Draw, Koffice Karbon and xfig are not suitable for this.
I have some experience with Autocad, but no access to that anymore.
Any suggestions ?

I think TeX can draw alright.

kioslaves are cool. i guess they were working for me and i didnt even know it. i especially like the audiocd one. and thanks for pointing out that asset, i will refer to it more often now that i know about it, and learn how to maximize the use for them.
using dolphin, i was having some problems initially (nothing to do with standard ftp however) because the directory is actually a 'webprotect' directory, so is accessed by as http://user.domain.com/location i had to manipulate the url for a while to get it to load as ftp://domain.com/public_html/users/uname/location, infact i couldnt log in at all using my username, i had to log into the server as root using this method. this is because the webprotect uses .htaccess for permissions, so as accessed from ftp:// i believe the server doesnt use the permissions from the .htaccess. so thats one hitch when using a filebrowser such as dolphin.
COOLEST thing i found so far, using the file browser, it supports RESUME. wow. thats nice! saves teh file as .part, then suggests a resume when transfer senses the file already exists.
im SURE there is a way around this, ill just have to play with it for a while. because i dont want to be logging in as root, i want to utilise the subdomain that i created for users access on the website storage folders.

How do I create a simple "prize draw" program?

Hey, I'd like to create a simple "prize draw" program
that randomly selects a name (or number) from a list of names, I'd like it to be my own custom version. For a programmer this is probably the easiest thing but I'm new to programming (beginner), don't eve know if I'm in the right subcategory (flash). Is there a tutorial or something somewhere that you guys think could help me out, please?

Create the list as an array and use the Math methods to randomly pick one of the values from the array.
var prizeArray = new Array("name1","name2");
var drawnPrize = prizeArray[Math.floor(Math.random()*prizeArray.length)];
trace(drawnPrize);
If you don't know if you should be using Flash, then you probably don't want to be looking for help until you figure out what you intend to do for your custom design.

Looking for a less expensive program other than Photoshop CS6

Looking for a less expensive program other than Photoshop CS6 and was wondering if Photoshop Elements is the answer. Does Photoshop Elements read PSD files, create layers, can you change the levels and color balance?

Yes, and much more.
Why not try the 30 days trial version which has all the features of Elements ?

Looking for automated log watching program

I am looking for a log watching program similar to Logwatch on Linux which can then be automated, for my Xserves. Does anyone know of such a product?
Thanks,
Lisa

Just pay attention that you should immediately upgrade Snort as the HenWen website says, "The bundled version of Snort will not run in Leopard due to a change in Leopard's iODBC library (and you shouldn't use it in Tiger, either, since it has a security hole)."

Looking for a certain application/program

I am most definitly in the wrong forum, but the people who use this forum are probably the most knowlidgable about the application i am looking for.
I have a wacom tablet, and am getting very good at drawings and animation. I was wondering if anyone knew of a program where i can draw on my tablet , and it would record it like a film, so that i could import it in fcp. If anyone knows of this program, a similar program, or a program that includes this feture i would be very interested in knowing what it is?
Ethan

Another route would be to do it in After Effects.
You wouldn't draw, like what you're describing, but you can create paths that would stroke themselves on. i.e. you'd draw it before hand with the pen tool in After Effects or Illustrator, then stroke your paths, and key frame the end-point to make it look like it 'draws' on.
It's a bit trickier, but then you can make sure there are no mistakes, make is scalable (vector-based), and very smooth.
Just so you have options.

Looking for Simple JSTL Example

Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for an example of a simple Web application that uses "JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library" (JSTL) -- that doesn't use JDeveloper!
I have OC4J stand-alone 10.1.3.0.0 on Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack2 with JDK 1.5.0_07
I created and packaged a J2EE application in a EAR file. The EAR file contents:

</html>My JSTL implementation comes from here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/standard-doc/intro.html
The distribution contains a "standard.jar" file and a "jstl.jar" file (among other things). The "standard.jar" file is included in my WAR (see above) and I have copied the "jstl.jar" file to:
%J2EE_HOME%\jsp\lib\taglibI launch OC4J from the command prompt like this:
java -jar oc4j.jarI deploy my EAR using the following command:
java -jar admin.jar ormi://localhost oc4jadmin xxx -deploy -file frstjstl.ear -deploymentName FirstJSTL -bindWebApp default-web-siteThen I launch my Web browser and enter the following URL:
http://localhost/frstjstlAnd I get the following error message:
500 Internal Server Error
OracleJSP: oracle.jsp.parse.JspParseException: /index.jsp: Line # 8, <c:forEach var="httpRequestHeaders" items="${headerValues}">
Error: Attribute: items is not a valid attribute nameThanks (for reading),
Avi.

Thanks Qiang.
Yes, when I copy file "index.jsp" to directory "%J2EE_HOME%\default-web-app\testJstl.jsp" it works.
I use the following URL:
http://localhost:8888/testJstl.jspAnd this is the output I get:
[Format modified to be more suitable to post on this forum.]
Simplest JSTL
CONNECTION = [Ljava.lang.String;@7348e
USER-AGENT = [Ljava.lang.String;@10b8d03
ACCEPT-LANGUAGE = [Ljava.lang.String;@157011e
ACCEPT-ENCODING = [Ljava.lang.String;@10a8143
ACCEPT = [Ljava.lang.String;@ac8360 HOST = [Ljava.lang.String;@1e534cb
[/pre]
But I guess, since the JSTL related JAR files are part of the default Web application, there is no reason it shouldn't work.
That's why you said:
Let us do a sanity test first.So now what?
(And, by the way, thanks for your help.)
Cheers,
Avi.

Looking for some pencil draw or cartoon filters please!

hey guys
is there any good cartoon/pencil like filters that i can use with final cut express please?
you know the ones to get a cartoon effect or to look like a pencil drawing etc
thanks for any info!

Try New Blue FX. They have a a lot of great effects and a freebie called Cartoonr, which might work for you. Also look at Line Art. It's an included filter in FCE.

Looking for simple timeline/calendar screenlet/widget.

Good day gentlemen,
I'm looking for a simple screenlet or widget for linux that is a calendar, but designed to be more of a timeline of past events than a reminder of future events. For my specific purpose in this case I'm trying to lose weight. So I'm seeking an application to record my previous weight and other notes about what i ate, and how much and what kind of nutrients i had that day. I would like to keep it in a calendar or timeline like format. Something easy to the point where if my buddy asked me how much i weighed last week or what i did last week, i can simply click on the date and all my notes appear about my weight, and what i ate, etc. Also simple to input data like clicking on the date and entering a note about that day. Something easy to use and sort of integrated into the desktop such as a screenlet or widget, so I don't have to open up a separate window to view these records. I did a little research and was able to find a few things, Rainlendar being one of them. But I feel most of what i found are way more complicated for my purpose. Would any of you happen to have any suggestions on what application would most suit my purpose in its most simplistic form? thanks in advance for your kind and prompt response
Sincerely,
Sicariuxs

There are, apparently, quite a variety of tools just for this purpose. here's one. That was just the first one up from a search, I don't actually know anything about it. But overall, I'd suggest you actually narrow your search as there are tools targetted specifically for such goals.

I have a client who was working with Now to Date, which is now obsolete. She is looking for a mac calendar program that is as close to Now to Date as possible. She has installed Outlook 2012 but finds that is takes too much time to enter data. Help?

I have a client who has been using Now to Date on her Mac. That program is now obscure and she is looking for software that is extremely similar. She has tried Outlook for Mac and it is too labor-intensive for her. She wants a professional look, and something that is not linked to e-mail as she works with a lot of proprietary information. Help?

I could not identify that app in macupdate.com. If a Calendar program, what about iCal? did she try it and disliked? If you go to macupdate.com, and type ‘calendar’ in seach filed, you will be given a lot of apps, you or she should test what it most appropriate for your/her needs.

Looking for SIMPLE time tracking app

Hi all
I'm looking for a really simple 'retrospective' time sheet app - wondering if anyone knows one?
I've seen literally hundreds, but they all want you to 'click to start the clock' and then click to end it. This doesn't work for me, as I spend only about 25% of my time in front of the computer.
What I'm looking for is something that I can put all my client contacts in, then separately link projects to those clients. Then at the end of each day I can quickly recall what I did during the day and assign time to each project.
Most apps want you to assign time to each project as you go through the day, so its relatively painless to switch projects. However when you do it all at the end of the day, you don't want to keep entering the date, you just want to enter the start/end time, and what project it was. More like a journal entry I guess.
Then at the end of the month it would print a report that groups the hours worked on each project so that you can review them and create an invoice (or in my case send to my accounts clerk who makes the invoice for me).
Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi shannonbray, welcome to the AppleWorks forum, which is intended for discussions of Apple's now-legacied productivity suite called AppleWorks.
One could develop such a template using the spreadsheet or database modules of AW separately or in combo,but it doesn't sound as if that's your aim. I'm sure clever types have done such things, and perhaps shared them to the AWUserGroups and such, and I hope they note your post and reply. There are certainly numerous clever folks who follow this forum, and they may have pointers to other apps for you, but essentially I think you've posed the wrong question in the wrong place.

I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air. I'm looking for an app or program where I can track time spent of specific projects each day and also document details of each project. Is there anything available that is synced through iCloud?

I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air. I'm looking for a program or app that I can sync though iCloud that will allow me to us all of these devices to track time spent on projects each day along with the ability to add specific information about each project. Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

I recommend you consider Omnifocus. It is a task management program which runs on the Mac, Iphone & Ipad. I use it for task management and project management. It let's you store additional information as well. I sync all three devices through a Mobile Me account and I can enter data on any device and it is available on all devices. I believe you can also sync through Dropbox. I'm not sure that you can sync through iCloud yet. The link to their website is: www.omnigroup.com. There may be less expensive alternatives, but this one meets my needs and syncs very well across all devices.
