Maintaining Inherent Zoom with Destinations
In Acrobat Pro 9 Extended, I have a document with pages linked in an index on the first page. I select Inherent Zoom for the links for numbered pages so that they will be displayed the same size the user has chosen on the first page. This works well if the link goes to a numbered page.
However, if I create a named Destination within a page, Inherent Zoom does not appear to be available. The page with the Destination is displayed the size in which it was originally created. How does one apply the Interent Zoom feature to pages with Destinations?
Unfortunately, Acrobat doesn't allow you to create such named destinations. A plugin such as Autobookmark does, however: http://www.evermap.com/autobookmark.asp#Feature%20Summary%20/%20Destinations

How do I create a link to the middle of a page with Inherit Zoom?
I keep going around and around on this. I am using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and I'm trying to create an internal link in the PDF to go to the middle of the page somewhere else in the same document. I don't want to change the user's zoom level.
I can create a bookmark that does this by adding tags and having the bookmarks created from those tags (which is a ludicrious process, but at least a way). But links don't seem to attach to bookmarks or tags.
I can create a link that does exactly this by creating a document in MS Word, using styles and links to those styles and then saving it as a PDF. So I know the PDF itself can do this, I just can't figure out how to do it through Adobe.
Is there any way to create a link to a tag or to a bookmark? Setting a link to Page View always changes the zoom level, and then if I change the zoom back to Inherit Zoom the link just goes to the top of the page.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
ChrisHrm, I feel like I'm just missing something obvious. Here are the exact steps I'm taking:
Have zoom level up high enough so you're only seeing part of a page.
Click "Add or Edit Link"
Draw a box around the text.
Link Appearance:
Link Type: Invisible Rectangle
Highlight Style: Invert
Link Action: Go to a page view
Click "Next"
Scroll down so I'm looking at the middle of the next page.
Click "Set Link".
Right-click on the link-box and click "Properties..."
Click "Actions" tab and then "Edit" and change the Zoom to "Inherit Zoom". "OK" back to the page.
Change zoom level, use the hand icon and click on the link.
I'm taken to the top of the correct page and my zoom level doesn't change. I am not taken to the middle of that page, though.
Do you experience different behaviour? -
Bookmarks and Inherit Zoom issues
Currently using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
Why is there still no option to set the default zoom level while bookmarking? My work requires documents/bookmarks to be set to the "Inherit Zoom" option. Currently the only way I have been able to find to correct this is to set every bookmark individually. Not hard to do but when you have to set this for 1000's of bookmarks it gets very tedious and frustrating. Not to mention is a huge waste of time.
Please tell me that I have overlooked a feature to set or allow me to change this.
(I have seen posts of this nature but all seem to be out of date and none that referred to Adobe XI)
Thank you!No, you didn't miss anything. Here is a third party tool that picks up the slack though. There is a try-out version of it so you can test it to make sure it does what you want but the description seems in line with what you want to achieve.

How do you set the zoom level to Inherit Zoom for all bookmarks in a pdf?
How do you set the zoom level to Inherit Zoom for all bookmarks in a pdf?
beatngu13
I made an account just to "like" your comment and say that you are a god among men.
I've been searching for hours about how to make the zoom level persistent throughout following links in various PDF's I have, and most sources were saying to just buy acrobat pro and edit the bookmarks manually with it.
I saw that it was possible to write an application to change the property, and considered doing it after the only pre-existing custom application I could find was asking for $50.
Thanks to you, I no longer have to worry about re-zooming every time I click a bookmark, and I'm not out $50 or the time it would take to code an app myself!
From the bottom of my heart, thank you! -
Page text appears very small on laptop while utilizing full resolution on a dell XPS laptop. Zoomed-in a notch or two it looks good. Readable without squinting. But browse to a different page, and its tiny all over again. Firefox, being the best browser on the web, should think about allowing users to maintain their zoom value when going to a different page, instead of going back to default. Just an idea... I know there's alot of laptops out there and if it's hard for me to read with good eyes, I'm sure it's hard for others.
The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

Or the NoSquint extension: <br />

Some bookmarks won't do Inherit Zoom even after I edit them to Inherit Zoom
I have a PDF with many bookmarks, most of which are OK. But two of them won't use Inherit Zoom (even after I edit them and set it to Inherit Zoom).
I have two others that work OK when I click on bookmark, but when I link to them (TOC, for example), they don't use Inherit Zoom (even after I edit the link and bookmark to Inherit Zoom).
How can I deal with these four problematic bookmarks?
Thanks, ArtTry close all inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe up on the screenshot of the app you want to exit.
3. The app will fly off the screen -
Vertical zooming with toggle wheel?
Only been a few days but so far the most difficult thing for me transitioning into CS6 from 3.0 is the lack of vertical zooming with the mouse's toggle wheel in multitrack view. The sidebar just scrolls now--no zoom. I know there's a little button for that below the tracks but...its just not the same lol and it never zooms where I want it to. This is slowing me down like crazy and hoping there might be a way to enable that I don't know about. I'm not seeing anything about it in the forum or preferences in the program. I know it seems like nothing but for someone who's been using 3.0 nearly everyday since it came out this one simple thing is really difficult to get used to. I was perfectly happy dragging the bar for scrolling and zooming all in the same place.
Besides the muscle memory side of things--it seems like having to take your eyes off the multi-tracker to hit that button a few times instead causes one to 'lose their spot' so you can easily lose track of what your zooming in on in the first place. The bottons wont even zoom to the center its like its just some random spot that its zooming to. Having to look at the keyboard for the key commands (as another option) isn't any better for workflow and still gives me no control over the vertical zoom destination...I have to scroll through everything to find what I'm looking for (not cool when there's like 50+ tracks going) after I'm zoomed in only to find out I need to zoom in further and the process repeats. So at this point what used to be quick stroke of the toggle wheel is now a process lol.
IF no vertical toggle wheel zooming is there at least a way to control the location of vertical zooming? or at least the degree of it rather than the intervals provided by the buttons or key commands?Brevity being what it is...

Setting each Bookmark to Inherit Zoom is Painful!
Acrobat! I know you’re out there. Please listen!
Manually setting each bookmark to Inherit Zoom is painful! Literally!
My arm aches with each of the 8 clicks it takes to set EACH of the HUNDREDS of bookmarks in EACH document.
Please allow the one who creates Bookmarks to select what will be the DEFAULT for the document or for the application. I would dearly love to be able to set my default Bookmark to Inherit Zoom, what a fabulous time-saver that would be. And much less painful! I continually look for something to help me in this effort to no avail. I'm pleading with you to make this happen. My arms were not built to do this same repetitive motion for hours on end! It's pretty boring too, if it were not for the pain, I would be asleep.Achilles77 are you saying that in Acrobat X the default is back to inherit zoom? If that is the case, then all of the issues we have been dealing with in the earlier versions would be resolved. I have been experience the same issue in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro but since I am on an office computer, I can't load X until they authorize. Please verify that the default zoom for all new bookmarks is reset to "inherit zoom" and not "fit page width".
Thanks. -
WFM_CORE2PUBLISH Queue in SMQ1 of CRM with destination NONE
Hi,
In the Outbound queue of CRM, I can see the queue "WFM_CORE2PUBLISH" with destination as "NONE" & status as "READY".
Queue Name Destination Entries Status
WFM_CORE2PUBLISH NONE 33,611 READY
Why this queue is created? &
is this required ? or
if v delete this any impact ?
tnx in adv.
rgds,
baluHi Balu,
WFM_CORE2PUBLISH queue is required to publish WFM server data (like
assignments, requirements, resources, time specifications) to groupware.
Settings for this can be maintained at below customizing path:
"SPRO => SAP Customizing Implementation Guide => Customer Relationship
Management => Workforce Deployment => WFD Server => WFM Event Handler =>
Specify Event Handling for WFD Objects"
If you do not have groupware integration then remove the groupware
relevant settings from this customizing.
If you do need these queues, then please register the queue name in SMQR; htne it will process automatically rather than remaning in status Ready.
Best regards,
Brian. -

KishoreHi,
In the HTTP Receiver what is the Addressing Type used ? (URL Address or HTTP Destination).
If its URL Addressing Type, check if right Authentication Type is used with valid values and for HTTP Addressing Type check this HTTP Client Create Error, it could be helpful.
Also check if the Target system can be reached from the XI server to validate the configuration parameters.

One more nugget: Chart zoom with the "Mouse Over" effect
Hello all.
Just read my signature first, it might explain a lot. I do not intend to compete with Darren and I don't think this "nugget" (at least it supposed to be one) will amaze any of the LV veterans and this forum is rich of them. But maybe it will bring some new ideas to some of you or maybe it will be useful for some LV beginners (like me). It is very likely, my code will have some lapses, but please be gentle pointing that out to me. If you feel a need, you can always optimize the code and develope it further. Just don't forget to share!
So back to the point.
I am developing a project using LV. In my program there is a waveform chart which has to show 4 plots. Depending on the length of the X Scale, it sometimes gets hard to see the plots clearly because of their density.So I decided that I need a tool, which would zoom the chart in. And this is what I have came up with after a few "Google" searches to check which part of the bike is already invented and also a bit of programming by myself.
Maybe you guys (at least the veterans) know the BetterVIEW Consulting LV example where they have implemented the Mouse Over effect. So a part of their example has been used in this tool and part of the credit must go to them. I thank them a lot
This tool uses a cluster and its property of visibility to show/hide the cluster depending on if the current position of the mouse cursor is in the desired range or not. The program also gets the image of the chart and returns the subset of the image. The subset is taken for the area arounf the mouse cursor. So if you move the mouse, the zoomed in area will also chage in response. After that, the subset of the image is zoomed in for better view.
The user might chage the zoom factor during the execution. Also it is possible to turn the zoom option On or Off if you don't wish to see it for the moment.
This is how the front panel looks like:
And this is the image of the block diagram (see the attached files for the vi, the VI Snippet tool distorts the code too much, so I haven't added it):
I haven't found anything the same in the forum. Yet I'm a newbie here and I don't have that much experience surfing it. If it wouldn't be something new (in the forum, not necessarily to some of you personally), just ignore the thread. I hope this was worth your time and your attention.
Good coding
Message Edited by Giedrius.S on 02-11-2010 12:46 PM
While evaluating my code please have in mind that I am a LV novice. Therefore sometimes my code might violate some coding rules that I have to learn about myself. But how else could I do that...
Chart zoom with "Mouse Over" effect
Attachments:
Zoom.vi 198 KB
Mouse_pos.vi 20 KB
Check_pos.vi 18 KBVery nice Giedrius.
It takes guts to "step up to the chalk board" so I will do what i can to give you some ideas to think about. This is similar to the type of feedback I offer durring our in-house code reviews.
1) The floating property nodes outside the loop are not sequenced by wires so they could execute after the loop starts. Sometimes this could cause weird errors. Seq with the error cluster.
2) Property nodes can be re-sized so you can apply more than one property setting in the same call. Property node have to execute in the UI thread (which is single threaded) so using a single nodes will force a single context switch rather than one for each.
3) Setting the same property repeatedly in a loop just burns CPU. THe Scale min for both X an Y can be moved outside the loop ?
4) THe Wait Until Next ms" function does not get used in any of my code. It is not a way to get a fixed wait but rather a random wait. If you code completes 1 ms after the next multiple, the delay is double less 1 ms. If you have multiple loops using them and it f the delay for each are not unique prime numbers, then the "Wait until next ms multiple" is a good (cough cough) way of getting them all to wake up at the same time and fight for the CPU.
5)An Event Struture to monitor mouse enter/leave and mouse move (this would have to be a sepearte loop) is easier on the CPU than polling.
6) Is that math in the case to handle the Chart position on the FP? If so then using the property nodes for the chart to find its postion will let you code adapt to GUI changes.
7) Right to left wires are not well recieved.
8) A Bundle by Name is prefered over a "Bundle" since it is self documenting. I know the Picture function so I can see that is the rectangle you are specifying but reader not famliar with that function would not be able to "READ" the code without poking at it.
9) THe event structure would also help with setting the Zoom factor. Only poke it when you have to.
That is all that comes to mind at the moment.
Again thank you!

Error while creating the HTTP client with destination
Hi ,
I am getting this error while connecting to https location on receiver channel . The below error i am getting in SXMB_moni
Error while creating the HTTP client with destination
The receiver party is doing some security setting on there end and for that purpose we have provided the external IP address to them , after that we are getting the above error.
We have already installed the client certificate on our staging server , and have done the correct setting in SM59 and channel.Check few things..
1) I believe you use specify destination for the addressing type field in the comm channel. If so make sure you entered valid target URL address in the SM59 of type http destination.
2) Check the validitity of the certificate. You can import the certificate both in java and abap stack.
3) Make sure certificate is installed as expected.
4) Send the request and talk to the target system and check what error information they get in their log related to ssl. -
Function module call with destination
Hi,
how can check if a function module call with destination works or not ?
How can I debug.
What can be the reason if it is not calles
regards
ertas* to chcek the rfc Destination By pass RFC destination name and Connection Type..
RFC_CHECK_DESTINATION
or
RFC_CHECK_DESTINATION_ID
or
You can use this FM RFC_VERIFY_DESTINATION if your release is greater than 4.6C.
Check this sample code from Craig Cmehil's weblog.
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_VERIFY_DESTINATION'
EXPORTING
DESTINATION = TMP
TIMEOUT = 10
EXCEPTIONS
INTERNAL_FAILURE = 1
TIMEOUT = 2
DEST_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE = 3
DEST_SYSTEM_FAILURE = 4
UPDATE_FAILURE = 5
NO_UPDATE_AUTHORITY = 6
OTHERS = 7.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ '0'.

When I inherit Form with binding DataSet why then designer find mdb file in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'
Do I have to anything to change in my application settings or what I am doing wrong?
When I inherit a plain Form with no binding DataSet then is all ok.I finally saw my longingly expected inherited window containing binding dataset.
But only by way that I put mdb file right in to the this damn path.
"c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\Zdrojove Data\ISMS2003.mdb"
In addition mdb file shall be clear too of password.
We have many windows in our application and we have to work strongly good with inheritance of Form Classes.
But how I will explain to my Boss if he click on that inherited window and will see this break window?
Though I will advice to my Boss that hi have to copy too that MDB files to this damn path,
but the best way could be to find what I need to change that this inherited windows shows without copy this MDB files to
'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'
When I check the settings for DataDirectory every paths looks good.
Even if I set password for the mdb file I almost see only broken designer window.
Only by copy this MDB file without his password to this path
'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\'
I can see this inherited window right. -
The zooming with scroll wheel feature stopped working after I installed MAC OS X 10.6. Anyone have a suggestion about how to get that feature working again? Thanks.
Okay...did that too. We'll see. I appreciate your help.
Having a major printing problem though. Looks like I am going to be doing a lot of testing soon because the presents for my Canon iP6700D don't work like they did two days ago. Canon has a new driver which I believe is the problem. Maybe I can get back to the other one that worked like a charm. -- Sandy
