Making a break in a 'stroke' line?

I've created a big long 'stroke' or line (like a graph line). I want to be able to break it up into three segments ... meaning be able to cut that line in three places - to make three separate lines. Is there a way to make a break in a line, thus creating two lines?
It is an elaborate graph line made by hand; I'd hate to have to redo it. But I need to break it into hard copy printable size lengths.
All ears,
Ben

Replicate your line to get thee copies.
In the first one, remove the unwanted end.
In the 2nd one, remove the unwanted beginning and the unwanted end.
In the 3rd one, remove the unwanted beginning.
It's quite an easy task.
Next time, take time to think to the entire project before embarking in a no return process.

Breaking up a stroke & stroke styles

As you'll see from the attached I have a file with a double lined stroke. I'd like to "break it" (where I've placed a red square) to create space for an object. How do I do that?
Also, I'd like to experiment with playing with the space between the double line in the stroke. To do this, I thought you needed to go into stroke styles and create a new "stripe" stroke style and play with the space between the two lines with the slider. However, when I do that, I lose the width of my existing stroke and it becomes thinner on both lines. Is there a way to avoid that?
Thanks!

Other options for making the gap would be to use the scissor tool, or to draw the shape with the pen tool, leaving the gap.
Stripe style strokes are built using a percentage of the total stroke weight for each element. You don't set an absolute weight in the style definition. To have a wider gap with the same apparent line widths you need to apply a larger value to the stroke weight.

Too many stroke lines & need engraving font.

I've purchase a Roland GX24 vinyl cutter and using it to plot drawings (bought special pen). The problem is the areas that are solid black (especially the curves) are made of lines which are very close together, so when I go to plot they tear the paper and wear out the pen . I need to find a quick way of making this full of just little dots, I have created a live paint area of this group and trying to put little dots on them (anyone know a quick way of this as I choose 'effect', 'Pixelate', 'color halftone'. I think the dots are too big and will come across same problem with pen tearing, I want tiny dots spaced far away from each other or strokes far away from each other.
This only solves half the problem as the original work is still below it and when I go to plot it will do both so still going to tear the paper; I know what you''re thinking; just remove the old one below; but it is made of tiny little curves and strokes so I can't just simply select it, what can I do here please?
As if that's not the only problem , the text used is an outline and very small seeing as though they are blue-prints, the text blurs with the pen as the text is 'outlined', I need a quick way to turn this outlined text into single stroke text so it will be clean enough to read.
Any help is really appreciated, I have pain stakingly gone through and created my own symbols of text in a single stroke but this is no solution as have been here all day doing this and I have at least 20 of them to sort out. And there will be more comming.
Below is a jpg of pic I am talking about, any input is greatly appreciated.

I've purchase a Roland GX24 vinyl cutter
Dal,
I'm taking you at your word and assuming the GX24 is simply a cutter/plotter, not a printer.
The problem is the areas that are solid black...are made of lines which are very close together...they tear the paper and wear out the pen...I need...just little dots.
With little dots, you might not shred the paper, but you're still going to then wear out the pen with all that pen-up, pen-down nonsense, just to draw a bunch of individual tiny dots. That is crazy use of a cutter/plotter.
...I choose 'effect', 'Pixelate', 'color halftone'...
The Color Halftone Effect is a RASER effect. It generates a raster image (a color image consisting of pixels), not paths for your plotter to follow.
Cutter/Plotters are driven by HPGL instructions that in simplifed terms go something like this:
"Go to coordinates XY"
"Pen/Knife down"
"Go to coordinates XY"
"Pen/Knife up"
In other words, they are not printers; they are plotters. They scribe vector paths by using their stepper motors to move the paper and pen/knife carriage to cartesian coordinates. They don't see or paint pixels. They don't think of the page as one big bitmap to fill in with dots.
There are cutter/plotters which incorporate raster printing (some of the best ones from Rowland). But they cost alot more than the GX24.
In short, you are trying to make inappropriate use of your device. It really shouldn't be used to "color in" solid areas. If you must try to fill text paths, use a reasonably sparse VECTOR hatch or pattern fill.
You can experiment with pattern fills, but be forewarned: The results will depend upon the translation capabilities of the software you are using to drive the device. Pattern fills in Illustrator don't really "stop" at the edges of the paths they fill. They are merely masked by the paths. So your plotter software would have to be smart enough to draw only the un-masked portions of the pattern paths. I'm not familiar with your particular device, or with Rowland's recent software, so you'll have to experiment if you want to use Pattern Fills.
Generally speaking, what you want to send to a vinyl cutter (even one doubling as a pen plotter) is in principle very simple: Send it paths which describe EVERY mark/cut you want it to make and NOTHING more.
One method in Illustrator with which you could quickly make marks to "scribble in" outlined text is the much overlooked Scribble Effect. Read about it in online Help. Set all variations and curviness to zero. Set stroke weight to zero (there is no weight to a cut), and control the density with the Spacing setting. Expand the results. That will generate zig-zag vector paths in shapes to "fill in" your large text. Being diagonal, it may not be exactly what you want, but it can yield a nice "architectural" sketch effect.
...the text used is an outline...I need a quick way to turn this outlined text into single stroke text...
CAD programs are still (largely) stuck in the foregone decades of pen plotters. That's why they still use proprietary single-stroke text. (Many now support normal outline fonts, but many Engineering departments have never changed their habits, so they needlessly cause downstream users to devise workarounds.) Programs like Illustrator don't understand fonts that are not outlines. There are no open paths in the fonts that you use in Illustrator. Even text set at tiny sizes are outline paths. And there is no feature in Illustrator to reliably and neatly render text as open path centerlines. (Experiments with rasterizing text and auto-tracing it can yield legible results, but nothing I would call presentable results.)
I have often thought it would not be too difficult to write a Javascript for Illustrator that would effectively replace ordinary type set in a monospaced font with Symbols containing glyphs drawn as open centerlines, "drafter" style. But I haven't got around to actually doing it yet. (The same script could be used for fun stuff, like automatically coding messages in colored nautical signal flags.)
The general assumption, when using a pen plotter, is that the input is coming from a CAD program, and that small text will, therefore, already be open path centerlines.

Customer as Vendor --while making payment f110 how to deduct line item wise

Dear all ,
My Requirement like this please help me come out this issue.
we have 5 company code , we have created customer as a vendor.In one company code ,for eg(10000 is a customer and mean time same as Customer as Vendor(10000) in another company code.
Now we have raised customer invoice ,
For eg   10000 for fertilizer.
              10000 for Drip irrigation
              20000 some loan.
These transaction incurred in one company code.
In other company code these customer as a vendor ,
Here we have enter Vendor invoice,
For ex Invoice amount is 70000.
while making payment i want to deduct this amount from customer invoice amount.
like in 10000 for Fertilizer in that ,I want to deduct partial amount in line item level for different purpose.
How to deduct this amount .and how to map this scenario in the system.
Please guide me come out of this issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Girish.

Hi
vendor and same as a customer functionally is possible with in one company code. in that case you will be able to clear the customer open items when you are doing the vendor payment.
but in my knowledge this functionally is not possible with other company codes. as per your query you are maintained the vendor in one company code and customer in another company code. you want to clear the line items with one transaction in F110.
i think its not possible. becuase payments and receivables are with in company code.

Thick blue stroke line around object and text boxes

After I unlock and ungroup, there is a thick blue stroke around text and object boxes. Does anyone know what this is and how to get rid of it? Thanks!

Click with the selection tool on that object. The blue line will go away.
Meanwhile, it's there to let you choose a "key object" around which you can align objects.

Drawing brush stroke lines w/ tapered ends at any angle

I'm trying to match the style of an illustration done by someone outside my company; all the lines taper at both the ends like an actual brush stroke, but when I used the brush tools I have to change the angle to get the tapered look - is there a trick to this? It's not efficient to have to stop and change the angle of the tool for every stroke -

After you change the angle once, choose apply all strokes.
If that is not working, have you tried using profile in the stroke palette.

Price Breaks change when spliting line

Hi All
I need to know if the system let me control this functionality:
I defined Price Break (point) for an item-
quantity 1-19 price 20,
and quantity 20-100 price 10,
when entering this item to a SO line with qty 30 it brings the right price - 10
but when splitting the line to half the unit price changes back to 20.
The system looks at the sub line level and I want it to consider the SUM of the
items. Please let me know if there is any flag/ profile/ definition that helps
me control this

There is a field on order line level 'Calculate Price Flag'. When you keep this flag to 'Freeze Price', the price of lines will not be recalculated automatically. Hopefully this should take care of your requirement.

Making raw breakes in Interactive report

Hello
I have build an application, which is a grading system - it is going to be used for a competition.
In the main page of the application, I have an interactive report with all of the competitors, which are ordered by the highest marks they get.
The top six competitors are going to the next round of the competition.
I need to separate the first 6 rows of the report, from the rest of the report.
Is it possible to make a break after the first 6 records of the interactive report? May be by modifying a select statement?
Thank you for consideration.

Wow, it's getting harder and harder to read posts here. People seem to be very casual with their writing. I don't know if it's because the forum is multi-national or people have gotten used to "IM-speak" or what.
I'm just saying... How do people expect others to want to answer their question if they don't put in the time to ask it so it can be comprehended?
Sorry, that was my rant for the day.
As for answering your question, you would need to change your report query to add a column like this:
row_number() OVER(ORDER BY competitor_score DESC) AS score_rank
If you simply want to highlight those who go to the next round, customize the Interactive report to highlight rows where the score_rank <= 6.
If you want the IR to to Group By, customize the IR to create a calculation, where if the score_rank <= 6, then "Move Forward", otherwise "Going Home". Then have the IR group by that new column. Or enhance your SQL query to do it. Something like this should work:
SELECT d.*,
CASE
WHEN d.score_rank <= 6 THEN
'Move Forward'
ELSE
'Going Home'
END AS progress_groups
FROM (SELECT ...,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY competitor_score DESC) AS score_rank
FROM ...) d;
Good luck,

Lync 2013 Audio headset - Dialtone while making voice calls wich cause a line disconnection at the end

Greetings,
I've searched for information on this, but haven't found a solution. I am using MS Office 2013 64bit as well as MS Lync 2013 64bit. Server level team has migrated my
mailbox recently to Cloud.
I've noticed with Lync, when I connect my headset (Plantronics and Microsoft Lync), I get a dial tone. We do not have Lync connected to a phone system. It plays the
dial tone over Lync. The only way to stop it is to end the call.
The weird part that my colleague is using the same computer. If he logs into the system using his own username, he doesn’t experience this issue although he uses the
same headset which I am using and having problem with!!
Why is there a dialtone on Lync when I login to my profile? It's not even connected to a phone line!
How to I disable a dialtone from happening?
Your assistance with this would be greatly appreciated!

I am having a similar issue. Setup:
Windows 7 x64
Jabra Pro 9460 headset with Jabra Control Center 2.14.5888.0
Lync 2013 (15.0.4623.1000) MSO 15.0.4645.1000 32-bit
Setup to use Jabra
Cisco IP Communicator 8.6.1.0 (Cisco IP Phone)
Setup to use Jabra
When I start a meeting in Lync via “Meet Now”, I immediately get:
A dial tone on the headset
Cisco IP Phone move to foreground and a call is started
Lync’s Join Meeting Audio window is displayed
No matter which option is select, including “Don’t join audio”, the dial tone continues.
If I hang up the call on the Cisco IP Phone, the Lync meeting indicates:
“You have been removed from this conversation.”
I have used this in the past, before a rebuild to x64 when everything was upgraded, without this interaction.
Is there a way to stop Lync from manipulating the Cisco IP Phone?
Have deleted the profile as indicated as the Answer above…no help.

Trouble with format of files exported from pages as .doc - when opened on a pc they have extra spaces and pages breaks inserted after each line? Can be manually deleted, but defeats sharing purpose. advice?

Hi all, I have trouble with the format of files exported by email as .doc from pages - when opened in MS word on a PC or other device, they have extra spaces and pages inserted after each line - can be deleted manually, but defeats sharing purpose. Any advice? Not the most sophisticated user.

Got it. I tried booting with MOD_AUTOLOAD set to yes, and it was working fine. Looks like I needed to specify some more modules in my list.

Encoded picture breaking up with vertical lines (interlacing?)

I've exported a video (720 x 576) from FCE. It contains a lot of fast-moving action from an athletics event so I'd expect a bit of picture distortion on the version I've published to YouTube which you can see here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfUdF_D-I20&fmt=18
You'll see vertical lines appearing at certain points and I wondered if anyone knew if it was possible to avoid this happening?
I have a feeling it's something to do with the interlacing of the video. Would that be right?
Thanks for anyone's help.
Mark

David, I am of course referring to the HORIZONTAL lines. Clearly I don't know which way is up today, which is the result of a late night edit to get that film finished in the early hours.
When exporting from FCE, there is an option to deinterlace the source video. Should I check this box and will this solve the problem?
I'm not at home just now so I can't try it out until this evening.
Thanks for your swift reply.

Need help on breaking a large string into substringsto fit in a line

hii,suppose i have i have large string (the content of which is not apparently visible to me)which i want to show in a text area ,,,now how can i break it into multiple lines to be able view the total string...
i dont want to use horizantal scrollbar...
here i submit a sample code..and pls show me the neccesary modifications...
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class textarea extends JFrame
textarea()
super("Text area length test");
setSize(640,480);
Container contentpane=getContentPane();
JTextArea area=new JTextArea("Split panes allow the user to dynamically change the size of two or more components displayed side-by-side (within a window or another panel). Special dividers can be dragged with the mouse to increase space for one component and decrease the display space for another. Note that the total display area does not change. This gives applications a more modern and sophisticated view. A familiar example is the combination of a tree and a table separated by a horizontal divider (e.g. file explorer-like applications). The Swing framework for split panes consists only of JSplitPane.");
area.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
contentpane.add(area);

In the original code the Stron to be printed is not visible to me...

Configure the text area so that it uses word wrap (see the javadoc)
