Measuring a letter (actual height and width)

Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way to measure the height and width of a letter (green line) without creating outlines, that is, maintaining it as text and not turning it into a path. I'm not interested on the height usually displayed (blue line). I'm aware that I could make a copy, measure and delete it later. But for my specific case this does not help.
Warm Regards,

I don't have a Twitter account. I've aways assumed that whatever they are, they must be intended for twits. ;-)
Nor a Facebook account 'cause if I wanted my mugshot somewhere, I'd commit a crime. Nor do I post videos on YouTube. If I wanted to do that, I'd put them on MeTube.
I guess I'm just not a "social media" kind of guy. But there's a vintage motocross race in Elko today; if you must, you can probably find me there this afternoon.
I'm aware that I could make a copy, measure and delete it later. But for my specific case this does not help.
The script Jacob refers to was written to enable one to change existing type to a particular capheight (based on the capital M of the font used), not to tell you the height of a given character. Plus, it does work by converting text to paths. That's the only way you're going to get a measure of the glyphs. And it dosen't measure width.
Type has no absolute measure. There is no "height of an E" until you set it to some height. So I can't tell what you are trying to achieve if it disallows setting the type (or a copy of it), converting it to paths, and then getting its measures--which you could automate with a macro (Action), without having to resort to scripting.
You're not likelly to get help from an AI Javascripter if you're not willing to explain exactly what you are trying to do. Script writing is too tedious and time-consuming to do as a favor just based on a guess at what the actual desired functionality is.

Dynamically changing the height and width of Stage

Hi,
          I would like to know how can I change the height and width of stage dynamically. I tried it with the following code:
                         Stage.height = 250;
                         Stage.width = 250;
during the run time. Initially the Stage is at a height and width of 370 and 450 respectively. Also when I tried to trace the height and width of Stage after resizing the stage width and height, its showing the old value of width and height. That means the width and height not chnaging. Anybody have any idea about this.

Hi Ross,
            I could understand something about the problem after making a research on this topic. We can't change the width and height of stage from actionscript itself, right? I will explain the way I am planning to do. I don't know whether its right or not. Anyway you just go through it. First the player need to be resized, according to the specified height and width. Then in the object tag, there are two fields named height and width. We should change these value according to the specified height and width of video controller, dynamically. Am I right? But I am confused with two properties of Stage such as: align and scaleMode. The code was actually developed my trainer. There, the scaleMode is set to "noScale" and no align property is used. My doubt is how should I set align and scaleMode properties of Stage. Hope you understood what I meant.

Force HTML5 Video 100% Height and Width ?

So stage is 100% height and width
the video div is also a 100% height and width
However the background video had spaces to the left and right where it isn't filling the div is there away around this to force it to fit a 100% width and height always leaving no gaps?

Hi there,
You mean stretch the aspect ratio of a video element to whatever size the container is? No, the video will resize to fit in the browser while still retaining its aspect ratio - this is actually desirable in most cases.
It is possible to do what you want using the object-fit css property, but it's currently only supported in the latest versions of Chrome and Opera browsers:

Dynamically read height and width dimensions of .mov

Hi there!
I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to dynamically get the height and width dimensions of a quicktime movie, before streaming it?
The circumstances are this. I have clients who upload quicktime movies to my server. Right now, I use code to embed movies in a fixed size page, but the movies can vary quite dramatically in terms of their dimensions. For example, if the movie is 400px wide, it looks fine in my page. However, if it is 800px wide, it extends out beyond the borders of my page and looks terrible. I could just make a huuge page, but then the tiny movies look ridiculous
If I could somehow gets the dimensions of a movie before it starts streaming, i could create a large target page for larger movies, and a small target page for small movies. Basically it comes down to being able to somehow dynamically read the dimenions of the movie.
Is this even possible? Like my boss keeps telling me, it's all just Math isn't it?
Thanks!!!

Hmmm...
I think the movie dimensions are exposed to JavaScript, but only after the movie has opened. So you would have to load the movie into the plugin, then get the dimensions, then use JavaScript to rewrite the page. Which I don't think is quite what you had in mind; you're wanting to collect this information and deal with it before you write the page.
Let me see if I have this straight...You are allowing clients to upload movies to your server, and then you're hoping to generate an embedded movie page on the fly in PHP to display the movie just uploaded, correct?
For a library of movies, you could generate a small database of all the movie dimensions, then just look that data up in the table when you generate the page. The trouble is, I don't know of any way to get the movie dimensions except to get them from QuickTime, and to do that you have to load the movie into either the player or the plugin. You could, for instance, have an AppleScript that looks at each movie and populates the database, but I don't see how you could trigger that to run on upload, and I don't know what kind of server you're using.
Now here's an idea...If you have some way of arbitrarily reading and parsing the QuickTime file, you can get the dimensions out of the file, but it isn't easy. If you are lucky, the moov atom will include a prfl atom (movie profile) which includes the video dimensions. But the prfl atom is not mandatory, which means you have to look at each trak atom that contains video and examine the size *and position* and accommodate the fact that you may have multiple, overlapping video tracks. But you could get the data by parsing the QT atoms yourself. All the data you need to do that is here:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/QuickTime/QTFF/QTFFPreface/chapter1_section1.html
...and may God have mercy on your soul!
Seriously, though, you CAN parse a QT file, and that might be the best (though obviously not the easiest!) way to get the data you want dynamically. QuickTime does help you out by giving you all the offsets for all the atoms, but it can be tricky!

Info panel/height and width

When resizing or dragging a guide out the info panel or the height and width box dimensions ar enot live. They do not change until I let go so it is either guess or manually type in. is there a preference setting for this? If not what is the fix. Thanks!

Well I am going to answer my own question if that is allowed. I know there are ratings and such for right answers but I figured out what was wrong/sort of. I closed out and rebooted then brought the program back up and ticked info in the window menu area and voila it is working. So a reboot has done the trick I think.

Boxes, Lines, Shading: BOX, POSITION, SIZE
Use the BOX, POSITION, and SIZE commands for drawing boxes, lines, and shading to print particular windows within a form or passages of text within a window in a frame or with shading.
The SAP printer drivers that are based on page-oriented printers (the HP LaserJet driver HPL2, the Postscript driver POST, the Kyocera Prescribe driver PRES) employ these commands when printing. Line printers and page-oriented printers not supported in the standard ignore these commands. You can view the resulting printer output in the SAPscript print preview.
Syntax:
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]

/: SIZE [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
BOX Command
Syntax
/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
Effect: draws a box of the specified size at the specified position.
Parameters: For each of XPOS, YPOS, WIDTH, HEIGHT, and FRAME, you must specify both a measurement and a unit of measurement. Specify the INTENSITY parameter as a percentage between 0 and 100.
XPOS, YPOS
Upper left corner of the box, relative to the values of the POSITION command.
Default: Values specified in the POSITION command.
The following calculation is performed internally to determine the absolute output position of a box on the page:
X(abs) = XORIGIN + XPOS
Y(abs) = YORIGIN + YPOS
WIDTH
Width of the box. Default: WIDTH value of the SIZE command.
HEIGHT
Height of the box. Default: HEIGHT value of the SIZE command.
FRAME
Thickness of frame.
Default: 0 (no frame).
INTENSITY
Grayscale of box contents as %.
Default: 100 (full black)
Measurements: You must specify decimal numbers as literal values (like ABAP numeric constants) by enclosing them in inverted commas. Use the period as the decimal point character. See also the examples listed below.
Units of measurement: The following units of measurement may be used:
TW (twip)
PT (point)
IN (inch)
MM (millimeter)
CM (centimeter)
LN (line)
CH (character).
The following conversion factors apply:
1 TW = 1/20 PT
1 PT = 1/72 IN
1 IN = 2.54 CM
1 CM = 10 MM
1 CH = height of a character relative to the CPI specification in the form header
1 LN = height of a line relative to the LPI specification in the form header
/: BOX FRAME 10 TW
Draws a frame around the current window with a frame thickness of 10 TW (= 0.5 PT).
/: BOX INTENSITY 10

POSITION Command
Syntax
/: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]
Effect: Sets the origin for the coordinate system used by the XPOS and YPOS parameters of the BOX command. When a window is first started, the POSITION value is set to refer to the upper left corner of the window (default setting).
Parameters: If a parameter value does not have a leading sign, then its value is interpreted as an absolute value, in other words, as a value that specifies an offset from the upper left corner of the output page. If a parameter value is specified with a leading sign, then the new value of the parameter is calculated relative to the old value. If one of the parameter specifications is missing, then no change is made to this parameter.
XORIGIN, YORIGIN
Origin of the coordinate system.
WINDOW
Sets the values for the left and upper edges to match those of the current window (default setting).
PAGE

How do I view the height and width of an image as I adjust the crop handles

How do I view the height and width in pixels of an image as I adjust the crop handles before I actually crop the image?

If you are in Photoshop CC, go into Preferences, click Interface, and turn on Show Transformation Values. In the picture below, setting it to Top Right means the pixel height and width appear to the Top Right of the Crop tool pointer.
(Edit: The picture only shows Height because the bottom edge is being dragged. If a corner was being dragged it would say H and V.)

Can I turn off the setting that displays the height and width in a little black box when using the marquee tool?

In Photoshop CC, on a mac...
When using the marquee selection tool, a little black box pops up next to the curser and displays in real time, the height and width of the selection. The same annoying box also appears when dragging an item with the move tool, displaying the numerical location of the cursor. Is there anyway to turn off the display of that little black box? It is driving me bonkers.

Under the preferences cmd/ctrl-k click on "Interface". At the bottom of the UI is a drop down box for show transformation. Set that to "Never"

How to change the height and width of a control?

Dear all,
is there anyway to change the height and width of a control?
In the property nodes, i am just able to read the bound values but cudnt write to it.
How can i set the bound values for a control?
Thanks,
Ritesh

Not all controls can be sized this way. For example to change the vertical size of a simple numeric, you would need to change the font size.

Dynamically size movieclip to fit text's string height and width

Hello,
I am trying to dynamically size a movieclip to fit the size of a text's string height and width (This text is inside the movieclip)
here is my code so far..
var Font1_ = new Font1();
var Format2:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
Format2.size = 36;
Format2.align = TextFormatAlign.CENTER;
Format2.font = Font1_.fontName;
var MessageBox:MovieClip = new MessageBoxMC();
MessageBox.Text1.defaultTextFormat = Format2;
MessageBox.Text1.embedFonts = true;
MessageBox.Text1.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
MessageBox.Text1.wordWrap = true;
MessageBox.Text1.width = 800;
MessageBox.Text1.height = 400;
MessageBox.Text1.textColor = 0xFFFFFF;
MessageBox.Text1.cacheAsBitmap = true;
MessageBox.Text1.mouseEnabled = false;
MessageBox.Text1.text = String("Use the Arrow Buttons to move");
MessageBox.width = MessageBox.Text1.width;
MessageBox.height = MessageBox.Text1.height;
MessageBox.x = 400;
MessageBox.y = 200;
addChild(MessageBox);
this isn't working for me.. anyone know the best way to do this?
I also want the text to be centered in the movieclip, with a border of around 2-4 pixels
I am also not sure if i should be using text.length? any advice and input is greatly welcomed.
thanks in advance!

Essentially, you need to check for a change in .textWidth or .textHeight, which are different from .width and .height.
This code works for me (assumes a background box called bg and a foreground text instance fg inside a moveclip and an X and Y bounds offset variable to say how far away you want the box from the text and a textFrameNudge to provide a tweak value).
     // Resize background box
     thisBox.bg.x = thisBox.fg.x - boundsOffsetX + textFrameNudge; // I'm using .4 as the tweak value for textFrameNudge
     thisBox.bg.y = thisBox.fg.y - boundsOffsetY;
     thisBox.bg.width = thisBox.fg.textWidth + boundsOffsetX*2 +textFrameNudge*thisBox.fg.getTextFormat().size;
     thisBox.bg.height = thisBox.fg.textHeight + boundsOffsetY*2;

How to resize and maintain height and width ratio IR image column

Hello, I am upgrading from 3.2 to 4.1 reports that include images in report columns. I have had good success with this except for one thing. If the height and width is fixed it distorts the photos, and if I do not have fixed dimensions the image may be too large depending on the original dimensions of the :P1_PHOTO item which is File Browse... BLOB column. I do not want to restrict users ability to upload large image files, or files with different dimensions, but I want them to display as a thumbnail size proportional to the original dimensions in the report, or maybe I need a different approach? Report region template is No Template. I appreciate any suggestions.
select decode(nvl(dbms_lob.getlength(photo),0),0,null,'<img src="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P1_PHOTO',id)||'" height="75" width="75"/>') photo from table.
I tried using percent i.e.: width="10%" that does not work.
I have tried several variations of <style> in page HTML header to change column width, but the image size does not change.
<style>
td[headers="PHOTO"] {
width:75px;
</style>
<style>
#apexir_PHOTO{width: 75px;}
</style>
Thanks.

Try to go with max-width / max-height. However, if you have IE browser, hang on for pain. For some ideas, some links:
http://wordpress.mfields.org/2011/scaling-images-in-ie8-with-css-max-width/ (ignore object-fit, it is not yet supported on most browser)
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3915219/max-width-on-img-tag-not-working-in-ie8
etc. Be sure to try out your chosen solution on the target browser(s)!
IE is just nasty :(
What i have done before is not to have my browser scale my images, especially when the images can be large(r) and you expect quite some traffic. All those extra (kilo)bytes won't help it load faster. I just added an extra column in the table, like photo_thumb, and create a scaled version of the uploaded picture when it is being inserted.
For example, i have the following process on my apex page, and i'm using wwv_flow_files.
Have some code:
IF :P3_FIND_PHOTO IS NOT NULL THEN
   DECLARE
     v_id number;
     v_small_photo blob;
     v_large_photo blob;
     v_mime_type apxt_contacts_img.mime_type%type;
     v_content_type apxt_contacts_img.content_type%type;
   BEGIN
      SELECT blob_content a, blob_content b, mime_type, content_type
      INTO v_small_photo, v_large_photo, v_mime_type, v_content_type
      FROM wwv_flow_files
      WHERE name = :P3_FIND_PHOTO;
      IF lower(v_mime_type) NOT IN ('image/jpg', 'image/jpeg') THEN
         raise_application_error(-20001, 'File for upload is not a jpg!');
      END IF;
      -- Rezise the photo so that it is proportionally 125*125
      -- ordimage is an oracle type able to manipulate all sorts of pictures
      ordimage.process(v_small_photo, 'maxScale=125 125');
      -- If contact is of type personnel, then no need to store
      -- a large photo since it wont be displayed
      IF :P3_CONTACT_TYPE_ID = 2 THEN
        v_large_photo := NULL;
      END IF;
      -- Delete previously uploaded picture
      IF :P3_ID IS NOT NULL THEN
         DELETE FROM apxt_contacts_img
          WHERE contact_id = :P3_ID;
      END IF;
      -- Insert the data into the contacts_img table as a
      -- SELECT from WWV_FLOW_FILES
      INSERT INTO apxt_contacts_img
      (contact_id,
       image_name,
       mime_type,
       content_type,
       filename,
       small_photo,
       large_photo)
      VALUES
      (:P3_ID,
       :P3_LASTNAME,
       v_mime_type,
       v_content_type,
       :P3_FIND_PHOTO,
       v_small_photo,
       v_large_photo);
      -- Remove the image from the apex wwv_flows_files table
      DELETE FROM wwv_flow_files WHERE name = :P3_FIND_PHOTO;
   END;
END IF;

Hi Mainak,
have a look to Thread:
Popup Sizing
As you can see there is not yet a way to set the Popup size.
You have to find the good combination of fields and length in order to get a nice UI.
The WDA engine try to set the best size, help it...
