Measuring length and width of objects

I want to use photoshop cs6 extended to measure maximum length and width of objects (like in the picture below).
Does anyone know how to do that? Is it also possible to do it automatically?
Thanks!

Would a measurement using the Ruler tool accomplish this? Trace over your green line with the ruler then read distance traversed between endpoints of the line in the ruler tool options bar.
You then could determine perpendicular width by rotating the image such that the green line is vertical.* Then measure width with a horizontal line.
* You can drag out a measure line on an image feature that should be horizontal or vertical, and then choose Image >
Image Rotation > Arbitrary. The correct angle of rotation required to straighten the image is automatically entered into the
Rotate Canvas dialog box.

Applescript to resize images by BOTH length and width?

I've searched for this, so please forgive me if I've somehow missed it. I'm looking for an Applescript that will resize both the length and width of an image. Ideally, I'd just like to save it to my desktop and drop images on it, resizing them to 250x166 pixels. Is this possible? I've seen scripts for length OR width, but nothing that will do both. I know, the images will be out of proportion, but for what I'm doing, that won't be an issue. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Your request is a little unusual, which may be part of your problem.
The issue is that, usually, when you resize an image you want to scale it proportionally to maintain the same aspect ratio. Otherwise you end up distorting the image in one direction.
For example, if your image is, say 250 x 84px and you just double the height to get 166px, the image will distort and probably not look like what you wanted.
So what you want is probably a combination of scale, crop and/or pad. Scale proportionally increases or decreases the image's dimensions. crop trims an image to a certain size, and pad expands an image's boundaries to fill the space. Anything more than that requires additional thought as to what you want the image to look like.

Get length and width of a rectangle

I am using sdo_sam.tiiled_bins to breakup rectangles into different sections. I need to divide the rectangle along the x or y axis depending on if is longer or wider. I checked the documentation and I could not find a way to get the length and width of a minimum bounding rectangle. Is there any built in functionality to get the length and width of a rectangle or do i have to create my own? Database is 11gr2.
Thanks
Rob

Rob,
You can use SDO_GEOM.SDO_MIN_MBR_ORDINATE and SDO_GEOM.SDO_MAX_MBR_ORDINATE to compute the length and width of an mbr.

thank you so much, also is there a way to make the whole background black?
for the entire page or for the box ?
If it's for the box, create a rectangular shape with black border and background then enter your text in the shape.

How to increase the size (Length and width) of check box

Hi All,
I have to increase the size of ( width and length) of check box, I have revised to check box topic in dev guide but didnt find any clue, i have also tried to use CCStyle class but that is also not working, I would appreciate if some can help me out on this. Thanks in advance , let me know if any clarification required.
Thanks
Pratap

Hi Pratap ,
I honestly don't know how to increase the size
But i am giving you an alternate solution : we can create two Images with check box type 1 ) with checked
2 ) with unchecked . ( you can create image of any size ) and get them displayed on OAF screen dynamically using switcher case .
Dynamically displaying image will give the illusion of check box being checked and unchecked .
keep this image moved to following media directory
eg : /oraapp/mfgtestcomn/java/oracle/apps/media .
Implement the switcher case , add the fire action to this Image Column , create a transient attribute and attach to this
column . Depending on the value returned by transient attribute display the image on the column .
Let me know if its not clear .

Graphics length and width in Smartforms

Hi experts,
I need to insert a logo in a custom SMartform. I have imported the logo as a graphic via SE78 and I have created a new graphic in my Smartform with the same name. All this is working pretty fine. The only problem is that I can not change the width and the loength of the graphic (these fields are display only for the graphic). I can change the resolution of my graphic, but that doesn't make it take the dimensions I would have wished.
Is there any way to change the graphics dimensions?
Thanks in advance

In you smartform, go to logo general attributes(tab), under technical attributes you change the resolution.Ex: 200 DPI or 300 DPI
Note: Width and Height are controlled by resolution.

How to make PDF file size smaller from an Illustrator file without changing the quality or size (length and width) of the file?

Is there a way to make a 30x42 size (40 GB) Illustrator file as a PDF but make the file smaller in size (able to email to clients) with out compromising the quality of the file or the size of the file?

If you are working in RGB you can embed a colour profile. Embed ICC Profiles is one of the Acrobat save options. It will increase files size dramatically.
When you save your pdf you can choose the compression method for placed images. Default is ZIP which is really no compression at all for pixel images. Instead you should opt for JPG compression (of varying degree according to how sensitive the images are to compression).
You should also examine the other Acrobat save options. To minimize file size you should not have any of the options checked (Preserve Illustrator Editing Capability, Embed page Thumbnails etc. etc.).
40 gigabytes for a file like the one you show is ridiculous. Did you maybe embed the placed images? If so, don’t. Keep them linked unless you really need to embed them.

Mounting 3 pairs of omron sensor E3X-F21 at 25mm intervals to measure time taken by moving object breaking beams and connecting to 6601 counter/timer card

System is Windows ME Labview 6.1 6601 Counter/timer card. 3 pairs of Omron Photoelectric sensors E3X-F21 are mounted on a flat surface and as the object passes the first pair of sensors it starts timer1 and timer2.
As the object passes the second pair of sensors it stops timer1 and as the object passes the third pair of sensors it stops timer2
We have a known distance between the sensors so we are able to calculate the objects speed and position.
We need a wiring diagram to connect the sensors to the 6601 card.

I think I can describe a method that'll probably be simpler than the previous answer because it won't require any external logic circuitry.
1. Configure two counters for "Two-Edge Separation" measurement, let's say counters 0 and 1.
2. Wire Sensor 1's signal to both AUX-0 and AUX-1.
3. Wire Sensor 2's signal to GATE-0.
4. Wire Sensor 3's signal to GATE-1.
5. Wire each sensors' 'ground' to the appropriate ground pins on your terminal block.
6. Software configure both counters to use "max internal timebase" for a source -- 20 MHz for the 6601.
You can specify the polarity of the transition you care about for both the AUX and the GATE signal, but I'll explain in terms of rising edges for both.
Counter 0 will count time from Sensor 1's rising e
dge until Sensor 2's rising edge. Counter 1 will count time from Sensor 1's rising edge until Sensor 3's rising edge. The count values will be in units of "# of 20 MHz cycles elapsed."
You can probably get a decent starting point on the software using one of the shipped examples.

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.

Hi Mindaugas,
While uploading using RSTXLDMC. You have to maintain your size of the logo.
Go through below mentioned document.
Upload TIFF files to SAPscript texts
Description
The report RSTXLDMC allows a TIFF graphics file to be uploaded from the file system of the R/3 GUI to a standard text in the R/3 word processor SAPscript. (TIFF is a registered trademark of the Aldus Corporation.)
When uploading, the TIFF graphic is converted either into a black and white raster image (parameter type=BMON ) or as a color raster image with a maximum of 256 colors (parameter type=BCOL).
The black and white raster images ( BMON) can be printed using the following printer types:
PCL-5 printer
PostScript printer
Kyocera PRESCRIBE printer
Device type SAPWIN (with SAPlpd 32-bit as of Version 2.41 for Windows NT or Windows 95)
The color raster images (BCOL) can be printed using the following printer types:
PCL-5 printer with color capability (e.g. HP Color LaserJet). Color graphics are not printed properly on monochrome PCL-5 printers (e.g. HP LaserJet 5), because the printer cannot set the color palette as required and does not perform any gray-level conversion.
PostScript printer (color graphics are automatically converted to gray levels on black and white printers using PostScript) Device type SAPWIN (with SAPlpd 32-bit as of Version 2.41 for Windows NT or Windows 95) During TIFF graphic import, the basic set " Baseline TIFF 6.0 " of the TIFF specification 6.0 is supported.
To maintain compatibility with earlier versions of the report RSTXLDMC, it is also possible to convert the TIFF graphic directly into a black and white raster image for a particular printer type when uploading. These are the three printer types PCL-5 (parameter type=PCL ), PostScript (parameter type=POST) and Kyocera PRESCRIBE (parameter type=PRES ). A raster image uploaded in this manner can only be printed using the appropriate printer type.
Besides TIFF raster graphics, direct printer commands in the respective printer language (PCL-5, PostScript or Prescribe) can also be contained in the file which is to be uploaded (printer macros). They are then transferred to the standard text unmodified.
The graphics are output by inserting the standard text into the document which is to be printed, directly or using an INCLUDE command. The printer commands, which for example draw a company logo on the page, are only output if the print request is processed by the printer driver corresponding to the macro type, otherwise they are ignored. Example: A macro of type PCL is contained in a print request. If the request is output to a printer with type HPLJIIID (to which the driver HPL2 is assigned), the macro data is sent to the printer. If the request is printed on a printer of type POSTSCPT (to which the driver POST is assigned), the output of the macro data is suppressed.
In the standard text, the printer commands are inserted between the HEX ... ENDHEX command lines in hex notation. Various report parameters allow the graphic or printer macro to be placed on the page or at the current text position. Note: When the /:HEX command line which precedes the macro appears in the text, a line break is generally made before the graphic is output. The output of the macro therefore begins in the next text line at the left window border of the current page window, as long as a shift to the right is not specified (see below).
If your own printer macros are uploaded and not TIFF files, you must ensure yourself that the normal (text) output of the driver is not impaired when the printer commands are inserted in the output from the uploaded file. The printer drivers pass the data contained in the file to the printer unmodified, therefore without control over the individual actions this triggers on the printer. For example, syntax errors should not be generated by the PostScript commands (type POST), or form feeds should not be contained in the file (unless this was intended) for PCL-5 (type PCL).
Restrictions:
In general, the output of graphics generated via RSTXLDMC from R/3 is not suitable for mass printing (that is, unless you are using the "Graphic resident on printer" feature): the R/3 spooler has to hold significantly more data in its output files. If the graphics occur several times in a spool request, the data also reoccurs. Apart from this, the network is more heavily loaded in sending the increased volume of data to the printer and the printer output is slowed significantly (varies according to printer model) if raster graphics are output as well as the text.
If your graphics reside on your printer during a printing job, the degree of 'correctness' with which they are printed depends on the amount of memory available in your printer. R/3 print drivers are unable to determine whether the amount of memory available is enough! If one of the graphics that you have marked as resident is not displayed, try reloading the graphic and switching off the parameter "Graphic resident on printer".
When printing black and white graphics on PCL-5 printers, image data is compressed in order to greatly reduce the file size.
The output of graphics and macros on PCL-5 printers, PostScript printers and device type SAPWIN (type BMON, BCOL, PCL, POST) is adapted to the page orientation used, that is if landscape is used instead of portrait, the graphic is also turned when output. This is not the case for the PRESCRIBE printers (type BMON, PRES)! With these printers, the graphic is not automatically turned when landscape is used, but appears on the page in the identical position as for portrait. You are therefore recommended not to output raster images when printing in landscape on PRESCRIBE printers.
PRESCRIBE printers do not support the resolutions 200 and 600 dots per inch when printing raster images.
Not all PCL-5 compatible printers support the resolutions 200 and 600 dots per inch when printing raster images.
TIFF graphics with compression type 2 ("CCITT Group 3 1-Dimensional Modified Huffman run length encoding ") can currently not be imported although this is a component of the Baseline TIFF 6.0 specification for monochrome images.
Color TIFF graphics with full color representation (ie. a lot more than 256 colors) are automatically converted into 256 gray levels when uploading with type BCOL.
When TIFF graphics are converted to black and white raster images (type BMON, PCL, POST, PRES) there is no default simulation of gray levels or colors of the original image on the printer (for example, by using different tones of gray). Each pixel of the original image is converted to a white or black pixel on the printer according to its intensity value.
The parameter "Number of TIFF gray levels" does, however, allow a simulation of gray/colour tones of the original image through levels of gray on the printer, when using type PCL, POST or PRES. This parameter is ignored for type BMON.
The conversion of TIFF graphics can be so time-consuming that it is recommendable to execute the report RSTXLDMC in batch processing. Note: in batch, the file is always read from the file system of the application server (ie. not from the file system of the GUI).
The length of an individual text in the text file is limited. When importing TIFF graphics with very large dimensions, especially if more than 2 gray levels are used, a termination can therefore occur when saving the standard text ("EXPORT_TOO_MUCH_DATA"). This restriction can only be avoided by reducing the TIFF graphics. Note: The display of a raster image in Postscript or PRESCRIBE format needs from two to three times as much space as displaying in PCL-5.
When processing very large TIFF images on PostScript printers, a print termination can occur with PS error message "limitcheck". In this case the internal memory of the printer is insufficient to scale the required raster image. This implementation limit cannot be influenced by changing the report parameters when importing.
Requirement
The file which is to be uploaded can contain the following formats/ commands:
Baseline TIFF 6.0 raster image files. The image information of the TIFF file is converted into black and white/color raster images when uploading. Note: As the TIFF format allows a variety of variants, only a basic set of TIFF 6.0 formats is supported here described in the TIFF 6.0 specification as Baseline TIFF 6.0.
PCL : PCL-5, Hewlett Packard Printer Control Language 5 for HP LaserJet 3, 4, 5 series and compatible printers. The data is output by the printer driver HPL2 only.
PRES: Kyocera PRESCRIBE for Kyocera laser printers. The data is output by the printer driver PRES only.
POST: Adobe PostScript or EPS format (encapsulated PostScript ) for PostScript printers. The data is output by the printer driver POST only. In the upload, one of the end-of-file markers (CTRL-D, hex $04) which may be contained in the PostScript file is not transferred.
For PostScript files which contain a bounding box entry (for example, all EPS files) the macro/graphic can be scaled to a size specified by the user. In this case, a small lead text and trailer are generated by the report for the macro data and inserted in the standard text.
Parameters of RSTXLDMC
File name
Path and file name of the file to be uploaded in the file system of the R/3 frontend (dialog processing) or in the file system of the application server (batch processing)
Type
Way which the data contained in the file is to be converted. Possible values are BMON, BCOL, PCL, POST and PRES. With parameter values BMON and BCOL, a TIFF 6.0 file is expected. This is converted into either a black and white raster image (BMON) or a color raster image (BCOL). These raster images are printer-independent and can be printed using various printer types (see above).
With parameter values PCL, POST and PRES, either a TIFF 6.0 file or a file with printer commands in the appropriate printer langauge is expected. If the file is a TIFF file, it is converted into a black and white raster image for the printer type specified in the parameter. The presence of a TIFF file is recognized automatically. If the file is not a TIFF file, the file contents are regarded as the printer macro of the respective type. Data loaded with type PCL, POST or PRES can only be printed on the respective printer type.
Resolution for TIFF raster images
Resolution which should be used when importing a TIFF raster image, in dots per inch (dpi). If an allowed value is entered here, this overrides the resolution information in the TIFF file. The allowed values are:
75 dpi
100 dpi
150 dpi
200 dpi (not for type PRES, for PCL only HP LaserJet 4,5 series)
300 dpi
600 dpi (not for type PRES, for PCL only HP LaserJet 4,5 series)
Changing the resolution affects the size of the graphic on the printer. If a resolution of 300 dpi is stated in the TIFF file and this parameter is set to 75 dpi, the graphic is four times as big when printed as at the outset.
Note: Kyocera PRESCRIBE printers do not support 200 and 600 dpi resolutions.
Note: Not all PCL-5 printers support resolutions 200 and 600 dpi, for example HP LaserJet 3 series does not, but LaserJet 4 and 5 series do.
Graphic Resident on Printer
Normally, graphics that occur more than once in a printing job (a company logo that appears on each page, for example) are sent to the printer repeatedly each time they are needed. In order to avoid this kind of redundancy, you can select this checkbox on the selection screen. The R/3 print driver then stores the graphic in the printer's memory and the printer retrieves the 'resident' graphic memory every time that re-occurs in your job.
Caution: Whether or not the printer correctly reproduces the graphic depends on the amount of memory available in the printer during the printing job! You should avoid using this feature with color graphics since they take up a lot more memory than monochrome graphics.
This parameter can only be used with types "BMON" and "BCOL".
Absolute positioning
Determines whether the macro/graphic is positioned absolutely or is to be output at the current text position. If this checkbox is selected, the graphic is positioned absolutely (parameters "X-position" and "Y-position" are used), if this checkbox is not selected, the graphic is positioned at the current text position (parameters "Reserved height" and "Shift to right" are used)
Absolute X-position
Horizontal position (space from left border) of the macro/graphic, if absolute positioning is required. This is the parameter XPOS of the HEX command.
Absolute Y-position
Vertical position (space from upper border) of the macro/graphic, if absolute positioning is required. This is the parameter YPOS of the HEX command.
Reserve height automatically
If this checkbox is selected, the system automatically inserts the actual height of the graphic during printing into the subsequent "Reserved height" parameter.
Reserved height
If positioned at the current text position, this parameter specifies the horizontal spacing to be reserved for the macro/graphic, which must not be printed with text from the paragraph. This is the parameter HEIGHT of the HEX command.
Shift to right
If positioned at the current text position, this parameter specifies the space between the left border of the macro/graphic and the left border of the page window. If this value is increased, the macro/graphic is shifted to the right. This is the parameter LEFT of the HEX command.
Unit of measurement for positioning
The unit of measurement in which the position values (X,Y, height, shift) are specified. Possible values are CM (centimeters), MM (millimeters), IN (inches), PT (typographic point = 1/72 inch), TW (1/20 point = 1/1440 inch)
Text title
Comment used for the attribute "Title" of the standard text generated as well as as a comment line in the text itself
Line width
Number of columns to be used in the standard text when generating the HEX...ENDHEX command lines. The default value is 132
Text name
Name of the standard text to be generated. If an * character occurs in the name, it is replaced by the value of the parameter "Printer type". For example, if the entry is ZHEX-IMAGE1-* and the printer type = PCL, the text name ZHEX-IMAGE1-PCL is generated. The default value for the name is ZHEX-MACRO-<printer type>, but the standard text can be named as required (take into account customer reserve). Standard texts are client-dependent!
Note: The name of a standard text can be up to 32 characters long !
Text ID
ID of the standard text to be generated. The default value is ST (general standard texts)
Text language
Language key of the standard text to be generated. The default value is the logon language
PostScript scaling
Flag which determines how the macros/graphics of type POST are handled. If set to 'X', the report expects a PostScript comment line in the file
%%BoundingBox llx lly urx ury (e.g. %%BoundingBox -1.5 0 21.4 14.1)
as present, for example, in all EPS files, in which the dimensions and the position of the macro/graphic are specified (if a bounding box comment is not included, 0 0 1 1 is assumed as the default value). This information is then used by the report to insert PostScript commands which scale the macro/graphic to the size specified in the parameters "Width" and "Height" (listed below).
If the flag is set to ' ' (blank), the PostScript file is transferred to the standard text without any additions (any transformations to the coordinate system used by the printer driver must already be contained in the file).
The flag must be set to 'X' for the import of TIFF files for type POST.
Width according to PS scaling
Required width of the macro/graphic if the flag PostScript scaling is set. Can remain at zero for the import of TIFF files, the size is then determined by the resolution of the graphic.
Height according to PS scaling
Required height of the macro/graphic if the flag PostScript scaling is set. Can remain at zero for the import of TIFF files, the size is then determined by the resolution of the graphic.
If you want to scale the PostScript graphic with these parameters, one of the two values, width or height, can be specified with zero. The graphic is then scaled so that the width-to-height ratio remains unchanged and the original graphic is not distorted.
Unit of measurement for PS scaling
Unit of measurement in which the parameters "Width" and "Height" are specified. Possible values are CM (centimeters), MM (millimeters), IN (inches), PT (typographic point = 1/72 inch), TW (1/20 point = 1/1440 inch)
Number of TIFF gray levels
Number of gray tones which are to be used on the printer for displaying the original image. Note: This parameter is only evaluated when using types PCL, POST or PRES!
Possible values are 2,4,9. With the default value 2, each pixel of the original image is converted either to a white or a black pixel on the printer. With the value 4, each pixel of the original image is converted on the printer with 4 pixels, which simulate 4 different gray levels. With the value 9, each pixel of the original image is converted on the printer with 9 pixels which simulate 9 different gray levels.
Note: With values 4 or 9 the resolution of the image is doubled or tripled. The restrictions on the possible resolutions (see previous parameter) then apply for the resulting resolution.
Output
Individual steps of the upload procedure are logged in the report list generated and, if necessary, errors reported. The uploading of TIFF graphics, in particular, is cancelled if there is a variant which is not supported. A message to this effect is then issued. If execution is successful, the report generates a standard text with the key specified in the parameters. If the standard text already exists, a window appears with a warning before the text is overwritten.
