Moving and properly placing fields in a FormsCentral form

I've just started using this software that came with Acrobat XI and began designing a form from scratch. Moving and placing fields in your desired location seems to be quite challenging unless there is something I do not understand about the process. The primary annoyance is when using the left side handle to change the width of a field, all other fields above appear to be connected and all change widths together. Also, moving a field along a horizontal plane always ha sthat field snap back to its original position. Any help here?

All th fields in the first column in FormsCentral share the same label width. You might want to try to put the label on top if you don't like this behavior.
If you insert fields on the right on a form element then you can independently set its label width.
You can only put a form element next to another one. If you want more horizontal "spacing" between element you can resize it by increasing the previous element width. In the image below you can see what you need to "drag"to increase spacing.
Hope this helps

Setting and updating Date field in a jsp form

Hi:
I have a form (in jsp) where in I have a field for Date. The Date is entered in the form: 12/18/2002. I using beans to retrieve the form values and then pass to the program. THe date field is passed as String to the bean. The program changes the String to util date
(assignment ===> name of bean)
String strDate = assignment.getDueDate();
java.util.Date adate = null;
DateFormat fmt = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT,Locale.US);
try {
adate = fmt.parse(strDate);
System.out.println("Util date in Bo: "+adate);
     catch (ParseException e)
          System.out.println(e);
and before inserting into database, it is changed from util.date to sql.date.
long time = adate.getTime();
java.sql.Date sqldate = new java.sql.Date(time);
Until now everythign is working fine. On my way back, when i retrieve the sql.date from the database, I change it to util date:
java.sql.Date sqlDate = rs.getDate("dueDate");
java.util.Date uDate = sqlDate;
and then covert this util date to String
String strDate = uDate.toString();
When I display this string date on my form... it is in the format
2002-12-18, although i have inserted it in 12/18/2002 format.
Can anyone help me since i want my date to appear on the form in the format I enter (12/18/2002) and not the 2002-12-18 format of database

After moving and resizing control, some controls don't redraw properly as the cursor passes over them.

I have a top-level VI with three panes (two splitters). One of the panes contains nested tab controls. One of the tab pages contains six XY-graphs, a table and some decorations.
I use a subVI to resize and relocate the tabs and contained controls. All this is working fine, and everything looks fine after the resizing is complete.
The problem is when the cursor passes over certain controls (the chart legends and the table column headers for example), they redraw with gray boxes. The problem only occurs after enlarging the window from its minimum size. It goes away if the window is resized back down to minimum.
Anything that causes the window to redraw, like another resize or minimize/restore, properly refreshes the screen.
Has anyone seen this problem, and have a workaround?
The problem exists in development environment or built in LV 9.01 or LV 2010.
Thanks!

Thanks again for taking a look at my problem.
force redraw - This is apparently only available in LV2010. I did give at a try, but it did not prevent the problem, nor did it correct the problem once the gray boxes appeared.
disable updates (on a graph) - This apparently only applies to 3-D graphs, which is not what I am using in this case.
disable front panel updates - I tried disabling updates before moving/resizing the front panel controls, then re-enabling updates afterwards. The problem is exactly the same as before. Once the move/resize is complete, passing the mouse over the table column headers or the graph plot legend results in the gray boxes.
I would appreciate any other suggestions you may have.
Again... the problem is not that the moving and resizing don't work. They work fine. But once the resizing is complete, passing the mouse over the legend or table column headers causes gray boxes to appear.
Thanks!

Moving and Tilting the Camera for an optimum Lens Profile Creator image set

When framing the chart in different areas of the image frame, use a combination of physically moving and tilting the camera to achieve an optimal balance for LCP generation.
The following two passages are from the AdobeLensProfileCreatorCalibrationChartShhtingGuide.pdf
Page11/a -Move camera a bit to the left (so that when turning to the right to face the chart, it is about 10 to 30 degrees). Take a series of shots similar to the first three, above, except that the chart is framed at the center-left, top-left, and bottom-left areas of the image.
v. Move camera to the right, and do the same for the center-right, top-right, and bottom-right areas of the image
pg11/e - When framing the chart in different areas of the image frame, use a combination of physically moving and tilting the camera to achieve an optimal balance for LCP generation.
i. Only moving the camera to frame, so that image plane stays perfectly parallel to the chart, can have an adverse affect on LCP calibration data.
ii. Only tilting the chart may cause depth-of-field issues, where part of the chart may go too far out of focus due to the large angle of the chart in regards to the image plane. This can also have an adverse affect on LCP calibration data.
Does this mean to center the camera with the center/center shot so that the film plane is parallel with the calibration grid, then only use camera tilt on the tripod up and down for the top center an bottom center image. Then move the camera/tripod left (so that when turning to the right to face the chart, it is about 10 to 30 degrees) AND also pan the camera left to shoot the left top center and bottom image.
I think this combination of instructions have me stuck. Move left but not so much that the calibration target image is parallel with the film plane then pan the camera to get the desired framing.
Would I be correct to say - move left until the angel to the calibration image is 10-30 degrees and then use camera pan on the tripod to get the image framed properly. ... Is the desire to move as little as possible, or pan as little as possible, or to balance moving and panning in some way.
I am profiling a Nikon D7000/TAMRON 11-18mm F/4.5-5.6 lens and have a large target 36"x48" and read that I should shoot at minimum focus distance, 3x minimum, and 5x minimum which equates to 9.8 inches, 29.4 inches and 49 inches... I use this combo to shoot home interior shots at an focal distance of more like 10-20 feet from surrounding walls.. would I also need shots at (120 inches?) 10 feet?
I really (really) want to get the distance to subject and camera moving/pan combination right.
Please help.

There are a number of things darks/flats/bias can't remove: curvature, coma, pincushion, chromatic aberration. Some of those (pincushion i.e. showing stars on the chip in a slightly different position from their true position) may or may not be correctable with this sort of an app. It's possible using outside data (comparing the star locations in the image to their true locations in a catalog - that's a common astrophotography measurement and only takes seconds). Correcting curvature (differing focus off axis) chromatic aberration and coma (distorted star shape off axis) seem just what this app is about.
Printing a checkerboard on a nearby hill top sounds involved. Maybe I could get them to plough it in a regular pattern? :-)
The camera does not capture the data you mention. The images are usually in FITS format which has an enormous amount of data about the focal length, exposure time, amount of atmosphere through which you are looking, etc.
Calculating from the book value for the lens(es) camera chip etc would likely not be give a better result than the value obtained before correction. In some designs of scopes, particularly the most common ones, the focal length changes as you focus for example. The lenses and mirrors, comparing one scope to the next, are not perfectly identical.
But a dense star field would be something against which you could measure changes in star shape, focus, chromatic aberration and possibly even position. Once you figured out the parameters for your particular scope+corrector lenses+camera setup you could then use that profile thereafter.
I'd love to chat with that engineer I had heard you have one person who got a Meade SCT and started astroimaging just to learn the things we need and most astroimagers do use photoshop.

Address Book/iSync - email addresses moving to phone number fields

I'm not sure what is causing this, but I'm noticing that email addresses in my cards are moving to phone number fields. I originally thought this had something to do with cards that had no phone number in them, only an email address, but now I"m realizing that's not the case.
I fixes all cards last night and just a minute ago, when I was in Address Book I noticed some or all of the email addresses had moved again. I reverted to my backup from last night and it fixed things, but I'm wondering what's going to cause those addresses to move again.
I do use iSync to sync my AB contacts to my Motorola phone (I think I have it set up where it's one way, computer to phone) and I have Entourage that's using my AB contacts to populate its address book.
Any thoughts about what in my environment is causing this?
-John

Thank you for the suggestion. I did this, but noticed that some cards were still messed up. So I reverted back to a clean copy of my address book from last night. Then I went to iSync and synchronized with my Motorola phone. That's when iSync says that it's going to modify over 5% of my contacts in AB (122) at which point I said okay. Problem appears to be that the cards it modifies is random.
Now to make matters worse, it appears that if I repeat this process over and over (revert, iSync, look through cards), there is no pattern to which cards are changing. I don't even know how to troubleshoot this. I'd love make iSync go one way - computer to phone - so that the phone can never write information to the computer. Is that possible?
I'm sure this needs to go to a different section...

Moving and copying events and projects to an external hard drive using Imovie09-Source clip is missing

Some background on what I am doing is importing all of my home video into an event in IMovie. Since DVD's can only hold about 2 hours of footage, I am making a new project for each 2 hours so I can burn the footage onto a DVD. I want to make space on my internal hard drive so I am trying to move the projects that are completed to an external drive. Because I also don't want to lose any footage I have imported into the event I am also copying the home video event to the external drive. (didn't want to move it yet until I know what i am doing, just in case it is lost somehow).
I tried moving a project to the external drive (it was a slideshow for my daughters first birthday which contained photos and video clips from the event that was already copied to the external drive). The project did move to the external hard drive but on the video clips there is a yellow triangle that says source clip is missing. I am moving and copying from within Imovie and NOT the finder so I don't understand why it says the clip is missing when it is definitely a part of the event that is already on the external drive.
What is interesting is the source clip is missing error showed on the first birthday project but it did NOT show as an error when I moved the 2 hour home video project. (All of the video in these projects are coming from the same home video event)
I am trying to make sure that when I move the projects permanently off the internal hard drive and onto the external drive, that I am not losing any part of my projects. I want to be able to easily move them back and forth if needed without any missing files.
Any suggestions as to why I am still receiving the yellow triangle?

As I can't see what you are doing, I can't tell you what you might be doing wrong.
You could try trashing the preferences.
Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do using this free app.
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
1. Ensure that only FCP X is selected.
2. Click Trash
The job is done instantly and you can re-open FCP X.
There is absolutely no danger in trashing preferences and you can do it as often as you like.
The preferences are kept separately from FCP X and if there aren't any when FCP X opens it automatically creates new ones . . . instantly.

A/c assignment category and item category fields purpose

what is the importance of account assignment category and item category fields in po(me21n).what is the impact of that fields.

Hi,
Account Assignment category is a vital field in purchasing document & has many control functions and helps in determining the object that will be charged in case of an ordered material which is procured for direct usage or consumption. By using the
account assignment category in the purchasing documents the cost of the material can be apportioned to a single Controlling object or it can be apportioned among various Controlling objects.
The account assignment category determines:
a.The nature of the account assignment
b.Which accounts are to be charged when goods receipt is posted
c.Which accounts are to be charged when the incoming invoice are posted
d.Which account assignment data you must provide
Item category is vital field in the purchasing documents & has many control functions and helps in determining whether an ordered material:
a.Requires a material number
b.Requires an account assignment
c.is to be placed in stock
d.Requires a goods receipt (GR) and/or an invoice receipt (IR)
In addition to the above it is also used for differentiating the different types of procurement processes and the types of stocks including special stocks available.

Inventory Buckets as Slow Moving and Non Moving

Hi Experts.
I have an Requirement for Buckets in Inventory as Slow moving and Non Moving
Considering:
1) For 0 to 30 days 0ISSVS_VAL and 0RECVS_VAL as no movement and 30 to 60 days there is movement then consider Slow Moving.
2) For 0 to 90 days 0ISSVS_VAL and 0RECVS_VAL as no movement then consider Non Moving.
Considering:
Here I am taking 0VALSTCKVAL instead of 0ISSVS_VAL and 0RECVS_VAL because as it inflow and outflow.
So how can I create Buckets for above Requirement.
Waiting for reply
Thanks
Sunil

Hi,
For creating Buckets first need to Have Date Fields logiv 0 to 30 days based on what char's we need to consider like :
User entered date - Created date = Difference (0 -30).
Systems Date (Today's Date) - Created Date .
or do you have any calculated field in modelling which contains this data.
kfg might be any either 0VALSTCKVAL instead of 0ISSVS_VAL and 0RECVS_VAL .
Just need to create New selction/RKF based on those date Difference and restricting with existing 0ISSVS_VAL and 0RECVS_VAL.
Thanks.

We now use Acrobat xi for special active forms we created that include certifications and signature fields, some of the forms are programmed to create other forms, will we have a problem upgrading to DC
Our users use a form template to create other adobe forms with calculated fields, signature fields (using digital signatures)
, and buttons. Will we be able to continue developing these forms if we upgrade to Acrobat DC?

Hi Alex ,
In general ,you would not have any issues and problems moving to Acrobat DC .It has a different user interface and with more enhanced features .
You would be able to develop the kind of forms you are referring to .
You could refer to the following document to get more information about Acrobat DC .

Issue while moving from string to field symbol -- waiting for help

Hi Abap Experts,
At present I got stucked here at client place. Please help me . Thanks in advance.
I have a structure in field symbol. I also have data in the string (rec ty )
I need to move it to corresponding fields in the field symbol. While moving, it is giving a dump.
data:linetype type string,
struc type ref to DATA.
field-symbols: <fs> type any.
linetype = i_strucname.
" Get internal table and attach the field-symbol
CREATE DATA struc type standard table OF (linetype).
ASSIGN struc->* TO <fs>.
<fs> = string. (dump is occuring here)

Hi,
My code:
data:linetype type string,
struc type ref to DATA.
field-symbols: <fs> type any ,
<f1> type any .
linetype = i_strucname (Z structure)
" Get internal table and attach the field-symbol
CREATE DATA struc type standard table OF (linetype).
ASSIGN struc->* TO <fs>.
I need to populate the Z structure at runtime with the appropriate field values from the string.
for example:
input: abc \ \xyz
structure: first ffield length 10,   " MY Z STRUCTURE
               second field length 5
                third field length 10.
output: abc        xyz
I get the structures dynamically.

Can I have a pop down menu on the left and then text fields directly to the right? I can only get them to be one above the other.

Hi All,
I am building a form and would like to create a pop down menu on the left (and ideally with the options being colour boxes boxes but this does not seem possible), and then have three text separated text lines on the right of the pop down menu for notes related to the pop down choices.
Do you know if this is possible?
Thanks,
Matt

It sounds like you're creating the form in FormsCentral. You have limited options in the FormsCentral designer as far as layout. You can place multiple fields on a line, or one field per line. If you create the design/layout in a program like InDesign or Word, generate a PDF, and add the fields form in Acrobat, you have complete flexibility over the placement of the fields.
The items in a dropdown field are limited to text that are all the same color.

Itunes progress bar is not moving and music won't play. I also have no audio from my laptop at all. Any ideas? I am running windows 8.

Have had no previous problems with iTunes but for past two weeks my I tunes progress bar is not moving and music won't play.
I also have no audio from my laptop at all. Any ideas? I am running windows 8.

I'm having the same incredibly frustrating problem. I have 50-60 GBs of music and now literally ALL OF A SUDDEN most of my mp3s won't play in iTunes. Of the songs that do play, many of them sound garbled (almost as if you were listening to them underwater). As others have noted, the songs do in fact play properly in other media players (VLC, MPC, WMP, etc).
I feel like I've tried just about everything but I can't seem to fix the problem. Nor have I been able to find any viable solutions after hours of scouring the internet. Here is a list of the steps I've taken so far, in chronological order:
1. Closed/re-opened iTunes
2. Re-booted computer
3. Uninstalled/re-installed iTunes
4. Tried deleting songs from iTunes library and then re-adding them, but after dropping files into the library they don't show up at all, iTunes refuses to import them
5. Downgraded from iTunes 8 to iTunes 7
None of these things have helped at all and I am amazed that even after completely uninstalling iTunes 8 and then installing version 7 I'm still experiencing the same problem. And, on top of things, I've found that iTunes 7 is not recognizing the ID3 tags for many of the songs it does import.
My apologies for the length of this post. I just want to be specific and provide as much info as I can so that maybe we can find a solution to this thing.
So, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Key fields and non-key field of condition table

Hello Gurus,
what is key fields and non-key field of condition table?
thanks very much!

Key field
Each condition table contains keys that can be used for creating dependent condition records.
for example let take condition type PR00.
PR00 uses access sequence PR02 .
Access sequence PR02 has following tables associated with it namely 304, 305 & 306
When you create a conditon record for PR00 with transaction VK11 or VK31, you have a button 'key combination' which is nothing but fields associated with tables 304, 305 & 306.
In brief, Condition records are always created using specific keys. Condition tables are used to define the structure of the keys of a condition record.
Non key field
For example take condition table 144 - sales deal basic data.
Table 144 is associated with access sequence PBUD.
If you check the fields associated with this table (click technical view button), there are three fields at bottom which do not have 'key' check mark -KDATU, PLTYP, KSTAF
So, when you create a condition record for PBUD, system does not propose these 3 fields in 'key combination' and hence are non key fields.
Please reward points for good answers as this would help increase the total donation that SAP will make to the United Nations World Food Programme.

How to create popup window with radio buttons and a input field

Hi Guys,
Can somebody give some directions to create a stand alone program to create a window popup with 2 radio button and an input field for getting text value. I need to update the text value in a custom table.
I will call this stand alone program from an user exit.
Please give me the guidance how go about it or please give any tutorial you have.
Thanks,
Mini

Hi,
There are multiple aspects of your requirements. So let's take them one at a time.
You can achieve it in the report program or you can use a combination of the both along.
You can create a standalone report program using the ABAP Editor (SE38). In the report program you can call the SAP Module pool program by CALL Screen <screen number>. And then in the module pool program you an create a subscreen and can handle the window popup with 2 radio button and an input field for getting the text.
For help - Module Pool programs you can search in ABAP Editor with DEMODYNPRO* and you will ge the entire demo code for all dialog related code.
For Report and other Module pool help you can have a look at the following:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/47/a1ff9b8d0c0986e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any more details.
Thanks,
Samantak.
