Multiple Bones Help

Dear Forum Goers,
I am new to flash cs4 and I so far love it! BUT, I can not figure out how to do what I want to do with a simple test project.
Here is the low down on it. I want to create a simple crane arm that has a ball and chain attached to it.
The arm is in four pieces a lower arm which has two bars and an upper arm which has two bars. The chain (which looks like a bar) is another piece and a ball (which is the circle) is another part. I want to have the two upper bars on the lower and upper arm have a pivot point and the same for the lower section of the arm also have a pivot point. I want the upper arm to have a single connection point between the two bars where the chain would meet and I want to have pivot points on the ends of the lower arms bars where it connects to the "control box". Attached is what I have scribbled together and also attached is a photo that highlights in pink circles where I want pivot points. I want to use bones for this because that is what I think I am suppose to use but if there is a better way to do it please fill me in.
The files are located at

If none or part of this is confusing please tell me and I will rewrite it.
Thanks
C, NFT

Are you telling me that no one knows how to use multiple bones on an object? Or is it just that the adobe forums are the worst place to ask questions because everyone comes here with their questions?

Multiple bone animations in a single export

I was wondering how to attach multiple bone animations to a
single model, or if it is even possible.
Do I just need to have duplicates of the model, each with its
own animation?
Is there any way to specify a range of keyframes within a
single animation timeline?
It would be nicer if each animation could have its own name.
Is there a way to import a motion independent of a model?
These are all just different ways of asking the same
question, I know
Thanks for your help!

hi,
follow this steps
Create your character
apply animations as needed using the power of Softimage XSI
and the =
animation mixer if you want.
put the animations in secuence
example:
frames 1-25 standing
frames 26-50 walking
frames 51-60 attacking
and so on...
after exporting in Director use the range of motion needed in
your =
events.
whichModel.bonesPlayer.play("name", looped, startTime,
endTime, =
playRate, timeOffset)
REMEMBER that startTime and end time are in miliseconds so in
XSI you =
need to change your units in preferences to miliseconds also.
or you can code it in director to have passed fps to
miliseconds
Hope it helps,

How to implement multiple Value Helps within the same Application ??

Dear Experts,
I want to implement multiple value helps in the same view.For that I have declared exporting parameters of type 'wdy_key_value_table.' within the component controller for each of the value helps.While I do activate and test the application I get the following error :
The following error text was processed in the system HE6 : A row with the same key already exists.
The error occurred on the application server hsdnt24s11_HE6_00 and in the work process 4 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE

I dont know how to implement multiple value helps.Need your help on this.
Regards,
Mamai.

Hi
Hint is : A row with the same key already exists it means , It is assigning the same value/Key to row and you are calling it at WDDOINIT so it giving error at the time of initialization .
Better way to do the coding at some event in view OR if not possible than just execute the first value help in wddoinit later clear all the value before gettig the other Value help. Code it at WdDoModify View to get its run time behaviour.

Multiple search help

hi all,
is it a possible to create search help with checkbox or something similar where user can chose several lines and return values
on scree ( several lines-intervals).
Similar situation is on logical base PCH when you chose object ID and have check box.

Hi Nick,
After creating the search help you can create a Search Help exit and in that you can enable multiple selection and the system will automatically display check boxes for you to choose multiple entries.

Well, after some tests I did, I understood that the variables have not be passed from the shoppingcart servlet to checkout. I declared the variables for 1 product (+productname+) ,not the array, as[b] hidden values in the shoppingcart servlet and when user clicked checkout button, checkout servlet was called and my db was updated succesfully. My problem is now, how all the products in the shopping cart can be successfully entered in the db because I receive only the last one product everytime I checkout. I think that I will probably have to declare the whole array of products and not the one string in my hidden values but I dont know how..
If you have a solution to this, please help me.. I m new in java and I have read a lot to create my code and build my project so every help will be valuable for me to continue...
Thanx again

Multiple profile help needed

I work for a company that requires me to connect to several customer Cisco VPNs via AnyConnect 3.0.5075.
Each customer site has provided it's own URL and certificate, etc.
How do I get Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client version 3.0.5075 to agree to multiple profiles?
I also would love some advice on how to add certificates to the tool without the "double click the certifiate" route. My laptop has an encrypted hard drive and when I try and "double click" the Cisco certificates the hard-drive encryption tool believes I am trying to add a certificate to it instead of to the Cisco VPN tool.
AnyConnect does not appear to have any editable/configurable settings for multiple profiles or to directly add a certificate.
I have googled furiously to no avail.
Any help available here? Even just to give me some bumps in the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
-Jim

Hi Jim,
You can have multiple profile bind to different certificates
For example
crypto ca certificate map mymap 1
subject-name attr cn eq Joe Smith
crypto ca certificate map mymap 2
issuer-name co SubCA1
crypto ca certificate map mymap 25
alt-subject-name eq [email protected]
subject-name attr ou co Sales
crypto ca certificate map mymap 65535
subject-name ne ""
SSL certificate mapping applies to both clientless WebVPN and AnyConnect connections where certificates are used. The certificate-group-map entries are processed in the order they are entered and appear above until a match is found. They do not need to be in numerical order.
webvpn
certificate-group-map mymap 1 Tunnel-group1
certificate-group-map mymap 2 Tunnel-group2
certificate-group-map mymap 25 Tunnel-group3
certificate-group-map mymap 65535 Tunnel-Group4
The certificate selection can be done automatically by enabling the automatic certificate selection in the XML profile
Hope this helps you.
Thanks
Raj

How to Edit with Multiple People - HELP

We used to be a small, 1-guy editing operation. But now we are huge (joke) and have 3 guys doing editing on an ongoing kids program.
I need some help with how to effectively edit the same program with 3 different people editing.
I assume that it's impossible for all 3 editors to edit the same project file simultaneously, right? That would be ideal as long as each person is working on a different scene, but even then, I'm sure it would introduce all kinds of problems.
So I'm left pondering the best way to edit one large program (1-hour in final length) between multiple people. The best method I've come up with to this point is to split my project up into 5 individual PP projects broken down by general scene categories.
That way each person can work on the "same" project/episode, but yet be working off of separate files, thus avoiding syncing problems.
But this only seems like a bandaide to our situation, especially if we bring on a couple more editors in the future.
Any suggestions on working on the same project/episode at the same time between multiple people?

There was a recent thread on similar issues. I don't have this situation (one man shop), but one aspect of the "import sequences" to a master gets my attention. I was starting to do this for my own projects (e.g. a season's worth of ball games where you want to do individual gamnes as well as a highlight of the season). One project for it all gets rather complicated, and it seemed simple to import key sequences into another project. But...
A) This is not a dynamic link, but an import. The whole project (or whole sequence(s) your choice) come in, inside a new bin. changes in the other sequence are not updated in the master, so you need to be finished in the imported sequence - or be prepared to import again and redo any transition work.
B) When you import, even though all the clips are from a shared pool, Premiere creates new instances in the imported bin. Even if you offline and relink (so you don't literally need multiple clips on disk), they are still multiple instances in the bins. As long as you don't plan on using work on clips in other sequences/projects, it really won't matter. But, for example, if editor A adds markers to Clip 1 in their project, and you import their project to the master project, Clip 1 in editor B's project imported to the master will not hve the marker set by editor A,
All logical really, but it limits this as a workaround to making Premiere work as a shared editor.

New problem rating image in Survey View when multiple selected - help!

When we are in Survey View, normally we can have multiple images selected and when we use any star rating it rates only one image (the best), but midway through an editing session it just started rating all images selected at once. I know that this is the standard way that ratings operate in Library (Grid View), but never before has Survey View (N) done this. We rebooted and optimized the catalog, but nothing has helped. Please let me know if you have any fixed or thoughts as to what the problem would be.

You are welcome Kevin.
Another thing I find helpful when rating or labeling, is to engage the Caps Lock. When a rating or label is applied by hitting a number, LR automatically advances to the next image in the filmstrip. This works in all modules.

Multiple backups help

Rescue and Recovery 4.50.0025.00, Widows 7Pro, Thinkpad W530.
I acquired this system in May 2014. It appears I have been backing up to two locations, my local C: and my USB HDD. I have been reading a number of posts* that likely relate. My question is what backups can I delete? In the basic version, it looks like I can delete any or all. In the advanced version I can only delete the USB versions. I have the scheduled backups set to the USB drive, but the incrementals and one original are on the C: drive. I would like these to all be on the USB drive. How do I make it do that? The Task Scheduler, mentioned in the first link, is set to L instead of U for the location, despite being set to the USB in the RandR program. Can someone help me sort this?

I will give you some RNR tips. Most of these tips are covered in many, many posts I have replied to about RNR.
Since you took a lot of time constructing your post, I will take my time to give up a GREAT response.   You found 2 posts I created or responded to. This is for you and all other forum users. One day I will figure out how to Teal highlight a screen capture.
.===
These tips are for Rescue and Recovery, NOT the one key recovery product that Lenovo also ships
=====
You state: I am not sure how this happened - "Your target backup location is set to USB..." scheduled backup location is Local.>>> This a bug in your RNR release. Anytime you change backup location to Second or USB, the task scheduler entry would always set location to Local. Until you did a VIEW Backups, you would not catch this bug.
Yes taking a manual backup (to second/USB) would work, then next scheduled backup would go to LOCAL.
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkVantage-Technologies/Rescue-and-Recovery-4-5-Incremental-backup-rev...
It took Lenovo from November 2011 until June 2012 to respond to the bug I identified day one of rnr 4.50, the version you have installed.
===
The simplied GUI backs up with different logic then the advanced menu. I never use the simplied menu. As you have seen with the delete panels. Also, RNR acts different if multiple partitions on Second/USB. Simplied panel chooses a different parition then the Advanced GUI.
===
RNR uninstall will delete \rrbackups folder on the C drive (and any backup sets inside).
After a RNR install, during the 1st run, the \RRbackups folder is created on the C drive. It will say take backup now? If your reply YES, it will take a FULL BASE backup to local (\rrbackups on C drive), since parms have not been changed.
===
During any FULL BASE backup, disconnect from the Internet and disable your anti-virus product. Run times will be cut in half. This assumes you are happy that no viruses are on your system.
===
New backup location (second or USB):
(1) It will populate the USB with standalone RNR, this will take several minutes.
(2) It will create \rrbackups folder (now you have 2; one on C; one on USB).
(3)It will take a FULL BASE backup. Some Index tables are stored in BOTH \rrbackups  (same table).
(4) Uninstall of RNR will leave USB \rrbackups file intact. If reinstalling same Version, all ok. If installing a NEW version,rename \RRbackups on USB to a differnt name. (no mix and match). The bootable files will self update. The first backup will be FULL Base backup.
==
Warning:
A USB-HDD vs a USB pendrive/stick/flashdrive. USB flash drives have a TOTAL similar/different set of issues with RNR. My comments are towards USB-HDD.
===
Backup to CD/DVD
(1) This will be a FULL base backup of your current system. \rrbackups folder NOT used.
(2) Disc 1 should be a CD. It can be a DVD. This is standalone RNR. When you run Create Rescue Media, it is creating this same CD.   This will be labeled BOOT.
(3) Subsequent DVDs are loaded with backup data. These you label 1C, 2C, 3C.   C=c drive.
You might see another set, backing up the service partition.
The last DVD used is called FINAL. It actually contains a dump of the index tables.
To do a restore from CD/DVD set
(1)Boot standalone RNR (disc 1). It will ask for FINAL dvd to load the index tables.
(2) Then will ask for 1C, 2C .... etc data files
(3) Upon completion, it will reboot to the C drive and boot up!
====
How many places can I find standalone RNR?
First and foremost, the standalone RNR MUST match the version that took the backup!!!!!!!!!!!
Anytime you install a newer RNR version be aware of which areas below got updated to NEW RNR.
(1) preloaded systems. standalone RNR is stored in the recovery partition/service partition/Q drive.
(2) For a system without a LENOVO recovery partition, the standalone software is installed on the C drive.
.... (1) or (2) boot up entries are changed to support PF11.
... RNR does not like Ubuntu or any other similar software installed. BCD, boot up confusion..
(3) If you backup to SECOND/USB, the boot software will be added or will self update during next backup.
(4) If you run Create Rescue media, the target device will contain Current RNR standalone.
This device could be a CD, Second HDD or USB-hdd.
(5) If you take a backup to CD/DVD set, the 1st CD/DVD is the standalone bootable.
Thus:
(1) If you use the dvd set for a restore, boot using the 1st cd/dvd. You could boot via pf11 to bring up standlone RNR. This will be the version on the C drive or in the recovery partition. It may or may not match the version that took the backup.   OOPS! is not a fun word when your restore wont work.
(2) If you create cd/dvd sets every 6 months, label CD1 with the RNR version installed at that time. Thus if your C drive has a newer RNR installed, you can still use your old DVD backup set from the past.
======
MAX backup incremental? What to set it too?
(1) The quick answer is 32. NEVER 3. The current version defaults to 16.
(2) The takes forever MERGE process. I will use your USB drive.
Base backup=30 GB incremental 1 is 9 GB.
IF max=3 hits, it will COPY the 30GB to a workarea blending in the 9 GB
It will then crunch on the \rrbackups folder updating tables.
It will FINALLY take your backup.
Newer RNR, I think, merges 1+2, base (0) not included.
(3)All my merges for years will pop up with a NOT ENOUGH SPACE on HDD for a merge, This is a bug.
It will fail over and over. Workaround: increase max incrementals number.
===
How should I delete older backups?
(1) the simple answer, NEVER delete a backup.
(2) If you delete a backup, start with the most RECENT incremental backup. NOT one in the middle of the pile.
Select it. It will take about 5 minutes to delete (not 10 seconds).
You can also take the top 10 MOST RECENT backups. It will take 50 minutes run time.
This does not use the merge function.
(3) It you delete in the middle of the pile.
It will do a MERGE!!!!! and run forever!!!!!! It must go through ALL the backup tables and make adjustments as to where all the files are now located.
==
\RRbackups is a hidden folder. If you want to peak inside you will have to change windows security(covered in another post).
===
My yearly all in one tips. They are covered in many posts out here.
===
Back to original post:
(1) RNR does not support backup to multiple USB( IT might). Newer versions added Device INFO to the tables
(2) better use of USB
usb 1 :with rnr on it.
usb 2: WINDOWS backup. also create a windows repair disc on CD/USB.
(3)windows 8 does not support RNR. Time to use windows backup. IT IS EXTREMELY fast. You could also take windows backups to both of your USB.
(4) Use other software to backup your personal files daily /weekly/monthly. NEVER rely on RNR to backup personal files. You need dual backups of data; Triple sets are best. OPPS! cd has a scratch on it.
(5) When my max incrementals approachs 32, I just delete the LATEST 16 backups, and wait 80 minutes for completion. What happens when 32 hits? It just merges away every backup run. I did test this. It actually creates 33. Bug?
(6) I have a 1 TB USB-HDD. Invest $60 or so (on sale), and get a large USB-HDD. Less headaches!!
Standalone RNR would not boot on the USB-HDD.   I copied loved data from the USB to my C drive. I did NOT copy the \rrbackups folder. I uninstalled RNR. I had to Format the USB using diskpart, SET THE PARTITION active. (This is covered in another Lenovo post). Reinstalled RNR. Backup to USB. It will NOW boot to standalone rnr.
This applies to Create Factory recovery media and rescue media.
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht002724
Your system might have a updated version.
(7)If your system is stable:
a. uninstall RNR. The C drive backups will disappear. (you could try deleting the top 10 backups before the uninstall t to see how it works).
b.Install latest RNR.
c. Take bi-yearly backup to Cd/DVD set
d. Figure out your USB device. If loved data, copy to C drive
e. Fomat the USB making sure partition is set to active. (another post)
f. Set max incrementals to 32. Change location to USB.
g. As time permits, add windows backups to the same USB.
h. You MUST test your disaster recovery plan. MUST MUST. Dont wait for HDD is smoked day.
..... back up to USB using RNR. backup to USB Take windows backup.
... back up ALL personal data to DVD or somewhere else besides the HDD.
...do not do this on a rainy day. Power outages dont help. Allow 5 hours for the test.
add a junk file to the C drive. Junk.txt. It should not be there after a restore.
....here we go. Restore your HDD using standalone RNR and your USB.
>>>> This is just my ideas for what you can do. Review the steps and find what fits for you.
>>>> The downside you will not have any backups from the past to use in case of software failure next week.
>>>>> except for the DVD set.
>>>> Just this weeks backup.

Multiple libraries help

I had an ipod nano and when i tried to add an ipod shuffle it copied my nano's library over. How can I give the shuffle its own library?

Hi Stacy,
The best way to create just songs for your NANO is to create a Smart Playlist for it.
Select each song, individually, in the Library that you would like to have on your Nano, and once it is selected, go up to the File and select "Get Info"
Select the Info tab in the Get Info box for that song, and under Grouping type in NANO then click OK
Repeat this for each song you would like on your NANO
Next, Create a Smart Playlist by going to the File option and selecting "New Smart Playlist"
Make sure that the "Match the Following Rule" is checked, and in first box, select the down arrow until you find "Grouping" and select that
Leave "contains" as is
In the next box type in NANO
Uncheck the "Limit To" box
Leave "Live Updating" checked
Click OK
Now, hook up your NANO to your computer, and under the Music tab for the NANO, check "Sync Music", "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and, genres"
Below, under Playlists, check only your NANO playlist and then Sync
Couple of notes:
You can change the name of your smart playlist by just clicking on it in the Playlists section. When it highlights purple, type in whatever name you'd like
As you add new songs to your library, you can always add them to your NANO Smart Playlist by going to the Get Info option under File, and simply typing NANO into the Grouping section. This will cause it to automatically add it to your NANO playlist!
I know this seems like a long set of instructions, but in the long run it really saves time, and also keeps your music where you want it to be. Smart Playlists can be applied to any of your devices in a very large array of combinations!
I am no music expert as far as this stuff goes, but with two people sharing the same library and multiple devices, I have found that this method works great for me!
Hope it helps you too!
Cheers,
GB

Anyhow, my brother would like me to create a website for him for his business. But he would like for this website to be located at www.hisbusiness.com. How can I create a 2nd website and have it publish to his own purchased domain name? Also, where do you recommend that he goes to purchase his own domain name?
Thank you so much for all of your help!!!

I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

Multiple- up help

For the last few years I have printed a 5.66x 11 pdf document 3-up ( 1-1-1, not 1-2-3) on 11x17. I am certain I used Acrobat Pro 9 to do it and it was easy. I have upgraded to Pro 10 and cannot find a setting that will work. Help please? I know it was in the print driver because I don't have a finished document from previous years, just the single 1/3 pages in my files.
Obviously it was so easy that I never concerned myself documenting how I did this yearly project!
Due date looming.. any ideas?
Acrobat Professional 10 printing through Micropress8 into a Canon 1135

Have you tried the following in the Acrobat 10.1.2 print dialog (it will be different for eariler versions of Acrobat X)? In the Page Setup select 11 x 17 for your paper size. Next, in the Size Options area, check "Actual Size" and uncheck "Choose paper source by PDF page size". Under Orientation select check "Landscape". Then under the "Multiple button" set the sheets to 3 by 1. You can check the "Print page border" to help you see each sheet on the 11 x 17 paper in the Print Preview.

Downloading Apps on Multiple Machines - Help PLEASE !!

Hi, new here so Hi Everybody.
I have an iPhone which is sync'd with my Windows machine at home, all works fine.
I am at work and wanted to download an App that was 150meg. The app is too big via 3G so bought it via my work PC (and paid £12.00 for it !!!) using the same account login details as home.
Now, I am trying to get this app on my iPhone but i am unable to do this without erasing all the current apps i have on my iPhone...
Can anyone shed any light on this ?
Have i wasted my money ? Or can i download this app on my home PC when i get home ?
Is there any way i can get it on my iPhone without deleting the other apps ?
Any help is greatly received.
Cheers
Demsie

Hi Demsie. You have 2 options.
1. You can transfer all the Apps on your iPhone to your work computer and then resync the phone. You'll need to be sure to only sync the Apps with your phone and leave all other options unchecked or data on the phone could be lost.. Syncing replaces the contents of your phone with the contents of the iTunes Library. If your library has no music and you sync Apps and music, then you'll end up with no music on your phone. But if that does occur, you can always resync the phone to your home computer.
2. You can download the App once you get home, and sync it to your phone then. You can download all Apps again for free, as long as you are signed into the account that was used to purchase it.
Hope this helps!

Newbie question on report design for multiple pages - HELP!

I am upgrading an existing accounting program to use Crystal reports. The accounting program generates account statements for our investors. Each account needs to have 1 statement (which typically is only 1 page long).
I have a table that has 1 record per activity per account. Every account has a unique code and the report is set to group records by this code. Therefore, an account can have 1+ records associated with it that need to be displayed in the details section.
To test my report I have 4 records in my table -- 2 records for account code 'ABCD' and 2 records for account code 'WXYZ'. The report correctly groups the records together and summarizes the necessary information, but it DOES NOT create a page break.
I don't understand what else I need to do in the designer to force it to create a new page everytime the account code changes... It's basically a mail-merge type functionality that I am looking for!
Any help is appreciated.

In the gray section to the left of the report design, right-click on the group footer for the Account Code and select 'Section Expert'. Turn on "New Page After". To prevent a blank page at the end of your report, click on the formula button to the right of the check-box and enter "not OnLastRecord".
