Multiple objects into single emitter-possible??
Is it possible to have multiple objects turned into a single emitter to set different ranges, life, scales, etc.? Specifically, I have about two dozen text words I'd like to be able to turn into a single emitter as opposed to doing a separate one for each...thanks for any help!

Data Federator: Unioning Multiple Tables into single view possible?
Hi,
I have three different databases with tables containing a portion of the same kind of data and I want to union the three different tables together in Data Federator to present a single logical view that has the complete set of data. Is this possible in Data Federator? How would I go about doing that?
Note: I do not have keys to join the tables together on since it's not simply extending the data in one table with additional data in another table and doing an inner join on a unique key. Instead, for example, there's a customer table for Finance, a customer table for Operations and a customer table for Sales and they all contain the same columns (with maybe slightly different names) and same type of data. I want to effectively union Finance, Operations and Sales together in a federated/virtualized view so applications can just query from that view to get all the customers from the three different databases.
I have been unable to do this so far since Data Federator requires each table in a mapping to have a relationship with the other tables in the mapping.
Thanks for the help.
KerbyI figured out the original question using one mapping for each table but have a new question now.
Is it possible for an application to use the combined view from Data Federator to write back into the databases?
e.g. have an application use the target table in Data Federator and view the results, and based on that update the data in the underlying database that provides the data for the target table?
Thanks for the help.

Pasting multiple objects into frame
Greetings everyone
I was wondering if someone could shed some light on how to best paste multiple objects into a single frame.
Mainly, I'm trying to nest objects that form a part of a newspaper article header; since it's a design element that keeps repeating with each single article I don't want to spend time with manually positioning the elements each time--it's time consuming and prone to sloppiness.
Unfortunately, the base frame will have about three objects that need to be nested within it. Once I paste one object into a frame, the next time I do `Paste into`--the content (previously pasted object in this case) just gets overridden.
I've read that, to paste multiple objects into a single frame, one should group the objects first. Now this works pretty well for getting them into the frame, but leaves me with no options to position them relative to the frame. I can't move or position an object individually and I have no option to ungroup them once they've been pasted.
Here's a small mock-up to depict my peculiar predicament:
Ideally, I'm aiming to have the main header frame to fit the content of the nested objects and for it to be flexible enough that I can quickly span it across multiple columns as per article requirements.!kRON wrote:
For items that are part of the group, their (X,Y) location coordinates are relative to the document--neither to the group nor the parent frame. The group itself has coordinates that are relative to the parent frame (X+ offset, Y+ offset). I can select the group and the parent frame and use the align to selection options. For individual items, I cannot make a selection of both them and the frame, only between items that are part of a group. I loose options to align an individual item relative to the parent frame, which means I have to drag them around and rely on smart guides.
I've tinkered around some more and it'd appear it's not possible to lay out the elements as I imagined. So I have to resort to grouping the items that would form a frame and pasting them into a frame. If multiple frames have to be members of a single frame I'd have to group the frames and paste them into the single frame and so on.
Based on my layout mock-up, I'd end up with 3 frames within the header frame:
Article header
Heading
Article type
Separator
Article heading
Title
Footer
Author
Shape
Based on experience, should I go with this or stick with the old fashined moving around of loose elements? Will it be a lot of work to maintain resizing and repositioning of the various items and their frames once I start changing the width and height of the header frame or will it save me some time?
I'm not a working designer or production worker, so anything new takes me longer than I think it should, because I don't have a rich reservoir of quick methods at my fingertips.
Your description above interested me, because I've been wrestling with the annoying limitations of manipulating and adding compound objects in anchored frames. For many situations, it's probably simplest to assemble each iteration of a compound object, that introduces a new element, outside the anchored frame, then group the elements and paste the grouped object into the anchored frame.
However, the arrangement of elements in your example made me think that a table might be a workable solution. The answer I arrived at is "Yes, it's a solution, but it takes a while to set up." If it's reusable easily, then it might be worthwhile investing in a few experiments.
I've attached a zipped idml interchange version of the file, and also a PDF.
Here are some notes:
* I created a table with three rows and three columns, no header or footer rows. Three columns because I thought I'd paste a vertical line into an inline anchored frame in the center cell of the top row, for the separator line. Later, I realized that defining the vertical cell rule as paper color would suffice, so I merged the two right cells on the top row to create a two-column row, with text in each cell and the vertical separator between them.
* I merged all three cells on the second row into a single cell.
* I merged the two right cells on the bottom row, but later, when I moved the cell rule to position the triangular graphic in the inline anchored frame in the right cell, it moved the vertical cell rule in the first row. So, I had to unmerge (or split) the cells, and cut/paste the triangular graphic's anchored frame into the rightmost cell. To position the anchored frame, I moved the vertical cell rule with Shift+Drag, to keep the table width unchanged.
* I sampled the purple color with the eyedropper tool while cells were selected and the swatch panel was set to fill the selected object.
* I didn't spend much time matching the type, as you can see. To position the text, I adjusted the cell margins in some cases, and left/right indention in some cases; I'm not sure which is more efficient in situations where there will be different amounts of text to fit. I didn't create cell styles or paragraph styles (BAH! Bad, bad, bad process) because I won't be repeating this stuff, but you probably will benefit greatly from defining styles for your repeating needs.
* The triangular cut into the bottom row made it easy to manage creating and positioning the graphic. A non-geometrical object might be trickier. The triangle is a text frame, set to negative space above, so it overlaps the cell above it, enough to avoid a black gap.
* Except for the vertical paper-colored divider line, all the cells have zero-width strokes.
* I created the table in a text frame, that I fitted down to the size of the table, but I can't remember if I selected, copied, and pasted the text frame into the text flow to anchor it, or if I selected the table in the text frame, copied and pasted it into the flow. Not sure if it makes a difference in work efficiency.
If I understand your general needs, this should work well for changing text and adjusting the column widths.

ThanksHi,
That's called Pivoting . The forum FAQ has a section on this subject: {message:id=9360005}
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post your best attempt, along with a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and also post the results you want from that data. (You did post the results you wanted, but they're very hard to read because they're not formatted. Use \ tags, as described in the forum FAQ, below.)
Explain, using specific examples, how you get the results you want from the data given.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0). This is always important, but especially so with pivots.
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002} -

Apply multiple effects to multiple objects with single click box
I would like to click on a click box and have one object appear and another object disappear. I guess what I'd like to do is apply effects to multiple objects with a single click box. Is that possible?
Thank you.Welcome to our community
Sure it can be done but you won't use effects to do it.
When you insert an object in Captivate, you have an option to enable or disable Visibility. You also have an option to name the object. So you would give the object a meaningful name and clear the Visibility option to "hide" it until needed.
Then you would create an Advanced Action that would hide some objects and show others.
After that, you would assign the Advanced Action to a Click Box or a Button or some other event.
Cheers... Rick

To Combine Multiple STOu2019s into Single Delivery
Hi,
What are the configuration settings to be done to combine multiple STOu2019s into one single delivery in VL10B.
My requirement is to combine multiple STOu2019s contains different DELIVERY DATES and having SAME SUPPLYING AND RECEIVING PLANT into one single delivery.
Thanks & Regards,
Victor.Hi
Delivery in STO is created for single order and for same delivery date, same delivery no. for different delivery date and for multiple STO is not possible and its not logically correct,since after creation of delivery you will be doing picking and packing and Goods Issue.

If you understand how SQL statements are executed it's along these lines...
1. Open Cursor
2. Parse SQL statement and determine columns
3. Bind in any input values
4. Fetch data
5. Bind out values to columns
6. Repeat step 3 until no more data
7. Close cursor
Now, you're expecting that you can determine the columns (step 2) from the fetched data (step 4 onwards). You can't. The SQL engine needs to know the expected columns before any data is fetched so, it can't base the number of columns on the data itself.
If you need that requirement, you would need to query the data first and build up a dynamic query based on the data and then execute that dynamically built query to fetch the data and pivot it into those columns, which means that you have queried the data twice. Not good practice and not good (or simple) coding.
What you're talking of doing is something that should be handled at the presentation/interface layer, not as part of the data fetch.
Typically these sorts of things are handled most easily in report generation/writer tools such as Oracle Reports, Business Objects etc. where they fetch the data from the database and then process it to format it on the display, pivoting the results as required.
It's not something that lends itself to be easily achieved in SQL. Yes, SQL can do pivoting of data quite easily, but NOT with a dynamic number of columns.
If you were to specify that there is a maximum number of columns that you could get (rather than wanting it dynamic), then you can do it simply in SQL with the max-decode method...

Multiple deliveries into single invoice
Gurus,
My business requirement is like this,
Order is created and delivery process is done with PGI,but the material moves with manual invoice/DC,but the end of the week,all deliveries are compiled into a single invoice for particular customer.Wheares the header condition,business item remains same.When i tried to put all deliveries for the customer X in vf01 and execute,the individual deliveries cannot be convereted into into single invoice.When split analysis is done it says header is different,but to my knowledge all header ,business items are unique.Kindly help me at this ase- Try using Tcode VF04. Opt for delivery related billing active.
- Select the desired delivery in Billing due list. (Press Ctrl Key from keyboard to select multiple lines).
- Then you have 2 option
1. To click on Collective Billing button to do a collective invoice for the selected delv doc.
2. To analysis whether you will be able to a collective billing or not. To analysis that
- click on simulation button.
- Billing Doc Simulate: Billing Doc Overview Screen
- Select all lines.
- There first go for Logs, by pressing Log button.
- Then click on Split Analysis button to get split analysis.
- If you find any split reason and modify/adjust your copying control accordingly to do combine billing
- Finally, click on Collective Billing button to do a collective invoice for the selected delv doc.
