Multiple views without instancing

Ive seen the question asked about this. and it doesnt seem to
be widely used. using multiple cameras diplaying multiple views of
one scene, at one time, without having to use instances. why so
many opt not to use it I dont know. when it should be used. on a
very standard basis. for those that play the playstion or xbox
systems. you have most likely seen a game where a second window
opens up. You can do the the exact same thing in shockwave 3d. so
why not use it. Say you have a character walking thru a house. and
the camera is following that character. You can take a seperate
camera, in a seperate part of the house. Showing another person
coming from behind the first person in a second window displaying
both windows at the same time. You can actually create mood and
atmosphere. There isnt a single shot in movies or tv that cant be
created in 3d and therefore shockwave 3d, be it split screens or
not. So why not use it. This is like if all the people that use
flash opt not to use flash video. when that is one of its strongest
features. well here is a very simple example of it

lot of the reason that most commercial games require huge teams and
huge amounts of funding. If we had double the time available (i.e.
funding) and double the team size for our projects, we would be
able to deliver much higher visual quality in terms of time spent
modelling characters and levels, and time spent adjusting and
improving visual routines.
Incidentally, the demo you posted is actually quite boring to
look at! Adding a second camera view of something that is already
very dull doesn't make it significantly more interesting :-)

the size is not so much of an issue particularly now broadband is
more widespread. But the number of dialogue boxes that must be
click through, the 'age request', the toolbar option, the redirect
to shockwave.com.... it's appalling and I am embarrassed when a
client needs to see that, when we pitch a shockwave game to them.
It's a
major hinderance to selling shockwave work to clients.
I
really don't understand how you think adding a second camera
view would inherently raise the 'standard' or make a project more
entertaining. In almost all cases, unless it was for some specific
purpose that was relevant to the project, I think the user would
think, "what's that extra camera view for?".

Complex Query - Joins vs Multiple Views

I am trying to run a query that joins a main table representing people with 7 others that contain demographic and status information. Some of the other tables don't have records or have more than one record per person. For the instances of more than one phone number for a person, I need to filter out all but the active home number record. If the person doesn't have a phone number, I still need a record returned, just without a phone number listed. I have tried joining all the tables in a single query, but can't get every person to show up in the results. If the person doesn't have a phone number, or has a phone number that isn't both active and "Home" then they don't show up... I got around this by using multiple views to make sure everyone was pulled, but the multi level view runs slow as heck... Here are the two approaches. Any ideas?
Here are the views that work:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW pinnacle_address AS SELECT p.person_id, a.line1 | | ' ' | | a.line2 | | ' ' | | a.line3 AS StreetAddress, a.city, a.state, a.zip FROM cmn_people p, cmn_people_addresses a WHERE p.person_id=a.person_id(+) and a.Active_Address = 'Y' and a.Address_Type = 'Home';
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW pinnacle_phone AS SELECT p.person_id, ph.phone_number, ph.phone_number_type FROM cmn_people p, cmn_phone_nos ph WHERE p.person_id=ph.person_id(+) and ph.active_phone_number = 'Y' and ph.primary_flag = 'Y';
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW pinnacle_people AS SELECT p.person_identifier01, p.last_name, p.first_name, p.middle_name, p.date_of_birth, p.gender, a.StreetAddress, a.city, a.state, a.zip, ph.phone_number, ph.phone_number_type, p.email, p.ssn, p.ethnic, p.fulltime, p.person_id FROM cmn_people p, pinnacle_address a, pinnacle_phone ph WHERE p.person_id=a.person_id(+) and a.person_id = ph.person_id(+);
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW pinnacle_student AS SELECT DISTINCT p.person_identifier01, p.last_name, p.first_name, p.middle_name, p.date_of_birth, p.gender, p.streetaddress, p.city, p.state, p.zip, p.phone_number, p.email, p.ssn, p.ethnic, p.fulltime, i.student_instance_id, e.comb_id FROM sss_student_enrollments e, sss_student_instance i, pinnacle_people p, cmn_statuses s WHERE e.person_id=i.person_id and i.person_id=p.person_id and i.status_id=s.status_id and s.status in('Active', 'Accepted');
Here's the single sql that doesn't:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW pinnacle_test AS SELECT DISTINCT cp.PERSON_IDENTIFIER01, cp.LAST_NAME, cp.FIRST_NAME, cp.MIDDLE_NAME, cp.DATE_OF_BIRTH, cp.GENDER, cpa.LINE1 | | ' ' | | cpa.LINE2 | | ' ' | | cpa.LINE3 AS StreetAddress, cpa.CITY, cpa.STATE, cpa.ZIP, cph.PHONE_NUMBER, cp.EMAIL, cp.SSN, cp.ETHNIC, cp.FULLTIME, si.STUDENT_INSTANCE_ID, se.COMB_ID FROM SSS_STUDENT_ENROLLMENTS se, SSS_STUDENT_INSTANCE si, CMN_STATUSES cs, CMN_PEOPLE cp, (SELECT * FROM CMN_PEOPLE_ADDRESSES WHERE Active_Address = 'Y' and Address_Type = 'Home') cpa, (SELECT * FROM CMN_PHONE_NOS WHERE active_phone_number = 'Y' and primary_flag = 'Y') cph WHERE se.PERSON_ID = si.PERSON_ID and si.STATUS_ID = cs.STATUS_ID and si.PERSON_ID = cp.PERSON_ID and cp.PERSON_ID(+) = cpa.PERSON_ID and cpa.PERSON_ID(+) = cph.PERSON_ID and cs.status in ('Active', 'Accepted');

Re: [SunONE-JATO] Re: How to use a tiled view without a model

I'm not sure what is different for you now. You still parse the string
and put it into a data structure. Before the data structure was a
vector, in JATO its just a model with a "hidden" data structure (a hash
map).
MVC only really comes into play when you talk about where your write
this code, and where the data structure is being stored. So really, JATO
takes care of half of the MVC'ness of it all (where the data is store).
You just decide where to be the code to populate the model.
Make sense?
Is there something different required of you in JATO in this scenario
that I am not grasping?

Thanks for the feedback.
The problem I was solving involved a single string, which contained
delimited subsets of information.
The string looked like
this:"time|analyst|description|time|analyst|description|..."
In ND, I parsed it apart into it's components (time vector, analyst vector,
description vector), populated the repeated.
With JATO, how would I make a model for something that doesn't have a
database component like this?
I'm pretty new to this MVC thing, so bear with me.

Subject: Re: [SunONE-JATO] Re: How to use a tiled view without a model
I guess the only thing "weird" (for lack of a better term) about what
you are doing is that your are populating the model on the "display
cycle". Typically, the cycle goes like this:
Request -> populate model -> update data store -> retrieve data to
populate model -> display data
some of the above steps are optional but hopefully you get the point I
am making.
So what you are doing is:
Request -> populate model/display data
If it works for you, then it's not necessarilly wrong. But I would
probably have my model populated before I forwarded to the target
(displaying view bean) or at a minimum, in the begin display event of
the view bean or the tiled view, but not during the iteration of the
tiled view.

Check out the docs for DefaultModel. There is an appendRow() method.
So get your tiledview's primary model (the tiledview's primary model

then model.setValue("fieldname", value) for each value.
Rinse, repeat as needed.

Pager app that can be viewed without unlocking the phone

I am looking for a pager app where the pages can be viewed without a person unlocking the phone or knowing the passcode to unlock. A doctor I work for wants his pages to come through to hs phone, but he doesn't want the nurses and others who check the pages for him to be able to go through his phone and see his personal information such as texts and emails. Is there any kind of app that would allow viewing of only the pages sent to him without unlocking the phone and giving multiple people access to any information in the phone? Currently, he just carries a pager as well as his phone which is not ideal. Thank you!

Hey guy;
I have the same problem and I do anything you can imagine. If you leave your phone about two or three days and after that plug in it your phone will be power on but your problem doesn't fix. I tried to restore as a new phone, reset all my settings and also I contacted Apple Support but I couldn't fix it. I think that it would be a software issue because it occurred right after iOS 6.1.3 update. It look likes that we have only two choice. First choice is waiting until Apple release next iOS update and check it in our phones, and the other choice is visiting an Apple retail store to diagnostic our phones for hardware issue.

I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book. All of a sudden I cannot access the book format to see the multiple view, spread view, or single view. I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos

I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book. All of a sudden I cannot access the book module and clicking on the multiple view, spread view, or single view does not take me back to the book I have been working on. I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos under collections. What I do see is a blank template for a new book and I can't find the unfinished book I started with 418 photos. It is like the new empty template is somehow covering it up. How do I get back to the book I have been working on?

Is it possible you mistakenly clicked on a [Clear Layout] button?
But a great hint is- Always click on the [Create a Saved Book] button, early in your new book design.
Then you have a permanent link to the book in the Collections panel. (In addition to the standard collection of your selected images)
Note: a Book Collection shows an icon that looks like a book.
Every time you come back to edit the book, open the Book Module by clicking on the white arrow that appears on the end of your Book Collection title. (The title as saved)
Re-opening a book without using the "Saved Book" option can have unpredictable results.
A "Book" Collection is like a "Smart Collection" because anything you do to the book design, change pages, change images, etc, is automatically updated in the Saved Book collection.

MVC �Best Practice� (handling multiple views per action/event)

Looking for the best approach for handling multiple views for one action/event class? Background: I have a small application using a basic MVC model, one controller servlet, multiple event classes, and multiple JSP views. For performance reasons, the controller Servlet is loaded once, and each event class is an instance within it. Each event has an �eventProcess()� and an �eventForward()� method called by the controller, standard stuff.
However, because event classes should not use instance variables, how should I communicate which view to forward to should based upon eventProcess() logic (e.g. if error, error.jsp, if success, success.sjp)? Currently, there is only one view mapped per event, and I'm having to put error handling logic in the JSP, which goes against the JSP being for just view only.
My though was 1) A session object/variable that the eventProcess() sets, and the eventForward() reads, or 2) Have eventProcess() return a mapping key and have the conroller lookup a view page based upon that key, as opposed to 1-1 event/view mapping.
Would like your thoughts!
Thanks
bRi

Your solution seems ok to me, but maybe the Struts framework from Apache
that implements MVC for JSP is a better solution for you:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/index.html
You should take a look at it. It has in addition some useful taglibs that makes life much easier.
We have successfully used it in a project with about 50 pages.

Consider adding the delete symbol to the Finder window tool bar. This way you can highlight all the photos you want to delete at the same time then hit the "delete" symbol.
Open a Finder window/View/Customize Toolbar - follow the directions in the customized pop down window.

NSTimer on multiple views

Hello everyone,
I am making a simple game with multiple views (levels) that involves a timer that counts down. I can't seem to figure out how to code the same timer into each of the views. So far I have only been able to get the timer to show on the first view.
Thanks in advance.

You can declare a int variable (e.g. int timePassed - in secs) in the AppDelegate (e.g: GameAppDelegate) - also make properties for it. You can init it in the mainViewController as follows:
GameAppDelegate *delegate= (GameAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
delegate.timePassed = 0;
Each viewcontroller (that uses a timer) will have an nstimer instance:
NSTimer *timer; (or something similar)
At viewWillAppear method you will init the timer as follows:
timer = [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:1.0 target:self selector:@selector(TimePasses) userInfo:nil repeats:NO];
In TimePasses method (each viewController will have such a method) you will update the label of the viewController using the timePassed from the delegate:
GameAppDelegate *delegate= (GameAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
timerLabel.text = (format the seconds from timepassed into a nice time output - e.g 70 => 1:10)
When switching to a new viewcontroller you have to invalidate the timer of the old viewcontroller and init the timer of the new viewcontroller. You will invalidate the old timer when doing the [self.navigationcontroller pushviewcontroller:newviewcontroller animated:NO] (you'll get an error if you already have invalidated it). Again in the newviewcontroller you'll have to init the timer as above, which will launch the selector method from it's own class.
I believe this is how it can be done, though if you want a single nstimer instace I don't know how you can switch the target/selector. You'd also need to declare the NSTimer variable in the delegate like the timePassed. Also if you need to invalidate the timer with other occasions you can also use a BOOL which will tell you if the timer is invalidated or active so you won't get a BAD ACCESS.
I hope this helps, good luck with your game

Basic question on multiple views

Just getting started in the world of cocoa, objective-c, etc. and have basically started by building a very basic app and slowly adding things to that app (however arbitrary and seemingly useless) to teach myself new things.
I initially started with a simple app that loaded a single view that had a couple of buttons (one plus, one minus) and a "total" label. All that happened was the total incremented/decremented by 1 based on the button you selected.
I want to try and hit on the idea of multiple views, so I've modified the code to only allow the user to modify the total within a range of 1-5 and have added a "Go To Page" button.
What I'd like to do now is set it up so that the user generates a number (1-5) and then selects Go To Page at which point I load a page (probably just with a label to confirm which page it is, i.e. "First Page", "Fourth Page", etc.).
I guess where I'm running into a mental block is how I go about changing views from within a view controller (where my response to my "Go To Page" button is).
I understand I could build all of my views (basically just my navigation view controller and one other "page controller" that I will create multiple instances of and set different label values on) in the App Delegate, but how would I go from my response method inside one of the controllers to my top level Delgate.
Again, I know this is basic stuff, but I'm learning and have had some difficulty finding answers to some specific things.
Thanks.

Hi jd & welcome to the forums
You may want to visit iTunes/iTunes U and download some of the iPhone developer videos...good stuff that will help you get a handle on using the touch screen and smaller space, etc.
Also, check the Apple iPhone Human Interface Guidelines...
The point I'm trying to suggest is that your 'block' about how to design and proceed may actually be your inner geek trying to tell you this is a new environment and you perhaps need a bit more time to come to grips with what is actually a new way of presenting data, etc.

Signing a document multiple times without saving it?

Hello all,
Can someone please tell me how do we sign a document multiple times without having to save the document after each signature?
For instance, I am a realtor and have to sign the contract about 3-4 times. However, when I sign it, Acrobat 8 prompts me to sign after each signature.
When I was using Acrobat 7, I could sign as much as I want and then save it. This is much more efficient and practical.
Can anyone advise me?
Thanks in advance.
Geo

Hi Geo,
It may be more cumbersome in version 8 (and 9), but it's safer. In version 7 and earlier when you signed, Acrobat did everything in memory. You weren't prompted to save the file to disk until you wanted to close the file. The problem is computer memory is where the bad guys get into to make changes. The majority of computer vulnerabilities occur when the hacker escapes the allotted memory space (aka buffer overflows) and reads and writes to memory address that they shouldn't be in. Think of memory being divided up like a row of houses along a block. The bad guy gets out of his house and into yours, and that's where bad things happen.
Beginning with version 8, signature operation all take place on disk, not in memory. It's slower, and as you pointed out it's more cumbersome, but it's safer. The file is committed to disk (the hard drive) before the signature is created and the signed bytes cannot be manipulated in the middle of the signing procedure.
Interestingly (at least to me), when we had this discussion four or five years ago when the change was made, the example used was of mortgage contact being signed where any of the terms could be changed in memory prior to the signature being completed. It was just a bunch of geeky engineers sitting around a table discussing possible vulnerabilities with the current signing operation (i.e. signing in memory). To see the theoretical example in actual use is kind of exciting (granted I don't get out much ).

Possible to have multiple views for one scene?

Away3D allows multiple Views to be created for one Scene, allowing different camera positions for the same geometry.
Can Proscenium support this? I've been banging my head against a brick wall for a while now...
Joe

Hi Kopaacabana,
(I feel like I'm in one of those post-apocalyptic scenes where the last two humans left on earth finally meet.....)
Thanks for answering!
Yes, I've actually got two cameras quite happily working in the scene, the problem is that I need to re-use the geometry for the scene in two windows, or at least, two separate parts of one window simultaneously. Away3D can do it very easily, where one sets up a 'View', which has a 'Scene' it views. With Proscenium it seems that the whole thing is tied up with an Instance3D, which is fine for one camera, but the scene nodes seem tied up as children of some root scene node. I've tried assigning the scene data as a child of two instances of BasicScene (hacking the stage3ds[number] to be different for each), but that causes an exception.
Just changing the activeCamera changes the view to the new camera, where I actually need to be able to render to two windows/screen areas from one set of geometry.
I would have hoped that the paradigm would have been 'here is some geometry, lights, etc., now do with it what you will'
Adobe, are you there to help us out, like, anyone at all? Are we wasting our time with this?
Joe

How to make an alert view without buttons on iphone?

Thx!

this is what i use. I added in an ActivityIndicator just for looks
UIActivityIndicatorView *loadingInd = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(120.0, 90.0, 30.0, 30.0)];

flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

I have had the same problem for WEEKS and I cannot access any sites that use Flash. Flash has been installed on this computer since I bought it in 2012. I have allowed auto updates but for weeks the updates never get past Step 2 - is this because I do NOT want the Google Tool bar? I use NO tool bars as there is only 6 inches of vertical screen space. Is this because I uncheck wanting Chrome as a default browser? It is already installed, I just don't use it. I came to this site and ran the check is it installed and the system says it is either not installed or not enabled. Version 14 just downloaded about 30 minutes ago - but did not progress to Step 3 although a pop up screen came up with a finish button, which I clicked. WHAT is the problem and how do I fix it? If this were just a compatibility bug between IE11 and Adobe they have had plenty of time to fix it.

How can I have multiple views for my question

When I posed a question on a forum, it indicates that I have one (1) view. How can I have multiple views on the same question?

I believe the number you are looking at is the number of times a particular thread has been looked at (viewed) by different users. When someone else opens your question, the view count should increase.
