Need Eclipse Tutorial Recommendation

Could someone point me to a good online tutorial that covers,
from a basic, non-geek perspective, using Eclipse instead of
Homesite to write CF code? Something along the lines of "Doing
ColdFusion With Eclipse for Dummies", or "Getting Eclipse to Act
Somewhat Like Homesite". If you don't know a good online tutorial
for "civilians", perhaps you can recommend a good book.
Many thanks,
Gwen Harrison

Have you looked at the tutorials on www.cfeclipse.org?

Beginner in need of book recommendation

I'm a beginner to CS3 Flash and in need of book or tutorial
recommendations. I have the Flash "Classroom in a Book" and it's
been somewhat helpful. However, a lot of what I want to do, is
import parts of a collage print from CS3 photoshop and animate
them. I am having problems with importing layers from Photoshop and
animating these layers in Flash. Are there any books or tutorials
that go into more detail on this aspect of flash? The other book
that I'm thinking about is Peachpit's Adobe Flash CS3 Professional
Hands-On Training. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lou

help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, the question makes perfect sense.
Fireworks is a graphics program. The HTML that Fireworks
produces is intended for prototypes - quick examples you can show
people to see if you're on the right track with a design. The
Fireworks HTML is not robust enough to use for a production site.
What you want to do is use either a program that's designed for
creating robust HTML (such as Dreamweaver) or learn to write HTML
by hand in a text editor. It isn't really that hard.
What you have now is a mess. It would be impossible to
maintain. Just looking at your file info%20links.HTML is a
nightmare. It doesn't need to look like that...and it shouldn't.
(Also, naming conventions. That %20 is what happens to spaces in
your file name. It's better to remove spaces or use hyphens
instead. Underscores are okay, but they tend to get lost if a file
name is also a link and becomes underlined. Use lowercase for file
extensions.)
Even if you have Dreamweaver or another Web authoring
program, you really ought to learn what it is you're doing. Check
out
this
earlier thread for some recommendations.
Good luck!

__How do I create a 3D, rotatable 'pillow' style bag in PS6 extended - need a tutorial reference please! I'm trying to make a frozen vegetable style bag (actually about 20 of them), grouped/positioned as if shot in a photoshoot...

You may be better off searching for a 3D model then trying to create one with Photoshop. IMO Photoshop 3D is a nice add-on but Photoshop is more an image processor with some 3D capabilities not a full blown 3D application.

Photoshop CS3 Book and Tutorial Recommendations

Hi there,
I am a beginner CS3 user. My main interest is in enhancing old graphic prints (not digital photography). By enhancing I mean changing colors, brightness, contrast, and sometimes redrawing a section of the original print. I typically scan the prints and save the images as tiff files that I then open in CS3. I'm running OSX 10.4.11.
There are numerous books on Photoshop CS3 on Amazon, but I am finding it difficult to make a choice. I would like book and tutorial recommendations from the Photoshop user forum community.
Thanks!
Al

I'll suggest a different tack altogether. As I'm a visually oriented, I find that being shown is far more effective than reading about things. Parsing intellectual abstractions (language) rather than dealing directly with the subject through imagery always seems like an extra labor... at least at the beginning until I have enough of a syntax built to enable contextual relevance.
With that preface I'd suggest you look at Deke McClelland's video tutorials now available online from Lynda.com. Start with "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: The Essentials' followed by "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: Beyond the Basics" and "Photoshop CS3 One-on-One: Advanced Techniques." After Deke's tutorials you will be prepared to dive into any of the many others Photoshop CS3 authors available on Lynda.com.
http://movielibrary.lynda.com/authors/author/?aid=98
When I first started Photoshop, it was so dense and alien that, even with several books to help, I considered myself only a beginner even after a year or so of intense struggle. Then I ran into Deke's training and felt that I made a huge jump in comprehension and skill set in a very short time. I would watch the training and during the first go would do the examples. After once through I would work with PS for a bit to let the training sink in and then watch once more followed by more work. After the third viewing, I'd absorbed almost all I was going to and Deke's jokes were old so it was time to move on.
The training on Lynda.com is very reasonably priced for the value of the training and I would suggest Deke's tutorials to any beginner as a more effective way to start than books.

Needed: Book(s) recommendations for beginner, needing to come up to speed for complexity quickly

Hello all,
I've been kind of thrown into the need to learn LV quickly. I've gone through the LV 101 videos, and got a decent start....but need to learn more in-depth quickly. I'm looking maybe for a book on amazon, that will get me as a noob started quickly...but also, something needed beyond just the basics of trying to explain the concept of the front panel and block diagram screens....
I'm needing to get into learning how to wire up things like even structures...being able to allow the user to right click an object on the screen, present a drop down menu, and change the object based on their selection. I've posted here before looking how to do multi-colored indicators..and starting to get a grip on some of that, but still not yet...
I'm looking at an example of an older version of the app I'm trying to create and improve on...and see how they were changing a boolean indicator (they used a round one, but was flat unlike the LED shaped ones)..but they were able to change the colors of the text and control with three different background and text combinations both when it was clicked, and programatically when a trigger was pressed...etc.
I'm seeing a structure they used called a "property node" and using colors under that to change it, it appears....I need to learn to understand that....but the application I have is a bit complex for me to track and figure out everything as it flows....
I thought I'd seen a recommendation for a book on this forum called: Labview for Everyone...but that is dated 2006...would this be too old since I'm working with LabView 2011?
Anyway, I'm looking through all the stuff in the NI site's Knowledgebase....but think getting a quality book that is a bit structured taking me from basics to more complex things would be the best way for me to learn and organize my thoughts.
I've programmed (awhile back) with Delphi for Object Pascal...and some java with Eclipse. But with Delphi, I have worked with an IDE...putting object on a screen, and then setting and programming properties...but LV is a bit different, and I'm just not familiar with all the objects available to me..and the graphical programming rather than writing code in there to handle things..is a bit new to me.
Anyway, hoping ya'll can give me some good book recommendations...and any links to web info greatly appreciated too.
Thank you in advance!!

cayenne,
without giving any special suggestion, i want to point out:
Even "out dated" books can give you valuable information since the programming paradigm of LabVIEW (dataflow) is still valid.
Ok, we have to admit that information on certain elements as well as esp. performance might not be true because of the changes LV had undergone over the years (e.g. compiler changes in LV 2009/2010).
Adding to this, i urge you not only to look for technical expertise but also on "how do i approach a development task". I find this link a helpful source for this.
hope this helps,
Norbert
Thank you for the reply. I'm looking at the link and it looks informative.
I went ahead and bought the book LabView for everyone. One thing however, I read in one review, that the book is light on the topic of event driven vi''s......which is something I'm definitiely needing information on....simple examples would be even better.
Any links or book recommendations on this particular topic?
Thank you,

Needed: system requirements, recommendations & best practices

I realize that this is just a beta release but I think it'd be nice if the system requirements for this VS.NET add-in were clearly defined in a single post/page.
For example, Christian Shay's reply to "Oracle Release Requirements" by [170516] indicates that "For the beta release you should be able to use Oracle Database version 8.1.7 or later." However, Christian's reply in the "Oracle DB 8.1.7 connection problems" thread started by [151631] indicates that "you'd need to upgrade to at least 8.1.7.4.1 for it to work."
Which is it??? I'm using Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.2.0 and I don't want to install this add-in if it's not going to work with my current environment. I realize I can download 10g but my employer is using 8.1.7.2 and that's my target DB for now.
In browsing this forum, I've read a number of posts with suggestions (such as installing the version 10 client in a new Oracle Home, etc.) and I think it'd be nice to see a basic set of requirements/recommendations/best practices in a single place for all to read.

Hi
Can you also include the following in the FAQ?
1) ODP.NET if installed prior to this beta version - what is the best practice ? De-install it prior to getting this installed etc ..
2) As multiple Oracle home's have become the NORM these days - this being a Client only should probably be non-intrusive and non-invasive.. Hope that is getting addressed.
3) Is this a pre-cursor to the future happenings like some of the App-Server evolving to support .NET natively and so on??
4) Where is BPEL in this scheme of things? Is that getting added to this also so that Eclipse and .NET VS 2003 developers can use some common Webservice framework??
Regards
Sundar
It was interesting to see options for changing the spelling of Webservice [ the first one was WEBSTER]..

Need a printer recommendation for a small office

hey folks, hoping someone might be able to suggest a recommendation for our business. We’ve had an OkiData color laser printer that’s lasted over 6 years but it’s been giving us some trouble over the last year and yesterday it stopped printing with an error we can’t resolve. Would have to bring a tech in to fix and we’d basically already decided that once this thing bit the dust we’d move on to something else. It’s time.
We are looking for something in the $200-$400 range, would consider going a little higher if it was clearly worth it. We want something that connects wireless, prints quickly and reliably in Snow Leopard over an Airport Extreme network, decent color print quality is important but doesn’t have to be photo quality (we have an HP Photosmart for that kind of stuff), and it needs to have reasonable printing cost per page. We don’t print a tremendous amount of stuff, but we probably go through 100-200 pages a day and it adds up.
Was looking at the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless and that looks like a nice unit except half the people who buy one hate it. Looks like HP quality control is lacking and if you get a good unit, great, but the odds are good you’ll get a lousy one.
Also looking at the Brother HL-3070CW, but reviews say it has a high consumable cost.
Basically, the more I look into this the more I head spins and now I've got myself wrapped around the axle and don’t know what to do.
Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

I would steer clear of the 500 express. Since you seem to be new to cisco products, I would use the opportunity and buy what most of your potential customers already have. Get yourself a pix/asa and a 2900 series switch as first poster suggested. If you are interested in certifications, you will need to learn the command line interface. The 500 express will do you no good as it is all gui. This is only my opinion of course. Oh, and did I see not expensive and cisco in the same sentence. :)

Need more tutorial to create graphical page

I need more instrauction to created page, like insert a link, images position, and styles edit, and the color, etc, is there any tutorial had more detail about this direction?
thanks

Hi,
all tutorials are up on otn.oracle.com/products/jdev

Need home theatre recommendations

Just purchased a new 50" plasma TV, (was a birthday present for my wife :-)) and am now starting the process of upgrading other components. Need blu-ray, DVD, audio refresh too (my receiver/amp combo unit is a 30 year old Kenwood!).
I am not going to spend mega bucks to do this... but want current technology. We mostly are TV watchers, but with new better TV will probably move into blu-ray now too. Have old DVD,s and would want the "upconvert" as well as a way to dock in and listen from iPods...
Some recommendations? From just reading through a handful of posts on this site, this looks like a great place to hear what's relevant! Thanks!

ahhh the I want the bang but dont want to spend the bucks......ok....entry level then........
DVD Player: Samsung BDP-1600 Can be had for around $150 online
Onkyo Home Theater In A Box (HTIB): Can be had online for around $400 to $500
Onkyo system will act as your control station. Cable box, DVD, Video game system etc would plug into it and then only 1 HDMI cord to the TV...save for alot of longs wires. All sources would upconvert.
Best deal is likely $550.....
Higher end is likely $700

I need a tutorial

I know this is possible, I just don't know how to do it.
All I want is to be able to set up my Dreamweaver on my
laptop (PC - Windows XP Home Edition) so that I can design and test
a coldfusion website, complete with DB conectivity (access for
now). But I just can't seem to do it. Is there a tutorial somebody
can point me towards - I could really use a step by step
outline.

hi yea thanks for the tip about coldfusion, me not aware
about any other
concept of using access in the home version of xp, if you
know of anything
else let me know.

Need graphics card recommendation

So I've just ordered a new model MBP 15" Retina, upgrading the 2.0 ghz i7 quadcore to 2.3, and doubling the RAM to 16 gb. This includes the 256 gb flash HD, and the new default config Intel Iris Pro graphics card (no NVIDIA graphics card). FWIW, I'll be plugged into my thunderbolt display (already own) for video editing.
The new MBP is of course a hefty hit to my pocketbook. Yet, I'm still torn by the notion that for $250 (I get the educational discount) I could go ahead and add the NVIDIA 750 2 gb card, not to mention doubling my HD (mainly to future-proof it - I only use about 122 gb right now).
Is it worth it or is Iris Pro good enough for FCPX, and presumably some Motion 5, Compressor etc?
I haven't edited in years, but I have just returned from Nepal, where I shot several hours of HD footage that I'm going to be editing together with stills for a doc. I'm a writer-filmmaker, so if it comes out as I hope it will, this will be a professional sample and festival submission. I have no clue how much use of Motion or After Effects I'll need to use - in fact I have no clue how to use these, but presumably I'll figure it out. Some of the footage has issues, it was all shot run and gun, so it could be I'll use that stuff a lot.
Do I need the NVIDIA 750 card or can I rest easy with just Iris Pro?
Thanks so much for advice either way!!
Andrew

I have a 2TB backup drive and a 6TB RAID network storage. I load new video directly onto the backup drive to save hard drive space on the iMac, then copy it to the RAID for safekeeping. I can wipe it from the backup when I'm done with it, and still have two copies on the network RAID. I consider this to be the minimum for HD.
I ended up with about five hours of AVCHD footage that I had to sort through to pick out the little morsels I needed, along with some .MOV files from a DSLR. I'm not sure how much space it took up when I converted the AVCHD into .MOV files, but I started out with about 650GB available (after clearing it off) and now I have about 150 GB. That includes what FCPX generated as I edited. I don't want to go below that 150GB level, as the processing performance drops. I keep the .MOV files on the main hard drive because that's the quickest access. I keep a sharp eye on the capacity.
Fortunately I did well enough on this project that it got me a lot more work. Unfortunately, if I decide to pursue it more seriously I know I'll have to get a better system. I'm already looking at the new Mac Pro with at least 32 Gs of RAM, the biggest internal hard drive available, and a massive Thunderbolt RAID. With the deadlines I've run into, it's the only way I'll be able to get things done without staying up until 4 a.m. waiting for stuff to transfer (I got this iMac just before they started coming out with Thunderbolt, darn it). If I had to choose, I'd get more hard drive storage versus more RAM. In my experience, 16GB does OK, but then I haven't had to render anything longer than ten minutes in HD.
If you use Time Machine for back-up onto the 1TB external drive, you're probably going to have to get an additional drive. I would recommend one to two TB depending on how big your final files are. If you decide to RAID that second external drive-- highly recommended-- then you'd need to get double that. Get a Thunderbolt splitter so you can run both of them at the same time. If you need to convert the RAW files, keep those on the second drive.
Very best of luck, and send us a link to the piece when you are done. -JB

Need a scanner recommendation for slides

(Not sure if this is the correct forum, but here goes)
Any recommendations for a scanner that will do slides? I've got my father-in-laws slides from the last 20 years and want to scan them, but can't quite figure what scanner would do the job. I don't need (nor want to spend $) on an auto feeder, but would like to be able to scan at least 4 slides at a time. I've got old photos and negatives that I'll be scanning as well, and would spend up to $400. Thanks!!

YMMV but I just finished scanning over 1200 color 35 mm slides from the 60's and 70's for eventual prinitng and use in my scrapbooks. I have an Epson 4870 scanner and I can scan 40 slides an hour using it. It works well. The price is a bit more, $440 or so, but the advantages are worth it.
If you have 2.25 x 2.25 glass slides you will have to build your own slide holder to scan them.
I got the scanner originally for a major scanning project for the local historical society of about 1500 5 x 7 glass plate negatives from the early 1900's. It's doing good archival quality scans of these materials as well as archival scans of our other historical negatives, about 2000 nitrate negatives of our local area. It's a low end professional scanner but IMO worth every penny.
For info on digital imaging help you might want to take a look here:
http://www.cdpheritage.org/
The best practices document on digital imaging is excellent for all the issues you will face and need to deal with. Geared towards historical collections it's still useful for personal stuff.
The Epson SW and scanner works well on the Mac. I just upgraded to Tiger, and it still is working, unlike many other items. <G>
I use Photoshop CS for histogram evaluations, image processing and thumbnail creation for the historical negatives but have just used the files as scanned for my scrapbook images.

Need a calendar recommendation

I've had my iphone for about a week and love it but I'm not a fan of the calendar that came on it. So I'm looking for app recommendations. I need the ability to set a custom repeat (ie every 3rd day, Tue/Thur, MWF). Syncing with a web-based calendar would be nice but not totally necessary since I have my phone with me at all times. If you have recommendations of calendar apps that will do this please share. Thanks in advance.

You're welcome!

ITunes Plus FAQs doesn't make sense: Needs a tutorial and clear instruction

Hi,
My wife and I have spent over an hour trying to "simply" purchase anything in iTunes plus and the FAQ's don't help. I haven't a clue how to do it, or would I really want to given the the Question (if I'm reading it right) "Can I still buy music encoded at 128kbps with DRM?" Answer: No.
If I won't be able to buy the usual iTunes music available at 128kbps that makes up the majority of iTunes music purchases (hardly anything i want is available in itunes plus) why would I want to cut myself from buying the larger available music source? I must have misunderstood this, but as we can't seem to find a way to upgrade yet, prices still reflect the itunes music, (no link to a plus version or a plus price) iTunes haven't exactly made upgrading songs transparent. I think they need to post a tutorial to show the process.
When I click on the itunes plus I'm presented with an album and 3 songs from my own library (not my wife's even though we were in that when we clicked on the upgrade) I guess I can upgrade those if I take up the special offer. But no information beyond that. No info on what that will do to her library, my library, future purchases not available in iTunes plus, etc.
Concerns about upgrading a library of a few hundred songs and being billed for all that is putting me off taking up the offer at the moment.

I'm not sure I understand your question. Tracks are available only in two formats: the "normal" format of 128 Kbps AAC with copy protection which makes up the bulk of the content on the iTunes Store, and iTunes Plus tracks (currently offered only on music from EMI and from a few independent labels) which are 256 Kbps AAC without copy protection. As of several months ago, the price for Plus and non-Plus tracks is identical and you don't have a choice of which you select; if a track is iTunes Plus, it will not be offered in the lower-rate copy-protected format (there's no reason why anyone with sense would not want their tracks as iTunes Plus).
So when you go to buy a track, if it's iTunes Plus, that's the way you'll purchase it and the only format in which that track will be available. You'll be able to tell by the "+" symbol next to the price.
As to upgrading, when you click on the iTunes Plus link and then Upgrade, the iTunes Store will then show any tracks you have purchased - and it's by the iTunes Store account you are logged into (it's based on the account's Purchase History), not the library currently in use that governs what upgrade options are shown - that are eligible for upgrade to Plus. Depending on what label released the tracks you bought, there might be many eligible for upgrade or only a few (or none). When you upgrade (and you have to upgrade all the tracks at once; you can't pick and choose), iTunes will give you the option of just replacing and deleting the old tracks, or replacing them and keeping them. If you choose the latter, iTunes will move the old versions to a separate folder.

Need JSP tutorial - EBS 11.5.9

Hi all,
I would like to quickly implement a few jsp query and data entry pages in my EBS 11.5.9 enviroment. Can somebody point me to a good tutorial or book that will get me up and running quickly? I searched for a local Oracle University class that would give me what I need, but didn't find anything...
Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
But as far as I remember there is only particular patchset version of 11.5.9 for which OA patched Jdeveloper is available, so if you are planning to work on OAF, make sure that you have the right Jdev, otherwise, you would not be able to develop OAF pages with Jdev, on 11.5.9
See old threads for the correct jdev patch for 11.5.9 with your instance patchset level.
