Need help with landscape layout

Need some help. Tyring to build layout for a financial report. Each report will have 1) data block with company name, stock symbol and price 2) one or two line headline 3) two to three paragraphs of text and 4) large graph...I cant seem to get a nice layout which accents the company information and has enough space around the headline. . I tried putting the information block at top left, the paragraphs directly below and then the headline and graph towards the right side.
Doesn't seem to be working..... Any tips on setup/placement would be appreciated

Need help with Page Layout and Background Scaling

hello, everyone.
I am in the process of designing a new website for myself,
and while I was researching nicely designed pages to use as
inspiration, I stumbled upon this site:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/
obviously, the design is very impressive, but it also
incorporates a lot of web mechanics that I have been trying to
figure out, so I will use this page as an example.
one thing I need help with is backgrounds. as you can see in
the posted website, the creator used a seamlessly tiled paper
texture to display the bulk of his content on. also make not of the
pattern that is located to the left of the paper texture. how do I
create seamless backgrounds like this that will scale to fit any
amount of content or any resolution? I can't imagine that the guy
that made that site created a new size background every time he
made an update, so there has to be an easier way.
the second thing that I am having trouble with is general
site layout. I have read that most sites used series of invisible
tables to organize there content, but when I open the source of
this page in dreamweaver, he was using something different. div
tags? should I be using these? who do I use them? are there any
general layout tips that someone could pass on to me? perhaps a
link to a good tutorial?
please help me. i am very confused.
thanks so much.

IMO not a good site to emulate. To wit:
Top background image:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-top.jpg;
745px
x 350px 137K
Main background image:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-tile.jpg;
745px x 950px 130K
Total page size: 454K (Check here:
www.websiteoptimization.com)
Website usability experts routinely recommend a maximum page
size of ~80K
Check out the We We Scale @ www.FutureNowInc.com/wewe/ where
they suggest,
"You speak about yourself approximately 0,003 times as often
as you speak
about your customers. Might that have an impact on your
effectiveness?"
That is 100% consistent with the #1 Web Design mistake:
"Believing people
care about you and your web site." or to phrase more
expansively, "Our site
tries to tell you how wonderful we are as a company, but not
how we're going
to solve your problems."
www.sitepoint.com has some excellent books on making a
website actually
attractive and usable at the same time.

Need help with a Layout problem

I'm writing a game japplet, and I'd like to have the following layout:
1 JPanel that takes up the whole screen
1 JPanel on top of the first panel in the lower left corner
1 JPanel on top of the first panel in the lower right corner
What layout manager would be best for this system, or can I get away with just using setLocation()'s

For a game, using a layout manager could not be the good solution... for example, if you have to draw a game area of fixed size, it's incompatible with a layout management which could reduce or grow the area's size.
Personnally I would use the null layout solution... harder to code but much more reliable in this case!
Good luck for your game... ;)
Regards.

Beginner needs help with css layout

i'm new to using dw (cs3) and css, though i have some
background in html and coding. i'm creating a page using the "one
column elastic, centered, header and footer" layout and i have a
banner header with a horizontal spry menu bar at the bottom of the
header. the background color of the buttons on the menu bar is red,
and there's a yellow 5px border on the top and bottom of the red
menu bar, so it looks like there's red bar with yellow piping above
and below it, and this bar is between the header and body section
of the page. i've set these colors in the "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a"
rule.
now, the issue i have is that my menu bar does not extend
across the entire column, so there's empty space to the right of my
menu bar (between the end of the menu bar and the far right
column). i'd like the look of the red and yellow menu bar to extend
all the way across, but i can't figure out how to do this in css.
do i:
extend the menu bar all the way across the width of the page?
i can't figure out how to do this.
insert an image to make it appear as though the red and
yellow bar keeps extending to the right? if so, how will that image
remain elastic along with my page?
or is there a better solution?
i'm very new to css and i'm doing my best to figure out how
everything fits together. the last web site i built was in 1997 and
it was done in notepad. any help would be tremendous. i'm in
kinshasa, in the democratic republic of congo, and truth be told
there aren't a lot of dw gurus out here.
thanks in advance...

Can you post a link to your page, please?

I need Help with a website I've created

I need help with a website I've created (www.jonathanhazelwood.com/lighthouse) I created the folowing site with dreamweaver at my current resolution 1366 by 768. Looks great on my screen resolution but if it is viewed on other resolutions the menu moves and some of the text above and below. How can I keep all content centered and working like it does on 1366 by 768 on all resolutions. The htm to my site is below I started off with a blank template through dreamweaver CS5.

Look at all the apdiv's you have. Those are absolutely positioned layers. I'm assuming by your post that you are very new to Dreamweaver and HTML and CSS. I would highly recommend not using absolutely positioned layers until you have a better grasp on HTML and CSS.
Looking at your code I would suggest that you consider using one of Dreamweaver's built in, or downloadable templates as a starting point and work from there.

Need help with advanced applet

I need help with designing an applet as follows. Can someone give me a basic layout of code and material so i can fill in the rest or at leats give me some hints so i can get started since i am like no good at applets.
Design and implement an applet that graphically displays the processing
of a selection sort. Use bars of various heights to represent
the values being sorted. Display the set of bars after each swap. Put
a delay in the processing of the sort to give the human observer a
chance to see how the order of the values changes.
heres a website that does something similar

Need help with compression rates with Sorenson Squeeze 6, Compressor3.5.2

Hopefully somebody can help me with this...
I am running Sorenson Squeeze 6 on a Mac to try and compress some Apple ProRes 422 videos into an MPEG-2 file. The file will be played in a DirectX application, running on a PC with Windows 7. When being played it looks to be heavily compressed, and I need help with some of the compression settings.
Let me get more into detail...
So I have received a Quicktime .mov that has been encoded with FCP using Apple ProRes 422 compression at 720x486 , 29.97 fps, 40.29 Mbit/s , and the file size is 515.7mb.
So, this is the type of file I will have to compress into an MPEG-2, that will be playing on a...
1.6 GHz Intel Atom 330 Dual Core
NVIDIA GeForce 9400M Graphics
1Gb DDR2 800 Ram
32Gb SATA Solid State Drive
Windows 7 Home
Here is what I have done so far on my Mac using Sorenson Squeeze 6 :
I have brought the original file in and created some presets.
First off, I am encoding these MPEG-2 videos using an elementary stream type so I can mux the files using MPEG Streamclip...
Here is a screenshot of the settings I am using in Sorenson :
- I have changed many of the data rate settings as low as 3000 Kbps, and as high as 15,000 Kbps, and the end result looks essentially the same
- The audio isn't a problem, so I'm not going to address that.
- I have used the crop/deinterlace filter and also not used the filter, and it makes a big difference, so obviously it needs to be deinterlaced.
From there I will get the .m2v file and the .m2a file, and then mux those with MPEG Streamclip.
So, I have done 8 different Pre-sets all with various settings playing primarily with the data rate, and the method from 2-pass vbr all the way to 1-pass cbr.
So again, my end result that is playing back on the windows 7 box (the specs that are listed above) looks to be heavily compressed and pixelation occurs.
- I have also done the exact same with Apple's Compressor, and have gotten better results muxing while compressing, however the end result still tends to be the same, however the end result is much better. I have gone through 8 or so different compression export settings, and just overall still have the same issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

You are using a custom layout so my directions don't make any sense...
For the future, you can set this up in DVD SP's Preferences:

Need help with pagination for book

I am working on a book and need help with the pagination. I was able to make the TOC and front matter show the numbers as Roman numerals, and the body of the text as Arabic numerals, but I can't figure out how to restart the numbering sequence for the body of the text. So the front matter is numbered i-xvi, and the text is 17-681. I need the text to start with the number 1. Each subsequent chapter is a section break as well, if that makes a difference.
Many thanks,

Heed Help With Form Layout

Hi all
I am developing a j2me program that need display photos on a form like a photo gallery. I use image item to hold the resized photos on a form.
What I want is to display 3 photos in a row, like this
x x x
x x x
the programm is working fine on the emulator and nokia phone, but when I try on a Windows Mobile phone (HTC the JVM is Jbed) , It only display one photo in a row, like this
X

X
No matter what layout option and the size of photos, it only display one photo in a row
I really need help with this
Thanks

The only way to get more consistent behavior across devices is to use the low level API -- Canvas, not Form. You cannot interfere with device-dependent implementations of the layout of a Form.

Help with website layout

Hi, I need help with Dreamweaver CS4. I don't know HTML which
is why I am using this program. I am using the AP Div (Not the
Insert Div Tag) Icon at the top in the Standard Layout tab accessed
by the icon at the top of the panel in the classic layout mode.
Here is my problem. I am trying to make sure the text and
spacing is the same as much as possible from browser to browser.
The spacing between the lines (leading) is different. Sometimes the
text jumps out of the box or text lines get cut off and looks
jumbled. My pages are layed out with a bunch of AP divs so I can
place them wherever I want. For example I draw one AP div (which
has the square box in at the left top) and then another one below.
Even though they are not touching, the browser displays them
overlapping with the text clashing. Or sometimes text just runs
wild. I've tried to use tables but they are too limiting and I am
not being able to place them freely. Is that because browsers do
not recognize CSS? How do I get at least a decent consistency
between browsers? What am I doing wrong?

As well as the links below - another way to learn (including
anyone else's bad habits) is to find a page you like, and then tell
your web browser to show you the code view for the page and/or do a
"Save As" and save the page to your computer to then copy &
paste code segments into your file (in IE click View at the top,
select Source from the options)

Hi!!

When I compile this in Flex Builder 3 it says: The element type 'mx:Application' must be terminated by the matching end-tag '</mx:Application>'.
but I have this end tag in my file, but when I try to switch from source view to desgin view it says, that: >/mx:Script> expected to terminate element at line 71, this is right at the end of the .mxml file. I have actionscript(.as) file for scripting data.
This is the mxml code to terminate apllication tag which I did as you can see:

I know it's been a while but… did you fix this?
It looks to me like you are terminating the <mx:Application> tag at the top. The opening tag should end like this: resultFormat="e4x">, not resultFormat="e4x"/> (Remove the /).

Need Help With D&D Program

Hi, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post questions on this forum but I can't find anywhere to talk to helpful people about programming.
I'm making a dnd interface for JComponents. So far I've made a simple program that has a Component that can be lifted from a container and braught to the glass pane then later moved to anywhere on the screen and dropped into the container below it. Here's where my problems come:
1) Rite now my 'Movable Component' is a JPanel which is just colored in. I want to either take a Graphic2d from a JComponent/Component and draw it on the JPanel or change the JPanel to the component I want to paint and disable the component.
The problem with getting the Graphics2d is that if the component isn't on the screen it doesn't make a graphic object. I tried messing with the ui delicate and overriding parental methods for paintComponent, repaint, and that repaintChildren(forget name) but I haven't had luck getting a good graphics object. I was thinking of, at the beginning of running the program, putting 1 of each component onto the screen for a second then removing it but I'd rather not. I'd also like to change the graphics dynamicly if someone stretches the component there dropping and what not.
The problem with disabling is that it changes some of the visual features of Components. I want to be able to update the Component myself to change how it looks and I don't want disabling to gray out components.
I mainly just dont want the components to do any of there normal fuctions. This is for a page builder, by the way.
Another problem I'm having is that mouseMotionListener is allowing me to select 2 components that are on top of one another when there edges are near each other. I don't know if theres a fix to this other than changing the Java Class.
My next problem is a drop layout manager, but I'm doing pretty good with that rite now. It'll problem just move components out of the way of the falling component.
One last thing I need help with is that I don't want the object that's being carried to go across the menu bar and certain areas. When I'm having the object being carried I have it braught up to the glass pane which allows it to move anywhere. Does anyone have any idea how I could prevent the component from being over the menu bars and other objects? I might have to make 1 panel is the movable area that can then be broken down into the 'component bank', 'building page' and whatever else I'm gonna need.
This is all just test code to get together for when I make the real program but I need to make sure it'll be possible without a lot of hacking of code.
Sorry for the length. Thanks for any help you can give.

The trick to making viewable components that have no behaviour, is to render them onto an image of some sort (eg a BufferedImage). You can then display the Image on a JLabel that can be dragged around the desktop.
Here is a piece of code that does the component rendering for you. This particular example uses a fixed component size, but you can modify that as you choose of course...public class JComponentImage
     private static GraphicsConfiguration gConfig;
     private static Dimension compSize = new Dimension(80, 22);
     private static Image image = null;
     public static Image getImage(Class objectClass)
          if (gConfig == null)
               GraphicsEnvironment gEnv = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
               GraphicsDevice gDevice = gEnv.getDefaultScreenDevice();
               gConfig = gDevice.getDefaultConfiguration();
          image = gConfig.createCompatibleImage(compSize.width, compSize.height);
          JComponent jc = (JComponent) ObjectFactory.instantiate(objectClass);
          jc.setSize(compSize);
          Graphics g = image.getGraphics();
          g.setColor(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
          g.fillRect(0, 0, compSize.width, compSize.height);
          g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
          jc.paint(g);
          return image;
}And here is the class that makes the dragable JLabel using the class above...public class Dragable extends JLabel
     private static DragSource dragSource = DragSource.getDefaultDragSource();
     private static DragGestureListener dgl = new DragMoveGestureListener();
     private static TransferHandler th = new ObjectTransferHandler();
     private Class compClass;
     private Image image;
     Dragable(Class compClass)
          this.compClass = compClass;
          image = JComponentImage.getImage(compClass);
          setIcon(new ImageIcon(image));
          setTransferHandler(th);
          dragSource.createDefaultDragGestureRecognizer(this,
                                                      DnDConstants.ACTION_COPY,
                                                      dgl);
     public Class getCompClass()
          return compClass;
}Oh and here is ObjectFactory which simply instantiates Objects of a given class and sets their text to their classname (very crudely)...public class ObjectFactory
     public static Object instantiate(Class objectClass)
          Object o = null;
          try
               o = objectClass.newInstance();
          catch (Exception e)
               System.out.println("ObjectFactory#instantiate: " + e);
          String name = objectClass.getName();
          int lastDot = name.lastIndexOf('.');
          name = name.substring(lastDot + 1);
          if (o instanceof JLabel)
               ((JLabel)o).setText(name);
          if (o instanceof JButton)
               ((JButton)o).setText(name);
          if (o instanceof JTextComponent)
               ((JTextComponent)o).setText(name);
          return o;
}Two more classes required by this codepublic class ObjectTransferHandler extends TransferHandler {
     private static DataFlavor df;
      * Constructor for ObjectTransferHandler.
     public ObjectTransferHandler() {
          super();
          try {
               df = new DataFlavor(DataFlavor.javaJVMLocalObjectMimeType);
          } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
               Debug.trace(e.toString());
     public Transferable createTransferable(JComponent jC) {
          Transferable t = null;
          try {
               t = new ObjectTransferable(((Dragable) jC).getCompClass());
          } catch (Exception e) {
               Debug.trace(e.toString());
          return t;
     public int getSourceActions(JComponent c) {
          return DnDConstants.ACTION_MOVE;
     public boolean canImport(JComponent comp, DataFlavor[] flavors) {
          if (!(comp instanceof Dragable) && flavors[0].equals(df))
               return true;
          return false;

          comp.add(c);
          comp.validate();
          return true;
public class ObjectTransferable implements Transferable {

          } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
               System.out.println("ObjectTransferable: " + e);
          this.objectClass = objectClass;
      * @see java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable#getTransferDataFlavors()
     public DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors() {
          return new DataFlavor[] { df };
      * @see java.awt.datatransfer.Transferable#isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor)

     public Object getTransferData(DataFlavor arg0)
          throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException {
          return ObjectFactory.instantiate(objectClass);
}And of course the test class:public class DragAndDropTest extends JFrame
     JPanel leftPanel = new JPanel();
     JPanel rightPanel = new JPanel();
     Container contentPane = getContentPane();
     Dragable dragableJLabel;
     Dragable dragableJButton;
     Dragable dragableJTextField;
     Dragable dragableJTextArea;
      * Constructor DragAndDropTest.
      * @param title
     public DragAndDropTest(String title)
          super(title);
          dragableJLabel = new Dragable(JLabel.class);
          dragableJButton = new Dragable(JButton.class);
          dragableJTextField = new Dragable(JTextField.class);
          dragableJTextArea = new Dragable(JTextArea.class);
          leftPanel.setBorder(new EtchedBorder());
          BoxLayout boxLay = new BoxLayout(leftPanel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS);
          leftPanel.setLayout(boxLay);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJLabel);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJButton);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJTextField);
          leftPanel.add(dragableJTextArea);
          rightPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(500,500));
          rightPanel.setBorder(new EtchedBorder());
          rightPanel.setTransferHandler(new ObjectTransferHandler());
          contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          contentPane.add(leftPanel, "West");
          contentPane.add(rightPanel, "Center");
     public static void main(String[] args)
          JFrame frame = new DragAndDropTest("Drag and Drop Test");
          frame.pack();
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
          frame.setVisible(true);
}I wrote this code some time ago, so it won't be perfect but hopefully will give you some good ideas.

Help with Print Layout Designer

Hi all,
I'm not sure if I should post this here or not, I already posted it in the Business One Forum. Moderator(s) if this is not the proper place please delete it and let me know that it is not the appropriate venue.
I need some help with Print Layout Designer. I am running 2005A SP01, and my customer wants a modification to the Sales Backorder Report. They want to add the column "In Stock" to both the report as displayed on the screen and the printed document. The report rendered to the screen has the In Stock, but it is not checked as visible. I check it and In Stock shows up as designed. The part I am having problems with is the printed document. I opened the PLD from the Backorder Report, and saved it under a different name. I resized some of the columns in the repetitive area (header and data) to make room for the In Stock column. I CAN add the text field Instock as free text and enter "In Stock" as the content. I looked at the "backorder" column in the PLD, and it is a text field with the source System Variable and the variable is 109. I would assume that all I need to do in my added column is to set the source to System Variable and enter the variable number. That is the problem; I can't find the variable number for that column. I looked on the report rendered to the screen with system information on and the variable is "3 #000027825,OnHand". I looked at the Back Order column of the report rendered to the screen and the variable is "3 #000028725,OpenCreQty". I found a spreadsheet that is supposed to contain a list of system variables for 2007A, but the document type for this report is BRDR and that document type does not appear in the list of document types in that spreadsheet. I looked for a similar spreadsheet for 2005A SP01 but didn't find one. I DID find a document "How To Customize Printing Templates with the Print Layout Designer". According to that document, I should be able to get the system variable from the report rendered to the screen with System Information turned on. Can anyone help?
TIA,
Steve

I haven't dealt with this before so I can't be certain, but here are my thoughts.
The Backordered Qty is probably a calculated field, so that's why it's a system variable. The In Stock is a defined field, so you probably can use the file and field number, OITM, OnHand. I would look at maybe the stock number or description to see how those are setup on the form instead of the backordered qty field.
