New Guy Question about Name Changes from Logical to Relational

Sorry for the "New Guy" question. I am trying to do this the way I wished it worked rather than the way it does.
Lets say I have an Entity named "Current Database" with an Attribute named "Current Database Name". All this is in plan english for the Logical Model. Now when I generate the Relational Model I would like the Table named "CDCD_CURRENT_DB" and the column named "CURRENT_DB_NAME".
I have been working with a Glossary and some other features trying to get this to work. It kind of does but I do not fully get it and I think I am missing out on much of the power of the product. I have been forcing the Nickname "CDCD" (As we call it) and the "Database" to "DB" in the "Preferred Abbreviation" of the Entity.
I am working with v3.3.0.734
Thanks for the help.

Hi Sky13,
it can be done with glossary but it looks to me what you want is not that native to glossary approach.
it's good to look here for basics http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/datamodeler/datamodelernamingstandards-167685.pdf
Example here also could be useful if you want to go with glossary - Re: Data Modeler: Naming
If you want to use preferred abbreviation then it should be CDCD_CURRENT_DB.
For me CDCD_ is just a prefix - you can handle it separately in relational model - on whole model, on subview and in both cases classification types also can be used to determine how objects are prefixed.
You don't want Current to be abbreviated then do not put it in glossary however you need to check "Incomplete modifiers" check box in glossary.
Entity property "Short name" goes to table abbreviation during engineering. There is a transformation script which will prefix table columns with table abbreviation if you need it. And another one can remove the prefix.
You can define plural name in glossary and if entity name is a single word then plural will be used during name translation.

How to configure a map of patches names of my midi device in order to insert program changes from Logic?

You can usually use a patch editor-librarian program like Sound Diver or MidiQuest to copy and paste the patch names (one bank at a time) into the patch name list of a multi-intsrument object in the environment.
That's what I do. Works like a charm.
Cheer,

"My first copy of Logic came on Floppy disks"
And you will need to setup bank change commands for your particular instrument, if it does in fact have several banks of internal patches. Logic comes with a selection of bank change commands, one of them will almost always work.
My first copy of Logic came on floppies, two of them I think and was MIDI only, moved up to Logic_Audio at version 3.0 I think.

Question about tranferring data from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4

I just had a couple quick questions about transferring data from my old phone from my new iPhone 4. The reason i am wondering is because i am worried about whether i will encounter any problems when doing so.
First off i have already sold my phone today, i reset all data and settings from the phone and gave it to my buddy so its gone. I did a full sync and backup yesterday so all the necessary files should be on my computer(windows 7). Now, im basically wondering if i will run into any problems if i restore my iphone 4 from a backup. My 3gs was running 3.1.2 on att. Now i know IDEALLY i would have updated it to iOS 4 before backing it up and used the newest version of itunes, but i did not. Does anyone think this will be a problem for me?
Now with that out of the way, my biggest fear is losing my old data(text messages and notes mainly because i am a pack rat for those type of things) so id like to be SURE that none of my old backups will be deleted in any scenario. The reason i dont just restore it right now is because i want my new phone to be as clutter free as possible. I am going to be putting on here only the apps that i used often and would basically like to transfer over the BARE minimum; texts, notes, and highly used apps... So i guess my main question is can you transfer over only certain things like texts and notes after setting up the phone as a new phone. And if i were to set up the phone as a new phone what would happen to my old backups? Would i be able to selectively restore?
Im afraid that it might not be a possibility to transfer only certain things even though it should be.. i should be able to select a text messages folder and put it on my new phone and be done with it... But anyway i dont want to rant. Can anyone explain to me how this all will work?
ULTIMATE GOAL: Transfer only texts, notes, certain apps(and their data) and NOTHING ELSE.
MOST IMPORTANT THING: Not losing texts and notes. I can deal with putting all the old **** on my new phone and cluttering/slowing it down if i NEED to.
Thank you in advance, sorry for the long post.

If the most important thing for you is keeping old text messages, notes, and voicemail, then you'll need to sync the phone from your existing backup. I know of no other way to access those items.
Once you have synced to the new phone, check that you have those items that were important. Then you can reconnect your phone to iTunes, and change the sync settings to remove the apps or other items you no longer want to keep on the phone.
iPhone backups are stored by iTunes; you can see them by opening your iTunes preferences, clicking on "Devices" and then looking in the window. You can delete old backups from here. I don't know how you can open/read the backups though.
I don't expect you'd have any problems syncing from your old phone's backup, but it's definitely an either/or situation. Since you got rid of the old phone already, it's too late to email yourself your notes, or copy the text messages. Your previous backup is your only solution.

Hi Everyone I'm New, Got Question About Upgrading MSI GT60 0ND With SSD.
:welcome:So As I've stated I'm new here, or at least got a new MSI notebook.
Ive got the new MSI gt60 0ND with 750GB HD and 675 Ge-Force GTX , anyways to the bottom line.
I would like to Upgrade my computer with SSD that I bought and install the win8 on it, in order to speed things up, but I have encountered a few problems..
1. there is no sticker on the back of the computer that gives information about the serial number of my windows 8...
2. lets say in some magical way I could get the serial number out, can I use it to reinstall ? because Ive heard that you cannot use this CD key anyways unless you got a special win8 installation CD key from MSI because its MSI branded windows 8.
am I screwed ? ?? ? I thought it is possible to upgrade with SSD but it seems like MSI made it very hard, I do not understand why they even putted the warranty void sticker on the expansion bay's .... WEIRD..
Please help !! Thanks in advance,
David

IOS4.1 Iphone 4 - carrier name changes from 'O2' to 'TESCO'

iOS4.1 Iphone 4 - carrier name changes from 'O2' to 'TESCO'
Does anyone know if this can be changed back without jailbreaking/downgrading OS? thanks.

I've seen this on two handsets, both after updating the IOS from 4.0.2 to 4.1.0 so I presume the Tesco operator logo has now been included in the OS where it wasn't before. Tesco is an MVNO operating on the o2 network, you can set your own logo to be displayed without jailbreaking, a quick search on google returned a couple of results. Post back if you have any success!

Views always appear as different when engineering from Logical to Relational

I created some views in my logical model. After I engineer them to relational model, they appear in relational with an exclamation mark near the upper left corner. If I try to generate ddl for them, I get an error (-- ERROR: Invalid View VwTest). I realized that I have to "validate selected views", in order for the eclamation mark to disappear, and then I am able to generate ddl for them. After that, when I engineer from logical to relational again, it always shows me that my views are different. The difference is that in logical, my entities are shown between double quotes ("), while in relational, after the validation, the tables are not between double quotes. Is there a way to overcome this?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this problem. It appears that this is happening when the Entity name contains lower-case letters.

Question about Removing Permissions from the System Folder with chmod

Hi
I have a question about the removal of permissions from the System folder (and sub directories and files).
Background
Since installing a new HD, clean install of 10.6, application of updates and moving over backed up user directories I have had several issues with permissions.
I have read several threads on this and using disk warrior and other tools I have been able to fix most of the issues.
The Problem
The issue that remains is a permissions check using Disk Utility keeps reporting
ACL found but not expected on "System".
followed by an extensive list of sub directories and all.
Attempts to repair take hours and the same errors are reported.
Found Solutions
I have read about changing and/or completely removing the ACL from the permissions from the System using two different commands:
sudo chmod -R -N ./System/* ( to remove all ACLs)
or
sudo chmod -R -E ./System/* ( to replace all ACLs )
My Question is ( to the UNIX gurus):
What is the difference between the usage with -E and -R and which is the best approach for a Systems directory and (subordinates)?
Many thanks!!

OK
So I misread on the your instructions about the PW reset, did it, no harm in that. I did also select the options to reset all the permissions for all the accounts and the ACL issues were not resolved. My bad, I forgot to note that.
You do suggest getting and expert opinion but alas these are rather elusive. In most cases the Apple solutions is to do a complete reinstall... I have found that unless you completely wipe a drive and rebuild everything there are often artifacts left behind. Since I have full and redundant back-ups I would rather explore and hack a little instead of a dull old system reinstall. The irony is the system issue I had was it was the result a reinstall and combo update on a new drive. I recognize the risks of entering the realms of the System folders but I am willing to explore knowing full well that I have a path to recovery.
Thanks again for your insights. I come to the forums looking for insights and ideas but not a lecture...

Meter / slider questions - cluster names, changing needle colour

OK, so a couple of questions about meters /sliders.
I have a meter indicator on a form, with two needles. (example attached)
I want to create the cluster for the input using "bundle by name", but the meter "cluster" does not appear to have any names. I want the elements of the cluster to be "Channel 1" and "Channel 2" - how do I do this?
Secondly, I want to be able to set the needles to transparent.
I can do this with a meter with only one needle, but for more than one, I think you need to set the Active slider ("Actslider") property.
It strikes me that the easiest way to do this is to use a loop, but how do I discover how many needles the meter has? Or could I use the cluster names to s
pecify which needle I want to change colour?
TIA

Slider_Cluster_Question_for_Labview_Forum.vi ‏14 KB

Thank you both for the responses, and apologies for the tardy reply - changing priorities, etc, etc, you know how it is...
I've attached a Vi to act as an example for anyone else who has either of these problems.
The main thing I found out is that although you can, as you say, use a constant to "declare" the cluster names for the gauge, these names are only "remembered" by the wire - if you create a local variable of the gauge, it will NOT remember the cluster names. That's what had me confused...
Cheers

Question about stacked graph from DB

Hi There.
Ive come up against an interesting issue in my current project. In my prototype I have a stacked column chart (just one column) with the 'sections' of each column being defined as in the Flex docs, i.e. I have 3 column series I will call col1, col2, and col3. This works great but now my problem is that when I start getting data from the DB, I could have any number of column series as I have in the DB data pairs in the form of; col1 - 23, col2 - 34, col3 - 14... And there can be x number of records. Has anyone got any references or ideas about how to go about this?
Thanks in advance.

Getting on with this I can say I have made (some) progress.
The file looks as follows:
<mx:ColumnChart id="columnChart" type="stacked" dataProvider="{this.chartData}" width="507" height="100%" x="781" y="0">
     <mx:horizontalAxis>
          <mx:CategoryAxis categoryField="category" dataProvider="{this.chartData}"/>
     </mx:horizontalAxis>
</mx:ColumnChart>
And the AS part:
private function createChartSeries(event:ResultEvent):void
     var temp:ArrayCollection = event.result as ArrayCollection;
     chartData = new ArrayCollection();
     var i:int;
     chartData.addItem({name:"val1"});
     chartData.addItem({name:"val2"});
     for (i = 0; i < temp.length; i++)
          var series:ColumnSeries = new ColumnSeries();
          series.xField = "name";
          series.yField = temp[i].call_type.toString();
          series.displayName = temp[i].call_type.toString();
          chartData.getItemAt(0)[temp[i].call_type.toString()] = temp[i].cost;
          chartData.getItemAt(1)[temp[i].call_type.toString()] = temp[i].duration;
          columnChart.series.push( series );
     columnChart.dataProvider = chartData;
     columnChart.invalidateSeriesStyles();
     columnChart.series = columnChart.series;
[Bindable]
public var chartData:ArrayCollection;
The event.result is as follows:
[{type:"t1", val1=10, val2=30}, {type:"t2", val1=20, val2=3}]
Now call the "createChartSeries" function the y-axis updates, there are 2 columns (well the grey bit down the bottom), but there are no names (the x-axis values) and the actual data columns do not show up.
Can anyone help me with this one?

Question about Offset printing from Indesign

Hello everyone, I have a question about printing too a DPX rip platemaker from Indesign. When I print my file to the rip, it seems to bold the text when it should not be bold, I do not know if this is an Indesign or rip error, but if anyone has a solution I would be grateful for any assistance.
I dont know if it's necessary, but the OS with Indesign is Mac OSX, printing to a ripmate on Windows 2000.

Have you applied an outline to the text?
Try unoutlined text
Is the text near an effect like drop shadow or other filter?
Move the text to top layer or above any effects.
Is it just this file or any file?
Need to figure out if it's just this job or all of them or at least let us know.
Have you got the fonts installed at the RIP end, perhaps it's rasterising text that the RIP has not got the font?
You could try exporting to PDF first, that would embed the fonts in the PDF.
Let us know if any of this helps?

Question About Adding Ram from other laptop to T-series Thinkpad

Hi,
I have a question about adding additional RAM. Right now I have a 4gb ram stick in the t510. I have an acer laptop which I do not need and there is a 4GB ram stick onboard (maybe two 2gb ram sticks) there in that older laptop. Would it be possible to add one stick of 2gb ram (or 4gb i need to check if it is 2 or 1) from the acer to the lenovo thinkpad making the total ram in the thinkpad over 4gb????
Thanks in advance

Hi Richk,
Yes, I am using a 64-bit operating system. I am running on windows 7. And as for reported incompatibilities....technically taking a RAM from another laptop and placing it in the laptop should be the same as purchasing a RAM card from ebay or something and putting into the laptop right?

Some question about receiving messages from Skype ...

Hello there,
I have a question or two about recieving messages from Skype users, who are not on my contact list"
1. If I have enabled to only receive messages from people in my contact list, will they be notified when they try to send me an instant message, that they need to add me first?
2. Will I still be able to see messages sent by contacts who are not in my contact list and them see my messages*, if we are both in a Skype conversation group but not on each other's contact list? *The messages either one of us posts in the Skype group conversation
I appreciate the information
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

1. The person sending this message will not receive any notification about failing message delivery. The message will just disappear in nowhere.
2. Messages exchanged in group chats will be seen both by you and the other person, even if this person is not in your Contact List.

Question about kernel compilation from wiki

Hello,
I compile kernel in line with arch wiki (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ker … rom_Source). In paragraph '2. With makepkg and pacman (Recommended)' are lines:
mv [kernel location]/* src/
cp -r [kernel location]/* src/
Does it make sense? First I move [kernel location] to src/ (I think it should be '/src/') and then I copy nonexistent [kernel location] to the same path.
Thanks
#edit:
I looked through word 'either' So now I'm not sure with this:
(my build directory is ~/kernelbuild)
1. in ~/kernelbuild create 'src' directory
2. copy ~/kernelbuild/linux-2.6.30.5/* src/
Am I right?
Last edited by cinan (2009-08-22 12:16:34)

Commands are correct, but as I said I was little confused about names/terms (eg kernel location-kernel source, making directory usr). I hope the wiki page will be more clear for users who never compiled custom kernel.
