New Template: OSX Brushed Metal

Okay folks, I've had this template in the works for a long time now, and I've just been trying to work with too many other things so I need to release this and move on.
It's not quite ready yet and here's the deal... the more I worked with it, the less I liked it. It's too cold and uninviting for me. HOWEVER, you might love it so I don't want to get in the way of this thing anymore.
I need suggestions and input into how to make this thing great. I'll take all your feedback and incorporate it and then finish it up and hopefully have a download for you tonight (like in 12 hours).
Here's the link to a demo site that's using it:
http://web.mac.com/sboben/iWeb/OSX/
This demo site was built entirely with a blank OSX template page. I haven't configured the photo, blog or podcast pages yet for this one. However, you can see that just using a blank page opens up all kinds of possibilities. Not to mention, your Mac is filled with imagery that you could use to make this thing look REALLY cool ( see here if you have time to wait ).
I also have what I'm going to coin, PNG PAKs. I've written tons of scripts to generate hundreds of supporting images - things like the nice picture frames, picture backdrops, text backdrops, shapes, arrows, buttons... you'll see some of these on the OSX demo pages. The ones on the demo pages are in-lays because they're supposed to look sunken, or cut-out of the brushed metal. The white ones play tricks with my eyes. I can create them in any color so you're not stuck with hi-fi or white.
Please post feedback and I'll wrap this one up for distribution when we're done.

Hey GREAT idea! I'm deep in AppleScript at the moment so if I forget to get this updated, yell at me later.
Also, I cannot publish at the moment - it just throws errors left and right. This is due to the fact that I had to pull a fast one on iWeb by removing the domain.sites folder WHILE iWeb was open because I could not get it to update the images. I figured if I yanked out the repository, that it would have to write everything back in ha ha, but it's protesting left and right about it. At least the images on my site are fixed! I just can't republish now.

HT202879 I would like to have a spreadsheet editing software for my new Template Numbers Pro but my operating system is 10.7. Are there other editing software programs (less the 10.9) that can work with this app?

Hi,
I am looking for some editing software for my new Template Numbers Pro. Numbers is 10.9, my computer is only 10.7. What do you suggest?
Thanks,

If it's the "Templates for Numbers Pro" on the Mac App Store then you need OSX 10.7 or later. You'll need iWork '09 or later.
It looks as if you want to use the iOS version of the same templates then you will need the latest Numbers there. And if you use the latest Numbers there and want to sync to the Mac, you'll need to have Mavericks and Numbers 3.

Lost brushed metal how do I get it back

I lost my brushed metal theme to my safari. I was wondering how do I get it back. I used some program called safari accelerator I don't remember the name. It disabled my brush metal. I don't really like this new look. I thought I would go back to the old look. Unless there are other themes I can use for Safari?

Hi,
It sounds like you mean Safari Enhancer. Download that again to re-toggle your preference. Other than the styles offered via Safari Enhancer, there's not much you can do to Safari (it's not designed to be easily skinnable unlike say Firefox).

How to create a new template for pages in iPad?

How to create a new template for pages in iPad?

In spite of the latest updates Pages for iPad does not support:
1) User templates
2) Headers
3) Footers
4) Page numbers
and it is not compatible with Pages for OSX, a document cannot be edited alternatively on Mac and iPad without destroying headers and footers.
- The Word export is far from perfect
- Does not really support Page Layout mode (you cannot duplicate a page at least)
- Does not have a multi-page overview
- The spelling support of iOS and OSX is at the level of Apple Maps except 4-5 languages.
- It takes a long time until it starts
INSTEAD, according to the latest updates:
- It can do change tracking
- Lock and unlock objects
- Add reflections to shapes
Dear Apple, please understand:
- We like iPad and we wish to use it for real work.
- We wish to have user templates, headers, footers and page numbers.
- We do not expect all the features of Pages for OSX, but we do expect real compatibility.
- We do not wish to switch back to Word for Windows unless you force us.
Please try to concentrate on real development not on unimportant changes like in the latest dissapointing update.

Hi,
In your new template you have copied only standard WBS. For the activities to be copied, you need to assign that created Std. WBS in Std. Network using CN02.
Input the Std.WBS in the Std. Network in CN02 and check if activities are also created in the network. In the Std. Network change screen press F6, and input Std. WBS in the header data details.
Else, you can create a new std. Network using CN01 and create the activties also in the same and follow the above.
Then try creating new project in CJ20N.

I just statred Flash CC for the first time and it seems that the text within the pop-up window (dialog box) is mis-aligned and not allowing me access to the command buttons, nor all the text. (ie: the NEW Template Box, can't see but 2/3 of the content)

How Do I Create a New Template for iBooks Author?

Apple's provided templates are way too narrow for some of the ideas I want to implement. I do not see any real method for creating a template from scratch. I stripped one of the available templates down to nothing and rebuilt some of the pages and then selected Save As Template... but iBooks Author keeps the original template as the content instead of allowing me to use my own created Chapter, Section, and Pages with the Add Pages.. Button.
How to you create a new template from scratch? I think it is absurd if you can only create a new template from one of the 6 predefined templates.

Be careful on unlocking and deleting stuff, cause this very easily can destroy the layout and your current arrangement

Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
iWork > Pages
contenant Templates > My Templates
comme il y a un dossier
iWork > Numbers
contenant Templates > My Templates
Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
puis lancez la recherche.
Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.

Applying a New Template to a Page with Tabs

Hi,
We use page templates for our pages. We know that you cannot add a region to a page based on a template, but supposedly you can add tabs to a page based on a template.
One template we have has a single tab on it. The web designers have been adding content to pages built on that template. When they need another tab, they add it and add content to the new region on the tab. They may do this until there are 4 tabs on the page (the original tab that is in the template, plus three additional tabs). We use this for example to collect links to memos and to divide the links onto 4 tabs representing calendar quarters.
One of the problems with this process is that the web designers have not been consistent in using uniform definitions for the region on each tab causing an inconsistent look-and-feel from one tab to the next.
I have created a new template with 4 tabs already defined and with the region properties already defined. The web designers can then add content as needed and if a tab is not required it can be marked as hidden.
The problem that I am running into is that if I try to apply the new template to an existing page, I get the following error message:
Error: ORA-00001: unique constraint (PORTAL.WWV_THINGS_NAME_UK) violated
Also, consistently the content from the original first tab is lost and there is no corresponding tab on the reformatted page. Content on the second tab appears to be OK, but content on the third tab is missing. Content on the fourth tab appears to be OK.
Can anyone tell me 1. what is specifically causing the error message, and 2. is it possible to do what I want to do or will all of these pages have to be recreated manually instead of changing the templates.?
Thanks,
Peter

You should be able to do what you are trying to do. You seem to be running into a bug. Please file this with support if possible. Based on the error message, you seem to be running into a case of duplicate names, on either items or tabs. What you might try doing is renaming the tabs, ensuring uniqueness, before changing templates. By "renaming", I mean changing the NAME of the tab, not the Display Name, by clicking Edit Tab in edit mode. Does this help at all?

ADRMS Server 2012 with exchange 2010, I have created some new templates, they are showing up in owa but not Outlook 2013

I cannot figure out why my templates do not show up in Outlook, when I manually update the AD RMS task scheduler to run the templates get pulled and placed into the C:\Users\%%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\DRM\Templates
but when I launch outlook they are not displayed.
Has anyone encountered this type of problem before?

Hi,
Generally, the default Outlook Templates (.oft) is located in drive:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.
Firstly, please make sure the Templates have been located in the C:\Users\%%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\DRM\Templates path of your local machine. If it is there, please copy and paste the new Templates to the default Outlook Templates location.
Then we can right-click the Folder to select Properties in Outlook, and click dropdown next to "When posting to this folder, use:" and select the custom template form in the list. For more information about Outlook Templates, please refer to:

Any NEW Templates in Updates? Looking for Christmas/Thanks Giving Templates

For a newsletter.
Haven't done any updates for a while. Last update was iphoto to see what new templates they had. Seemed fine, you can still print but know I guess you can have them made for $1.99, but that is a different topic.
Thanks!

By Universal Template I mean one which includes the formatting we want, but is not tied to the graphics so much. One which has the paragraph styles easily named, set or renamed (so the pages can be shared with other publications) and the Character Styles the same. Captured pages would include all varieties needed for a newsletter/resume/document of any kind, all in one Universal Template.
While unpopulated for graphics (yet makes it easier to place your own due to formatting) one can easily change the look and feel of an entire set of documents by accessing and altering one document. To be honest the only changes one should need to make when beginning or saving a template is what order the pages are in. When saving a resume template one can start with a collection of the various styles of resume letters. When saving a Newsletter template one can concentrate on those pages which pertain to newsletters.
Currently some newsletters have six pages, some have eight or nine and one even has ten. (Redwood is the most complete). The Extreme template is perhaps the most adventurous in that it uses a variation of shapes for columns, pages and photos. It includes a Magazine Cover so you can see how easy it is to include different starting popints for your use of the document.
When I created the Rounded Corner Photoframes there were thirteen in each of two templates (portrait and landscape), and most were identical with variations of the photos being used. That's some being used for right and left sides of the sheet. I have made an experimental one which included 27, trying to account for all variations of columns and uses. (I have several dozen unfinished products and experiments I cannot release yet because I don't know the direction Pages is going to take in the next version.)
If you look at the Apple templates they are almost all identical within their formats (newsletter, brochure, letter) with the only variations changing being the graphics used, the fonts, and the layout of margins all determined by the topic of the example document. In short, they are examples of newsletters and such that you can create and by being such readily avilable examlpes they have become pretty much copied and reused by those in a hurry.
That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it has become limiting in how many are being shared. It's a complicated process to create a template for sharing They begin to look the same when they all start from the same starting point. I have decided to concentrate on the graphic resources that one can populate a blank document with. To do that I must have a Universal Temlplate that people can start with. One that I can include with the resource packs so you can have a decent idea of how those resources can be used.
I started that with the PagesPlus magazine concept released two months after Pages first came out. That's when I realised there was going to be no real market for templates within the Pages user community. It would never be as vibrant as the community for Keynote themes.
I think an important part of that is that people do not create a template and then build a document. They build a document. I doubt if people are actually creating templates (build pages, separate them, capture them, save template) as much as they are buildign documents they are using. Once you work on a newsletter for a specific month or topic, the chances of you reusing it may be quite slim. The chances of you sharing it as an 'empty' (meaning populated with generic text and generic photos) template that people can reorganize and populate with their own stuff is even slimmer.
I'm not saying that there aren't a pantheon of useful templates for Pages. I am saying that there is a severe lack of creative templates for pages. It comes from all the steps involved in making it usable by others without showcasing only your own talents and content. The goal behind the Universal Template is to give people a more anonymous starting point to begin those creative templates.
Pardon my ignorance, but I'm curious what you mean by a "truly universal style of template". Do you mean a template localised for various languages?
Localization for languages is something most people cannot take the time to do. This is necessary for identifying the various elements used (mostly the paragraph styles, and examples used in the basic template design. Words such as 'Family' or 'Photo'.) but it is unnecessary for the basic 'feel' of the template, and the intuitive understanding that this is how it you should use it. After creating a template based on two simple types of layouts, but created for two different paper sizes (all of a sudden blossoming to four different templates) I realized that Apple deserves a rgeat deal of respect for the amount of work that obviously goes into creating a product for several dozen languages, each containing 66 different templates.
Kudos to your team, Apple. (Now make it so we can set up the pages we can use, lock them in place, and let our text flow through as we complete our masterpieces.)
