OS/X RDP client feature request - Applescript support

The new OS/X RDP client is very nice overall, but it can't be easily scripted. You can get most of the way there using OS/X UI scripting:
tell application "Microsoft Remote Desktop"
activate
tell application "System Events"
set frontmost of process "Microsoft Remote Desktop" to true
tell process "Microsoft Remote Desktop"
keystroke "f" using {command down}
keystroke "a" using {command down} -- select all
key code 51 -- delete
keystroke item 1 of argv --search query
keystroke tab
key code 126 -- up
key code 125 -- down
key code 36 --enter
end tell
end tell
end tell
But UI scripting is brittle. For example, the recent update to the RDP client pops up a dialog box announcing the new changes - that breaks the UI scripting. You have to launch the app and clear the dialog box before the UI scripting starts working again.
It would be much simpler and far more reliable if the OS/X RDP client supported Applescript to both list desktops and to connect to a desktop.

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback and I will forward your concern to the product team.

Feature Request: iTunes support CD drive letters A&B

Not sure how to submit this feature request to Apple for iTunes for Windows enhancement so I figured I would start at the forum.
I know in the "dark ages" drive letters A&B where pretty much reserved for floppy drives. Not sure how many computers are actually still in use running Windows XP and up that still have one of those drives.
Therefore, for some time now these two drive letters have gone unused. C: in general was the first HD letter, and CD-Roms (or now DVD/Blu-Ray) drives started somewhere with D: and above depending on your computer configuration.
I changed my setup a while ago and named my two DVD drives A & B since Windows supports it just fine, as do a lot of other programs, with the exception of iTunes :-(. For some reason, iTunes will not support reading CDs from drives A or B, even if Windows autorun feature is enabled asking if it should import the CD into iTunes. Apple, what's up with that? Why actual restrict reading music from CD drives assigned letters A & B? Is this an old piece of code still lingering around in iTunes?
So, simple feature request for an upcoming iTunes release, please enable reading/important CD music from drives labeled A&B so that we can start using these letters again as well.
Anybody else want to support this simple request that should be fairly easy for Apple to implement?

We're a user-to-user community, so there's no guarantee that an Apple person will see your request. But you can make enhancement requests directly to the Apple folks if you like. Here's a link to the iTunes product feedback form:

Feature Request: Collection Support

I already submitted this as part of a long laundry list of feature requests. Its becoming pressing enough that I thought it warranted its own post.
The purpose of this feature is to allow collections to be built using any programmatic algorithm combining information available ala SDK or XMP. Example function calls:
- LrCollections.createNewCollection( collectionName, clearIfAlreadyExisting )
- LrCollections.addToCollection( photo )
That would do it.

Dynu.com uses a HTTP-update mechanism. So you can change the updater-settings in your config to match the syntax from dynu. The URL is shown in their SDK: http://downloads.dynu.com/files/basic_sdk.txt

Skype for Business Android client (feature request)

Hi, I assume that the Mobile version of Skype for Business client is due out soon to replace Lync 2013 client, one thing i really wish would be added is the ability to send files to mobile clients. Surely this isnt a big technical problem as the Windows clients already do this so surely this could be added to the mobile clients. Having this feature would really make life so much better for our small business as we could send out documents to our engineers instead of emailing them. Doing this via S4B would immediately notify the engineers of the msg and then it would allow quick and easy 2 way msging between the office and engineers. I really cant see why this feature wasnt in Lync 2013? Also is there any news of an ETA for Skype for business mobile clients? Thanks JK

Hi,
I have recorded this request and thank you for your advice. Currently I can't guarantee this will be added, but please be assured that any improvements in the product are based on users' requirements. Our developers strive to capture Microsoft users' ideas
and are working hard to create a more powerful and easy-to-use product.

Feature request: Replaygain support for FLAC files

Hi guys,
When converting some of my mp3's to FLAC, I noticed that the REPLAY_GAIN_TRACK tags are not used by the Walkman app on my Z3C. It works perfectly for mp3 files though. This is a real obstacle for me as I do not like having to change the volume all the time when playing different kinds of music.
So my request would be to extend the replaygain support to FLAC files. I think anyone who uses FLAC files would consider that a very welcome addition, and it should be really easy to do!

No, the album art actually works for both mp3 and FLAC. What I'm referring to is the REPLAY_GAIN_TRACK tag that you can attach to your files (for mp3 you could use e.g. the program called mp3gain). This allows you to normalize the volume of each track to for instance 92dB. When you do this, you will find that each track plays at a pleasant loudness without having to change the volume all the time. Or to put it differently, if this tag is not supported (like for FLAC at the moment), then I'm listening to one track and when the next one starts it may be way louder or quieter, meaning I have to reach for my phone and change the volume. It really is a very nice feature to have, and since Sony has it working for mp3 it seems very easy to extend this support to FLAC as well.
Are you having issues with album art though? Perhaps I could help you then.

Feature request: keymapping support for basic GVIM style editing

Maybe this isn't the right forum, but it seems to be the only mechanism for providing
feedback. I'm getting used to the workshop environment and like a lot of the
features it provides. Tab completion of methods, parameter info, import automation
are all very nice modern features. I come from a Unix background and cut my teeth
coding on VI and GVIM off the command prompt. A feature that would really sell
me on an IDE and many that I know, would be some support for VI keymappings.
Once you are used to an editor that doesn't make you run to the mouse or the arrow
keys every time you need to move the cursor, anything less feels slow and taxing.
If basic support for "VI like" operation could be added, I think you'd find more
people like myself willing to spend time in the IDE for its other features. GVIM
offers a rich set of features, of which about 10 would suffice for most of what
I do.
1. insert/navigate modes so you can use ijkl instead of arrow keys.
2. support for '/' as a search prompt as well as 'n' and 'N' to jump between
findings.
3. support for regular expressions on the search line
4. support for regular expressions via a VI style substitute command {range}:s/search/replace/
5. :w for write or "save"
6. :e to open a file
7. 'A' to jump to the end of a line and enter insert mode.
8. 'D' to delete beyond the cursor to the end of the line.
9. :line-number to jump to a line number.
10. 'x' to delete a character and 2x for two etc...
Okay, my list goes beyond ten if I continue, but if I could perform basic editing
without having to go to the arrows or the mouse or a separate window of gvim,
I'd be a happy customer.
Thanks,
Morgan

Morgan,
The engg team has confirmed that its a goal to support this in the next

Feature Request: HDR support

HDR is becoming more and more important.   LR really needs to support 32-bit PSD and TIFFs.   It would also be nice if it support OpenEXR and HDR file formats.

I think that supporting HDR files is really independent of how well PhotoShop handles them.   Though, in my experience OpenEXR support is fine in PS.   But having LR completely ignore 32-bit files whether they are OpenEXR, TIFF, PSD, or Radiance files is really a problem.   On projects that use them, having them missing from the LR browser complicates management of the project.   Even if there is no support for HDR in the develop module, just being able to import and see them from the browser and have them be meat for plugins or external editting would be a big win.
As to the stacking feature suggestion:
   Maybe this should be a separate thread as the handling of stacks is really independent of support for HDR.

[Feature Request] Better support for new buttons in JUNavigationBar

In my project I use a home made sub-class of JUNavigationBar, which contains some new functionality apart from a new button as well. This button allows me to refresh the currently selected row.
However, since I added this button though a simple this.add(), some of the functionality in JUNavigationBar may get confused.
For example, when I have removed some of the standard buttons but left my own button in place (setHasXXX()), the component index (calculated in JToolBar) and the array index for the buttons in JUNavigationBar may not match. This occasionally causes an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.
In short, what I'm asking for, is a better way to manage buttons on JUNavigationBar. Even making the array of buttons and related methods and such protected in stead of private (so that my sub-class could handle it) would be a good start.

Hi Arno,
I had a similar issue with trying to create a Nav bar with dynamic content. My solution was to leave all the standard buttons in place and to use setVisible(x) to make them appear or not as required.
BTW have you noticed that rollover behaviour isn't consistant ie works for FIRST/LAST etc but not for FIND/QUERY.

CSCuo38919 - TMS - Feature request to support Huawei endpoints

Dear Gentels
is this issue solved or not yet?
please advice

Hi,
Thanks for your recommendation Magnus,
The software check has been disabled and reenabled many times in the past to no avail.
We're holding off doing it againet just yet as it deletes all of the logs.
The proxy has also been removed and readded many times without a change of behaviour.
The proxy is currently removed so there is NO proxy!
We're noticing in the logs if usually fails around the same time about 9 minutes in as per below.
When it does succeed it takes about 15 min but we see several end points failing consistently everytime (up to 19 now and increasing). I am going to check some of these manually.
This consistency in failed time suggests to me it is unlikely a connectivity issue. I'm am wondering whether it has something to do with the number of endpoints that need their SN checked (over 2,500) or related to some of the endpoints failing? (or the number that are failing)

SSLSocket to support NIO - feature request voting

Hello All,
I know there were many discussions here regarding this subject.
I've seen the SSLEngine solution for the problem... But I didn't like it since it is too complicated.
For my understanding SSLSocket inherits Socket so an application that can handle Sockets should be able to handle SSLSocket without writing a specific code besides the factory.
NIO allows Socket to be none blocking... So why SSLSocket which is a Socket does not?
If I write a Web server in Java, why should I deal with none SSL and SSL connections in a different way?
I recently wrote one threaded NIO server and was amazed that I could not use SSL with the same implementation.
I've opened a feature request for Java, but they told me to gain support for this subject here before they will consider it...
As I understand I can re-implement SSLSocket to use SSLEngine and support NIO with blocking and none blocking support... But I think Sun should do it.
One caveat is to make sure that the SSLSocket HandshakeCompletedListener should be called by a daemon thread, so that it will not block other sockets while certificate verification occur.
Of course when I refer to SSLSocket I also refer to SSLServerSocket.
Can you please comment regarding this issue... Every comment will be welcomed!
Best Regards,
Alon Bar-Lev

nah, I am very glad they released an engine separate from transport allowing encryption on any transport.
I am also working on an abstraction of nio that you may be interested in if you don't want to do the security yourself......it is here...
http://sourceforge.net/projects/channelmanager
Right now, it only contains the api, but there are 3 implementations behind it right now with 3 to be added.
1. Basic implementation that does just nio
2. Secure implementation that implements same api and uses implementation 1
3. Packettizer implementation which puts things in payloads with headers and footers
4. (to be added) Threadpool implementation allowing a threadpool to be inserted in the stack somewhere
5. (to be added) TestProxy implementation allowing exxceptions to be thrown on purpopse to test a system on a bad network....can test failure on bind, connect, read, write, etc....everything.
6. denial of service layer.
7. Exception catch layer to protect #1 and #4 mainly from bad clients that throw exceptions back to the channelmanager.
Each one of these layers (2 - 4) implements the same api and uses the same api so 2 -4 are all proxies. You can reorganize the proxies as you want.
The secure one is almost done. Any comments on the api will be welcome.
thanks,
dean

Feature Request: Support for External Synths/Modules (via MIDI)

Hi,
I just posted a feature request (via the Apple Feature Request form) but also wanted to post here. I use a combination of hardware instruments (sound modules) and software instruments.
*My Setup*
- Keyboard #1: M-Audio Axiom 25 (also includes a USB MIDI interface)
- Keyboard #2: Roland A-33 Controller Keyboard (via my Axiom-25's MIDI In)
- Edirol USB MIDI Interface (sound modules plugged into MIDI Outs)
- Sound Module #1: Roland JV-1080
- Sound Module #2: Yamaha TX802
MainStage currently takes care of all my software instrument needs, however, what is missing is the ability to add external physical MIDI devices as either patches or as channel strips. I would like to use a combination of software and hardware instruments in the same song, and control this via Mainstage.
Example:
- Patch 1 could potentially contain 2 software instruments, each seperately controlled by a physical keyboard (this is currently possible)
- Patch 2 could contain 1 software instrument and 1 external sound module each controlled by a physical keyboard (this is currently impossible)
- Patch 3 could contain 2 external sound modules, mapped to different ports and/or channels, and therefore independantly controlled by my 2 keyboads (this is also currently impossible)
Would I be correct in assuming that this is a fairly common limitation of MainStage?

I have achieved MIDI out from Mainstage, thank to the information found on this forum..
what I actually do is send Prg Change from every preset I select to control a hardware vocal harmony pedal. this way i don't have to remember which setting i use on every song or even, section of a song.
*Step 1:*
Library>application support>Logic> create a folder named precisely MAINSTAGE CALLBACKS
inside of it, create an applescript with this code
on action(parameter)
set myprogramchange to programchangenumber of parameter
tell application "MidiPipe"
MIDISend toPort "MidiPipe AppleScript Input" withData {192, myprogramchange}
end tell
end action
*step 2*
download MIDIPIPE from http://homepage.mac.com/nicowald/SubtleSoft/
and install it in your apps folder
*step 3*
start midipipe, and define the following modules
MIDI IN-> use applescript input from menu
MIDI OUT-> route to your midi interface desired output
save this to a Midipipe file you can easily access
Now, when I go to a gig I FIRST (this is important) load midipipe and my preset, and just hide it and let it work in the background
Start mainstage, and set the program change of every PATCH to what I want to be sent over MIDI OUT when I enter the preset (-1 if needed or modify the previous applescript).
Ok, this just gives you Prg change... if you want something like CC or others, you can look at some of the example files on midipipe, and write your own applescripts to be used from a control within mainstage (you know, select a screen control, and assign it to an applescript located in library>application suport>logic>Mainstage scripts. you have to tell the applescript to receive incoming data from mainstage and send it (with even some filtering or transforming) to midipipe to go to the outside world.
One last idea: i used a free plug-in called MIDIIO that, although the plugin analysis on mainstage might say does not pass, you can use it anyway, and lets you insert it as if it was a plugin instrument...then you just route your screen controller to a MIDI parameter on that track, and there you go...but in the past it was not as solid as the midipipe solution.
I am still investigating...I am pursuing having my hardware controller knobs to follow screen settings everytime I just change a patch, but lack some info on how to get parameter values when entering the patch ¿anyone knows, blueberry, zuelito...? I promise to share the results!

Need security cert support - feature request

The iOS version of Adobe Reader does support password-based encryption, but not certificate-based encryption. We need certificate-based encryption for certain business functions. When I tried reading a pdf file encrypted with a certificate on the iPad, Adobe Reader for iOS said, “The document has features that are not supported in this version of Adobe Reader”. Please consider this a feature request to add this capability.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for your feedback. But can you let us know which version of MRD client you are using on which device as to clarify and research more regarding your case.

Feature request: more xpath support in XMLElement

Hey guys,
Just wanted to submit a feature request. I'm trying to write code to find the number of Invocation service threads that Coherence uses. It would be very nice if I could use XPath syntax such as the following:
getSafeElement("cluster-config/services/service[@id='3']/init-params/init-param/param-value")
Since the API doesn't support that, I have to resort to something like the following:
XmlElement services = com.tangosol.net.CacheFactory.getClusterConfig().findElement(
        "cluster-config/services");
List servicesList = services.getElementList();
for (Iterator i=servicesList.iterator(); i.hasNext(); ) {
    XmlElement element = (XmlElement)i.next();
    if (element.getAttribute("id").getInt() == 3) {
        XmlElement value = element.findElement("init-params/init-param/param-value");
        System.out.println("invocation threads: " + value.getInt());
}I haven't quite gotten that to work yet, but it's probably close. :)
Thanks,
Matt

Matt,
There is a helper function in com.tangosol.run.xml.XmlHelper class that makes it almost as easy as using the XPath.
XmlElement xmlCluster    = CacheFactory.getClusterConfig();
XmlElement xmlInvocation = XmlHelper.findElement(xmlCluster,
        "cluster-config/services/service/service-type", "Invocation");
XmlElement xmlThreads    = XmlHelper.findElement(xmlInvocation,
        "../init-params/init-param/param-value");
System.out.println("invocation threads: " + xmlThreads.getInt());Regards,
Gene
