Page item name property in UI

Does anyone know if the name property of a page item appear anywhere in the user interface in Illustratpr CS6?
I thought it would be the name you assign to it in the Layers palette, but it does not appear to be.

You have an opened document with page items?
try this:
app.activeDocument.layers[0].pageItems[0].name = "my Item #1";
app.activeDocument.layers[0].pageItems[0].selected = true;
app.redraw();
alert(app.activeDocument.layers[0].pageItems[0].name);

How to Access Item Names Property of ListBox inside of Cluster?

In LabVIEW 2010 I have a Cluster of Controls on the Front Panel. In that Cluster I have a ListBox. How do I access the Item Names Property of the ListBox in my Block Diagram.
From the Cluster, I can get the ListBox, but that returns an I32 value, probably the index of the selected Item.
In the Block Diagram, how can I get the Item Name Property of the ListBox from a Reference to the Cluster?
THANKS.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

by using the "controls" array of your cluster, you can access the individual elements. You have then to convert the reference to a "more specific class" using a reference to an arbitrary listbox (or a constant reference of the required type), then you can access all properties of your listbox.

Filter page items by property in Javascript

What is the Javascript equivalent to this AppleScript?
set xxx to every page item whose note = "John"
After looking at some of the tutorials, I pieced this together. Is there a better way of doing this? With 30,000 path items it took over a minute to execute...
docRef = app.activeDocument;
var pathLength = docRef.pathItems.length;
docRef.pathItems[0].note;
var hitList = []
for (i = 0; i<pathLength; i++)
if (docRef.pathItems[i].note= "John")
hitList.push(i)
alert(hitList.length)

So like this?
docRef = app.activeDocument;
var pathLength = docRef.pathItems.length;
docRef.pathItems[0].note;
var myCount = 0
for (i = 0; i<pathLength; i++)
if (docRef.pathItems[i].note== "JD")
myCount = myCount + 1
alert(myCount)

How to retrieve a page item value in another page?

Hi,
how to retrieve a page item value in another page?
say P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE is my page item name and it is a select list.Based on the value selected,in the next page i shd show details related to the selected value and for this i need P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE value in the next page.How Do I get it?When I try to retrieve the values it simply returns nothing.
Any pointers would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Could you please tell how you try use it ?
If you set value to item P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE and submit page, value is saved to session state.
Then you can use that item in any page like
:P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATEYou can not access page value in javascript/jQuery from other pages like
$v('P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE')
document.getElementbyID('P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE')
$(#P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE)Because item is not in other pages. In javascript from other pages you can use
var a = '&P55_COURSES_TO_EVALUATE.';Regards,

Want a javascript redirect URL using an already defined page item?

Hello,
i have a button where i configure a Redirect to URL option... and use : javascript:html_PopUp('http://yahoo.com', '_newwindow');
That is pretty clear, and it works. I also have a defined page item which does contain a valid URL
For example :P4_OFFICE_WEB_PAGE_LINK_V:='http://google.com'
I want the pop up to use a stored value, not the hardcoded one at the top... I have tried all of these, but none seem to work :
javascript:html_PopUp('P4_OFFICE_WEB_PAGE_LINK_V', '_newwindow');
javascript:html_PopUp(':P4_OFFICE_WEB_PAGE_LINK_V', '_newwindow');
javascript:html_PopUp(APEX_UTIL.GET_SESSION_STATE('P4_OFFICE_WEB_PAGE_LINK_V'), '_newwindow');
What should i use?
Thanks.

Significance of function name property in the OAF Page

Hello, I am trying to find out how the seeded LookupPG works as i need to use the same logic in my application. In the LookupPG page, in the function name property, it's specified as 'FND_LOOKUPS_SSWA'. I tried to open the function to see what is defined in that function and it's nothing but the path of the same page is defined in the function. I tried removing the function name from the page property and it gives me error. Can anyone tell me what's the significance of this function name property in oaf page? Appreciate your advice. Thanks KK

HC,
You can add a Region of type Header and set the Text for that and add your table under the Header region.
Or you can Enter the Text attribute value for that table to get the header.
Thanks,

Some hyperlinks are not working e.g. #page-item and a name="#page-item" how can I resolve that

It's a toplink to a page item on the same page internal (hyperlink) that is not working.
E.g. toplink e.g. #ssc01 to the internal pagelink
<a name="#ssc01"><b>Algemene Informatie</b></a>

Don't add the hash (#) to the name attribute. The hash is used in the URL as separator and should not be in the name.
<pre><nowiki><a name="ssc01">Algemene Informatie</a> </nowiki></pre>

Dynamically changing the name of a page item

Hello,
I'd like to dynammically change the name/label of a page item depending on the user who logged in to the system.
On my home page, there's a navigation region with some list entries in it. Currently its title is "Configuration".
If a specific user signs on, I'd like to change that title to "Reporting". How can I manage to implement such a behaviour.
I tried to get some results by using dynamic actions, but I couldn't get it working.
Thanks for your help in advance!

>
I'd like to dynammically change the name/label of a page item depending on the user who logged in to the system.Create a hidden item called PXX_LABEL (where XX is your page number).
Set the value of the hidden item via a PL/SQL process (when page loads, or when user logs in, or whatever).
In the "Label" field of the actual item, enter &PXX_LABEL. (notice the dot at the end).
When running the page, the label will dynamically be set to the value of the hidden item.

Retrieve names of all page items / item types on the current page - how to?

Is there a PL/SQL function that does this?

I'm trying to build a page in an application that I will deliver to a company and transfer the responsibility for maintenance to the end user / customer IT team.
They will be able to add items to the page according to instructions I gave them, these items will be either radio groups, check boxes or select lists, the names of which are up to them and which I don't have any control over.
I need to store the values for these items in a preference table, keyed off of the combination of USER_ID + PREFERENCE_ID (=item name).
It would be useful if I don't need to change the "save preferences" PL/SQL procedure every time the end user / customer add a new item.

Unexpected error: unable to find item name at page or application level

HI!
I upgrade my application from apex 3.0 to 3.1
I created a new page.
When trying to insert a new row, on clicking "create", the page displays the error :
Unexpected error: unable to find item name at page or application level
This error didn't appear in apex 3.0
What this error can be? Is it a bug of APEX 3.1?
Thank you!

I have seen this in combination with javascript. Recreating the item helped.

Page name property

Hi All,
I have a workset which contains 4 pages.
When i try to rename one of its page, the name gets changed instantly in the PCD ..also reflects when i open the role in the PCD.
But when i click on the role in the TLN it still displays the old name.
Has anyone faced a similar problem?
Please help!!
Thanks,
Veena.

Hi Veena,
When you change the name of a page and save it, then only certain portions of the displayed Portal screen is refreshed. For your changes to be displayed in Top level navigation, you have to refresh the page ( I mean entire Portal page) using browser's refresh button. Then you can see your changes in TLN.

Add interfaces to page items.

Hi,
We have many documents already, and need to "tag" or add attributes to items, which will be written to the IDML. The idea is for us to be able to select items on a page, and then convert them later to interactive fields in PDF.    I am trying to figure out how to select an item on a page, like a TextFrame, and add a custom interface to it.   I suppose once I have added an custom interface tot the object, I should be able to control how it prints IDML, and add an attribute to the IDML that is printed for that item.
Thanks,
Dave.

ok, I have been working with the BPI sample for a little while.. but I am stuck, and am really new to this SDK.. I am trying to add another attribute which will be printed next to BPIData in the IDML. I am stuck trying to Set the value of the new attribute.
Here is how I am attempting to add the attribute (mine is the second Property below):
BPI.fr:
        // BPIData - a string label
                    Property
                              kBPIDataPropertyScriptElement,                              // this property's script element ID
                              p_BPIData,                                                                                // ScriptID
                              "bpi data",                                                                                // name
                              "BasicPersistInterface label for a page item ",          // description

                              kJMANamePropertyScriptElement,                              // this property's script element ID
                              p_JMAName,                                                                                // ScriptID

                              "BasicPersistInterface label for a page item ",          // description
                              StringType,                                                                                // type
                              {}                                                                                                    // alternate types
                              kNoAttributeClass,                                                            // attribute class ID
THEN I WAS looking at
ErrorCode BPIHelper::ProcessBPISetDataCmd(const UIDList& itemList, const WideString& value)
to attempt to set the attrbute, but this is where I get lost.
What do you think, am I on the right track? How would you set the new attribute listed above?

Print page items on Interactive Report

Hello,
I have an interactive report showing employees detail for the department number passed in as parameter.
On interactive report, I have page items showing department name and location on the top under report title.
When I print or export the report, it just exports the data rows, not the report title and department name and location.
Is it possible to include the report title, department name and location as well in the export file?
Thanks.

For printing in specific layouts I use Anton Sheffer As_PDF package. Maybe it can help you out.

Creating page items from pl/sql procedure and using them on a page

I have a page containing 2 select lists (P21_DEPARTMENTS and P21_DATE). Originally I added them as items that were "select list with submits". The problem is that based on the clearance level of the currently logged on user I only wanted the P21_DEPARTMENTS to be a select list if the user was an administrator. If however the user is not an admin then I want the page to have a hidden form field called P21_DEPARTMENTS that stores the user's department and has a label item that has the department name.
There is also a report region that generates a table based on the department selected from the select list (if the user is an admin) or the value stored in the hidden form field if the user is not.
My problem is that I cannot have both those items on the same page and use the HTML built-in authentication to determine which item should be rendered because I need to use the same ID for both items so that the stored procedure in my report region doesn't break. HTML does not permit items to share the same ID.
I tried to circumvent the problem by creating a stored procedure that performs all of the item rendering in the procedure and uses "htp.p()" to output all of my HTML code. This solution would allow me to pass a parameter into the procedure informing me as to whether or not the user is an administrator. If the user is an administrator the procedure would use a conditional statement and render a select list. If not, the hidden form field and label option would be used instead.
I finally got the stored procedure working perfectly. Now I am encountering the most bizarre thing. Since the "select list with submit" was not working (I used the same code that gets generated when I created other items using htmlDB's GUI) I decided to use a JavaScript function instead that gets triggered by the onChange event. I send along the value that is currently selected in the select list and in the function I set:
location.href='http://www.myoraclesite.com/pls/htmldb/f?p=111:21:729740000000000000::NO::P21_DEPARTMENTS:1';
In theory this should work. The problem is that it doesn't. The page reloads and the P21_DEPARTMENTS select list is not pre-selected.
The only thing I can think of is that when htmlDB generates page items that you've created with it's own admin tool it assigns some internal guid or something as opposed to when someone tries to generate dynamic page items of their own from a pl/sql procedure it's like the application doesn't even know they exist.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
My only other solution would be to create a totally separate page (one for admin and another for non-admin). I would really like to avoid this.
Thanks in advance.

I would love to be able to generate my menus and
various other items in my htmlDB applications in much
the same way I can using ASP, PHP and Cold Fusion.
Users should have the ability to write server-side
code wherever they feel like it. The way htmlDB works
right now I spend more time trying to figure out how
to create simple effects and generate simple
interfaces when I need to be building a portal. Ami - it's important to understand that HTML DB is not like other languages. Thus, trying to force concepts which are common in other languages into HTML DB will often result in more work.
It's definitely worth the time to go over the HTML DB 2-day Developer, which can be found here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/pdf/B14377_01.pdf
I can build a portal using Classic ASP, C#, PHP or Cold
Fusion in like 1/10 of the time that it takes me to
build one using htmlDB. I understand that this is not
meant for the hard-core programmer but no web
programming application in today's day and age should
prevent experts from getting under the hood.And I can build a Portal in HTML DB in 1/10 the time it will take me to do it in any other language. It's like anything else - proficiency comes with practice and work.
As for getting under the hood, there is plenty of places you can do that with HTML DB. Keep in mind that HTML DB itself is an HTML DB application, so the limits on what you can build with HTML DB are virtually limitless.
Sorry for the vent there. After spending the last 2
days trying to figure out how to implement such a
straightforward thing and now being informed that it
can't be done kind of bugged me.I understand your frustration, as I've been there before. My rule for beginners is that if you are writing more than a line or two of code in the first week, you're doing something wrong. Stop, take a break, and then use the ample resources (including searching this forum) to help solve your problem. There are plenty of resources available for you to learn about HTML DB on the HTML DB home page: http://otn.oracle.com/htmldb
Good luck,

How can I create a page item at a certain LEVEL within a layer?

I mean, if I have one frame that I brought to the front, and one that I sent to the back, can I create an item that is between the two? Right now everything I create is automatically on top, and I have to do some scripting to figure out where the other items are at, and then step the new item back, back, back, etc. until I get to where I want, testing at every step to see if it's gone too far.
I can't find a property I can set to move a page item directly to the place in the front-to-back order that I want.
Am I missing something?

Z-ordering is not maintained in scripting properties, but you can use methods. Let's assume topframe and newframe. You can then use newframe.sendToBack(topframe);. Note that this is distinct from newframe.sendToBack(), which sends it all the way back. Check the docs, there are also some requirements for co-parantage between topframe and newframe.
