Placement Algorithm wanted

Folks'es,
i need to write an application that displays the objects of a database in a nice tree/graph style.
i have everything i need, except for a neat placement algorithm, that puts the object icons nicely on the screen.
anybody implemented something like this and is willing to share?
anybody has useful pointers where i can find code examples (i read all the papers...;)
tia,
thomas

Jusko,
I agree, it is definitely a bug, I just hope to not stumble on revealing it again. Meanwhile, I got an email from tech support:
"I understand that the #at numbered markers# option is not available when using the #automate to sequence# feature.
I see that by creating a new user account, that you have resolved this
issue. That#s great news. Often times problems in software is the result
of corrupted permissions on a user account. I recommend that you
continue to work under the new account."
I like your idea better. I'd rather delete a file than create a new user ID every time I run into this problem. Meanwhile, I've copied my latest good config file so I can fall back on it after deleting the corrupted one.
As an aside, here's the path to the config file on my PC:
"C:\Documents and Settings\Sid\Desktop\Adobe CS3\Adobe Premiere Pro CS3".
Thanks again for all your help!
Sid

  • Icloud stoped to backup my iphone. i have 10 GB free but it says i dont have enought place. dont want to buy more space im already paying for space

    please tell me what to do.

    You can reduce your iCloud storage to make more room (as discussed here: Manage your iCloud storage), or turn off iCloud backup and start backing up to your computer using iTunes instead.

  • I want to see multiple pins on Maps app.  Is this possible?

    Basically, I would love to be able to click on Maps app on my iphone, and depending on where I am, see the map and any bookmarks I have saved in my phone.  For example, if I wanted to pin all my contacts on a map and see pins on where they are, but ALWAYS stay there.  It's also usefull for places you want to remember, that you walk by, for example.  I want the pins to stay there..even if I exit the map.  Let's say for example I have errands to run.  So I look up the 6 places I need to go to on my bike, then make pins for them so the next day I can open up my maps app and, voila, there they are.
    I've tried bookmarking pins, but this doesn't work.  After a while the pins disappear.  Does anyone know of a way to do this?
    Thanks!

    I would LOVE a solution that allowed to see, perhaps greenish pins? that pull from your bookmarks. I usually drop a pin when i find a handy wifey. SSID+Street & Street

  • How to implement Modbus Ethernet communicat​ion in Lookout, if we want to simulate the PC as PLC ?

    Problem Description :
    Dear Sir,
    We are doing a project where we are using Lookout with
    Front end Modicon PLC. The communication is by
    Ethernet, using Modbus.
    Since the installation is at a distant place, we wanted
    to use another PC (running Lookout) to simulate the
    PLC. For this, we tried to communicate
    a: the server Lookout PC running Modbus Ethernet mode of
    Modbus object as Master
    b: with another PC (for simulating the PLC) running
    Modbus Slave
    We did not get any communication. (we have given the
    details of what we have done, at the end of this email)
    We also tried connecting the above 2 PC's as
    a: the server Lookout PC running Modbus Serial mode of
    Modbus object as Master
    b: with another PC (for simulating the PLC) running
    Modbus Slave object
    Again we did not get any communication.
    If instead of PC (b) we connect the Modbus simulator to
    PC (a), there is no problem in communicating
    Please let us know how to go about establishing the
    communication between 2 PC's using Modbus serial,
    and Modbus Ethernet. A detailed step by step procedure
    would help us a lot.
    Thanking you
    Warm Regards

    Procedure of our trial with ethernet.
    This is what we have done in detail.
    On PC A:
    We created an object (Pot) and connected it to
    the modbus data member of the modbus object say 40001. In the
    properties of the modbus object we selected modbus ethernet mode
    of communication and in the IP address field we wrote the IP
    address of the machine B to which we are trying to communicate
    i.e. 152.63.50.2.
    On PC B: we tried the following two methods
    Trial 1 : We created a modbus slave object and
    inserted an expression for the same data memeber to which the
    object was connected hoping to get the value of the pot of machine
    A on machine B.
    Trial 2 : We created a modbus object on machine B and we wrote
    the IP address of machine A and inserted an expression for the
    same datamemeber to which the object was connected hoping to get
    the value of the pot of machine A on machine B.

    The ModbusSlave which comes with Lookout currently supports only Serial communication. So, you cannot use Ethernet between your two PCs. At least not with Modbus Master-Slave setup (if you must speak Ethernet between the two PCs, IPASCII object lets you do that, but then you'll need to implement your own protocol).
    Since all you want to do is simulate a Modbus PLC on a PC, you can use the Serial mode of communication for now. And later on just modify the Object in your Server Lookout to use the Ethernet mode.
    For setting up a Serial Modbus Slave, use a null-modem cable between the two PCs (lines 2 and 3 are swapped). On your PC 'B,' create the Modbus Slave object with the right COM port for that PC. And on your PC 'A' create the regular Modbus Object as if you w
    ere connecting to the Modbus Simulator box. The only difference here is the cable. The simulator box uses a straight-through cable whereas the Slave needs a null-modem cable.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

  • I'm trying to edit a talking head video and want to find an straightforward way to mark a spot at the end of a statement and then cut the clip at that point. Can you help? thanks.

    I'm trying to edit a talking head video and want to find an straightforward way to mark a spot at the end of a statement made by the subject and then cut the clip at that point. Can you help? Thanks.

    I don't know how to mark a clip the way you want without adding an audio clip and putting in markers and then splitting the clip. You would think that hitting M would be the logical way to do things, but...
    But, one can just click before the place one wants to edit, hit the spacebar and hit it again when the exact place is reached. Then go to the clip menu and click split clip. That works, but one really needs to keep the cursor out of both the timeline and the event browser, or the place in the timeline gets changed..
    Are you really still using iMovie 08? That drove me nuts...a year later iMovie 09 came out with some needed improvements, and iMovie 11 with its audio adjustments is even better.
    Personally, I edit iMovie with kind of a meat axe. I grab whole chunks of video and put it into the project, then edit the ends to get the frame I want. I got too frustrated otherwise.

  • How can I change the order of photos in iPhoto so I can create the slide show I want?

    How to change the order of photos in iPhoto on my iPad, so I can create the slide show I want.

    Here's what I did to generate a slide show with Ken Burns effect on the iPad...with the exact same slide order I created on the iMac.  I have iOS 5.5 and iPhoto App on New iPad, and iPhoto 11 on iMac.
    In iPhoto for the Mac, create a new Album and give it the name of your Slide Show. Drag or import the photos you want into the album.  Rearrange the order of the album photos as desired. Do this by selecting Manual Sort under View/Sort Photos or simply start dragging thumbnails to the places you want them (the sort method will automatically change to Manual). 
    When you have the order you want, shut down iPhoto on the Mac to make sure iPhoto's database gets updated with the new photos and their order. 
    Restart iPhoto and go to File/Export on the top menu.  Select File Export at the top left of the Export window. Set JPEG quality to Max, Size to Full Size, and File Name to Album Name and Number.  Set Subfolder Format to None.
    Click Export to bring up what looks like the Finder.  Create an empty folder on your hard drive under Pictures and give it the name of your slide show. Click on the new folder and then click OK at the bottom right of the Finder-like window.  The new folder will contain JPEG files with file names in the form, Album Name - 001.jpeg, Album Name - 002.jpeg, etc.  There will also be an iPOD Photo Cache folder.  Click at the top of the Name column to order files by file name.  001 will be your first slide, 002 your second, etc.
    Now start up iTunes. You are going to force the Mac to sync these new photos with the iPad.  Click on your iPad device in the list at the left.  Now click on the Photo button at top right. Make sure the Sync Photos check box at top is checked, then select Choose Folder... from the list at right.  In the Finder-like window that opens, select the folder where your slides are.  Make sure that All Folders is checked, then select Open at the bottom right.
    Now click Sync at bottom right.  The slides will be copied to your iPad.  Both the Photos app and the iPhoto app will properly handle the slide order, and the Ken Burns effect is available using the iPhoto app.
    I ran across this problem in preparing a Ken Burns slide show for a wedding.  Drove me nuts for a week why the order changes when syncing an iPhoto album from iMac to iPad.  But this worked and gave me several options.  I plan to use the digital AV adapter for iPad and show slides on a large screen TV using HDMI connection from iPad to TV.  TV essentially acts as an external monitor for the iPad.
    Hope this helps!

  • Calculated Key Figures Decimal Place Error

    Hi Experts,
    Wonder if there is anybody to help me out to explain why I am having a problem on the calculated key figures decimal places when if I report on the components of the calculated key figure (restricted key figure) are working correctly?
    The calculated key figure is a boolean formula made up of 2 restricted key figures.  The 2 restricted key figure are having 2 decimal place (one is 0.36 another is 0.00).  In the current condition, the 2 restricted key figure just sums up - 0.36 + 0.00 = 0.36.  However the calculated key figure displayed as 0.359999 (6 decimal places) as the result.
    I am using BEx Analyzer Excel.

    Hi Fang,
    right mouse click on your KF and select properties. Then define the number of decimal places you want.
    Ciao.

  • Decimal Places of Key Figure not displaying Correctly

    Hi BW Gurus,
    I have a key Fig ZLENGTH of type Quantity. I am calculating length in Kilo Meters with this.When I am trying to load the data in my cube with flat file say if value for length is 8.123 Km it is showing in Cube 8.000 . As cklient requirement is for three decimal places I want to show exact value i.e. 8.123KM
    Pls. help. Matter Urgent
    Regards,
    MANDAR

    Hi,
    in CUNI select LENGTH in front of Units of Measurement, click the button and then double click the KM row to open its properties.
    Deciaml rounding should be empty there; if this is the case you'll have to simulate your update in order to see where the system is removing the decimals.
    Check that the original record in the PSA has decimals.
    Check that the communication structure record has decimals.
    Finally the data target record.
    It must happen somewhere in the dataflow.
    hope this helps...

  • Inscrease the decimal Places in Tcode QA32(UD)

    Hi Guys,
    I want to increases decimal point in Tcode QA32 .
    My user requirement is to increases the decimal places from 3 to 4 in Inspection lot stock / to be posted.
    We maintain 3 decimal places & I want 5 decimal places at the time of Usage Decision. But I couldn't found the required customizing setting.
    Please suggest me....

    Hello,
    Changing Data Types and Lengths of Existing Fields
    If a data element is assigned to the field, you must change the technical field attributes (data type, length, number of decimal places) in the domain of the data element.
    Procedure for Fields with Data Elements
    Double-click on the name of the data element.
    The data element maintenance screen appears.
    Double-click on the name of the domain.
    The domain maintenance screen appears.
    Choose Domain ® Display ® Change.
    Make the required changes and save your entries.
    Note that this change affects all the table fields that refer to the particular domain. Foreign keys could become inconsistent and conversions required. You should therefore consider the effects of this action before changing the domain by choosing in the maintenance screen of the domain and checking if the domain is used in other tables.
    Choose .
    The table is activated again and the table field is adjusted to the domain change.
    Procedure for Fields with Direct Type Entry
    Place the cursor on the field and choose Data element / Direct type.
    Values can now be entered in fields Data type, Length, DecPlaces and Short text.
    Change the entries for the data type, length and possibly the number of decimal places.
    Save your entries.
    Choose .
    Note that a table conversion will normally be necessary (see Adjusting Database Structures) if you change the field attributes
    NOTE: You need to have Access key.

  • Matlab 'place' command gives different result in Mathscript/Labview

    Hello,
    I am trying to implement a order reduced observer in Labview. First I used Labview blocks for programming but it happens that I get different results when I am using Matlab. For that reason I used Mathscript to make a simple 'place' command to check it. The result in Labview and Mathscript is the same, but not in Matlab...
    This is the instruction in Matlab:
    A22=[0.9024 0 0;0 0.8607 0; 0 0 0];
    A12=[0 0 0 ;0 0 0.0548;0.0417 0 0;0 -0.0417 0];
    K=place(A22',A12',[0.32 0.31 0.3]);
    Ko=K'
    Ko =
             0         0   13.9664         0
             0         0         0  -13.2062
             0   -5.4745         0         0
    And I have attached the VI where I do the test with Labview blocks and Mathscript. As you can see the result is not even close to be similar. Why is this produced? How can I fix it?
    Thank you a lot in advance!

    Hi,
    Indeed there are a lot of gains that places the poles on the desired locations. BUT, seeing as the Varga's SEAP algorithm is implemented, the G matrix is selected through a uniform white noise generator and the desired characteristics are verified (controllability). This does not unsure optimization regarding stability margins or disturbance rejection (sensitivity minimization regarding perturbations an matrix A or B).
    As an example, the system presented in this thread, the algorithm implemented in CD Pole Placement.vi computes an observer gain that determine a 7,4455 value for closed loop infinity norm. The place algorithm in Matlab computes an observer gain that determine a 2,8230 value for closed loop infinity norm, so better noise rejection or robustness.
