Positioning with anchors

I want to know that if i am putting a anchor from a label to a frame, from where should i pull the anchor, it has to be from the edge of the bounding rectangle for the label and it cannot be from the center of the label. But when i run the report which has the anchor and the label as described above, the positining of the anchor with the label is getting distorted.
Please help in confirming my doubt that the anchor can be pulled only fron the edge of the bounding rectangle for the label.

Anchors maintain the relative position between objects. If you pull from the center of the label to the center of the frame then the label will move to always be in the center of the frame as the frame expands.
If you want to set the absolute position then, you are correct, you need to anchor to the appropriate edge of the object. You can bring up the property inspector agianst the anchor and set these values directly. Using the UI which may not give you the (0,0) values you may need.

Irregularity with anchor behaviour - inserting anchors in anchored frames

I am experiencing irregular behaviours with anchors and I'm not sure if it's a glitch or something I am overlooking. Sometimes it works, sometimes it dosen't, and I can't tell what is causing the difference.
What I want is an anchored text fram to a main body text - which is an imag caption - and from this text frame I create a new anchored image frame, in which I put the image I am referring to in the caption. Sometimes this process works smoothly, while other times, when I go to insert the anchor in the anchored text frame it re-routes me back to the main body text from where I came. I have tried different insertion points within the anchored text frame, but nothing seems to solve the problem in this scenario....
any ideas?
thanks!

Kat,
I hope I understand your problem correctly.
The paragraph containing the figure title is positioned in the side head with alignment set to Top Edge. Then that paragraph is followed by another paragraph, which of course is in the main text column, empty, and aligned at the top with the side head.
With the insertion point in the second paragraph, import the image file. This puts the image below the line. Select the image, not the anchored frame, and scale it if necessary. If not created at the correct size, you probably want to scale it down to fit the width of the text column. Now press the key sequence Esc, m, p (note m and p are lowercase). The anchored frame shrinks to fit tightly around the image and changes it position to At Insertion Point. If you turn on Text Symbols, you will see the end-of-paragraph symbol at the lower right edge of the image, and the top of the anchored frame will align with the TOP of the side head text.
You also have to be sure the line spacing of the paragraph holding the image is NOT fixed or Frame will move the image up.
Hope this is what you need,

Adding item positions with reference to contract in sales order

Hi all,
I would be very grateful if some of you could help on this:
I have a requirement to add lines with reference to a contract while the user is creating or modificating it via VA01 or VA02. The logic flow will be as follows:
if the user enters a new item position with reference to a contract, and the qty entered exceeds the qty in the position selected of the contract, we have to skip the standard error message and try to spli the quantities in several positions with the same material in the contract.
As an example:
the contract 000000000001 has 5 lines:
line     material       qty
01       mat1           100
02       mat1           50
03       mat1           50
04       mat2           n/a
05       mat2           n/a
if the user picks up the line 02 of the contract to create a new line in the sales order, and enters 180 as qty, the sap standard will raise an error, saying the qty has exceeded the contract qty. Ok, we have to skip that error (maybe could we set it as a warning??) and 'split' the qty as follows:
in the sales orders, 3 lines will be created automatically
line    material     qty
     mat1         100
     mat1         50
     mat1         30
and of course, the released quantities in the contract must be updated: i.e the contract should be as follows:
line     material       available qty
01       mat1           0
02       mat1           0
03       mat1           20
Any ideas? : )
What i've done by the moment is to check is that 'split' is possible, in userexit_save_document. If not (e.g. if the user enters 220 for mat1 in the previous example), a custom error will appear. If it is possible, then the sales order will be created (only with the line the uswer entered) and I will trigger somehow a FM processed in background to modify the sales order.
my question now is: how can i add lines to the created sales order, making reference to some contract lines?
I've seen BAPI BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 is used to create a document with reference, but can i use it to MODIFY an existing sales order?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks a lot for your help.
regards.

Hello,
there's a function module called 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE', which could change a sales order. The problem could be,that these BAPI's enque the salesorder. So if you start them in background via an userexit, you have to be sure that the salesorder is updated and dequeued by posting.
An other way could be to use the exit 'userexit_check_vbap' in MV45AFZB. It's called after creating a new position or changing a position. All existing positions at that time in a internal table 'XVBAP', which you could change. (But be carefull, that you don't create an endless loop !).
The check about the contract quantity is in a form routine called 'vbep-wmeng_pruefen_folgebeleg(sapfv45e)'.
Have a look into the form 'vbap_pruefen_ende' in FV45PFAP_VBAP_PRUEFEN_ENDE. There's the whole thing done including the call of the userexit.

Best Practices for image layout and positioning using anchored frames in Framemaker 10

Hi,
I'm looking for the best practices in how to layout my images in Framemaker 10 so that they translate correctly to Robohelp 9. I currently have images inside of Anchored frames that "Run into" the right side of my text. I've adjusted the size of the anchored frame so that my text flows correctly around the image. Everything looks good in Framemaker! Yeah! The problem is that when I link my Framemaker document to Robohelp, the text does not flow around my image in the same manner. On a couple of Robohelp screens the image is running into the footer. I'm wondering if I should be using tables in Framemaker in order to get the page layout that I'm looking for. Also, I went back and forth...is this a Framemaker question or is this a Robohelp question. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I wish I could offer some advice, rather than simply adding to your question. I think there is something odd that happens with anchored frames.
I have been going through fits trying to figure out why the placement of my graphics shifts when I run them through Frame 10-to-RoboHelp 9 conversion. The placement in our books is flush left to the body text area. However, when they convert, some are flush left, some are centered, and a very few are flush right. My boss is very unhappy with me, as I have been unable to figure out why this is happening. I didn't create these files, so I don't know if it's something that goes back to how the graphics were initially imported. But I can't figure out why everything looks right in Framemaker, with the frame attached to an anchor tag, etc. but the placement goes hinky when they convert.
Any insights are appreciated. I'm wondering if it's going to come down to deleting them and recreating the graphic frame.

Billing Document positions with zero

Hi Guys,
I am having an error when creating SD Billing Document. I have a sales order with some position with net value 0 and when I create the billing document I dont want this positions to be copied.
I know I can reject this positions on the sales order, but this process is something automatic and there is no control.
Is there anything I can do on the control copy to avoid copying values on 0 from sales order to billing document?
I hope you can hel me.
J. Garibaldi

Hi,
You can create a new item category " ZXXX"and make it as not relevant for billing in billing relavancefield and also maintain the item category determintaion settings.
Now when you have line item with 0 value change the item category to "ZXXX" and save the document . So when you create a billing for the respective sales order the particular line item with item cat as "ZXXX" will not be copied.
OR
You can create a new routine in the transaction VOFM and assign it in the copy control of order --> billing at item cat level.
Please go through the below link to create the new routine

Hope this will help you to resolve your issue!!

Active state not working in scrolling site (with anchor links)

I'm design a scrolling site with anchor links and an horizontal menu on the top.
when i publish the site and click on the menu buttons the site scrolling to the place of the anchor but the active state in the menu is not working.
now... when i leave the main page (were the scrolling site is) and then return back to it all active states are working perfectly
anyone have this bug? or any one know how to fix it ?

Hmmm...I've just been playing around, and I think I got the Active State to work correctly. I think my problem was not understand what Active State means.
To answer your question, I was changing the Font Color and Box Fill Color of the Active State.
I did not understand that Active State means the look of the Menu Item when the PAGE is active. I thought it meant the look of the Menu item when the cursor is scrolling down the Menu (i.e. when the MENU is Active, not the page).
Look at this page for an example of what I'm trying to achieve...
http://www.pgavdestinations.com
When you hover over the "Work" menu item, and move the cursor down the menu, the state of "Work" remains changed until you move the cursor off of that menu column. It does NOT return back to it's Normal state until you are off of that menu column.
Is there a way to achieve this with the menu states in Muse?
Thanks for the replies!

Acquire encoder position with Motion and DAQ

Hi,
I am trying to acquire an encoder position with Motion. It seems impossible to set the frequency of the acquisition with Motion and I must poll for the position in a do-while loop.
I have read in a lot of threads that one can use RTSI lines to retrieve encoder position with a DAQ Board though it is acquired with a Motion board. But there are no examples at all about this.
To sum up, I need to send Encoder Phase A to RTSI0, Encoder PhaseB to RTSI1 (which I already do), retrieve info with a DAQ device and then calculate rpm.
Christophe
PS: please don't answer with measure angular position.vi or explain me in what this Vi can help me

Hi Christophe,
I'm not sure I understood well what you need. You have the angular position and you need to know the timing, am I right? Can you use an other counter on your card to get the period (or the frequency) of your signal? From that, I think you should be able to calculate the velocity.
I hope this helps,

REReplaceNoCase to surround FQDN with anchor tag

Hey, everyone.
Getting ready to head home, for the day, but want to get this out there before I leave.
I'm trying to alter a LOT of PDF files. Need to make it so that all FQDNs in the PDF will be automatically surrounded by anchor tags so they can be opened if the PDF is viewed in FireFox with Adobe plugin.
Currently, FF10 with Adobe PDF plugin will NOT automatically parse hyperlinks like the Internet Explorer plugin will. I need to change that so that when a PDF is opened in FF10, the links will work when clicked.
I am thinking of using REReplaceNoCase() to find all FQDNs and surround them with anchor tags:
http://www.domain.com/path/to/document becomes <a href="http://www.domain.com/path/to/document">http://www.domain.com/path/to/document</a>
.. then use CFPDF to resave the PDF.
What do you think? If there's a better way, please let me know.
Thank you,
^_^

One last question.
In JavaScript, you can refer to things using $1, $2, etc. What is the CF equivalent? $1 isn't working.
Thank you,
^_^
UPDATE: This is going to be a bigger pain than originally thought. When the extracttext is inserted into a PDF variable, the links have spaces added to them:
https://www.domain.com/site/travel.cfm becomes https : / / www.domain.com / site / travel.com
UPDATE2: Nevermind.. honourspaces was on.

CS5 Live Caption Issue with Anchored Images

For some reason, InDesign will not let me add a live or static caption if it is anchored in the body. I can put it on the pasteboard and add it but not while it is anchored. Does anyone know of a work-around?

Hi Richard,
I have the same problem as you do. I'm working on user manuals, with hundreds of screen captures I want to flow with text. The Live caption feature is wonderful, only it does not work with anchored images! If anyone out there finds a way to deal with this issue, or knows of a patch or update to download...

English translation of the error in chinese is
"Wrong: Has not used the jurisdiction formula code"
When i takeoff the #2(the anchor) and refresh page loads without any errors.
How can i fix this issue while using the anchor tag.
Is it due to the charset i have used. The jsp page i am loading consists of several includes. all the pages I have defined content type as follws

How to distort a irregular shape with anchor points around it

Hi,
I want to skew the irregular shape with anchor points around it.If any body point any samples please help me.
with thanks,
Srinivas

If you want the fill to follow the boundary, here's one way to do it, more easily done than demonstrated:

My screen suddenly stopped changing its position with tilt ?

the screen wont change position with response to tilt like it used to...what could be the reason?

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If so, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

How can I disable or enable the keyboard and fix mouse's position with LaBVIEW?

Hi,
1. I'ld like to disable or enable the keyboard with LabVIEW.
2. I'ld like to fix the mouse's position with LabVIEW.
How can I do it?
Please advise.
Regards
Hork

For the keyboard, you could create a filtering event and discard the key change.
What do you mean by "fix the mouse position"? Warping or stalling the mouse is very bad UI form., the operator should always be in control of the cursor position. Could you explain what you want to do?

New positions with BAPI_DELIVERYPROCESSING_EXEC

Hi, Masters.
I've got a VBELN from tables LIPS and I must create new positions (the current POSNR + 1) using BAPI_DELIVERYPROCESSING_EXEC.
What I can do for add a position with this BAPI?
I didn't find any example, using LIPS...
Thanks a lot.

Have you read the documentation? And what have you tried to do so far?
