Presenter Project start

Hi,
I intend to create a presentation software for displaying 2D Graphics switchable in a Swing window or over the full screen (without frame).
Does somebody know about open source or other libraries which could help me with that?
Thanks
Klaus

Swing on its own should be able to do the window/full screen bit (via the full screen API which should be documented on this site).
For the 2D graphics aspect you may find that SVG is suitable. Batik might offer a good means of rendering that to your window or full-screen component.
Hope this helps.

Presenter project's "Master" file is Huge! Causing slow loading?

I have just finished several presenter projects for a client, and all work fine, except for the loading time of one.
First off: all of them work fine on my computer. They load quickly and get right to work. When I upload them to a website (not the final destination, but my own FTP folder), they also work fine. But one takes a long time to load - about a minute. This occurs every time I try to view it. Eventually it starts up and then performs as it is supposed to.
I have re-loaded the files, and have re-created the presentation. It still loads after about a minute, and that's with my relatively fast DSL speed.
I have examined the insides and discovered this one difference between it and the others: The "Master" file, located within the data folder in huge at 68,085 kb. (The actual name of the file is "Master80000000." All the Master files have a number or number-letter name.) The other five presentations have Master files of 6kb, 1kb, 1kb, 6kb, and 180kb.
Obviously this Master file has a range of sizes, but why is the one ten thousand times bigger than most of the rest?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Jorma,
Thank you for your answer. I had actually discovered the Master File in this PowerPoint presentation. It would help to know that I did not create this presentation, nor am I fully experienced in Powerpoint. I am learning as I go along, though.
So, I discovered the Master Slide had an image as the background, and it seemed to be a large resoultion image. It also seemed to be fully covered up by the content of every slide. I think that the creator of this presentation uses this as his master slide and just covers it if he doesn't want it showing. At any rate, I changed the image to a simple color gradient and saved it. Saving took several seconds. When I go back to the slide master, I can see no trace of the image.
However, exporting a new presentation did not result in a master file (in the data folder) that was any smaller. It was exactly the same, in fact. I think that Presenter has the content stuck in its memory and wont let go.
Do you know how I might totally re-set the master slide in PPT to make sure the master file in Presenter does not come out so large? Is there perhaps any other info that is contained in the master file?
I have alleviated the problem by changing my output setting from high quality to medium. The master file comes out at 2,000 kb. Still much larger than others, but at least it doesn't take a minute to load.

IN SD project starts from which phase?

IN SD project starts from which phase? End in which phase?

dear srinivas,
for any project there are 5 phases which are calling as ASAP methodology
project preparation is the first phase planning about that project which is the starting phase
golive and support ( which call as continious improvement ) is the last phase

Can't reset project start point

I decided to add a four bar introduction to a song in logic, and dragged the 'project start' point back to -3 bars. Then I realised when I bounced, it began from 0, so I just selected all and moved everything forward four bars.
Now, I know I could have used cycle to set my own start and end points for the bounce, but now that I have everything starting at 0, why can I not bring back the project start point to 0? It stays at -3, and I hate having to wait 4 bars for my song to start after I hit O to play the song from the top.
Can anyone help? Many, many thanks if possible. I'm extremely frustrated!

Because there maybe is Automation happening before the 1 1 1 1 point. So open any Automation event list with a Keycommand - hit command+1 - a new Arrange page opens displaying the Automation regions - cut those regions at 1 1 1 1 with the scissor tool or by selecting them all and using the Keycommand for "cut at playhead position" and then delete everything before 1 1 1 1.

Video not displaying correctly in published presenter project

So I created a presenter project that is basically a series of video clips. I went in and replaced one of the video clips, and when I republished, all of the sudden the video was cropped weirdly and filled up one corner of the screen instead of the entire section. Any ideas on why this is happening? In the powerpoint view, the video should cover the entire slide, it's just when I publish it for playback that this problem appears.

when you publish a project, other files that you did place manual in the folder ( like video files), don't get inside the published files, you have to copy the video from the source files to the published files

Project started from past

Dear all,
Could you help me on the following question?
Generally speaking, the start date of the project is today.
Now, my project started more than one year ago.
Although I set the start date of the project in 2006, the basic time of the network and activities still starts from today.
How can I make the activities and network start from 2006? How should I configure the scheduling? Please give me some clues.
Thanks a lot.
Judy

In Planning Board under Settings->options, set "Start in the past" greater than 365 and run scheduling. When this entry is blank system rum todays schedule and reset the date to current date.

I can't not set Poject Start Point, as described on p 151 of manual. "You can move the project start point to an earlier position" . Can anyone do this?

I'm unable to change the Project Start Point. ( I can change the end point easily)
On page 151 of the manual it states:
"You can move the project start point to an earlier position..."
I can't find a way to do it. Are other able to change it. If so, please explain the procedure.

Mmmmm,…..I just noticed this as well…….
Anyway, try this:
For the sake of this demonstration start a new project.
Click the mouse pointer on the playhead in the ruler,
now the project start indicator should appear, hover the mouse pointer above it until this indicator appears,
when you see it left click, hold and scroll to the left.
Good luck!

Unable to Change Project Start Date in Project Server 2013

Dear All,
I have created new EPT in Project Server 2013. After that, when i am creating any new project in PWA 2013 by using newly created EPT, then i am not able to change Date as per my requirement.
Basically, EPT created on 02/18/2015 & even though i am changing Project start date then its again showing same date (02/18/2015)
Kindly suggest what i can do.

Hello,
Does this new EPT have a project plan template associated? What happens if you set the EPT not to have a plan template then create a new project from this EPT? Does that let you update the start date? The start date should default to today (date the project
plan was created). If that works as expected, add the plan template back to the EPT (if you had one to start with) and test creating another project to see if that then works or you then get the same behaviour. This will point us to the cause hopefully.
Do other EPTs work as expected?

OBIEE 10.1.3.2 version : 404 error when presentation services started

Hi ,
Installed OBIEE 10.1.3.2 in windows 7 in compatilibily mode
And the BI server and presentation services started.
then started the ocj4 instance and then started the presentation services but it resulted in a 404 error webpage instead of answers.
Page referred is :
http://user-pc:9704/analytics
Normally its a localhost is what I see but this is different.
Please guide me in identifying what went wrong
Thanks,
Karthik M

I have the identical error message.
It is definitely a bug. If anyone can prove me wrong, I'd be interested to hear.
It comes up under certain scenarios.
I have four metrics:
"Sales" from sales table. Normal Summing Aggregation.
"Markdown" from markdown table. Normal Summing Aggregation.
"Test Metric" from inventory table. Normal Summing Aggregation.
"Stock on Hand" from inventory table. Dimensional summing. LAST for time. Sum for all Other dimensions. (You don't add up the stock on hand for each day during the month, you look at your final position)
I can do anything with the first three metrics and never see the error message.
If I try to create a report:
Product, Time, Stock on Hand, Sales, Markdown
Then I see the error message.
I can force the error to disapear by doing either of the following:
A) If I move the Stock on Hand to the right so the report is:
Product, Time, Sales, Markdown, Stock on Hand
B) If I put "Test metric" anywhere on the report, then I no longer see the error message.
There is a bug with the LAST aggregation function. I think the LAST time function would be a similiar sort of logic to YTD, AGO, etc... as noted above.
Given from what I've seen, the only temporary workaround seems to be to add an extra metric to the report or to move certain metrics to the right side.

I don't have a project start arrow - can only slide the project end arrow.

I don't know if there is a simple solution, but I haven't been able to locate the project start adjustable arrow anywhere. So it's locked at 1.1.1.1 but I can adjust the end.

I seem to have found the solution...checking the Show Advanced Tools under general allows you to affect project starting.

Project Start Date – modification after project was saved.

I created new project with a start date 01/April/2015 and saved it. Next, I change the start date to 14/April/2015 in the setup.
However still in statistics windows I see the start date as 01/April/2015. Additionally, every new task has start date 01/April/2015.
Could you please advise me how can I change that?

MS Project Standard 2013

Thank you for your prompt reply.
1.Firstly I set up project start date as 01/04/2015 in Project, Project Information and in File, Project Information and save document.
2. Afterwards, I modified start date into 14/04/2015 in the same places.
However, the date in Project, Project Information - Statistics was still 01/04/2015 (please check screenshot).
3. But finally, after several openings and closing of the document the date in Statistics is correct (hard to say what is the reason).

Project Start and End Features - Can Captivate Phone Home and Expire ?

Hi,
I am looking at selling a course which the client will host for a limited time
We want the course to expire and we would like to receive anonymous user data back with their permission.
Send data back to use : Phoning home
I was looking at the Project->start and end-> Project end options-> execute javascript
With our clients permission could we use this to open a URL and phone home or would we crash into a firewall and burst into flames ?
Why ?
============
We want to monitor anonymous data such as time on course , score and number of users to improve the course for all customers.
My other thought was to use this widget
http://captivatedev.com/shop/adobe-captivate-6-x-google-lms-widget-with-email-reporting/
Maybe I can run this at the same time as my customers normal LMS
Expire
I was looking at the Project->start and end-> Project expiry date.
Is this relatively secure and stable ?
Our other alternative was to throw a widget in which said this course has expired
Or could I have the course check a website to confirm the course is licensed ?
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated

Hi Rod,
Thank-you for your reply from Western Australia ( which I just realized is the closest point to Madagascar and King Julian)
I like the graphs on A3C but
http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2012/06/course-companion-for-adobe-captivate-6.html
- I couldn't work out how to get the A3C viewer to it display more than the first 20 pages.
- it had a 3 month limit on the course based on an Adobe comment on the blog
http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2012/06/course-companion-for-adobe-captivate-6.html
- I wasn't sure whether the reporting works with advanced actions because some of the reports run on item name
- Nobody seems to be commenting on it on the forums :-)
- There was a distraction % on the table which I couldn't work out what it was
- it was unclear what port had to be open for the A3C communication

Actvities before the Project Start Date

Every now & then, we will get an activity which is a precursor to a project kicking off as a project start date so in theory from that start date would be known as either week 1 or Month 1.
So in this case, any actvivity starting a month for example before the kick off date should be shown in "- Month 1" but in Project 2013, it takes this new date as Month 1 even when the Project Start Date has not changed.
The earlier versions of Project, you could manipulate this so what's changed?...Is there a way around this?
I am not using Project server as will never use it to save myself from grief & stress!...prefer to keep it simple!

I couldn't test it with 2013 but with 2010 the week numbering starts at the project start date, so you can have a project start date on a certain date which will be your week1, and then set predecessors with no impact on the numbering.
If you confirm that this behavior jas changed with 2013 version, an option could be to enter as manually scheduled tasks with no dates the tasks prior to the project start date, using custom fields to enter the actual dates.
Hope this helps,

Help scheduling tasks from both project start date and from later deliverable dates

I am trying to set up a project scheduling template for a number of similar projects.
These projects will require initial work to be completed at the project start date, working through the critical path to an end date.
However. Certain milestones/deliverables are required on specific dates in teh project (they are recievable by internal customers on firm dates). I am having trouble scheduling my predecessors for these deliverables to occur as late as possible.
I.e. I want my procurement to start x-weeks (depending on the task) before the deliverable is due.
Trying to manually set the deliverable date and hoping project will work back and adjust the predecessors to fit isnt quite working... is this possible?
Im using MSP2010 standard

nategalambos,
Actually this is probably a very common scheduling scenario. Schedules often have interim milestones, sometimes with fixed dates.
Just-in-time scheduling has received a fair amount of press in the past but in my view it has some very real negative downsides. I believe the best plans have contingency built in to allow for unknown problems. For example, let's say you have a task that
must deliver an item on a particular date and in order to build that item you need to order material. You know the built and test time, it's all done by machine, takes 10 days, and doesn't vary from item to item. The lead time for the material is 6 weeks,
so you set up the schedule to place the material order 8 weeks before the delivery date. However, there is a problem, the vendor who supplies the material has a problem at his factory and the material is delayed such that it won't be delivered in 6 weeks but
instead it will take 8 weeks. Because you have not allowed for contingency in your plan, your delivery date is now in jeopardy.
But to answer your question, one way to set up the predecessor you want is as follows. Using my example above, the Place Order task, let's say the delivery date task is task ID 5 and is a milestone. The place order task could have a predecessor of 5SF-40d,
or 5FS-40d will also work if the place order task and the delivery date are both milestones.
Hope this helps.
