Questions on the ODT Tool enhancements

First of, great job on the ODT. It installed no problem and I like the new query window and the ability to run functions and procdures with test params. A couple of questions on the future of the product:
Are you guys going to be adding more functionality to the query window making it more like SQL*Plus?
Also is the an expected time frame for the PL/SQL Debugger and the .Net/CLR Extensions to the database?
Will there be sessions on the .Net/CLR extension at the upcoming Openworld?
Thanks in advance and keep up the great work,
Al

Are you guys going to be adding more functionality to the query window making it more like SQL*Plus?
Our goal is not to match SQL*Plus feature for feature, no.
If there are features that are missing that you wish were there, let me know.
Also is the an expected time frame for the PL/SQL Debugger and the .Net/CLR Extensions to the database?
PL/SQL Debugger - end of 2005
.NET/CLR Extensions - when Oracle 10g Database Release 2 for Windows ships
Will there be sessions on the .Net/CLR extension at the upcoming Openworld?
Almost certainly... I'll be demoing it at Teched Amsterdam in 3 weeks as well.

  • Are the ODT tools really included in ODAC 11.2 Release 3 (11.2.0.2.1)

    I have installed ODAC 11.2 Release 3 and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (11.2.0.2.1) using the download at http://download.oracle.com/auth/otn/other/ole-oo4o/ODTwithODAC112021.zip onto a PC running VS2010 running Windows XP Professional SP3.
    This has successfully installed the Oracle data providers and "ODAC Documentation for Visual Studio 2010" (which I can access and use successfully from within VS2010) but there is no sign of any of the ODT tools !
    I have tried digging into the install files and can find no evidence of the ODT install.
    Can anyone confirm (or not) that ODT is part of this install please ?

    Thanks for the updates - yes, I forgot to say that I am running VS2010 Premium, sorry.
    I don't get ODP.NET in Server Explorer, I only get the standard Microsoft providers (including Microsoft's Oracle provider).
    My OUI "installActions" log shows:

    Should I see ODT in there as a part of the inventory ?
    Could anyone point me at something in the VS configuration files that should reference ODT so that I can definitively say whether the tools have been installed and properly integrated.
    Thanks again.

  • Question regarding the pen tool (w/ picture inside)

    Hello everyone! I have a question regarding the pen tool. I think this picture is very helpful for my question:
    So in this pic is an orange rectangle and within that rectangle is a blue stripe. I would like the blue stripe to be perfectly flush (not over, and not under) the edge of the rectangle. For example, on the bottom end of the blue stripe, you can clearly see that the stripe does not extend far enough to the edge of the orange rectangle. At the top of the stripe, it goes a little bit over (a bit hard to see). I work with some complex shapes when using the pen tool and it is really slowing me down to compensate for over/under shapes. If it could just snap to the borders of other shapes it would make my life a lot easier. Thanks for reading and please help!

    A couple of thoughts come to mind:
    1.  You could create the shape "face on", using guides, and the points will snap to guides with snap enabled.  Then you could transform the whole thing together by selecting all the shape layers.
    2.  Holding down the shift key while dragging a point seems to cause it to snap to some things under some conditions. However, on having just tried to recreate what you're showing I didn't see the proper snap happening sometimes.
    3.  There's the full manual approach, of course where you zoom into thousands of percent and move the points by hand manually.  I assume this is what you're trying to avoid.

  • Newbie question: Using the pen tool

    Hi, I drew a shape with the pen tool in Flash CS4. When I double click on  the line it highlights the entire shape, but I can't fill for some  reason.  If I single click, only part of the line is highlighted (before it  changes angle). How can I get this line to connect as a shape to invoke  fill on it?
    Thanks, Mike

  • A little question about the pencil tool

    I have just a tiny guestion about the pencil tool in illustrator.
    When i want to draw like it is a real pencil and make a lot of lines with it, then everytime when i'm drawing lines are disappearing because i'm drawing it again.
    Maybe thats because i'm drawing over the other lines...but is there a simple way to make new lines all the time, so i can draw a bunch of lines over each other and agross etc.
    hope you understand my crappy english.
    with love,
    Linda

    Double click the pencil tool icon and check the options. You won't want to "edit selected paths"

  • (CS4) Question about the gradient tool

    There was a time when the default behavior for the gradient tool was "foreground to transparent"
    Then, at some point, the default behavior became "repeat last gradient" - even if the last gradient was an FX applied to a layer.
    I find the latter annoying as hell, and slowing me down considerably, in that I have to click on the gradient and manually select "foreground to transparent" every time I need to use it.
    Is there any way to change this default behavior?
    Thanks!

    Nope. I filed a bug report on this way back then, but apparently it was not important enough to be changed back in a patch update.

  • Three questions about the developer tools

    At my company we have evaluated this very handy tool, and we have only three questions...
    * Will the autocomplete feature be more intelligent. For example pl/sql developer recognize partially written table names and suggest a full name.
    * How to debug and step through the procedures?? This is a MUST!!!!
    * Is it possible to add source control integration (source safe) for the packages/procedures?
    With these features, it will be super!!
    /henrik

    When I was at the VSLive in San Francisco back in February, I spent some time at the Oracle booth and I asked for Source Control also.
    I was told to my happy suprise that lots of other developers had been asking for that also but I was shocked when the Oracle reps told me that they didn't understand why people would want this feature or how they would use it. They tried to convince me that "Generate Create Script" was what I wanted.
    Btw, "Generate Create Script" ticks me off. It always sticks the package owner in the create script and when I check it back in VSS I have to go in and edit it back out!!!
    It seems to me that the mindset behind many Oracle tools is to work "on the database". I will admit that I don't use many Oracle tools. I used Procedure builder a few times but thats about it. To me it seemed pretty clunky, but it was nice to be able to debug a stored procedure. Or it was until you crashed the SP and it became locked in the database and un-updatable without a bounce ;)
    Most developers that I know, prefer to work "on their hard-drives" and publish to the database or some variation on that.
    I would love to see a tool for editing SPs and Packages where I could check out my code, make a change, compile it on the DB, and check my changes back into the source control. One more catch, we use VSS's ability to update the version number in a source code file on check-in so the version that ends up in the DB should have the "new" version number in the comment header.
    Also, the "Auto Code Generation" tool is not geared towards the type of code I write. I thought we were supposed to get away from writing data access code in our forms? Yet, this tool throws all kinds of stuff in for doing just that and no tools to make it easier (that I could find) to create a data acces layer for wrapping my stored procedures and packages. Where are these tools, Oracle? Help us write better code, not worse.
    The autocomplete is nice, but I have trouble with it. For example, if I type a table name and "." it will bring up all the columns in the table. If I type "R" it scrolls to the first column that starts with "R". But if I type "S" next, instead of scrolling to the first column that starts with "RS" it spits out the currently selected column and sticks an "S" on the end. Other times it doesn't work at all.
    The "Query" window is next to useless. It should work more like a SQL Plus (DOS) window. Or at the very least more like a SQL Server Query Analyzer Query window. I'll keep my SQL Plus until this is way better.
    Hopefully the next version (or 2 or 3) will be better. I hope Oracle is listening. They did acknowledge that other developers were asking for some of the same improvements.

  • Could you please enhance the pencil tool? Thanks!

    I saw somewhere online that Acrobat provides good support for tablet computers and O.S. However, there is no good tool to let tablet user to write by hand.
    The pencil tool seems good, but when I use it to write, the first stroke will be moved/selected when I start the second stroke, which makes writing continuously impossible/difficult.
    Could you enhance the pencil tool to facilitate the hand-writing? Thanks a lot! Hope acrobat gets better!
    If you have any questions, you can reach me freely.

  • How do I select a square brush for the brush tool in CS6?  Sorry if this is a simple question, but nothing has ever been simple for me in Photoshop.

    How do I select a square brush for the brush tool in CS6?  Sorry if this is a simple question, but nothing has ever been simple for me in Photoshop.

    I don't believe there is a square brush among the sets that ship with Photoshop, but there are plenty to download, and it is super easy to make one.
    Just drag with the rectangular Marquee tool, fill with black on a new layer, and go Edit > Define brush preset

  • Question about the animated Pen tool

    Hi,
    ive a question about the animated pen-tool.
    i draw a word, but my hand isnt very calm, so the result is what you see on the screenshot.
    Is there a possibility to reduce the points on the animated pen tool like in illustrator?
    i know in illustrator its possible, but i didnt found anything in after effects to do it.
    thanks for your help

    If you are using the Paint tools those options don't exist in After Effects. The only work around is to set a keyframe for the brush path, copy the keyframe, then go to Illustrator and in a blank document the same size as your layer paste. Once in Illustrator you can simplify the path, select it, copy it, then go back to After Effects and select the same keyframe then paste. If you get a mask instead of a new path delete the mask path, make sure you have only the original brush path keyframe selected, then go to Edit>Paste from the menu.
    It doesn't look like you're drawing a mask path. That might be a better way to go.

  • A question about using the history tool after using the extraction tool in photoshop cs3..

    For example:
    http://www.layersmagazine.com/photoshop-...
    When I use the history tool, it erases the image instead. Whats up with that?

    G'day Chris
    I can't tell from the link exactly which tutorial you mean!
    If the original layer is a white background and the snapshot is set to this then the history tool will paint back white even if you then paste or drag an image onto the layer above this.
    You would have to take a seperate snapshot of your image layer and set this layer as the snapshot you want the history tool to use before you start working on it.
    One neat thing you can do is if you paint back some detail with the history brush you can immediately go to Edit > Fade and fine tune how much of the effect you want to apply.
    Hope this helps.
    regards
    John

  • Actually I have two questions one, can the lasso tool be anti aliased? And is the Wacom creative stylus 2 supported on the app

    iI'm thinking about buying the app, but I NEED to know if it's gonna work for me

    ps touch has stylus support, but the only stylus I know that definitely works is the S-pen.
    as for the lasso tool: it can be done indirectly.
    make a selection using any selection tool, and then use the "feather" option to soften the edges of your selection.

  • Using the pen tool question

    How do I stop the pen tool from wanting to add to paths under what I'm trying to draw when it touches another anchor point?

    Ridiculous as it is, in Illustrator you are actually supposed to:
    1. Mousedown some distance away from where you want the new path to begin (away from the endpoint of the unselected pre-existing path).
    2. Press and hold the Spacebar.
    3. Drag to where you want the new path to begin. Mouseup. (The point will be placed without the infernal auto-join behavior.)
    4. Release the Spacebar.
    The Pen has no business affecting unselected paths by default. It violates the entire meaning of selection. Worst-of-class Bezier drawing interface.

  • The Move Tool ? Is it working right in this example? newbie question

    I'm new to photoshop. I'm trying the 30 day trial. I am doing the 2nd lesson from the book, Adobe Photoshop CS4 by Adobe. Its the lesson with the "Pitch In" post card where you type some text on the picture with the horizontal text tool.(Lesson 01, "01B_Start.psd")
    Then the book directs you to use the move tool to move the text to the sandy area of the picture. I followed each step meticulously, but after I move the text, it continues to be selected (quivering) and the original text stays where it was originally typed, leaving two separate lines of text.
    The book shows in its example, the text *moves*. On my machine, it appears that it just copies the text rather than moves it. What am I doing wrong or is there something wrong with CS4 as I've read a lot of bad things about it being buggy.
    RK

    This is the WORST software program I've ever encountered!
    It doesn't do anything the way the book describes.
    Book next states on page 24:
    "The text color in your image is the same as the foreground color.... You'll color the text by selecting it and then choosing another color.
    1. In the Tools panel, select the Horizontal Type tool. [I did]
    2. Drag the Horizontal Type tool across the text to select all the words. [It then shows a picture of hightlighted/selected text similiar to many other text editing software which you select in that fashion. I try it but it will not work.] It then states:
    3. In the Color panel group, click the Swatches table to bring that panel forward.
    4. Select any swatch. The color you select appears in three places: as the foreground color in the Tools panel, in the text color swatch in the option bar, and in the text you typed in the image window...
    That's how easy it is to select a color in Photoshop. "
    HA!! Easy my foot! Yeah, it'd be easy if the program worked!
    NONE of that works! If you follow those steps, the text is not highlighted, but instead the horizontal text tool draws a text box! No way that I can find to select and highlight that text to change its color. And as I stated in previous post, the original text that I "moved" is still there - not moved, but copied! The text will not change color.
    This program is krap! I'd be really ticked off if I had bought it. As it is I need to try to return the book I wasted $35 on!!
