Read a number from a variable, and rotate a shape

Hey all,
I'm using the variables panel in Illustrator to pull a data set I've got.
For example there's 2 text variables and 1 number going from 0-359. I'm looking for a script which looks at the variable name and pulls the number, then uses that number to rotate a shape by that many degrees.
I have no experience in scripting in illustrator, just hoping there's a wizard here who might be able to help?
Thanks for any help,
Dave

IMO you either use the app's data driven graphics or script… to do this sort of work easier than trying to work with both… My guess would be to just read a CSV or TDT text file and do rotation your stuff… There are plenty of CSV examples in this forum ( should the crappy search work )

What are the commands available to read a file from application server and

What are the commands available to read a file from application server and store the file into an internal table?

Hi,
To read a file from an Application Server to an Object there is a command in ABAP called READ DATASET. After that file is transported to that object you have to do a loop and put that data in an Internal Table.
This statement exports data from the file specified in dset into the data object dobj. For dobj, variables with elementary data types and flat structures can be specified. In Unicode programs, dobj must be character-type if the file was opened as a text file.
For dset, a character-type data object is expected - that is, an object that contains the platform-specific name of the file. The content is read from the file starting from the current file pointer. After the data transfer, the file pointer is positioned after the section that was read. Using the MAXIMUM LENGTH addition, the number of characters or bytes to be read from the file can be limited. Using ACTUAL LENGTH, the number of characters or bytes actually used can be determined.
In a Unicode program, the file must be opened with an arbitrary access type; otherwise, an exception that cannot be handled will be triggered.
If the file has not yet been opened in anon-Unicode program, it will be implicitly opened as a binary file for read access using the statement
OPEN DATASET dset FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
. If a non-existing file is accessed, an exception that can be handled can be triggered.
Influence of Access Type
Files can be read independently of the access type. Whether data can be read or not depends solely on the position of the file pointer. If the latter is at the end of the file or after the file, no data can be read and sy-subrc will be set to 4.
Influence of the Storage Type
The import function will take place irrespective of the storage type in which the file was opened with the statement OPEN DATASET.
If the file was opened as a text file or as a legacy text file, the data is normally read from the current position of the file pointer to the next end-of-line marking, and the file pointer is positioned after the end-of-line marking. If the data object dobj is too short for the number of read characters, the superfluous characters and bytes are cut off. If it is longer, it will be filled with blanks to the right.
If the file was opened as a binary file or as a legacy-binary file, as much data is read that fits into the data object dobj. If the data object dobj is longer than the number of exported characters, it is filled with hexadecimal 0 on the right.
If the specified storage type makes conversion necessary, this is executed before the assignment to the data object dobj. Afterwards, the read data is placed, byte by byte, into the data object.
System Fields
sy-subrc Meaning
0 Data was read without reaching end of file.
4 Data was read and the end of the file was reached or there was an attempt to read after the end of the file.
Thanks,
Samantak.

In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text

Z10 HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
Help Please. It should be so simple but in the maze of approaches to contacts from the phone or home screen which ever way you get there; how do I select a phone number, copy it and paste it into a text message to another contact so that I can send it on?
The logic of the interface is totally baffling to me most of the time. Can't there just be one contacts interface so that when you enter it from anywhere it presents the same options to edit etc. Cannot the three blobs be called up to allow a proper edit menu - copy/cut/paste/delete.
Can the favourites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
Any help on any of these - much appreciated.

Hey jbee,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
How Do I copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
The only option would be to to select the edit option on the contact and hold your finger on the number and select the copy option on the left side panel.
Can the favorites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
This feature is currently not available.
Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
This feature is currently not available.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks.

Since downloading the new operating system on my iPhone 4S, I'm having trouble with my phone messaging. I enter a number or input a number from my contacts and send my message. I then receive a error message stating the message can't be sent and it shows a set of "1s" were added in front of the number I entered. Ex: 1 (1) xxx-xxx-xxxx. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

I realize this. When calling prepaid cus service it only gives you the option to input your #. If you dont the system hangs up on you. When I input my number the system doesnt recognize it and hangs up on me.

Error when determining a number from object BI_TSDTEL and number 01

Hi BW Experts,
After Transporting Infosources (Master & Transaction) to BW QA, the transfer rules were not getting activated in QA. The following error message was diaplyed.
"Error when determining a number from object BI_TSDTEL and number 01
Object name can only contain characters from syntactical character set

Error RSAR 440 when handling objects with type R3TR ISTS."
I have gone through the Note: 674818.
Could someone clear me about BI_TSDTEl, By using this do we need to maintain object intervals manually in all the systems like BW ( Dev & QA ), R/3 (Dev & QA).
Because I have not seen the Intervals in R/3 ( Dev & QA) systems.
please could someone provide Inputs for this.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
SK

Hi,
Try to see that transfer structure is existing in the sytem which is connecting in
the BW quality.
You need the same to be transported from the development server of R/3 to quality server of R/3.
Just check if this helps.

Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Win32 function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.

Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory from a VI? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Call Library function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.
The data is being received at 1Mbps.
Thanks

Two questions:
One, if it's a serial card, then presumably it gives you more serial ports, like COM3, COM4, etc. If so, VISA would see the COM ports, and not the card directly. The drivers for the card should make it so that you see the extra serial ports from the OS. If you don't see the extra COM ports from VISA, then it sounds like the drivers for the card are not installed properly. Do the extra COM ports show up in Device Manager?
Two, you said that you're using a Call Library function to get the data and you want to put it into system memory. Errr.... you just read the data and you have it in memory by definition. Are you saying you need a way to parse the data so it shows up on a graph or something?

Kinect Explorer WPF C# read depth data from the file and conversion to skeleton

Hello,
I am using Kinect sensor to do some research on biometrics. Since it is impossible to find people to collect some samples, I would like to use samples from the TUM - GAID database, where there exist Color View and Depth View (in .raw format) samples. Therefore,
I need to read these samples from the file and do a batch processing, instead of performing real-time collecting of samples (where I can take automatically the Skeleton view using the Kinect SDK). So, I need help on
1. Reading the data from the file (instead of activating the Kinect sensor) and give this data as an input for conversion to a skeleton
2. Read the .raw files
Thank you very much
Kind regards

Hiya,
I doubt this forum, C Sharp, will provide much help. You are asking about the Kinects system not C#
language. However, you can try this link; http://kinectforwindows.codeplex.com/
Hope this help. Thanks :)

I want to use ODI to read XML messages from JMS queue and then process it..

I want to use oracle ODI (Oracle Data Integrator) to read XML messages from JMS queue and then process it.. i also want to process and validate the data in it....
Could anyone please tell me the steps to achieve the same. I tried some ways which i got on OTN, but not able to implement it exactly...
As i m very new to ODI, it will be great if you provide detailed steps..

Hi,
Were you able to do it? We are facing this same issue now and, despite the fact the docs say otherwise, it does not seem to be a trivial task.

How to derive value from another variable and use it to read master data?

Hi,
I have following case:
First I need to read the value from Cost Center -variable (ZIPCC) and then I need to use that value to determine the home currency of that cost center from the cost center master data table (field: OBJ_CURR).
I know to basic idea on how to do this, but don't seem to get the syntax correct. Could someone point me in the right direction?
So the objects in play are:
ZIPCC = Cost center selection variable (mandatory, single value)
ZIPCUR = Cost Center Currency variable (customer exit, single value)
0COSTCENTER
0OBJ_CURR = Field in cost center master data
Help will be greatly appreciated!
-m

Hi,
Thank you very much for your example I can see that this logic works! However I'm experiencing trouble in selecting the 0OBJ_CURR
This kind of declaration isn't working: "D1 Like /BIC/0OBJ_CURR."
And the same goes for the Selection:
"Select single OBJ_CURR into D1 from /BI0/PCOSTCENTER where COSTCENTER = i_t_var_range-low."
This is where my syntax also went wrong.
0OBJ_CURR is a unit, is there a special way to declare it and use it in the code?
(and 0CURRENCY is a reference unit for 0OBJ_CURR).
Do you have adivce on this?
