Really basic embeding problem

I am trying to duplicate a display for training pilots. The
display is a 14hi x 25wide grid. The font is 'Letter Gothic MT
Bold'.
Each character has equal widths and fits perfectly in the
grid, which is what I need. I also need the same font 3 points
smaller that also fits in the grid. I do this by selecting 1.8 A/V
(I guess this is like kerning) It works great with static text.
Unfortunately, I have to embed the font so the end user can
see it correctly. Thats where problems begin. I apparently can only
embed with Dynamic text which is OK. When I embed the font the 1.8
A/V (kerning) goes away and I lose all the alignment. I am
currently trying to use text variables and HTML coding to color the
letters and change the size of the characters.
I have to embed, I would like dynamic text, and I have to
change the color on individual characters.
I don't understand how flash manages text. I tried to find it
in the online docs and in this forum but no luck.
Any ideas?
Sorry, I'm still using Flash 7.
Thanks for helping.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I tried your suggestion. Apparently static text does auto
embed itself into the final swf. Since that is the case, I suppose
what I'm remembering must be that we used dynamic text and forgot
to embed.
It would be nice to use actionscript to control the text
content (ie. dynamic) then we don't have to be concerned with
messing up the alignment.
Thank you again for your help.

Really Basic Spry problem

I'm new to CS3. I'm using Dreamweaver, and I want to use the
Spry XML deatail region display. I followed the tutorial for the
Aquo example. When I transfer all of the files to my server, the
spry js effects don't work. No errors, just no function. I checked
the file paths and made sure they matched and that files were in
the right directories on the server. It seems like this must be
something so basic that it's not in the help files. Can anyone
help?

Without seeing your files, any answer is pure guesswork. Post
a URL to

Really basic folder problem

Cats          167
   Cats       167
     Cats       55
The 55 cat pictures are in the 167 folder. I just want
to remove the folder status from the 55 group, and let
them exist in the 2nd Cats folder. Actually, they could
ALL reside in the 1st folder, it's just a big holding tank
for the wifes cats photos. I hope that is all clear. Dale

Didn't work. Error message that the files already exist. The 55 files in the 55 folder are part of the top 167.
If I open my Pictures I have a folder CATS, opening that reveals 111 images of cats(!), and a folder of 55 more images.
In LR when I open the middle folder I see all 167, and if I open the bottom 55 folder I see the 55 emages already in the
167 group.   I just imported the 55 images, and have probable misnamed, or mis- directed their destination. I am going to
save the 55 to flash drive and delete the 55 folder and re-import them. It seems like a crude resolution. Thanks to all, Dale.

Really basic Install help needed, please.

Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, I've searched this whole forum and probably don't know enough to ask the right "search" questions because I haven't found the answers.
Over the past few months, I've been learning Linux as I now plan to switch from Windows to a Linux distro rather than go with a new computer and Windows 7 and the associated problems. I have tried several Linux distros individaully side by side with Windows XP on a partitioned drive.. Most recently I've been using Linux Mint 8 'Helena' and done lots with and to it. Linux Mint 9 'Isadora' was just released, and since upgrading for a non-rolling distro is a nuisance, I thought I'd try a rolling one. After review and recommendations, I thought I'd give Arch Linux a try. Since most of my computer use is music via a Jukebox (14+k files), browsing, email and info seeking, I don't need all the bells and whistles whith which many distros come. I'm not a gamer.
Basic Infor:
PC with 1.4GHz Athlon, 512 Ram, 320 G Hard Drive partitioned equally between Windows XP and Linux (hopefully Arch). High Speed DSL.
What I need are some really really basic instructions on a side by side install of Arch.
SOofar, I've got the clock set, and have partitioned my hard drive into
SDA 1 (my Windows Partition)(160 Gigs
SDA5 1200mb for my swap
SDA6 20 Gigs for the root
SDA7 130 (the rest) Gigs for home
What I need to know is darned near everything else.
Bootability for SDA5-7
How to label (the method for) SDA 5-7
and thereafter a step by step really simple set of install instructions for a side by side installation.
I've searched on this forum as well as via Google, but simple instructions are nowhere to be found. I really have had no trouble installing Mepis, Madriva, Ubuntu, and Linux Mint side by side with my Windows Xp partition and done so for at least 2 of them with manual partitioning rather than the automatic side by side install offered.
With this introduction, can someone point me to a Arch Linux side by side install for Dummies or help me with a walk through??
Or am I in completely over my head and need to just go back to Linux Mint and plan to upgrade every 6-18 months? Or try a different rolling Distro???
Thanks in advance to any and all who can help..
Dick

Willie,
Were I certain I would be happy with Arch, there would be no problem doing as you suggest. However, looking backover at least 2 decades, our first computer was an IBM with an 8086 chip and 20 whole MB of hard drive. The choice of operating systems was DOS. As we moved onwards and upwards, Windows 95, 98, and XP were Hobson's choice for PC users (our office computer used Unix). Now with more experience and research, a new world of operating systems is available, especially for those of us with older computers which would require major (and expensive) upgrades when possible to move to Windows 7. And as with Windows ME, 2000, and Vista, there is probably potential for significant problems with 7. Utilizing my current ability to have 2 (or more) OS's on my computer affords the opportunity to learn more about them and develop my 'geekiness" as well as to evaluate and selectively choose one which will best meet my needs.
As of now, I have at least 3 problems with abandoing Windows XP completely:
1) I haven't found a Jukebox program for Linux equivalent to J Rivers' Media Jukebox which has seamless track switching, an equalizer, and DSP studio effects,etc. I've used WINE doors and made it run on Linux Mint, but the program will not recognize my CD-ROM drives. I have some 14+k music files and my computer jukebox runs through my home sound system.
2) I've some 600+ movies indexed on Movie Organizer (movieorganizer.org) which flat out won't run on the Linux distro's I've tried. Re-entering those 600+ indexed movies to another program will be a bear. So far, no one of my local sources or on the other various Linux forums has a solution. WINE doors won't do it as it needs MDAC.
3) For all its frailties and faults, I'm reasonably literate with Windows XP. Linux OS's are still, quite obviously, relatively unfamiliar to me (3 mos experience).. So until I'm much more conversant with Linux, better the devil I know.
I have installed and used both the Linux Mint 8 Fluxbox and KDE editions on more than one computer so it's not a question of my being shy. BTW, I'm a retired internist, and our speciality is known for being really nitpicky, detail oriented, and investigational, and I'm sure it shows.
Again, thanks to all for the suggestions and comments. I'll keep in touch.

Satellite 5100 - Question about dead pixels. Is it really dead pixel problem?

Hi,
I've got Satellite 5100-603. There have been some dead pixels on display. I don't know is it really dead pixel problem or not because the black area seems to be behind the screen. When i move left and right sides, the black area moves left and right sides too (as if the black area is behind the screen pixels)! And i can tell that all pixels are working OK when i look from the right and left sides of the display (because the pixels that seems to be dead, changes at different looking angles).
Are there really dead pixels or is it some other problem?
Is there anything that i can do about it?
For info, i am using my laptop for 2,5 years and there is no warranty of course...
Thanks for any help..

Hi
to answer your question I will try to make a simple description the layout of the TFT display.
I'll go from the front to the back.
In the front is a tough plexi-glass like layer to protect the screen from harm and the user from glass in case the TFT should break. It is also prepared in a way that will soften the reflections from behind (that does not go for the newer SuperBright screens).
Behind that is the 2 layers (at least 1 of glass, probably both) that hold the actual matrix of the pixels.
Behind theese 2 are a very complex set of layers that take care of the backlight. It consists of various numbers of films that should spread the light from the singel FL-tube evenly across the complete screen. Not a easy task if you ask me!
Sometimes, physical stress or dirt can make 'blotches' appear on the screen and they are in fact either dirt on the backmost layer or marks on the same. If there is dirt or marks on it, that will 'shadow' the light that comes out from it and show dark spots on the screen. They are quite different from defective pixels.
The defective pixels do not change with the angle of view for example.
I think you cannot do anything about this except changing screen. The construction is very complex and sensetive.

Font embedding problem PPT plugin Acrobat 9 Pro

Hi,
having just updated to Acrobat 9 Pro I encounter a font embedding problem when using the PowerPoint plugin (PPT2007) to create a PDF of my presentation. I am working under Windows 7 (64Bit) and use fonts from Mathematica (Wolfram). The generated PDF shows problems displaying the fonts, indicating that they have not been embedded (although font embedding of these fonts is set in the options). The problem does not occur if I directly print to the PDF printer - here all Mathematica fonts are correctly embedded (but this has other disadvantages since videos/animations are not integrated). The problem seems to be specific to Acrobat 9 since under Acrobat 8 everything worked correctly as well.
Any ideas/solutions for that issue?
Thanks & best regards
Ralf

Perhaps you may need to upgrade to version 9.2 (Acrobat support of Windows 7 begins at this dot release)?
Be well...

Darwin Streaming Server (really basic help)

Hey, I need some basic DSS help. REALLY basic help. So, Darwin is installed and everything, and I can upload movies to the /usr/local/movies directory. When I upload them there, I can see them in the 'make new playlist' screen. However, Darwin seems to be requesting a .sdp file as the 'mount point'?? What's with that?
Thanks for any assistance.

The mount point is supposed to be the location on the hard disk where the movie file resides; the sdp extension indicates that the file is a stream. To create a SDP file, try using the information linked to from this page.

I was working on a photo calendar on my macbook off the battery and the battery suddenly ran out. So it wasn't shut down properly. Now when I open i photo the coloured wheel just keeps spinning and I can't get into it. Everything else on the computer seems to work. I've done forced quit and restarted it a few times and also left it running.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Really basic query

Hi,
I am a novice. I can't figure out what (+) means when it appears in statements like this: (the below statement is only representative)
select b.f_user_id, a.amount from t_accounts a, t_users b where
a.f_user_id(+) = b.f_user_id
and what abt
select b.f_user_id, a.amount from t_accounts a, t_users b where
a.f_user_id = b.f_user_id(+)
Whats the difference between the first and second usage?
Kindly bear with me if this is a really basic stuff.
Thanks

Hi,
I can't figure out what (+) means (+) is an outer join.
select b.f_user_id, a.amount from t_accounts a,
t_users b where
a.f_user_id(+) = b.f_user_idIt take all records of b table, even if join a.f_user_id = b.f_user_id is not verified. If join is not verified, a.amount value will be null.
select b.f_user_id, a.amount from t_accounts a,
t_users b where
a.f_user_id = b.f_user_id(+)It take all records of a table, even if join a.f_user_id = b.f_user_id is not verified. If join is not verified, b.f_user_id value will be null.

Really basic and frustrating Nano problems-can anyone help??

Hi everyone,
Thanks for clicking on.
I bought my Nano (from a completely trusted store) but can't get it to function!
Firstly whenever I try to download I.Tunes 7.2, it appears to have downloaded but doesn't and I.Tunes says my ipod won't work due to my lack of I.Tunes 7.0 (I definitely have a version of I.Tunes but possibly an older one).
So I can't transfer my music onto my Nano-very frustrating, so it is a very pretty toy right now lol.
Any advice?
Thanks a lot

Hi Pagan princess,
What exactly happens when you try to download the latest version of iTunes? Do you get any error messages? If so, please quote what they say, and when it occurs.
If you are not getting any errors, then does the install seem to stall out at some particular part?
As a general, you could try restarting your computer, and making sure that you are downloading iTunes through a user account on your comptuer that has full administrator priveledges.
Keep us posted,

Odd Flash Embedding Problem

I am using Flash with SlideShowPro (component) installed, no
actionscript.
My XML file and my images are in a sub folder. The Flash is
not working. I copied the swf into the subfolder the XML is in.
When I open the root level page which has the flash embedded on it,
it pulls up the flash SWF, but does not recognize the xml file
that's in the sub directory. It tries to get an XML file from the
root level, instead.
If I run a page from the subdirectory, it works correctly,
which tells me that the XML file is properly configured when
sitting in that directory.
What do I have to do with the embed statements (or anything
else) to make sure it takes the XML file that is in the same
subdirectory as the swf file, rather than trying to find an xml
file on the root level?
I don't think I can have the swf on the root level, because
it asks for an XML file and there are many different subfolders for
which this has to work. If there is a way, I'd be glad to hear of
it.
The subfolders are all dynamically created, so I can't
preconfigure with separate names for the swf or xml files. At time
of dynamic subfolder creation, I copy in the SWF file and the XML
file is created into that folder.
I appreciate your help.

I'm really desperate for help here.
My problem lies that I'm trying to use a dynamic situation
and PHP.
The PHP creates a folder in images/pictures, copies the swf
file into it, and creates an XML file in it...so, we'll use the
example of 10.
So now we have the houseInfo.php page on the root level with
the swf on it, and the images, actual swf file, and xml sheet are
in images/pictures/10
(remember, it's dynamic. So the number could be 14 or
24...depending on which houseID is in the database)
I can't use a php statement in flash, so I can't make the
flash dynamically grab the correct xml sheet from
images/pictures/10...
So I tried using this method:
http://components.earthscienceagency.com/support/slideshow/examples/dynamic_xml/
By this method, the SlideShowPro doesn't have an xml file
path declared in the component, but rather I have this in the
actionscript:
mySlideshow.loadXML(playlist);
and the component is ID'd as mySlideshow
The embedding on the page uses a php id and it seems to read
it right...this is what a view source will show:
<object height="270" width="250" codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0"
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000">
<param value="slide_frame.swf" name="movie"/>
<param value="playlist=images/pictures/10/slideshow.xml"
name="FlashVars"/>
<param value="high" name="quality"/>
<embed height="270" width="250"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
quality="high"
flashvars="playlist=images/pictures/10/slideshow.xml"
src="slide_frame.swf"/>
</object>
You will notice in the flash the playlist is showing the
correct path to where the XML sheet would reside.
But it still doesn't work.
Please, help?
Thanks,
Denise

Help with Hiss Removal / Basic Audio Problems

Hey guys. I have a Panasonic HDC-TM700 with an attached Azden High-performance (SMX-10) Stereo Condenser Microphone. I use it to record a person talking about 6 feet away in small room. However the audio always sounds horrible on playback. By horrible I mean there is always a loud hiss, and they sound so flat. Since I have to do this on a weekly basis now I am hoping somebody here can give me some pointers on how to fix these issues. I assume it a fairly issue fix in Adobe Audition CS 5.5 (which I have). I start my production in Premiere Pro CS5.5 and then export the audio to Adobe Audition for editing. My problem is ive never been a sound guy so I really don’t understand what all the filters and settings do (in Premiere or Audition). I was able to “capture the noise” and have Auditon “remove it”.   That does an ok job of removing the hiss… but then the already flat voice left over, sounds very tinny.
So is there any advice or direction you can give me on what settings to use or apply to get audition to make the audio sound better? Or is there anywhere (for beginners) to learn how to use the settings? I think my problem is that I don’t understand the basics of audio like what EQ or a compressor does, and how the settings effect things. But everything I read is so technical and it just confuses me more.
Or are there any other microphones (under $200.00) anybody could suggest that would be able to be added to this camera that could get me better audio for my situation?
I would really appreciate any advice, or a point in the right direction. Thanks guys.

I'm afraid my answer isn't going to make you happy. A microphone mounted on a camera six feet away from a speaker isn't ever going to give you the results you're after. Audition may be able to help a little but the real trick is to get the mic much closer to the speaker, especially in a small room which is going to sound hollow and boomy. Effectively what you're asking is like "if I shoot on a wide angle lens, how can I zoom into a closeup in editing without losing resolution". Sound is just as unforgiving. When I was working as a sound guy for video, the trick was always to get the mic in as close as possible without getting into shot--even with a thousand dollar mic, I couldn't just stand by the camera and get good results--well, at least not without a long fish pole!
How you do this is going to depend on the details of your shoot.   You might try a shotgun mic on a fishpole boom--the cheapest shotgun I know is the Rode NTG2 but this with a fishpole will blow your $200 budget. (There's also the NTG1 but this needs phantom power and I'll assume you can't provide that.
Or, in a static situation, there are various clip on lavalier mics you could try--Sennheiser do at least one within your budget (or used to--haven't checked lately) that can be powered with a little button battery.
Either way, though, the trick is to get the mic much closer to the subject.
For material you already have, the only suggestion I have is to do your hiss reduction in several small steps rather than trying to do it all at once. This should result in the remaining voice sounding less "processed" but it's still not the same as getting the recording right to start with.

Basic GUI problem

Okay, Im trying to create a simple input/output menu. I'm trying to get the GUI portion wrapped up but it's kicking my but. The display is suppose to have one side with a text=Enter Weekly Hour, a text entry field and a enter button. The other side will be the display. I have built these and put them in there round about locations but I have two problems.
1. The text "enter weekly hour", text entry field and the enter button are suppose to be one on top of each other.
2. When I resize the screen down or up it cuts off or rearranges the area's different than the way they are suppose to be.
I know I have to bind the heights of the components by placing them into another BorderLayout-managed container. Which I thought I have done. Obviously I am missing something really simple.

        contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout(5,5));
          //Creates panel for entry items inputEntry,text, and enterButton
        inputPanel = new JPanel();
        inputPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLoweredBevelBorder());
        contentPane.add(inputPanel, BorderLayout.WEST);
        //Creates text entry field
        inputEntry = new JTextField(10);
        inputPanel.add(inputEntry,BorderLayout.CENTER);
        //Creates text label
        text = new JLabel("Enter weekly hour");
        inputPanel.add(text,BorderLayout.NORTH);
        //Creates enter button
        enterButton = new JButton("Enter");
        inputPanel.add(enterButton,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
        //Creates panel for list display
        listPanel = new JPanel();
        listPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLoweredBevelBorder());
        listPanel.add(list = new JLabel("This is where the list goes"));
        contentPane.add(listPanel,BorderLayout.EAST);
        setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );

Your basic code is like this:
inputPanel = new JPanel();
inputEntry = new JTextField(10);
inputPanel.add(inputEntry,BorderLayout.CENTER);
text = new JLabel("Enter weekly hour");
inputPanel.add(text,BorderLayout.NORTH);
enterButton = new JButton("Enter");
inputPanel.add(enterButton,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
By default when you create a JPanel it uses a FlowLayout. So when you add a component to the panel the components a layed out Left-to-Right.
Using BorderLayout.CENTER, NORTH, SOUTH is ignored by the FlowLayout manager.
You should be using:
JPanel inputPanel = new JPanel( new BorderLayout() );
Now when yo add component to your panel you can use the BorderLayout constraints.

How to make a really basic pong game for a beginner

Hello. I've read through a couple of threads on here dealing with making a game of pong in LabView, but in them the users had questions with far more complex aspects of the program than I want to deal with. I am a beginner programmer in LabView with limited experience in Java and Visual Basic programming. I was tasked with creating a game over winter break, and now that I finally have some time (this weekend that is), I decided that I'd make a really simple game of pong. However, I have seriously overestimated the difficulty of this for a beginner who has very limited knowledge of Lab View.
I ask you to please have some patience with me.
I know what I want to do, and just need help inplementing it.
Here is the idea for my design to keep it as simple as possible:
-Create a field (I am not sure what to use for this, but from my reading it appears that some sort of a picture output is needed, but I cannot find that anywhere).
-Set up some simple function that can output the dimensions of this field to use with collision tracking.
-Create a ball that can be tracked by the program.
-From my reading I understand that the simplest way to "bounce" the ball off the sides appears to simply reverse the X velocity of the ball when it strikes the vertical boundaries and the Y velocity when it strikes the horizontal boundaries.
-Insert some sort of a "paddle" that the user can control with the left and right arrow keys.
Now, as I have mentioned I am a beginner with approximately one month maximum knowledge of this software, spread over about a year. I want to take things slow. So for starters, would anyone be willing to walk me through creating a visual output for this and creating a ball that will bounce off all sides?
If I can at least get that far for now, then I can move on (with help I hope!) of inserting an interactive interface for the "paddle."
I have found some LabView code for a simple game like this, but it also includes a score keeping loop as well as an "automatic play" option, and I am attempting to wade through all that code to find the bones of it to help me with this, but due to my inexperience, this might thake a lot of time.
I thank you for any and all help anyone may be able to provide.

Wel, there is the picture indicator in the picture palette. In newer versions it's called "2D picture". The palettes have a search function. Using the palette search function is a basic LabVIEW skill that you should know. If you've seen the example for the other discussion, it uses a 2D boolean array indicator. The boolean array is only recommended for a monochrome very low resolution display.

That seems backwards. Properly programmed, the code always knows the dimension and the ball position. The program generates, (not tracks!) the ball movement. Of course you need to do some range checking on the ball position to see when it collides with the walls.

Of course you could make it more realistic by keeping track of three ball parameters: x, y, spin.

Pong is typically played with the up-down arrow keys.

LabVIEW knowledge is not measured in time units. What did you do during that month? Did you attend some lectures, study tutorials, wrote some programs?

Start with the posted example and delete all the controls and indicators that you don't want, then surgically remove all code with broken wires.
Alternatively, start from scratch: Create your playing field. Easiest would be a 2D classic boolean array that is all false. Use initialize array to make it once. Now use a loop to show the ball as a function of time.
Start with a random ball position. to display it, turn one of the array elements true before wiring to the array indicator using replace array subset.
Keep a shift register with xy positions and xy velocities and update the positions as a function of the velocities with each iteration of the loop. Do range checking and reverse the velocieis when a edge is encountered.
What LabVIEW version do you have?

Font embedding problem when re-saving pdfs in Preview

I love the new features in Preview. Especially, being able to reshuffle pages and to be able to add and delete pages to documents, and the improved annotation features.
This is what I did and encountered this problem. I have a pdf that I annotated and added pages to.
I re-saved the document under a different name. On Leopard, and also on a Tiger computer, the document looks fine.
I sent it to a client on a PC and the PC complains with this re-saved document that it "Cannot extract the embedded font 'HEMGNF+Sabon Italic'. Some characters may display incorrectly." This cryptic 6-letter name of the font can change by the way, in these PC-messages.
This only happens when I re-save the document in Preview.
Anybody else who's had this?

Update: Reader 8 on a PC displays everything fine, so it's a matter of updating
