Retaining left to right order of annotations

I want to be able to use keywords to finish typing a person's name when annotating a photo, and have the order of the names match the order (left to right, etc.) of the appearance of the person in the photo. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks,
Weldon

Thanks for the reply. Of course, the problem with captions is that you have to retype the information for every photo--no option to choose from the keyword list, as far as I have been able to find. Needless to say, that is very tedious. I'm surprised that the ability to properly identify people in a photo is not available as a streamlined process. Is there another way to achieve this that I am missing?
Thanks,
Weldon

Left- and right arrow key out of order

Hi,
I'm afraid to need your help again. My left and right arrow keys doesn't work as they're supposed to. While can neither navigate through my desktop icons nor the buttons in any dialog nor the text I'm just writing. The cursor stops blinking as soon as I press one of these keys so the system recognizes the key press but the cursor doesn't move. Showkey returns the keycodes 105 left and 106 for the right arrow key.
While logging in with LXDM im able to navigate back and foth while entering my password as well as the keys work properly in tty. It seems to be only LXDE, where the keys are not working.
Furthermore my function keys like mute, volume up and down and so on aren't working too. I don't know if both errors are relatet to another.
Maybe anyone has an idea what I might do to fix this?

I think I use lxdm to log in. As soon as I'm logged in, I'm using lxde. Ist this what you have to know?
no, you have to know it.
i meant: when you login with lxdm, do you have a choice between lxde-session and openbox-session (or sth similar) because there's a difference how openbox gets started and which config files are parsed.
It's an lxde-session. And LXDE uses openbox-lxde as displaymanager.

The part of the rc.xml I posted beforehand is the only one in that file that is tagged with <keyboard> and there is no binding for the left or right arrow key. There are some in combination with the control or shift key but that shouldn't do anything regarding my problem.

Absolutely.

Yes, exactly.
Steff432 wrote:I don't use lxdm, but I guess that doesn't use the default Gtk text entry widget, while most Gtk-based browsers as far as I know do, so it might be related to Gtk in some way. Or do you use a Qt browser? Have you tried the keys in non-Gtk software?
I use firefox which is, as far as I know, Gtk-based. But I installed QupZilla and gabe it a try. Unfortunatelly the same error shows up there.
I don't know if I'm right but lxde should be gtk-based itself and running a non-Gtk software in gtk-based lxde would show up the same gtk-errors to, wouldn't it? So eventually I'd have to try a non-Gtk software in a non-Gtk desktop environment in order to check whether the error doesn't show up under non-gtk software?

I want to view a PDF file from Right to Left (Japanese page order) in Apple Preview

I want to view a PDF file from Right to Left (Japanese page order) instead of Left to Right (English page order) when I view 2 pages. Does someone know how to do this? I think I was able to accidentally get it to work before, someone please HELP!

Sadly there's no way to do that on apple's Preview.
Adobe reader, however, has this option.

Wrongly transformed the sentences of left and right paragraphs into one sentence in PDF files to txt files by Acrobat 9 Pro

I found that the when transforming PDF files into TXT files by Acrobat 9 Pro, the Acrobat will wrongly transform the sentences of the left hand side and right hand side paragraphs into one sentence, while the correct format should be the later sentence follows the former sentence in each paragraph.
An example PDF is : http://cardiovascres.oxfordjournals.org/content/cardiovascres/45/1/200.full.pdf
Is there any solution for this problem? Or should I use other software (or other version of Acrobat) to solve the problem? Thank you.

PDF is not a word processor file format.
It has no "styles", "format", "layout", "columns", "rows", "tables", etc.
PDF writers paint the content to the canvas that is the PDF page.
Depending on what was used and how it operates this painting can be like a paint by numbers affair.
ISO 32000-1:2008, the ISO standard for PDF explains it all.
So, when exporting to text from your PDF the progression is left to right, top down.
Remember, PDF has no awareness of "columns". What we see is our construct not PDF's.
What you and I see as two columns with a specific read order is our imposition.
What is on the PDF page is simply a line of text characters.
That is how it is with all versions of Acrobat. Applications can only make use of what the file format supports eh.
What to do?
Master content in a logical hierarchy in the authoring file.
Always use the build-in Headings for Headings.
Use the built-in "table" feature.
Use a PDF writer process that is compliant with the ISO standard and that supports proper output of Tagged PDF.
A well-formed Tagged PDF will export properly.
Two key design considerations for Tagged PDF are:
(1) Support Accessible PDF
(2) Support Export of PDF page content.
What constitutes a "well-formed tagged PDF?"
This would be a PDF that is ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant.
Be well...

Almost 100% of the time, when I move the Firefox window left or right, the content stays fixed on my screen -- using Windows 7 Ultimate -- how do I fix so that

How do I fix it so that the content moves WITH the frame as it is moved left or right. Works O.K. in the up or down direction. If the frame has been moved to the right, leaving the content fixed, the "buttons" do not work until the frame is manually moved back to the left side of the screen. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate (x64 bit) with a 1920 x 1200 LCD display in the PORTRAIT orientation, and Firefox version 13.0.1. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or Chrome.

Hmmm, could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

Globally map Ctrl B and ctrl F to left and right arrow keys, respectively

Does anyone know how I would *globally* map Ctrl + B and ctrl + F to left and right arrow keys, respectively? This keystroke works for some applications, but not all. I'd like it to always work.

So, it is now June and still no fix. This is incredibly annoying when you are giving a professional presentation in front of an audience and the speaker wants to go back a slide. It's enough to change presentation software.
In truth, the Presentation Module in LR5 is vastly inferior to other dedicated software. For instance, you can't add a text slide as a divider between "chapters," as far as I can figure out, you can't merge slideshows or go from one to another without exposing your entire screen, the order of slides is over-ridden by some predetermined metadata rather than being able to choose two catalogs and put them into one slideshow, deciding yourself which catalog should play first.
Are any of these changes in the works?
Any eta on the right/left arrow fix?
This could be SO great. I hope it is moving in that direction.

Is it possible to make the automatic scroll go left to right instead of top to bottom?

Hi all,
I find it hard to follow text when adobe is scrolling from top to bottom. Is there any way to make it scroll left to right instead?

user13392320 wrote:
Is it possible to make ODI process a source row by row instead of as a dataset?Yes it is, the Agent acts like a SQL cursor if you use a select on the source tab (in the IKM) and an insert on the target tab (same step in the IKM) it will read it row by row. You can tweak the batch fetch array sizes in the Agent configuration.
user13392320 wrote:
To make changes to the target table I need to join the source table to the target table. I want to process source records in a particular order. What will be loaded from the current source record will depend on the previously loaded, related source record, during this some run of my ODI job. And ideas? Thanks!Cant see why you cant drag the target table onto the source datastores and join them - carefully choose where you want the join to take place (probably in the target). If you want to order the records there are some Knowledge Module tweaks to specify an order by clause using the UD1 -> UD5 flags on a datastore. Search the forum or google for the code.
Hope this helps.

When starting my MAC on the home page with my icons-- how do I arrange icons alphabetically left to right

How does one arrange icons from left to right ala Windows. I would like the Mac disk icon in the upper left of the window followed by app and file icons to appear in alphabetical order from left to right. I know it will go vertically and then to the next row. I have been reading English like this for over 60 yrs and the default set-up gives an old man a large pain in the head. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jim Buckley

I think they do it to be a pain in the ***. There is no reason to have people read in reverse alpha order. Some countries read right to left but here it's reversed. You think the geniuses here would figure out how to make allowance for that in their software.
I love the mac mini's size, etc, but using mac in general has made me nuts. I don't understand how people think it's intuitive. I find myself taking a ridiculous amount of steps to get anything done, but it may just be me. I know some people just love them.

Plotting Data on a fixed time axis from left to right

I am plotting data on a Historical Trend graph from the DSC palette. I receive the data from a plc throughout the course of a production shift. I would like to have the start time of the shift (07:00) on the far left of the x-axis and the end time of the shift on the far right (15:30). I would like to plot the data from left to right as the shift progresses. Is this possible? How do I format?
Many thanks for any input,
Stuart Wilson

Hi Stuart,
All you need to do is place down a waveform chart and then modify the properties slightly in order to achieve this. If you right click and make sure autoscaling is turned off on the x-axis first of all, then go into the properties page and change the x-axis formatting to absolute time then you will be able to plot data with the actual time according to your system clock.
The only problem you have now is that there probably isn't enough room on the chart to plot data for the entire time between 09:00 and 15:30 depending on how often you want to sample. The default number of data points to keep in the chart is 1024. Therefore if you try and change the max and min values to 09:00 and 15:30 then it won't allow you to set that up as it doesn't think you have enough room there. Right click on the chart again and go down to Chart History Length. Increase this number to a large enough number and then you will be able to set the start time to 09:00 and the end time to 15:30 and as long as autoscaling is turned off this will not change.
Hope this helps, please find the attached example which will plot random numbers to a chart once a minute and the chart will plot data between these times.

I would like to print a four sided programme, but am having trouble finding out how to organise the sections onto a 17 by 11 paper with the sections in the right order. Any help?

I would like to print a four sided programme, but am having trouble finding out how to organise the sections onto a 17 by 11 paper with the sections in the right order. Any help?

If all you are going to do is print double sided and them make
a single fold reducing the page to 8 1/2 x 11, one side of the
original 17 x 11 page will be page 4 on the left as you hold
the page facing you and page 1 on the right, reverse side
should be printed so top is same as top on the the first side
and will be page 2 to the left and page 3 to the right. Pick
up the double sided document with pages 2 and 3 facing you, fold
left edge to meet right edge; you should now have fold on the left
with page 1 facing up toward you, turn the page as you normally
would and pages 2 & 3 should be in order, and one more turn brings
you to page 4 and the fold should know be on the right. I hope this
explains clearly enough - if not, post back and some one should
join in with a better explanation.

Arabic titles in PPro CS5 are left-to-right

Hi,
I'm trying to add Arabic subtitles in Premiere Pro CS5 (PC).
When I copy and paste the text, it switches from right-to-left to left-to-right.
I need it right-to-left.
Can anyone help?

Found a solution that may work, although I used windows, Premiere Pro CC cloud version (2014):
Export tout of the Arabic word doc as a .pdf
select the text in ADOBE ACROBAT. RIGHT CLICK and “copy with formatting” then
paste into premiere.
May have to paste it LINE BY LINE and occasionally tweak the ordering. Pay careful attention.
The type of PDF export may be important too but I haven’t tested that. I just know it’s working for me.
If there is an English word in the middle of the Arabic just select that word and not the punctuation and COPY FORMATTING and it should paste ok too.

Why Left and Right Joins if only one of them can serve the same purpose?

I understand that left join is used to display all the records from left table whereas the right join is used to display all the records from right table in a join.
However, if we switch the positions of the join tables and perform left join we can get all the records of the left table.
A left join B -> will give all records from A
A right join B ->will give all records from B
B left join A -> will again give all records from B.
The order in which the data is displayed(ie the field order) can also be maintained in the SELECT clause.
So, Why do we have left and right joins separately in existance, when only one of them can serve the same purpose?

Hi,
I think it's because it is sometime more natural to outer join on left or right.
In your data model (or the query you are writing), there is some kind of hierarchy between tables : I feel more natural to have the table with lowest hierarchical level (the root table) on the left. So I sometimes prefer to right outer join...
This is a very personal feeling, I must admit.
To me what is strange is to have chosen left and right as they refer to a "latin" reading direction => forward join and backward join would be more meaningful for people that read from right to left.
+And I prefer the new joining syntax that doesn't us the {noformat}(+){noformat} sign...+

How to migrate stored procs accessing columns "LEFT" and "RIGHT"

Hello!
I have to migrate a SYBASE11-Database to Oracle 8.1.7.
How can I migrate Stored Procs that access tables that contain columns 'LEFT' and 'RIGHT'?
OMWB reports a parse error "encountered: ,". If ommit the words 'left' or 'right' or if I write 'left()' or 'right()', it works. But I have to use these columns and we cannot change the database model.
It doesn't work with quoted column names like this: "LEFT" or "RIGHT".
I use OWMB 1.3.1.0.0. Anybody any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Yours, Heiko Kaschube

This is a simple matter to fix.
As the words LEFT and RIGHT are treated as reserved words by the stored procedure parser, they cannot be used successfully as column names within Oracle PL/SQL.
In order to get the stored procedure to parse, you can append an underscore to all references to LEFT and RIGHT e.g.
left_
then right click on the stored procedure name and select 'parse procedure' from the drop-down menu. The procedure will now parse and the generated PL/SQL can be viewed within the Oracle model menu tab.
It will now be necessary to remove all the underscores previously appended to the words 'left' and 'right' from the PL/SQL version of the stored procedure in question. Again, this can be done within the Migration Workbench.
Hope this helps.

Str.replace(regex,func): Is func guaranteed to be called from left to right in str?

Suppose the global pattern regex is found in str at indexes 14, 82, 113, and 129.
Could invocation 1 through 4 sequentially of func correlate to (say) 113, 82, 129, 14, or would it always be in order from left to right.

Thanks for reporting the problem!
This looks like a compiler bug, I think an artifact of creating a helper function for the debugger for the default argument.
I have filed bug 18505648 for you.
