Hey Mike,
Linking layers is similar grouping layers in a sense, but a bit different as well.
So you can have multiple layers retain their relationship to each other as you move them around, or transform them and they will transform together.
Unlink them and they will act separately
One difference of linked layers vs grouped layers is that you can move a linked layer up and down your layers panel, in and out of groups, and still maintain it's link to the other layers which may reside in a group. So that if you select that layer and move it on the canvas, it will still move with the layer it's linked to even though it's outside the group.
You can link multiple groups together as well.

  • Report with select list and link to call another report

    Hi,
    I am trying to do 2 reports (REPORT1 and REPORT2).
    The first is a summary report (REPORT1).
    This report will display sales figures for the year. Now, I need to have a select list in the result set that will have 2 options, depending on which option is chosen, I want to call REPORT2 with the select list as a parameter. How can I do this ?
    Let me try to explain what I did.
    I created REPORT1 on Page 100
    SELECT YEAR, sum(YTD_SALES), APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST(1,'DEPARTMENT','Department;DEPARTMENT,Division;DIVISION') Drilldown FROM SALES_ANALYSIS WHERE YEAR > 2000
    GROUP BY YEAR ORDER BY YEAR
    I created 2 hidden items namely P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN
    I also made the column YEAR as a link and specified both P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN as parameters to be passed.
    Next, I created REPORT2
    SELECT YEAR, DECODE(:P100_DRILLDOWN, 'Department', department, 'Division', Division) dept_div, sum(YTD_SALES) ytd_sales
    FROM SALES_ANALYSIS
    WHERE YEAR = :P100_YEAR
    When I run Report 1, it's fine, when I choose either Department or Division from the Select List and click on the link to call Report 2, report 2 is displayed, but the value being passed for P100_DRILLDOWN is not correct and as a result, I am unable to get correct results for Report 2
    Am I missing something ? Are there any alternate ways to do what I'm doing ?
    Thanks,
    Ashok

    Hi Ashok,
    The link definition will not know the value selected in the list as it is constructed only when the page is being rendered. You would need to create some javascript to handle this. I've done that here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:182]
    The link on the EMPNO column has been defined in the HTML Expression setting for the column instead of the Link section. The HTML Expression that I have used is:
    <a href="#" onclick="javascript:doDrilldown('#EMPNO#',this);">#EMPNO#</a>And, in the page's HTML Header setting, I have added in:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function doDrilldown(empno,group)
    var g;
    var p = group.parentNode;
    while (p.tagName != "TR")
      p = p.parentNode;
    var x = p.getElementsByTagName("SELECT");
    if (x.length > 0)
      g = x[0].value;
    var url = "f?p=&APP_ID.:183:&SESSION.::::P183_EMPNO,P183_GROUP:" + empno + "," + g;
    document.location.href = url;
    </script>When a link is clicked, the doDrilldown function is called passing in the EMPNO value and the "this" object (which identifies the object triggering the call). The function starts from that object and goes up in the HTML tag tree to the nearest TR tag (the row tag that the link is on) and then finds the first SELECT list item on the row and gets its value. It then constructs a URL using this and the EMPNO value and performs a redirect to the second page (page 183 in this example).

  • Is it possible to select multiple layers by selecting first and last layers?

    I frequently get Illustrator files in that have individual objects such as paths on individual layers that could be grouped to make the layers more concise. I find that I have to shift click each individual layer to select it to eventually group it. At times, I have 25 or so layers that I need to select. Is there a way to select the first and last layer in the layers palette, and have Illustrator select all layers in between?

    Katrina,
    And I guess it's the way I work. 1) I routinely select objects by selecting them from the layers palette, and not the canvas, so that I can't accidentally move an object that is the clients artwork. I prefer to work this way, as I consider it "safer". (I lock layers I'm not using) I routinely run into artists work that for instance, converted fonts to outline, and now each compound layer that is an individual letter is an object on it's own layer. 2) I need things grouped together and titled so that if I need to come back to this file and quickly fix something on press, I can tell what layer holds what object. 
    3) Therefore, I frequently need to select objects in a two mile long (slight exaggeration ) list of layers/sublayers and group them, retaining them in their same layers in the event an effect has been applied at the top hiearchy of that layer.
    It would be great if a key, or combination of keys, would allow me to select the top object, scroll down and select the last object, and have Illustrator select all between those two.
    If you create and use selections as suggested in post #12, you do have to select individual objects when they share layers with other objects (but you can select whole layers as well) in exactly the way you are used to (1), but you only have to do it once instead of having to repeat it (3), and you have them collected with a title so you can find them again (2).
    At least it is part of the way.

  • Workcentre Group and links not appearing

    Hi All
    I Created BI report links, assigned them to the workcentre group ID reports and this group is assigned to the workcentre.
    I went to the Business role..into the adjust workcentre group id links....I could see the group assigned to the workcentre and the links assigned to the group. I checked marked the links as visible and saved. But when I come to the web UI, I don't see the workcentre group nor the links ? Please reply ASAP
    Thanks

    If these are missing then there has to be something that you are missing in the config itself. It has to be something really small that is very easy to be ignored. Please review the config once again, closely. For reference please do have a look at the blog below by Vikash...it is really helpful:

  • Problems with grouped and merging layers

    Sometimes when I combine layered .pdf files (by dragging pages in or doing Merge Files Into a Single PDF), the layers come in grouped (by file name) and other times they do not. Why is that? Also, is there a way to ungroup layers in Acrobat?
    Any help is much appreciated!
    For those interested in the background, I have a bunch of layered .pdf files that I want to combine. They were created from a single large Photoshop image sliced into page-sized pieces so the files all have the same layers and the layers are arranged and named the same in every file. I want the combined PDF book to maintain these layers so the user can, with one click, turn on or off a given layer across all pages of the PDF. Clicking on a layer on every page just isn't going to cut it.
    I figured I would just combine all of the single PDF pages and then merge all of the layers of a given name so that I end up with just one layer for each type. The problem is that the merging works sometimes and not others. I can't figure out why, but it works far more often when the files combine without the layers grouped. It still doesn't work all of the time, but it NEVER works if the layers come in grouped - so I figure I would start there.
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I used the method outlined below to turn my layered Photoshop (CS5) files in layered PDF files:
    http://www.ehow.com/how_8296095_convert-photoshop-pdf-layers.html

    After hours (and hours) of debugging Acrobat, I figured out that as long as the file(s) I drop in are not at the end of the document, then no layer groups are formed - all of the layers in both files are at the top level.
    If I drop a file in after all existing pages, then the layers are grouped by file name.
    and
    If there are layer groups then merging fails. The names of the merged layers disappear from the layer list but the conent is left permanently visible.
    If the layers are not divided into groups, then merging works most of the time. I haven't figure out why it occassionaly fails this way too, but so far it's been easy to work around.
    This is Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 so no chance of it being fixed - so amybe this will help someone else in the same boat.

  • Javascript, IllustratorCS3, select items and change layers

  • Group and link options

    I guess I'm getting old cause for years now I have had the Layers>group options and for some reason now all I have is the link option available. Running Windows XP, Photoshop CS3
    What did I do to lose it? or what causes that, so I can change things..
    Thank you, Linda

    Click the really small down arrow at the upper right corner of the layers window, which brings up a menu that has all the options you mentioned. You may need to ctrl+click the files before some of the options are active, but I'm pretty sure that's what you're trying to find.

  • Select, grouping and counting...

    Hi again, I managed to bypass my trigger problem, so thanks a lot...!
    Now, I have a simple question...
    Using two tables, Joueur (NoJ (PK), NoE(PK, FK1), NomJ, Adresse, Tel, CoJ)
    and Equipe (NoE(PK,FK1), NomE, NoJC(Fk1 of NoJ))
    I'll explain the model...
    It's a Team table, and a Player Table.
    Naturally, the PK on Player (Joueur) is NoE (team number) and NoJ (Player number)
    On the Team table, the primary key is NoE (Team number
    and the foreign key is NoE AND NoJC which stands for the number of the CAPTAIN player ...
    So...
    I've got to make a table of 4 cloumns: Team number (NoE), Team name (NomE), Team captain name, number of player in team...
    So I need to combine those two tables... on the first table, I got all the info BUT the number of players, which lists all 1 due to the where NoJC = NoJ... but this function is required to get the Captain name...
    Select NoE, NomE, NomJ as Capitaine, count(*)
    from EQUIPE join JOUEUR using (NoE)
    where NoJ=NoJC
    group by NoE, NomE, NomJ;
    select noe, count(*)
    from EQUIPE join JOUEUR using (NoE)
    group by noe;Any clue?

    I suggest for you :
    Put then column noJC in joueur table nojc NUMBER CONSTRAINT fk_no_joueur_cap REFERENCES joueur(noj);

  • PC-UI : Creating new Filed Group and link it to the screen

    I have extended the Leads application in EEWB in CRM 4.0. I would like to bring the new fields in PCUI. How do I create a new field group containing the newly created fields, link it to the screen structure and generate the corresponding layout. Do I have to use CRMC_BLUPRINT transaction code at any point of time. An answer for a detailed approach would be rewarded with Maximum Points.
    Thanks!
    Suresh.

    as it is custom fields use the tx:CRMC_BLUPRINT_C.
    BTY when you add new fields via EEWB it will automatically generates fieldgroup and shows in the screen.
    If you want to create your own fieldgroup goto above tx and you will find field group under application element.

  • Grouping and linking by giving a Folder Name?????

    Hi all.
    Is there any possibilities to have LINKS for the given FOLDER (specified by the user).
    For eg:
    SystemName: \\Sys1\c\TestFolder
    \\Sys1\c\TestFolder.....Like this the Folder name will be given. What is the need here is to generate automatic link to the sub folders of files.
    Here links needed for Italicized words....
    C:\TestFolder (Folder name will be specified in the code)
    |
    |----- TestFile1(Sub files-Link needed)
    |----- TestFile2(Sub files-Link needed)
    |----- TestFile3(Sub files-Link needed)
    |<<Some folders or files >>

    What's a link in your understanding?Link like <<a href>>.
    Any classes available?
    Sub files, folders links of the given particular
    FOLDER name should be displayed automatically and
    <<sub files, folders>> should be opened.
    Should be displayed where?

  • URGENT NEED: Using Photoshop CC, is there a way to auto-center linked layers to a specific area on data merge?

    I'm looking for a way to auto-center a group of linked layers to a specific area after being data-merged in Photoshop CC. The text needs to be all left-justified within the area in question, so I'm looking for a way that once the merged data comes in, the layers automatically center themselves within the area.

    Yes.  For example do a select all or make a selection of the area.  Target the layer you want to align to that and use menu Layer>Align Layers to Selection>Location...
    Use this menu twice to align the layer(s) to one of the nine positions og a tick tack toe board are of the selection.
    Example center layer over center of the canvas
    Select All
    target top layer
    Layer>Align Layers to Selection>Vertical center...
    Layer>Align Layers to Selection>Horizontal center...
    If you select a group of layers that are linked I would expect the group's  layers center would be over the center of the canvas.  However I have not mad that test it would be easy to test try it. You may even only need to select the layer you want over the center all the linked layers should move with the one being aligned.
    But I do not know what you mean by a data merge. Do you mean merge down or merge layers.

  • CR, Documents and Links, delete file from room

    Dear collegues,
    I'm using Collaboration Room template, which uses standard page "Documents and Links", extention "Documents".
    My problem:
    We can add files or folders to room, but we cannot delete them (even with admin role) in the same interface. The only way to delete them - use standard KM "repository explorer".
    Version KMC-COLL 7.02 SP09
    Can somebody help me to configure template, or choose another page to work with attachments.
    Will be grateful for any help.
    Regards,
    Dmitriy.

    Hello Dmitriy,
    Are you using a SAP delivered template or one of your own? You could try using "SAP Team Room" as an example, you could create something similar if you wanted. There when you select Documents and Links there is an edit option which opens a new window to allow you to delete content. See the screenshot attached:

  • Composite selection groups in step "Maintain table reduction" ?

    Hello forum,
    I have a table ZMCHA that I want to filter in the same way as the standard MCHA (I am talking about TDTCC here).
    MCHA is filtered with selection group G_WERKS (you can see that in table CNVMBTCOBJ).
    I wanted to apply this selection group to ZMCHA in step "Maintain table reduction", but from what I see you can only apply "simple" selection groups in the transaction, not "composite" selection groups (in CNVMBTSELGRPDEF you can see that G_WERKS = G_WE + G_WE_SP; I can apply G_WE or G_WE_SP in the transaction, but not both).
    I did manage to apply G_WERKS by changing tables CNVMBTCOBJ and CNVMBTSELREF directly, but would it be possible to do it in the normal transaction? Am I missing something?
    Another related question: in that same transaction, if want to choose "no transfer" for a given table I have to double click it, the system will try to find possible selection groups (which takes some seconds) and then I choose no transfer. Obviously, if I want to choose "no transfer" there's no need for the system to determine the possible selection groups, and avoiding that would make the configuration much faster. Again, am I missing something in the transaction, or is the best option to go directly to CNVMBTCOBJ and forget that transaction?
    Hope I was clear,
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Rui Dantas

    Hi Surmeet,
    Sorry for taking so long to answer, but I had to create a new package to be able to reproduce the problem.
    I have a ZMCHA table with the same key fields as MCHA. I would like to have it reduced in the same way that MCHA is.
    If I check table CNVMBTCOBJ I can see that MCHA is reduced with selection group G_WERKS (that is, G_WE + G_WE_SP).
    If I try to reduce ZMCHA via the screen then both G_WE and G_WE_SP appear as options, but G_WERKS does not.
    In fact, G_WERKS doesn't appear in the screen even if I select the standard MCHA
    (and, by the way, the transaction will show G_WE_SP as selected for MCHA, and then change the value in CNVMBTCOBJ to G_WE_SP even if I don't save the assignment, which I would say is a bug).
    I just wanted to confirm if we are talking about the same thing. If yes, and if this should work, I will open an OSS message.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Convert data link between one query's group and another querys group to SQL

    Hi
    I have a report where there are 2 query Groups. These 2 query groups r linked by data link. How do i combine these queries to One query so i can use it as a SQL query.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Assume that we have two queries Q1 and Q2 and the common column between the two queries is "comn".
    Now we can convert the datalink into SQL as follows:-
    SELECT *
    FROM
    (Query for Q1)a,
    (Query for Q2)b
    WHERE a.comn=b.comn(+)
    Note: "a" and "b" are alias names for Q1 and Q2.

  • Link between Material group and GL account

    Hi Friends ,
    Need your help in the following issue
    Where is the link between Material group and GL account. i.e. If material group is selected in PO then the GL account for the material should get picked up automatically in PO (for account assigned POs) ?
    What I know is
    1. In Account assignment category configuration we need to assign the value "VBR" in  Account Modification field.
    2. In Material group configuration we need to assign the vluation class for material group
    3. In Account determination(OBYC) for GBB transcation type for the combination of  general modifier "VBR" & Valuation class we need to assign the GL account .
    When PO is created with respective account assignment category the GL account is picked from the above setting.
    My question is ,  "Is there any other setting apart from the above which will decide the GL account in PO fro account assigned POs"?
    Thanks
    Deva

    Hi,
    From IMG> Material Management> Purchasing> Material Master> Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master,
    With it you can define the G/L account assignment according to the relationship between material group and valuation class, from my point of view, you had better define some valuation class for non-produciton parts in advance.
    Good luck
