Set-up the workspace

how can I decide to work on sheet of w:98484 h:23657 px?? in the previous version were possible to customize the workspace in mm, px,inch and cm. With InDesign 6 or CC apparently is not possible....
Can someone tell me if I getting wrong??

The maximum width and height dimensions are 216" so your 98484 x 23657 pixel dimension is too large. ID measures a pixel as 1/72", which would make your width 1367.8".
By default the dimensions for a New Document when the Intent is web are pixels. If you want to enter pixels when the intent is Print just add px after the number (i.e., 1800px will get converted to 25")

Change the Workspace Language

Hello,
I would like to know if there is any way to change the workspace language other than the language setting done during Installation.
Thanks !

Try changing the language preference order in your browser, also look at the supported locales and default locale setting in the workspace server settings which can be accessed through workspace.
Cheers

How do I keep my preferences in the metadata panel? Saving the workspace does not help.

I have been searching for a way to keep preferences once I choose them in Bridge. Every time I open the program, I have to reset the interface under "IPTC Core." I do not need most of the fields and it is an irritant to have to do this each time. I have set up the workspace and saved it a number of times. All other items are saved except the metadata preferences. It is the Metadata Panel which is problematic.
I am using Windows 7 and this issue is the same on any computer I use. I am using Bridge in CS5 and 5.5.

Your template is messed up. <script> & <style> tags need to be inside your <head> </head> tags. Also, you require an editable region for the <head> or you can't edit styles from your child pages.
Replace this :
</head>
with this:
<style type="text/css">
.style7 {
color: #990000;
font-size: 9px;
</style>


</head>
Don't forget to remove the CSS styles from your <body> tag. Save Template and populate changes to your child pages.

How do I export the workspace I set up in CS6 32 bit to the 64 bit version?

I've grown to accept that workspaces can't be simply exported from a previous version of AI and imported into the next one. So I painstakingly set up my workspace in the 32 bit version of Illustrator CS6, all the panels laid up over 2 screens in the way I use them most eficiently to suit my personal workflow, thinking that the 64 bit version would also have the same workspace available once I start it. Silly me! Why should I have thought things could be so straightforward? Well OK, they don't share workspaces - so how do I export my workspace that I saved in the 32 bit AI to the 64 bit version? That must be do-able surely - if we need to switch versions obviously we want to maintain consistency. But I just can't figure out how. Please help.

You need to copy your workspace file manually from the 32 bit version into the 64 bit version.
This is the mac CS5 location (I am at work), and the PC location should be similar. Or do a search of your drive for the workspace name.
You will need to restart for this to take effect. Wou will also probably have to export 32 bit actions, and load them in your 64 bit version along with changing popular setting like paste remembers layers.

Overprint Preview and Workspace are set to the same, but look different

I'm working for something to be viewed on a screen, so I work in the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (Edit > Color Setting > Working Spaces - RGB: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 ). I have set the Overprint Preview to the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as well (View > Proof Setup > Device to simulate : sRGB IEC61966-2.1). But when I tick Overprint Preview the colors look completly different. Why?
Thanks, Andi

Maybe you are right and it doesn't make much sense to use the Overprint Preview in this case. I think what happens is, when you tick Overprint Preview, ID converts from your actual RGB-Color Space to a set CMYK-Color Space and back to the old RGB-Color Space (if set to the same one). On it's way the colors change through it's conversion from RGB to CMYK and back to RGB. That could explain it.
Thanks a million, Andi

How Can I Move the Image in the Workspace to Align with 0 on the Ruler (CS5)?

I am completely new to Photoshop (CS5) so I don't know all the correct terms to explain my problem but I'll try. I'm working on a computer with Windows 7.
I open a RAW image and edit it to my satisfaction, and then I "Open Image" in CS5 to do a little more with it, mainly crop it. I have adjusted the rulers so zero is near the upper left corner. I want the image's upper left corner to snap to the 0/0 ruler point on the screen. I can't get the image to move at all. I've tried Move, Hand. Select and Move, Snap To Guides, and everything else I can think of. The reason I want to do this is so I can see the image when I have an Image Adjustment window open (Sharpen, Levels, etc.) -- all those "working" windows cover up the image and/or my panel on the right side of the screen. An odd thing is that the horizontal ruler goes clear over to the right side of my screen, above the panel, and this places my image smack in the center of the screen instead of the center of the workspace (the screen minus the panel and the list of Tools).
Any suggestions would really be appreciated! This is a very frustrating problem!

Sounds like what you want is Window > Arrange > Float in Window. This puts the image into a seperate, normal window, rather than the tabbed interface that Adobe has foisted on us (Float in Window used to be the default).
When viewed as normal windows, if you ALT + CTRL + plus or ALT + CTRL + minus, it will zoom in and out, expanding and contracting the window to fit.
For the Toolbar, if you drag it to the left of your screen, you can dock it to the left edge. When the toolbar is docked, other windows won't open underneath it.
Another handy shortcut when you find all your panels distracting is the H key, to show/hide the "Extras". Be sure to set it back to "Show" when you're done; it's all too easy to be wondering, "Why isn't my paintbrush working?", only to realize you have and active selection hidden.

How to deploy the Workspace Agent Services as a Window Service!

Hi all,
does anyone know how to install the Workspace Agent Service back as a Windows Service after i re-installed an reconfigured the workspace completly i do not see the Agent anymore in my Windows Services. I sure would like to avoid to have to uninstall and set it up completely again.
The agent start file is located in common\workspacert\9.5.0.0\bin.
Your help is much appreciated
Cheers
André

I hit the same problem after reinstalling workspace.
It seems that the config tool does not create the workspace agent service on subsequent configurations.
A quick search of the configtool.log from the original installation/configuration yields the following:
com.hyperion.avalanche.config.CoreService, INFO, Running command: D:\Hyperion\common\workspacert\9.5.0.0\bin\wksagent.exe -RegService -Auto -Name HyS9Core1 -DisplayName Hyperion Workspace - Agent Service -Description HyS9Core1, Provides service infrastructure to run services locally
Dropping the above line at the command prompt fixed the issue for me.
Cheers,
Aaron

Defining default value for financial reports display in the workspace (9.3)

Hi
I need to change the default value for financial reports workspace preview mode, for every workspace user. It is actually set on html, and I would like to have pdf instead.
This option can be changed when logged on the workspace, in file->preferences->financial reporting->default preview mode. However I want every user to start with the right settings, so they dont have to change anything manually.
I have tried to do it with Shared Services : under projects, BI+, assign preferences. From there I can change the default folder and the start page (the general preferences), however I cannot find the options for financial reporting.
Is there a way to change these values with hyperion tools ?
If not, is it possible to change it directly in the repository DB ?Thanks and best regards

We looked at this about 2 years ago - from memory, you can only set preferences when the users are first setup in Shared Services, under the manage preferences section of the wizard.
I can't remember if there is a settings file you can edit for the default users - i think there is, but again this must be set before users are set up.
We looked at changing users preferences, but gave up on the idea as all users had been provisioned already :-(
Cheers, Iain

Cannot find new instances in the workspace

I use BPM Standalone 10g and Studio 10g.
I create a process without a global creation activity and deploy as well as publish it in the BPM Standalone.
The process just has one activity named Interactivejcooper. Its main task is set to Method.
I also create a JAVA PAPI to create new instances of this process. It can create new instances.
However, I cannot find all new instances created by PAPI in the workspace.

Making Web Service calls from a Form in the WorkSpace

I am getting conflicting information about this, so I hope someone here could clarify it. TIA.
This is what I want to do:
after a form is displayed/launched in the WorkSpace,
when the user Tabs out of a field (Exit event) on the form,
I want to make a Web Service call from the form,
get the result from the WebService,
and use the Result to populate another field on the form.
I know for certain that this works if I Reader-Extend the form,
and I set the JavaScript at the Exit event (to execute WebService call)
as "Run At Client".
The question is:
can I make the WebService calls without Reader-Extending the form???
I have been told that, yes you can,
but *only if* you let the JavaScript "Run At Server".
I tried that, but it caused the Reader to crash.
Some other people told me,
no you can not,
even if you "Run At Server", the form still needs to be Reader-Extended,
when using it in the WorkSpace environment.
So, what is the truth? can someon tell me?
Can I make WebServers calls from the Server-side at all?
Do I really need to Reader-Extend the form even if calling it from server side?
What exactly is it SUPPOSED to work?
thanks

yes, thank you both. I got the fix from Adobe Tech Support last week. It's working.
The fix I got included a rather complex looking "Submit Service" though. Makes me wonder how a regular user would know that he needs to write such a Submit Service?? and even if he knows that he needs a special Submit Service, would he know how to write it??? I found no documentation for this type of things either.
Shouldn't this solution be published somewhere in Adobe's website? Dev Lab perhaps?

How do I export ONLY the workspace artwork?

First of all hi everyone, i think this is my first post here.
now for the problem: illustrator cs4: its simple, when i export my artwork it saves everything incuding whats on the pasteboard (not the direct stage / immediate workspace).
so my question is how do i export just the workspace artwork to tiff or jpeg? (ultimately will need to be jpeg)
i dont see why it would export every visible thing, i must be missing something obvious..
thanks in advance!

Maffooo,
At least in older versions, the Workspace meant the whole area you could work on, and the Artboard was the area corresponding to the page.
In the oldest versions you had to Object>Crop Marks>Make to crop the artwork.
Later, that became Object>Crop Area>Make. I am not sure whether you can still set Crop Area in CS4.
And even later, the Artboard has had its own tool and has been working as crop area, so you could DoubleClick the Artboard Tool and set it to enclose the selected artwork. Is that not the way it works in CS4?

Setting up the development environment

hi,
can anybody suggest the best way to set up the weblogic server
development environment.
we are a group of 5 EJB developers working on weblogic 7.0.
(evaluation version)
each one is developing ejbs which has to interact with other
developer's beans.
each one has installed the server on their own m/c. for developing and
testing the beans.
Once done, integration of the ejbs is done on another server and
tested.
should we use a single server for development? but that may lead to
shutdown/ restart of the server frequently during testing and affect
the other developer's work.
anybody please suggest a better way.
thanks in advance.

anilYour milleage may vary from others, here we had this environment setup for
a 7 people developing WLS applications:
- Single server for development (Sun Solaris box)
- using remote telnet from Windows workstation/linux workstation
- create a source code repository (e.g. CVS) for source code control and
user workspace
- create standard deployment descriptor with modular directory structures
- system admin only allowed to startup and shutdown server
- server running in "Development Mode" for hotdeploy and avoid shutdown
and restart.
Thank you,

Intermittent errors when logging to the Workspace - 9.3.1 - SSL Enabled

Hi,
We are on 9.3.1 and everything is SSL enabled except Shared Services.
Several times a day, when users log on to the Workspace, they get an "Invalid username or password" error message. They finally get in after 2 or 3 attempts.
Likewise, occasionally, when opening a Financial Report in the workspace users get "BR - Access is denied". After logging back in a couple of times the problem goes away.
All users are affected but randomly.
I have a feeling it could be related to the SSL congifuration.
Has anyone come across this? we are using an F5 http server.
An Oracle consultant suggested making sure that sticky sessions are enabled but we are not sure how to do that.
BI+ has been configured with Tomcat and IIS.
Thanks for your help.

It depends how you use Weblogic. If it runs as a windows service then I think you should be able to increase the heap size in the Windows registry. Try looking under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> Software -> Hyperion Solutions -> Hyperion Reports ->HRWebSRV and look for an Xms (Minimum heap size) and Xmx (Max heap size values)
If you start your services via the weblogic console then you will need to log on to the Admin console under the Java section.
The heap size values depend on each environment but as long as you have at least 4GB RAM on your server you should be able to set
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
Additionally check your SSL config as this was causing us a lot of problems too.
Hope this helps.

How to find the workspace name in the content schema

Export/Import full database dump fails to recreate the workspaces

Hi,
We are studying the possibility of using Oracle Workspace to maintain multiple versions of our business data. I recently did some tests with the import/export of a dump that contains multiple workspaces. I'm not able to import the dump successfully because it doesn't recreate the workspaces on the target database instance, which is an empty Oracle database freshly created. Before to launch the import with the Oracle Data Pump utility, I have the "LIVE" workspace that exists in the WMSYS.WM$WORKSPACES_TABLE table. After the import is done, there is nothing in that table...
The versions of the Oracle database and Oracle Workspace Manager are the same on source and target database:
Database version (from the V$VERSION view):
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.4.0 Production
TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Workspace Manager version (from the WM_INSTALLATION view):
OWM_VERSION: 10.2.0.4.3
In order to recreate the tablespaces successfully during the full import of the dump, the directory structure for the tablespaces is the same on the target database's computer. I used the instructions given in this document, section "1.6 Import and Export Considerations" at page 1-19:
http://www.wyswert.com/documentation/oracle/database/11.2/appdev.112/e11826.pdf
Considering that the release of Oracle database used is version 10.2.0.4, I use the following command to import the dump since it doesn't contain the WMSYS schema:
impdp system/<password>@<database> DIRECTORY=data_pump_dir DUMPFILE=expfull.dmp FULL=y TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=append LOGFILE=impfull.log
The only hints I have in the import log file are the following block of lines:
1st one:

Since I know that the "imp" and "exp" commands work client side (unlike "impdp" and "expdp"), I did a full export of the source database from the computer on which I try to import the dump to have the same language exported in the dump and I was able to import the dump successfully.
But, I would like to use the Data Pump tool instead of the old import and export tools. How would it be possible to set the NLS parameters that "impdp" must use before to launch the import of the dump?
The NLS parameters are set to the "AMERICAN" settings in both source and destination database when I validate that with the "NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS" view. The dump I did with "expdp" on the source database exported the data with the "AMERICAN" settings as well...
On the destination database, the computer language is in french and I guess it is considered by the Data Pump import tool since it outputs the log in the language of the computer and it tries to do a TO_DATE with the wrong date format because it works with the "CANADIAN FRENCH" settings...
Any suggestions? I'll continue to read on my side and re-post if I find the solution.
Thanks!
