Setting minimum point size, while also setting type size to zero?
I am creating forms in Acrobat X with editable fields from InDesign (CS6). I know I can set the type to zero to fit more type than the field allows for. Two questions... 1) Where do I set the type to zero? (Buttons and Forms in InDesign or after the PDF is created in Acrobat?) 2) How do I set a maximum type size so that the type will start at 9 pt and shrink from there?
Thanks again!!
For text fields that are not set to be multiline, the initial font size is dependent on the height of the field when the font size is set to Auto. That's about the most control you have. For multiline text fields, it seems to default to a font size of 12 as long as the field is tall enough for that.
There are some things you can do via JavaScript so that a field starts out with a fixed font size and when the field is full, switches to a size of Auto, but it isn't as seamless as you may want. Post again if you'd like to pursue this approach.

How to set Minimum size of JFrame?
Hi,
I want to set minimum size of my JFrame. How can i set it?
I want to maintain a minimum size while resizing the JFrame. The user should not resize beyond the minimum size of JFrame.
Any body knows solution, please post it.
Thanks in Advance.One posible solution is to add a ComponentListener to the
JFrame that implements ... (struggles to remember) ...
componentResized().
Inside componentResized(), check the size of your JFrame,
and if it is smaller than your preferred minimal dimension,
resize it up to your minimum.
// in the constructor, perhaps, or initialization routine
addComponentListener(
newComponentAdapter()
public void componentMoved(ComponentEvent e)
Dimension size = e.getComponent().getSize();
size.width = Math.max(size.width, myMinimalWidth);
size.height = Math.max(size.height, myMinimalHeight);
e.getComponent.setSize(size);
}); Pity there's no setMinimumSize() like the JComponent class.
Best of luck !

Error while setting Minimum value to Input Number Spin Box..
Hai
I drag and drop a VO and created a table.In that table,i convert a column which contain an InputText field to Input Number Spin Box.At the time of page load ,the table fetches the datas from the DataBase and showing Number values in the SpinBox.After that,When i scroll the table through vertical scrollBar,the table showing *"fetching data"* and Error is throwing as *"The value must be Number"* .. In the VO,this attribute is Number.
THIS ERROR ONLY OCCURS when i set the Minimum value of spinBox ..The purpose of setting minimum value is that i only want user to select ve value only..How can i restrict the user for selecting only ve values..?(ie,*How can i set minimum value to SpinBox?)*Try changing the datatype of your attribute in the EO to be Double instead of Number.

Error while filling set up table SD-Billing Documents - Perform Setup
Hello friends,
while filling set up table of SD-Billing Documents - Perform Setup
i am getting error 'TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED' . i am executing this job in background process . Please suggest me a solution .
Regards
Nilesh VakilHi,
Try some other LO extractor in RSA3 to check if you get the same error.
If you dont then it may not be system memory issue, check if thr is some user exit written for the extractor.The problem could be in the user exit whr the internal table may get overflown and lead to the page overfloen dump.
If this is also not the case try reducing the packet size.
Let me know if the issue is resolved.

I'm almost sure I'm missing something but I cannot find a solution. I'm using LR (currently 2.2) for quite a while (since 1.2) but I simply cannot find an easy, user friedly and predictable way how to set a white point of edited pictures.
In PS, CR, DPP and most other editing SW and RAW processors, there two typical easy tools how to set the white point.
1) a white point picker which (when used) defines a desired tone as white and the relevant SW then redistributes the tones accordingly;
2) in "levels" or "curves" dialog (or their equivalents it is possible to move the "White level" treshold below which the remaining tones are redistributed accordingly - the iterface varies (sometimes it is the border of the histogram or curve diagram that can be moved (DPP), sometimes it is the slider in histogram or curve diagram setting this limit
botw ways generally lead to the same and quite uniform result. I.e. I'm usually able to get almost identical result by setting white point in PS, DPP, CR, .... and other SW by such simple operation when working over identical picture data.
However in LR it is virtually impossible to achieve similar result in LR. No white point picker, no slider enabling setting the white limit, no chance to move borders in the histogram chart. The only available tools for this purpose are
"Exposure" and "Brightness". None of them providing for the desired functionality alone - their combination giving sometimes acceptable but hardly predictable results (definitely not as predictable as achieved e.g. in PS by simple and single move of white limit slider in "level" dialogue or equivalent step in CR.
Do I really miss something important (I hope so) in this respect or is LR completly lacking this (for me really core/basic) functionality present in all other photo and RAW editting SW I know - even from Adobe?
thanksI agree with the original poster - I find it troublesome to set the white point in an image. In a situation where a traditional (PS, Aperture) levels control would make it convenient to push a particular tone to white, I find myself going back and forth between exposure and the tone curve a fair amount. Another description of what I want, effectively, is a 'recovery' slider that goes up as well as down.
(See end of post for replies to a few specific points.)
An example:
Here is the original image, with its histogram and tone curve - black to middle gray:
I want to push the small hatch/door to white, but that also overexposes my middle grays (I haven't yet touched the tone curve):
So now I go to the tone curve, and pull down both darks and lights:
However, at this point I've lost my whites (they are not quite clipped any more); and probably more importantly, since the tone curve is at the extreme low values, I have little working room or control.
Rather than working together or providing complementary functions, in this case exposure and the tone curve, to me, seem to be fighting; it requires back-and-forth to get the desired effect.
(To be clear, most of the time - that is, when my white point starts out more or less where I want it - being able to drag the histogram and smoothly-transitioned segments of the tone curve is brilliantly easy and useful. It's specifically the exposure control's nonlinear behavior/effect that I dislike, as it makes it difficult to adjust near-white tones.)
Responding to specifics:

Cool! (However, not a fix for this issue.)

I think this is the root of the issue, for me - the exposure control is being intelligent in a way to protect hilights, which is counter to my intent. My experience leads me to disagree strongly with Joa's comment (though I would be very happy to discover I was wrong) - my problem is specifically that adjusting exposure up (brightening the image with exposure) affects tones less, the brighter they are.

The brightness adjustment seems analogous to my use of the tone curve, though it's an alternate approach I haven't tried. However, both seem to suffer from the 'several rounds' problem.

How can i set the pointer of a resultset to its start position? newbie.. :(
hi all.
i have a resultset of a sql query. then i wanna count the number of rows by doing a while loop:
while(rs.next())
count++;
then i wana do the same again, but it does not work anymore. i guess i have to set the pointer to its starting position, but i tried beforeFirst(), first(), absolute() and it didnt work. what method do i have to use for this?
thanks! :)
j0shUse the getType method to determine if your ResultSet is of type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY. If it is
then you cannot reset the cursor. You may be able to obtain a result set that allows reseting the cursor by
passing the appropriate arguments to the createStatement method of your Connection. Whether your
will get one or not depends on the JDBC driver you are using and whether it supports them.

Problem: Creating groups out of a set of points in 2D space based on their relative proximity
Hi,
I'm new to LabVIEW and I've tried doing this several times, but I just can't solve it.
Problem:
I've got a set of points in the 2D space(x,y), and I want to calculate the mean of the sets of closely spaced points.
Example:
Consider 5 points, A(1,2); B(2,3); C(100,200); D(120,220); E(110,210); F(500,600)
I'm trying to get the output a set of points
P[ (1+2)/2 , (2+3)/2 ]
Q[ (100+120+110)/3, (200+210+220)/3 ]
S[ 500, 600 ]
Where the outputs are the means of the points taken in sets which are composed of "closely" paced points(within a limit).
I.e.., (A,B) are close; (C,D,E) are close, while E is separated from the rest, within a small limit(say 30).
This has been causing a lot of problems for me recently and I have to solve it. Image included.
Any suggestions/ideas are most welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!

Problem_1.png 9 KBHi,
"Data clustering" is exactly what I was looking for, and I checked the link. Very informative. Thanks on that.
I didn't post my code intentionally because it's very cluttered and inefficient.(I've just started using Labview).
But my Algorithm is simple and trivial.
1. Take any one point and compare it with every other point within a limit(say L).
2. If comparable, then add an entry into a 2D array, if non-existent else just ignore(points have already been accounted for).
(The 2Darray has each column representing a collection of comparable points,i.e. 1 group and N such columns for N point in all)
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining points.
4. Finally, construct a 1D array, with each element representing the mean point based on values taken per column from the 2D array.
Also, this Algorithm works fine for my application(less than 30 points), so I haven't tested it for a large number of points.
I bet It'll be highly inefficient, considering the more widely use clustering algorithms out there.
However, if you know of any VI's or simple algorithms for such(small data set), it would be highly beneficial to me. -
Setting White Points in Camera Raw
When setting white points in Adobe Camera Raw, while holding down Alt (on a PC), are the red marks what I should look for? Because white marks also appear? Which ones are relevant for the white point?
ACR doesn’t work that way. There is an eyedropper for the overall white-balance that you can set by clicking on a relatively bright, neutral area, but there aren’t black and white-point eyedroppers. But, what is clipped black or white is determined by the output colorspace you have set at the bottom and you can get some idea of what will be clipped black and white by turning on the clipping indicators and watching for the areas you’d be eye-droppering on (the black and white patches in your grayscale) to start showing the clipping color overlay for black and white, but any further toning adjustments will move data in and out of what is darker than black and lighter than white so what is clipped for output will change as you fiddle with the various toning sliders.
The reason things are different: In PS, when you set a black-point and white-point in Levels and click Ok, the data below and above those is thrown away and that is the starting point for the next adjustment. In ACR, things are non-destructive and all the adjustments occur simultaneously, rather than sequentially as in PS, and no clipping occurs until you create the output file. This means that the pixels that are darker than your black-point and lighter than your white-point are still there, and can be moved into the black-to-white range if you do further toning adjustments. Having more headroom of the pixels that are outside the black-to-white range is good because you won’t get the posterization or banding that occurs when colors and levels are clipped after each adjustment in PS.
Can you describe what you intend your overall workflow to be on an image: how much adjusting will occur in ACR and how much, if any, might happen in PS, after the image is opened into PS from ACR, or opened from a file saved from ACR? There might be other ways to approach what you’re trying to accomplish. -
How come a font set at a certain pixel size is not actually that size when you measure it's height? For example, a font set at size 24 pixels is actually only 16 pixels tall (cap height).
Hello, indeed, as Semaphoric stated, the Em box is not the same as the Cap heigh...
It is described in length in this blog post by Thomas Phinney http://www.thomasphinney.com/2011/03/point-size/
