Setting Sidebar's Width to Zero?

Does someone know a way to set permanently the sidebar's width, and forall Finder windows?
This question has already been asked in the past and didn't receive a positive answer as far as I know. There doesn't seem to be a global variable anywhere, either in System Preferences, Finder Preferences or any of the .plist files.
There is a way to do this through AppleScript, but I wanted to know if anybody had an easier solution for this.
(BTW, the AppleScript I now have is a folder action... and it works. One must add the action to each folder though... So I still have to do some work to automatically add the action to the folder when it is created.)

Setting the sidebar to "zero"? In other words you
want to simply eliminate the sidebar in all Finder
windows? A double-click on the small dimple in the
center between your sidebar and the first column
should do it?
Oh yes, I know about that, macjack. Or I could drag it until it is hidden ("closed"). The problem with this is that it is not a global variable, nor is it an inherited one.
So, each time I create a new folder and open it, this folder's window has a sidebar, which I may not see if I chose "Open folders in the same window" AND created a new folder inside an existing one. Drag this folder to the desktop however, or simply create a new folder on the desktop, the sidebar is there.
Each folder remembers its window's sidebar status, but this is a case by case affair, not a global one.
Since seeing the sidebar may well be a matter of personal taste or working conditions, it would be fun to have a handle on a global variable managing this. I've looked at both com.apple.systempreferences.plist and com.apple.sidebars.plist, but to no avail. There is no such global variable as far as I can see.
The Finder will allow you to choose if you want column view or not as a general rule, but nothing about the sidebars...

rwconverter.exe is a separate executable(It is rwcon60.exe)
1.Invoke rwconverter.exe executable.
2. In the conversion page:
a. Set document type to Report.
b. Set Source Type to Report Binary File (RDF).
c. Set Source to the name of the existing bit-mapped report, example "old.rdf"
d. Set Destination Type to Report Binary File (RDF).
e. Set Destination to the name of the new character-mode report, example "new.rdf".
4. On the options page, set Destination Unit to Character.
5. Click OK. This will convert the report to character mode repot.
6. Use this new.rdf in your forms application. You don't need add any parameter. Just make sure you use this new report.
This should solve the problem. If you still get the error, open the report and resize the field which gives the error.

REP-1219 : 'Body' has no size - length or width is zero

Hi.
I am using reports 6i (6.0.8.11.3). There is a report which runs
successfully, and suddenly after adding some fields to the
layout, it start giving the error :-
REP-1219 : 'Body' has no size - length or width is zero
I have checked everything in the layout and it appears to be
perfectly fine. In fact i have faced this problem several times
on Reports 6i.
Any help?
Thanks

There are two sets of circumstances that have caused this error
for me.
Firstly, when I have tried to run an .rdf that was written under
version 2.5 or earlier of reports and I did not use the r25mrep
executable to migrate the .rdf.
Secondly, when a report is run in character mode it resizes and
aligns objects to the nearest point on a grid 'x' characters in
width and 'y' in height. If an objects top edge gets rounded
down and the bottom edge gets rounded up, to the same point on
the grid, then the object has no height or width and the error
happens.

Help with setting up full width site?

Hello!
I'm new, Been following a lot of videos. I'm mainly interested in creating a full width or full screen parallax site like:
http://leicastorela.com/
I'm getting stuck on the initial NEW SITE DIALOG. I'm setting 1100 as width, 500 as height. I've zeroed out the gutters, padding etc. But when I preview I still get gray bars on the side? See screen shot.
What should I set the NEW SITE parameters as to achieve the full screen look? Thank you
PS: I even tried extending the menu bar all the way past the gray bars, same results. I'm on 7.3. I notice when I stretxh the black bar to the edge it does not say 100%? I think I'm on the latest version. I know that feature is new?

When you want to create a full sceen effect you have to extend your object/image outside the page size to the
ends of the grey area. See attached image.
Make sure you see the red lines appear on each side of the page when you extend your artwork to the edge.
This effect works for base objects for photos make sure you have "scale to fill" marked when inserting
it in a box.

Setting different pages widths in different sections - Pages 5.2

In Pages 5.2, how does one set different page widths (margins) in different sections?

You can't. Margins apply to the entire document.
What you can do is set the margins to their max width and then use left and right indents for the sections you want narrower.

Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?
<Re-Titled By Host>

No, because you can't set a columns view default.

How to set the column width in the PDF exports of interactive reports ?

Hello,
I have a huge problem with the PDF export for the Interactive reports. I'm using APEX 3.2.
I have to produce a PDF report in landscape format that show 21 columns. My problem is that the columns have a ridiculous short width and that the text inside the columns do not wrap in the columns. So I get things like that :
Date Name
2011 Leina
I should see 2011-08-01 and the name Leinad Jan
I tried several things to format the columns, but none of the them has any effect on the PDF itself.
1) I used HTML code in the report query. It works well with the interactive report, but display the HTML tags in the PDF.
2) I used css to set the width of my columns. It works in the interactive report, but not in the PDF, the column width do not change.
It's like the report do not notice that my page format is Legal 14 x 8.5 (Landscape) and still believe it's 8.5 x 11 (which is "portrait")
Do you have any idea so set the columkn widths in the reports ?
Thank you !
Edited by: leinadjan on Aug 1, 2011 11:15 AM

To "remember" the column widths, add a mouse listener to the table header. Upon mouseReleased(), get the column widths and save them to your file. When the application starts next time, get the stored widths and set them using:
table.getColumn("XXX").setPreferredWidth(...);
By default, your columns are adjustable, but you can use:
table.getTableHeader().setResizingAllowed(true);

How to set a specific width to all the TextInputs used in a mxml file on its creation complete?

How to set a specific width to all the TextInputs used in a mxml file on its creation complete?

Hi subhajit nag,
I think the best approach would what I say is if you can make use of a Global variable or using a Singleton class having a variable which can be accessed globally through out the application.
Below is the sample what I am talking to:
So in below example you can access the variables textInputWidth and textInputHeight globally throghout the application since you have decalred them in main mxml file.
You can access these variabled in another mxml file as Application.application.textInputWidth and Application.application.textInputHeight. So if at all you are required to modify these values you are only required to modify at a single place in main mxml file..thats it.
If you are use any Singleton classes like ModelLocator you can place these variables in this class and refer from that class.
Hope this resoved your problem..

Can you set a minimum width?

Is there any way to set a minimum width for any point on the image that you're producing or already produced?

Illustrator does not hava a find the stroke with the smallest width command, so you will have to locate that manually. Suppose the line you find is 1mm thick. You would scale all your artowrk 150% with scale strokes & effects on. Then double click on scale tool and turn off scale strokes and effects and enter 66.67%
Your result will be all your strokes will be 150% their original size.
Now if your artwork has nto storkes, you will have to add strokes to the atrwork to fatten everythign up for silk screen.
Also if you want to just change all your 1. mm strokes to 1.5, you can select an element with a 1.0 mm stroke, use select >> same stroke Weight , and then change the width to 1.5mm.

New to portal: Setting the column width in portal QBE report

I'm trying to set different widths to different columns in the QBE report. One of the columns in the report contains long descriptive text. With the default column width the reports runs into many pages and user has to scroll a lot. I would like to set the column width for this column so that it does not wrap for every 2/3 words. In the customization tab, I'm setting the width type to "Char" and selecting the number of characters to be displayed in that coulmn. Percent/pixel width type also didn't help. Should I set the Header width also?. I'm not sure where to set this header column width.QBE report just ignores these customization parameters and displays the report in default format. Please let me know if you have any idea/solution to this problem.

See the picture below. I want the two buttons to stay the same distance apart, and I want the grouped buttons to stay the same distance from the right edge of the window, even as a user resizes the window.
This is what happens when you reduce the size of the window .....
I would like to stop this from happening.
I can't figure out how accomplish keeping the parent div a fixed width, and a fixed position from the right side of the window, so the buttons won't overlap.
Perhaps I'm doing the whole thing wrong.
I mean, is there a way to accomplish this without grouping the buttons? That is, make the buttons fixed width, fixed distance apart from each other, and fixed distance from the right side of the window, even as the user resizes the page?
I am trying to accomplish this using the Min/Max width settings, but given that there are so many different units to choose from, and the fact that when I place a button or box on the screen, it seems to be creating that button or box with a percentage-based width, I don't know how many pixels to set it to.... sigh....
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Okay after much futzing I figured out at least part of the solution I need, but if someone knows of a more efficent way to do this please let me know.
I set a fixed minimum width in pixels for both of the buttons at 156px.
I then made the left button float left and the right button float right.
I then made the parent div for the buttons float right.
That made the buttons stay the same size.
The only thing I need to figure out how to do now is make the parent div stay a consistent distance in pixels from the right. I tried setting a right margin but that didn't work. As you size the window down, the div gets closer to the edge, until it passes it.
