Setting Table Properties?

I hae been messing around with CSS recently and had encountered a problem. How can i change the color, thinkness of the lines and shadow of the 'dividers' in the table? Since CS4 only allowed this to be done in CSS, I have totally no idea how this can be done. Help anyone?

You can see the color and thickness of table borders, but not shadows (well the newer CSS can though it's not supported in all browsers as yet), in which case you will need to use background images.
As already mentioned, if you can provide an example of what you want to achieve, maybe people can explain how it's done :-)

AS: setting table properties in ID CS3 invokes odd error message

I'm converting an InDesign CS2 script to CS3 and am having the strangest error. This code used to work in ID CS2 for the selected text frame:
>tell parent story of insertion point 1 of selection
>set theTable to make table with properties {width:gridColumnWidth, body row count:totalGridRows, header row count:0, footer row count:0, column count:totalGridColumns, height:gridRowHeight, left border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, right border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, top border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, bottom border stroke weight:gridBorderWeight, left border stroke type:"Solid", right border stroke type:"Solid", top border stroke type:"Solid", bottom border stroke type:"Solid", space after:0, space before:0}
>end tell
But now it chokes and gives me this strange error:
>Adobe InDesign CS3 got an error: Invalid value for set property 'height'. Expected number or string, but received 21.80909090909093.
Huh? That obviously has to be a number or string, so what's going on? What's even weirder is if I delete all the table properties except for weight and height, the script doesn't give the error. I know I can do this with a table style, but I'd like to understand what the problem is before I take that step.

Shane:
I was completely distracted by another project and am just getting back to addressing this problem. Sorry about that.
Anyway, your suggestion was a sound one: I set the width and height in the first statement, added everything else in a second statement, and it worked perfectly. Thanks! Any idea why I needed to do so?

Set table properties

Cell padding works fine.
What version of DW are you using and on which operating system?
Can you explain what you're doing and what's not happening as you expect it to?

Labels pointing to pie slices with lines (or how 2 set chart properties in code behind)

I want to be able to create lines outside of my pie chart with labels and have those lines drawn to connect to the pie chart. I saw that this can be done in code behind in the following thread:
MSDN thread on lines to pie slices
But my problem is I never declared an instance of my chart when I am using my code behind. My code that makes the reports visible is basically (but not completely) the following:
ReportDataSet.Tables.Add(ReportDataTable)
ReportViewer.Visible = True
Dim ReportDataSource As ReportDataSource = New ReportDataSource("ReportDataSource", ReportDataSet.Tables(0))
ReportViewer.LocalReport.ReportPath = ReportToDisplay.RDLCFileName
ReportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Clear()
ReportViewer.LocalReport.DataSources.Add(ReportDataSource)
ReportDataSource.Name = ReportToDisplay.DataSetName
ReportViewer.DataBind()
ReportViewer.LocalReport.Refresh()
ReportViewer.ShowReportBody = True
ReportViewer.Width = RVWidth
ReportViewer.Height = RVHeight
So how do I set chart properties for my report given the above code? As long as I can set my chart properties with the above code, I should be able to get this to work given the above thread and the link to the Label-Outside-of-Pie and Line-Color properties
(or whatever) info on Microsoft's info page

Hello,
Based on your description, you want to design a
pie chart with outside lables and pie line inside a .rdlc report. If so, you can add the Chart report item into the report after open a client report definition (.rdlc) file in graphical design mode. And then Set the
PieLabelStyle property and PieLineColor property. Please refer to the following screen shot:
The link your post above it about the
Chart Web server control. As pre my undersntand, you cannot reference a Web server control inside .rdlc file.
If you have any question about using Chart Web server control, you can post a question on
Chart Controls for .NET Framework forum.

OMB: unable to set SQLLoader properties in a Mapping (TRAILING_NULLCOLS...)

Hello,
I've created a Mapping from a Flatfile to a table.
Since SQL-Loader is used I have to set several properties (TRALING_NULLCOLS, FILELOCATION, etc)
However, every property I try to set fails by the same error:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'MAP_DIM_UNIT_TEST' \
SET PROPERTIES (TRAILING_NULLCOLS) VALUES ('true')
--> OMB02902: Error setting property TRAILING_NULLCOLS of MAP_DIM_UNIT_TEST: MMM1034: Property TRAILING_NULLCOLS does not exist.Reading and setting these properties on Mappings created by the Design Center was no problem.
What am I missing?
When configuring a Mapping in the Design Center I have to create the "SQL Loader Data Files".
Maybe that's got something to do with it. I have no idea how to do that with OMBPlus.
Any clue?
Regards
uhuebner

Hi
You should set the GENERATION LANGUAGE property to SQLLOADER for the map. The property set is different depending on the type of the map, the UI does some tricks I think and sets up, but the API does not (it does at certain points like generation/validation).
Here are some other snippets you will find useful.....
1. To add a source data file to a mapping:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'LOAD_LOCATIONS' ADD SOURCE_DATA_FILE 'LOCATIONS_APAC'
2. To define the discard file info
OMBALTER MAPPING 'LOAD_LOCATIONS' MODIFY SOURCE_DATA_FILE 'LOCATIONS_APAC' SET PROPERTIES (DISCARD_FILE_LOCATION,DISCARD_FILE_NAME) VALUES ('APAC_FILE_STG_LOC', 'apac_discard.txt')
3. To define the data file info
OMBALTER MAPPING 'LOAD_LOCATIONS' MODIFY SOURCE_DATA_FILE 'LOCATIONS_APAC' SET PROPERTIES (DATA_FILE_LOCATION, DATA_FILE_NAME) VALUES ('APAC_FILE_STG_LOC', 'apac_data.txt')
4. To define the bad file info
OMBALTER MAPPING 'LOAD_LOCATIONS' MODIFY SOURCE_DATA_FILE 'LOCATIONS_APAC' SET PROPERTIES (BAD_FILE_LOCATION,BAD_FILE_NAME) VALUES ('APAC_FILE_STG_LOC', 'apac_bad.txt')
5 To query the files it is not obvious (or consistent with other commands)...
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'SR_AGS_LDR' GET SOURCE_DATA_FILE
Notice the 'GET SOURCE_DATA_FILE' is singular even though it possibly return a list (in most other commands some form of the plural is used ie. GET TABLE OPERATORS).

How to set table alternating color

how do i set the properties of table with alternating color
properties :
design : alternating
it is like normal table , although i have change the properties of design to alternating.....
pls advice

Hi Yzme,
When you change the Table Design propety to "<b>alternate</b>", change the <b>readOnly </b>property to <b>"true</b>". Then the table will display the alternate colors but the table will be read only.
Refer to the following thread also:

Essbase Studio--cannot set essbase properties at parent level

Hi,
I have a recurssive hierarchy product dimension.Source is an oracle table something like
Parent child alias
P p1 ap1
p p2 ap2
p1 p11 ap11
p1 p12 ap12
I have an self-join between parent and child column and have no issues related to hierarchy building
However i am able to set an alias to all other members except the member P.
Any advice on the issue will be helpful!!!
Regards,

Is P the Dimension name?
For example the dimension is entity and the hierarchy is
Entity all entities
Entity Alternate pollup
All Entities zzz
If so, you would set the properties directly for the Dimension member
IF it is not, then can you add where P is a child of the dimension member?
In recursive hierarchies, you should only be setting the properties on the child members as they should be the parent of other members or the level zero members themselves

Can't set Table preferences

I understand that Dreamweaver Inserts a new table based on your previous tables' setup - which is a lousy way to set preferences. However, when I Insert a Table I no longer get the dialog box popup that allows me to set initial Properties - it just inserts a uselss 200px wide table with border set 1. How can I change this?

Div is ver dodgy (doesn't give any line break at all in some email clients)
Show me an example of code that doesn't give a line break with <div>. Sorry, I just don't believe this.
Span is even worse
But who would use that anyhow?
Float is an absolute disaster.
That's not my experience.
What do you use to attach the inline styles to?
<p> tags or <div> tags work OK for me.
We still get templates from our clients (who are big corporations) that are all table-based.
Then you don't have much choice. Just make sure that the code is valid before using them.
I tried it in design view but it just inserts the table - I'm not getting the dialog box where you can set the properties.
You should be - I don't recall what it is you have to do to retrieve this. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?

Design for different set of properties

I have to store two sets of properties related to my transaction table
received amount is apportioned to
1) Principle, fee, late fee
received amount is in the form of
2) Cash,check, money order
suppose when I receive a sum of 100 from any customer then this amount is apportioned as 1) Principle- 50, Fee-25, late fee-25
2) Cash -50, Check 50
Is there any best approach to show this in relational data base model.
Please assist.
Thanks,
Hesh.

Hi,
I guess we can have one table which stores, payment mode ( check / cash / money order)
another table for payment details ( Principle, fee, late ,fee) apart from the regular transaction table.
You would be ended up with multiple trasaction records, but I guess transaction tables are meant to be like that.

Tabular data model: Query keeps timing out when attempting to Edit Table Properties

Tabular data model (SSDT)
Problem: I have a table in tabular data model using a SQL Query for a data source. The query in question requires about 3 minutes to regenerate. When I open Edit Table Properties for this data source the query times out and I get an error (see below): "
Failed to retrieve data from udvTrainJobReportsData. Reason: Query timeout expired"
This seems to happen anytime I use a query that takes longer than a couple of minutes to regenerate. Anyone have an idea on how to get around this. Is there a timeout setting somewhere in tabular data model that can be increased?
Thanks...

Hi ManikantM,
According to your description, you query keeps time out when edit table properties. Right?
In this scenario, this error is thrown when connection or query execution exceeds the time out value. Please try to import this table and then increase the connection time out seconds.
We can increase to ExternalCommandTimeout in Analysis Server Properties. Please refer to link below:

Hi,
We could add the seconds in the timeout values.
Then, if you want to add the timeout values for the SQL Query, please following the link to do:

IOS initial setup: can't set wifi properties eg proxy

Problem: The wizard that starts for setting up a new IOS device lets you select a wifi point to connect to, for which you'll be prompted to enter a password but it's missing the usual ">" menu where you can enter further settings such as a proxy.
If proxy settings are mandatory the device cannot connect to the internet to progress through the wizard.

How add Custom Collection Form Tab in Table properties

Hi,
Request :
We would like to add a new tab on the table properties of a physical model.
Example
Explanation :
If we have a table with the following form: CREATE TABLE_1 (COL1 CHAR (10), COL2 NUMBER (6) COL3 VARCHAR2 (20));
We would like that the new tab to be similar to the one above.
This tab should have for each vertical column - the table columns names.
This tab should be displayed only if the table has a stereotype "LOV" for "List Of Values"
For each row in the screen above we will write the values of each table records.
Objective :
When we Generate Database the following SQL command must be generated : INSERT INTO TABLE_1 (COL1, COL2, COL3) VALUES ('', '', '');
We thought to add this command in the .XDB file (DBMS definition file) at table-level category => DBMS :: Script \ Objects \ Table \ Create
and using variables %TABLE% and %TABLDEFN%. But the TABLDEFN variable provides column names and types, "COL1 CHAR (10), COL2 NUMBER (6) COL3 VARCHAR2 (20)." Given that this variable is not very interesting we have achieve our goal with an extension (XEM). In fact we are able to generate an extension that will give us the following SQL command: insert into TABLE_1 (COL1, COL2, COL3) values ('', '', ''); following the creation of the CREATE TABLE statement.
To complete with value we have need our custom form tab.

Hi Benoit,
To get a tab with a list, you need object to fill it. In your case, you need to define (in your xem or xdb) a new extended sub-object SAM (stereotype as metaclass) with several attributes (one per column COL1, COL2, ...) -- It could be dynamically defined but you may enter the dark side of xem enhancement -- let's start with the three extended attributes.
With the new SAM, you can create an extended composition on your table, targeting the new SAM. In the composition definition, set the columns you want to display (COL1, COL2, COL3 + whatever you want)
=> You then will have your new tab with COL1, COL2 and COL3 columns
Once done, you can enter values within your tab.
How to add it in the generation ?
In the XEM, create the statement in a template ("filldatatable") under Table metaclass that iterate on composition and use
<<
.set_value(TablCode, "%Code%")
.set_value(ColnList, "")
.foreach_item(Columns)
.set_value(ColnList, "[%ColnList%?%ColnList%, :%ColnList%]%Code%")
.next("")
.foreach_item(DataValues)
insert into %TablCode% (%ColnList%) values(%insertdata%)
.next(";\n")
>>
-- This assume your table has three columns !!! (you can enhance it to fit your needs)
The %insertdata% is a template from your extended sub-object filled with
<<
%.q:COL1%, %.q:COL2%, %.q:COL3%
>>
In order to include it in your sql-generation you have to instruct PowerDesigner to do so. You use the AfterCreate item that would add some sql after the generation:
(.// is a comment)
<<
.// Because the scope is limited to active XDB, we need to instantiate a vbscript to reach the xem definitions.
.// If the extension is embedded into current xem, a simple call to template would have been enough.
.vbscript()
ScriptResult = ActiveSelection.Item(0).EvaluateTextFor("%filldatatable%", "FillDataTable")
.endvbscript()
>>
At the end, you then have this in data
And this in preview
I attached the xem I made for example (change .txt to .xem)

11g Physical Table Properties: "Parallel" misses "no selection"

Hi,
in 4.0.0.833 the generated SQL for a table has no "NOPARALLEL" clause, if you select "NO" in the 11g Physical Table Properties.
I think it should be empty/yes/no (like e.g. "logging") and generated the clauses accordingly.
See parallel_clause in the docs.
Best regards,
Blama

Hi Blama,
The NOPARALLEL clause is not normally generated as it is the default.
If you set the "Include default settings in DDL" option in the Data Modeler/DDL Preferences, the NOPARALLEL clause will be generated.
LOGGING is treated differently as it does not have such a well-defined default. If the LOGGING or NOLOGGING clause is not specified for a Table, it defaults to the Logging specified for the relevant Tablespace.
The "empty" option here indicates use the default for the Tablespace.

David
