Setting the layer name from a format plugin with CS2 and before

Hello,
I wrote a new format plugin and the name of the layer shown in PS , when I read a file, does not seem to be consistent on all computers for versions CS2 and before : some times I get "Background" and some times I get "Layer 0" .
When the layer is named is "Background", it is locked. If I double click on the layer, I get a panel to rename it and the name suggested is "Layer 0" (and not "Background").
Somehow, it seems that my plugin is not doing exactly the right thing or there is a setting in PS options (or in the registry) that controls/causes that behavior. My understanding is that we can't name layers from the plugin before version CS3 (setting the layerName field in the FormatRecord makes no difference for CS2 and before).
I do not care much about the actual layer name as long as that name is consistent for all installations. Does anybody know what is going on?
Thank you!
Gilbert

If it has transparency, it has to be a layer ("Layer0").
If it doesn't have transparency, it is treated as a background.
And yes, changing the background to a layer does normally rename it to "layer X".

How to set alpha channel names in a format plugin?

I am writing a format plugin with 6 color planes for CMYK mode. I want to set the apha channel names for planes 5 and 6 to "White" and "Clear" instead of "Alpha 1" and "Alpha 2" when I read the color data from my file. How do I set the alpha channel names?
Thanks!

I am still trying to find a solution to this. The propChannelName is read only and the documentInfo structure is NULL when reading. Any suggestions?

How do I set the layer name?

I am trying to find an example of a way to rename a layer. Everything I try seems to fail.
Anyone have any?

I thought I would post the code I was using to see if anyone can figure out why it is not working. I have tried many variables of things similar to below:
error = sPSActionReference->PutProperty(reference, classProperty, keyName);
error = sPSActionReference->PutEnumerated(reference, classLayer, typeOrdinal, enumFirst);
error = sPSActionDescriptor->PutReference(descriptor,
keyNull,
reference);
if (error) goto returnError;
error = sPSActionDescriptor->PutString(descriptor,
keyText,
name);
if (error) goto returnError;
error = sPSActionControl->Play(&result,
eventRename,
descriptor,
plugInDialogSilent);

How to set the snc name to abap server with IDM?

HI all:
I want to set the snc name from IDM , but I didn't konw which attribute that I would be set.
I there anyone konw this?
thanks!

Hi Shi,
I'm guessing you don't know which attribute in the MX_PERSON class contains it?
If this is what you meant, then there isn't a default attribute for that, you can either create one manually or let the synch process create it by enabling "automatic attribute creation" setting for the Identity Store.

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?

Is it possible to preserve the layer name when I copy and paste from Illustrator into Photoshop?
At the moment it just appears as "Vector Smart Object" in Photoshop and I have to take another step and change the layer name.
Thank you!

Not that I know. PS doesn't care for these kinds of things and uses its own naming system.

Is it possible to print the layer name on file/copy when print or export file?

Hi,
I produce a large number of pages in InDesign.
In each document there are 5 layers. 1 layer with images and 4 layers with language-editions.
For safety and quality control I would like to print out the layer name together with the crop-marks.
Like... Documentname / page number/ layerImages - layer language
Is that even possible? That is...without me having to write it myserlf in the bleed. :-)

InDesign's pasteboard, bleed, and slug areas are independent for each document page. Running header text variables in these areas can capture sources on document pages. If you place a text frame with a character style for the layer name, and a character style for the language name, on a layer, and capture them in a character-style-based running header in the slug, for example, the source from whichever layer is visible will appear in the running header in the slug area. Similarly, you can capture other text variables for page number, filename, date/time, etc.
It may take a little fussing to set it up the first time, but thereafter when you change layer visibility, the visible layer name changes automatically.
NOTE: Text frames on master page pasteboards, bleed, or slug areas do not appear on document pages unless they also touch the document page border.

Reading the printer name from the registry

Hi,
I am trying to use the following program to get the Printer name from my Registry.. this program has been taken from Forums.
package yourpackage;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.print.PageFormat;
import java.awt.print.Printable;
import java.awt.print.PrinterException;
import java.awt.print.PrinterJob;
import oracle.forms.ui.VBean;
import oracle.forms.properties.ID;
public class printDialog extends VBean
private static final ID PRINTER = ID.registerProperty("PRINTER");
public printDialog()
class PrintObject implements Printable
public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat f, int pageIndex)
return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
public Object getProperty(ID id)
if (id == PRINTER) {
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
job.setPrintable(new PrintObject());
if (job.printDialog())
return job.getPrintService().getName();
} else {
return null;
} else {
return null;}
This program when compiled gives me the error as
Error(32,12): method getPrintService() not found in class java.awt.print.PrinterJob
I did set the project settings from Project-Project Settings and included Oracle Forms Libraries. But I still continue to get the error.
I understood from the web that I need to put PrintService class which downloaded from the web as part of jnlp.jar
How should I set this if this is the correct one?
Early response would be highly appreciated
Thanks a lot for your time and help
Narain.

Narain,
I could swear I answered this on teh Jdeveloper forum ;-)
The prin service is part pf Java 1.4, which means that it is not available in JInitiator today. Use the Java Plugin 1.4 and the required classes are present. JNLP stands for Java Network Launching Protocoll and has nothing to do with what you want to achieve.
In addition, to read the printer names from Forms your jar file has to be signed.

Set the column name of a table in a list box

is there any code to set the column name of a table in a list box at oracle devloper 6i?
pls help.

I dont want to go for pl/sql . It should work any table.You want Dynamic SQL without using PL/SQL? Tricky. I'm sure there's a possible way using some very complex and convoluted XML functionality of SQL but in reality you are asking for something that isn't natural to SQL queries, especially if you are expecting a dynamic number of columns to be produced for each row of data. SQL expects a table structure, including output formats, to be a defined number of columns with any number of rows, not a defined number of rows with any number of columns.
Perhaps if you explain why you need this sort of functionality then we may be able to offer a better solution.

Setting the display name in a message

Hello for the following code:
String from = "[email protected]";
Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
msg.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
I'd like to set the display name, i.e.
"A Message From Foo"
However I did not see a msg.setDisplayName() method... is there any way to do this?
As a working example, amazon sends an email with a return address of [email protected], but the display name is 'Amazon Payments' which looks a lot nicer for the customer. I'd like to do the same.
Thanks

Solution is:
new InternetAddress(email_address, display_name);

How can I get the host name from Email address?

hi
When I using socket to develope an email-sending servlet,I don't know how to get the host name from emial address.can you help me,thanks

Stripping off the user name will give you the domain of from field in the message. This is not the same as the host. Take a look at:
http://www.stopspam.org/email/headers/headers.html
Theres a pretty good discussion about email headers and how to use the information. You probably want to check the information here against the RFC.

How do I get IE to drop the domain name from authentication responses

All,
I have a number of internal www servers that run various non MS operating systems which are not tied to the windows domain in any way. They are secure www sites and require authentication.
When I connect to one via IE on a domain joined workstation or server (ie 8 & 9) I am unable to authenticate because I can not remove the domain name from the authentication credentials that IE is passing back to the www server. I get an authentication
prompt for user name & password with the domain pre populated.
How the heck to I get IE to NOT pass the domain name as part of the authentication process. I've tried putting .\ in front of the user name but to no avail.
Thanks,
Steve D.

As you can see below, when you first attempt the auth it defaults to you domain user account... in this case win\username.
When you select use another account, you get the following with no means to remove the domain name which causes auth failure as this www server isn't a domain member and doesn't use the domain for auth.
How do I get rid of Domain: .... ???
Thanks,
Steve D.

Retreiving the file names from directory inside another directory from application server

Hi,
I had a problem in retreiving the file names from a directory inside another directory.
I tried using the FM's SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST, RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL and EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING
But here I am getting only one directory details.
Actually my file is located a directory inside one more directory and one more directory and inside the files are located.
i.e total 3 directories inside the 3rd one my files are there.
I need to read the latest file name in the directory.
So that i can do some manipulation after getting the file name.
Is there option like OPEN DATASET , READ DATASET and CLOSE DATASET?
Can anyone please let me know How can i acheive this one.
