Simple Feature Greatly Needed

"Show Invisibles", Please allow the user to see paragraph,
tab, space and soft return symbols.
Our (Newspaper) editorial department is looking for a viable
alternative to MS Word. Our writers don't need much in the way of
WP power... just the basics since all formatting is done in
InDesign. Your product is close for us to give it a go, but
visually when editing on screen, being able to see the hidden
characters is almost a must. I think this is an easy fix for Adobe,
I hope it shows up soon, I really dislike Word and all the
headaches that come with running it on a Mac network.

This is a popular request, and is certainly on our feature
list for a future release, but thanks for enhancing the need for
such a feature.
To help us, help you, please add any future suggestions,
recommendations, or feature requests to the following link:

Feature request (need this)

got my playbook. love it. go canada.
now here are the features i need to improve usability.
allow me to do a text find in browsers. (ctrl-f)
allow me to move the cursor left right up and down by placing one finger in the bottom left bezel and gesturing with my right hand left right up down. its impossible to point to the character i want to insert cursor at. virtual trackpad gesture
allow me to press and hold the number toggle key to let me enter a number. automatically switch back to character entry when i release the number toggle key.
same as above for symbol toggle key
allow me to create folders on the home screen to organize my icons
allow me to create custom banner groups (favorite, media, all, etc)

also...
* allow me to rotate and lock orientation by holding my right finger on the right bezel and making a quarter circle with my left finger (clockwise or counter clockwise). so need this when reading kobo and roll over to one side. landscape lock in top bar is too many swipes
* allow me to press del key instead of backspace key (delete right char instead of left) by touching left bezel while clicking backspace key.

Simple GREP string needed

I have a simple task I need to accomplish and I could use a simple GREP command to do it except I have yet to figure out what that is. Here's what I have:
a paragraph break a number (1, 2, or more digits) and a paragraph break again. I find this easily with the Find command: \r\d+\r
I need to replace the paragraph breaks with a single spaces and place brakets in front of and behind the digits found without changing the digits found. If I use the $0 in the change string it leaves it all the same including the digit or if I use [$0] in the change field it puts teh brakets in but leaves the paragraph breaks. I'm sure there's something simple I'm missing here, but I have not yet figured out what it is. Can someone please help?

The parentheses break the expression into subparts of found text. In this case (paragraph break)(numbers)(paragraph break). You only want to keep the numbers part, so you use the $ notation to tell ID which subpart to keep. $0 is ALL of the found text, $1 is the first group enclosed by parentheses, $2 the second (your numbers), and so on. By choosing $2 you save the numbers, but throw away anything that was found in the first and following subparts.

Meaning of: feature was simple feature call but got receiver instead of null

I implemented my own XbaseInterpreter. I forked the context in my subclass and added some new values. Lets say one of the values has type X.
When I call the evaluate method with my XBlockExpression and the forked context I get the exception
"feature was simple feature call but got receiver instead of null. Receiver: <here the instance of X>
What am I doing wrong?
What does the exception message mean?

Hi Sebastian,
I understand the first part of your answer. In my case the Xbase interpreter tries to assign an object to a variable where the interpreter thinks the left side of the equation is void which leads to the given message "feature was simple feature..."
But I do not understand how this can happen in my case.
I have an XBlockExpression with this content:
val x = 1
return x == 1
The error occurs for the variable declaration when the interpreter tries to assign the integer to the left side.
What am I missing?
Do I have to initialize the evaluation context?
The strange thing is that if I start the interpreter by initializing it with the standalone setup within Eclipse (which is not recommended) I do not get the above mention exception at all ( I do get class cast exceptions because of including the standalone setup but the expression is interpreted correctly).
What is the difference between the standalone setup and the "normal" Eclipse runimte for interpreting expressions?
With regards,
Udo

7D Mark II missing a simple feature from the 70D and Rebels

Please add, by firmware update, the 3x digital zoom (1:1 pixels, really 2.875x) in video feature present in the 70D and many of the Rebel cameras. I can attest to its usefulness from my use of it in my T2i. It's useful for astrophotography, specifically planetary astrophotography where large stacks of video frames are used to create a much better still than can be made any other way. It can also greatly extend the usefulness of a lens like the 18-135STM which would reach 135*1.6*2.875=621mm equivalent without the need to upscale. Finally, it would add the ability to take videos of, say, birds that are of the same resolution (resolving power, not pixel dimensions) as can be obtained from stills.
Ideally, it would be possible to smoothly zoom from full-frame to 1:1 and back using buttons on the back of the camera while shooting is in progress, but even the awkward menu item as it is implemented in the other cameras would be preferable to not having the feature at all.
Further, if it could be implemented while retaining dual pixel focusing (which the 70D does not) that would extend its usefulness even further to moving objects from stationary objects only.
The 7D2 looks to be a spectacular camera with a powerful feature set, which makes it all the more odd that this feature was left out.
Thank you.

Digital zoom is not really zoom, it is in camera crop then enlarge which can be done in post process. It is considered gimmick for consumer market so you will not likely to find it in pro-targeted camera. Same thing with why you do not find those automatic shooting modes on pro camera. Thus, i think you will never see it implemented.

Simple features wish list

Please allow the reading and writing of text files as a standard feature vs having third party software to do so.
In the file manager, please use the default interface for playing music instead of the video player.
Same for pictures.
Please allow choosing default programs for file types. I know that's asking alot. Would be nice though especially when I need to use third party software to read a simple txt file.
Print to my network printer. Everyone else has this... Need. I say more?
A ctrl key, instead of two shift keys an and a bunch keys I'll never ever use.
Arrow keys PLEASE, this is almost required as getting your cursor to drop to the right edit spot is.very frustrating.
If you need a usability tester, I have plenty of experience and will do it for free to have my playbook do the simple things its more than capable of.
Excuse my typing errors. Typing with the pb can be very challenging. autocomplete really causes problems.

Simple Example, I Need Help!

I'm working on a very simple application using Eclipse and MySQL here it is:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v335/shlumph/table.jpg
It's pretty self-explanitory. You enter a person's first and last name, press submit, and their name flops onto the table. I made this naively, and do not know how to make use of reflection and beans, if that's even what I need.
I tried googling on how to make use of reflection and beans when dealing with database connectivity, but there's just so much different kinds of information, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack.
If someone could help point me in a direction to go, post some in depth tutorials, or even point out a good book that I can get on amazon, that would be excellent!
Just incase if you care what I have done naively, here is the database structure and code:
I have a database named addressbook with a table called names. Inside of names there are the following columns:
first_name varchar(20)

Yes, the id column is auto-increment and not null. I
kind of went on a rampage without reading your latter
post and added some more stuff.So tell me why I bothered?
I added in other columns: street, city, state, phone
and email to my database. As well as
fields/setters/getters to my Person class.What does adding more columns do when you can't even insert what you had? Seems foolish. Do the easy thing first, then expand.
I think I went on a different, but similar route then
what you mentioned with the database utility. Mine's the right way. 8)
I
tried making a MySQL generator
interface/implementation along with a PersonDao
interface/implementation, like you mentioned.
Can you give me some more suggestions, I'm sure this
is done noobly/poorly.I like that find idiom for method names. Why did you copy the interface I gave you and add "search"? The idea would be to add find methods that have different parameters. In your case, I'd have a find that takes two String arguments.
It's not just being picky. Consistency matters. If you published this, a user would be likely to think "Why two find methods and a search? Did two people write this?" Pick one and stick to it.
It's great, except for that search method. After all, it's what I gave you.
>
To give you an example, here is my implementation for
methods delete, and find:
     public void delete(Person p) {
          mysql.delete("names", "id", p.getID().toString());
     public Person find(Long id) {
          Person p = new Person();
ResultSet rs = mysql.find("names", "id",
", id.toString());
          try {
               while (rs.next()) {
                    String firstName = rs.getString(1);
                    String lastName = rs.getString(2);
                    String street = rs.getString(4);
                    String city = rs.getString(5);
                    String state = rs.getString(6);
                    String zipCode = rs.getString(7);
                    String phone = rs.getString(8);
                    String email = rs.getString(9);
                    p.setID(id);
                    p.setFirstName(firstName);
                    p.setLastName(lastName);
                    p.setStreet(street);
                    p.setCity(city);
                    p.setState(state);
                    p.setZipCode(zipCode);
                    p.setPhone(phone);
                    p.setEmail(email);;
          } catch (SQLException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          mysql.closeConnection();
          return p;
     }// find()Here is my MySqlGenerator interface:
public interface MySqlGenerator {
     public ResultSet selectAll(String table);
public ResultSet find(String table, String pkColumn,
, String pkValue);
public ResultSet search(String table, String column,
, String search);
public List<Object> select(String table, String
g column);
public void update(String table, String column,
, String pkColumn, String pkValue, String newValue);
public void save(String table, String column, String
g values);
public void delete(String table, String pkColumn,
, String pkValue);
     public void closeConnection();
}And to give you an example, here is the
implementation for delete and find:
public void delete(String table, String pkColumn,
, String pkValue) {
          getConnection();
          try {
               Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
String sql = "DELETE FROM " +table+ " WHERE "
E " +pkColumn+ "=" + pkValue;
               stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
          } catch (SQLException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          } finally {
               closeConnection();
public ResultSet find(String table, String pkColumn,
, String pkValue) {
          getConnection();
          ResultSet rs = null;
          try {
               Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
String sql = "SELECT * FROM" +table+ " WHERE "
E " +pkColumn+ "=" + pkValue;
               rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
          } catch (SQLException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          return rs;
     }So theoretically, if this was done well (which I'm
sure it's not), I could put PersonDao, PersonDaoImpl,
MySqlGenerator, MySqlGeneratorImpl, all into a
package named persistence?I don't see what that MySqlGenerator is all about.
No, I wouldn't recommend doing it this way. Put it all the in the PersonDaoImpl. Better yet, create a subpackage "jdbc" under persistence and put the PersonDaoImpl in there. JDBC is one way to implement this interface. There are lots of others. But this is what you should do to start.
NEVER return a ResultSet from a method that way. Load the contents into an object or data structure and close it inside the method that created it. You're leaking a database cursor that way, AND you're exposing SQL stuff to clients. Keep all the persistence artifacts inside the persistence package. Don't let them leak out that way.
Nope, sorry, I don't think this is it.

Simple viewer help needed please

I need help with this exact problem please which was posted by Kirby on 9th Feb
I can't save into the idisk/web folder although I can copy the files over after they refuse to open (if that means anything)...
"This is for Old Toad. I checked out your demo site which is awesome. I read the tutorial,
Examples of SimpleViewer and Flash Album Exporter Slideshows (plugins for iPhoto)
ADDED USING HTML SNIPPET AND IFRAME
This was great but I am still running into a roadblock. The issue seems to be that in the URL that is given on your demo page...
http://web.me.com/youraccountname/slideshow folder/index.html
....it says to enter my account name (which I did).
I am uploading the simple-viewer folder to my iDisk using the Go menu but inside of the Web/Sites folder there is no folder called Slideshow Folder. So am I right in thinking that the URL has nothing to point too because that folder isn't there? Why isn't it there? And is there anything I can do to solve this? Is there another place the simple-viewer folder should be on my idisk?"

Hi:
When you create the simpleviewer slideshow with iPhoto's plugin there should be a folder created on your HD that contains the items seen in the screenshot below:
The folder was named simpleviewer because that's what I named it during the export from iPhoto. That's the same folder as I refer to as "Slideshow folder". It can be whatever you name it when exporting from iPhoto. Upload that folder to your iDisk/Web/Sites folder as shown below:
In the iFrame code use the following URL to the index.html file inside the simpleviewer folder:
http://web.me.com/YourMMe_AccountName/simplerviewer/index.html
That should do it.

Simple Query Help Needed

I must not be in the right mode today, because this is giving
me a hard time...
I have a SQL Server database with 250,000 records. Each
record represents a medical visit.
Each record has 25 fields that contain patient diagnosis. A
visit may show one diagnosis, or it may show as many as 25. Any
specific diagnosis (250.00 for example) may appear in a field
called Code1, or a field called Code2.... Code25.
There are a total of about 500 patients that make up the
250,000 visits.
What I need is a report that shows each DISTINCT diagnosis,
and a listing (and count) of people that have been assigned that
diagnosis.
My thought is to first query the table to arrive at the
unique list of diagnosis codes. Then, in a nested loop, query the
database to see who has been assigned that code, and how many
times.
This strikes me as an incredibly database intensive query,
however.
What is teh correct way to do this?

The correct way to do this is to normalize your database.
Rather than having 25 separate colums that essentially
contain the same data (different codes), break that out into a
separate table.
Patient
patientid
Visit
patientid (foreign key referencing Patient)
visitid
Diagnosis
visitid (foreign key referencing visitid in Visit)
diagnosiscode
order (if the 1-25 ordering of diagnosis codes is important)
Once you correct your datamodel, what you're trying to do
becomes simple.
-- get all diagnosis codes
select distinct(diagnosiscode) from diagnosis
-- get a breakdown of diagnosis codes, patients, and counts
for that diagnosis
select diagnosiscode, patient.name, count(diagnosiscode) from
patient left join visit on (patient.patientid =
visit.patientid)
left join diagnosis on (visit.visitid = diagnosis.visitid)
group by diagnosiscode, patient.name

Simple button help needed!

I want to make a simple round button that glows when you
mouse over it and depresses when you click it.
Apparently to do this I need to use Filters to make the glow
and bevels. But Filtersonly work on movie clips, buttons and text.
So I make a circle and convert it into a button symbol
(Btn1). Then I make another button symbol (Btn2) and use the first
button symbol (Btn 1) on the Up Over and Down frames of Btn 2.
Assorted Filters are applied to Btn 1 on the Up Over and Down
frames to get the effects I want.
I test the button (Btn2) using Enable Simple Buttons. It
works perfectly - glows on mouse over and depresses on click. Then
I try Test Movie -- and the button doesn't work!!!
Not does it work when exported as a SWF file!!!
I watched a tutorial video that came with my Flash Pro 8
Hands-On-Training (HOT) book and he used pretty much the same
technique -- except he only tested his button with Enable Simple
Buttons. I'll bet my house his didn't work with Test Movie either!
The stupid thing, is I was just able to achieve exactly what
I wanted very quickly using LiveMotion 2!
What is wrong here? Why is it so impossible to create a glow
button in Flash? Why has it been easy in Live Motion for years?
All help appreciated!
Thanks

I thought the nesting button situation might be the problem
BUT there is no other way to apply Filters to Up, Down, etc. Also,
a freaking tutorial book described that as a valid method, but
obviously it ain't.
I tried using movieclips as well but basically had the same
problem.
I mentioned LiveMotion 2 because that ancient program can do
easily what Flash Pro 8 seems incapable of.
What is the logic behind not allowing Filters to be applied
to simple graphics? It's absurd!
There's got to be a way...

I have a new iMac and want to use my HP 7300 All in One and to use the "Fax"feature I need a phone port on computer and of course, this computer does not have one. Are there any aftermarket devices for USB to phone that would work in this case?

I have a new iMac and want to use my HP 7300 "All in One and cannot use the fax feature because there is no phone port is there a solution for this?BACellli

You don't need a phone port on the iMac. The HP 7300 DeskJet Pro has an internal modem, you connect the printer's modem connection directly to your phone line. Please re-read the install directions that came with the printer.

Simple Feature Greatly Needed
