Slide size issues with copy from another project

Working with Captivate 4. I have a completed project where I have a slide I would like to re-use in a new project. The recording options for each project are the same - full screen recording. The image is being cut off all the way around the when I 'Copy Slide' in Project A and 'Paste Slide' in Project B.
If the layout size is the same, why is the image being cropped/adjusted in the Paste? Is there any way to adjust the size of the image when pasting an entire slide into a project?
Thanks in advance,
D

Hi again
Seems odd. But I may have a workaround. What if instead of copying the slide, you simply insert a Blank slide in the new project? Then you copy the background of the slide from the older one and paste as background into the newer? Results the same then or what?
Cheers... Rick

Issue with Results from Another Query (Error on Null value)

Hi All,
We have a WebI report using "Result from Another Query" option of BO XI R3.1. The report was running fine till recently the dimension object using result from another query had a null value. Report suddenly throwed error as the query filters are invalid.
Is there a way to make this filter optional if no data/null value is there ? Because we need those null values in report as well.
Thank you for your time.
Thanks & Regards
LN

Hi Vivek,
It was not directly solved but I applied alternate logic to over come the issue.
Here's what I did to overcome:
I used a sub query in place of the whole result from another query.
For Ex:
Dim1 inlist result from another query1
I made it as
Dim1 inlist (Dim0)
where Conditions.
Here Dim0 is the object which we use for Result from another query and Conditions will be the necessary filter conditions to arrive proper Dim0. Make sure proper context is formed for the sub query.
Even though it resolved my problem, It introduces an new issue. It causes increase in query run time when huge set of data is returned from sub query.
Please let me know if i haven't explained clearly.
Hi Aris_BO,
Sorry for not responding earlier. The logic would probably make more queries null & not null. Thats why I was not advised to use it.
Thanks

CS6 audio won't play on sequence copied from another project

I copied a sequence from Project 1 and pasted it into Project 2 yesterday. It worked fine yesterday. Today I tried to open up the sequence, and the audio was "browned out." I right clicked on "reveal in project" and the correct audio file came up.
Other sequences that I did not import are playing back fine.
What's up?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2uu7gugk866yeug/browned%20out.png

In case someone else finds this thread - the fix was to select all the audio tracks, right click on them, click on Audio Channels, and change the source channel to whatever the available option was. In a couple instances, I switched to "None." and it turned green, but was inaudible. Then I did it again and switched back to whatever the other option was, and it played again.
Thanks!

File.copyTo - issues with copied Flash10 Project .app

I'm currently working on a project which has functionality to export a selected number of slides to a Folder, complete with a Flash 10 .exe or .app to play the files with.
I've been running into a major issue with copying the .app. Once the presentation has been exported from the Installed AIR app, the .app projector file will not open, it attempts to open and immediately closes again.
Funnily enough, it works perfectly when outputting from the Flash IDE (coding in flex) in the debugger, the .app file is copied fine and it works perfectly. It's only when attempting from the installed AIR app.
The code I have is:
var originala:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath(_app);
var appX = "Presenter.app";
var copya:File = file.resolvePath(dir+appX);
originala.copyTo(copya);
_trace.add("[FILE SYSTEM] Copy of Presenter.app is Package: " + copya.isPackage + ", if false, Projector will not work!");
I originally thought it wasnt copying over the .app directory as a package, but it seems to, so that was the reason for the trace.
I've even bought a copy of CS5 to see if the issue is resolved with the AIR 2.0 RC, it's downloading now.
I have no idea why this isn't working and I am on a tight deadline.
Any one got any ideas?
Thanks.
Joe K

OK, I really need help with this...
I have included a .zip (link below) which has a small test bed AIR app including all source...
When running installed AIR app (Copy doesn't work):
isDebugger: false
playerType: Desktop
version: MAC 10,1,53,64
When previewing from .fla in Flash IDE (Copy does work):
isDebugger: true
playerType: Desktop
version: MAC 10,0,12,36
Please please please help!

[EDIT] So it looks like I just can't copy from the applicationDirectory. But I dont want to have to include extra files with the installer I wanted to include it in the installer. Is there any way for me to do this?
[EDIT 2] I have tried a extracting a .zip included in the package with FZip and ZipLib, both produce the same results, the .app doesnt work.

Importing sequence from another project, can't connect to dynamic link

I'm trying to get another sequence from another project into this one (mostly to be able to copy over a specific edit from that without remaking it) and when trying to do so, the system, as per the usual, tries to connect to the dynamic link server, but stalls on the connection screen for some time. One time it simply told me that it could not connect, and another time I got an "unspecified draw error". I'm using a PC. Any help that anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated; I've never run into this issue before, and have had to copy edits between projects multiple times.

Importing single bin from another project

Do any of the experts (or former Avid users) know how to import a single bin from another project into the current project - is this possible in CS6? Also is there anything like the dupe detection in Avid? On the subject of Speech to text (analysis) does this improve over time - i.e. is there a learning system such as in Dragon Naturally Speaking that will reduce the gibberish somewhat? Thanks

Hi Mike,
You can only import an entire Premiere Pro project, or a selected sequence, into your current PP project. If you want to import just a single Bin, you can:
Make a copy of the project you want to import, and then, in the Project window, delete all media outside the Bin you you want to keep. Now import that modified project with only 1 Bin.
Put all of your Bin's media on a new sequence, and then import just that sequence into PP. Only the media associated with that sequence will be copied into your master project.
Import your entire PP project and delete all media outside your Bin from within your master project.
No dupe detection as of yet. If you haven't already, please send Adobe a Feature Request here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&promoid=EWQQL. The more people ask this, the better the chances we'll finally get it (I miss it from FCP).
As for Speech to text, I don't use it so I don't know. Hopefully someone else will chime in.
Hope this helps. Cheers!

Paper Size issues with CreatePDF Desktop Printer

Are there any known paper size issues with PDFs created using Acrobat.com's CreatePDF Desktop Printer?
I've performed limited testing with a trial subscription, in preparation for a rollout to several clients.
Standard paper size in this country is A4, not Letter. The desktop printer was created manually on a Windows XP system following the instructions in document cpsid_86984. MS Word was then used to print a Word document to the virtual printer. Paper Size in Word's Page Setup was correctly set to A4. However the resultant PDF file was Letter size, causing the top of each page to be truncated.
I then looked at the Properties of the printer, and found that it was using an "HP Color LaserJet PS" driver (self-chosen by the printer install procedure). Its Paper Size was also set to A4. Word does override some printer driver settings, but in this case both the application and the printer were set to A4, so there should have been no issue.
On a hunch, I then changed the CreatePDF printer driver to a Xerox Phaser, as suggested in the above Adobe document for other versions of Windows. (Couldn't find the recommended "Xerox Phaser 6120 PS", so chose the 1235 PS model instead.) After confirming that it too was set for A4, I repeated the test using the same Word document. This time the result was fine.
While I seem to have solved the issue on this occasion, I have not been able to do sufficient testing with a 5-PDF trial, and wish to avoid similar problems with the future live users, all of which use Word and A4 paper. Any information or recommendations would be appreciated. Also, is there any information available on the service's sensitivity to different printer drivers used with the CreatePDF's printer definition? And can we assume that the alternative "Upload and Convert" procedure correctly selects output paper size from the settings of an uploaded document?
PS - The newly-revised doc cpsid_86984 still seems to need further revising. Vista and Windows 7 instructions have now been split. I tried the new Vista instructions on a Vista SP2 PC and found that step 6 appears to be out of place - there was no provision to enter Adobe ID and password at this stage. It appears that, as with XP and Win7, one must configure the printer after it is installed (and not just if changing the ID or password, as stated in the document).

Thank you, Rebecca.
The plot thickens a little, given that it was the same unaltered Word document that first created a letter-size PDF, but correctly created an A4-size PDF after the driver was changed from the HP Color Laser PS to a Xerox Phaser. I thought that the answer may lie in your comment that "it'll get complicated if there is a particular driver selected in the process of manually installing the PDF desktop printer". But that HP driver was not (consciously) selected - it became part of the printer definition when the manual install instructions were followed.
However I haven't yet had a chance to try a different XP system, and given that you haven't been able to reproduce the issue (thank you for trying), I will assume for the time being that it might have been a spurious problem that won't recur. I'll take your point about using the installer, though when the opportunity arises I might try to satisfy my cursed curiosity by experimenting further with the manual install. If I come up with anything of interest, I'll post again.

Issue with copy control of Delivery document to Billing document

Hi All,
I am having some issue with copy control of Delivery document to Billing document.
I am having two line items in Delivery documetn, one is for item to be delivered to customer and other which is created due to batch determination.
Now , when I create billing document (VF01) with reference to this delivery document , I want only one line item (for the one which needs to be delivered to customer).
I have used following things in copy contro from ZLF to ZF2:
Copying requirements: 004 ( Deliv-related item)
Data VBRK/VBRP: 007 "(Inv.Split (Rec/Div))
Is it correct or shall I use something else, so I have only one line item in Billing document.
Regards
Nidhi

Pls. search the forum.
Pls. refer the below link -

Issues with importing from excel

I have been running into a several issues with importing from Excel.
First my configuration
I am running SQL Developer ver 1.5.5 Build MAIN-5969
I am on a Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 3
I am importing into an Oracle 10g database.
1. SQL Developer doesn't work on Excel 2007, I have to save all my files into Excel 97-2003 format before I can use them.
2. If I run into an error loading and stop the process, SQL Developer doesn't release the Excel file and I get a sharing violation if I try to save the spreadsheet without closing SQL Developer.
3. I have found that I have to set print area to the area I want to work with, otherwise the import wizard tries to keep adding rows.
4. When using the Import wizard, it keeps adding commas on fields with numerics unless I specify the column in excel as text. Currently the column is formatted as General in the spreadsheet or I can change the wizard format to say the column is an integer, but it actually is just a code field with numeric characters so it may have leading zeroes that I need to keep.
This might be related,
I have a column in excel defined as text but only contains numerics. It is of length 4, but the wizard sets a precision of 5 with a datatype of VARCHAR2. If I try to change it to 4, I get an error saying the field is not large enough. Yet, when I do a LEN on the column, it only gives me a 4. I have other fields in the same sheet that a 3 position numeric and 2 position numeric and those are fine. I am thinking this is related to the comma being inserted in a numeric field for anything greater than 3 positions.
5. Importing excel dates to oracle dates doesn't work. I have to convert the excel date column to text then import as a VARCHAR, then convert to Date once in the database.
6. The default of nullible is not set on any columns and I have to set them before the import. (I would prefer it set to nullible and I have to uncheck the box to make it not nullible. I would prefer to import all of the data and then deal with the nulls after they have been pulled in)
7. When I select header columns included it uses that as the column names. Is it possible to do the name length check then? It has bit me a few times where I try to import and forget to check the name length and then I get an error when I start running the import.
8. If one of the columns to import has all nulls, then the precision comes out to 0 and if it isn't changed an error occurs on import. Could this situation default to a precision of 1?
9. It would be nice if there was a completion message displayed and a cancel option while running.

On point 3.
I have a column in excel that consists of numbers. 4 digit numeric codes. Ex, 1111, 2345, etc
The column's format is general. It displays as just 4 numbers.
When I start the wizard initially, the column appears with data as 1,111, 2,345, etc, on the Data Preview screen.
It determines the precision to be 5 on the column definition screen.
If I change the precision to 4 then continue, that field will error out when I verify with "not big enough to hold the data in source columns"
If, I change the excel column to a TEXT column.
Excel still displays as 1111, 2345, etc
The wizard then displays the same data 1111, 2345 on the Data Previeiw screen
Yet, when I get to the column definition screen it still sizes it as a 5
If I change it to a 4, I get the same error when verifying.
If I leave them alone as 5, then it processes just fine.

Import part of the sequence from another project

I'm working on about the fifth edit of a project and now want to move part of a sequence (about 40 clips) from one project to another. I understand I could import the entire sequence and then delete all but the portion I want, or delete all but the portion I want and then import it as the entire sequence - but this might take a while. Anyone know of a quicker way to import a portion of a sequence from one project to another. Many thanks

Thanks guys,
Would have reported back earlier but have been on other adventures. FYI, never get involved in filming medieval stuff, they're insane. But back to the project in topic, unfortunately the lasso / copy from one project to another certainly did not work in this instance. However thanks to Craig Howard @ # 1. This is probably the only method that will work in this example and even so I'll report on it's outcome later.
Thanks guys!

How to include a CSS from another project

Hi all,
I'm developing an AbstractPortalComponent which uses some of my own defined stylesheets. I can include the stylesheet defined in my own project by this:
com.sapportals.portal.prt.resource.IResource myStyle =
request.getResource("css", "css/my_nav.css");
response.include(request, myStyle);
Now I need to include another CSS but from another project.
I tried also to get the response and write the HTML code but it writes it into the <BODY></BODY> tag and the CSS is not used when rendering the document:
...</head>
<body class="prtlBody urFontBaseFam urScrl">
<LINK REL=stylesheet HREF="/irj/portalapps/myProject/css/zglobal.css" TYPE="text/css">
Does anybody know the solution?
Thanks in advance,
Romano

There are document hooks that you can use to insert things into the response of a page being written to the client.
Therefore, if you create a service which implements the IDocumentHookListener, you will then need to implement the
String doDocumentHook(int documentPosition, IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
and
void doDocumentHook(int documentPosition, IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
The first method, that returns a String, you can basically check where in the document you would like to write code, something like
switch (documentPosition) {
case IDocumentHookListener.HEAD_SECTION_BEGIN :
    return "some string";
    break;
case IDocumentHookListener.HEAD_SECTION_END :
    return "some other string";
    break;
The second method, simply writes out the String returned from the first method to the response, i.e.
response.write(doDocumentHook(documentPosition, request));
I hope this helps
Darrell

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)
