Slideshow questions - scripting and watermarking

These are 2 separate questions, so if you'd prefer I can post them separately.
1. Is it possible to create a script whereby when a slideshow is playing, the viewer can select a button and have the DVD jump to a specific spot in another slideshow? I will be creating 2 versions of the same slideshow and would like the viewer to be able to reference one from the other.
2. Is it possible to watermark or show filenames on the photos which are being played in the slideshow? I know I can probably batch process them through Photoshop but I was hoping to skip that step. I was thinking that I might be able to overlay the text as a subtitle if it were properly aligned?

Thanks for the tip. I think I can figure that part out from following the instructions in the manual. I can also get around the 99 marker limit by creating separate tracks that end jump to each other.
Is there a way, though, to show the filenames on the photos? I know that I could create a subtitle track to overlay it, but I'd be using the subtitle track for the button to jump to the other track.
Should I batch process them in CS4 to overlay the filenames instead? Not that I know how to do that yet.

Hi... I am looking for an inexpensive app for my macbook pro that I can put pictures and videos together into a slideshow with captions and music WITHOUT a watermark and that also will burn the slideshow to a DVD in its own app. Help?

The issue with the A1400 is that like most economy compact cameras, they will not have very fast focus times in indoor lighting situations. Many people have gone to entry level DSLR's (Canon T3i) or micro 4/3 cameras. They are fairly expensive, but a late model refurbished T3i can sometimes be found with a kit lens for about $300.00. With Auto and scene modes, as well as full manual modes, these are very versatile cameras that focus very quickly, even in lower lighting situations. Canon is not really into the micro 4/3 cameras, instead they are focusing on the new G7x and G1x cameras, which are way out of your price range. The A720 is still available used at some places such as KEH camera, but you'll need to check often as their stock changes constantly. Obviously the DSLR's don't use AA batteries, but the T3i is good for about 600 photos (or more) per charge.
My refurbished DSLR was practically brand new condition when I got it. I could not find any sign of wear at all, so I feel they are a real bargain. These are rugged cameras that are made to last. The A1400 is a $99.00 camera, so it's not intended for heavy usage, plus the image quality of a DSLR (even entry level) is far better than the A1400. That would be my recommendation.

Beginner's question about scripting and deployment automation

I am new to the SAP and BusinessObjects world. I do production support for BusinessObjects XI R3.1. One of my functions is to deploy Universe.unv and WEBI Report files from development into QA and production. This is currently a manual process involving downloading files and lots of key strokes and mouse clicks using the BusinessObjects Client Tools. My question ->: is there a way to automate this process? Can I do this with the SAP scripting wizard? I am familiar with many different scripting and programming languages, I just need to be pointed in the right direction.
Thanks for your help!

Downloading 4.0 onto XP it takes a long conection process, with boxes on unresponsive script and a java scipt app saying type error and is all very annoying so what can I do I want the old firefox back a

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 replacing an earlier Firefox version. I have XP on my computer. When I now click on the Firefox icon after a time a window saying Unresponsive script and underneath script chrome etc comes up. I then press stop script and another window comes up Java Script application and type error. Eventually I get on to the internet but it's all very frustrating. I wish I had ignored the request to download 4.0
Please help

I can assure you that the sympton is indeed identical. For as the computer got worse, eventually it refused to start up and made 3 beeps. It has done this before, but today more times than before (just like when it first had this problem). Where-ever you go on the internet, it will tell you that the 3 beeps suggest the RAM is at fault. So, the same 3 beeps, means the same problem, which is the RAM.
With that in mind, I re-ask my question with the same reasoning and justification; am I still covered under warranty? (Reasoning/Justification: Considering the original problem was not entirely fixed, though something else was to make the MacBook Pro last a little longer before the reoccurance of this problem).

Question
When trying to create a desktop icon, it does not go to the URL.....instead I get 'script' and not a website......the script has http//etc but I am not directed to the website......I previously had IE 8 (on Vista).....is that the problem?I do not have any installed plugins....at least none that I know of.....remember I am a new user......Basically, the desktop icon is not going directly to the Mozilla FF to get me to the web site I need to go to.....FF works when I use the Mozilla FF icon.....just not the icons I create.....THANKS!!! I have also tried reinstalling FF and get the same results.....HELP!!!

The address beginning with file:/// denotes a saved file (local file). The file may not be present. You can try dragging the site icon of this page on the left edge of the location (Address) bar and release it on the desktop. Please try opening it. If it still shows an error it could be a problem with the system's zone permissions. You can try setting each zone in the Windows Control Panel or IE > '''Internet Options''' > '''Security''' tab to '''Default Level'''.

How to create a barcode in scripts and smartforms

hi
how to create a barcode in scripts and smartforms

Hi,
For Script:
A barcode solution consists of the following:
- a barcode printer
- a barcode reader
- a mobile data collection application/program
A barcode label is a special symbology to represent human readable information such as a material number or batch number
in machine readable format.
There are different symbologies for different applications and different industries. Luckily, you need not worry to much about that as the logistics supply chain has mostly standardized on 3 of 9 and 128 barcode symbologies - which all barcode readers support and which SAP support natively in it's printing protocols.
You can print barcodes from SAP by modifying an existing output form.
Behind every output form is a print program that collects all the data and then pass it to the form. The form contains the layout as well as the font, line and paragraph formats. These forms are designed using SAPScript (a very easy but frustratingly simplistic form format language) or SmartForms that is more of a graphical form design tool.
Barcodes are nothing more than a font definition and is part of the style sheet associated with a particular SAPScript form. The most important aspect is to place a parameter in the line of the form that points to the data element that you want to represent as barcode on the form, i.e. material number. Next you need to set the font for that parameter value to one of the supported barcode symbologies.
The next part of the equation can be a bit tricky as you will need to get a printer to print that barcode font. Regular laser printers does not normally print barcode fonts, only specialized industrial printers that is specifically designed to support that protocol and that uses specialized label media and heat transfer (resin) ribbon to create the sharp image required for barcodes.
Not to fear though, there are two ways to get around this:
- You can have your IT department do some research -
most laser printers can accept a font cartridge/dimm chip (similar to computer memory), called a BarDIMM that will allow a laser printer to support the printing of barcodes.
- Secondly, you can buy software that you can upload in your SAP print Server that will convert the barcode symbology as an image that will print on a regular laser printer. I found that this option results in less sharper barcodes. This option is really if you need to convert a large quantity of printers (>10) to support barcodes.
- Thirdly, you can buy a third party software like Barcode.dll and install on your frontend PC connected to the laser printer.
Now you have a barcode printed - what next?
Well there are two options, depending on your business requirements:
- You can use an existing SAP transaction on a regular workstation and get a barcode wedge reader to hook up between the keyboard and the PC. These wedge readers comes in a wand or scanner format. There are even wireless wedge scanners available that allows you to roam a few yards from the workstation to scan a label. This approach is mostly used where you want to prevent human errors in typing in long material, batch or serial numbers in receiving or issuing of material. The problem is that it's just replacing the keyboard input and you are basically locked down in one location and have to bring all the material to that location to process.
- Another solution is to use SAPConsole transactions
or write your own ABAP Dialog programs that will fit onto a barcode enabled wireless handheld terminal and that will follow the business logic as executed on the shop floor.
These programs are highly complex exercises in industrial engineering and ergonomics because of the limited screen sizes and limited ability to accept keyboard input. The user is instructed step-by-step and only scan and push F-keys to interact with the SAP system. Scan, scan, beep, beep, enter - highly automated.

Can a Button call a java script and then proceed with the creation

Hi all,
I have a simple APEX form on a table,
with simple function as create and apply changes,
some items of the form are computed by a "Computation"
I need the create button to show the computed values, before move to the next page, then proceed with the creation ( submission)
I have tried to show the values by a java script, but after clicking the button OK of the javascript msg, no submission performed ,
details:
the java script is called in the URL of the Button,
it only contains a alert statement
is there a way to let the button do that
or may be the case could be solved by another idea!!!
rgrds,

Hi Varad,
It is Before header of course. I forgot to mention this.
Yes, you are right Varad, I have read again the question and seems original request was to show Computation that is done in After Submit, more javascript is required of course.
One possibility is to create On Demand process called COMPUTEITEM where you compute your item, and in the end of on demand process it prints it
htp.p(:P1_X)
Then put in HTML header of your page
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function setShowItemSub(pThis){
   var l_This   = $x(pThis);
   var ajaxRequest = new htmldb_Get(null, $v('pFlowId'), 'APPLICATION_PROCESS=COMPUTEITEM', $v('pFlowStepId'));
   ajaxRequest.add($x(l_This).id, $v(l_This));
   var gReturn = ajaxRequest.get();
   alert(gReturn);
   ajaxRequest = null;
doSubmit('aa');
</script>And in Button URL textarea put:
javascript:setShowItemSub('P1_X');
Then no need in After Submit process anymore
I have put this now in http://apex6.revion.com/pls/apex/f?p=225:1
COMPUTEITEM On demand process is :
:P1_X := :P1_X || ' Added this trail';
htp.p(:P1_X);Of course, all this should be modified accordingly

This is a user to user support forum. We are all iphone users just like you.
You are not addressing Apple here at all.
This is an odd way to ask your fellow iphone users for help. Berating oterh users will not help you.
"it's too fragile"
No it is not. i have never damaged one, nor has anyone I know.
" U loose data when Ur phone is locked"
No you don't. Why do you think this?
"and there is no customer support!!! "
Wrong yet again. Apple has an 800 number and they have many retail stores and they have support articles that you can access using the search bar. Or you can contact them throgh express lane online
"but I will go back with Blackberry "
Please do.
Good ridance

Passing params from SQL file to Shell Script and then from Shell to SQL Fil

Afternoon guys,
Have a fun question for all you gurus in shell scripting out there. I have a shell script that is calling 2
different SQL programs. My objective is to pass a variable called request_number from one sql program
to the shell script and then from the shell script back to another SQL program. I will explain why I
need this to happen.
Here is what the shell script looks like which calls sql programs student_load_a.sql and
student_load_b.sql. Student_load_a.sql basically creates the control file (.ctl) which is needed for the
SQL*Loader and then student_load_b.sql reads the table that was just loaded and does the main
processing. My main objective here is to be passing the request_number which is being generated
using an Oracle Sequence in student_load_a.sql and using this generated number in my main
processing in student_load_b.sql to select records from the table based on request_number.
Any ideas ?Any help or recommendations is welcome and appreciated.
*1. Shell Script*
# Accept system input parameters
p_user_id=$1
p_job_id=$2
# Create control files for sqlload
sqlplus.exe -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_a.sql $p_job_id
exit_status=$?
# Do sqlloads
sdesqlldr.exe userid=$p_user_id control=student_load-$p_job_id.ctl \
                                             log=student_load-$p_job_id.log \
                                             bad=student_load-$p_job_id.bad
exit_status=$?
# Main processing
# sqlplus.exe -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql $p_user_id $p_job_id $p_request_number
sqlplus.exe -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql $p_user_id $p_job_id

trailing nullcols
(request_number CONSTANT ' || '''' || request_number_seq.nextval || ''',
student_id)'
from   dual
spool off;
exit 0;

*3. student_load_b.sql (This is a big file so I am only adding code that is relevant for the SQL)*
{code}

v_request_number    number(6);
v_student_id                  number(7);
cursor cur_student_load is
    select student_id
    from   TMP_STUDENT_LOAD
    where request_number = v_request_number
    order by 1;
begin
    v_user_id := '&1';
    v_job_id := &2;
    -- This is the variable I would like to be be passing from shell script to student_load_b.sql
    -- v_request_number = '&3';
     open cur_student_load;
     fetch cur_student_load into v_student_id;
      exit when cur_student_load%notfound;
      .... more logic of if then else in here
     close cur_student_load;
end;
{code}

How come you are mixing WinDoze script (*.exe) with Unix?
You are aware that you will be passing the password along with the user id to the second sql script?
I will assume Unix ksh:
# Accept system input parameters
p_user_id=$1
p_job_id=$2
# Create control files for sqlload
p_seqno=`sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_a.sql $p_job_id`
exit_status=$?
# Do sqlloads
sqlldr userid=$p_user_id control=student_load-$p_job_id.ctl \
       log=student_load-$p_job_id.log \
       bad=student_load-$p_job_id.bad
exit_status=$?
# Main processing
# sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql $p_user_id $p_job_id $p_request_number
sqlplus -s $p_user_id @$STUDENT_PATH/student_load_b.sql \
           $p_user_id $p_job_id $p_seqno
exit_status=$?
exit 0And the first sql script would look like this:
-- student_load_a.sql
-- Accept system input parameters
set echo off pages 0 feed off lin 80 trims on ver off
def p_job_id = &1
col seqno NEW_VALUE seqno
select request_number_seq.nextval seqno from dual;
set term off
spool student_load-$p_job_id.ctl
select
'append into table TMP_STUDENT_LOAD
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '','' optionally enclosed by ''"''
trailing nullcols
(request_number CONSTANT ''&&seqno'',
student_id)'
from   dual
spool off;
exit 0;
{code}

UCCX script and abandoned calls

Hi Guys
I got question about that UCCX script and abandoned calls , so currently we had 4 different script for support the call follow .
So the Main script is just AA let the people select menu 1 , 2 ,3 then go to different queue , after select 1 (for example) then call-direct to second script trigger number and coming into the queue .
Unfortunately , the system counter the action to be an Abandoned call , I already open the case about this issue and the TAC did not found any configure issue on UCCX , from the log we can seem all the REDIRECT,lrd=5000 is abandoned call .

Hi Jon
I was tested "Set Call Contact Info step to mark the call as handled" last night , but not working .

How to find the system default scripts and prompts in UCCX 8.0

Hello everyone,
I have a bit of experience in UCCX 6.0 and just began to use UCCX 8.0. There's a question that where can I find the system default scripts and prompts in 8.0? In 6.0, I can find them in installing directory, but 8.0 is linux based so I can not do that in same way.
Thanks.

You can Login to CLI with either root access or remote user access and get default scripts by going to
CD /opt/cisco/uccx/Scripts/system/default
At this point you have to connect to ftp server and move these default script to yoru FTP server.
I hope this helps

IE 11 Restricting Running Scripts and ActiveX Controls on Local Files

How to create borders and watermarks in the new photos app?

In iPhoto we could create borders and watermarks amongst other features when going to the Export Option under File.
Does anyone know if/how we can do both in the new Photos App?
If not, what's the next best option for creating borders and watermarks, and does Photos support plug ins?
This is my first question of what Im guessing will be a series in getting to know and utilize Apples forceful technology.

You're not missing anything. You're correct in your finding that adding/modifying location data in the new Photos application has been removed.
With that said, in a proactive manor you can submit feedback (do it at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html since there is no section for Photos yet) and request that location modification be added. The more people who do it, the more likely it is to be added.
