[SOLVED]Setting the default monitor in Gnome3

I have an external monitor connected to my laptop and I want it to be the default screen (to contain the panel, notifications etc.). I've solved this by adding the command:
xrandr --output VGA-0 --primary
to the gnome startup applications. This works but I'm curious is there some other, more elegant way of solving this, maybe through X server configuration or something??
Thanks in advance.

in the gnome display settings, you can drag the panel to the monitor of your liking, that setting will stick.

    Hi,
    The problem exists in my project still exist.That is it.
    When I did not set weblogic.jsp.encoding to GB2312 in my web
    application(web.xml), and when the jsp file contain's chinese , the
    output
    will be error(error chinese) .And when I did not set it , the output
    is
    correct, but when I use request.getParameter("SomeFormElement")(theelement
    inputed chinese), the return value is error(still chinese error).And
    when
    I
    am in windows nt english version and do not set this property, all
    these
    two
    problems dispear. And I try to compare the java files those were
    generated
    by weblogic from the jsp file , there is only two additional clause
    in
    the
    java file. That's it:
    ((weblogic.servlet.jsp.JspWriterImpl)out).setEncoding("GB2312");
    response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=GB2312");
    (the web.xml has <context-param>
    <param-name>weblogic.jsp.encoding</param-name>
    <param-value>GB2312</param-value>
    </context-param> to be set
    So, I think maybe it works well if I change the default locale toenglish.
    And unfortunately, your method is also failed.(I have to use weblogic

    Would you please help me to solve this problem?

  • How do I set the default x-axis scale in DIAdem View?

    Hi everyone:
    I look at large amounts of data (i.e. many different data files every day), and I am trying to load and view them quickly and efficiently. Currently, when I have data sets loaded in the "Structure" tab, and I click and drag a numeric channel over to the 2-D plot, DIAdam automatically scales the x-axis from 0 to 60, when the numeric channels can be anywhere from 50 000 to 100 000 entries long. I now use the roller on my mouse to zoom out for five minutes before seeing the entire data set. My question is is there a way to re-set the default x-axis scaling so I do not have to zoom out each time I plot a numeric channel?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello Peter!,
    The DIAdem VIEW windows will always auto-scale to the full range of the values on the X-axis when you drag data into a new window.
    You have several options on how to quickly get to the range of data you wish to see.
    Right click on the LEFT edge of the data you wish to zoom into, HOLD the mouse right mouse button and DRAG the mouse to the right side of the section you wish to zoom into. DIAdem will automatically show the section you have selected in a zoomed view in that same window
    Result:
    Alternatively, you can double click on the VIEW window and check the "Manual X-Scaling" box and then enter the exact values you wish to zoom into
    Also, you could use the Band Cursor from the toolbar, move and resize the Band in the VIEW window and then use the "Scroll in Cursor Range" icon to zoom into the area of the curve you are interested in.
    These are just a few ways you should be able to accomplish what you have described in your post.
    Let us know if you have additional questions ...

  • How to set the default values for print options

    Hi all,
    We can set the default value for print options, just like Logical destination、numbers of messages、print immediately and so on, so where we should to maintain these default?

    Hi Sandy,
    This can be done by an abaper by making changes in the driver program. The Driver program feeds all the data which u have mentioned for printing.
    if the driver program is standard. copy to an z type and make modification on printer settings on the driver program code.
    this will surely solve the issue.

  • How to set the default SASL auth mech

    Does any body know how I can set the default SASL auth mechanism? I can currentlly authenticate to slapd only when requesting manualy CRAM-MD5 and I would very much like to set that as the default. In a non-macosx server environment creating a
    /usr/lib/sasl2/[service_name].conf
    file and putting in
    'mech_list: CRAM-MD5'
    solves the issue, but on macos x server it doesnt really help. I'm not sure if this is the correct file at all.

    My ultimate goal is to have a shared conact list in our OD database. I want to be able to give Joe User a friendly interface to insert update and use this contact list. 2 solutions I found are j2anywhere.com's AddressBookXLDAP and the open source package phpLDAPadmin (far more complicated, but OK). Both won't work on my particular setup and I'm trying to figure out why. You helped me figure out how to authenticate (this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=894046&tstart=0). My guess is, if I use the same settings for ABXLdap thinks will start working. I don't have no way to set the -Y CRAM-MD5 option on the application level, so I'm looking for a way to set it golobally, on the server level.

  • System keeps re-setting the default app to Preview for iWork files.

    Hello.
    I've scoured the internet for a solution to this problem, but can't find one.  The problem applies to Numbers, Pages and Keynote, and I am putting this post in the forum for each.  I shall explain it using a Numbers file as an example.
    For three or four years, I've had a file that was created in Numbers to be opened in Numbers; it's a spreadsheet that I update with every transaction of my bank account.
    Until about a week ago, the file would always open in Numbers, its default application, and then the file kept opening in Preview instead of in Numbers.  I checked the 'Get Info' panel and found that its default application was Preview.  This was strange, so I changed it to Numbers.  When I opened the file the next day, it again opened in Preview, and I found again that Preview was set as its default app.  This time, I set Numbers as the default app by right-clicking on the file, selecting 'Open With', and Numbers wasn't on the list, so I went to 'Other...', and in the 'Choose Application' window, navigated to the Numbers app, selected it and activated the 'Always Open With' option.
    As you would expect, the file then opens in Numbers.  However, whenever the computer has been off and I have logged in again, the default app for the file has reverted to Preview.
    The only thing I can think of that might have a bearing on this problem is a recent App Store purchase.  I bought Numbers on an iWork '09 disk back in 2008/9, but about a week ago decided to uninstall the iWork apps with AppZapper and buy them from the App Store (I just like to have the App Store as the source of my apps, and I had some money to spare).  I can’t see why this would cause the problem, but the installation of these apps and the start of the problem seem to co-incide.
    I wondered if the problem could be solved by re-creating my spreadsheet in a new Numbers file, so I opened Numbers, selected a blank worksheet and pasted the spreadsheet from the original file into this new one, but it made no difference: the next time I logged into my system, Preview was the default app for the new file as well.  The problem persists even with new files created in Numbers, Pages or Keynote that are unconnected with older files and after the App Store purchases.
    I would be grateful for any advice the community can offer.
    Thank you.

    Hello again.
    I followed your advice and created another user account, and in that one, Numbers, not Preview, was the default app for my Numbers file.  Logging back into my original account, I deleted the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist file, and for good measure, the com.apple.LaunchServices.plist.lockfile as well, and reset Numbers as the default app for my Numbers file.
    I restarted the system, but found that Preview was now the default app for the file.  Perhaps the .plist file needed a second restarting of the system, so I set the default app for the file to Numbers again.  I also put Pages, Numbers and Keynote into a new folder called iWork '09, as they used to be before I replaced my shop-bought iWork disk installations with the same apps bought form the App Store.  I don't know if this made a difference.  I restarted the system and, this time, the default app was Numbers.
    Pages and Keynote are also now the default apps for files created by them.
    You have been very helpful and I appreciate it.  Thank you.

    Hi @darshan9 ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues setting the default printer for users and you are unable to print over the network.
    I would be happy to help you.
    Do you mean individual computers setup with the printer over the network users or one computer with multiple users?
    Do you have Admin Rights on the computer to make changes?
    What is the full name and product number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
    I would suggest you to check if you have a different user account or from an administration account.
    I would also suggest you to create a new user account and check if you are able to set the printer as default.
    Create a user account. Create a user account.
    If you are still having issues run the Fixit Tool. Diagnose and fix printer and printing problems automatically.
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

    The radio button “Service” should not be visible.
    Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
    How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
    We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
    Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
    We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
    Kindly help out me ASAP.

    The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
    Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
    In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
    On the next line enter the default value within this range.  At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D".  This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
    If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
    Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record.  You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

    You cannot. Because this option both takes much longer and reduces the quality of files, it has to be chosen specifically.

  • How do I set the default welcome page for PUBLIC user

    gurus,
    i'm using -
    Oracle 9i Database
    Oracle 9ias Portal Release 2
    QUESTION => how do I set the default welcome page for the PUBLIC user.
    i did the following to achieve this -
    1. logged into portal
    2. clicked on builder
    3. clicked on administer tab
    4. selected PUBLIC user in the Portal User Profile portlet
    5. went to the preferences tab
    6. in the default home page selected a custom page group
    7. logged out of portal
    8. open a new browsere session
    9. type the portal URL and i get the login page ....??
    i'm unable to understand this behavior ... shouldn't i be getting the page group that i set for the PUBLIC user in step 6 above ....
    the second QUESTION is => when the user logs out he/she should see the PUBLIC page set in step 6 above ... but, instead the user sees a page that is as follows -
    Partner Application Name Logout Status [Logout Status]
    Oracle Portal (portal) logout status
    The SSO Server (orasso) checkmark
    buzz.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark

    thanx a bunch.

    Hi,
    The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
    Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
    Hope it clarifies the things.

  • How do I set the default Hero image in a Muse slideshow widget when using Free Form Thumbnails?

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out how to set the default Hero image when using a Muse slideshow widget and in the Layout section I have the "Free Form Thumbnails"
    box checked.
    In other words, when the page loads I want to define which image displays as the first Hero image.
    If I do not select the "Free Form Thumbnails" option, the top left Thumbnail image always displays first. This is fine.
    But when I select the Free Form Thumbnails" checkbox I don't know how to define which image shows first as the Hero image.
    I have a short video at this link where I illustrate the question:
    http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.mp4
    I have added a WMV video file at the link below:
    http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.wmv
    Okay… I think I've worked out how to do it!
    [1] First have the "Free Form Thumbnails" box UNCHECKED.
    [2] Organize the Thumbnails and place the image that you want to be the first Hero image when the page loads in the top left corner of the Thumbnails group.
    [3] When you "Preview Site In Browser" the Thumbnail image in the top left corner will always display as the first Hero image.
    [4] If you want "Free Form Thumbnails" go ahead now and SELECT that checkbox.
    [5] Whichever image was in the top left of the Thumbnail group before you checked "Free Form Thumbnails" will still show up as the first Hero image when the page loads, regardless of where that thumbnail image is located within the Thumbnail images group.
    Thanks very much.
    Chris.

    Is there a way to set the default level to 100%, so that I can just select "Easy Ease In" and have it apply without having to go into the graph editor?  It would save a lot of time.

  • How can I set the default line height?

    Greetings,
    I have a report that displays observed behavior in a list format like the one below:
    Behavior Observed:   
        Withdrawn           
        Happy
        Sad
        angry
    There are 5 responses as to the severity of the behavior or it is left blank if the behavior was within normal limits.
    So the output would look like this:  
    Behavior Observed:   
        Withdrawn            (mild)
        Happy
        Sad                      (moderate)
        angry
    The problem is that when this report was designed the details sections were not uniformy formatted and the spacing between data elements is hard to follow from the label to the data field.  I tried to set the details to be uniform by selecting "Arrange Lines",  however when I do this, the data is displayed too close horizontally.  So my question is how do I set the default line height for each field so that they are uniform in distance from each other but not too close due to the font height?
    Does this make sense?
    Thank you,
    Kevin

    I'm confused... How are you associating line height with horizontal field spacing???
    If you have this...
    Behavior Observed:     Severity:
    Withdrawn          (mild)
    Happy
    Sad               (moderate)
    angry
    But want it to look like this...
    Behavior Observed:
    Withdrawn (mild)
    Happy
    Sad (moderate)
    angry
    all you have to do is create a concatenation formula. Something like this...
    {TableName.BehaviorObserved} & " (" & {TableName.Severity} &")"
    Sorry if I've misunderstood what you are trying to do.

    Can anyone advise where can i set the default value,

    if you want some default value in LOV. you go to edit list of value wizard-> UI hint->include no selection Item checkbox -checked.use labeled item first of list- and beside that put the label. but when you try to get value, it will show null.but you can manipulate in ur java , if it default value
