[Solved] VIFM Panel Question

I recently switched from XFE to VIFM file manager. I really like VIFM but I'm one missing command that I used in XFE. In XFE, I would use the shortcut cntl-y which will make the second panel switch to the same directory as the primary panel. I use this often when working with network drives. Prevents me from having to move through the directory trees. I've looked through the documentation but was unable to find this function.

Challenging question! (Does anyone how to solve this Javabat question?)

Does anyone how to solve this Javabat question?
Here is the link:
http://www.javabat.com/prob?id=Array3.linearIn

I'm a little surprised by the implied rating of this problem... it's a plain to-way merge. You can use the same template as for the merging step in merge sort:
public boolean linearIn(int[] outer, int[] inner) {
int i = 0;
int j = 0;
while (i < outer.length || j < inner.length) {
if (j < inner.length && (i == outer.length || inner[j] < outer)) {
// inner[j] smallest
return false;
else if (i < outer.length && (j == inner.length || outer[i] < inner[j])) {
// outer[i] smallest
i++;
else {
// inner[j] == outer[i]
i++; j++;
return true;

(SOLVED) Two KDE Questions

1. How do you enable spell check in Kopete? It does not seem to want to check my spelling after I click the spell button or right click and select auto spell check. I checked my system and I do have aspell installed.
2. How do I get a volume applet on the panel? I have used Kubuntu in the past and there was always a little speaker in the system tray section. This is not present with the current full KDE package which I have installed. How do I add it?
Thank you so much for your help!
Question 2 has been solved. Just start Kmix

i checked and i did not have the en package. thank you for that tip! the spelling in kopete will still not work however.

CLD Front Panel Question

I understand that the front panel is now provided to you for the CLD. Is the provided front panel fully functional, or does it require modification?
For example, do properties such as mechanical action and boolean text require modification on the test taker's part, or is the front panel fully functional?
I can't imagine these things taking very much time, but it is good to know what to expect going in.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

The folder hierarchy provided to you for developing your solution consists of the (named) main VI, input file (where applicable), Controls and SubVIs folders.
Main VI: This includes the front panel with the corresponding terminals on the block diagram. Where front panel objects are grouped and typed defined, the .ctl file will be provided in the Controls folder. Some functionality may be provided with the controls (for example: Data Entry limits), but it is the developer’s responsibility to check and modify to the needs of their solution. For the main VI, you must customize the following:
Icon: Customize the icon. Recommendation: Use simple icons: Example: . Avoid developing fancy, graphical icons
VI Documentation: Briefly describe the VI in the VI Documentation. See following example.
Description and Tip: Provide either a very brief Tip strip or Description for Main VI objects. Example: “Withdraw funds”, “Check Balance”, “Stop Application”

[solved] xfce4-panel plugins keep crashing after update

I've been having problems with xfce4-panel after some recent updates. Several plugins for it, like the Action Buttons, CPU graph and Notification Area keep crashing right after being added to the panel. The error message isn't very helpful, just saying the plugin in question "unexpectedly left the panel". Any ideas on how to debug this?
Last edited by vox.cogitatio (2012-06-12 15:36:38)

I found the problem. I was running the panel without the rest of xfce4. I thought this was doable, but apparently some applets assume you have the base packages of xfce4 installed, as the problems ceased when I installed them.

[SOLVED] XFCE Panel Icons

Does anyone know why my panel icons are black?
Like such: http://i.imgur.com/rhaLd.png
I haven't migrated from any other DE, this started happening after I enabled Compiz on startup(https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … icon.22.29).
Any ideas on how to set them to white, or use the icon set from the Xubuntu panel?
Thanks in advance.
SOLVED: Elementary Xubuntu icon theme installed, needed to specify "Elementary Xubuntu Dark" vs "Elementary Xubuntu".

You can't actually move stuff freely in XFCE panels; moving only changes the order of things. You have to use separators (which can be invisible and have the option to expand) to get stuff in particular places. I have eight invisible separators on my panel, and the 'Window Buttons' item expands to fill all free space, allowing me to place things on the 'end' of my panel.

Spry tabbed panels - question about hover

Hello, I am relatively new to Dreamweaver and Spry, but have made a website using vertical Tabbed Panels that finally looks ALMOST like I want it. I am sure that I have done some things that could be much simpler though…
http://web.me.com/marinka9170/JL_test/JL_test.html
My problem is that I would like the tabs to stay in their hover state (so coloured and wider) when you navigate to the content panel (until you hover over the next tab of course), instead of going back to their standard grey. How do I do that?
And my other question is: in the content panels I have used custom bullets. Is there a way to assign a different custom bullet for each content panel? Do I number the content panels, like I have done with the tabs?
Any hints, tips, solutions are appreciated!
Thanks,
Marinka

I indeed see that your example works, but I think in my code there is some sort of conflict going on
I have copied the Source Code and the SpryTabbedPanels.ccs below and 'bolded' the parts where I think the problem is. It is probably in splitting the different tabs in 5, right?
I am sorry for asking these stupid questions. It's all quite new to me, but I've ordered a book to study more. It's just not in yet
Thanks again for your help! Really appreciate it!
Marinka

Sliding Panels Question

Hi there. I'm new to Spry, and I'm using 1.6.1 in Dreamweaver CS3. I want to create sliding panels to showcase some work I've done, but I wanted to know if it's possible to build a scroll function for one panel which will have multiple pieces of work (not a scrollbar).
There's not enough horizontal real estate to show all the work in this particular panel at once, so I want to put a "continue" or "next" and a "previous" button/function on that panel so the user can automatically view differents areas of the panel to see the rest of the related work, without creating a number of different panels for all this.
Is this possible in the sliding panels widget, or is there just one pass per panel? I hope my question is clear.
I'm trying to decide whether to build this in Spry or Flash.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I dug around a bit more and saw an example that shows me that I can do this. Thanks anyway!

Form Guide - Nested Optional Panels questions translations

Hi!
I'm developping a multi language form guide. Thanks to the Paul's workaround, I'm able to translate the field caption. But I cannot find a solution to translate the questions/answers in nested optional panels. Does somebody know a way to do that?
Thank you

Panel-questions + panel-poll

I would like to have custom gnome-menus in the gnome-panel (like the gnome-menubar shows applications, places,...). This is easy to do with the xfce-panel (uses xml-menufiles) but I would rather like the gnome-panel. I googeled some but couldn't find anything usefull...
Another question: is it possible to give the xfce-panel a bg?

[SOLVED] xmonad + panel logging applets

Until recently I used xmonad-log-applet, but after the last update, xmonad is unable to connect to dbus. I get the following error:
xmonad-x86_64-linux: D-Bus Error (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply): Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
As this is quite a generic message, google wasn't of much help. and I know practically nothing about dbus, so I do not to know where to start looking for the problem. As an alternative I also tried this, which seems to take a simpler approach. But when I try to load it into my (xfce) panel (via XfApplet) I get this message:
An internal error occurred and the applet could not be loaded.
which is also quite informative... Starting a "real" gnome panel also doesn't help. Here I have the suspicion of some missing dependencies, although the program compiles just fine.
Does anyone have some clues?

I deserve a big facepalm! For the gnome-socket-applet I didn't export the GNOME_SOCKET_APPLET_PORT variable, so the program didn't start. I should have RTFM in more detail. But the socket-applet works at my computer at home, but not on the one at work
I will mark this topic as solved, as I can use the dbus solution at work and the socket solution at home, but I am still intrigued why the difference arises. If I find the time, I will try to port the gnome-socket-applet to a native xfce panel applet and hopefully it will be more stable.
BTW I uploaded a PKGBUILD for gnome-socket-applet

Simple collapsible panels question...

(Thought I'd give this forum a try. The other discussion
category gets no traffic! It seems this is where the action is.)
I'm putting collapsible panels on the left side of web page
to be used as a sort of menu list that links to the rest of the
website. Some "tab" sections will have stuff in its associated
"content" section, namely some text that will link to other parts
of the website. Other "tab" sections will have nothing in its
"content" section, but I want to use the text in these tabs to be a
link. In other words, I have no use of the content section for
these tabs. I did a quick test and made the text in a tab to link
to another page, but it didn't do anything (though the "content"
section links of other tabs worked fine). Should I simply delete
this part: <div class="CollapsiblePanelContent"></div>
Here's an example of the web page, though it is still very
much under construction, and no links put in place yet in any of
the "tab" sections of the collapsible panels:
http://www.freywine.com/NewSiteExamples/index4.html
(I just want you to see how I'm using the collapsible panels, and
how the "Home" and "Order Here," for example, will have no text in
their "content" sections of the collapsible panels. Naturally, the
parts with the downward pointing triangle will have text with links
in their "content" sections.)
Basically, the question is: what's the best way to have the
tab section be just a link and the content section to not be there
at all. I suppose I could simply not use collapsible panel code,
but then I would have to figure out how to fit a non-collapsible
panel div to fit right snug between all the collapsible panels (I'm
still very much a newbie with CSS).
Any simple way to deal with this?
I've attached the complete collapsible panel code for the one
which has the tab text as a link and nothing in the content area.
Thanks for the help!
<div id="CollapsiblePanel2" class="CollapsiblePanel">
<div class="CollapsiblePanelTab" tabindex="0"><a
href="
http://freywine.stores.yahoo.net/">Order
Here</a></div>
<div class="CollapsiblePanelContent"></div>
</div>

Youre on the right lines. Just rip all of the collapsible
stuff out
which surrounds the actual link, as shown in the code below.
The code shows the 'Home' and the 'Order Here' <divs>
as your code
should be, plus the opening collapsible <div> of the
'Wine' tab.
Note the 'combined' css classes 'CollapsiblePaneltab' and
'CollapsiblePanel'(leave a gap between them as shown) The
reason for
this is the brown bar to the left of the tab takes its
properties from
the 'CollapsiblePanelTab' css PLUS you need to add some
inline left
padding to get the link to line up under one another.
<div id="sidebar1">
<div class="CollapsiblePanelTab CollapsiblePanel"
style="padding-left: 7px"><a href="
http://www.bbc.co.uk">Home</a></div>
<div class="CollapsiblePanelTab CollapsiblePanel"
style="padding-left: 7px"><a href="
http://www.bbc.co.uk">Order
Here</a></div>
<div id="CollapsiblePanel3" class="CollapsiblePanel">

Director 11 Panels Question

I, as a user coming from Director MX 2004, am used to having
the score and cast panels docked together.
I have downloaded the new version and I am not able to do
that. Has that been removed?
And any reccomendations on how to use the panels?
Side question - I am looking into taking courses on Director,
or getting books.
Which books are reccomended?
Also, around how much money does a Director
proogrammer/designer (you get the idea) make?
Thanks!!

this issue has angered me too. there's absolutely no way i'm
going to buy this upgrade until issues like this - and the lack of
AS3 support!! - have been resolved.
Books for director mx 2004:
Lingo in a nutshell (essential, although based on v6, still
relevant now)
director mx2004 bible (or the visual quickstart book, they're
both very similar)
HIGHLY recommended is the Lynda.com video tutorials.
lastly - the amount of money you can make varies
ridiculously. what would you expect to develop? think about the end
product!
Don't put all your eggs in one basket - i would suggest
learning flash, html and css too.

Overlapping Windows and Panels Question

Hi, I have photoshop cs5 for the mac and I want to display 2 images of my project. I did this buy going to window>arrange>New Window For "project name" I want to be able to see one zoomed out and just have it displaying in the top corner. I position this new window on the top of my screen, but when I click on my "main" window, the new one just goes behind it and disappears.
My question is can I have my "main working window" tabbed in photoshop, while I have the smaller zoomed out duplicate window floating on top of it?
I would like for the smaller window to always be on top of my "main" working window of my project even while I have the "main" window selected. Is this possible on the mac version?
To solve this, I can make both of them floating windows and position them so that they do not overlap, but this takes up a lot of room on the screen.
I hope this description makes sense. Thanks in advance.

I have application frame turned on and it does not work. The navigator is ok, but its too small and you cannot edit in it like you can in another copy of the project.
I have seen photoshop work in the way I describe, but it was on Windows. Could this just not be possible with the mac os?
Thanks for the quick replies

Kinks Panel Question Mark

In the links panel I'm getting a question mark on the right hand side.
I've tried to relink, but ? marks still there. I've deleated the file, but as soon as I place
it back the ? mark returns.
I created a new page and place the file, but the ? mark is still there.
Everytime I open this file it asked me to "repair, replace, ignore or cancel."
I'm using CS4 on a Mac Pro.
How do I get this file to stay linked?
Thanks
HJMann

153 Views. Not bad for a typo. Now I know how to get people's attention.
Figured out what's happening.
I imported the files from a hard drive on another Mac connected to the Mac Pro.
I think somehow Illustrator could not find the link even if I created a new page and
placed the tiff file on it. Probably because the origional resided on the other Mac.
I opened the tiff file in Photoshop and Saved As to a new folder containing the new page.
Opened the page and placed the tiff file. No ? mark.
Thanks for the fun comments everyone.
