Spin behavior with particles emitter not smooth when close to camera

Hello,
Just got Motion 4 and was playing with it last night with the particle system.
http://idisk.mac.com/pixmation/Public/motionParticlesTest.png
As you can see in the screen shot, I have an emitter spinning and moving towards past the camera emitting particles at zero speed (leaving a trail). As it get close to the camera, the particle curve is not smooth. I am wondering if this is some kind of limitation or am I missing some setting?
Thanks in advance,
Edmond Leung

Without seeing a screenshot of the behavior settings, I'm gonna say that the problem is how you're animating the position of the emitter. You should look into the Motion Path behavior. I think it's much better suited to a curving animation.
It's certainly not a limitation of the software.

Background is not smooth when rendered video

Hi,
I am trying to render a background which I applied from "textures". Problem with with it is... it is not smooth when i play it back.. it kinda stops and plays again.
i tried.. filed options (even/odd/none), changed size... nothing happens.. it is still not smooth. the frame rate is 29.97 and i will be using the clip in FCP 4.5.
can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

As far as I know there isn't any way to change the codec that LiveType uses on its render. Even if there was I'd probably still use the Animation Codec.
Even though your exported LT movie may not play back smoothly when you watch it in QuickTime, it should be smooth in your FCP project once it's been rendered out to tape or a more compressed format.

Down pmnts with taxes are not permitted when processing with jur.code (Message no. FS206)

Hi Guys,
I am facing very critical issue on down Payment request, to process with saperate Tax Value.
We are supporting on Roll-out for Germany. We have implemented all standard SAP processes in the Project. We have also implemented many interfaces and one of the Interface is Sabrix Tax Engine (Tax Jurisdiction Code).
As per the Germany legal requirement, the Tax has to get calculated whenever the funds gets transfered from one Bank Account to Another Bank Account.
Coming to the issue: In the Customer Down Payment scenario, we are creating the Down payment request for Customer and as per Germany local requirement the Tax of 19% has to get calculated on Down payment.
For an Example: We have the Sales Order Contract Value of 100,000.00 EUR and we are creating the Down Payment reqeust of 10% which is 10000 EUR + Tax 19% 1900 EUR.
We are trying to post the Down Payment request in F-37 and we get the issue "Down pmnts with taxes are not permitted when processing with jur.code". This error is appearing due to Sabrix Tax engine (Tax Jurisdiction Code) has implemented in our System.
We have gone through the SAP notes 97288 and 213567 and understood that the Standard SAP does not support us to post the Down Payment request with Separate Tax Value, when the External Tax Engine has implemented.
I request you to suggest me, if you have already seen this issue in any of your Projects and fixed through the work-around solution. We have been working on work-around since 2 weeks, however no result.
Below is the error message:
Down pmnts with taxes are not permitted when processing with jur.code
Message no. FS206

HI Preeti,
Thanks for your response. We have already seen the similar SAP notes and the SAP notes explains that the "Down pmnts with taxes cannot be done along with with jur.code". The only solution is to post the DP without Tax.
However there might be some workaround which can be done in SAP, to process the Down Payment/Advance Payments with Tax Value along with Jurisdiction Code. I would like to know this.
Did any one seen this case in your experiece, if yes, what is the work-around solution?.
Need your help guys!,...

Getting error "Object variable or with block variable not set" when trying to open a FR report in studio

Problem Description
We are on FR 11.1.2.2.305 installed on AIX. a user is getting this error: "Object variable or with block variable not set" when trying to open a FR report from FR studio client installed on windows xp . Initialy, we thought it may be a FR client installion issue. We uninstalled and cleaned up registry and did a fresh installation of the client but the issue still persists. The FR server and the client are on the same version.
The user is a LDAP user who is facing the issue. We have confirmed with other users and they dont have any issue accessing FR report from their own client but when they try to connect from the users machine who is having issues, the others users also see the above error. All the users are ldap users and all belong to same shared services groups so the provisiong is the same.
Any input will be appreciated.
Thanks

Red Timeline Box is not smooth when sliding

In the editing mode, I am selecting the red timeline to move
the timeline throughout the time of the slide. The movement of the
red line jumps around and is not smooth. When selecting the play
button, The slide works but you see the timeline stops and then
jumps to another time on the slide. It is not smooth. Is there a
setting that I am missing? Has anyone else run into this issue?
Thanks!

I'm going to stick my beak in here and suggest that the
timeline editor function (I'm assuming Cap 4) has a problem. What
pbissaillon is trying to do is exactly what made me make my first
post to this forum. Our issue came about when we tried to grab the
playhead and drag it over audio to try and find the synch point for
highlight boxes, and on the third or 4th occasion the screen would
whiteout leaving only the highlight boxes on screen and Cap would
become unresponsive. But before this happened we could see that the
playhead would slow, judder or even stop if it came across a
timestrip relating to a highlight box in the timeline. We'd then
shutdown the project and if we tried to reload would be rewarded
(randomly) with a message "QuizEdit.dll not present (previous
response =8)". [We had no quiz slides in project so this was odd].
The only way out was to close Cap wait till the buffers were
flushed and then reload Cap for a retry - this naturally was a real
pain.
However, one other posting about audio difficulties has led
Adobe to suggest a workaround consisting of re-registering the
nsaudio dll. When we've got a moment I'm going to create a
one-slide project to replicate the problem and try hand
re-registering both QuizEdit and nsaudio and see where we go. In
the meantime if Rick you would kindly rehighlight the bug link I
will send a test project to Adobe.
Sorry to be a bit wordy,
Regards,
Henry

5K screen not smooth when scrolling

When i scroll down on my 5K screen it is jumpy and not smooth (and such that i get very tired eyes and can actually see the jumping happening so it is apparently slow in adjusting)
Any suggestions what to do?

Amazing i've been told this is how the 5K screen looks and it is 'normal behaviour'. I get a headache working behind my 5K, i can see text and photo's jump and screetch into position, reading can only be done on a steady screen (and then too it is jumpy) and all simply visible with my own bare eyes. If this is normal it is a faulty product.
I am now discussing with my supplier exchanging 5K for regular iMac so i can work again. Totally disappointed in the 5K, i have this for work not for art! If i had known this i would NEVER have bought a 5K. And i also believe the 5K should not be out there, technology is apparently not there yet for this massive retina screen. Have Ipad2 with retina screen and that is beautiful, works absolutely fantastic.

Error: object variable or with block variable not set when creating journal

Hello
When I try to create a new journal, I get an error "object variable or with block variable not set"
This is happening with some computers but not all of them, the same user can create a journal in some computers.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling BPC office client but that did not work.
Do you have any other ideas ?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
You have to check first if you are able to access the reporting service frm that speific client machine typing:
http://<reporting server name>/reports. If all is woking well , you have to check also the number of default sheets for an empty excel sheet (should be 3) - I ma not sure what version are you using.
If still not work, please let me know when exactly the error appear, when you try to open the template (clicking on journal option) or after when you fill the report, save it, so on.
Best regards,
Mihaela

PanelGrid with binding attribute not rendering when event on page fires

I am having a similar issue with my components not being rendered from a dynamic binding attribute as described by this post:http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=671672 but for different reason. I have combed the forum and other sources for a week now, tried numerous variations of this based on suggestions I've read for rendering dynamic components and am unable to find the problem. I would appreciate guidance as I don't know what else to do and I imagine there is something basic about the JSF flow layout or component classes I am not doing correctly.
From a high level, I have a page with two panel groups. The first contains a list of command links (like a menu) that have an actionlistener that populates a list of QueryVariable objects called filterCriteria in the backing bean based on the selection made and then calls a function to update components in the second panel. The second panelGroup contains a panelGrid with a binding attribute that constructs a dynamic set of input fields based on the content of the filterCriteria list. When I first naviagate to this page from another page, the fields are rendered properly. However, if I then select a commandLink from the menu, the panelGrid disappears and is not rendered.
I've stepped through the code in a debugger and my actionlistener is called when I select a command link. However, the binding attribute method is not called at this time, so I added a direct call to it from the action listener. I know the actionlistener is working because I've verified it in the debugger and if I navigate away and come back to the page, then the binding method is called and the new selection is reflected in a rendered panelGrid. Why is it not rendering though when I first select the commandLink and the page is updated. Also, fyi, there is an action method for the commandlinks but it returns null;
FWIW, I'm using MyFaces and Facelets in my application.
Below is my code. This is inside a managed session bean:
JSF Snippet:
<h:panelGrid id="inputVarsTable" columns="3" binding="#{query.table}"/>
     public HtmlPanelGrid getTable() {
          if(table == null)

          return constructSearchInputTable();
     public void setTable(HtmlPanelGrid table) {
          this.table = table;
// Updates table component to reflect filterCriteria
     public HtmlPanelGrid constructSearchInputTable()
          HtmlOutputLabel outLabel;

          FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
          UIViewRoot uIViewRoot = facesContext.getViewRoot();
        Application application = facesContext.getApplication();
          children = table.getChildren();
    children.clear();
          try {
               for (int i = 0; i < getFilterCriteria().size(); i++) {
                    QueryVariable var = getFilterCriteria().get(i);
                    String id = "var" + i;
                    //<h:outputLabel for="#{var.name}" styleClass="label">
                    outLabel = new HtmlOutputLabel();
                    outLabel.setFor(id);
                    outLabel.setStyleClass("label");
                    // <h:outputText value="#{var.name}" />
                    outText = new HtmlOutputText();
                    outText.setValue(var.getName());
                    outText.setParent(outLabel);
                    outLabel.getChildren().add(outText);
                    outLabel.setParent(table);
                    children.add(outLabel);
                    //<h:inputText id="#{var.name}" value="#{var.value}" required="true" />
                    inText = new HtmlInputText();
                    inText.setId(id);
                    String bind = "#{query.filterValues['" + var.getName() + "']}";
                    inText.setValueBinding("value", application.createValueBinding(bind));
                    if(var.getDefaultValue() == null)
                         inText.setRequired(true);
                    inText.setParent(table);
                    children.add(inText);

                    children.add(message);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               log.error(e);
          return table;
// Command Link Menu ActionListener
     public void structuredQuerySelection(ActionEvent e) {
          queryType = QueryType.StructuredQuery;
          UICommand cmd = (UICommand) e.getSource();
          filterSelection = (String) cmd.getValue();
          Map<String, SearchRequestCtx> queries = pdp.getGenericMetadata().savedQueries;
          SearchRequestCtx ctx = queries.get(filterSelection);
          filterCriteria = new ArrayList<QueryVariable>();
          filterCriteria.addAll(ctx.getVariables());
          constructSearchInputTable();
     // Command Link Menu Action
     public String selectStructuredQuery()
          return null;
     }BTW, this is my first post and I don't really know how that Duke Dollar thing works but I'm happy to offer some to anyone that can solve this issue for me.
Thanks,
Ken

Glad to hear I am not the only one struggling with this type of issue.
I tried your suggestion but it caused a NoSuchElementException when the page tried to render. Stepping through the code, the init function is always called after my panelGrid is constructed. I even commented out the logic to clear the children and confirmed that in the constructed page, the outputText component that binds to init is the first element on the page - right after the opening body tag. Maybe, JSF doesn't necessarily construct the page in top to bottom order? Also, the exception makes me think that this gets called too late in the lifecycle to work. Were you able to get this to work?

PDF conversion with PDF2ID; Hypertext not working when exported back to pdf.

I have done a PDF conversion with PDF2ID, however Hypertext is not working when I exported it back to pdf. I am using the PDF2ID plug-in program to redo all the product booklets for our company as the hypertext did not work when downloaded to any smart phone. All that appeared were blank placeholders in each booklet index page.
According to the PDF2ID people the program plug-in recovers all URLs static and dynamic and bookmarks and local links and suggested I check with Adobe ID5 for help, but Adobe says my $1,000 ID5 is no longer supported and that I should go to the forums.....so here I am.
This is the first time I've even opened my ID5, so I'm a bit lost. Now I need to improve the quality of the PDFs, as we also need to convert all images to TIFF-CMYK in order to have the booklets printed & bound professionally. they tell me ID can do that.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
David

Ugh...in some companies, that is training.
Don't take this the wrong way David, but of course ID can't do anything. PDF2ID conversions can be sketchy in the hands of the experienced. The same can be said of properly preparing matials for print. As Bob has already alluded, you're in an unfair position there. It's not uncommon for "management" types to just throw some sophisticated tools at a need and expect someone to make it work. In order to do what's being asked of you, you'll have to learn a fair bit about InDesign and production. It's too soon to ask about the output when you haven't learned to manage the input.

Slide transition not smooth when using a continue button

Hopefully someone can help me with this issue. I'm not new to Captivate, but cannot resolve this one on my own. I'm using CS4.
I've created a Captivate movie that has a combination of software simulation and simple slides that have a caption on them. The ones with the captions also include a continue button that pauses the movie so the user can read the information and then when they click the continue button, the movie continues. Simple enough. The problem is when I playback the movie, the slides that have a continue button blink when transitioning from one slide to the next. It looks like the background image (same on all slides) is blinking, which it should not. The settings are set not to transition, so it looks smooth.
The slides that do not have a button transition just fine, looking as if it is one continuous slide. This blinking is quite annoying and distracts from the smooth transition of the rest of the movie. Has anyone else noticed this, and have you found a solution to fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Stevie G

Hi there
What is the Button programmed to do?
* Continue
* Go to next slide
My thought here is that if it's jumping to the next slide, perhaps try using Continue and configure timing so it may appear without the flash?

Not smooth when switch screen on my RMBP

I upgrade my Retian Macbook Pro to OS X Mountain Lion and I found when I switch screen it is not as smooth as it used to be when the computer is running with the Intel graphics 4000. It's kind of dazed for me when switching to wallpapaer. It became better if I choose to use the GT650M but it will use more power. Anyone have the same feeling?

Powershell unzip with shell.application not working when launched from windows service

I have a deployment agent on a machine implemented as a windows service. Service is 32-bit and runs on windows server 2008R2 x64 SP1 with powershell V2. Powershell script requires elevation and to run under x64 because of dependency to powershell module
'IIS Administration'. To achieve this, the service starts a cmd file which in turn launches powershell x64 console:
C:\WINDOWS\sysnative\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe "Start-Process C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell -ArgumentList '-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoLogo -NonInteractive -NoProfile -File C:\Temp\EndJobCmd\Install.ps1' -Verb RunAs"
This seems to work well. The problem I have is that the script has a sequence where it unpacks a zip file to a destination folder using shell.application, this works fine when triggered manually on the server or through the task scheduler, but when triggered
from the service it does not extract any files at all (cannot see any errors thrown by the script but it seems to continue to execute as it logs a successful message to the event log after finishing).
Unzip sequence looks like:
$shell = New-Object -com shell.application
$pkg = $shell.namespace($sourceFile)
$installDir = $shell.namespace($targetDir)
$installDir.Copyhere($pkg.items(), 20)
Any advice greatly appreciated. I have searched some and seen a few people with similar issue but have yet to find a solution.

If it's still actual, I managed to fix this with having CopyHere params equal 1564.
So in my case extract zip function looks like:
function Expand-ZIPFile{
param(
$file, $destination
$shell = new-object -com shell.application
$zip = $shell.NameSpace($file)
foreach($item in $zip.items())
$shell.Namespace($destination).copyhere($item,1564)
"$($item.path) extracted"
1564 description can be found here - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb787866(v=vs.85).aspx:
(4) Do not display a progress dialog box.
(8) Give the file being operated on a new name in a move, copy, or rename operation if a file with the target name already exists.
(16) Respond with "Yes to All" for any dialog box that is displayed.
(512) Do not confirm the creation of a new directory if the operation requires one to be created.
(1024) Do not display a user interface if an error occurs.

Page with PartialTriggers is not working when it loads for the first time

Hi All,
I am experiencing unexpected behavior when using partial triggers and this recurres every time the page loads and the second time it works fine.
Here is the requirement, The page has a check box, when checked, two text boxes should be disabled. When unchecked the two fields should be enabled.
(The fields are Start Date Time and End Date Time in the code below). I am also handiling the Date Validations on value change listener of Start Date time and have no issues on that.
When I try to enter the dates on page load (The check box - "Process Full Indicator" is not selected), I enter the required fields (PEID, Dates and check the Process IAF and Process SMS check boxes and click on the ProcessRFI Button, the date fields are emptied and nothing happens. When i redo the same thing the second time, it works.
The button invokes a BEPL process.
One of the links suggested that I use the partialTrigger tag in the parent layout, I used in the panelFormLayout and it sill did not reflect.
I am facing the same issue in an other page that is reteriving data from a DB Table. As I notice, both the pages are invoking dataControlls. Not too sure if it is related.
Kindly help.

Hi John,
My page is not a part of a task flow. The whole app is an Admin app comprising of multiple individual pages navigated using Menu.
I have tried to run this page individually on my local machine as well as when deployed on the WLS server. The behavior is the same.
Kindly advice,
Thanks,
Ram

LV7.1 Strange behavior with Automatic Error Handling occuring when it shouldn't [LV 7.1 Pro on WinXP for Tablet PC's]

[LV 7.1 Pro on WinXP for Tablet PC's]
I recently let a rather large LV app of mine run in the development environment while I was out for a couple of days. Upon returning I found that the app had hung for ~22 hours waiting for an answer to an Automatic Error Handling (AEH) dialog proclaiming an Error 7 in New File without any indication of the VI hierarchy that called New File. I set about ensuring that AEH dialogs would not pop up and have not been able to discover how I could have possibly received one in the first place.
Subsequent investigation revealed:
Neither AEH option in Options>Block Diagrams were checked.
Network problems had occurred around the time that the app had hung. All file paths are network paths when running in the development environment, so the cause of the error was most likely valid, even if the AEH dialog appearance wasn't.
My app has only one instance where the New File primitive is used by me. That subVI and all others above it in the hierarchy DO NOT have the AEH property enabled. The error out cluster of New File in my subvi is wired.
My app has three instances where New File is called from a vi.lib vi (Open/Create/Replace File.vi, Open Config Data.vi, and Prompt Web Browser Path.vi), none of which have the AEH property enabled. Nor does any of their calling VI's. All three instances also have their error out cluster wired.
A utility to examine the AEH property of all VI's (with all top level and dynamic VI's loaded) in memory reported that only 1 of 308 vi's ( RGT Does File Exists.vi from the Report Generation Toolkit) had that property true. That vi has no subVI's other than the File/Directory Info primitive and no calling VI's in common with any of the vi's that call New File, except a top level VI.
As long as 'Enable automatic error handling dialogs' remains unselected in options>block diagram, I am unable to get an AEH dialog for either the New File or File/Directory Info primitives in a test VI with AEH property enabled and their error out clusters unwired no matter what invalid path I pass to the functions. As soon as the options>block diagram>Enable AEH dialogs' is selected, both primitives fire AEH dialogs with no error out wired and don't when wired. i.e. works as advertised.
In other words I can find no reason why I should have gotten the problem AEH dialog...
I cannot afford for this app to hang because of a network problem, other portions of the app that were running concurrently correctly handled the error and, had the AEH dialog not appeared, the app would have made corrections or shutdown in an orderly fashion.
Any ideas?

Very good.
Write Characters to File.vi>Open/Create/Replace File.vi>New File
New File throws the error. Open/Create/Replace strips the hierarchy from the source of the error. Write Characters passes it to the General Error Handler. I never looked above O/C/R file in the hierarchy except for enable automatic error handling property. The tip-off should have been to realize that O/C/R file was stripping the hierarchy from the error and look above that.
The real irony is that Write Characters was being used to log error cluster data to an error log file...
Save as... Copy without updating... the OEM 'Write Characters to File' is gone from this app.
Thanx (a bunch)
