Splitting 3D model into layers

Hi,
I have a 3D model of a boat, created in a program called DelftShip and exported as a .obj file, that i would like to render using Photoshop CS6. However, the .obj file does not include layers, so i get the whole model as one layer in PS. So the whole model is on one layer and all colored grey. This makes it very difficult to color/texture/render different parts of the model in different ways. Say for example that i want a blue hull with reflection, and a matt white superstructure, this will be almost impossible to do with only one layer.
Is there any way to split the model into layers, so i can work on it more easily, or do you have any other suggestions on how i might approach this?
Thankful for any suggestions.
Regards
Marcus

There can be no "layers" because that's just not how 3D in PS works. Whether or not you can color individual parts is solely dependent on a) assigning different materials/ groups/ layer colors in your CAD application, b) choosing a suitable export format and c) actually making sure that info is retained during export, meaning you need to tell your export to embed materials and sub-meshes and possibly produuce an MTL file along with the OBJ.

Splitting huge Schema/E-R Model into Modular Schema/Multiple E-R Models

Hi,
Currently we have huge DB Schema (1500+ Tables) using 1 single OWNER ID.
Based on Domain Partitioning,we intend to create 6 new OWNER IDs (based on individual Module/Domain)
and re-assign the appropriate Tables into the respective Domain.
basically we expect 1500 Tables under one OWNER ID would now be split
into 250 Tables per OWNER ID with a total of 6 new OWNER IDs being created.
We also will need to create 6 new E-R Models ,1 per OWNER ID
Trying to find out what could be the best possible way to do the "splitting" of a
linear huge Data Model, into 6 modular E-R models. Going forward, we would like
to maintain individual Models on per Domain basis rather than the existing monolithic Model.
Any suggestions or tips on achieving this using SQL Developer Data Modeler would be greatly appreciated.
What is the best and clean way of achieving this
Thanks
Auro

Hi Auro,
first you should be aware that you can have foreign keys created only between tables in one model.
If this is not restriction for you then you can proceed:
1) create one subview per future model and put in each subview tables that will constitute the model
2) each model in separate design
- use "Export>To Data modeler Design" - select subview that you want to export and only objects belonging to that subview will be exported

How to split this string into 4 sections to a max 35 characters

Hello,
Does anyone have an idea how I can acheive this please.
I have this string
Expense_Inv_8- ExpenseInv_7- Exp001- Expense_Inv_6- Expense_Inv_5- Expense_Inv_4- Expense_Inv_3- Expense_Inv_2- Expense_inv1
and I need to display them in sections seperated by ';' as explained below
Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4
Expense_Inv_8- ExpenseInv_7- Exp001;Expense_Inv_6- Expense_Inv_5;Expense_Inv_4- Expense_Inv_3;Expense_Inv_2;
need to split this string into 4 sections seperated by ';' and each section should be of no more than 35 characters, if null should end ;;;
Section 1, 35 Character ended by;
Section 2, broken off after Expense_Inv_5 because Expense_Inv_4 will take it over 35 chracters)
Section 3, should only take Expense_Inv_4- Expense_Inv_3, because adding Expense_Inv_2 will take it over 35
characters, each record in the string is seperated by '-'
Section 4, dispays the reminder of the string

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you ask a question, it helps if you post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) and the results you want from that data.
I think I understand the problemk well enough to attempt a solution, but if the query below isn't right, please post that information.
WITH     cntr     AS
     SELECT     LEVEL     AS n
     FROM     dual
     CONNECT BY     LEVEL     <= ( SELECT MAX (LENGTH (txt))

,     got_best_path     AS
     SELECT     id
     ,     txt
     ,     MAX ( SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH ( TO_CHAR (c.n, '99')
                  ) AS best_path
     FROM     cntr     c
     JOIN     table_x     x     ON     c.n <= LENGTH (x.txt)
     START WITH     c.n     = 1
     CONNECT BY     c.n - PRIOR c.n     BETWEEN 1

,     got_pos     AS
     SELECT     id

;As written, this requires SQL*Plus 9 (or higher). You can have multiple versions or SQL*Plus on the same client, if you really need to keep the older version.
:section_length is the maximum length of each section (35, as you stated the problem).
:section_cnt is the number of sections. In the query above, this is 4. If you change it, you not only have to change the bind variable, but you have to change the hard-coded SELECT clauses of the main query and the last sub-query (that is, got_pos).
MODEL or PL/SQL would probably be better ways to solve this problem.

Why is it when i update my status on facebook from iohone it splits the updates into two differents boxes with some funky symbol. I have uninstall facebook and installed it over and it still does it. only the facebook IPHONE app.

why is it when i update my status on facebook from iphone it splits the updates into two differents boxes with some funky symbols at the beginning.. I have uninstall facebook and installed it over and it still does it. only the facebook IPHONE app where it says to update staus text to FBOOK i have already update my phone too.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues. I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion.

I can't seem to get my iMac (late 2009 model) into automatic sleep mode. If I manually put it into sleep I don't have any issues.
I used to solve the issue by running "PleaseSleep" application but that doesn't work anymore since Lion. I now want to fix the underlying problem.
I'm not running any weird background processes and in my energy saver settings I've tagged "put the hard disk to sleep when possible:, "allow power button to put computer to sleep" and "automatically reduce brigthness". All pretty standard.
Is there anyone who can give me some pointers ?

Today I solved the same problem for my iMac running Snow Leopard. See https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3008791#15947706. The method may help you, too.
For me it was the DynDNS Updater preventing my iMac from automatically entering sleep mode.
To my knowledge the cause of this sleep problem can only be a peripheral device or a process. So I suggest to first unplug all peripherals and test whether that's the cause. If not, I suggest to terminate one process after another and to test automatic entering of sleep mode after each. Start with user processes; continue with system process if necessary.
At least that's the way I found the offending process. Fortunately, I was able to change the configuration of that process to allow again automatic entering of sleep mode.
Good luck!

When importing a cd it splits the album into separate individual tracks instead of 1 album with numerouse tracks - how do I get them all together

When I import a CD from the Apple Mac drive it splits the cd into numerous single tracks in itunes instead of 1 album with all the tracks. How can I get it to import to the one place. I did try importing the same cd on a friends apple mac to see if it did the same thing and it imported the cd as 1 album with all tracks in there so I can't understand why it's separating them all.

This happens mostly when you import a compilation or a CD that is not noted in the Gracenote Database.
How to change back in one Album:
Mark all titles of that album (shift or cmd click)
Right click and choose "Get info"
Fill in the wanted name in "Album" and "Album Artist*"
Drag&Drop the wanted Album Art to the little window down right in that pane.
iTunes group and sort albums by that two entry's in the info pane. If the CD is not listed in the database but the titels, iTunes split the album to fit the titles to eventually matching albums of the artists.
Cheers - Lupunus
* If you import a compilation, choose "various artits" for the Album Artist field.

I have a DAQ Assistant configured to read multiple channels at the same time. When I wire a graph indicator to the output, I see all of my signals jumbled together. How do I split them up into seperate signals?

I have a DAQ Assistant configured to read 2 channels at the same
time. When I wire a graph indicator to the output, I see the 2
signals jumbled together. How do I split them up into seperate signals?
When I wire any type of indicator it is showing just one output of a single channel.
I want 2 indicators showing 2 different signals as expected from the 2 channels configured. How to do this?
I have tried using split signal but it end up showing only 1 output from 1 signal in both the indicators.
thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Yes you are right. I tried that but I did not get the result.
I just found the way. When we launch split signal, we should expand it (split signal icon) from above and not from below. It took me a while to figure out this.
thanks

How can I split a class into 2 files?

I converted a C++ program to Java recently and it works fine, but I ran into a problem.
One file is very large and I need to add more functionality. Unlike with C++ where you can just put new functions in another file, I don't see a way to do it in Java.
I made another file, and therefore another class, but the compiler complains that it can't call a static function from non-static context. (I did not declare it static so I guess it's assuming it) But I understand why. So I made the new class "extend" the old one so "this" would exist but that doesn't work -- Is it because the new class is a subclass of the original class?
There must be a way to do this. But I don't see what is likely obvious. HELP! And thanks.

JavaIsBetterThanCPP wrote:

Generally, however, a class that is large enough to split up into separate files is either one class that should be modularized further into separate classes, or it already is modularized and all that code is the result of many inner classes. What some people do is promote those inner classes to top-level members in their own file, and mark them as package-private. Using a package you can basically have two classes that know everything about each other and have full access to each other.
But personally, and until I see justification otherwise, semantics in Java being unbreakingly tied to a certain file structure and naming is the most bonehead and, frankly, non-Java thing about Java.
There's probably a pre-processor out there that will let you split a class into multiple files and will combine them into a single source file just-in-time to pass to the compiler.

How do I split each page into a PDF and name them after a line of text on the split page?

All,
I am running a report that is creating hundreds of letters to be sent to customers. When I run the report it creates one large PDF (one letter = one page). To help with a specific business solution I need to split each page into an individual PDF. I know I can extract the pages using the extraction tool. I have also been able to duplicate this from the Javascript console, but only with generic names. The problem is that I need each PDF named after the customer's account number. The account number is listed on the page that I am extracting, but I am having a hard time parsining the text on the pages to find it.
I need to be able to turn each page into a seperate PDF and then rename that PDF to match the account number list on the page.
The account number, is of course, different for every customer and has varied prefixes. The line of text that I need to read starts like this:
Account Number#: NJA00001
I need to just pull the NJA00001.
I would really love to automate this process.
Can you help me with this? Thanks in advance.
PS: I am a little rusty on my Javascript, its been a couple years.

This can probably be achieved with a custom-made script, but it's not possible to know for sure before seeing some sample files.

Crystal report - how to split a field into more fields

Hello,
I`m new to Crystal reports and I`ve got a trouble. I have field which contains an address - street, city, zip code. The example is:
STEHLIKOVA 977 165 00 PRAHA 620 - SUCHDOL 165 00.
What I need to achieve is to split this string into three separated fields. I`ve trouhg a couple of forums but haven`t been able to find a proper answer. The problem is that the addresses differ so I can`t use an absolute defining of a start position. Looking at the DB (HEXA code) the parts in the string are divided by two dots:
STEHLIKOVA 977..165 00 PRAHA 620 - SUCHDOL..165 00
I`ve been able to work out this solution:
stringVar array x := split({cparty.STREET_ADD},"..");
Local numberVar i;
Local stringVar outputString := "";
For i:=1 to Count(x) do
outputString := outputString + x[i] + Chr(10)
outputString;
It splits the string into three rows:
STEHLIKOVA 977
165 00 PRAHA 620 - SUCHDOL
165 00
And I don`t know how to find the end of each row so to be able to separate the strings and report them as three different fields.
Would be anyone so kind and help me out with this?
Thank you.
Petr

Hi
Actually using a for loop is not necessary here. All you need to do is to add several formula fields: one for street, one for city and one for zipcode. In @street field you add formula:
stringVar array x := split({cparty.STREET_ADD},Chr(13));
x[1];
Then you drag such formula field to details section of your report and watch preview to check if everything looks alright. Repeat for every formula field that you'd like see in your report.
In @city you add almost identical formula but you change index, i. e. instead of x[1] you need to use x[2]. Then for @zip x[3].
You may need to check if your address has all three parts - for example if you want to use formula in the second part of your address field you may need check first if there are at least two parts after split:
stringVar array := split({cparty.STREET_ADD},Chr(13));
numbervar c;
c := count(x);
if 2 <= c then
x[c];
Var 'c' is used to store the number of elements in array after split. Then I'd like to check if the part (second) actually exists. So I try to check if number of part that I want to refer to is not bigger than the number of elements in array after split (here stored in var 'c').
Actually the code presented above is not enough since you have no guarantee that you'll always get address structured in the very same way. For example in demo PL database I have zip code and city in the same row after split with Chr(13) as delimiter.
You'll need to experiment or ask someone to prepare correctly structured data coming from B1 to your report.
Kind regards,
Radek

Go to their support forum and ask-you will get a better answer from people who actually use the program.
It's not a paid for program is it?

Is it possible to install a 160 GB Toshiba slim-fit HDD from an iPod Classic 2009 model into a iPod 5th Gen Late-2006 model that originally had a 30 GB Toshiba drive?
I have had my 30 GB iPod video for about 7 years, it was a gift and has served me well. Unfortunately it was in my pocket when I brushed up against a very powerful magnet which latched onto the unit and scrambled the hardware. Sad iPod icon.
I was told I probably need to replace the HD in order to get it back to working order. What I am wondering is, would I be able to replace it with a larger capacity drive so long as I got a unit that was slim enough to fit into the casing?

Which Windows version are you trying to install? If I remember right, you can't use windows 8 on these older machines.
Other than that it's hard to say what could have gone wrong. I can only suggest going through the steps again carefully and making sure everything worked the way it should.
