Strang behavior when creating folders

Hi all!
Ever since I went from my old tower with Snow Leopard to a new 12-core running Lion this summer, Logic has been acting strangely when I'm trying to create a new folder in the Save As... dialog window. The normal behavior would be that you end up in the new folder after creating it, while I'm now endig up in the root folder every time. Are anyone else experiencing this? It seems to be happening only in Logic.
Ginge

Yes, I'm experiencing this. Once you've created a folder you then have to go back and direct Logic to that folder before saving. Otherwise it jumps back to the root and will make another folder there thinking that there's no new folder.
No idea why but this is happening, but it started on my recent Macbook Pro upgrade too.

Strange behavior when creating a document with an "html" node

A strange thing is happening here. I'm using the javax.xml.transform.Transformer to save some XML documents. I can create documents with any arbitrary DOM tree I want, but if I have the root node have a name of "html". somehow the Transformer decides to apply its own HTML rules and handles it differently from all other document types. The problem is that its html-specific rules are not what I want. Specifically, it is doing things like outputting <br> instead of
, putting in meta-equiv tags that I don't want, etc. This is all bad because I'm not writing HTML. I'm writing carrier-specific mobile xhtml documents and I don't want the javax.xml.transform.Transformer to be "helping" me out any.
There must be some way to get this under control. Can anyone advise me?
Thanks

I think I solved the problem: I need to put this line in:
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml");and that does the trick, and forces it to not get fancy when it's outputting <html>. I suppose there's a way of setting that in the TransformerFactory so I don't have to set it in every individual transformer I create but that's a minor issue.

How to make metadata fields required when creating folders

Hello all....
Related issue with SR 3-6472229431 and SR 3-6471130611.
We're using DIS 11.1.6 64-bits (2011_11_29 (rev 9756) 11.1.6.97) in a Windows 7 64-bits workstation (with UCM 11.1.1.5 in a Linux machine). The check-in of images to UCM goes fine.
I'm trying to make some metadata fields required when creating a folder. These fields are required when making a check-in, but not when creating folders.
Folders_g is enabled. DesktopTag too.
EDIT: Patch: 14695303 - WCC 11.1.1.5.0 BUNDLE ( MLR 16 ) NOV 6 2012 applied.
Is it possible?
Thanks for all.

After reading your response and rereading the original question a bit closer, the metadata prompting feature does not apply to creating new folders, only content.
Again, though, I think the focus here is in the wrong place. The metadata applied to a folder is intended to be ultimately applied to the content. You can build global rules that fire on submission of content to check if a field has a value, and throw an error if the value is empty.
If you expect users to create folders (and actually apply any metadata to the actual folder itself), you will be disappointed. Experience shows that users are not interested in that level of detail when creating content, let alone folders. Letting typical users create folders is a bad idea anyway, as they tend to create the same inefficient folder structures they previously created in file shares within Content Server.
If you need to tightly control folder attributes, you'll be better served by locking down the ability to create new folders. Otherwise you're looking at some type of customization. Keep in mind that you won't be able to customize the right click behavior of DIS. Any changes to DIS would have to be an enhancement request.

Strange behavior when I try to match a mpeg2 video with the menu size image

hello all,
got a strange behavior when I try to match a mpeg2 video with the menu size image,
menu size is 1920 x 1080 (photoshop file)
mpeg2 video 1920 x 1080 (1second 19 frames)
the idea is to go from the menu link to the next sub menu with a video as transition, using the same image on the video as the menu and then zooming in (in my case through a door) to end up after the zoom in the next level menu.
I try to achieve a smooth change from the first play menu picture to the video image into the next level menu picture,
everything works good but when I watch it on the preview mode on the left and right side of the video it shows a black bar at least 15 to 25 pixel wide, that means the video image appears smaller and it causes a little jump what is preety disturbing and can not be sold as a professional work.
why encore treats the video size and picture differently?
it's gratful appreciated if somebody who got experience in a transition I mentioned obove posting any solution,
thankl you all

Hi all
I'm having a very similar problem with Encore. My menu items are distorting (a minor but infuriating squashing top and bottom) when previewed.
Using Encore,PS,AE CS4
DVD format SD PAL DV widescreen
I created 3 menu frameworks and 3 video transistions to link them in AE. On the final frame of each transistion in AE I saved the frame with Composition>Save Frame to> Photoshop Layers. In PS i added the button functionality and saved.
In Encore I use Dynamic link to import AE transistions as timelines and imported each PS menu twice, once as "menu" and once as an asset.
When I link the timeline transistions to the menu and preview at the point the menu begins the whole image is squashed. When the next transistion is activated the image returns to its original size.
Thinking it was the use of PS that was causing the menus to distort I used the menu asset directly in the time line. Obviously no menu functionality but also no distortion. The AE transistion flowed straight into the "menu" just as I expected.
In the properties panel the menu Aspect Ratio 16:9
The AE transistions PAR is SD PALwidescreen 1.4587.
I did try the Blu Ray suggestion above but the same distortion was apparent.
Any suggestions short of squashing the video to match the menu would be welcomed.
Thanks

Strange behavior when shutting down - only works once

Hi there,
I'm taking advice from around the forum to create a shutdown button for my VI. When the user sends the shutdown command, the loop stops all processes running and turns off all heaters. Then when this is complete it passes a shutdown variable to all loops allowing them to close. This seems to work perfectly once, but when I hit run again and test it again, it fails. If I abort the VI and restart again, the shutdown works. I can't quite figure out what the behavior is doing here.
Attached is my program, it's a little messy but everything works, and it has to be added to by someone who isn't me, so I tried to keep everything clear and seperate. If anyone's got any ideas as to what is causing this strange behavior I'd love to hear it.
Thanks,
Chris.

First of all, your event loop should look something more like this. Otherwise you won't exit the loop until another event comes through.
Secondly, I think you are writing to the wrong control here (this is in your timed loop). I have no clue what is in the subVI, but I don't think it should be looking at the Shutdown PB control. That control should be in it's event case. But here you are trying to cause the shutdown event, but you are writing to the wrong control.

Strange behavior when compiled with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition

I wrote a program for Berkeley DBXML 2.2.13 on Windows XP that executes a query 5 times and prints out the runtime for each execution. When I run the program using the Debug version of the libraries the queries take about the same time to execute for all 5 executions. When I run the program using the Release version of the libraries the execution time of the queries degrades significantly between each execution. One query takes 2 seconds to execute the first time and 20 to execute the last. I have tried recompiling the Release version without optimization and the strange behavior persists. I have run both the Release and Debug versions several times and gotten the same results, so I doubt it is a program running in the background that is slowing the execution.
This behavior does not happen when I compile the program under Unbuntu using g++, so I assume it is caused by some flag set in the Release version of Visual C++. Has anyone else experienced this behavior and know what flags I should or should not set?
Thanks for your time.

Hi Lauren,
We've had users experience this before, and it seems to be a bug/"feature" of the default windows heap allocator. Please see this post for a bit more explanation and a solution:

Strange behavior when resizing with 'Selection Tool'

Hello,
I have a really strange issue when using selection tool to resize object. I have several rectangles stacked and grouped inside a layer. When I select one of them (either in Layer panel or with Group selection tool) and switch to 'Selection Tool (V)' to resize it, this tool behaves diferently at diferent zoom levels. Only at 200% zoom it behaves as it shoul.. With 100-150% zoom result is diferent - like there's a invisible box around selected object and I'm resizing it.. I've tried to explain the issue in attached image.. Anyone knows why is this happening?
Thanks.

- make new document, size 16383x16383px
- create rectangle any width, hight say 200px (or anything less then 320px for 5% zoom)
- select rectangle and show bounding box
- try resizing hight by stretching bounding box
- this is how same selection looks at diferent zoom levels
- same zoom level as befor, hight 100px..

Strange behavior when "trying" to burn a disk.

At least I think this is strange behavior, following the instructions in the help viewer, topic "Backing up your music to a CD or DVD." One thing for sure, it's not burning a disc and it ain't telling me why.
I select the playlist and click "Burn Disc"
Requests a blank disc. I insert one.
Message "checking media"
after about a minute, the disc ejects
Message "checking media" displays another 30 seconds
No other messages displayed.
What the ??? Shouldn't it at least display an error message??

Whoops, sorry, this was while burning a playlist.
I've also tried some Pleomax CD disks (Samsung), with no luck. I've tried burning directly from iTunes, and from Toast 7.
Of the types I've tried, the Sony DVD's have been the best for me. Haven't tried many types though. Maybe I can get disks one at a time until I find a brand my burner likes.
Still, isn't it strange that there is NO error message? It just quits?

Strange behavior when performing query

Hi all,
I'm getting some odd behavior when doing different kinds of queries and am hoping someone here can help out. I have a database with continuously updated PDML data (http://www.nbee.org/doku.php?id=netpdl:pdml_specification). I am opening anf querying the database from a seperate application. This appears to work fine for certain types of queries, and fails for other types with error messages that don't seem relevant. Specifically, some queries that use the attribute axis as the last leaf seem to get fouled up. Here are some example queries and the results I get:
First some queries that work:
Query: "string(collection()[1]/packet[1]/proto[1]/field[1]/@size)"
Result:
A valid number
Query: "collection()//proto[@name='geninfo']/field[@name='len']"
Result:
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
<field name="len" pos="0" show="64" showname="Packet Length" value="40" size="64"/>
Now some queries that don't work:
Query: "collection()//packet/proto/field/@size"
Result:
Output to stdout - "Transaction specified for a non-transactional database"
and an Exception with message - "Error: Invalid argument"
Query: "collection()//proto[@name='geninfo']/field[@name='len']/@name" (notice it's almost identical to above working query except with @name)
Result:
Same as above, an stdout about transactions and an exception about invalid arguments
What I find most interesting is that both errors (the one printed to stdout and the one I get in my exception) don't seem to have anything to do with the problem. I know the transactional stuff isn't messed up because the exact same code works for certain queries. I'm not sure about the "Error: Invalid argument" exception, but it's not very helpful by itself. I'm using the Java library and DBXML version 2.4.16. Anyone have any ideas what's going on?
Thanks,
Dave

As a follow-up, it appears that I just needed to wrap my attributes in the XPath string() function. For example "collection()//packet/proto/field/@size" does not work while "collection()//packet/proto/field/string(@size)" works fine.
I'm still not sure why it's spitting out an error message to stdout about transactions not being enabled when the only real error is with the query, but at least it's working now.

Strange behavior when pressing ENTER in a form page

Hi there
Please go to the address:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=20104:4
If you click the Create button, enter anything in the Name field and press ENTER while in the field, you will be taken back to the main page, the message Action Processed will be displayed, but no data will be inserted. If you click on the Create button though, it works fine.
Have anyone seen this? Any explanation for it? How to fix it? I could not find any reason for this behavior (the Name field is NOT an always submit page when enter pressed field type).
(btw the two pages are very simple, based on wizards without any customisation)
Thanks
Luis

i guess, trying the input form, the input text field for Name is an item 'textfield submit on enter'. But what happens is that when enter is pressed no additionally submit information is send, which is the case with buttons. Buttons call the doSubmit('<BUTTONNAME>') javascript function on click, allowing the process to run when thee are set conditionally.
Carl's answer by setting the process unconditional will also result this action will take place when another buton (without direct redirect) will fire this.).
So additionally when multple buttons and processes some new javascript kan be used to do the right submit on Enter. Example:
In Page header, or shared javascript import file create a JS function submitOnEnter
function submitOnEnter(submit,e){
var keycode;
if (window.event) keycode = window.event.keyCode;
else if (e) keycode = e.which;
else return true;
if (keycode == 13){
doSubmit(submit);
return false;
}else{
return true;
Then with you're item you define the js-event onKeyPress to call the function submitOnEnter
onkeypress="javascript:return submitOnEnter('CREATE',event);"

Strange behavior when trying to change backgrounds after Aperture install

Running 10.5.1 on my MacBook Pro without a hitch until today. Installed Aperture 1.5 and updated it to 1.5.6 last night and it too works fine.
However, today when I went to change my background image in System Preferences I encountered some strange voodoo. I originally under the Desktop applet in System Preferences I had the default images and folders supplied with the operating system, and one images folder I maintain under my Documents folder for my personal backgrounds.
Now I am no longer able to view my personal backgrounds folder in the System Preferences Desktop applet to select one of my images as a background. Instead I have, literally, two occurrences of the Aperture Projects folder listed under the default operating system background image options.
Initially I found I cannot discard either instance of the Aperture folder, nor can I re-add my personal images folder (states the folder is already in the list as an option). Naturally I figured something might be amiss with permissions. So I rebooted and ran the Disk Utility which checked my drive to find no pertinent errors. No change in symptom.
Next I renamed my personal images folder. This produced a change in symptom.
Now I only observed one occurrence of the Aperture Projects Folder in the System Preferences applet. However, when I went to add my newly renamed personal images folder the second occurrence of the Aperture Projects folder appeared and would not let me access anything therein.
Could certainly be a problem specific to 10.5.1, but thought it worth posting here in case anybody else wants to try to troubleshoot or has the same voodoo. Plus, the problem did not occur in 10.4.X running Aperture - so I think it is pretty specific to 10.5.1.
Not a show stopper, but certainly weird. Hopefully not indicative of any additional problems lurking under the covers.
TIA for any input or responses.

adding an iphoto library solves the issue ...

HTTP Handler strange behavior when updating HR data

Hi there,
Brief summary: Executing a function module from inside a HTTP Handler gives a different result than executing the function module direcly through SE37. The user defined for the SICF service calling the Handler is the same as the one we use for SE37.
Details:
We have created an HTTP Handler implementing the interface IF_HTTP_EXTENSION.
We have also defined a new service through SICF that access the previous Handler.
We have a web application accessing SAP through that HTTP Handler.
Within our HTTP Handler (within the IF_HTTP_EXTENSION~HANDLE_REQUEST method), we are calling a custom function module that perform different actions depending on the parameters received.
The solution works really well but we have identified an issue for some actions: when we execute some background updates (like calling HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION) and the transaction returns an error, the HTTP Handler suddenly stops and the HTTP call returns an error.
The strange thing is that executing the function module directly (without calling the HTTP handler from the web) captures the error and continues the execution of the function module.
It seems that when the function module gets called from the Handler, there is some screen or user parameters that affect the result of the transaction, and we cannot find the way to capture that error and let the Handler to continue.
Any idea, suggestion, alternative solution would be much appreciated
Best regards,
Miguel

Hi Olivier, thanks for your reply, nice to see you are still out there
You raise a good point. We are reusing an "old" web app that was connecting to SAP through the DCOM connector. The RFC (the function module I mentioned on my first post) cannot be modified as it handles tons of different web calls, so we decided to call that RFC from the Handler.
It may not be the best solution, but the web app has been modified to call the different handlers (for the different environments) and still hope to find a work around our current problem.
Other than that, it works really well and performance is amazing
Thanks again,
Miguel

Sql ddl replication strange behavior with create table

Hello, I create the following table on my oracle DB server:
CREATE TABLE test (a NUMBER(*,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
b DATE DEFAULT SYSDATE NOT NULL));
ALTER TABLE test
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_test PRIMARY KEY (a);
when I deploy and sync, on the mobile I have the table well created, but the not null and default sysdate on the b column on are not set. It's null with no default values.
Have anyone an idea ?
Thank's for reply.

We do not replicate not null or default values on Oracle Lite 5.0.2.x. This functionality will be available in the 10g release of Oracle Lite.

Strange behavior when searching a phrase using reg exp and dynamic sql

Hi,
I have a strange issue while using dynamic sql for an apex page. I have a requirement to search a string in the database column which is entered by user on a page item. The search process should search the whole phrase only.
I have a query generated dynamically in the back end and use it in a cursor in the stored procedure
SELECT t.group_cn , t.group_desc, t.group_type, t.partner_organization_id, t.partner_organization
FROM vr_idm_group t WHERE regexp_like(t.group_desc,'(^|\W)HR Selection & Assignment(\W|$)', 'i')The pl sql code with the dynamic sql statements are below.
   IF p_search_process NOT in ('PARTNER') THEN
      OPEN v_cursor FOR v_sql;
   ELSE
      OPEN v_cursor FOR v_sql USING p_search_id;
   END IF;
   LOOP
      FETCH v_cursor INTo v_obj.group_cn, v_obj.group_desc, v_obj.group_type, v_obj.partner_organization_id,
         v_obj.partner_organization, v_obj.match_count;
      EXIT WHEN v_cursor%NOTFOUND ;
      v_search_array.extend;
      v_search_array(v_search_array.last) := v_obj;
      dbms_output.put_line(v_sql);
   END LOOP;The search works fine if the search string does not contain any special character like &,- etc.
However, if the search string contains any special character, it does not return any thing. This strange issue happens only if I call the procedure from the apex page and the search string contains a special character. (please note that the procedure works fine even from apex if the string does not have a special character). When I debugged this, found that, the cursor does not fetch any rows (it is supposed to fetch two rows) for unknown reason. When I run the query separately, it returns the two rows (in which the column group_desc contains the search string "HR Selection & Assignment") as desired. Also, when I test the procedure in the back end (PLSQL developer), it works fine.
Any idea, what is causing this strange behaviour?
Advance thanks.
Regards,
Natarajan

i don't see anything about a dataProvider. you're assigning a source for a scrollpane. scrollpane's don't have a dataProvider property.
anyway, other than arrayRun always being false when that last if-statement executes, what's the problem? doesn't that movieclip display when that 2nd branch of the last if-statement executes (assuming instance is defined correctly etc)?

Strange behavior when opening ESS iview in new window

Hi all,
I have a problem that i find very strange. In ESS, when opening a iView in a new window, for some users the link to the ITS service gets corrupt..
An example:
http://XXXXXX:54500/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.pagebuilder.IviewModeProxy?iview_id=pcd%3Aportal_content/com.ericsson.Ericsson/com.ericsson.ESS/com.ericsson.roles/com.ericsson.EP_ESS_HRMS/com.ericsson.personal_information/com.ericsson.previous_employers/com.sap.pct.ess.persinfo.pz28&iview_mode=defaultNavPathUpdate=false&buildTree=false
If you look at this link you can see that the & sign between iview_mode and NavPathUpdate is missing and makes the launch of the iview will fail.
If I use the same link for opening the page in a new window this error does not appear.
I have tried to change the parameters that are passed on but this does not help..
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Max

Has anybody found a solution to this?
We have the same problem when calling BW Reports.
