Supported pdf versions and mouse over problem for Xcelsius 2008 SP3

Hi,
Have below queries regarding Xcelsuis 2008 SP3.
(1) Encountered last character truncation problem for the x-axis and y-axis labels when viewed using adobe reader versions higher than 9.0.0. Viewing the pdf doc using adobe reader v9.0.0 has no label truncation problem. Preview in Xcesius is also ok.
(a) Y-axis label - eg. No. of students. The last char [s] is truncated when exported to pdf.
(b) X-axis label u2013 when labels are oriented vertically, they are very close to the x-axis. The last char is truncated.
Please advise what is the supported pdf versions for Xcelsius 2008?
Any workaround to overcome the truncation problem?
(2) Mouseover in charts. When the series name has < symbol, Xcelsius truncates the remaining text that's after the < symbol.
Is this a limitation that < symbol cannot be used? Any workarond for this? Any document to reference on the limitations of Xcelsius? e.g. If series name is '>1 and <=2', mouse over desc becomes '>1 and '.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi ,,There are a lot of developments in SP3 version. But some loopholes which I caughtu2026
1. The value button/spinner is no longer supporting a cell having some formula. Also the time it is taking to load data which depends on value button/spinner as a result of change in it, is comparably very high as compared to earlier version.
2. Still there is no component like pre-load animation. So it is difficult to know weather the tool is running or not when one selects an option in some selector.
3. One still finds it difficult to work with a large range of data/complex spread sheet in xcelsius as it crashes while exporting.
4. Export to excel still needs Tomcat Web server,Java help. It is not simplified.

Problem with Xcelsius 2008 sp3 service pack chart slider into adobe flex

Hello All,
I tried to use the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 and created a Chart with a slider the new UI element which is introduced in the Service pack versions .. now i tried to implement the logic in Adobe flex builer 3 setting the compiler properties as hot fix 2.0 . Followed all the rules like creating an action script and creating MXML component.. Now when i try to embed the same swf whic is generated into webdynpro component it gives me error tht some classes or some events or some variables are missing..
According to my assumption i doubt wether the xcelsius 2008 sp3 will support the adobe flex 3 with this hot fix which i was initialy using .. So can anybody suggest me what can be doen to overcome this issue and make my new chart with slider run in my webdynpro abap :(...
Regards,
Sana.

Hi Sana,
You might be using Flex 3 sdk library files.
Just check in Properies of your Flex project -> Flex Build Path -> Library Path .
You might get the library files as Flex 3.*
If it is the case then change it to Flex 2.0.1 Hotfix 3.
now create a new project and compile your application and use the same swf.
Otherwise try to import any existing Flex 2 project folder with compiler flex 2 ver. then try the same swf in your xcelsius application.

Vivek

What do I need to create Flex custom components for Xcelsius 2008 SP3?

Hello, and thanks for your time.
I have recently been roped into creating some custom components in Flex 3 for use in Xcelsius 2008 SP3. I can create custom components in Flex, but I have no idea how to get them into Xcelsius.
I have begun my own research into everything I am going to need, but I am hoping someone out there who has done this can provide a user-friendly itemized list of all the parts that are needed to accomplish this task. I want to make sure I do not miss anything.
Thanks for any insight you may be able to provide.
What I have so far:
Flex Builder 3
Xcelsius Engage Server 5.3 (2008)
What I think I need:
Xcelsius 2008 component SDK
Cheers!

Mouse over solution for jdk1.0

hi all,
I am interested in making the equivalent of a mouse over solution for a java applet.
Basically I'll have approximately 100 Rectangle objects representing images on the applet.
When the person moves the mouse over these 100 rectangle objects, i'll use contains() method to determine if the mouse is over the object in question.
If true, the image will be changed to represent the mouse over event .
I thought for a msecond about looping through all the rectangle objects each time the mouse moves. but that seemed impractical since the mouse can move pretty quickly.
It seemed to me the best option was to extend the Rectangle object and put an event listener on it . so that the Rectangle object can be triggered at the same time or individually as needed in response to the mousemove event .
Does anyone have any thoughts about that ?
does anyone know how I would possible implement something like that for java 1.0
thanks
stev

it seems like I have to extend Component some how to get access to enableEvents method.
Here is my class
class ListeningRectangle extends Rectangle{
     public ListeningRectangle(int w, int x, int y, int z, Component c){
          super(w,x,y,z);
          c.enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK);
     public void mouseMoved (MouseEvent me) {
     System.out.println("event has been received by rectangle");
I am using this class in conjunction with a java applet (targetted to 1.0-1.1 ).
I'm passing a reference of the applet in to create this ListeningRectangle like this
new ListeningRectangle(a,b,c,d,this);
my objective is to have about 100 different rectangle areas defined on the java applet.
and when the person moves the moves the mouse of the applet rapidly, only the appropriate ListeningRectangle object would respond.
any ideas on how to get this done ? ?

Mouse over event for every word inside a text?

I want to do a separate mouse over event for every word inside a text.
or at least get the string below the mouse cursor.
any hint?
henry

There are no events for it but you can use TextField.getCharIndexAtPoint() to determine the character where the mouse is over, and from there you can work out the word where the mouse is over.

Getting Device Properties like OS,Model,Brand,SDK,Version and CPU on Air for Android

Hi there,
I just wanted to share this old blog post in case no one knew about this here (like i didn't). I have no affiliation with this person, i just think its great!
Getting Device Properties like OS,Model,Brand,SDK,Version and CPU on Air for Android
http://www.funky-monkey.nl/blog/2010/11/11/getting-device-properties-like-os-model-brand-s dk-version-and-cpu-on-air-for-andoid/
I was able to correctly identify DroidX and Motorola Xoom family edition in my test, with no ane, pretty cool!

Okay. I've found an answer:
yes, you can and have to add these icons via the descriptor file, since flash wont let you. But before you do that, go into the "Air publish" settings in flash. Here, right on page 1, there is the "include files" section. Add your icon pngs there. Hit OK and exit these settings. Now open the descriptor with an editor outside of flash and write in the files like I posted above. Close. Save. Make it write protected. No go to flash and publish.

You can't. Once your warranty expires, that's it.

This is to inform that Windows 7 is currently not supported on Xcelsius 2008 SP3.
There are however discussions to be available in the next release.
Best regards,

Hi Jenni,
It's working fine for me on Win7.
You may want to use the XP Compatibilty mode (standard in Win7) or "install/run as administrator".

Issues with Service Pack 2 for Xcelsius 2008

I installed SP2 for Xcelsius 2008 and after completion I opened the xcelisius and found the Vertical Axis Labels are disabled under
the Apperance tab -> Text for the columnar chart components. But when I insert a new component they become visible.
It is a big dashboard and recreating all the components all over is a nightmare.
Can someone please suggest if there is a fix for this ?
THanks,
Sam

Sam,
Copy all the components from the existing dashboard and paste it in a new one. This should solve your problem.

Xcelsius 2008 sp3 and Flex 2.0.1 Hotfix3 - Flex 3 Charts

Hello,
I'm working inserting some Flex charts into Xcelsius, but I've been having some compatibility problem. Let me explain:
I have Xcelsius 2008 sp3 and I'm working in Flex builder 3 but when I was creating the xcelsius-objects project. I selected to compile the project the Flex builder 2.0.1 hotfix 3 SDK.
When I have used this SDK I have not all the capabilities in the column chart that I need, some labels option in ColumnChart doesn't work, but when I selected Flex 3 SDK to compiled the entire ColumnChart object doesn't appear. If I try to insert the project builted in Flex 3 SDK when I open Xcelsius, I receive a lot of Exceptions, like to Xcelsius didn't found some clases. If I insert the project built on Flex 2.0.1 Hotfix 3 SDK the capabilities that I need don´t work.
Please Help me because this is driving me crazy.
Thanks to everyone

Hi,
Xcelsius 2008 is built using Flex SDK 2.0.1 Hotfix 3 so that is the version of Flex SDK you have to use because it is not possible to mix and match versions of the Flex SDK in a SWF.
So to create your add-ons you cannot use any Flex 3 or Flex 4 SDK components, only Flex 2.

Matt
