The symbol '' changes to a square box in ODI

Hi All,
I have a query where there is a condition such as the one mentioned below:-
DECODE (mc.CURRENCY,
'','EUR',
mc.CURRENCY
When I copy Paste this code the symbol '' gets converted to a square box and the condition returns no rows.
I am able to see this symbol in Toad. But when I copy paste the same expression in SQL Developer it shows nothing.
DECODE (mc.CURRENCY,
' ','EUR',
mc.CURRENCY
Please suggest how to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Prerna

1.) Dont copy paste the symbol. Type it in
2.) If you have to use '' (empty space), then why not use NULL instead ?

How can I reference the symbol that contains the code.

I am trying to create a circle that is dynamically added to the stage.
Iwant to add all of the programatic animations in the symbol's stage but I can't figure out how to reference teh symbol itself with something I use to do in AS3 using the keyword this
For example:
- I create a symbol called Light, with a png inside
- I open it and place a series of code lines
var myW = this.width(); // how to reference the symbol from itself?
var myH = this.height();
funciton init()
     this.getSymbolElement().css("left", Math.random() * 1024);
     this.getSymbolElement().css("top", Math.random() * 768);
     this.getSymbolElement().css("scale", 1); // how to reset the scale?
     TweenMax.to(this, 2 + Math.random()*4,{opacity:0, scale:4, delay:Math.random()*10, onComplete:init});
init();
So each time the TweenMax completes the action, the symbol changes its position and resets the scale (how to reset it is another question)
After that I create the symbols with a for loop and scatter them over the stage randomly.

Thank Cindy it was dummy code typed here.
This worked perfectly! So here is how I did my PARTICLE SYSTEM:
var root = sym.getSymbolElement();
root.css("position", "absolute");
var myW = root.width();
var myH = root.height();
function init()
          var lightX = 40 + Math.random() * (1036 - 80);
          var lightY = 30 + Math.random() * 170;
          root.css("opacity", 1);
          root.css("transform","scale(0)").css("-moz-transform","scale(0)").css("-webkit-trans form","scale(0)");
          root.css("left", lightX);
          root.css("top", lightY);
          TweenMax.to(root, 0.5 + Math.random() * 1.5, {opacity:0, scale:3, delay:Math.random()*2, onComplete:init});
init();

Moving a square box freely

I am using Pages for mac for the first time
I wanted to create a simple check list document for work with a comment on the left and a little square box on the right that i may tick
the text on the left is no problem obviously...but the little box is a nightmare.....i can make it...but to align it with the line of text, i have to use the X and Y or manually
type in a number to try get it into the right position. Isn't there a way i can grab the box and just drag it to where i want it?? and then copy and paste it down??
Thanks for any advice

1. There are are Unicode check box glyphs: ☐ □ ▫︎ ◻︎ ❏ ❐ ❑ ❒ ☑︎ ☒ you can copy these from here but they are in your Special Characters
2. You can click on the box edge, see the corner handles and copy, then click into the text where you want it and paste.
3. Once it is in the Text you can adjust its position relative to the text using baseline shift
4. To position it accurately horizontally make a tab on the ruler and position the box after a preceding tab

Symbol in annotation PDF, the symbol appeared as box in edit pop up

We have received a correction with ~ symbol in annotation PDF, the symbol appeared as box in edit pop up window whereas the symbol displaying correctly in comments tab (see gsf_341.png).
Request you to analyze the reason for the different display.

That's a font issue you are seeing.
As to the reason. It would depend on the workflow used.
It could be that the original replacement text was typed in a text-editor using a particular font and then copied and pasted into the comment in Acrobat. When you copy and paste text, if the font that is applied changes it could be that the new font doesn't support particular characters, in those cases a small square box can appear.

Issue in rdf output --getting square boxes in the output

Hi All,
I am facing an issue in the report output ...
'Square box ' are getting printed in the output along with data.
Can any one of you please let me know if any one solved such issue before???
Thanks in advance....

Jana,
This is caused (as was said in one of the answers) by a frame of some kind which has a black outline. Run the Report from the Report Builder and look at the
previewer output. See where the box is in the output, go to it and change the outline to white.

Small square boxes appearing on blank lines (UPDATED) - The question is, how to get rid of them?

******* As to my display name "All I tried were in use" - when I registered at the Adobe site to use the Browser Lab, I tried something like 10 or 12 user names and finally gave up and went with "All I tried were in use" - my name is Bob
------------------------------- UPDATE --------------------
The problem, small square boxes showing on lines in Freetext Tool comments, is not limited to blank lines, as I originally reported here. These boxes are showing up at the end of every line. It does not matter if the line break is hard or soft, whether the line is empty or not.
Please read the original post bearing mind that the problem is occurring at the end of all lines.
Also - here is a screen capture of a part of one comment box, showing the square lines. I didn't show the entire box because the material above the area I'm showing is a tad private or confidential. Here is the image showing the boxes - note that there is no box at the end of the last line in the comment.
-------- Original Post ------------
We have a copy of Acrobat 5.0. and up until now it has done what we need, which is not much more than adding bookmarks, links, and some touch up. I know it is very old and I know things change. I'm hoping this has nothing to do with the release we are using. I would think this would be a backward compatibility issue if it is a problem with newer Reader versions dealing with PDFs "edited" with 5.0.
I am having small square boxes showing up on blank lines. (read my update above - the boxes are at the end of all lines, soft break or hard break))
I'm a programmer (37+ years in most all aspects of Data Processing) and I decided to learn the PHP programming "language" to add some server side processing to some of my web sites. So, I found a fairly good manual on PHP in PDF form and have been using it.
I quickly found that the PDF didn't have a single link in it and no bookmarks, so I've been adding them as I look up a particular subject. I'm also adding comments and notes to document things not in the original manual or to add comments that would help other programmers` (who know other languages) to adjust to PHPs' way of thinking - for example: in all the other languages I know (perhaps two dozen) to get rid of a file, you "delete" it. In PHP you "unlink" it.
I've added a lot of comments and notes like that and when I view the PDF in Reader (on this computer I have 9.4.2) I'm seeing small square boxes on empty lines. The lines were created when I pressed Enter twice to insert a blank line between paragraphs. (again, read the update at the top of this message - the boxes are at the end of all lines, soft break or hard break)
How can I get rid of them?
They are not present when I've got the PDF open with Acrobat, only when I'm using an Acrobat Reader.
They are also not present if I look at the comments using the Comments navigation panel - that is, they still show on the page, but they don't show in the copy of the comment displayed in the navigation panel.
They are not present in Notes or when I use one of the shape tools (Square Tool, Circle Tool, or Line Tool) to create notes. They are only present in Freetext Tool comments
They are clearly being show where there are successive line feed/carriage return characters - but how do I get rid of them?
I JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING - I realized that I'd not printed any of the pages on which I have placed comments and wondered if the boxes show when printing the PDF with Reader -- they do. They are not present if I use Acrobat, not a Reader, to print the same page.
Any assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Please don't tell me to get a newer version - an expenditure like that is simply and totally out of the picture. For us, this is a Depression, not a Recession - we are self-employed and our businesses have been severely hammered since 2006 - we are down to about 1/4 of our income before the big guys trashed the economy.

P.S. Do you know that you can have a heart attack without chest pain, shortness of breath, or left arm pain? Well, you can! I've had two and the first one nearly killed me because I had no clue it was a heart attack. You can read about it first one here. Pass this on, it could save a life.
My second heart attack occurred on October 4, 20112 - it began, around 3:15 AM, as the first one did, with a headache. It turned out the stent implanted in 2002 had been completely clogged by too much tissue grown. The doctor put another stent inside the first one.

Problem Resolved - it is a font issue. Apparently Acrobat can't handle particular fonts and it is best to stick with a very small slection of fonts - Arial, Helvetica, Times Roman.
I haven't test a lot of fonts. If I do, I'll post there results here.

How can I change the $ symbol on my keypad to an english pound symbol

How do I change the $ symbol on my keypad to an english pound symbol

You might want to go to system preferences/language and text/input sources and uncheck the box for British and check the box for US, so your keys will match what you type. If you do that, £ will be at Option/alt +3.

Changing the color of a registered trademark symbol in a logo and what is the the symbol's size?

I have a logo with the registered trademark symbol. I tried to change the color of the registered trademark symbol to the same color as the logo, using the color replacement tool but it did not work. Is there another way to change its color?
Also, I need to find out how big the registered trademark symbol is in comparison to the logo. (height, width, how far away from the logo the symbol is). How do I do this? Trying to use the Ruler tool was a disaster. As you've probably noticed, I'm very new to Photoshop.
thanks,

Depending on what colors you are working with adding a layer above the logo with the "color" layer style may work for you. This really only works if the logo is on white and the TM isn't black or white.
For Example:
Before
Paint (on a new layer) the new color
Change the layer style of that new green layer to "color"
And voila!
If you're working with a black or white TM you may just have to mask it out and make a new one with the text tool, I'm not aware of another way to change it (though I'm not the photoshop guru some of these people are =D)

Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.

My search box in the upper right side of the screen changed from Google to Ebay without intentional action on my part and I have been unable to find a way to get rid of the ebay search tool and get google back.

When I first went to do a search using the search box on the right side of the toolbar I noticed it had a different icon. It was so so small I did not recognize it as Ebay until I hit search and it was then I realized my search tool had somehow been changed. The only use my wife had made of the computer since the prior evening was to view an email from the president of a local charity sending an updated roster of officers. I did look at the user profile file and saw that it showed the profile changed as of 7:46 am which was when my wife looked at the email. I tried deleting the file but firefox would not run without it so I restored the file. Our internet security program is Avast.

Here's a simple explanation of how to fix the problem:

Can you change the colour of an 'image' bounding box?

This concerns bounding boxes not 'strokes'.
Is it possible to customise the default colour of a bounding box around an image?
I know that the default 'rectangle image frame' matches the Layer colour (eg: Layer 1 - Light Blue, with an the image bounded by a brown box) which is easily changed by moving it to another layer (eg: Layer 2 - Red, which displays an image bounding box of Cyan). What defines the colour of the bounding box of an image that is placed inside the 'rectangle image frame' and can it be changed?
I have no real necessity to change it, I just wondered if it was possible?
Steve

I'm not sure you understand the terminology.
The bounding box is an imaginary rectangle that encloses the shape of an object or group of objects. For a simple graphics frame this is the same size and shape as the frame and is poisitioned on the frame edge (and it's what you see when you select the frame). The bounding box is used for calculating object positioning. When dispalyed, it takes on the color assigned to the layer.
The frame edge is also fictitious. It's a screen display aid that can be tuned on or off to help you locate objects and also uses the color assigned to the layer. It corresponds to the path that describes the edge of the frame, so might not be rectangular (a bounding box is always rectangular).
The stroke is an attribute assigned to the path describing the perimeter of a closed object or the path itself of an open path. Stokes can be assigned a weight, color, and stroke style such as dotted or striped.
An image placed inside a frame has it's own bounding box, but not a frame edge or stroke. To see the image bounding box use the direct select tool to select the image inside the frame. If you crop an image so it is larger than the containing frame, or or enlarge the frame so the image does not completely fill it, you can see the differnce between the bounding boxes very easily. The color of the image bounding box is also tied to the layer color and is not editable by the user.

Create an Action: insert square box in a corner of the images

Hello!
I have a problem with the Actions of Photoshop, I wish you can help me: I need to put a square box (or a point, some kind of mark) in the corner of the bottom-left in hundreds of images, so I think an Action is the best way to do it but I don't know how can I do it, because I need that the mark can adapt itself to the size of each image: it have to be the 5% of the size of the original image. And it has to be a square shape, not a rectangle.
I hope you can understand me, my English is not as good as it would be... thank you very much for your attention and your advice!
Best regards!

I have used part of an old script I made some time ago which was created to place a logo on another image.
Using this I can place a square box shape which is 5% of the longside dimension of an image in the bottom left corner. In the example shownbelow, the box solid black and is 50 pixels from bottom and side.
I used a rectangular shape layer for the box.
If this is anything like what might be useful to you, I can let you have a copy of the script. I can probably modify the script a little if this isn't exactly what you are looking for.

Hello Zeno Bokor!
Thank you for your answer, that's exactly what I have done this morning in my job, but it have a problem that I don't know how to fix: the mark that I want to insert is not square, because if the image is very high, for example, the mark become a rectangle (not a square). Do you know how to fix this?
Thank you all for your attention!
Best regards!

IPhoto: No pictures only broken-line/square boxes where pictures should be. Scanning with the bar slide the pics appear for one or two seconds then are gone.

Grandson Son sabataged my IPhotos! Can't get pics to appear. Only broken-line/square boxes where the pictures should be. Scrolling with side bar brings up pics for 1 or 2 seconds then they are gone again. HELP! Please....

Restore from your back up is the most obvious way forward.
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work
