Tiny hand-made extension for Mavericks, how-to/what-with?

Tiny hand-made extension for Mavericks, how-to/what-with?
We need one small extension in Mavericks.
The goal and prerequisites are described below.
Preferable on script basis.
The question how the goals can be achieved and by use of which Mavericks on-board tools?
Extension's UI available in system menu (preferable the context menu while in a Finder window).
Script conducts on invocation following operations:
- create a new text file in folder of current Finder window
- file name can be fixed programmed in script
- add to the file name appropriate postfix if file already exists
- inject into file a string which is fixed-coded in the script
- inject in file's next line the clipboard content
It is in user's responsibility to ensure the clipboard content is a text
- save file changes to disk
- close the file
- Optionally ask user for file name

In iMovie 10.1 for Mavericks, how do I output in .mov format?

In iMovie 10.1 for Mavericks, how do I export a movie in .mov format?

Thanks Pieter. It looks like streamclip might work albeit a bit messier. It is very disappointing that the latest iMovie does not seem to be able to directly output to the .mov file format.
It looks like going back to the previous version of iMovie might be the best choice.
Regarding your curiosity, I am submitting a slide show for a theatre presentation. The rules state:
Slideshows must be submitted as single video files in .MOV format. Any slideshows submitted in a different format will be rejected.

Initial setup of corporate phones for Intune - how to deal with initial account required

Hi,
I'm running an Intune trial and have a question about new phones for corporate users - I find it irritating that a Microsoft account or an AppleID is needed to download the company portal app. For example the Nokia 935 with Windows 8.1 doesn't allow
me to sign in to the Windows store using my corporate Office 365 account, if I proceed without a Microsoft account to the store and try to install the company portal app, I get an error message about "My Family setup is needed" first.
I'm thinking of creating a Ms or Apple account for each user and use that to enrol their devices, but that doesn't seem ideal. Ideally I just want to deploy the Company portal app.
What's the recommended approach?
Thanks

I understand what you mean, but in this case the application installation is not the issue, it's signing up for an Apple ID that's the issue. Here's an example of questions that come up, keep in mind these are company owned phones:
It's asking for a credit card, what do I do? (I know that usually there's an option of none, but sometimes there's not)
What should I put for address and phone numbers?
This is a company phone, why is it asking for my best friend in second grade?
I already have a personal Apple ID, should I use that on my corporate owned phone?
What's my password?
What's my username?
I don't want Apple to have my email address, why are you making me do this?
I don't have time for this, why is this taking so long (enrolling an iOS device in Intune is very easy and quick, signing up for an Apple ID can be complex and difficult for an older person that can barely use a computer)

Last question for today - how to draw with API circle of N pixels radius

Hi,
While I'm bit of exhausted while fighting with those paths movement (see my other thread in this forum) - I'd like to ask maybe someone has code snippet, which shows how to draw a circle of N pixels/N mm/inches radius?
There is one helper function for that inside SDK samples:
PDEPath DrawCurve(ASFixed x, ASFixed y, ASFixed x1, ASFixed y1, ASFixed x2, ASFixed y2, ASFixed x3, ASFixed y3, int lineWidth, int r, int g, int b)
but I'm just out of my mind for today what parameters should be provided and how many calls of it I should write.
Any help would be appreciated.

You call it four times...
Here is a snippet that explains the math...
/* 4/3 * (1-cos 45)/sin 45 = 4/3 * sqrt(2) - 1 */
#define ARC_MAGIC ((ASFixed) 0.552284749)
#define PI ((ASFixed)3.141592654)
void DrawCircle( ASFixed inCenterX, ASFixed inCenterY, ASFixed inRadius )
/* draw four Bezier curves to approximate a circle */
MoveTo( inCenterX + inRadius, inCenterY );
CurveTo( inCenterX + inRadius, inCenterY + inRadius*ARC_MAGIC,
inCenterX + inRadius*ARC_MAGIC, inCenterY + inRadius,
inCenterX, inCenterY + inRadius );
CurveTo( inCenterX - inRadius*ARC_MAGIC, inCenterY + inRadius,
inCenterX - inRadius, inCenterY + inRadius*ARC_MAGIC,
inCenterX - inRadius, inCenterY );
CurveTo( inCenterX - inRadius, inCenterY - inRadius*ARC_MAGIC,
inCenterX - inRadius*ARC_MAGIC, inCenterY - inRadius,
inCenterX, inCenterY - inRadius );
CurveTo( inCenterX + inRadius*ARC_MAGIC, inCenterY - inRadius,
inCenterX + inRadius, inCenterY - inRadius*ARC_MAGIC,
inCenterX + inRadius, inCenterY );
Close();

Realization of a extension for Safari

Hi all, in the realization of a extension for Safari, how can I access with end scripts to SafariExtensionSettings?!

Mr. Davis answer is essentially what that extension did. I thank Mr. Davis for this answer as I was not aware of this method. I only brought this up becasue in Lion there is a nasty habit of Safari opening all previous tabs that where not closed when shuting down the computer. This can cause a long delay in opening Safari becasue of all the tabs opening up. The "close all tabs" exstension stopped all this opening process. I have to assume that Apple replaced the extension with the process that Mr. Davis describes, however, the extension was a lot faster. By the way, I have this extension still and I still use it. I just wanted to pass it on to some other users, but guess I will have to give up on that idea.

How to download iPhoto for Mavericks?

After a clean install of OS X 10.9 Mavericks on my Mac Mini, I went to the Mac App Store to download iPhoto. It says I can't, because iPhoto 9.6 requires OS X 10.10. Yosemite.
Upgrading to Yosemite is not an option.
Fine, and how do I get iPhoto for Mavericks now?
Thanks for any hint!

After a clean install of OS X 10.9 Mavericks on my Mac Mini,
Which version did you have previously? The same system version?
Did you previously have iPhoto '11 installed on your Mini with Mavericks? Then restore iPhoto from your backup you made before you wiped the drive.

How to create an extension for generated type idoc

Hi all,
Can u please look into this
How to create an extension for generated type idoc ? for example Idoc type BATMAS02

Enter transaction WE30 (ALE->Extension-> IDOC types->Maintain Idoc type)
- Type in your name of the extended IDOC type (usually starting with 'Z') and click on the Basic IDoc type, click the create icon.
- Click on Create new and enter a description and press enter.
- Click on ZIDOCTYPE01 and then on the Create icon.
- Enter ZIDOCTYPE as the segment type, click on Segment Editor.
- Enter a description for your segment type and create.
- Enter a description for your segment, enter each field required in your IDoc and press enter to validate.
- Save and generate, press back
- To release the segment choose Goto, Release from the menu.
- Check the box on the line of your segment.
- Save, back and enter.
- Your Idoc type structure should be displayed with your new segment.
- Save and back.
- To release the Idoc type choose Extras, Release type from the menu and Yes.
ALE FUNCTION MODULE ENHANCEMENTS
Having extended the IDOC type to contain additional fields for an inbound or outbound application, you now want to enhance ALE function modules for populating the additional segment on the outbound or applying the additional segment data on the inbound application.
The core working code for ALE processes for a given application area is always encapsulated in ABAP/4 function modules. These function modules are associated with such control information as message types and process codes. So the ALE process checks this control information and derives the name of the function module to invoke for that particular IDOC processing from certain database tables. These function modules contain objects known as customer functions, which can be considered SAP Enhanced user exits. A function module is called at a particular point during the processing of the main program or function module, and it can be used to influence data processing at that point by adding code to the customer function. The customer function behaves like a normal function module and has import and export parameters, tables (internal tables) statement, and exception processing. Unlike a conventional user exit, customer functions give you the ability to modify only data available to you by the function moduleâs parameters and internal tables. While most ALE/EDI function modules are supported by customer functions, there are ALE/EDI processes that still use conventional user exits. There are a few ways to determine which function module to enhance for a given message type/process code:
For master data distribution, from SALE go to Extensions -> Master data distribution -> Setup additional data for message types. Search for message type DEBMAS in this example. You see an entry for DEBMAS associated with function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DEBMAS. This data is stored on table TBDME. The function module names for all master data message types follow this pattern: MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_messagetype. This function module calls another function module of name MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS or MASTERIDOC_CREATE_messagetype. Search for the words customer function, and you find several hits that can be used to add code to the function module.
From WEDI got to Control -> Inbound process codes -> Inbound with ALE service -> Processing by function module (transaction WE42), or from WEDI go to Control -> Outbound process codes -> Outbound with ALE service -> With function module (transaction WE41). There will be function modules associated with the process codes. For inbound, the function modules usually follow this pattern: IDOC_INPUT_messagetype: for example, IDOC_INPUT_CHRMAS for inbound characteristics master.
Use transaction WE57 or from WEDI go to Development -> Message/Application Object. The entries list the function module, Business Object, message type, and IDOC type that are used for inbound ALE/EDI interfaces.
Customer functions are not specific only to ALE and EDI but also to all programs/modules in SAP R/3. Customer function is a SAP enhancement component; the other two types are menu and screen enhancements.
All customer function exits are maintained in SAP enhancements and are found by using transaction SMOD. After executing transaction SMOD, pull down (F4) on the enhancement name field, and execute again. This provides you with a list of all SAP enhancements available. SAP enhancements are grouped by development class pertaining to an application area. Choose Application development R/3 SD master data distribution for development class VSV to lead to a screen that lists VSV00001 as an enhancement (see Figure 5). Press Component +/- to display its function exit components. There are four possible components listed, all of which are function exits (and are function modules) that are called from the ALE function modules in the form Call Customer Function Î001â. This is a special occurrence of the ABAP statement Call. Go to item Exit_SAPLVV01_ 001, which you need to enhance for the Customer Master outbound example of an IDOC extension. In the ALE-function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS, the statement CALL Customer Function 001 is translated in the background to call component EXIT_SAPLVV01_001. Although this function exit can be edited using transaction SE37, you will use a simpler approach.
When you use SAP enhancements and their components, you manage them with an SAP object known as a project, which is like an envelope containing the selected enhancements and their components. A project can be used to control the execution of components and to transport them to other clients and instances in SAP. Basically, the process involves creating a project, including enhancements and components that are to be enhanced, editing the components, and then activating the project. The following process creates a project for our example Customer Master IDOC extension:
Execute transaction CMOD.
Enter name of project, say CSTMAST1.
Click on Create.
Enter a description of the project.
Save.
Click on SAP Enhancements.
Enter VSV00001 for Enhancement.
Save.
Once youâve created the project, edit the function exit components and activate the project. Remember that the code in the function exit enhancement will execute only if the project is activated. In fact, this is a convenient SAP enhancements feature, whereby the work in progress (developing code in the customer function) will not affect users of that application. When the code is completed, the project can be activated so the enhanced functionality takes effect. It can also be deactivated for maintenance.
As mentioned earlier, customer functions (function exits) are embedded in ALE function modules and can be used to influence the creation and modification of IDOC data on an outbound application or to post additional or modified IDOC data to an inbound R/3 application. Function exits are similar to regular function modules, with import/export parameters, tables (internal tables), and exceptions.
The two important factors to consider while developing the customer function are:
1. The point in the ALE function module where the function exit occurs
2. The data made available by the customer function that can be modified or posted to the R/3 application, based on the direction.
Because some function modules have several customer functions, it is critical to choose the function exit best suited for that particular enhancement. Do not attempt to perform activities that the function exit is not designed for. The importance of this point is illustrated by the following description of enhancing function modules for outbound and inbound ALE interfaces.
Outbound interfaces. In an outbound ALE interface you use function exits (customer functions) to populate additional segments created by an IDOC extension or to modify the existing IDOC data segments as per business requirements. Previously, you identified that enhancement VSV00001 has a component EXIT_SAPLVV01_001 (function exit), which can be used for populating the additional data segment Z1SADRX that you created in the IDOC extension ZDEBMASX (IDOC type ZDEBMASZ, based on Basic IDOC type DEBMAS02). You also learned that the ALE function module that calls this function exit is MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS, which has a statement Call Customer Function 001.
Browse the function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS using transaction SE37. You will find that this customer function is invoked for every segment of IDOC type DEBMAS02. In fact, the function exit is called soon after the creation of an existing segment has been populated with data and appended to the IDOC data table (internal table). Also, the function exit is exporting the message type, IDOC type, and the segment name and is importing the IDOC extension type. It is also passing the IDOC data internal table. This indicates that the ALE function module is allowing you to populate additional segments for every existing segment and modify the existing segmentâs data.
Letâs write ABAP/4 code to accomplish the task of populating IDOC segment Z1SADRX with a contact personâs business address:
From SE37, display function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_ DEBMAS.
Find Customer Function 001.
Double-click on 001.
The function EXIT_SAPLVV01_001 will be displayed.
Double-click on INCLUDE ZXVSVU01.
You will be asked to create a new include object. Proceed as desired.
Enter code (as in Listing 1).
Be sure to perform a main program check (Function Module -> Check -> main program) and extended program check (Function module -> Check -> Extended check).
Now that you have extended the IDOC and enhanced the ALE function module based on the requirements for the contact personâs business address on the Customer Master, letâs test the interface. You should create a logical system and define a port for this interface. You should also configure the Customer Distribution Model to indicate that message type DEBMAS is being distributed to this logical system. The only difference in configuration between a regular outbound ALE interface and an enhanced one is the partner profile definition. While maintaining the outbound parameters of the partner profile, make sure the IDOC type is ZDEBMASZ. The fields for Basic IDOC type and extension type are automatically populated with DEBMAS02 and ZDEBMASX, respectively.
To maintain the contact personâs business address of a customer:
Use transaction BD12 or from BALE go to Master Data ->Customer -> Send and send that Customer Master record by executing the transaction after filling in the relevant fields such as customer number, message type, and logical system.
Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to verify the IDOC created. You should see the new segment Z1SADRX populated with the correct data.
With SAP releases below 4.5B, you cannot capture changes to business address through change pointers because a change document object is not available for capturing business address changes, and also earlier releases have not been configured to write change documents for a contact personâs business address. If you would like this functionality, you can either create change document objects, generate function modules to create change documents, and perform ALE configuration to tie it in, or make a cosmetic change to the contact person screen data while changing the contact personâs business address so that it gets captured as a change to the Customer Master. Subsequently, the ALE enhancement that you performed captures the contact personâs business address.
Inbound interfaces. The process for enhancing inbound ALE interfaces is similar for outbound, with a few exceptions; specifically in the coding of customer functions (function exits) for the ALE/EDI function modules.
The first step is to create an IDOC extension for the specific Basic IDOC type by adding new segments at the appropriate hierarchy level: that is, associated to the relevant existing segment. Populate the data fields on the new segments with application data by the translator or external system/program before importing them into the R/3 System. Then, find the ALE function module that is invoked by the inbound processing. By browsing through the code or reading the documentation on the function exit enhancements using the SMOD transaction, identify the function exit in which you should place your code. The technique used in the code to post the additional or modified IDOC data to the application can vary based on the application rules and requirements, the data available at that point in processing, and the application function modules available to update the application tables. It is important to search first for application modules that process the data and see if they can be called within the function exit. If the additional data in the extended segments in specific to a custom table or resides in nonkey fields of a single or small set of tables, you may be able to update it directly by SQL statements in the function exit. This approach should be carefully evaluated and is certainly not highly recommended.
Another option is to use Call Transaction from within the function exit to process the additional data. For example, in the case of message type WMMBXY for inbound goods movements from a warehouse management system, the standard interface creates batches for materials, but does not update its characteristics. In such a case, you can use Call Transaction MSC1 to create the batch and assign characteristic values to it from within the function exit provided.

How to Package Photoshop Extension for cs4/cs5 with manifest.xml

Hello,
tl;dr: How can I package my extension for both cs4 and cs5 in a way that respects the extension's window geometry?
I have a panel that specifies window geometry in it's manifest.xml. When the panel is installed into Photoshop's panels/ folder, the geometry gets ignored, so I'm trying to package the panel as an extension to be installed via the Extension Manager. I have run into different problems for each CS version. I've read quite a few pdfs about the Extension Manager, UCF command line packaging, etc, and have not been able to find a solution that works for both platforms.
My understaning
My trial and error research has lead me to understand that the extension's files must eventually end up in the (mac) /Library/Application Support/Adobe/<CSversion>ServiceManager/extensions/ directory. In CS5, if the extension's folder contains a manifest.xml file (ex: /extensions/GuideGuide/CSXS/manifest.xml) that specifies window geometry, Photoshop will respect that window geometry when the panel opens. However, in CS4, this is not enough. From my tests, Photoshop CS4 doesn't seem to do anything with the manifest.xml file. Instead, I had to modify /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS4ServiceManager/ServiceManifest.xml and add my extension to it's contents. Once I did this, Photoshop CS4 launches my panel and respects it's window geometry.
The problem with this is that it's a manual installation. I can't ask my users to dig around in their system files to install my panel. In addition, since it's unsigned using this method, it won't work if they're not flagged for debugging. I've started exploring using the Extension Manager, but I have run into problems that I cannot find ansers in the few pdfs about packaging that I've been able to find.
CS5 Problems
If I use the UCF command line tool, I can package and sign my file. It installs fine and does what I want. However, using this method, I haven't been able to find a way to specify the author and description that shows up in the Extension Manager.
CS4 Problems
The UCF command line tool doesn't appear to make packages that can be installed by CS4, and I haven't been able to find one that is compatable. I've had to result to using the Extension Manager to package my extension based on a .mxi file. The problem I have here is that installing files this way limits me to putting them in the /panels directory, which then causes the panel to ignore the indow geometry. Is there a way with an .mxi file to install in the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/<CSversion>ServiceManager/extensions/ directory and modify the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS4ServiceManager/ServiceManifest.xml file?
There must be, because Kuler and other extensions are installed there.
Thank you SO much for any help you might provide. I've spent weeks trying to get this to work and have run into nothing but dead ends and wild goose chases.

Your extension is a CSXS extension. For CSXS extension it's introduced in Extension Manager 2.1. (You can download Extension manager 2.1 from http://www.adobe.com/exchange/em_download/em20_download.html)
In Extension Manager CS2.1 only MXP package is supported. In Extension Manager CS5 CSXS extension must be packaged by ZXP format. So you have to generate two packages for CS4(mxp) and CS5(zxp)
For CS5, you can use ucf.jar to generate the zxp package.
For CS4, you have to create an MXI file and package it by Extension Manager 2.1 to mxp package. Here is a sample CSXS mxi file:

You may have to log in as the Administrator user rather than
"run as adminstrator".
Beyond that, are there really enough users on a system that
they can't install the extension(s) they need themselves?
