Trying to format a 'height' field

Hi all! I am trying to display a single quotation mark in order to correctly display a 'height' field (ie: 5'8"). Can't get it to work no matter what display pattern I try. Best I can do is 5"8 which is totally wrong of course.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

Hi,
To get the single quote you need to use two together and then wrap them in quotes, so four all together, try;
text{9''''9"}

How to format a numeric field in ES2 ?

Hi...
I'm trying to format a numeric field in LiveCycle designer using six digit and allowing zero's "000000"…
I went to patterns for setting the format, unfortunately I couldn't know how figure it out?
I’ve tried this pattern: null{}|zero{000000}|num.integer{}
It didn’t work!
what actually I’m looking for is six digit at all time for instance if enter value of 1 in the field expect to appear 000001 ,and if i enter value 567 the appearance will be 000567 in the field and so on...etc.
Another issue is how to validate a range of numeric value like 000001-999999 so that the input will be only restricted by those values…
Hope this is clear! And sorry for my bad English
Best Regards...

Hi,
could you please share your solution?
I have a similar problem. I need to allow zeros before my integers to be inputed to the form.
thanks.

Formatting a date field

I am trying to format a date field so that it shows as 06/29/2005 instead of 06/29/2005 00:00:00. Im thinking that I need to use the Substr function to do this but cant get it to work. Here is what I have, @(Substr(REQUIRED_DATE,1,10)). Any help would be great.

The field is set up as a text field. From what I have read in Help, $date20 is for when you want to make a field be the system date. I want to change the format of a date that is being pulled from my database. Can I use the $date20 function for this? Thanks

Formatting A Percentage Field

I am trying to format a text field to produce a percentage. Currently when I input 50 into the field, it produces 50.00% (rather than 50%). I am using a javascript that another member recommended, but I would like to know how I can remove the 2 decimal places.
I am currently using the following document-level JavaScript:
function percentKeystroke() {
AFNumber_Keystroke(2, 0, 0, 0, "", false);
function percentFormat() {
event.value = util.printf("%.2f%", event.value);
Along with the following for the custom format and keystroke scripts for the field:
// Custom Format script
percentFormat();
// Custom Keystroke script
percentKeystroke();
Thanks in advance for your help!

I am trying to use the above script to format a field so the end result will be the percent value and the percent symbol. The user needs to be able to enter values of 0%-100%.
If I use the percent option it requires the user enter the value as a decimal other wise 50% enters as 5000% and trying to explain this to my client is useless.
For now the field has no format. so it takes numbers and letters.
I tried the script above but it leaves the field with no formatting, is allowing letters, and the user still needs to enter the %.
Any sugguestions.
Thanks

Reinstall Snow Leopard. Or you can try to extract it from the DVD.
How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in
       the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go
       to Folder. In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.)
Click on the "Go" button ..... • Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1.          In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b.          or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3.          In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4.          On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5.          Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
          20 files were scanned. 20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk. 0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package. 0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6.          Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7.          In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8.          If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9.          In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10.          If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11.          Type in your password, click “OK”
Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12.          In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes:          Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
• Stop
• Leave original alone
• Update .....
• Default selection
• Replace .... (Replace option should only be used on full install packages)

Kindly help me on this.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change date format for ‘Created’ field in the getVersions web service.
Per my knowledge, you can get the date format for ‘Created’ field as “MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm a”.
For more information, you can refer to:
Versions.GetVersions Method (Versions)

How to format a calculated field using JSTL

Hi,
I have one field as following:
<input type="text" class="fixedInput" name="grossRevenue<%=i%>" value="<%=((LineOfBusinessMetrics)lineOfBusinessMetricsList.get(i)).getGrossRevenue().setScale(2,BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP)%>" size="16" onfocus="this.blur()" /></td>
In the above line of code, I have one list called lineOfBusinessMetricsList. From this list, I am fetching the object of LineOfBusinessMetrics, from this object, I am fetching the value of Gross Revenue and casting it to LineOfBusinessMetrics.
Now I am trying to format the Gross Revenue using JSTL tag "fmt" as following:
<td class="grey3"><input type="text" class="fixedInput" name="<c:out value='grossRevenue${i}'/>" value="<fmt:formatNumber type="number" value='${lineOfBusinessMetricsList.grossRevenue}' minFractionDigits="2" maxFractionDigits="2" />" size="16" onfocus="this.blur()" /></td>
The above modified code wth JSTL tag fmt is not working correctly.
Can anyone help me to get this code work.
Thanks in Advance,
Vijay

[SOLVED] Format unbound selectInputDate field to "MM-dd-yyyy"

I'm trying to format an unbound inputDate field to a different format. For entity-bound fields it's easy, they seem to inherit the format from the entity.
I expected to be able to specify a format using this but it doesn't seem to work:
<af:convertDateTime pattern="MM-dd-yyyy"/>
What am I missing?

I posted too soon... it worked after I compiled. I thought the JSF would get picked up at runtime in JDev.
<f:convertDateTime pattern="MM-dd-yyyy" type="date" dateStyle="short"/>

Create Height field from 3D point cloud

Hello,
There is a VI called: Create Height Field.vi to craete surface to 3D picture control.
"Converts a 2D array of values to a 3D height field and applies the height field to a 3D object that appears in a 3D scene."
This should be perfect for me ( this function interpolates the whole surface) but, I have 3D [x,y,z] point cloud, where the coordinates are not equally spaced. As I understad this VI can display point cloud with equidistant coordinates. How can I use this tool to display my data?
I have tried the Create Mesh.vi to display my point cloud, but I really need the interpolated surface also. Could you give me some guide points where and how to do now?
Thanks in advance,

Hi D60!
Sorry for the late reply.
Is your problem still unsolved?
If yes, I searched for some examples that use the Create Height Field VI.
I only found one example code on Community: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-4765
If your data points are not sampled on the same rate, you could use interpolation, to reach the same length.
I guess the easiest way is to use the Mathscript node for this, like in this eaxmple: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361F-01/lvtextmath/msfunc_interpolate/
Or this VI could be used for the same purpose: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/gmath/interpolate_2d/
Please let me know, if my suggestions helped. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to post them.

The value entered does not match the format of the field

I am trying to do a simple division of profit by sales to find the profit %. Here is the script I am using and it doesn't work.
var v1 = +getField("Profit%").value;
var v2 = +getField("Contract1").value;
event.value = v2 !== 0 ? v1 / v2 : "";
I continue to get the error The value entered doesnot match the format of the field
I have attached the file. Can someone help

Are you very sure?
Using
var v1 = 0.05; // "Profit%"
var v2 = 100000; // "Contract1"
v1 / v2; // result of division;
5e-7
That is 5 * 10 exponent -7 or 0.00000005
Set the format to "None"
Also so please post the values you are using.

What am I doing wrong when trying to create a floating field?

I am trying to create a floating field that is 'connected' to a global Text field. To my opinion I followed all instructions as in the help file, but it doesn't seem to work. Anyhow, the information I type in the text field does not pop-up in the text. I have setup the floating field as follows:
Type = Text field
Appearance = none (I do not want a box or something around the text)
Field format = plain text
Presence = hidden (excluded from layout)
Value = calculated (read only); I have tried all other options too, but nothing seem to work
Calculation script
Binding = global (and name is the name as used for the text field)
I have used another text field that is connected to the same text field as referred to above and that works just fine.
What am I doing wrong?
Can anyone help me out here?
Thanks!

If anyone is following this thread, I found the solution to my problem where the Floating Fields did not work. BTW, I am using LiveCycle Designer ES 4.
Under Form Properties/Defaults, you need to change "Choose Target Version" to "Adobe and Adobe Reader 9.1 or later". Save the change, and floating fields should work now.

Formating a SUM-Field

Hi,
I want to format a number. When I format a normal field, it works.
expression: <?GEHALT_MON11?>
formatmask (MS): #.##0,00 €;(#.##0,00 €)
But when I format a SUM-Field, it does not work. The result is not formatted.
<?sum(current-group()//GEHALT_MON11)?>
formatmask (MS): #.##0,00 €;(#.##0,00 €)
I alternatively tried formating with the oracle formatmasks - it also didn't work on the SUM-Field.
Why?
thank you,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,
To use the Oracle format mask or the Microsoft format mask, the numbers in your data
source must be in a raw format, with no formatting applied (for example: 1000.00). If the
number has been formatted for European countries (for example: 1.000,00) the format
will not work.
If you want to use Oracel format-mask , use this
<?format-number:sum(TOTAL_PAID_DAYS_AMOUNT);’999G990D00’?>
I think better , you can put the part of xml here

Disk utility reports "Device could not be opened" - error when trying to format a new drive in a Mac Pro 1,1

MacPro 1,1 Quadcore 3 GHz (2006 "Woodcrest")
32 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 5770
OS X 10.7.5 Lion
I have encountered the following behavior when trying to format a new drive with disk utility. This description has also been send via the Mac Pro feedback as a bug report to Apple.
On searching the web and forums with this particular error message and behaviour I could not find any usful results. So maybe the following description may be helpful for some users.
Best regards.
1. Drive Bay 1 contains the original 250 GB Startupdisk. It works without errors.
2. Drive Bays 3 and 4 contain each a WD Caviar Black 2 TB SATA 3 HDD. They work without errors.
3. I have purchased a third WD Caviar Black 2 TB HDD.
4. In Drive Bay 2 there has been a Seagate 750 GB HDD, which worked in conjunction with all the other drives without error.
5. I exchanged the Seagate HDD in Drive Bay 2 with the new WD Caviar Black 2 TB HDD.
6. On starting the system, it will report to initialize the new drive.
7. On trying to initialize the new drive with disk utility it reports the error [translated from German] "Erasing of the volume has failed. The device could not be opened."
8. I thought that the drive is faulty. Thus I created an RMA-Case at WD. They exchanged the drive without problems.
9. On getting the exchanged WD Caviar Black 2 TB drive I put it in Drive Bay 2 as before.
10. On trying to erase and format the exchange drive I got the same error message "Drive could not be opened."
10.1 On selecting the physical drive in the devices list, disk utility reports all information in the bottom area of its window as usual, e. g. hard disk description, connection bus, type and place, capacity, write status, SMART-status, partition scheme.
10.1 On leaving that drive selected in the devices list and clicking the info-button, disk utility will also report additional information as usual, e. g. Name, Type, partition scheme, media-identification, media name, media type, device tree, … , number of relocated sectors, etc.. All this information appears to be valid, as can be compared to the other devices information inside the other Drive Bays. Also the disk numbering scheme appears to be standard - 4 HDDs give the numbering disk0, disk1, disk2, disk3.
10.2 From that information I conclude that the SATA-bus and connectors electrically work properly, the drive has spun up and can be accessed by the system normally.
11. I powered down the computer, took out the HDDs from Drive Bays 3 and 4 and put the caddy with the new exchange drive in Drive Bay 4 [Maybe, I could have also just left it alone in Drive Bay 2, or 3].
12. After powering on the system, disk utility will quick format the exchange drive without any error message. Also, when erasing again by selecting the option to write zeros to the drive, disk utility will finish without error.
13. After disk utility finished formatting, I put back the original drives into Drive Bay 3 and 4 and put the now newly formatted drive back into Drive Bay 2.
14. After switching on the computer the system start and login proceeds without any error message. All drives appear as expected on the desktop.

If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

Format of Date field is loading wrongly in the Infocube 0pp_c01.

Hi,
Format of Date field is loading wrongly in the Infocube 0pp_c01. But it is loading properly into PSA.
I am loading data into PP infocubes from the following DataSources.(they all are 3.x datasources)
1. 2LIS_04_P_MATNR
2. 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL
3. 2LIS_04_P_COMP
The data is coming properly upto PSA. For example Actual Start date is loaded in cube like 733.884.
And, it is the same issue with all the cubes. So I checked the update rules. But, in it the mapping is done properly.
Thanks $ Regards
Shyne Sasimohanan
+91-9632674245

Hi,
HEre also value is loaded correctly. The reason u are seeing it in this format is because it is mapped into a key figure in the info cube.
It will store the value as number of days from a standard date like 1/1/1000 or 1/1/1900 - not sure which one of these, u should be able to search and find the correct date in the forums..but this is the logic behind it
Hope it helps.
