Units for Crystal Width and Height adjustment Formulae ?

Hello,
Is it possible to restrict the length of a text box in crystal reports 2008 based on a value from the database (say, datafield length : 20 characters) ?
Using the 'Size and position' dialog, it is possible to set the width of the text box; however, i am unsure what units CR uses in this dialog. Is it characters, pixels , twips, etc?
If table.fieldlength = 'short or 20 characters'
then width = X units
else width = Y units
Thanks for your help !

I think you need to try something like this
if you have any field from database then in the size and position use X+2 option and write the formula like this
1440*len()
it may be a bigger in size but you need to figure out how much width it is taking for each character. May be you can get that by inserting a texbox and enter one character and adjust the size to fit perfectly without any space and see how much width it is taking. It may take for example 0.08 inch for each character. By using the formula like this
1440(0.08)len()
gives you the output.
I think there might be another solution but I hope this will help you to some extent.
I still don't understand why you want to do it for the text object as it is a databse field, you can directly drag that object on to the report then the option "Tight Horizontal" will be enabled and you can use it. If it is a static text then you can adujst the width of the textbox accordingly.

Units of parameters width and height passed in drawRect(int,int,int,int)

Units of parameters width and height passed in drawRect(int,int,int,int)

Units of parameters width and height passed in drawRect(int,int,int,int)They are just units in the User Space. Since you can change the
scale of the AffineTransform associated with your graphics object,
you can't be more specific than that.
Initially the claim is that the units are 96 per inch, but that isn't true.

Java returning incorrect values for width and height of a Tiff image

I have some TIFF images (sorry, I cannot post them b/c of there confidential nature) that are returning the incorrect values for the width and height. I am using Image.getWidth(null) and have tried the relevant methods from BufferedImage. When I open the same files in external viewers (Irfanview, MS Office Document Imaging) they look fine and report the "correct" dimensions. When I re-save the files, my code works fine. Obviously, there is something wrong with the files, but why would the Java code fail and not the external viewers? Is there some way I can detect file problems?
Here is the code, the relevant section is in the print() routine.

Figured it out. The files have a different vertical and horizontal resolutions. In this case the horizontal resolution is 200 DPI and the vertical is 100 DPI. The imgage width and height values are based on those resolution values. I wrote a section of code to take care of the problem (at least for TIFF 6.0)
 private void setPageSize(int pageNum) throws IOException
 IIOMetadata imageMetadata = _reader.getImageMetadata(pageNum);
 //Get the IFD (Image File Directory) which is the root of all the tags
 //for this image. From here we can get all the tags in the image.
 TIFFDirectory ifd = TIFFDirectory.createFromMetadata(imageMetadata);
 double xPixles = ifd.getTIFFField(256).getAsDouble(0);
 double yPixles = ifd.getTIFFField(257).getAsDouble(0);
 double xRes = ifd.getTIFFField(282).getAsDouble(0);
 double yres = ifd.getTIFFField(283).getAsDouble(0);
 int resUnits = ifd.getTIFFField(296).getAsInt(0);
 double imageWidth = xPixles / xRes;
 double imageHeight = yPixles / yres;
 //if units are in CM convert ot inches
 if (resUnits == 3)
 imageWidth = imageWidth * 0.3937;
 imageHeight = imageHeight * 0.3937;
 //convert to pixles in 72 DPI
 imageWidth = imageWidth * 72;
 imageHeight = imageHeight * 72;
 setImgWidth((int) Math.round(imageWidth));
 setImgHeight((int) Math.round(imageHeight));
 setImgAspectRatio(imageWidth / imageHeight);

How to set a minimum width and height for a stage or scene?

Hello,
Does anyone how to set a minimum width and height for a stage or scene?
I tried listening for width/height property value changes and then adjust the width/height if necessary, but that causes unpleasant flickering of the window.
In JavaFX 2.1 beta SDK for Mac OS, the Stage class has setMinWidth() and setMinHeight() functions which work very well.
I'm wondering what's the equivalent way to do that when using the FX SDK for Windows.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks.

I was wondering how to enforce a minimum stage size with JavaFX 2.0.3.The same flickering way you are currently doing it. See: http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-15200 "Need a way to set the minimum size of a window"

For uploading to a site this is the way to do it.
If you wanted to use in another application, you can drag and drop if it is supported, and then use that other application to resize. You can also set up a graphic application as an external editor.
I find it just as quick and easy to export to the desktop, then delete the photos on the desktop when I am done.

How do I save the width and height of a photo for repeated use?

How do I save the width and height of a picture for repeated use, rather than having to enter it each time in the 'new file' box?
Thanks, Ed Jackson.

It could be that I'm older and have forgotten. I'm now 73 and will admit I have forgotten many things over the years. I have been using Photoshop since Photoshop version 3. And can not really recall which features or changes were made in ever version of Photoshop I have installed. Adobe has added many features over the years. The number of bugs introduce has also greatly increased after CS3. "New Doc Sizes.psp" in your user id preferences is edited using the two buttons in the new document dialog.
As for guide lines in new documents Photoshop CS6 or CC seem to add some for video file presets with guide lines. I do not know how to edit or add guide line to new doc presets. Guide line actions are easy to create. I have also seem some guideline in new documents when I did not expect any perhaps a new bug. Photoshop like most software has bugs. If you do not see Adobe new presets perhaps you copied an old "New Doc Sizes.psp" over Adobe's newer default file or Adobe migrared you presets and wand wiped their presets out. There are bugs. Close Photoshop down and rename your current "New Doc Sizes.psp" in you user id Photoshop cc preferences folder and start Photoshop it will add a dedault "New Doc Sizes.psp" file see if you see Adobe new presets in the new doc pull down when you select video and film...

Change the width and height of Landscape Layout for a report in 10G

Hi,
I'm new to reports and when i built the report in report builder 10g, the layout orientation was 'Landscape', hence I assumed that it'll be a landscape layout.
However, the width and height fields of the main section are 11 and 20 respectively. However, the height should ideally be 8.5. When i try to change it I get the following error message :
Layout canvas must remain large enough to fit layout objects.
Could you please tell me how to change the height of this landscape layout to 8.5 from 20.
The report has several main frames within a repeating frame, since the same report has to run multiple times.
Is it possible to have a repeating page across pages (crossing the horizontal margin) and hence have some of the main frames move down to the next page. I'm trying to do this to then be able to reduce the height of the main section of the report to 8.5. Its not working though because I'm getting the following error :
REP 1814 : Report cannot be formatted. Object "vertically" can never fit R_Main (the name of the repeating frame enclosing all objects)
Thanks,
Priyanka

To reduce the Hieght, first make the layout design fit into the new value..

How to change the width and height of the visible part of the of the report

I have define a report with paper size 'Letter', orientation 'landscape' and 30 columns. Dynamically I am changing width of columns and suppressing many columns of the report.
Mostly using first 16-20 columns and others get suppressed.
Now problem is that when navigating the report thru crystal viewer, a huge blank spaces getting display on right of the report. When we take jump to some part of report thru navigation tree, the whole report gets shifted to left and only blank part is visible and it is required to scroll left.
Even printing is not working correctly.
Is there any way to change the width and height of the visible part of the report in the viewer thru .net classes? Setting the width and height of the report in Load event handler doesn't help.
Example: CrystalReportViewer1.Width = 200; - is not helping.
Is there any other solution?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Mahesh Patel

Hi Yogesh,
Your suggestion 'reportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperSize=PaperSize.PaperLedger;' along with 'PaperOrientation' setting as follow works fine. I tried to switch between Landscape and Portrait depending on report width.
reportDocument.PrintOptions.PaperOrientation = PaperOrientation.Landscape;
But problem with crystal viewer remain as it is.
While navigating report thru crystal viewer, when we take jump to some part of report thru navigation tree, the whole report gets shifted to left and it is required to scroll left.
Thanks for your very good suggestion.

[JS] Page item (rectangle frame) width and height

Following is my attempt at writing a function for width and height. It appears to work on rotated and sheared objects. Can anyone tell me if I'm on the right track?

]var myRectangleTopLeft = myRectangle.resolve(AnchorPoint.topLeftAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates, true);
var myRectangleTopRight = myRectangle.resolve(AnchorPoint.topRightAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates, true);

var d2y = (myRectangleTopLeft[0][1] - myRectangleBottomLeft[0][1]);

Dave, you are absolutely right (no surprise here) about always returning points. I'm not sure, but I think this may actually be an InDesign bug. At the end of the 'resolve' method the 'true' value is meant to indicate 'use ruler units', I believe. Having read the documentation, however, it does seem like certain transformation coordinate spaces functions only work in points.
To make this a more complete function, I've updated it to include a conversion to the current ruler units. I'm using the UnitValue object, and perhaps I'm misunderstanding something, but I cannot easily convert to a new UnitValue using the ruler measurements enumerations (it requires a string value to represent the target units). So I've had to include a switch function to get from the enumeration to the string value. Also, the UnitValue object does not seem to work with agates, and I haven't gone so far as to write my own conversion function for that, so the function has to exit with an alert if the user has agates as their ruler units.
If anyone can offer a more elegant way of dealing with this, it would be great. Or even better, some insight into why the resolve method does not seem to honour the ruler units. This _is_ getting a bit over-the-top for a simple width and height function. Maybe Adobe will consider just adding the property to the page item and putting us all (well, certainly me, anyway) out of our misery (I've put in a feature request).

Camera Image Display - changing width and height.

Ok, so I wrote this simple program, but for some reason i cant control the offsets, width and height (attributes related to the image display on front panel). When i go to MAX, i am able to change these attributes, why cant i do it in labview? Any ideas?

You need to put the width and height controls inside your loop to adjust while running.
From the image you provided, the width and height are set once outside the loop, and then you sit in the loop, so they can't be adjusted again.

How to create a map that is larger than the game in width and height?

hi,
i wounder how i can create a map(not the design) that is larger than the game in width and height, part of it will appear in the main page and anther part you can move to it after you press the arrow symbol, but the map is just one image so i want put it in line and out line the game page, and the out line part includes buttons and symbols the player can use, but it will be in line and the other part will be out line when you press the left arrow or the down arrow, how i can do that?
and is that possible to animate it so when the player press the arrow, will give it action to start the animation in one sec, i know how to animate it if that possible but i don't know which code i will use for the mouse click with the arrow symbol, and how to use the same code in the same symbol to start anther animation depending on which part of the map is on?

I don't know a lot about mask and masked layers and how to work with the normal layers beside i will use some 3D graphics but not in the background, i will explain all this to you to be more clearly.
first i am using action script 3.0
close ex,
you have 2d map"image" 900*300 pixel.
this image contains some 2d symbols when you click will go to anther normal map (anther normal layer) so they must appear.
your game 320*320 px, and the place the map will show on 300*300, and there's basics objects will be in most pages including the page that show the map so i don't know a lot about how this will work with mask layers.
so you can only see the left side of the map image and what it contains, while there's two arrows one to the left and one to the right there's three cases here,
first when it show the left side(start from x:0 to x:300), the left arrow will not active when you press and the right arrow will start an animation that make the map image move to the mid side in one sec when you press.
in mid side (start from x:301 to x:600) the same left arrow will active when you press to send you back to the left side while the same right arrow will be active to send you not to the mid side but to the right side,
when moved to the right side the same left arrow will be active to send you to the mid and the right will not active when you press and depending on that,
first how to make the large image appear with the three sides in the same place without effecting the other objects "like disappearing them" ?
and the codes i need in the same left or right arrow symbol to make different actions with the same symbol when clicked depending on which part of the map is on.

Current page (not Document) width and height with JSX

Hi,
I am trying to create a script that saves every page of the document and add its width and height to the name.
So far I managed to get the dimensions of the document using:
app.activeDocument.pages.documentPreferences.pageWidth;
app.activeDocument.pages.documentPreferences.pageHeight;
That's ok when all the pages in the document have the same dimensions (Document Preferences).
However, when I use custom pages that does not work.
I tried the code below but does not work either.
for(i=0; i<nb;i++)
 app.activeDocument.pages[i].documentPreferences.pageWidth;
 app.activeDocument.pages[i].documentPreferences.pageHeight;
I have done some research and I don't seem to find any information regarding custom pages dimensions.
Can you please help with this?
Thanks in advance,
Isko

Main();
function Main() {
 var doc = app.activeDocument,
 pages = doc.pages,
 page, width, height;
 for (var i = 0; i < pages.length; i++) {
 page = pages[i];
 width = page.bounds[3] - page.bounds[1];
 height = page.bounds[2] - page.bounds[0];
 $.writeln("Page: " + page.name + " - " + "width = " + width + ", height = " + height);
