Updating Graphic from which MCs are made nukes MCs.

Flash CS5
I have a graphic that has been imported to lib, it features spots each with a line of text, all converted to path beforehand. I drag drop to stage and resize smaller. I then have made movie clips of each spot and its associated text .
I now realise the  text is too small on stage
I redraw the graphic at source with larger text and save it by the same name. Import it to lib choosing to replace item. The existing artwork on my stage vanishes and an edit undo wont bring it back. Even the stage seems to change size.
I try a simple experiment.
File new (let this be file#1) and make a green circle, convert it to graphic, call it greencircle and set it to x 0 y0
Copy this graphic from lib to clipboard
File new (let this be file#2) and paste this greencircle to lib, drag drop to stage and make it red, set it to x0 y0
Make it a movieclip call it redcircle
Return to file #1 and make the green circle purple.
Copy paste the graphic greencircle to lib of file #2, chose replace existing.
The red circle vanishes.
when I try that again the red circle goes  purple. Twice though before it vanished, even if the red circle was made a graphic not an MC.
I am sure graphics have updated on stage when updated in libs, so why the vanishing act, which I was able to replicate initially with a simple test but now I cant, the graphic that matters though still refuses to update. If I paste the small text graphic into a new files lib and drag drop to stage, then paste into that lib the updated graphic, selecting update, it updates on stage.

Try saving your xfl to fla and making the changes you need, then changing it back.  I think you get into a wonky situation with xfl where the directories created to represent your library assets get into a very strange state. And consider using version control.

  • Which photos are made from my Iphone? I cannot distinguish them in the gallery.

    Hello,
    I have that problem, I cannot distinguish which photos in the gallery are made from my Iphone. All of them, whattsap and photos from other Iphones are mixed in the menu, sorted by date. There is a way to see only my photos???
    Thanks for helping!!!

    Yes, you would need to launch iTunes then select your iPhone in the left window the click on the photos tab.  Click the drop down box labeled sync photos from and select iPhoto. 

  • Distribute the costs of telephone and water which payments are made monthly

    Dear All  Real Estate Specialist:
    In a building structure where we have identified the keys to proration, however the payment of expenses for telephone and water are made from a single measurement, therefore the payment is made through direct debit.
    How to identify this payment in FI? How could identify the number of the contract document for payment made? and then ... how to capture the payment information in order to make the distribution of that spending from the keys generated in the apportionment RE.
    Best Regards

    Okay, I think I got it...
    You lower your software TCO and increase the ROI by signing a "warm lease" for it, where the amenities are included at a flat rate.
    Then after the install, you open the taps, turn on all the lights and sub-lease the phone back to a call center of your own?

  • Automatically update a 'Last Updated By' field when changes are made a database record.

    Basically I'm building a database app using mySQL and PHP.
    I'm from a design background, rather than a techie one, so I'm far
    more comfortable using the DW and phpMyAdmin parts, but less so
    with any code.
    We want to have a 'Last Updated By' field that automatically
    populates with whoever created or last edited a record.
    What's the best way of achieving this?
    I've looked at some mySQL stuff, but all looks a bit over my
    head to be honest. Have a table of Users in phpMyAdmin - not one as
    part of the database, but under privileges - so where 'root' is,
    plus another couple I've added.
    In the web directory, I just have a standard connection file
    that looks like :
    <?php
    # FileName="Connection_php_mysql.htm"
    # Type="MYSQL"
    # HTTP="true"
    $hostname_connDevelopments = "localhost";
    $database_connDevelopments = "developments";
    $username_connDevelopments = "root";
    $password_connDevelopments = "password";
    $connDevelopments =
    mysql_pconnect($hostname_connDevelopments,
    $username_connDevelopments, $password_connDevelopments) or
    trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR);
    ?>
    But how do I do it so that people log in to the database?
    Alternatively, can I just use DW's log in (ie log in to
    particular pages, rather than users log in to the database, using
    database privileges?
    And from there have a hidden field in my insert and update
    pages that's set to the current user, and that value can then be
    inserted in the table?
    Any help or pointers with this greatly appreciated.
    Cheers.

    Thanks David. That sounds about right - the last app I did
    was an online photo library, and used the Log In stuff for that.
    With this one, we want to track changes, as we'll follow the
    progress of the developments from early info right through to
    completion - hence last updated, and last updated by fields.
    So I figured it should be do-able as an extension of the log
    in stuff, ie pass the stored current user somewhere.
    Regarding security - this is just a local app running on an
    internal server, rather than out there in the wild.
    To test it out, I've added a 'LastUpdatedBy' field to my
    other app, and added in a hidden field in my update page :
    <input name="LastUpdatedBy" type="hidden"
    id="LastUpdatedBy" value="$_SESSION['MM_Username']">
    I have the code that does the inserting :
    if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) &&
    ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) {
    $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE Photos SET Link_ID=%s,
    Title=%s, Rights=%s, Rights_Details=%s, Credit=%s, Width=%s,
    Height=%s, Year=%s, Supplier=%s, Photo_File=%s, Orientation=%s,
    Admin=%s, Region=%s, Country=%s, Easting=%s, Northing=%s,
    LastUpdatedBy=%s WHERE Photo_ID=%s",
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Link_ID'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Title'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Rights'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Rights_Details'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Credit'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Width'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Height'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Year'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Supplier'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Photo_File'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Orientation'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Admin'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Region'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Country'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Easting'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['Northing'], "text"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['textfield'], "int"),
    GetSQLValueString($_POST['LastUpdatedBy'], "text"));
    The bits in bold I've added for the LastUpdatedBy - but no
    joy - that's entering $_SESSION['MM_username'] into the table.
    What should the syntax be?

  • Updating ArrayCollections from XML Files

    I am developing a game and I have a grid where I display all
    the users with their current states(wins, losses and balance). I
    retrieve the states of the players from an XML file every 10
    seconds. The XML file does not retrun the states of all the players
    every time I call it, it only returns information about the players
    that have changes in their states (won or lost).
    The problem is that when I upload the file every 10 seconds
    all the data is lost an only the uploaded data remains. I have beed
    searching for a way to only update the (ArrayCollection) that I am
    using but with no Luck.
    the following is a snapshot of some of the basic code that I
    am using
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application
    xmlns:mx="
    http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
    width="350" height="550"
    creationComplete="uSend();"
    >
    <mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
    import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
    [Bindable]
    private var usersCol:ArrayCollection;
    var load_Interval:uint;
    private function uResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void {
    usersCol = event.result.users.user;
    function uSend():void {
    clearInterval(load_Interval);
    u.send();
    load_Interval = setInterval(uSend, 10*1000);
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    <!-- Service to load in XML -->
    <mx:HTTPService
    id="u"
    url="gamers.xml"
    result="uResultHandler(event);" />
    <mx:Panel title="Top Gamers" width="100%">
    <mx:DataGrid
    id="usersGrid" width="100%" rowCount="20"
    dataProvider="{usersCol}">
    <mx:columns>
    <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="name"
    headerText="Name"/>
    <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="loss" headerText="Games
    Lost"/>
    <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="won" headerText="Games

    headerText="Total Cash"/>
    </mx:columns>
    </mx:DataGrid>
    </mx:Panel>

    and the following is the games.xml file format:
    <users>
    <user>
    <name>player 3</name>
    <loss>1</loss>
    <won>9</won>
    <totalCash>6,825</totalCash>
    </user>
    <user>
    <name>Player 10</name>
    <loss>12</loss>
    <won>7</won>
    <totalCash>2,075</totalCash>
    </user>
    </users>
    What is the best method to resolve this issue without
    performing so much array search?
    Many thanks

    Thanks for the Advice. I have tried both ways using an
    IViewCursor and e4x XML resultFormat, and I found the IViewCursor
    More Convient.
    The following is the code the code that I came up with
    private var userCursor:IViewCursor;
    private var tempCol:ArrayCollection;
    var ap_initialized:Boolean = false;
    private function bsResultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void {
    tempCol = event.result.users.user;
    // Initialization for the first time
    if (!ap_initialized){
    usersCol = tempCol;
    var sort:Sort = new Sort();
    sort.fields = [new SortField("name", true)];
    usersCol.sort = sort;
    usersCol.refresh();
    ap_initialized = true;
    // Disable Auto Update till all the changes are made to the
    ArrayCollection
    usersCol.disableAutoUpdate();
    userCursor = usersCol.createCursor();
    for (var i=0; i < tempCol.length; i++) {
    //Check if the item already exists
    if (userCursor.findAny({name:tempCol
    .name})){
    var tmpIndex = usersCol.getItemIndex(userCursor.current);
    usersCol.setItemAt(tempCol[ i ],tmpIndex);
    } else {
    // New Item to be Added
    usersCol.addItem(tempCol[ i ]);
    } // End For
    usersCol.enableAutoUpdate();
    load_Interval = setInterval(uSend, 2*1000);
    I don't think the above the optimal solution. Furthermore,
    there is a problem with grid; if you have 15 items in the grid, and
    you scroll to the middle of the grid, it keeps scrolling downwards
    with each new update. Something really wierd !!!

  • Software updates available from what date

    When we synchronize software updates for e.g for Windows 8.1 or 2008 R2. From which year are those updates available ?
    For e.g Are there security updates available from year 2005?

    The catalog goes back to the beginning for products that are in mainstream or extended support. If the product is no longer in extended support, the updates may still be there but Microsoft may remove them at any time.

  • Consistency check error 38011: Logical tables from multiple subject areas..

    I received multiple 38011 errors when performing a consistency check after merging repositories:
    For example:
    Logical tables from multiple subject areas associated, OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse
    (OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse refer to different business models)
    I'm really not sure what this means, and Metalink and Google aren't turning up anything.
    Thoughts?
    -John

    John,
    Does it say anything about Assertion Failure? Also, this is straight up from help regarding import (through file menu) "Use this option when the objects you import are unrelated to objects already in the repository such as when the business model and physical layer objects do not exist. If an object of the same name and type exists, the import process overwrites the existing object with the new object. When you import objects from one repository into another, the repository from which you are importing must be consistent."
    Sometimes Merge does bring unexpected (and unwanted results) - especially if there're presentation aliases, duplicate business models, or naming conflicts. If it's not too late, I suggest you use Import,rather than Merge, also, preferably starting with a new RPD file. This would enable you to bring items piece-by-piece and hopefully would allow you to isolate the problem.
    Also, depending on the size - it's sometimes preferable to just reproduce missing part(s). I hope this is helpful.
    Also, I forgot to say - the Import is deprecated and not supported. They suggest you use Project Extract and Merge. If Merge isn't working out for you and Import isn't an option - maybe you could try Project.

    Hi shldr2thewheel,
         it has been a while since we have last spoke, I would like to let you know, I am still working on getting used to the switch from windows to a Mac/Apple system. I do have a new question for you, I did purchase In Design CS5.5 through journeyed.com through Cuyahoga Community College of which I attend as a student, is there a way to purchase an online book through iTunes to learn that as well? Also, you know me, the struggling student, I would also, when and if the book can be purchased through the iTunes, would need to know if you do know of a much easier book for struggling students like myself and at a reasonable price as well for the In Design CS5.5 program. Our campus bookstore had closed early, and, so did the colleges library and our local library here where I do live, so, I cannot go to either place to purchase a book or to take out a book, plus cash funds are low at this moment as well but, I do have money left on the iTunes account to use, if it can be used. So, can it be used, the iTunes money, towards finding a low priced online book? I am in great need of assistance as I have a project due for my one course for this Tuesday, September 4, 2012.
    Sincerely in need of help once again,
    Kim

  • TS1717 Started a software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    Started a Itunes software update this morning which didn't work.  Now Itunes will not open at all.  I get the following message."The program can't state becasue MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer."

    There are a couple of options that I know of to fix the issue.
    One is listed in this thread - https://discussions.apple.com/message/24606478#24606478 - and involves uninstalling iTunes and related components and then re-installing iTunes.  You will need to read the instructions in the thread to see the correct uninstall order.
    Second option is use System Restore to set your system back to a date prior to the iTunes update.  I did this before finding the thread mentioned above.
    Not sure exactly what the problem is but I know, after a search, that MSVCR80.dll was indeed already installed on my computer.

    When I save the folder on my Local MAC I search via finder/spotlight a word and the PDFs which have the words in the document show up but when I save the folder on the TimeCapsuleDisk they dont.
    I use Acrobat XI PRO to make the PDF OCR capable and also  ABBYY FineReader PRO

    Saved OCR'ed PDF's on AirPort Time Capsule 3TB Disk ( latest firmware etc. )
    Search via finder in Folders &  "Spotlight"
    PDF OCR'ed files popup on local MAC disk
    PDF OCR'ed files (same folder c&p to TC) on TC disk do not popup ( clicked in search also on the specific folder but no finding )
    The finder/Spotlight finds documents on TC "names" but looks like from my point of view, it does not go into the documents which are OCR capable to search for these words.
    Why ?

    Hello everybody, good news: after upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.5 I've been able to run the installer and all went fine.
    Mountain Lion allows user to force execution through the context-menu (CTRL-click) Open command and it does work, just that simple.
    So my advice is: if you want to install or re-install Flash Builder 4.6 on a Mac with Lion installed, upgrade to Mountain Lion or better to avoid problems.
    Apple introduced some (not all) Gatekeeper functionalities in 10.7.3 and following, but apparently you need a full-fledged 10.8 to have also what you need to circumvent a Revoked Certificate error.
    Since usually OS X has auto updating active, if you are running Lion you end up with 10.7.5 and won't install FB46. If you manage somehow to hold 10.7.2 I suppose you should be able to install FB46, sincerely I didn't check it out. Anyway it's simpler and safer to move on to 10.8.x.
    Bye

  • Update database table from a work area

    hi!
    I have a workarea that is like the corresponding database table. There are a lot of fields so I dont want to update each field with an UPDATE but instead I want to do som sort of:

    UPDATE  dbtab      FROM wa. or
    UPDATE (dbtabname) FROM wa.
    Extras:
    1. ... CLIENT SPECIFIED
    2. ... CONNECTION con
    Effect
    Changes one single line in a database table, using a primary key to identify the line and taking the values to be changed from the specified work area, wa. The data is read out of wa from left to right, matching the line structure of the database table dbtab. The structure of wa remains unchanged. This means that wa must be at least as wide (see DATA) as the line structure of dbtab, and have the same alignment. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs.
    If either the database table, dbtab, or the work area, wa, contain Strings, wa must be compatible with the line structure of dbtab.
    Example
    Changing the telephone number of the customer with customer number '12400177' in the current client:
    DATA   wa TYPE scustom.
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM scustom INTO wa
      WHERE id = '12400177'.
    wa-telephone = '06201/44889'.
    UPDATE scustom FROM wa.
    When the command has been executed, the system field SY-DBCNT contains the number of updated lines (0 or 1).
    Examples
    Update discount for the customer with the customer number '00017777' to 3 percent (in the current client):
    DATA: wa TYPE scustom.
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM scustom INTO wa
      WHERE id = '00017777'.
    wa-discount = '003'.
    UPDATE scustom FROM wa.

    SY-SUBRC = 0:

    SY-SUBRC = 4:
    The system could not update any line in the table, since there is no line with the specified primary key.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's because OS X Lion is a paid upgrade. The most recent OS X version is Mountain Lion, so I recommend you to upgrade to this version.
    First, make sure that your Mac is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is supported, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. While Mountain Lion is downloading, you can make a backup of your files, so you won't lose them if the upgrade fails.
    When the download finishes, the installer will show up, so follow the steps to upgrade OS X. It will upgrade OS X to 10.8.2, so you will be able to install iBooks Author and a lot of apps from the App Store. Check if your applications are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

    SOLUTION ! Download CCleaner, it is a great little program and free.
    Using this you can click on TOOLS, then STARTUP. A list of programs are shown which are enabled at STARTUP. Disabling does not work, just click on APDPROXY and click DELETE. It`s GONE !
