Using fragments as an alternative to copy/paste

Not really a question, but I thought I would toss this out there in case it helps anyone else.
I have been working to implement a new feature on an audit form. I have learned to test on small, easy to piece together sample documents and once it's working, splice it back into the Big Form. 
Thing is, there appear to be certain situations where you can't just copy and paste pieces from one form to the other.  I tried creating a fragment from the pieces I wanted to copy, then inserted the fragment into the other document.  Because we don't have an Adobe server to automatically update fragments to end users, I then converted the newly-inserted fragment into embedded objects.  I was shocked to find that actually appears to be working!    ;-)
That little workaround looks like it will save me a ton of time.  If anyone has a better approach, please let me know - I'm self-taught and completely new to this.  I don't know what I don't know, ha ha!

Hello!  I will try to make note of them going forward, but if I remember correctly, I could not copy/paste a page and also a subform.  I'm sure it was operator error but dang, I sure tried!   ;-)
I have tried grouping items into subforms but then was unable to copy/paste the subform.

  • Is there a problem with copy paste using Ctrl+insert and Shift+insert

    This is a swing application.
    initially i was using java 1.3 and the copy paste using Ctrl+insert and Shift+insert was working
    then i migrated the same to java 1.5 and this functionality got messed up.

    Include the following in your initialization code, before you create any components:     InputMap im = (InputMap)UIDefaults.get("TextField.focusInputMap");
        im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("control INSERT"), DefaultEditorKit.copyAction);
        im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("shift INSERT"), DefaultEditorKit.pasteAction);
        im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("shift DELETE"), DefaultEditorKit.cutAction); You'll need to add the appropriate imports, too: import javax.swing.InputMap;
    import javax.swing.KeyStroke;
    import javax.swing.UIDefaults;
    import javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit; It seems they accidentally removed those bindings from JTextField under MetalLookAndFeel in JDK 1.5. They've been restored in JDK 1.6.

  • Copy & Paste from Illustrator to InDesign CS4

    Hi,
    I am aware that there are issues when copying/pasting from Illustrator to InDesign, in particular:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/6.0/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6bdda.html
    I have the following problems:
    1- I copy and paste text from Illustrator to InDesign on the same platform and some (not all) of the text is converted to outline in InDesign. The same font is available to both applications. Why this behaviour?
    2- I copy and paste objects containing text from Illustrator to InDesign and some of the objects appear to have moved respective positions when pasted into InDesign. Is this to be expected?
    Are there solutions to these problems? Note that if I expand everything in Illustrator prior to copying and pasting into InDesign, none of these issues occur, but everything is obviously in outline form, with the limitations it entails.
    My clipboard settings are as indicated in the link above, but I have tried other settings with no more luck.
    (Important: Before pasting a graphic, make sure that Illustrator is configured to copy as AICB (see Illustrator Help). In InDesign, make sure that Prefer PDF When Pasting isn’t selected in the Clipboard Handling preferences. If these options aren’t set properly, the Illustrator graphic cannot be edited in InDesign.)
    It is not practical for me to create an Illustrator file for each of the Illustrator graphics and import those files via Place into InDesign. I must use Copy/Paste.
    I use CS4.
    Thanks.

    You can copy/paste from Illy to ID by selecting the text with the type tool in Illy and then pasting it into ID. You will not be able to maintain the formatting. If you want to maintain the appearance the text will be converted to outlines.
    If you need to get anything other than very simple objects from Illy to ID then you should save as AI and use the file > place command to place those objects as linked graphics into ID.
    Your closing statement is irrelevant. Whether you like it or not, this is the way it is.

  • Copy Paste Keyframe Issue

    So, I have a composition with a solid and a null object.  The solid has a spiral path made using the pen tool.  I copied/pasted the mask path from the solid to the null object (transform > position).  However, the null object bounces all around the screen and does not follow the spiral path.  When I look closely at the keyframes that were pasted, I notice that there are additional keyframes that were pasted (I assume After FX added these for some reason).  Some of them even appear to be inbetween actual keyframes.  How do I disable these additional keyframes?  And/or, how do I copy/paste this?
    Thanks!

    Ok, I have provided some screenshots.
    Here is what the project/comp looks like:
    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ZLdbNF3.jpg[/IMG]
    After I made the path (using the pen tool), I copied the mask path
    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/AI51jce.jpg[/IMG]
    Then, I pasted it into the null object position
    [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/QEcFUjk.jpg[/IMG]
    In this next screen, you can see how different the keyframes appear.  I want them to be identical.

  • Some general ?'s re: urxvt, copy/paste, etc.

    I started using urxvt, and I just checked the manpage and what I believe is the section on keybindings was quite confusing for me. I am used to gnome-terminal's ctrl+alt+c/v for copy/paste, and just want to double check a few things.
    1. In urxvt, highlight with either left/right mouse and which kb button/shortcut will copy? And what is the paste command in urxvt (above gnome-terminal combo doesn't work I just realized).
    2. Doing it this way, I can only paste with middle mouse button, ctrl+v in FF for example doesn't paste it, and I am confused about why?
    3. Can someone give me a fairly basic command/rundown for configuring/viewing keybindings in urxvt? I have checked the manpage like I said and it was a bit baffling.
    Thanks folks I really want to learn it, appreciate any help to get me in the right direction with some basics

    colbert wrote:Is it just separate clipboards and that's how it is?
    Yes. As a matter of fact, clipboard managers such as Glipper allow for collection of copied items based on whether the items come from the Primary selection (highlight & middleclick) or the Clipboard (CTL+C & CTL+V, etc.).
    See my post here:
    http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 26#p279226
    (especially the link at the bottom) for more detailed info about the copy and paste implementation in X11.
    By the way, I recently began using rxvt-unicode, and two things that I find require some adjustment are the use of the Primary selection for copy / paste (without the option for using the Clipboard) and no drag and drop support.
    Because of urxvt's use of the Primary clipboard, I had to enable that feature in Glipper (which I normally have disabled), and it certainly leads to a lot of junk filling up Glipper's copy / paste list. Every time you highlight something whether you intended to copy and paste it or not, the item ends up in the list making it more difficult to cull out the items you really intended to re-use for copy & paste operations.
    I guess everything has its pros and cons, and I'm still on the fence about whether the pros of urxvt outweigh the cons. I'm leaning towards keeping it for now.
    Edit: grammar

  • Preventing URL Copy & Paste in OAF

    Hi Team,
    I want to prevent the URL Copy & Paste scenario in OAF.
    I mean USER1 logged in & visited some pages, Example: Page1. then USER1 copied the URL when he/she is in Page1.
    then Did logout.
    Then USER2 logged in & then Pasted the URL, which was copied above, then Page1 is getting opened, But we Don't want this type of behaviour.
    This kind of Behaviour voilates the Security.
    Any Ideas to achieve this.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Naren.

    Hi Naren,
    Yes we have a SecurityMode property at pageLayout level, but by default it should be standard then the system will take care of the security
    like user->Responsibility->Menu->Function(which is associated with the page).
    If you set to SelfSecured, the developer's responsibility to grant the function, menu to the user...etc.
    Check your page's SecurityMode, I am sure it will be standard.
    And USER1 and USER2 are accessing the page via same responsibility?
    Can you try assigning to the page to diff responsibility and give access to the page using diff responsibility and try the copy paste URL
    Thanks,
    With regards,
    Kali.
    OSSi.

  • Copy paste SMS

    Hi
    can anyone help me
    i want to transfer SMS on nokia 73 memory card to 5800 XM memory card---with out using PC suite i need just copy paste them....................
    plz
    thanx

    By default sms are stored in phone's built-in memory not on a memory card, so my guess is that you want to transfer all your sms from one phone to another is that correct?
    If you had your sms on a memory card you would just need to remove the memory card from the N73 and insert it into your 5800 but i'm not sure if both phones (S60 v3  vs v5) store sms in the same folders/files.
    Thank you for clicking on the Green button with the white Star for Kudos!!

    Detail: I am having a HTML from, having text box, displayed using UIWebView. If user types in text box it shows the keyboard. Now If user tap and hold on text box it shows a popup menu. Now while keyboard and pop up are being displayed user scrolls the view. At this time it shows pop up over the keyboard which I need to hide.
    I tried setMenuVisible of UIMenuController when popup rect and keyboard rect intersects each other on viewDidScroll but it didn't help me.

  • How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values?

    How do I copy/paste full numerical-only account strings into the Projects WebADI template when the account segment fields in the template require use of the dropdown because they're formatted as alpha-numeric values? I'm using the Integrator named "Projects - Transaction Import" and a custom Layout created based on the seeded Layout named "Transaction Import - Accounted". Do I need to somehow change my Layout to make the Document accept numerical values instead of requiring alpha-numeric values? I need to be able to populate the Document with a large amount of transactions and cannot feasibly go through every transaction to add the alpha-valued name of the account segment to every segment that requires it. The segments in particular causing the problem are "Expnd Type" and "Organization Name" which are both alpha-numeric and as such contain the segment number and name; I need to be able to only have to enter the Natural Account Number (6-digit number only) and the Organization Number (5-digit number only).

  • Copy/paste full row, full column, a cell on datagrid using MVVM?

    What is the best way to implement on datagrid? As I am new on this, I had some researches but I am confused because there are some complicated implementations and easy ones? I try to understand the best way.
    Adding simply selection mode and selection Unit doesnt help. Because it only copies the row but I cant paste it simply as a new row.

  • I would like to download a production desciption into my website like I have before, but it says I can't use the copy/paster method anymore. Why?

    I have a website - www.pawsitivepamperings.com, and I have been adding products for the last 6 months. I have been using the copy/paste method from my drop shipper. Since the end of last week, it hasn't been working. It has totally stopped my progress! I need help in using this function again - as soon as possible. Can you help me?

    I right click, and Copy from an HTML description from my drop shipper. Then I go to my website and right click to Paste.
    One of two things happens. (1) if it does copy, the text prints over the image; OR (2) I get a message that Firefox does not apply a Cut/Copy/Paste.
    The wording at the bottom of the description box says: Path: table> tbody> tr> td> p> font.
    I was told by my webmaster to eliminate the following but I don't see it on my products page: <table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="100%>.
    When I have been on a 'live chat' with my support team, a couple of them have overridden the issue and I could precede, but I go to the next product to add, the whole process starts again and I cannot proceed.
    Does this make sense?
