Using MovieClips, etc. inside of buttons?

Hi.
I created a movie clip (let's call it "mysymbol") that contains several buttons, as well as functions for MOUSE_OVER and MOUSE_OUT events ("mover" and "mout"). Everything works when the mouse enters "mysymbol" for the first time (mover is being called), but if I move the mouse inside mysymbol to another button, the MOUSE_OUT function (mout) is being called first and then immediately mover. Obviously, I don't want there to be any function calling at all! I have found a way to circumvent this, but since I'm new at this I struggle to get it to work properly:
If mysymbol is a button instead of a movie clip, then I can move my mouse freely within mysymbol without triggering any MOUSE_OVER or MOUSE_OUT events. However, there is another problem: I somehow can't get movie clips to work inside a button (I assume this is by design), so how do I get my animations etc. to work inside this button?
Or is there an alternative to using a button as a container?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Edit: Hmm, using a buttons inside of buttons seems to be a bad idea either way - my "fix" only worked with ActionScript2, but since I'm using AS3 that is of no use to me. ... HELP!

I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean by that or actually - how to do that.

Upon right clicking a hyperlink, image, etc., the properties button no longer appears in the list. (I am using FireFox version 3.6.3)

When right-clicking an image, hyperlink, etc., the "Properties" button is not in the drop-down list as it has always been in previous Firefox versions.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Installation of Firefox version 3.6.3

Properties has been removed from the right-click context menu. You now need to use right-click '''''View Image Info''''' or '''''View Page Info''''' > Media and scroll down the list of items to see the properties.
Do not post at the following link; just read the discussion. See [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=513147 Bug 513147] – Get rid of the "Properties" context menu item.
The following add-on will add the "Properties" option to the right-click menu in Firefox 3.6 and higher: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/14228

As far as functionality goes, I don't see anything wrong. when it comes to efficiency you need to keep some general pointers in mind. These issues which I'm bringing up will not affect your code currently since your array sizes are small but can start creating memory fragmentaion and slow down the software if your array sizes are much larger and the software runs for a long period of time.
1. Try not to use Build Array. Each time you use a built array labview creates a copy in the memory. Try to initilized your arrays and replace the subsets.
2. as much as you can try not index arrays or unbundle cluster multiple times. try to perform as many tasks as possbile in one shot. (this was evident in your second loop)
Besides that it's looking good.
I made a few modifications to your code and attached it. I wanted to give you a different take on it as it relates to being able to control the inputs and outputs programitically, if you had a look up table. I didn't make the same modifications to your second loop but I can guide you through what needs to be done if you would like to move in this direction. Again your original code is well done for someone who is new to labview so don't feel like you need to follow the new VI design. Just try to remove the build array and multiple indexing as a good programming habbit.

Why can access the dynamic textField inside a Button?

yep, I have another problem
I create a button in the library, it has a background graphic
on a layer and a textField, the textField has a instance name
defined in the properties panels and some text. I manually place
some instance of the button on stage, I give them different
instance names and voilà a new problem arise
when with actionscript I try to assign a new text to the
textField inside a button it throws me error 1119. A quick look at
the menu option debug ->list objects, shows me that the instance
name of the textField inside the button it is not what I defined
but it was replaced with some random name like "instance66"
I did a test with a movieclip instead of a button and I can
correctly access my textField with the instance name that I
manually defined.
Why that can be the same with the button? And if for some
arcane reason cant be possible to access a manually defined
instance inside a button WHY flash give me the possibility to give
an instance name to a dynamic textField inside a button?

Buttons simply do not have the same properties and methods
that movieclips have. Anytime you want to create a button that has
anything beyond the simple 3 states of activity, use a movieclip.
I can't answer why flash allows you to give an instance name
to the textfield, but in any case, it won't allow you to use
it.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

How to use analytical functions inside a mapping

Hello everybody. Here Isend you a trick that we are using for two years.
If you want to use a function (for instance :ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY ... ORDER BY ...)) inside a mapping you must create an expression with in the INGRP1 the fields you are going to use in the window function and in the OUTGRP1 the function you want. Create an Out -attribute with the expressión and link it to a distinct operator (using a "distinct" you encapsulte the sql and you will be able to use the function inside a filter - in the where clause.). The distinct can eliminate some register (depends on the function). If you validate the expression an error will appear (don't worry about that, the mapping will be ok).
But there is a limitation, you will not be able tou sum over, min over, max over (it detect that they are aggregator functions). Other limitation: the debugger doesn't run with this kind of functions.
Please publish this information on "The Warehouse Builder Utility Exchange". Mi email is [email protected] (if you need more information)

It is possible to add SUM, MIN, MAX functions also to OWB releases prior to Paris - You have to put them in double quotes - write "MIN" "MAX" "SUM" etc. The rest of the rules (adding cut-off operator after the expression - as DISTINCT, or UNION ALL) is analogical to with ROW_NUMBER()
That means You can create mapping with following functionality:
SELECT
sum (salary) over (partition by DEPARTMENT) department_salary,
salary,
employee_id,
employee_name
FROM employees_salaries
writing it this way in OWB:
SELECT
"SUM" (salary) over (partition by DEPARTMENT) department_salary,
salary,
employee_id,
employee_name
FROM employees_salaries

Martin

Angry Birds Friends on Facebook will not load in Firefox, just white screen. Will load using Chrome, etc?

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Using ALTER SESSION inside a stored procedure.... not a good idea?

Hi,
I have two stored procedures, both of which are used to query a database to find a particular book, based on ISBN. One sproc searches our main product catalogue and the other searches our suppliers feed catalogues. The stored procedures are called from a C# application via a search tool and the user is able to search on either our catalogue or our suppliers. The appropriate procedure is called based on the users choices.
However, the following behaviour is observed
I search for an ISBN (is a varchar2 field, as isbn's may contain an X if the checksum digit equates to 10) on a feed, so uses the FEED SPROC. The book is found and returned to the app in about 0.5 seconds. I can repeat this as often as i like on different books etc. always works fine.
I then do the same search but against our own catalogue, so uses our CATALOGUE SPROC. Again the book is found quickly, and the search can be repeated with the same results.
If i then go back and run our FEED SPROC then the search time increases to about 3 minutes !
Both the feed and our catalogue is in the same database, although different schema's the connections will be pooled through our app server.
I can repliacte this every single time. I think i have narrowed doen the cause of this behaviour to a few lines of code in our CATALOGUE SPROC:
-- store values
select value into v_vch_NLS_COMP from nls_session_parameters nsp where nsp.parameter = 'NLS_COMP';
select value into v_vch_NLS_SORT from nls_session_parameters nsp where nsp.parameter = 'NLS_SORT';
-- Ensure case insensitivity throughout
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP = LINGUISTIC';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT = BINARY_CI';
do other stuff
-- restore session variables
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP = ' || v_vch_NLS_COMP;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT = ' || v_vch_NLS_SORT;
If i remove this code then all is well, so i am assuming that using ALTER SESSION inside a stored procedure is the cause of the problem as it would be changing the execution plan of the FEEDS SPROC in some manner? Any ideas? I know i can just rewrite the sproc to avoid using this coding, but wanted to understand if i am doing something wrong by using ALTER SESSION in this manner?
Any pointers would be appreciated.

Hello (and welcome),
It may be a case of having to create a linguistic index to facilitate the queries once you set these session level parameters, i.e..,
CREATE INDEX idx_01 ON tab ((NLSSORT(col1, 'NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI'))It would appear that the setting of those parameters is invalidating index searching on the current indexes.

I could use some help w/ Flash Buttons please...

I am creating my site in Flash... All is well. Buttons work fine. Then all the sudden buttons do not work when created inside a movie clip. If I choose to enable simple buttons, they work fine when I am within the clip but when I go back to Scene they no longer work as well as when I preview? They are there, set up right, just do not work when out side of clip... The buttons I have for main page still work fine...
Thanks so much!
I am going crazy!!!!
Jayson

The code I used for the common library buttons is:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
//variable is a container that holds some value...
var imageNumber:Number=1;
function checkNumber():void {
    next_btn.visible=true;
    back_btn.visible=true;
    //If the number is = 77, then do something...
    if (imageNumber==70) {
    next_btn.visible=false;
//if the imageNumber is = 1, then don't show back button
if (imageNumber==1) {
    trace(imageNumber);
    back_btn.visible=false;
checkNumber();
function nextImage(evtObj:MouseEvent):void {
    //Adding to the current value +1
    imageNumber++;
    oeightloader.source = "2008images/oeight"+imageNumber+".jpg";
    checkNumber();
back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, backImage);
function backImage(evtObj:MouseEvent):void {
    //Subtract 1 from the current value
    imageNumber--;
    oeightloader.source="2008images/oeight"+imageNumber+".jpg";

Problems putting Images inside large buttons

The problem below is using the Fireworks program to create a
Button with an Image inside.
Ok I have created a generic button , This button is not a
fireworks button it was made from scratch, the size is roughly
90x90 , what I want to do is place and Image inside this button and
then to be able to move the image into the correct place, If I
paste the image into the button it simply places the image where it
wants I cannot move the image , I tried creating a Layer and Frame
and using the marque tool but it pastes the image top left hand
corner and the image cannot be moved.
Where am I going wrong.?.
SPECCY.

do this in an image editor. It would be much simpler/easier
and more
reliable that using html.
If you still want to do it in html, put the button image as a
background.

How to use OMBPLUS activity inside process flow

Hi, I’m using OWB 11.2.0.3.
In a process flow, I need to use an OMBPLUS activity. When I run the process flow, it runs successfully and says: “Log file is available. Click Information button to view.”
-Where is the log file, OWB is talking about?
-Is there any sample of using OMBPLUS activity inside a process flow?
THANKS, au revoir!

Thanks, Dallan
Articles on "Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) Weblog" really help me.
So, I understand that I can't resume process flow in Control Center - only in Repository Browser. :)
IMHO, this is something puzzled and missmatch with official Users Guide

On i pod touch the orientation does not change when I turn it on it's side when using safari etc. When viewing youtube it only displays widescreen and will not display portrait , anyone any ideas? is this a fault or do all ipod touch do this?

The user guide says:
Movies viewed in Videos and YouTube appear only in landscape orientation. Street views in Maps
also appear only in landscape orientation.
Do you have the scree orientation lock turned on? If on there is a circular arrow icon with a padlock inside next to the battery charge icon in the upper right.

how do we use if statement in labview?moreover can i use if statement inside for loop?

The if statement in LabVIEW is the Case structure. You can find that on the Structures palette right next to the For Loop. If you're still on the same subject about terminating a for loop early, then what you do is enclose your functions inside the loop with a case statment and make one of the case's empty except for one or more constants that you might have to wire. Hopefully, the attached picture will explain what I mean. Also, as I mentioned in one of your other posts, I think this technique is not as good as using a while loop. The array in the attached example is the same size no matter what and you may have to handle stripping extra or invalid elements.
