    Either manually do a 'define editor=vi' when you log in through sql*plus, or put that in the glogin.sql in $ORACLEHOME/sqlplus/admin or put that in a login.sql in the directory you run sqlplus from.

  • Change default editor to PSE 9

    I installed PSE 9.   I am unable to change my default editor from PSE 5 to 9.  PSE does not show up in my list of recommended  programs, so I browse to PSE9 editor and click on it.  The change is not made, and everything continues to open with PSE 5

    This happens at times. Here's how it should work for you. First, rename the PSE 9 Editor application to let's say, 'Adobe PSE 9 Editor.exe' and then, try changing the file association by going to the file properties.

  • Change default editor for yaourt

    How do I do it? I'm stuck with vim right now. And I don't want to learn vim, when nano is enough for me. Can't find anything by googling either.

    If you want to use nano as the default editor for all terminal-related stuff, add
    export EDITOR="nano"
    to your ~/.bashrc file.
    Yaourt (like most cli programs) by default looks for the $EDITOR environment variable for your editor of choice. So if you change the value of that variable to 'nano', all those programs will use nano.

  • Change default logon/startup/lock screen in windows 8 pro

    Hi,
    I want to change my default logon screen, the one that appears when I boot. I have changed the lock screen within my account, but I can't change the one (that I beleive is) for the default user. I have seen some complicated steps to copy over a file
    in systemdata folder for the default user profile, but It seems really awful to do it in my notebook (which is not joined to a domain, and it is Windows 8 Pro). So, is there a simple way to do it? Why my personalized lock screen isn't shown?
    Regards,
    MarianoC.

    Thanks MarianoC, you got me closer to solving my lock screen problem.  Sorry about your lock screen presets issue, glad that is not an issue for me, as I see you have given up.  I wanted to post my more detailed solution description
    here, since this was one of the fist places I landed while researching this.
    I fixed mine by replacing the default Lock Screen image files. 
    You can find them here C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\SystemData\S-1-5-18\ReadOnly  
    Caution---You have to have hidden files visible, and you also have to understand how to take ownership of folders and assign ownership and permissions (it's not that difficult, search if
    you don't know how).
    I had 2 folders in that location W and Z;
    The W folder already had my selected Lock Screen picture. 
    The W folder may have been the result of a previous tweak I tried, it had the newer photo I had selected already, if your W doesn’t have your photo and you have issues maybe replace it too.
      If you don’t have a W folder I wouldn’t sweat it for now.
    I had my luck with the Z folder, it contained the default space needle picture in 2 versions; dimmed and plain (I didn't look for a visual difference). 
    I replaced both of them with my chosen lock screen picture.
    There are 2 ways to do this;
    1st is to rename your original file (add a 1 to the name, you can go back to original easier this way). Replace it with picture of your choosing with the exact same name as original. 
    You must assign full permission to the system account. 
    Warning. This method seems safer but I could not figure out how to assign permission to the trusted installer account, which existed previously for this file, this could inhibit some future compatibility.
    2nd way preserves system and trusted installer permissions. 
    Create your lock screen pictures in a separate folder, with exactly the same names as your 2 original files. 
    Copy/Paste the files into the Z folder, you will get asked to replace existing. 
    If you say yes it should preserve security settings but update the photo.

  • Change Default Setting in PDF Set Up Window to RGB

    Is it possible to change the default setting in the FrameMaker 11 PDF Set UP window to RGB. The current default setting is CMYK.
    I have not been able to find a way to do this.
    Thank-you for your assistance.
    Brenda

    Thank-you. This solved the problem.
    I have another questions. I am importing xml feeds into a FM11 using an automated process. After importing, the xml feeds are translated into a formatted FM11 file. When I perform a Save As in order to save the document as Document 11.0 (.fm), I am noticing that the default choice is to save the  document as XML. I need to choose Document 11.0 (.fm) before saving. I checked the FrameMaker template and its default setting Save As setting is Document 11.0 (.fm). Is there a way for me to change a setting so that the imported file has a default Save As setting of Document 11.0 (.fm)?

  • Can I change Bridge CC default editor to photoshop elements 13?

    In Bridge CC, can I change default editor to photoshop elements 13? Or at least list it as an external editor?

    In bridge cc if you go to Adobe Bridge>Preferences>File Type Associations you can set pse 13 for the default for whatever file types you want.
    One catch to using photoshop elements with bridge is if you open a camera raw file in the bridge camera raw, the open button will open the file into photoshop instead of photoshop elements.
    You can press the Done button and then open the file into pse 13 and it should retain all the settings, though you won't be able to change some of them in the pse 13 camera raw dialog.

  • How to change default encoding in DataBindings.cpx

    Hello,
    How to change default encoding in DataBindings.cpx,
    on windows-1251 for instance?

    I've filed Bug# 3147045 for this. Our DataBinding.cpx file and UIModel XML files seem to be getting hardcoded to use the ISO-8859-1 encoding. Our ADF Business Components XML files correctly pickup the IDE encoding.

  • When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Question
    When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Is FF downloading the file as a .txt file? If so, go to "Folder Options" in the windows control panel. Click on the "File Types" tab. Scroll down until you reach the TXT file extension. Look to see what that extension opens with (lower part of panel). It probably shows notepad. Click on the <Change> button. Scroll down until you find "Microsoft Word." Select it and click the <OK> button. That should show the TXT extension is now associated with Microsoft Word. Click the <Close> button at the bottom of the panel.
    If FF is downloading the file as any other type, use the same process as above except look for the corresponding extension instead. If the extension is not listed click on the <New> button and create an association using the extension in the file name and then associate it with MS Word.

  • How i embed notepad as a default editor in Oracle forms10g

    Dear all,
    I want to use Notepad or wordpad as a default editor in oracle forms for every text item that is placed in my module.
    To get it i have already done the following things :
    1.In the default.env file i added a new line
    FORMS_EDITOR=C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe
    2. In the regedit
    i added a new string variable FORMS_EDITOR in the following path
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KEY_ORACLE10gds\FORMS_EDITOR
    Value_data : C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe
    3. InORACLE forms Builder
    EDIT->Preference->General_tab->check the use System_editor
    But all this doesn't work.Stile if i press ctrl+E it shows the default editor not my notepad as a editor.
    Please give me the suggestion ASAP.
    Thanks in advance.

    I don't think thats possible in 10G, as it is web-based now.

  • How can I change my Editor default back to Elements 8? (changed when I loaded trial Elements 11.)

    How can I change my Editor default back to Elements 8?   When I downloaded a trial version of Elements 11, my default changed to version 11.  I use Adobe Lightroom, and when I switch over to Elements using "Edit In", it automatically open Elements 11 now.

    Hi, I'm a newbie here.
    I almost always make my outputs in Wav, 16bit, 22050Hz, and I find it very cumbersome to always have to change each setting when saving my files.
    Is there any option, or an easier way to change default save format?

  • How to change default thresholds for some metrics of all targets.

    Hi!
    We have a lot of servers which have to work hard.
    So, our OEM very often generates messages like these:
    "EM Alert: Critical:dbsora90.tsb.kz - CPU Utilization is 99.95%, crossed warning (80) or critical (95) threshold."
    "EM Alert: Critical:dbsora94.tsb.kz - Disk Device c8t60A9800043346C384C344A4A63516D6Ad0(ssd4) is 99.7% busy."
    "EM Alert: Critical:dbsora94.tsb.kz - CPU Load (Run Queue Length averaged over 5 minutes) is 20.78, crossed warning (10) or critical (20) threshold."
    I need to change default tresholds for mentioned metrics but I can't their defenition in SYSMAN.MGMT_*-tables or suitable settings in OEM GUI.
    And I have no time to edit treshholds manually for each target. )

    Modification of Metric Thresholds (as this is what you are referring to), should be done using the Metrics and Policy Settings link (to be found in the Target Home page).
    Don't mess around with the SYSMAN tables!
    Best thing to do here is to start using Monitoring Templates for this.

  • How to change Default Finder Windows Size?

    Hi all:
    New Finder windows show Macintosh HD and there is no problem in keeping the size or view options every time I open a new window (command + N).
    I can change "New Finder windows show" to another folder and works just as well.
    But when I open a folder in a new window (double click on an icon folder) the size of the window is very small and different from the window displayed by using command + N.
    Finder saves and applies default view options to all windows without a problem, but not the default size or in other words: 
    default windows size is different from new finder windows size.
    In Snow Leopard I could change default size of all windows holding down the Shift key while dragging and changing the size but in Mountain Lion it does not work.
    I have also deleted all files .DS_Store but neither works.
    I searched a lot but can not find a solution to this problem.
    Thanks.

    As far as New Finder Windows (command+N) are concerned, there's no problem.
    All other folder's Finder Windows I have not modified manually are displayed with the default size shown in the attached image. That is the window size that I want to modify.
    Thanks.
