WFS Bounding Box question

Hello,
I've integrated a WFS layer into an Oracle Maps application and am having errors when I try to do anything that involves a 'bounding box' type query, like zooming, panning etc. A "zoomToTheme()" function works fine as this does not use the bounding box.
Looking at the logs on the WFS server (GeoServer 2.1.3) the request has this form :
      <ogc:Filter>
        <ogc:BBOX>
          <ogc:PropertyName>CCW:sssi_polygon/CCW:the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>
          <gml:Box srsName="EPSG:27700" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml">

          </gml:Box>
        </ogc:BBOX>
      </ogc:Filter>However the WFS server doesn't like the "CCW:sssi_polygon/CCW:the_geom" PropertyName and raises this error :
   <ServiceException code="InvalidParameterValue">
      Illegal property name: CCW:sssi_polygon/CCW:the_geom
Details:
org.geoserver.wfs.WFSException: Illegal property name: CCW:sssi_polygon/CCW:the_geomIs this something that MapViewer is doing wrong or the WFS server? Looking at other WFS examples it seems that MapViewer is wrong, however I am no WFS expert!
Is there anyway that this can be configured to just pass through "CCW:the_geom" or even "the_geom" instead?
Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

Additional info :
This layer works perfectly well in the Map Builder and looking at the request made by Map Builder it appears to be doing it 'correctly' :
<ogc:Filter>
<ogc:BBOX>
    <ogc:PropertyName>CCW:the_geom</ogc:PropertyName>

    </gml:Box>

Bounding Box Question

I've been sent an Illustrator file that has an odd Bounding Box.
There is a gray star shape in the little boxes on the corners and sides of a specific shape in the file. I need to work with it with the compound path menu or with the Pathfinder tool, but I can't do anything with it.
I've never seen this before, don't know how it was created, and can't find any reference to it in my manuals or "help."
The shape is still editable but not completely. Does anyone know what this is? What I can do to turn it off? How was it created in the first place?
Thanks.

It's a Live Paint group. If you want to edit it as you would normally do with regular objects, select it and click the Expand button in the Control Panel.

Bounding boxes appear in Acrobat after exporting from InDesign

Whenever I create outline fonts in my CS3 version of InDesign (I haven't upgraded to CS4 on this one program yet), I'm left with some very strange thin white lines surrounding some or all of the resulting letters that look suspiciously like bounding boxes. This never seems to occur if I don't create outline fonts, but simply embed the fonts and create a PDF using the Export command, so I have to believe the anomaly has something to do with this conversion process within the program. If I use illustrator CS4 to create outline fonts and then place them within my InDesign documents, I don't appear to have the problem. However, that's not a very desirable solution as it negatively impacts the fluidity of layouts and the ease of design, both of which I use in design for.
And yes, these small thin white lines do print, so the problem is far more than merely academic.
Has anyone else ever experienced this issue, and if so, how did you solve the problem (assuming you did)?

Sorry about that, I apparently forgot to attach the file; have done so now.
The method I'm using for creating outlines is simply to use the "Create Outlines" command under the Type menu within InDesign. Then I create my PDF files by using the Export command under the File menu and choosing the PDF/X1a option. 99% of the time I get perfect results, it's only when I try to make outline type that I encounter this problem. You'll clearly see the artifacts in question in the example attached.
I don't know whether or not the press would have printed these artifacts, as you suggest, since no printer has been willing to execute a file that shows any anomaly in the proof process. I can't say that I blame them.
Hopefully you will see what I'm talking about and can recommend a solution, though I like your idea of simply giving them a properly executed file and then telling them to get a life. It hasn't worked so far, as I unfortunately deal with a lot of Neanderthals around here, but I suppose it's worth putting forth again the next time this issue arises. It will.
By the way, no print house of my choosing is this far behind the curve, if at all. These cavemen are always printers who have long-standing relationships with my clients, and for whatever reason (generally lowest cost I'm sure), the clients think they hung the moon. We, of course, no otherwise, but it does it profit a designer to tell his client he or she is crazy for using a printer who is a decade behind the technology curve.
We cowboy up and seek solutions, eh?

Is there a way to tighten a text bounding box?

Hey all,
I've looked before but never found a definitive answer to this question:
Is there a way to tighten the text bounding box without converting it to outlines?
I work for a screen printer, and want to figure out a way to tighten the bounding box without changing the leading and without converting it to outlines in order to be able to edit said text. We deal with a lot of clients who send us names, that are often misspelled, and after an initial proof need to be corrected. Sometimes we need to center this text to an object.
Illustrator's bounding box, unlike that of Corel (which is our primary program, and won't open AI files) includes the leading below the type, so when you center it, it's not visually centered:
So I guess my real question is is there a way to get the text centered (as seen below) without converting the text to outlines, or messing with the leading, or is there a way to tighten the bounding box?
Thanks in advance!
-K

Combat and Dandreu,
You may use this silly way:
1) Tick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds;
2) Select the Type and Effect>Path>Outline Object.
That will reduce the Bounding Box to the actual bounds of the letters so you can centre as you wish.
Remember to untick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds before you get a reverse issue.

CS2 Need to set text bounding box to snap to exact measurement, not em size and without leading

I am currently using CS2 working in a sign shop designing signs, banners and vehicle lettering.
When working with text I need to know the exact letter height, not the em and without the leading. I need it exactly the way it would measure if converting the text to outlines. The reason I need this information is that when I output the lettering to a cutter/plotter to cut vinyl media I need to know the exact measurement so I can nest my lettering on my media size. The media is typically 24" wide which gives me 22.5" of available space once the pinch rollers on the machine are considered. Pinch rollers are rollers that engage a knurled driving wheel and "pinches" the media between them and thus guides the media through the plotter. Of course, when using any media one must make the best use of it to avoid making scrap or using more than is needed for the job at hand. Converting text to outlines gives me that measurement.
One time awhile back I did a google search on this and found a one or two button fix that made the bounding box snap to the exact "ruler" height of the text. It worked great. But I got away from design work for a short period. When I returned I'd forgotten the process. Back when I did find it I never bookmarked or made a text file explaining the process and I'm ost in finding it again.
I don't know exactly how I worded the google search but the answer I was looking for came up on the first page. That's probably why I didn't feel the need to bookmark it or write it down. Now, I've googled dozens of different wordings for my question and get nothing. It's likely a nomenclature/jargon issue and I've yet to stumble on it again.
If anyone could help out I would so greatly appreciate it. As it is, when I get to the point that I need to know the exact ruler height of my lettering I convert my text to outlines. But then, as sometimes happens, I'll desire to change the font or try someting different but the text is not live so I'll have to start over with that line of lettering.
I sincerely hope my explanation of my questions makes sense to anyone who might be reading this.

Jacob Bugge, you are a blessing. This effect not only saves me time but avoids a lot of frustration when a client wants to change some copy or I commit a spelling error or have some other brain malfunction. Not to mention the sometimes hundreds of single words or number groups I must fit onto an artboard set to my available media space.
Option 2 is exactly what I was looking for and I'll remember it forever now as I've spent parts of the past week searching that answer only to hear over and over again, "You can't do that in Illustrator".
Thank you so much for your quick response!

Can someone help me in building an interactive PDF form with dynamic bounding box?

Hi Guys,
I need to create an interactive PDF form which will contain images, text and fields.
This is how it would be laid out:
Header Image at the top.
Below that a Text Box with a question "Choose the number of licenses" and a drop down option from 1 to 10.
Depending on what they select, I need the following to be displayed.
The following should be encapsuled by a bounding box.
If "1" is selected. "Username: <blank field> Password: <blank field>
Then a button which says "Click Here To Login To Your New Account".
The bounding box should end here.. and I have more text and images below.
This I could achieve! But now if I select "2" I would need the bounding box to automatically become taller to accommodate two rows with "Username <blank> Password <blank>
The bounding box needs to expand or contract based on the number selected in the drop down.
Would love to here your thoughts on this!
Cheers,
Rajiv

If you were to look at the spec for PDF, you'd see that that is probably not possible with a PDF file.
But, I encourage you to ask this question in the Acrobat PDF Forms forum where the forms experts reside, and perhaps they could suggest an answer. JavaScript can be used, and perhaps that's the answer:

Bounding Box Lags Behind

Hello. I'm on PS 5.5 for PC. When I use tools that create bounding boxes (rectangle marquee, lasso, etc) the bounding box lags behind and only appears when I click off the tool. I tried to reset preferences and reset tools but problem persists. Thank you.

Bounding box around rollover images

on the rollover image. This does not show up in Safari but does

No, I have no idea. But I realize, I may have given you a bum
steer. What
I was describing was the a:focus functionality which happens
BEFORE you
click. What you are asking about is something that you see
AFTER clicking,
right? In that case, try the CSS rule -
a img { outline:none; }
and see if that works.

Scripting: Bounding Box Paragraph Style

I just got off of a chat with Om of Adobe Tech Support. He informs me what I am trying to do is possible with scripting, but I am not skilled at this at all, so I was hoping the community here might be able to help me. What I am trying to do is this...
I am laying out a document that has certain paragraphs that need to be surrounded by a box with a 1p0 black line. When the paragraph in question is split between two columns the top half of the box needs to surround the text in the first column, and the bottom half of the box needs to surround the text at the top of the next column. In other words the box needs to be split as well as the paragraph. When in the middle of a column the box is intact. I had been drawing the box by hand, but when the text is reflowed for whatever reason all of the boxes need to be moved and many of the 3 lines of half boxes need to be be redrawn. I am looking for a way to accomplish the same thing programatically by designing a style to handle not only the text, but the bounding box as well.
Below is a screenshot of a finished PDF that illustrates both a bounding box in the middle of a column, and one split between columns. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
A sample script (I may be able to alter if necessary), or a finished script would be great! I am also quite a n00b with InDesign, and would need a quick tutorial on how to use the script.
Thanks!
Alex D. Karaczun

Ariel, rest assured it wasn't the price for a custom script I was objecting to. I'm sure you have more experience with that than me (considering my one and only commercial script took 6 months for creating a working concept only -- $450 would not be enough to cover those costs!). A fully custom job, plug-in or script, can be very expensive, and maintaining and updating it can be time consuming as well.
Karaczun: there are some major differences between scripts and plug-ins I need to mention. The same script can run, by and large, on both Mac and PC versions of InDesign, and with some luck on different versions of InDesign as well. Also, it has no influence at all on the document itself -- this can still be opened and edited without having the script installed.
A plug-in, on the other hand, works only on (a) a certain version of InDesign (you need different versions of the plug-in for different versions of ID), and (b) a certain platform (you need a Mac OS version or a Windows version). Also, depending on how the plug-in operates, it may be impossible to edit or even open the document on computers without the plug-in.

Edge detection between the finiteelement mesh and a bounding box

i have an finite element mesh ,i constucuted a bounding box which passes through the mesh ,so now i want to detect the edge of the rectangle which intersects the mesh and construct a new mesh which resides in the rectangular box.how to do this.any kind of help is appreciated.
P /------------------\ Q
A |---- |/---|-----|----|-----|--\--| B
|----/|----|-----|----|-----|---\-|
|---/-|----|-----|----|-----|----\|

D |-/---|----|-----|----|-----|---- | \ C

suppose ABCD is FEMesh, PQRS is a bounding box,consider the edge PS when it intersect with the elements in the mesh i will get the pentagon element when i want to form the new mesh which contains the elements which are inside the box.the graphical represenation is not clear if you draw on a paper you can easily understand my problem.
now how to create a new mesh from the elements which reside inside the boxin which the left hand side of PS will be discarded and RHS of QR edge is discarded,so now mesh will have some zigzag shape i think.so please help me out how to solve this problem.

i think the figure is not clear , so i want to
simplify the problem by considering only one element
of the mesh and only one edge of the box.Okay.
suppose ABCD
is a 3D quadrilateral element and PQ is the edge
passing through the element.i will pass a function
with coordinates of ABCD and P (startpoint of
edge)coordinate and its normal vector,if there is an
intersection the function should return 2 elements
according to intersection
now we have element ABCD and an edge with P and its
normal vector,now we have intersection between element
and edge from p at X and Y, now the algorithm should
return AXYD as one element and XBCY as second
element.please help me out in solving this task.
Thanks in advance.I'll assume you mean 2D, planar, linear quad. I think the general 3D problem would entail surfaces and be much more difficult. If you use higher order shape functions the 2D problem isn't trivial, because then you might have more than two intersections.
It COULD return two points of intersection, but you'll have to be careful about special cases:
(1) The edge could intersect just one of the four corners,
(2) The edge could coincide with an edge of the element,
(3) The edge could miss the element entirely and not intersect.
You'll have to decide what to do in the degenerate cases. The sensible thing would be to do nothing and leave the element alone.
You'll also be concerned about mesh quality when you're done. Near degenerate elements won't perform well when you analyze them. Will you try to correct these after the fact?
What if you end up with triangular elements? An edge might slice off a triangle and leave you with a five-noded element. What will you do with those? Create two triangles to get back to a quad? It's not so easy. You really should look into quadtree meshing. There are more general ways to attack a problem like this.
What kind of physics are you ultimately trying to capture? What are you really doing here?
You've described the algorithm fairly well, even if you haven't thought it all the way through.
What's the problem? You'll have to write the code. No one will do that for you. Write some and come back with specific questions if you have difficulties. This is a Java forum, after all.

Bounding Boxes (Importing Photoshop to After Effects)

Hey, I'm sorry if this is a stupid question and it seems like (hopefully) it's a one click easy fix but here goes.
When I import Photoshop files into After Effects the bounding boxes around the orignal grouped layers are the size of the project itself. To clarify the pre-existing layer "groups" in Photoshop that were converted to "compositions" in After Effects upon importing, all have bounding boxes that extend out to the dimensions of the entire project. When I click into the composition the layers have bounding boxes that mold to the layer size. I need the group/composition bounding box to extend to only the dimensions of the subsequent layers not the entire project. When I was using After Effects CS6 it reduced the bouding box of my group/compositions to the minimalist possible extent automatically. Now that I've been forced over to After Effects CC (on account that I use creative cloud) the bounding boxes are no longer conforming to the groups in the same manner.
I of course can find away around this by merging the groups and what not but I don't want to have to do that and I'm hoping there a little freaking check box or something that I'm not aware of. I don't know if this matters but I am using Windows 7 64bit. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yeah this problem never got officially resolved. For some reason they changed this in CC version of After Effects but as you said it was never like that in previous versions (at least it wasn't in CS6).
There are a couple of 'work-around' options for this problem but as I'm no expert I couldn't say whether these 'options' are the best way to handle this problem or not, just the best that I can come up with in my relatively limited experience and there are pros and cons to each... It also depends on what type of project you're working on. Anyway:
1) Go into your composition/group in After Effects and use the "Crop Region of Interest" function. This will readjust the bounding box to that composition but you'll need to resituate your composition so that it's in the right place as cropping the region of interest stupidly seems to moves it.
2) Create Null Objects and parent one of them to each moving composition. Situate all Null Object layers above your composition layers so each one is clickable
3) Create a special "group" in the Photoshop file you're working in and -copy- all of the layers in that Photoshop file into the new group that you just created. Merge all of the layers together that are meant to be a single moving object in After Effects. This will leave your original layers intact and when you import the PSD file into After Effects you'll have the merged layers you need that will automatically have appropriate bounding boxes.

PLEASE HELP! ASAP! Where's my bounding box? I bet no one knows how to fix this?

I'm currently trying to make a quick promo for my business, so i've purchased a template from envato.
I've then started to replace what they say i should replace.
I've then imported an image to replace the default one that you can see in the first attached image below.
The imported photo which is not seen needs to be resized by using the bounding box to suit my area given.
But everytime i double click the image, all i get is a picture with a time ruler at the base of it and no bounding box.
Can anyone help me please??????????????
THIS IS WHAT I GET (IMAGE BELOW)
THIS IS WHAT I NEED!!!! (IMAGE BELOW)

Really? Go to the menu and select View>Show/Hide Layer Controls or press Ctrl/Cmnd + Shift + H
If you save a project with them turned off then when you re-open the project they will still be turned off.
The info is right there in the menu and in the help files and in the keyboard shortcuts. If you search here:
you'll find this. AE is such a complex program with so many layers that it's imperative that you learn how to look for and find answers quickly. The Search Help field at the top right corner of the app will answer about half the questions posted on this forum.

Text put into a canvas element with context.fillText() always has a black box where each letter goes. If the text is black you just see the black rectangle. If the text is not black you see it on the black bounding box. Surely this is not right.

This has happened on the last few versions of firefox, as long as canvas has been supported. I see other people's screen shots from canvas tutorials, and the text always looks normal. On my system, any text put into a canvas element via context.fillText() will have a black bounding box for each letter, sized appropriately for the letter. If the text is black, of course you only see rectangles. If the text is a contrasting color, then you can read it, but it looks bizarre.

Thomas...same kind of crap here.
I used Custom Text - entered a sentence, hit return, entered another.
Set to 72 pt.
The default alignment is centred - I want left aligned text...the text start point stays at the centre of frame and the sentence runs off the edge of the bounding box.
There is no settings in the Text or Title inspector dialog to correct that!
Using Transform will not sort it!
