Annoying "feature": strings with a space - format update failure

• Replace the string with the formatted text

  Hello all - I'm back to my beloved project...

  I want to replace a string by a TextSelction (formatted text) and began with the famous feature of Jang FindAndReplaceString.
  Since my replacement comes from another document (sourceDoc), I edited to targetDoc activeDoc and introduced a second document (sourceDoc).
  The replacePara actually comes from a stone where he had been placed to avoid switch backwards between the documents in a book (where to find and replace) and source documents. In another function, I learned that information on the table requires the sourceDoc must remain open.

  • Of course, everything works fine until I want to insert the replacelement:
    erase line 26 is the string
  • Given that I do not insert a string, I skip lines 28 and 29 and try try line 30
  • On line 30 DocumentSource is Document object and replacePare object TextSelection. However, sourceDoc.replacePara is not set and
  • (as a result?) line 31 past the current contents of the Clipboard.

  Of course, there is a fog around me... and I need some sunshine.

  function FindAndReplacePara (targetDoc, findString, sourceDoc, replacePara, loopMax) {
    var tr = new TextRange();
    var restoreTR, frame = 0, loopCounter = 0, replacementCounter = 0;
    var findParams = new PropVals();
    var firstPgf = targetDoc.MainFlowInDoc.FirstTextFrameInFlow.FirstPgf;
    
    tr.beg.obj = tr.end.obj = firstPgf;             //  set up the starting text range as the very beginning
    tr.beg.offset = tr.end.offset = 0;              // of the flow. We'll move straight from beginning to end.
    trSaved = tr                                    // to come back after work
  
    findParams = AllocatePropVals(2);
    
    findParams[0].propIdent.num = Constants.FS_FindText;
    findParams[0].propVal.valType = Constants.FT_String;
    findParams[0].propVal.sval = findString;
    
    findParams[1].propIdent.num = Constants.FS_FindCustomizationFlags;
    findParams[1].propVal.valType = Constants.FT_Integer;
    findParams[1].propVal.ival = Constants.FF_FIND_CONSIDER_CASE;
  
    FA_errno = Constants.FE_Success;                // errno global, to be used to track the progress of the find and replace
    tr = targetDoc.Find(tr.beg, findParams);        // and do an initial find to get started.
    
    while(FA_errno === Constants.FE_Success && loopCounter++ < 2*loopMax) { //find and replace loop as long as we keep finding
      targetDoc.TextSelection = tr;                 // set up the text range to clear the original text
      targetDoc.Clear(0);                           // clear it
      
  //    targetDoc.AddText(tr.beg, replacePara);       // insert the new text at the original beginning of the text range
  //    tr.beg.offset += replacePara.length;          //  lets jimmy the text range in memory to place it directly after
      targetDoc.TextSelection = sourceDoc.replacePara;        // paste the whole replacement paragraph
      targetDoc.Paste (0);                          // <-- Current contents of clipboard is pasted !!!!
      if(FA_errno === Constants.FE_Success) {       // increment our return counter
        replacementCounter++;
      }
      FA_errno = Constants.FE_Success;              // ...  find the next instance. We'll reset FA_errno again just in case
      tr = targetDoc.Find(tr.beg, findParams);      // something screwy happened while we were replacing text.
    }
    targetDoc.ScrollToText(trSaved);                // we're done. Restore the document to it's original area of display
    return replacementCounter;
  } // --- end FindAndReplacePara
  

  Hi Klaus,

  Thanks for the explanation. I remember something like that GetTabRange of the way back. You have been quite patient and persistent with this project, indeed.

  So, as we are dealing with ranges of text here, I think that the only simple approach is to perform a copy and paste. There is no way to save a 'formatted' in a variable. The only super precise way would be to get a data structure of each text range TextItems in the sourceDoc, then meticulously recreate every element of the targetDoc. It would be very complicated, I think, so copy and paste seems the most logical. I wonder, though, if Miss me something, because I think that maybe you would have tried already so yes (?)

  In any case, I would do something like that, from line 30 of your original code sample (code untested here):

  App. ActiveDoc = sourceDoc;

  sourceDoc.TextSelection = replacePara;

  sourceDoc.Copy (0);

  App. ActiveDoc = targetDoc;

  targetDoc.Paste (0);

  ... etc.

  Does make sense, or am I barking the wrong tree, as they say?

• Installer of Lexmark printer drivers saved in a folder "c:\Program Files \" (with a space at the end of this one!)

  I have a real problem.

  On my Windows 7 Professional machine somehow is an automatic update of installed Lexmark printer drivers and the installation program saved files
  in a folder names "c:\Program Files \" (with a space at the end of this one!)

  This all happened the day after without seeing me what was going on.

  It seems that the Windows 7 system does not like the folder or file names ending in a 'space' or a 'period' and it will not work with it.

  The side effect is that in some sort the system has copied EACH name on this new folder called sub0folder "C:\Program Files-" and I ended up with TWO files that have the air of the same name (even if we have a space at the edn of it ".

  It isn't really a problem in what I could simply ignore it (the other folder names corrrectly operates always OK). The only problem is that changes to 'Security' affect the TWO files because Windows 7 sees the two folder as the 'same' names when setting security.

  That's why, when I tried to mark the 'bogus' as 'not available' folder to everyone (including the system) it is the same for 'Program Files' (the real one) with disastrous consequences. I had the chance to get out and restore some semb; launched sound mind to my machine.

  But I'm stuck now with this annoying issue with many sub-fdolers (which are all unaccessable because the system cannot locate).

  My question is, how to remove a file that has a 'space' as the last part of his name when Windows Explorer cannot work with it?

  Thanks a lot with no matter what helpf with this very unusual problem.

  If you have the opportunity to make a complete picture of the system of the disc, I would before you try the following... just in case remove the "bad" folder ends up deleting all good also.  Alternatively, rather than remove the directory in the last step below, rename it using a command like

  ren c:\PROGRA~3 c:\badprogs {press Enter}

  If program of the 'real' the files and other directories survive unscathed, and then delete the C:\badprogs in the usual way.

  ******************************************

  In the search box, type cmd, then right click on cmd.exe and select "Run as Administrator".  Give the password when you are prompted.

  Type

  CD c:\  {Press Enter}

  to switch to the root

  Now type

  dir /x {press Enter}

  This will show you a list of directories of names "short form".  You will probably see something like this (from a x 64 Win 7 installation, is why there "Progra ~ 1" and "Progra ~ 2" directories ")

  Directory of c:\

  01/08/2012 13:19

  PROGRA ~ 1 Program Files
  30/07/2012 13:03 PROGRA ~ 2 Program Files (x 86)
  03/07/2012 10:46 users
  30/07/2012 20:16 Windows

  In your case, your directory parasite called or PROGRA ~ 3 (if you have x 64) or PROGRA ~ 2 (if you have Windows 7 32 bit).

  Now that you know the name short, which allows to delete:

  del C:\progra~3 {press Enter}

• With regard to the update of the locations of cards-oracle

  HII everyone,

  In my application, we using mapviewer, which was installed locally on our server, for map rendering and showing the locations of a client like pinball machines.

  Suppose that some places (address, City) is updated map... How mapviewer (which has been installed on our server locally) will update this site all in rendering...

  Thank you

  learner

  It depends on how you got the map features.  Mapfeatures are usually stored in the cache.  If a change in database may not appear in the card immediately.  If, however, given the characteristics of the map as a vectorlayer, then simple vector update updates map.  You should consider two options with regard to the update database process.  You can store the geometry as a function that is updated on the fly as change attributes of database, or you may use a database trigger to update the geometry when the attributes change.  Thus, using a combination of correct space architecture and mapviewer correct functions.

• Chop the string "with ellegance.

  First of all, forgive me if my question has already been answered. It occurs to me that is not an uncommon problem, but yet I can't find the magic words to find this wonderful community for answers. That's why you'll also find the subject so vague... Sorry about that too.

  By the way, I have a localized application, with a few screens of dialogue / contextual which present a variety of localized user messages. What I feel is, according to the language and/or the size of the screen of the device that I run my application, some (long) chains are cut to mke the whole string go in the dialogue/popup screen. What makes the chain appear in several lines, but not with an "elegant" layout What I want is to control such a "chop" to make it more "user-friendly" as possible... Of course, placing it the chains '\n' is not a valid solution, because it is always dependent on the device.

  I hope my explanation is clear enough... and again sorry if the answer is obvious.

  Thanks in advance

  There is none of these methods. You can do it yourself, of course, but it won't be better, I think that you will have the same boundaries as the method of the rim.

  an option would be to use a different popupscreen, perhaps with more space or a regular arrangement.

• How to concatenate strings with the lines of a text file

  Hello
  I tried concatenate strings with the lines of a text file, but something is wrong with my code and I belive is the agruments I use in the cycle for. If anyone can help me I will appreciate it very much.
  My code is:
  [code]@echo off
  the value "input=C:\Users\123\Desktop\List.txt".
  for /f "usebackq tokens = *" % in (' input % ') do)
  the value 'str1 = C:\some directory\ ".
  the value ' str2 = %% ~ F '.
  the value "str3 = .pdf".
  the value "str4 = str1% str2% str3%.
  echo.%STR4%
  ) [/ code]
  and the text file is something like:
  121122 [code]
  122233
  123344
  124455 [/ code]
  But I get only one wrong answer and I have to run it like 3 times to get a real result and it is a mistake, the first two are empty spaces and gives the third one as the last line of the text file but repeated n times, where n is the number of lines in the text file.
  Result:
  [code] C:\Users\123\Desktop>concatenate.bat
  C:\Users\123\Desktop>concatenate.bat
  C:\Users\123\Desktop>concatenate.bat
  C:\some directory\124455.pdf
  C:\some directory\124455.pdf
  C:\some directory\124455.pdf
  C:\some directory\124455.pdf
  C:\some directory\124455.pdf
  C:\Users\123\Desktop>[/code]
  So if anyone has an idea about what is wrong please let me know.

• DB_CONFIG documentation says that the lines with white spaces are ignored

  Berkeley DB is used for a long time and just noticed something when I was reading the docs for the latest version (Berkeley DB 12 c Release 1, version of the 12.1.6.1.26 library: (June 16, 2015)). The documentation for DB_CONFIG (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17076_04/html/programmer_reference/env_db_config.html) contains the following sentence: all empty lines or lines whose first character is a space or hash character (#) is ignored.

  This is false. The lines that begin with white space are not ignored. All leading white space are skipped until the line is checked to see if it is empty or the first character of the other is a hash character.

  I went back and checked a few old versions of Berkeley DB. Docs and code reading DB_CONFIG did did not match for a very long time. Did not come back through all the old versions of Berkeley DB to see if they have ever matched.

  We checked this and found that leading whitespace is ignored.   We will update docs accordingly.    Thank you for this comment.

  Thank you

• Something wrong with the .png format!

  Hey everyone, anyone!

  All of you have noticed that there is a problem with the .png format? I've been on several maps now looking for an answer. Everyone does not have people like they are noobs to the whole process.

  I'm not a noob, far from it. But I can not save a transparent .png on any format.

  Here are a few facts.

  If I save it as a .png on my mac, it is not transparent, even if it shows as transparent in the document.

  I used 24 bit, I checked the Alpha channel and even made an alpha mask.

  If I drag it to my pc, it will be displayed as transparent.

  But... If I save a .png on the pc, there's always the white background on the mac.

  I have icons on folders and documents that are transparent, that I copied and pasted a few weeks previously, but these same exact files cannot be copied and pasted as transparent plus.

  I first noticed a question .png on an application that I use on a daily basis on my ipad. I thought it was just a problem of the timer with the new update system 8.

  I don't have the new Apple update system on my ipad, iMac or a Macbook Pro.

  All three of them are unable to see a transparent .png file.

  Boards are also full of people who are unable to write a transparent .png of fireworks, inkscape, gimp or photoshop!

  The forums all over the internet are full of windows pc that can't see a transparent .png file. What happened, what has changed? What is going on?

  Everyone on a track of insiders who can give an overview of this problem?

  In case anyone is wondering, I found the solution. I had a thought pop in my head (I learned to listen to those!) What happens if it's the Mac desktop, that's the question? So I put the folder in a finder window, pasted the icon and wallah! I have transparency! How wild is that? This seems like a bug of Mac for me! What do you think all?

  I thought I post a response here in case someone else has this problem! Case solved!

  See the image below...

  

• Is it possible to create the text block with non-uniform formatting is applied to the text?

  Hi all

  By this script

  var doc = app.documents.add(70, 20, 300, "Test", NewDocumentMode.RGB);
  var textLayer = doc.artLayers.add();
  textLayer.name = "Text";
  textLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
  
  var solidColorRef = new SolidColor();
  solidColorRef.rgb.red = 0;
  solidColorRef.rgb.green = 174;
  solidColorRef.rgb.blue = 239;
  
  var ti = textLayer.textItem;
  with (ti) {
       contents = "Blah-blah-blah!";
       kind = TextType.PARAGRAPHTEXT;
       height = new UnitValue("20 mm");
       width = new UnitValue("70 mm");
       position = [ new UnitValue("0 mm"), new UnitValue("0 mm") ];
       font = "MinionPro-Bold";
       size = new UnitValue("24 pt");
       color = solidColorRef;
       justification = Justification.CENTER;
  }
  

  So I can create a block of text with uniform like formatting

  
  But, as far as I understand it, it is impossible to make an image and apply different sizes, colors, etc. (Please confirm or refute it).

  To achieve the result by script as follows:

  

  The r to Browse datashows the formatting only to the beginning of this text.

  
  What I want to achieve is to take a block of text in the InDesign document and re-create it in psd-file. (The text must be editable)

  Y at - it another way to achieve this: by plug-ins, extensions, incantation, etc.?

  Kind regards
  Kasyan

  So that other things I noticed, it's text.jsx does not work with UnitValues. It uses the action Manager to work with textRanges. And it seems that Adobe changed the textItem units operating. Therefore, it is difficult to understand what values to use. Text.addNewTextLayer () and Text.modifyTextLayer () seem to what different values for the text of the same size.

  So below is an example updated the PS-Scripts-post on how to create a text layer with different textRanges using the current text.jsx.Note I've hard-coded sizes for that to work as I had hoped.

  function tsrDemo(doc) {
       var doc = app.documents.add(new UnitValue(70,'mm'), new UnitValue(20,'mm'), 300, "Test", NewDocumentMode.RGB);
       // we want to create a new text layer so create a new TextOptions with the contents as the argument
        var opts = new TextOptions("Blah-blah-blah!");
         // override the default settings
         opts.layerName = "Test";
         opts.kind = TextType.PARAGRAPHTEXT;
         opts.height = 800;// pixels
         opts.width = 200;
         opts.position = [ 0, 0 ];// pixels
         opts.justification = Justification.CENTER;
         opts.font = Text.findFont("Minion Pro Bold");
         opts.size = 6;// not sure what unit this needs
         opts.color = Text.toRGBColor(0, 174, 239);
  
         // create a new text layer with those options
       var layer = Text.addNewTextLayer(doc, opts);
  
         var opts = new TextOptions( layer.textItem);
         opts.contents = layer.textItem.contents;
         // now need to construct TextStyles for each range we want to set
         // for ranges we can only change the font, size, and color
         // first set a textStyle that matches the TextOptions
        var s1 = new TextStyle(undefined,undefined,undefined);
         // now set a textStyle for each different style you want
        var s2 = new TextStyle(undefined, 12, Text.toRGBColor(0, 0,0));// for some reason size values here are not the same scale as above
         // define more TextStyles as needed. here we only need one
  
        // Now create the set of ranges to apply the styles over
        var ranges = new TextStyleRanges();
         // the first range must start at 0.  In this example we want the first range unchanged
         // so we use the TextStyle that matches the TextOptions
         // this range covers the entire contents
        ranges.add(new TextStyleRange(0, opts.contents.length, s1));
         // this range covers the middle 'blah'
         ranges.add(new TextStyleRange(5, 9, s2));
          // we now add the ranges we set to the TextOptions
        opts.ranges = ranges;
  
         Text.modifyTextLayer(doc, opts, doc.activeLayer); 
  
      };
  
      tsrDemo();
