Avoid to group all the objects in different layers into a single layer

When I group objects to different layers, they all end up in single layer... I have a slight memory of what it is possible to the group object without affecting the layers... maybe a setting?

Vincent,

Crossposting: I was the addition of the procedure (which I posted accidentally before finishing).

Here's the Bill:

But you can create a selection across layers as follows, using the drop down selection:

Select objects, then > Save selection, selection of a name;

After that, the choice is displayed at the bottom of the drop-down list selection, available for selection (sorry)

  • SELECT SQL to merge the text of different lines into a single line

    Hello

    I need to create a Select statement to merge multiple lines in a single text. I have a table with the following data:
    SQL> DESC doc_comments
 Name                                                  Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------------------- -------- ------------------------------------
 DOC                                                            NUMBER

  2  /

       DOC COMMENTS
---------- ----------
         1 Note A
         1 Note B
         2 Note C
         2 Note D
         2 Note E
         3 Note F

6 rows selected.
    I need to create a query on the table to show a result like this:
    DOC          COMMENTS
------------ --------------------------
           1 Note A, Note B
           2 Note C, Note D, Note E
           3 Note F
    A possible solution would be to create a function to merge the text of the various lines and then use it in the query, but I'm not allowed to create any function in the database, I can use a simple SELECT statement.

    Any ideas on how I can do?

    Assuming that comments contain no vertical bar (|) character:

  • Can I move all the objects again selected layer without clicking hundreds of layer bars?

    I'm working on a complex illustrator file generated by GIS software. He gave me all kinds of groups of clip & road clip - what I really need, it's just to put all the same coloured polygons on the layer of a high level (unfortunately I can't draw all of my polygons in a group because illustrator doesn't pull these objects out of their existing clipping groups, and the card gets screwed completely upward if I release the clipping masks. With simple cards I have no problem Direct by selecting all of the polygons, I want, selecting their layers in the layers panel, then moving them to a new layer. This card is too complex, because there are hundreds of objects and hundreds of corresponding layers (they are not contiguous, or else I could simply click can be done with it).


    I used select > same > fill type to select all the polygons, I want that on a single layer, but I really hope that I don't have to select all the layers for each item one by one before I can move them to a new higher level layer. Does anyone know if there is a way to moving all the objects in a new layer selected without having to actually click all the layers in the Panel? Completely open to the alternative routes to my desired result!


    Thank you very much.

    Of course, after making the selection drag selection (to the right of the layer) icon on the desired layer. This will move any selected layer to the new layer.

  • Pathfinder will unite all the objects on each layer

    I wonder if anyone can help me with the script, which is unite mode form via pathfinder on all the objects on each layer.

    I manually activate a layer, pressing ctrl + a, and then clicking the shape mode button unit. Then, the layers are over 50 then, making him the great peace of time.

    function MergeAllLayers() {
    // exit early if there are no files open

    // clear selection

    Equal to true, the definition of the hasSelectedArtwork layer property is a fun thing to select the entire document on a layer, you've just got to make sure to disable any other settings first.

  • Receptive Slide height develops all the objects on the slide master background.

    Hey,.

    If I build a sensitive project and slides, I need to unlock the height of the slide in mobile mode on some slides to create a scrolling to display more content.

    When I adjust the height of the blade, it develops all the objects in the background of the slide (my header, title...). These elements are not merged.

    Is there anyway that I can adjust the height of the blade so that it is not developing all the objects on the slide, only the backdrop (i.e. the white canvas). I try to use a model of slides for content pages.

    Or is the only way around it to create a number of different slide masters with heights of slide?

    See you soon

    Hello

    I feel your pain. I struggled with this for a long time, but finally found a solution.

    If you want to extend the height of the blade, creating a scroll bar. But you want certain elements to stretch and others do not.


    Object to Extensible NOT / Static

    • Create in the Slide Master
    • Set the properties top and % Relative height.

    Stretch/dynamic objects

    • Create directly in slide film
    • Set the Top % Relative property
    • Set the Height property for % (not related).

    I recommend to create a slide film finalized and then duplicate this slide for all other instances.

    Let me know if it works.

  • Push all the objects in a tablespace to another

    Hello

    on the 11g R2 (11.2.0.3)

    We need to move all the objects in one tablespace to another.

    Is this possible?

    How can we push all the objects of a logical disk space to a different tablespace?

    Thank you.

    Generate the

    ALTER TABLE TableName MOVE TABLESPACE new_tbsname
    and

    ALTER INDEX REBUILD new_tbsname IndexName

    orders.  You can use "SQL Generation of SQL" or write a PLSQL WHERE USER_SEGMENTS loop.

    If you have some LOBs you must move the LOBs using
    ALTER TABLE TableName MOVE LOB (lobname) STORE AS LOBSEGMENT (TABLESPACE new_tbsname)

    We do not have the function to make items of the same size. You must change one by one. To change the .lks file may be more effective.

  • I don't see Smart Guides around all the objects on the artboard even if the guides are checked in view

    Hello

    First of all, I don't pretend to be some illustrator expert but I have a good understanding of the functions of Adobe Illustrator key.

    However, when I went to design a logo yesterday, I don't see smart guides (blue lines, see below with all selected items) around all the objects on the artboard even if the guides are checked in order. I do not expect the controls on each being showing unless they are selected, but I do that I expect to see the blue line itself.


    Picture1.png

    I contacted the Adobe Illustrator Chat but really, they do not seem to have a clue and seemed to be intentionally misunderstanding me despite the fact that I sent this image. They were also quite rude!

    In any case, I'm now desperate so someone here can help me please.

    Thank you very much

    Mike

    PS I looked everywhere online for a solution and tried some of those suggested but without success.

    You may not see an unselected object with no line or fill in preview mode (this is why it is called overview).

    You can select it when you don't have fill and stroke in the tools Panel and choose: select > same > background & contour.

  • Release of anchor all the objects/text images

    Dear all,

    It's my 1st question on AC (Adobe Community), so I'll explain what I need here in details and excuse me my little or even none experienced in coding, especially in Javascript.

    I have a book with many INDD files, these files have a lot of images and objects and text blocks are anchored to the main text area.

    I searched on AC for the way to free him from all my anchored object and the main text block text block. so I found the average script.

    I found her name "ReleaseAnyAnchor" created by 'Dave Saunders' to release the anchored object (graphics, text, else) but one by one. and it will take too much time to free myself from all the objects on the book. (the Script code is below)

    //DESCRIPTION: Release Inline & Anchored Items
//Written by Dave Saunders, released on indesignsecrets.com


(function() {
  if (app.documents.length > 0 && // must be a document open
  app.selection.length == 1 && // selection must be of single item
  app.selection[0].parent instanceof Character) { // selection must be anchored
  if (parseFloat(app.version) < 6) {
  releaseMe(app.selection[0]);
  } else {
  app.doScript(releaseMe, undefined, app.selection[0], UndoModes.entireScript, "Release Any Anchor");
  }
  } else {
  alert("Please select an inline item.");
  }


  function releaseMe(myPI) {
  var yePage = findPage(myPI);
  var startBounds = myPI.geometricBounds;
  myPI.anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition = AnchorPosition.anchored;
  myPI.anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
  if (yePage != null) {
  myPI.move(yePage);
  }
  myPI.move([startBounds[1], startBounds[0]]);
  }


  function findPage(theObj) {
  if (theObj.hasOwnProperty("baseline")) {
  theObj = theObj.parentTextFrames[0];
  }
  while (theObj != null) {
  if (theObj.hasOwnProperty("parentPage")) return theObj.parentPage;
  var whatIsIt = theObj.constructor;
  switch (whatIsIt) {
  case Page : return theObj;
  case Character : theObj = theObj.parentTextFrames[0]; break;
  case Cell : theObj = theObj.insertionPoints[0].parentTextFrames[0]; break;
  case Note : ; case Footnote : theObj = theObj.storyOffset; break;
  case Application : return null;
  }
  if (theObj == null) return null;
  theObj = theObj.parent;
  }
  return theObj
  } // end findPage


}());


    also, I found another script which release all of the graphic objects, but not objects of text frame. (I get it from AC, but I remember exactly the place where.)


    if(app.documents.length!=0) {
    var ad = app.activeDocument;
    var pgit = ad.pageItems;
    var pgitlg = pgit.length;
    var objprocessed = 0;
    if(pgitlg !=0)
    {
        for(i=0; i<pgitlg; i++)
        {
            if(pgit[i].getElements()[0].constructor.name == "TextFrame")
            {
                var tfg = pgit[i].allGraphics;
                var tfglg = tfg.length;
                for(j=0; j<tfglg; j++)
                {
                    var rec = tfg[j].parent;
                    rec.anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
                }
            }
        }
    }
}


    all codes work well for me, but I need to try to merge or make a new code [as I mentioned that I don't have experiences in JS, so I do not know how to compile a new code that do the 2 steps of the 2 codes.]


    my request is, could you please help me to do this new code, or merge to compile a new code in the new file.


    I saw this topic releasing objects anchored and want to make a new script.


    Please try to help me as soon as POSSIBLE because I need this script to all my object anchored to begin working on the output file.


    I need the code works on any version of INDESIGN.


    Thanks guys, waiting for you.


    AMR

    AHA. If you need test whether a line is an anchor. If this is the case, use. releaseAnchoredObject(), if it is not, the simplest is to make an anchor, then release it:

    if (pageItems[i].parent instanceof Character) {
    if (pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition !== AnchorPosition.ANCHORED) {
        pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.anchoredPosition = AnchorPosition.ANCHORED;
    }
    pageItems[i].anchoredObjectSettings.releaseAnchoredObject();
}

    It works, but I don't know if the results are what you're after.

  • Export all the objects with PowerCli

    Hello

    I'm not in VSphere or vmware but a Director of SCOM and I am currently working on a solution to monitor our VCenter with SCOM server. To be able to automatically resolve alerts, I would need to find a way to export a list with all the objects of the VCenter server to create them as instances in SCOM and map the error directly state events to these objects.

    I think that this should be possible with PowerCli so the plan was to have a script export this list frequently and run a discovery of the SCOM Agent Script to automatically create related instances. Does anyone know how this export could be made with PowerCli? Since I'm not in vmware / vsphere and we don't have a test environment, but only the Production System in our office, I am somewhat limited in trying just by the cmdlets to discover this.

    No matter what pointer in the right direction which cmdlets can achieve this is as welcome as script ideas that could help me out here.

    Thanks and greetings

    Marco

    OK, I see.

    When you want to display a map, it is better to load the objects requested in advance and update them regularly.

    Have you ever thought about what you want to see on the map?

    A hierarchy of the sample could be

    vCenter(s)                                     <- in $defaultVIServer after a Connect-VICenter
  datacenter(s)                              <- Get-Datacenter -Server 
   cluster(s)                                   <- Get-Cluster -Server 
      resource pool(s)                     <- Get-Resourcepool -Location (Get-Cluster )
         guest(s)                               <- Get-VM -Location (Get-Resourcepool )
      vmhost(s)                               <- Get-VmHost -Location (Get-Cluster 
         datastores                           <- Get-Datastore -Location (Get-VMHost )
         network
            vswitches                         <- Get-VirtualSwitch -VMHost (Get-VMHost )
                portgroup(s)                 <- Get-VirtualPortgroup -VMHost (Get-VMHost )
   standalone host(s)
      guest(s)
      datastores
      network
         vswitches
             portgroup(s)

    I added some of the cmdlets that you can use to get items for a specific branch of the hierarchy.
