Character width (less info)?

• Character code how to associate its width

  I have a PDF with TrueType fonts having the width of table. How can I recover the character width when it is read via operator Tj ? I was able build the CTM via operator cm as well as manipulate in other text positioning of operators. Now, I would like to get the text rectangle by 'extension' of the area through CTM (addition of height and width of the police to the existing CTM) and I would like to know how can I retrieve the width for each character of the said widths of table?

  Indices in the array of widths corresponding to the CID or the GID of the character/glyph rendering.

• Can I dig deeper for info OS?

  
  Hello

  Part 1

  Using the Get - VM and Get-VMGuest, I can get a range of elements. However what I can't do are things like:

  -Service Pack installed

  -The person who created the virtual machine?

  -Last connection to the machine (person id)

  Are these pieces of information available IF the virtual machine runs via a feature of vmware tools in the guest OS? (i.e. to assume vmware tools is installed and the virtual machine is running)

  Part 2

  Some of our ESX are old, i, e, 3.5 rather than 4.0, I guess that means I don't think OS Info? or there is another way?

  There are 2 other options to get the info on the guest operating system (and I guess that your guest operating system is a Windows operating system).

  (1) the guest operating system is accessible, then you can use the Get-WmiObject cmdlet to get this information

  Get-WmiObject-class Win32_OperatingSystem - ComputerName MyPC | Select *.

  (2) the guest operating system is not available, then use the Invoke-VMScript cmdlet to browse the Get-WmiObject inside the guest OS the VMware Tools (which must be installed).

  $vm = get-VM-name MyVM

  Invoke VMScript - VM $vm - ScriptType PowerShell - ScriptText "Get-WmiObject-class Win32_OperatingSystem".

  To get information about who created the virtual machine, you can use the Get-VIEvent cmdlet and look for entries VMCreatedEvent .

  There are several examples of these methods in this community.

• Character spacing

  I'm more familiar with Photoshop and decided to create business cards available in there.  I like how they look, but my printer is having a hard time with the files.  Also, I think it would be better to save my files in illustrator as vectors.  So I downloaded the demo of Illustrator to see how it is easy to use.

  I finished most of the presentation of the card, but I'm having a problem.  It seems that Photoshop gave each character equal spacing of text on a line.  Illustrator does not do that; Instead, it has a smaller width character for the number '1' and '9' wide width.  This is shaking my layout a bit because I'm doing the following:

  (800) 555-1234 Office

  cellular (800) 555-4321

  (800) 555-9876 fax

  In Photoshop, the office, the words cell and fax line up perfectly (as they do in this forum).  But in Illustrator they are not aligned at all because the spacing of the characters for telephone numbers vary with the nature.  Is there a way to fix this?  I tried to disable by using the system configuration and fractional character widths, but it made no difference.

  Thank you.

  EDIT: To be clear, I am reproducing a layout of card that I created in Photoshop by using Illustrator.  The fonts are the same.  However, I created the file on a PC Photoshop and I'm recreating this schema using Illustrator on Mac.  Not sure if that makes a difference for my character spacing problem.

  Franklin Gothic is perhaps one of the last fonts which adds additional kerning between the numbers. If you turn off kerning (set to '0' instead of 'Auto' or 'Metrics' or whatever), they line up properly.

  This tip, by the way, works only if the police is in fact designed to have same spaced numbers in the first place! Your FG do not know with certainty, but it triggers a few neurons for me.

• Problem of numbered list in InDesign using paragraph Styles Code syntax highlighter

  Styles using GREP in the options of styles paragraph that I managed to make it useful, HTML, CSS, and Javascript, styles of syntax highlighter.

  Code can be copied and pasted, or can be typed and styles work well. .

  My only problem is with the numbering.

  I've implemented a character list ordered for my type of chip.

  Although the size of characters must be greater than the size of the code in order to get the character bar to connect and be a solid line.

  Is there a way to have the same size font for the numbering and the code and a bar of character which will connect? Do not be destroyed, because the separator between the numbered lines and the code?

  Also it doesn't seem to be a way to change the color or the weight of the bar (it must be the same color as the number) with a bar automatically generate? Is it possible?

  Here is an example of my InDesign CC 2015.4 German I did with a numbered list numbering and bar with a shading of paragraph:

  

  

  

  Note that the width of the 'bar' would change, if you change the width of the text block.

  5 mm added to the width of the text block:

• Extract metadata from jpeg to PS CC 2015.5 file

  Hello

  Is there a way where we can extract the dimensions (width x height, in picas), color data (RGB, CMYK or grayscale) and the resolution of the image (in pixels per inch dpi). for a jpeg file, which was created in PS CC 2015.5

  Maybe a script or plugin.

  FYI - we want to make a batch to process more maybe 300 to 400 files to extract the metadata.

  Concerning

  Ray

  OK, here's the code ExifTool :

  ExifTool - r - line: ImageWidth - leader: ImageHeight - File: ColorComponents - JFIF: XResolution - JFIF: YResolution - IFD0:XResolution - IFD0:YResolution - IFD0:ResolutionUnit - csv "/ users/loggedinusername/Desktop/test ' > ' / Users/loggedinusername/Desktop/exiftool-metadata-dump.csv'ext - .jpg

  The output looks like this (reformatted for display of .csv):

  = /Users/loggedinusername/Desktop/test/IMG-CMYK.jpg

  Image width: 2448

  Image height: 3264

  Color components: 4

  X resolution: 72

  Resolution Y: 72

  Resolution unit: inch

  = /Users/loggedinusername/Desktop/test/IMG-Gray.jpg

  Image width: 2448

  Image height: 3264

  Color components: 1

  X resolution: 72

  Resolution Y: 72

  Resolution unit: inch

  = /Users/loggedinusername/Desktop/test/IMG-RGB-SFWL.jpg

  Image width: 2448

  Image height: 3264

  Color components: 3

  The first two images were recorded via file > save as, so that they have more information in them to be extracted. The third has been saved save for Web (inheritance), excluding all the metadata, so there is less info available.

  You may need to do a find/replace in a spreadsheet to replace the column component color, change 1 in grayscale, RGB 3 and 4 in CMYK.

  I can explain the CLI code more in detail if necessary (I applied to false syntax highlighting to help break the elements). This code is formatted for Mac OS, MS Windows would use all right double quotation marks ' and the------expected file path of formatting. "

  I hope this helps.

• Wrap text around a table in the same period, possible?

  Is it possible to get the text to wrap around a table, without having to make the array in its own framework (as a separate object)? Of course the table would have its width less than the width of the text block, enough so that the text could flow into the empty space next to it (see photo).

  

  It is my intention to do them in the same frame so that she would follow the traffic whenever there are changes. I know that I can use the anchored object tool, but it has its limitations (which must be on the same page as - and - below the insertion point). When I do a report with sequential numbering - as in this case the notes, table and figures, etc. - and correctly generate a table of contents (to be in order) depends very much on the position of each element (even the location of the insertion points). If an item is in the same frame, or as a separate object, affects the sequence. Even notes must be in the same continuous framework to work correctly.

  From the point of view of InDesign, a table is just a text character, although it still occupies a full range in itself. You cannot add wrap at a table, only a framework containing.

• Remove the entry from the ARP table

  I need to create a program to remove an entry in the ARP table in Windows 7 with LabVIEW and TestStand.  The test that I develop contacts ESA via Ethernet.  Each HAD has the same IP address at the beginning but different MAC addresses.  I note that there may be long delays in test is running when you try to connect and remove the previous entry in the ARP table seems to help.  But now I have to do it manually through the command line.  The command 'arp d' requires elevated privileges.  I had a hard time getting LabVIEW to raise the system exec.  Does anyone have an ideas? Is there a .NET access to the ARP table?

  Thank you

  Paul

  I'll try to look into ARP sync settings setting in Windows.

  We have suffered from various problems of connection-performance TCP a few years ago and our solution was to change the default number of TCP sockets and delays (we knew port exhaustion). The tweeks eliminated most of our problems, no changes to code LV/TS not required.

  I tried to find info on ARP parameters for Windows 7, but it seems that there is much less info available that ther is for XP.

  Key words of the most common registry for older versions of Windows have been 'ArpCacheLife' and 'ArpCacheMinReferencedLife.

  EDIT:

  These parameters were apparently kidnapped in Vista. I found this on the site of $ M; they can apply to later versions, as well as M$ is a request for change to the management of the ARP...

• (MIS-) understanding order HP-GL/2 SR when using PCL coordinates

  Just try to understand HP-GL/2 in a bit more details that I did in the past, and there's something I'm not understand with using the command of SR for stretch the size of characters.

  It works if I use 600 user-units-per-inch and the HP-GL/2 default axes (the values are rising to the TOP page).

  SC0,1.6933,0,1.6933,2;          Scale sets user units = 600 per-inch
  

  with tags preceded by different orders of the SR , such as:

  SR5,4;            Set Relative Character Width  & Height as 5% / 4% of P1/P2 rectangle
  
  SR5,2;            Set Relative Character Width  & Height as 5% / 2% of P1/P2 rectangle
  
  SR10,2;           Set Relative Character Width  & Height as 10% / 2% of P1/P2 rectangle
  

  But if I change the axes to match the coordinate system PCL (the values Y increasing down the page):

  SC0,1.6933,0,-1.6933,2          Scale sets user units = 600 per-inch, with Y-axis reversed
  
  IR0,100,0,100     Input Relative P1 and P2
  

  as stated in the Manual PCL5 & HP-GL/2 (well I still not understand what makes the IR command), the same commands SR does not display anything (I think because the characters are too small to print).

  ... and even if I use the maximum (32767) value for the width or height, stretching is nowhere near as well as printed using small values of SR original with the HP-GL/2 y-axis Setup.

  I believe that the example (in PCL5 Technical Reference manual, table 19-5 "toadapt the system of coordinates of HP-GL/2 depending on the PCL in guidance system was") is incorrect.

  The correct IR command expected to be:

  IR0,100,100,0
  

  It fits logically with the specification of the IR (input Relative P1 and P2) command that she "established places of P1 and P2 as a percentage of the image of PCL.

  The command is in the format:

  IR XP1,YP1,[XP2,YP2;]
  

  where 'the X coordinates is specify the location of the P1 (and, possibly, P2) as percentages of the PCL Photo Frame limits.

  To make this more clear, the situation of default (HP-GL/2 y axis) where P1 is lower left, and P2 is in top right of the image. the IR by default coordinates are 0,0,100,100:

  

  Now consider the situation 'adapt' (PCL y-axis), where P1 is at the top left, and P2 is in bottom right of the photo frame. the correct IR coordinates are (I think) 0,100,100,0:

  

  The only other change that must be made is with the SR command: because the value of P2Y-P1Y is now negative, the coordinate of the height of the control should now also be negative; for example:

  SR5,-4
  

• create a carousel of world BB

  Hi, what is the most simple/better approach to achieve an Image carousel as that of the BB World apps proposed carousel?

  Any idea?

  Thank you!!!

  The easiest way is probably to create a horizontal list, fill it with images (probably with a rendering of the custom element), then scroll programmatically by using the scrollToIndex() method every few seconds.

  Another method, in simple Flash, would be to create a Sprite, add pictures to this sprite, and then animate the scrollRect property. If your sprite's width less than full screen, you need to hide it. You will also need to manage drag/drag, if you want your ride to be interactive that way.

  Simple Flash is potentially faster, because it would contain less overhead, but do not forget that considerable efforts have been set UI of BB to optimize it for the device. If you don't know exactly what you are doing, it is probably best to use BB controls. But for simple things, approach of the ether is probably fine.

• Question regarding setExtent and getPreferredWidth for the custom field

  I am trying to understand the difference between getPreferredWidth and setExtent, which relate to the width of a custom field.

  I create a field that may be greater than the width of the screen. The field is made up of cells (for example columns and lines or cells, such as a table). The cells contain text, shapes, lines, color, etc. When I display the field I only paint the visible columns on the screen and allow the user to use the trackball to accomplish the columns out of the screen.

  At present, getPreferredWidth returns the total width of the field without all the empty columns, is longer than the width of the screen. I use the same value in setExtent for width. GetPreferredWidth must return the size of the field that is painted on the screen - the total width less the width of the columns out of the screen? I have the same question about setExtent - width either in total, longer than the screen width or the width of the part of the field that is painted on the screen?

  If I use the width of what is painted on the screen or the other of these methods, then the width changes when the user scrolls through the field. As the user scrolls, I calculate the number of columns will agree to a width of the screen and paint these columns. Is it a problem to have the PreferredWidth and the setExtent change width? I read that setExtent is called only when the Manager sets this field, so that the changes will not be recognized.

  It seems to work in two ways in a few simple tests, but I was just curious as the value of width that is right.

  Thank you!

  When a field has changed in a way that requires the update of the screen (for example, after scrolling offset changes), simply call invalidate() from this area. That will eventually lead to paint (Graphics) for the field. At this point, you return the update field. (If only part of a field - as a single cell - needs to be updated, there invalidate() versions that accept arguments where, for efficiency, you can limit the update for just this part.)

  If I understand your needs, you can achieve the effect desired in the paint method. You can use the current dimensions of the field, the cutting of the graphics area, and your internal roll compensates to decide what to paint and what to delete. Let your custom field leave white space where you decide of doesn't make is not part of a cell. There is no need to change the scope of the field.

  If you go about it by changing the dimensions of the field, and then you ask the system to play much more work he has to do. If the custom field is the only field on the screen, it won't make much difference in the behavior (although there may be performance). With more than one field, it can be weird effects. For example, suppose that your custom field is one of several fields in a HorizontalFieldManager and you change the field width. When the HorizontalFieldManager recalculates its own layout, it will change the horizontal position of the fields to the right. The effect on the user, I think, would be really confusing: as the custom field parade, parties to the right of the screen could bounce left and right as the changed width field. I can't imagine that's what you want.

  Here's another way to think about this: absent some bit of style, your custom field would prefer be exactly wide and high enough to show all without scrolling. So the width and height would be based on adding the appropriate cell widths and heights, regardless of what actually is on the display. (It's also a long time that you do not have something fanciful.) If the optimum height is a function of the width available - as with sheathed on the line of text - you would implement this logic in the layout method. You then have no use for autonomous preferred width and height).

• record videos in windows live movie maker

  I made a movie out of a lot of short sections of music video, added and now cannot save it - it gets 65% and then said only: "unable to save". I used the camera several times before to capture videos and music never comes from the same source as, so I don't understand what goes wrong. The amount of information is too big for Windows Live? If so, how re - record video films library so that it is formatted with less info in there?

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Thank you.

• DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS problem

  Greetings...

  I'm having a problem with some texts that overlap in a custom list field.  In this list box, I am each line drawing and layout on the top left, top right, a line text below and then a text on the bottom.  The problem I have is that the DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS are not the... If the text on the top-left and top right are too long, and instead they overlap.

  /***********************************************/
  / * * top_left_text top_right_text * /.
  /* ***  -------------------------------------------------  */
  /* ***  bottom_text                                              */
  /***********************************************/

  Is it possible that I can accomplish this?  I need to use DrawText and I need help texts that are left and right aligned who overlap on the other.

  Thanks in advance!

                  offsetY = (this.getRowHeight() - icon.getHeight()) / 2;                g.drawBitmap(1, y + offsetY, icon.getWidth(), icon.getHeight(), icon, 0, 0);                g.setColor(ROW_HEADER_FG_COLOR);                g.setFont(fontBold);                g.drawText(top_left_text[index], icon.getWidth() + PADDING, y + 5, (DrawStyle.LEFT + DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS), width);                g.setColor(ROW_DETAILS_FG_COLOR);                g.setFont(fontPlain);                g.drawText(top_right_text[index], PADDING * -1, y + 5, (DrawStyle.RIGHT + DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS), width);                g.setColor(ROW_DETAILS_FG_COLOR);                g.setFont(fontBold);                secondRow = y + (this.getFont()).getHeight();                g.setColor(ROW_DETAILS_FG_COLOR);                g.drawLine(icon.getWidth() + PADDING, secondRow, Display.getWidth() - 5, secondRow);                g.setFont(fontPlain);                g.drawText(bottom_text[index], icon.getWidth() + PADDING, secondRow, (DrawStyle.LEFT + DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS + DrawStyle.TOP), width);                g.setColor(ROW_HEADER_FG_COLOR);                bottomLine = secondRow + (this.getFont()).getHeight() + 1;                g.drawLine(0, bottomLine, Display.getWidth() - PADDING, bottomLine);
  

  How do you calculate the width parameter in drawText calls?  What is the full width (less fillings and icon) available or only half of it?  This is the only way for drawText to determine whether to use an ellipsis.

  To make sure that your text left and right do not overlap, determine the maximum that you want to give one or the other rectangle and pass the correspondent aX, aY and aWidth settings. This width will be different from what you give to the substantive text, as seems to be there alone.
