Experience in the creation of UIs compositable configuration dialog boxes

• A more successful experience in the creation of UIs compositable configuration dialog boxes

  A few weeks I posted an experience in creating user interfaces using sub-panels transparent compositable. The approach can be described as, "It was less remarkable for being novel."

  Today, I write another attempt, this one along more traditional lines, and a lot more successful. Notable: this can be any arbitrary composition of this last AND it solved the problem of order TAB.

  This solution uses an image control and makes copies N of a control. When the user moves a control or move the mouse over the control, a real control slides in this position to be able to catch the events (updated mouse more attract State, highlight to the keyboard focus, manage typing, etc.). If the value changes, a master data table is updated and the image control is updated.

  It is something that has been tried in various forms in the past, but there are two aspects of this particular implementation that make nice:

  1. its programming interface for specifying the behavior of objects should make it fairly easy for a user of the framework generate dialog boxes programmatically
  
  
  2. It handles the problem of TAB without flickering, something I've not seen in other attempts

  This idea creates conversation about previous experience - thanks to those of you who have posted on various forums, e-mail me, or, in some cases, showed up at my office. That last is not something I am encouraging unless you work at OR... just saying. :-)

  Now, this experiement has already donnГ an interesting conversation. We note that, as long as the controls are instantiated independently of each other - in other words, any property of a control depends on the property of another control - this system of dialogue is progressing well. But in this experiment, I implemented the option button, which interact with each other - when set to True, the other false go. As soon as the controls are starting to interact with others (such as aging a control when a checkbox is disabled, or with expandable sections or really complex cases like updating a chart as a change in options, as happens in some config dialogs Express VI) then we leave who need ways to make reference to other controls. That leads us quickly in one of two directions: name the controls or creation of references. The naming approach is certainly my preference because it fits better with the data stream and I can make interesting effects with breaking apart some of the tree. But it quickly starts sounding like "Please implement a XAML parser in LabVIEW." For those of you familiar with XAML, in the world of user interface design, it could very well be the best thing since sliced bread. A XAML string would fit well with the data flow, and we could start that accumulate. I am reluctant to go down this road for two reasons. One, many have noted, it is really not a good library written in LabVIEW that can give me a useful analysis of XML DOM tree. Two, it is a huge project and my gut sense is that you need to fill a pretty big part of it before you would start to see any return on investment. But it is worth thinking to-I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. This code I posted today can at least help you get started on the side of the generation if one of you decides to become laborious.

  I'll have my attention away from this project for the time being, coding in G is a lot of fun, and I wish I could spend several days to do, but this has been a side project and it is time to return to my projects assigned in the programming of text. Building a powerful platform for the automatic generation of user interface in LabVIEW would be really useful - I see a lot of requests for this sort of thing, and other languages are ahead of us in this area.

• question of remote server in the site Configuration dialog box.

  Hello

  I received client ftp information so that I can connect to its server to download files.

  The new CS5 box installation site is a bit different (hard)...

  I set up the folder on my desktop to download and set up the site (directions).

  Problem: under the "Servers" tab, there name address remote connection and tests... mine has two lines of info.

  The top one is my ftp from my personal site.

  Below, it is the only one that I created just to get the download and I gave her a false name.

  I have to remove the top? Because when I go to download it downloads files in my personal site - not customers. Or, should I uncheck "remote" from the top and activate at the bottom.

  I don't want to affect my site at all. Please explain how this new method works... How can I control + choose what server I want content to download from.

  I mean, if I had to remove this dialog box mine, then switch back to the my site dialog box, my connection to the remote server are deleted as well?

  Thank you!

  Too bad. I have it.

  I hesitated to experiment, but it seems that you can select a "remote" at the same time, so all I had to do was click on the customer.

• Article not saved when the item is in a modal dialog box of jquery

  Hi all
  
  
  I followed the instructions here:
  http://shijesh.WordPress.com/2010/04/10/jQuery-modal-form-in-Apex-4/
  to create a modal jquery dialog, this is the code that I added in the html header:
  

  <link rel="stylesheet" href = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.2/themes/
  redmond/jquery-ui.css" type="text/css" />
  
  <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.js"> </script>
  <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.7.2/jquery-ui.js"> </script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
  $( function() {
     $('#ModalForm').dialog(
     {
          modal : true ,
          autoOpen : false ,
          width : 425,
          closeText : 'Close',
          stack : false,
          resizable : false,
          buttons  : {
              Cancel : function() {
                       closeForm();
                  } ,
              Save : function() {
                  updateMEMOVELD();
              }
                     }
     });
  });
  
  function openForm()
  {
      $('#ModalForm').dialog('open');
  }
  
  function closeForm()
  {
      //$('#ModalForm input[type="textarea"]').val('');
      $('#ModalForm').dialog('close');
  }
  
  function updateMEMOVELD () 
  {
     var get = new htmldb_Get(null, &APP_ID.,    
                      'APPLICATION_PROCESS=f_memo', 0);
     get.add('P9_MEMOVELD',$v('P9_MEMOVELD'));
     var gReturn= get.get();
     //alert(gReturn);
     //alert($v('P9_DATUM'));
    $s('P9_MEMOVELD',gReturn);
    alert($v('P9_MEMOVELD'));
    $s('P9_MEMOVELD_COPY',$v('P9_MEMOVELD'));  
    $('#ModalForm').dialog('close');
  }
  </script>

  my situation is a little different, my modal doesn't have to perform a sql update, just to change a field
  the user will then record in the main form
  for some reason any field never gets updated in the db
  I even created an application on the application called f_memo process:

  BEGIN
    APEX_UTIL.SET_SESSION_STATE('P9_MEMOVELD',:P9_MEMOVELD);
    htp.p(:P9_MEMOVELD);
  END;

  Why my domain is not send to the db?
  It works when I remove this from the header of the region:

  < d i v id="ModalForm" title="Add Person" style=" d isplay:n one  "   >

  but then of course I have more a modal dialog box
  
  
  
  What's wrong?
  
  
  I put the code online at apex.oracle.com

  workspace XONIXRS
  login/password demo/demo

  Run the application
  Click lijst (invoices) without (in the region of the right sidebar)
  Then click on the button Search (search)
  a report is displayed, click on edit on the first line (200900017)
  now, a form appears, click the memo of pure and simple button
  now the modal shows upward, change the field and click Save
  Click ok (for warning) and then click on save the invoice
  you stay on the same page
  Now click on town
  and then click on edit on the first line (200900017) new
  then click on note even once, you will see that the memo has not been changed
  
  How comes?

  The problem is that the creation of a region of a modal rise this area of the html code. Take a look at the DOM when you run your page and not the html source code, because that does not reflect the changes to the DOM is the loading of the page. This means that your memo field is far from the FORM tags and actually only submit to the session state. The issue is not addressed when you send page! You can follow through your debugging page. Memo is not saved and untreated.
  Try saving the value of session state is not enough, it does not really matter in this case. The time that you submit the page, session state is crushed by the submitted values of the elements.
  So what I did:
  

  
  
  • Move P9_MEMOVELD to the FACTUUR region, as well as all other db fields
  
  
  • change the type of hidden
  
  
  • the protected value not
  
  
  • in modal region to create a new page P9_MEMOVELD_POP, type textfield element
  
  
  • Set the source to always use a page element as a source, with the source P9_MEMOVELD
  
  
  • change of function updatememoveld:

    function updateMEMOVELD ()
    {
       /*
       var get = new htmldb_Get(null, &APP_ID.,
                        'APPLICATION_PROCESS=f_memo', 0);
       get.add('P9_MEMOVELD',$v('P9_MEMOVELD'));
       var gReturn= get.get();
       //alert(gReturn);
       //alert($v('P9_DATUM'));
      $s('P9_MEMOVELD',gReturn);
      alert($v('P9_MEMOVELD'));
      $s('P9_MEMOVELD_COPY',$v('P9_MEMOVELD'));
      */
      $s('P9_MEMOVELD',$v('P9_MEMOVELD_POP'));
      $('#ModalForm').dialog('close');
    }
    

    If you want or need the session state as a whole belongs to you, it depends on if you are using this also dynamically on the page and therefore to influence results, but I don't think it will be (it's a Memo field...)

  
  
  
  Additional notes:
  
  
  
  • Be careful with the jquery libraries! The standard libraries are included, but you add previous versions too! 1.4.2 this could cause problems of...
  
  
  • Use your models better. Why did you would wrap a region in the div tags? Change or add a model of region to be DIV tags You can then easily assign a static id in this region and target. This will save you from enveloping the wrappers wrapped (cause it is what looks like the code that is generated in the end).
  
  

• Print the brochure-page editing and print dialog box questions

  Hi people,

  I have a small organic seed in Southern California company and I am looking to do our first seed catalog using what I would describe as a "zine" format: a letter-sized document that is folded, resulting in a booklet composed of half pages (I don't know if there is a more technical term to do this (, please correct me). I use InDesign 5 and Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

  
  

  When I started doing the document, it seemed logical to start with my page as a 'half letter' size, because I had read about the "Print booklet" feature of Adobe that would automatically print the pages in the order appropriate for folding. After doing a few pages of my catalog, I decided to do a test run this function, as I suspected things may be more difficult that it seemed. I ran against two problems while doing so, and I hope someone here can help give me an idea.

  
  

  The first problem is that I can't get the pages to impose properly by adopting a system of alternative numbering on the pages themselves. To explain: I chose '2-top stitching horse' in the settings of the printed booklet. I have a paper of 10 pages of 5 blocks spread. In the menu document, I put my layout to start on page 2 so that gaps appear side by side in the pages. However, I also want page numbers on my zine so I started a new section number (which I gave an A prefix) on what is ultimately the fourth page of the layout. This numbering comes as '1' on the fourth page and produced consecutively from here (pages 4-10, on the spread in the page layout area are labeled 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 on the pages themselves). It seems that booklet printing think my second section (A) on page 1 is where it should start stitching horse formatting. The help section on booklet written print Adobe, 'If you have split the document into sections of page numbers, you should enter section page numbers (for example, Sec2:11) "in the range field.". However, they recommend only do that if you want specific pages to the format ranges, while I would like to format the entire document. However, I tried to do that, suspicious that the first three pages were not formatted properly. However, I could not yet find a way to clarify my section A in the range box. I typed in things like "SecA:1" but I get a message that says: "one or more of the specified pages aren't valid page names." I note when I stripped the formatting of the document the print booklet feature requires the pages in the correct order. Thus, this problem is not the end of the world. However, what I lost is the ability to have numbers of pages printed on my document, unless I want to manually add to each page (and then having to deal with reformatting if I ever add or remove pages of the document in the future).

  
  

  The second and more important problem that I have is to get the pages to print even close correct. I have a printer Brother HL - 5340 D laser has a two-sided feature, and I thought there would be a way to print just two pages of my catalog (half-letter pages) on a letter page size, side by side, double faces and in the right order for folding. After trying a number of different options (by changing the page size and the page orientation in the print area), I was not able to get the printer to print these pages, with success, or even in the right size and orientation - or even on the set of law, indeed. Once I played around with all the settings I managed to pull of "Tray1" (and created a preset in the OS X print settings), but I can't understand how I got this opportunity to stick. Of course, Adobe recommends using their own printer on the Brother driver dialog box, but duplex, for example, is impossible without ebb in the print based on the OS setting. I turned, something that has worked well with other InDesign documents I created. In this case, however, I have not been able for duplex printing to work.

  
  

  I wonder if there are conflicts being created between two printer settings, or maybe I just made a mistake starting my catalog with a letter paper size "half" and now try to print two of my pages letter half on a sheet of letter-sized (and double-sided, at that). As a neophyte InDesign (six months experience) I still wonder if there is something really obvious that I'm missing.

  
  

  Does anyone have a picture of my situation?

  Waiting patiently. Thanks people...

  Peter,

  See the screenshot above (two positions to the top) where I show the "spreads" I made in the document. I have 56 pages in 29 spreads

  The number of "spreads" appearing in the pages Panel is misleading since several ov them don't have only one page. I do not see the whole Board, of course, but my guess is that all the "spreads" we do not have two pages. Normall is the first and the last spread that are singles, but you have done strange things with the numbering.

  In any case, is printing print booklet 28 pages. The only way that can happen if additional blank pages are added is if you did not include the original White you have created. You have to go into setup to display the print dialog box and select include blank pages there.

• Relationship between the build version in an About dialog box

  I have a request that I use the build version number auto increment feature.  And it's cool, it does ensure that I keep my build changing every time numbers!

  But I also have an about page of the dialog box where I also version number, so the customer doesn't have to go to exe, make a right click, version, etc..

  Currently, before any construction, I'll update a text box with the version number for the next generation... but this is a real pain and sometimes I forget (fortunately sound always something I check before release however).

  Is there anyway I can bind textbox value to the number of version automatically, so that I don't have to do anything manually?

  Hello

  By consulting the user guide once more tried to locate all the other parameters that may apply, I could personally find not 1 but of course there might be there... as any router have different options and many...

  Have you checked with your ISP that you have the latest firmware for your router? any update of the firmware can help a lot with this kind of questions.

  It is the only router, right? It has no additional effect as a range extender. etc?

  You get power from the strong wifi signal for your printer and computer?

  Please let me know the results with the USB for the moment, the software is there as we have strengthened it even installed earlier...

  Please keep me with any change, I'll try to think of other measures to try while waiting...

  See you soon,.

• I use an iMac with El Capitan and Photoshop CS6. I'm trying to add a shadow to a text on a picture. I followed the instructions to double the text layer but not dropshadow dialog box appears and I can't. Where would it be?

  Double click on the text on the right side of the display panel does not cause a dialog box open. I just need to know where the dialog box is so I can add the drop shadow

  Please make sure that you double-click on the text layer in the layer panel not the name of the layer. With the text, it can be difficult if the name is too long. You can also right-click on the text layer in the Panel and bring up the contextual menu and select 'blending Options '.

  

• Message box in function that returns a list deletes the created list... (Dialog box)

  Hello

  I work with a complex dialogue, its purpose is to manage a section in the PDF file.

  I use a "mclv" object in the dialog box to represent data entries in the PDF file in order to manage the result in another section.

  I created a function that creates the list based on a previous section in the PDF object, the function works perfectly well.

  But I have a small question, the function used to create the list of the dialog box object performs a check with the former front list created, as appropriate,

  and if in any case it is different from the old list, I need to warn the user that the list has changed and if there were any changes applied to the result it will be returned to zero and must be recreated.

  But when the poping that message box, all lists are deleted and nothing is displayed in the objects 'mclv.

  If I remove the message box, the lists are all very well...

  Is there anyone who have come across something like this before? If so, any solution to this problem?

  I asked my question a bit too quickly, I already found a work around

  But I still don't understand why he behaves like that tho...

  I just thought how to work around this problem.

  If anyone has encountered this problem can use this solution:

  Instead of having the message inside the function to return box, I declared a global Boolean variable to the Script object

  If the message box must be displayed, the Boolean value is set to True

  Once in the initialize event of the dialog box, if the value Boolean true I call the message box and reset the value Boolean false
