Possible to Insert Shapes' don't those in the cells of a table?

the use of Pages 5.6.1 on Mac OS 10.11.3 (El Capitan).

I made a table and can not find a way to put something other than the text in a table cell. so not shapes, text boxes, etc., of this kind.

is this possible? If so, how?

Thank you.

Triple-click in a table cell and then click in the form, or the image you want to be placed inside it. You can also make a picture fill in a table cell with the cell on the right Panel tab. Text boxes do not obey this encapsulation and go where they want.

    Hello

    Yes, it is possible to insert video target in the viewer that you are trying to do.

    Please ensure that you inserted in the code file name is exactly the same as the file added in the active tab.

    One tip more: If you apply auto-play on the inserted video it starts playback of the moment Page is loaded. Please pass the idea of autoplay in lightbox.

  • Is it possible to insert glyphs colored with InDesign CS5?

    I write on card games and use (multiple) red "heart" and the symbols "diamond". If it is not possible to insert colored glyphs, can anyone suggest a quick way to get around this (other than copy/paste)? Thank you very much, zinoune

    This isn't really a problem. Fonts to store the glyph shape, not color.

    If you want your glyphs set color, create a character with the desired color (e.g. red) style and assign keyboard shortcuts

    Insert your glyph and use the keyboard shortcut to assign the character style.

  • Is is possible to insert more time for a publication at the beginning?

    Of course, I know how to add time to the computer then move at all during this time. It's logical. But I was wondering if it is possible to insert a said amount of time on the first image, pushing the existing images at the end of the inserted. Could be a time saver for me.

    Simply set the time of the model, then use scripts as rd Shifter to compensate for all your layers of a given amount. I don't know if we looked through AEnhancers.com and sites related to could also find a smartified version that combines the steps al lthe.

  • Is it possible to insert a table using Windows7 and WordPad?

    Original title: Microsoft WordPad

    Is it possible to insert a table using Windows7 and WordPad?

    Very unfortunately, you can not insert a table in WordPad, if you do not have a spreadsheet such as Microsoft Excel or LibreOffice program. If you have one of them installed, click Insert an object into WordPad, and then select Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet or LibreOffice Calc spreadsheet.

    But when you send the document to someone, it will also take the spreadsheet where you inserted the object.

    Sorry, but WordPad is quite limited and only for basic word processing.

  • Possible to insert more than once in the same table using multi table insert?

    I used multi-table insert before insert a source separate from the tables without problem.

    However, when I want to insert into the same table two or more distinct lines, I encountered a problem because when I call nextval on the sequence since this is the same sequence # will try to use the same number for two inserts, which will raise a violation of PK constraint on the 2nd insert.

    A way around this problem?

    Another option is to create the sequence with increases of 2 or however many tables, you are targeting.
    When you then specify the. NEXTVAL, you must subtract the relative number of it, apart from the first table that you insert in to.

    Something like that;

    drop table t1;
    
    create table t1 (a number, b number);
    
    drop table t2;
    
    create table t2 (a number, b number);
    
    drop sequence test_seq
    /
    
    create sequence test_seq increment by 2 minvalue 0
    /
    
    insert all
    when 1 = 1 then
      into t1 (a, b) values (test_seq.nextval, 1)
    when 1 = 1 then
      into t2 (a, b) values (test_seq.nextval  - 1, 1)
    select 1, 1 from dual
    /
    
  • Insert / * + append * / into TableName Select / * + parallel (t, 4, 1) * / * from Tabl

    Hello

    I use
    Insert  /*+ append */   into TableNew select  /*+ parallel( t,4,1) */  * from TableOld t
    to load data into a table through TableNew
    another table of the same structure - TableOld

    More than 4-5 hours it takes me to do this for about 1.5 million lines with a column defined as XMLType as well.

    -Are there any rules to determine the degree of parallelism, or is he just hit and a trial?
    - Or set none and let the optimizer?
    -Any other rule, I keep in mind to try to optimize this operation?

    Thank you...

    No explanation for this.

    I don't recommend this way (insert into... Select..) for large tables.
    Because you have no ability to run a commit when inserting (first at the end of the insertion process that you can commit).
    It takes much more space-cancellation (if you run rollback after the insert statement).

    But, principal in blocks or pieces is not a transactional point of view and can cause more problems later if there is an error in one of the blocks of inserts, because you will not be able to easily restore data that has already been posted.
    I highly recommend to use a single INSERT. SELECT... statement in most cases (it's always going to be rare exceptions), simply to maintain transactional integrity.

    A better way is, define a cursor, read for blocked lines (e.g. 1000 lines), after every 1000 lines run a commit.

    That's a great way to a) slow down the process and b) make it difficult to restore it if a problem occurs.
    Whenever you issue a commit, it tells Oracle to write the data in the data files. Which is performed by the writer processes. By default, the database starts with N number of processes of writer ("N" depends on the configuration of database, so let's assume 4 processes of writer for example). Whenever a commit is issued, a writer process gets allocated to the task of writing the data to the data files as defined. The workload is shared between these processes, so if a further validation is issued and a single process for writer is already busy, then another process will consider this request. If the database starts to do a lot of approvals issued, and concludes that all the existing processes of the writer are busy, it will generate new writer processes to process new requests, taking up more resources (memory, files, and processes handles etc.) server and the writer process more, there is more chance they have of creating States of waiting between them as they all try and write to the data files (same) especially if the data is committed are closely for example same table and associated tablespace etc.). These resources are not released again when the tasks are complete, until the server is restarted or the stop of the Oracle, Oracle keeps them there in waiting, it will get the same kind of workload once again. Oracle is perfectly capable of treating millions of lines, suggesting that it is 'better' to insert into pieces of 1,000 records at a time, having committed after each, not only slows down the process of pl/sql code perspective, but also slows down things from a server resources point of view, as well as causing potential claim to IO file issues... including the possibility of having some i/o contention problems with disks. It is certainly NOT "a better way".

    These suggestions are usually given by people who do not understand the underlying architecture of databases Oracle, something which is taught on the Oracle DBA courses, and it's a course I would recommend that any so-called professional developer attends, even if they did not intend to be a DBA. How works the architecture of a database is probably useful to know how to write good code... not only in the Oracle, but some other RDBMS establishments (when I was a developer of Ingres database, I have followed the courses of Ingres DBA and it was also valuable to understand how to write good code).

  • Is it possible to adjust the height of the cell in a cell style?

    In the attached screenshot, the cell height is set to 0.125 exactly. I put my cursor in the cell, and then open the Panel styles of cell and created a new cell style based on the cell. But when I apply the cell style to other cells, it does not live up to cell. There are no substitutions or other styles are applied to other cells. I also opened the cell style definition in the Panel style of cell but don't see anywhere to set the cell height there either. Is there another way to do this that I'm missing?Screen Shot 2012-08-16 at 5.01.57 PM copy.jpg

    It is possible - and it's pretty simple.

    To set the height of row in the cell style, all you have to do is to use the insert of the cell above and below. As long as you set the style as "At least" then it works perfectly well for having predefined cell styles.

    I used it with success of large financial documents for a while without any hitches. For example, I use it to get the separation between the sections of the tables having a style with extra space above, and similarly for the totals at the bottom of the table lines. It can apply of course also different contour styles at the same time. Having the style defined as 'At least' also allows multiple line entries to still have the correct spacing above and below.

    So if you spend a little time of calculation required heights and to set up your styles, then apply a keyboard shortcut to each style, you can then save a lot of time during the formatting of the document.

    I just finished nearly 400 pages of financial tables using this method on the last two days!

    This solution may be suitable for your situation, but if you have a large number of tables to get through, he happened to be useful to give it a try.

  • Strange - Inserts first slowly, then quickly after the index drop and recreate

    Hello

    I have a chart with lines more 1,250,000,000 on Oracle 11.1.0.7, Linux. He had 4 global index, not partitioned. Insertions in this table have been very slow - lots of db file sequential reads, each taking an average of 0,009 second (from tkprof) - not bad, but the overall performance was wrong - so I fell & re-create the primary key index (3 columns in this index) and permanently other 3 index. As a result, total number of db file sequential reads decreased about 4 times (I was expecting that - now, there is only 1, not 4 index) but not only that - the avarage db file sequential read time fell just 0.0014 second!

    In further investigation, I found in the form of traces, that BEFORE the fall & recreate, each sequential reading of the db file has been reading completely different blocks ("random") and AFTER the fall & recreate, blocks accessed by db file sequential reads are almost successively ordered (which allows to obtain cached storage Bay, and I think it's why I get 0.0014 instead of 0.009)! My question is - HOW it HAPPENED? Why the index rebuild has helped so much? The index is fragmented? And perhaps helped PCTFREE 10%, which I've recreated the index with, and there is no index block is divided now (but will appear in the future)?

    Important notes - the result set that I insert is and has always ordered columns of table KP index. FILESYSTEMIO_OPTIONS parameter is set to SETALL is not OS cache (I presume), which makes my reading faster (because I have Direct IO).

    Here is an excerpt of the trace file (expected a single insert operation):

    Hemant, Jonathan - thanks for the comprehensive replies. To summarize:

    It's the 11.1 (11.1.0.7) database on 64-bit Linux. No compression is used for everything, all the blocks are 16 k tablespaces are SAMS created with attributes EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL AUTOALLOCATE SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO BIGFILE tablespaces (separate for tables and separate for the index tablespace). I do not have to rebuild the indexes of PK, but abandoned all indexes, and then recreated the KP (but it's okay - reconstruction is still that let down & create, isn't it?).

    Traces were made during the pl/sql loop forall was actually insert. Each pl/sql forall loop inserts 100 lines "at once" (we use fetch bulk collect limit 100), but the loading process inserts a few million records (pl/sql forall loop is closed :)). I stuck that part of traces - wait events for 100 (a set of) 'before' 100 'after' inserts and inserts. Wait for events to another inserts look exacly the same - always blocks 'random' in 'before the index recreate' inserts and inserts almost ordained blocks in "after the index recreate." The objects_ids were certainly indexes.

    I think that the explanation of Hemant is correct. The point is, my structure of the index is of (X, Y, DATE), where X and are 99% repeating at each loading data, values and DATE is increased by one for each data load. Because I'm always insert ordered by PK, for loading a new DATE, I visit each index leaf block, in order, as in the analysis of comprehensive index. Because I'm inserted in each block sheet in every load, I have many index block splits. Which caused my pads of sheets to be physically non-contiguous after awhile. Reconstruction has been my healing...

    You got your answer before I had time to finish a model of your data set - but I think you're description is fairly accurate.
    A few thoughts if:

    Unless you missed a bit when your trace file copying, the index with the id of the object 64495 has not subject to drive the way readings which the other clues were. It would be nice to know why. There are two "obvious" possibilities - (a) it has been very well buffered or (b) there is an index where almost all the entries are zero, so it is rarely changed. Because it has the object id lowest of all indexes, it is possible that it is the primary key index (but I don't because I tend to create the primary key of a table before I create any index) and if this is correct your waste of time was not on the primary key index, and perhaps he tends to be very well buffered the nature of popular queries.

    Changes in performance when inserting millions of lines tend to be non-linear as the number of indexes grow.

    As you insert data in the primary key order draw you maximum benefits caching for insertions in the KP index. And since you insert a very large number of lines - the order of 0.5% - 1% of the current lines, in light of your comment 'millions' - you're likely to insert two or three lines in each block of the pharmacokinetics of the index (by the way it must compress on the first two columns)) allowing Oracle to optimize its work in several ways.

    But for the other clues you are probably very randomly jump to insert rows, and this led to two different effects:


      You must keep N times as many blocks in the buffer to get similar read benefits
      each insertion in the index non-PK blocks is likely to be a row insert - which maximise cancel it and redo overhead more undo and redo written
      each insertion in an index block finally requires the block to write on the disc - which means more i/o, which slows down the readings
      as you read blocks (and you have read several of them) you can force the Oracle to write and other index blocks that need to be reviewed to equal.

    It is perfectly possible that almost all of your performance gain comes to drop the three indexes, and only a relatively small fraction come to rebuild the primary key.

    One final thought of block shares. I think that you have found an advantage any readahead (non-Oracle) when the index blocks are classified physically, if you have a trade-off between how many times you rebuild to this advantage and to find a time during which you can afford the resources to rebuild. If you want the best compromise (a) don't forget the compression option - it seems appropriate, (b) consider the benefits of partitioning range date - it seems very appropriate in your case, and (c) by varying the PCTFREE when you rebuild the index you can assign the number of insert cycles before the effects of the splits of block of sheets have a significant impact on the randomness of the IO.

    I have an idea-if I changed the index structure to (DATE, X, Y) then I would always insert in block leaves more right side, I'd have 90-10 splits instead of 50 / 50 splits and leafs would be physically contiguous, so any necessary new buildings - am I right?

    You cannot change the order of index column until you check the use of the index. If the most important and most frequent queries are "select table where colx = X and coly = O and date_col between A and B", you must index this round way. (In fact, you can look at the possibility of using a range partiitoned index organized table for data).
