Setting of annotations / fields customized directly through VM object

Hi all

How can you I set the value of an annotation / customfield directly via the virtual machine object?

$myVM.CustomFields holds all customfields, how to update a value via $myVM.CustomFields?

for example to retrieve a value I can do:

$myValue = $myVM.customfields | where {$_.key - eq "MyField"} | Select value - expandproperty

It is significantly faster than get-annotation.

How to SET the value by the same mechanism?

Hello, marc045-

Once you have the virtual computer object, you should be able to change/update an existing custom value using .net method of the object View, "setCustomValue."  You use this method as such:

$myVM.ExtensionData.setCustomValue("myField", "sweet new value")

The method takes 2 two channels: the key name and the value to set for this key.  You can find this information by browsing QAnywhere vSphere to http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/index.html, or by using the Get-Member cmdlet:

$myVM.ExtensionData | Get-Member setCustomValue

  • Development/unfocus field custom button problem

    Hi all

    I have something weird happens.  I have a custom button field that swaps the images based on a focused state or blur.  I have been using this field custom for awhile now, and I have never had any problems.  Imagine the following provision:

    ______________    ________________________

    | Custom button |    | BasicEditField |

    ------------------------    ------------------------------------------

    When my screen is launched, the focus is on the custom button.  If I move the trackball in a downward movement, the focus is taken the custom button, and its background image changes adequately to what has been defined in the untargeted State.  The BasicEditField then has the focus.  This is the correct behavior.

    If, however, I move the trackball in a movement to the right to the BasicEditField, then the BasicEditField will indeed get the focus, however the custom button field always displays its "highlight" picture  Using print statements, I was able to determine that when I move in a movement to the right with the trackball, the custom field button loses the focus and then gets the focus back to back, that's why it shows the highlighted image.

    Additional info:  This isn't an issue on touch devices, and custom button Manager is a TableLayoutManager.

    Any ideas why this might be happening?  Here's the code to my custom button field:

    public class BitmapButtonField extends Field {
        private String text = "";
        private Bitmap bitmap;
        private Bitmap bitmapHighlight;
        private Bitmap b;
        private boolean highlighted;
    
        public BitmapButtonField(String image, String imageHighlight, long style) {
    
            super(style | Field.FOCUSABLE);
    
            this.bitmap = Bitmap.getBitmapResource(image);
            this.bitmapHighlight = Bitmap.getBitmapResource(imageHighlight);
    
            b = bitmap;
    
        }
    
        public BitmapButtonField(String text, String image, String imageHighlight,
                long style) {
    
            super(style | Field.FOCUSABLE);
    
            this.text = text;
            this.bitmap = Bitmap.getBitmapResource(image);
            this.bitmapHighlight = Bitmap.getBitmapResource(imageHighlight);
    
            b = bitmap;
    
        }
    
        protected void drawFocus(Graphics graphics, boolean on) {
            // Do nothing
        }
    
        public int getPreferredHeight() {
            return bitmap.getHeight();
        }
    
        public int getPreferredWidth() {
            return bitmap.getWidth();
        }
    
        protected void layout(int width, int height) {
            setExtent(getPreferredWidth(), getPreferredHeight());
        }
    
        protected boolean navigationClick(int status, int time) {
            fieldChangeNotify(1);
            return true;
        }
    
        protected void onFocus(int direction) {
            b = bitmapHighlight;
            invalidate();
            System.out.println("FOCUSED");
    
        }
    
        protected void onUnfocus() {
            b = bitmap;
            invalidate();
            System.out.println("UNFOCUSED");
        }
    
        protected void paint(Graphics graphics) {
    
            int topTextPadding = (b.getHeight() - getFont().getHeight()) / 2;
            int sideTextPadding = (b.getWidth() - getFont().getAdvance(text)) / 2;
    
            graphics.drawBitmap(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight(), b, 0, 0);
            graphics.setColor(Color.WHITE);
            if (text.length() > 0) {
                graphics.drawText(text, sideTextPadding, topTextPadding,
                        Graphics.ELLIPSIS, b.getWidth());
            }
        }
    }
    

    Have you looked at navigationMovement in the TableLayoutManager?  I confess that I rewrote it because it handles no left and right as I wanted.  Perhaps, you might be able to do the same thing.

  • How to set all THE fields in Acroform ReadOnly

    Hello, I am looking for a way to set all the fields in a read-only 2 pages acrofrom.  I understand that this is possible through the use of a digital signature, but I rather not go that route for specific reasons. In addition, I understand defining access to individual fields can be achieved as follows:

    var f = this.getField ("FieldName");

    Is there a way to specify an entire page or all pages in a doc? Something like:

    or

    No, the speed of the song has nothing to do with the equalizer. The EQ is on the sound, not the speed. Experiment a bit with the presets and you can understand a little better.

  • Add quot &amp; custom property. data &amp; quot; object

    Hello. I'm trying to figure out how to add a custom property to the data object that does not exist in my event handler code. After the user clicks a button in a DataGrid itemRenderer, I have to add a property to the data object and then read this value in the call to the function ' override public function set data(); If the property doesn't exist, the column has a value set; Otherwise, it will be empty.

    What is the syntax for adding a custom property to the data object? Thank you.

    Thank you. The solution was to use in the button click event handler of the itemRenderer

    myDataGrid.selectedItem.UploadFileName = "someFile.jpg";

    You can then access that service data set overridden inside itemRenderer section, making sure to set the TextInput to void fi data. UploadFileName is undefined or null. This will prevent the recycled itemRenderers to setting other TextInput fields to the same value.

    Furthermore, the reason to use the vs "data" object selectedItem: data object is out of range.

    Your objects punch must be in a large group; It will cut through all that is below.

    Create the shape you want to cut and set it to black Uni. Select your group and your form and (in the transparency palette), click make mask.

  • Missing "Go" field emails sent through Thunderbird 38 email address

    I had problems with emails sent through two addresses using different servers set up on Thunderbird do not arrive with their e-mail address of the sender. This happens only for the update for Thunderbird 38. I reinstalled 37 and hopefully, updated using 'Help' "on Thunderbird" and the problem is recurring. I have not tried to install 38 directly to a download. It doesn't happen when I send using GMail in Thunderbird, GMail systems probably insert the correct information.

    You can file a bug for this in Bugzilla, but try safe mode first. Hold the SHIFT key when you start Thunderbird. Just in case where there is an add-on that does not have the update.

    Yes, the Direct Debit field need to be set on 'Bank card', in order to load the map. The value 'none' recurring order will be created, but the credit card will not be charged!

  • problems to manage certain features of 5.0 language - enums and annotations - a custom doclet

    I am writing a brand new customized by using the JDK 1.7 doclet. These are the problems that I found so far:

    IsEnumConstant(), isAnnotationTypeElement(), isEnum(), and isAnnotationType() methods doc do not work. They always return false.

    PackageDoc enums() method always returns an empty array. Enums are included in the result of the allClasses() and ordinaryClasses() methods.

    ClassDoc enumConstants() method always returns an empty array. The constant enum are included in the result of the fields() method.

    PackageDoc annotationTypes() method always returns an empty array. Annotations are included in the result of the interfaces() method, so I could implement the following workaround solution:

    AnnotationTypeDoc annotationDoc;

    Interfaces [] ClassDoc = packageDoc.interfaces ();

    for (ClassDoc classDoc: interfaces) {}

    If (classDoc instanceof AnnotationTypeDoc) {}

    annotationDoc = classDoc (AnnotationTypeDoc);

    } else {}

    continue;

    }

    Process (annotationDoc);

    }

    Based on something I found in the "what's new in Java . doc 5.0 " page ( http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/javadoc/whatsnew-1.5.0.html) I guess that even if I write it with JDK 1.7, my doclet works in a kind of pre - 5.0 compatibility mode. That's what I found in the "what's new in Javadoc 5.0" page: ".

    Incompatibilities with custom Doclets

    Custom Doclets written prior to 5.0 will have compatibility issues when running on the source files that use the new language features in 5.0. New language features: the Doclet API and standard doclet were revised in order to manage the new features in 5.0 language - generics, enums, varargs and annotations. To manage these features, custom doclets will also need to be revised. The Javadoc tool tries - wherever possible - to present the so-called "legacy" doclets with view on the program 1) continues to work with the source code of pre - 5.0, but 2) corresponds to their expectations for 5.0 source code. Thus, for example, the type arguments and type parameters are stripped of generic constructs, variables of type and generic types are replaced by their scrapings and ClassDoc.fields () returns one of the constants enum.

    Solved! It has been really work in pre - 5.0 compatibility mode. All I had to do to was to add the following method to my custom doclet:

    public static LanguageVersion languageVersion() {}

    Return LanguageVersion.JAVA_1_5;

    }

  • Annotations with custom Backend

    We are building a huge document management web application, and many of these documents are PDF files. PDF files and related information must be stored on our server. We need a PDF Viewer that will allow us to annotate the file and save it on the server (ideally annotations is stored separately). We searched for weeks and came to the conclusion that Adobe Reader would provide the best user experience. Our problem is that the only way we found to activate annotation tools in reader is to open the file in Acrobat Pro, start a shared review, save the file, and then open the file in a browser. Unfortunately the whole review process does not apply to our situation at all. Our customers will just annotate files whenever they feel the need. If we want to activate annotation tools in the drive somehow without a review process and we somehow need to enter these annotations and send them to our server.

    I called him several times to Adobe technical support and have obtained exactly what many of the completely different answers. Here are some of the responses I received Adobe technical support:

    You must use LiveCycle ReaderExtension the reader service extend the file

    OK, I installed the trial version of LiveCylce with JBoss, I logged into localhost/ReaderExtensions, extended to a single PDF file to activate the comments and everything else - the annotation tools are always disabled.

    You must create a shared in Acrobat Pro review.

    Annotations work but we don't want comments and we cannot count on a manual procedure to allow annotations. We have thousands of existing files that need to 'manage' now.

    Just use Acrobat Pro

    We need it in a web browser and Acrobat Pro is a stand-alone application.

    If you install Acrobat Pro your browser plugin will be modernized and annotation tools will be available

    Set to false.

    You need to find or create a third-party plugin for player

    This one I believe but I don't see anything in the SDK on this subject, I do not see these third party solutions and that one person has suggested that this is the solution.

    Someone out there a solid answer to this?

    Thank you

    Joel

    Difficult, as with the depreciation of the browser based on the Acrobat family review (BBR), you can only access the annotation tools in an instance of Acrobat or Adobe Reader browser-box when the PDF file is in a shared review, regardless of how you create the PDF file. Using the CERL wish reader the document does not affect the ability of a user with Adobe Reader running in the desktop mode to access the full range of markup tools and backup copies locally - it does not change when the data of comment are posted or the interface has user in a browser frame.

    It is possible to write a plugin (in C++) which manages the transfer of data from back-office of comments in a PDF document 'classic' (extended but reader does not part of a shared review), and a number of organizations have done this internal to facilitate the same revision of special mass-volume system you're looking for, but the plugins are not available commercially during the that they each are designed to work with specific infrastructure. With such a plugin, that it is currently possible to activate the comment and marking tools in a setting of browser using a special API function, but we cannot guarantee this will remain possible in future versions as it relates to the "collab" API system that operates BBR.

    If you can store your documents and your comments on the outside, Acrobat.com with workspaces is an option (users don't even have Adobe Reader, they can comment directly in the application of the Flash workspace) but there's no Acrobat.com services for self-hosting.

    The depreciation of BBR was decided after a large part of the debate and is due to the complexity of the support of host environment that are beyond the control of Adobe. It was decided that the comments shared or dedicated plugins are the way to go.

  • How to set a form field to accept only integers?

    I use Acrobat X.

    I have a number of fields in a form that are used in a variety of calculations. It is the nature of these fields they should contain whole numbers only, no decimals.

    On the "Format" tab, I set the format of the field 'Number' and the number of decimal places to '0 '.

    On the tab 'Validate', I put 'field value is in Range' ' of 0 "," 999 ".

    It is to ensure that the field can contain a maximum of a three-digit number.

    But this still allows the user to enter decimals. This messes up my calculations, so I want to limit the user input to whole numbers.

    How do I do that?

    Thank you!

    Steve

    It is not on the validation tab, but the Format tab. You must select a Format of the custom type. In fact, you can set the function code and the call to the function in the key code window and it will work for this field. If you can add the function as a JavaScript code at the level of the document, it will be available for use by other similar fields as well.

    I'll try to confirm how to add a function at the level of the document in Acrobat 10...  If anyone knows it, please chime.
