User settings

Hello.

What is the best way to go on the record of the user for my application settings? What tools are available for this?

Is there a place by default to save the settings of the user? When I say settings is options which can be displayed/hidden from in my application (things like degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, ON OFF). What controls are good for that?

Thanks in advance.

I still a hash table in the PersistentStore.

It gives me a key/value pairing of things like:

UserID = foobar

option = yes

... etc.

In my humble OPINION, it's the best way to accomplish your task.  You just need to write a little wrapper class that loads the hash table and exposes methods such as getValueAsInt (key), or getValueAsStgring (key), etc.

  • Updaters Mozilla should leave the user settings where they are.

    It is annoying when an update of Firefox or Thunderbird erases the existing settings. We update on the idea of Mozilla is "dedicated to you, your privacy and an open web site" and wants to preserve our security.

    And it's wonderful.

    But pay attention to the settings that we have in place, so we trash not our existing facility every time we update.

  • Firefox 4 deployment with custom user settings?

    Hi people,

    I want to deploy FF 4.0 with custom user settings, but where is the "localized" my prefs.js file folder? In FF 3.6.x we extract the setup.exe file and with sources, we have deployed our customized firefox. In FF 4.0 now, there is some file missing from news sources. Are there any documents that explain the deployment of FF 4.0? Thank you very much

    You can always create a folder/defaults/profile and places the files in this folder to have in a new default profile. Folders that have no content are no longer present in the version of Firefox 4 RC, but some are still read and processed.

  • TestStand fails to use the application with custom user settings

    Hello

    For a project of teststand, I use a .net application that uses a custom settings provider. The problem is that whenever he tries to use one of the teststand user settings, the application returns an exception:

    "Unable to load the provider type.

    I tried to illustrate the small demo project that I have attached.

    The .net application I call of test bench is AppWithUserSetting, and is one of the steps in the q.seq file in sequence to get a value from a user setting. That's where it crashes for me.

    On the other hand, if I instantiate the same objects and read the same setting from another application .net (DoLikeTestStandApp), everything is fine.

    Note that in the AppWithUserSetting settings.designer.cs file, a custom line has been added ([total:ystem.]) Configuration.SettingsProvider (typeof (AppWithUserSettings.UserAppSettingsProvider))]) to force the program to use the custom SettingProvider. And that's where it fails when loading teststand.

    No idea why? Right now, I'd rather not remove the use of this settingProvider custom because it will keep the settings of the user even when the upgrade to a different version of AppWithUserSettings.

    Thank you and best regards,

    Loïc

    PS: I use studio VS 2008 SP1 and Teststand 4.1.1

  • How do I exit Application user settings of cluster event?

    Could someone tell me please how to get the icon to Application Quit event in a cluster? (similar to that of the user in the event Callbacks.vi settings cluster set up in the OI Simple TestStand shown here).

    I'm trying to change the event Callbacks.vi set up.

    I don't need an other Application event to stop smoking, but I want to know how it is there that I know how to add other events.

    I searched high and low and cannot find how do.

    Thank you very much!

    Ronnie

    Ronnie,

    Once, there may be some disconnect here but I tried what you said and it works wonderfully for me. I can certainly add another user event to the cluster of user settings. Now, what can happen is that the cluster of user settings is a control while your "user event on" refnum which is in your screenshot is an indicator. LabVIEW should automatically convert to a control (and actually unplug the wire you see) because in a cluster do not have controls and indicators set.

    Kind regards

    in windows Vista, how to change a user settings an administrator setup for windows vista windows. In the CMD window, I tried running the disturbance of disk of my user ID, he comes back and says it must be run by an administrator. When I log on as an administrator id, it works well.

  • FDMEE - delete the default user settings

    Hi all

    We have some users who have selected the default POV members in FDMEE.  What we discovered is that user settings are priority on the application settings and system and do ensure that the user is always stuck on the POV that they put the first day by default.  They can define a different value by default each month, but I don't see the point if we update the adjustment system each month worldwide for them.  Please correct me if my understanding is not correct.

    I want to be able to clear the default values for the user and I ask not to put more.  Rather than upgrading security and giving all users access to the 'user settings' so that they can remove manually, I wonder if there is a way easier and more automated.  I can see with the following query parameters.  Could erase these files without any harm through SQL, or is there a better way?

    THX,

    Mike

  • VMware view floating / dedicated user settings?

    Hello.

    I'm relatively new to this view of vmware, did some research and currently arose a system in a laboratory on a license eval for tests.

    It's basically for future planning where we want to go with our company, having 15000 employee with very various and other requirements.

    Centralization of our infrastructure COMPUTING for all sites, creating less configurations for most users will be preferable and applications management.

    but here the question arises.

    with a floating pool, you are obviously less force on the hosts and multiple users use the same vm, but I can't find an option of persistent disk.

    that means, user settings will be locked to this machine, which is most likely, will be handed over to another user, the next day, or the next few hours or so.

    then if he have settings in an application they will not be present if he next time connects to another virtual machine.

    Pools dedicated, if we say in this site, I am, have 300 users, we want to give the soltion for via the dedicated mode, they will be able to have a drive and then persistent would circulate in fact of the virtual machine, but they are entitled to this specific machine, which would end up with vm 300 s then? instead of 150 possibly with floating?

    I'm confused about the idea behind the float we can ofc use of roaming profiles in AD or change envoriment variable at home in the car, but always then settings would not follow the user.

    Thank you.

    Everything you said is correct.  The persistent drive option is not available when using the flexible pools and in order to use full them you will need a type of process of redirection of folder/management profile in place.

    The persistent drive options are available on the dedicated pools that would impose the you need a desktop computer for each user who connects to this pool.

  • Find the directory of the user settings

    Hi fellow Scripting Guys,.

    I can easily find the directory of the user settings in FrameScript, through Session.UserSettingsDir, but it doesn't seem to be an equivalent in ExtendScript. I know FrameMaker knows this directory that the application uses all the time, and I see that there is a Constants.UserSettingsDir in the script of FrameMaker Guide, but there is no reference to this constant anywhere else, there is nothing in the documentation of FDK.

    How to read the value of an ExtendScript, at - it someone know?

    Thank you

    Jang

    OK, I found the answer myself.

    The property is available via the app. GetProps (), which is what I was expecting in the first place. But the following code just give an invalid object as a result:

    var MyProps is app. GetProps ();

    var i = GetPropIndex (MyProps, Constants.UserSettingsDir);

    var TheProp = MyProps [i];

    It seems that the value of Constants.UserSettingsDir is undefined in ExtendScript, or is not correctly defined. Him substituting the value 152 (which is listed in the Frame Scripting Guide) me provides access to the property:

    var MyProps is app. GetProps ();

    var i = GetPropIndex (MyProps, 152);

    var TheProp = MyProps [i];

    Adobe, please get your documentation in order. It would also be useful to have a list of values reflecting constants. , so that we can follow at least the numeric value in the browser of a symbolic value data to be used in scripts.

  • Firefox not to honor the "Offline Web content and data user" settings

    Firefox still accept web content offline and the user data, I have never any notification regardless of the 'tell me when a website asks to store data for use in offline mode' parameter (in preferences > advanced > network).

    I also completely erased all: permissions tab regardless of the "all sites > offline storage" storage offline implementation is always allowed.

    Here is one - step by step to reproduce my problem.
    1. make sure all: permissions is clear
    2 make sure that the list to: Preferences > network > "the following Web sites are..." "is that clear
    3. close the preferences window
    4 go to go to http://appcachefacts.info/demo/ ... No notification about the offline cache will appear.
    5. open the preferences, the list of preferences > network > "the following Web sites are..." »
    Will fill up now with http://appcachefacts.info (1.1 MB)

    This article list persists even after closing the browser window and re - open.
    This happens with a total disregard for the settings described in the first paragraph.

    I found a related question, but it's old and archived:
    https://support.Mozilla.org/he/questions/981189

    Firefox will store small amounts (less than 50 MB) of data without asking permission.

    • offline - apps.allow_by_default; true
    • offline - apps.quota.warn; 51200

    You can switch the pref in offline mode - apps.allow_by_default to false to make Firefox ask.

  • KB980408 stalls to update user settings

    KB980408 stalls to update the settings of the user. He's going to sit and do nothing.  I restore the version previous dthe and everything is fine.  All other updates worked perfectly, but whenever I try to load this patch the system just hangs.

    Kind of ironic, but this patch is supposed to increase stability and reliablility. Have you tried to install the patch manually instead of from Windows Update?  Several times, troublesome patches will install that way.  You can download/run the Microsoftpatch.

    It is not a security patch, so you would probably be well just tell Windows Update to hide this update.  I recommend trying to install the hotfix manually if.

    Good luck
