What are user defined variables (UDV)?

• Extracts & user defined Variables

  After ~ 5 years not working not with any what HAT, I started a new post on 28/03/2016 and put back the trial HR 2015 a spin. I'm very excited by what I see and were able to do so far.

  I have 3 'entities' to write and I created 3 pages, one page per entity.

  Each of these presentation pages, I have this first line:

  |

  This section describes how to enter and manage [entity].

  |

  I set each [entity] as a user-defined variable. Each page with this sentence I hard-coded and added a reference to the user defined Variable and then produced output. Works great.

  Now, I'm going 'down' a level. What I want to know is how to

  |

  "This section describes how enter and manage."

  |

  be a code snippet. I want it to be an excerpt because when I write a sentence better, I don't have to make the same change on each of these presentation pages. Finally, there are 19 pages of presentation.

  
  

  Anyone who structure their content like this?

  
  

  What I want to avoid doing several manual changes. For example, if the following examples have been in a RoboHelp project, on https://support.assessment.pearson.com/x/N4Dy, there is this sentence:

  
  

  This section shows you how to manage user accounts.

  
  

  On this page - support to manage test paper - next to PearsonAccess online User Guide - Pearson Assessment - it is this sentence:

  
  

  This section covers all the unique aspects of the test paper.

  
  

  What I'm trying to do, is to have an extract which is defined as:

  
  

  This section tells you how to

  
  

  and refer to it on both pages.

  On the first page, it looks like

  from <>this section tells you how to< / endSnippet >

  user accounts < beginUserDefinedVariable >< / endUserDefinedVariable >.

  Then on the second page, I would say this:

  extract < code > This section tells you how to < / endSnippet >

  < beginUserDefinedVariable > manage paper test < / endUserDefinedVariable >.

  |

  The reason why I want it as a snippet of code is because I don't want to have to maintain "this section tells you how to" text hardcoded on each of these presentation pages. I would like to take advantage of the functionality of content reuse to avoid a bunch of copy / paste or even find / replace.

  Thanks for any help!

  But what you might want to consider, is another variable to contain the desired text in the code snippet. This could be inserted inline. Then update you only in the variable.

  Just thinking out loud a bit.

• RH6: User Defined Variable: how to change?

  QUESTION
  Is it possible to change the value of a variable that is defined by the user in RoboHelp 6? If so, please describe.
  
  QUESTION
  After you change a RoboHelp project, I want to update the value of a user-defined variable, but I don't see any way to do this.
  
  BACKGROUND
  My PC is under Win XP SP2. I use RoboHelp 6 to create a HTML Manual. I have several subjects; each topic has its own model. A common feature of each model is a version number. I inserted a variable defined by the user to the version number in each model. RoboHelp pushed successfully this version number to all my subjects.

  If you double-click on the user defined Variable in the project manager, you can change the default value here. I think what you want but is a different value for different generations. In the first page of the wizard when you build there is a button of Variables, you can change it there is for this build.

  You can create different configurations for different versions and each will retain its own value. Craig Clarke wrote an article on what will soon be published on the Adobe site. Hope this helps until then as I know that Craig, who has more knowledge of this area, is currently on holiday.

• Addition of registered symbols and TM for user-defined Variables

  Is it possible to add nurses or symbols marks to the value of the User Defined variable? All our help files are single originating in 2 or more brands of products, so I'm excited about this new feature RH7 (I upgraded x 5). But if I can't add these symbols, then this function is also useful for me as the new logo of HR.

  Hi Eilan

  I just tried a unicode character and it seems to work both webhelp and CHMS very well.

  I went to start. Run and enter "charmap". Selected a symbol and it is entered as the value of the variable. In the variable dialog box, it appeared like a square, but HR, it displays correctly in the WYSIWYG editor, preview, webhelp and in a CHM.

  The fact that the symbol is not correctly displayed in the list of variables can be overcome by a skilful titration of the variable.

  And what is the problem with the logo? :-)

• 9144 with FPGA and SGL EtherCAT custom user-defined Variables?

  Hello

  I currently have a small instrument driver (rs485) running on a chassis of 9144. The output values are communicated to the master EtherCAT using FXP numbers. I would like to pass these FXP to SGL, since I've upgraded to SP1 2012 LV with FPGA now supports numbers of SGL.

  Is this possible? I tried several times to create the Variables defined by the user of SGL in the project, but the date type is gray.

  Greetings from Munich,

  Götz

  Unfortunately, SGL is not a data type supported for communication to and from a 9144. The types of data available for the I/O user-defined variables are:

  * Fixed point
  * Signed integers (Int8, Int16, Int32, Int64)
  * Integers (UInt8, UInt16, UInt32, UInt64)
  * 32 bit field
  * Boolean

  More information on I/O user-defined variables can be found at:

• Flash Wrapper and access user-defined variables

  I'm working on creating a Flash AS3 wrapper to combine several files cpativate.  I am able to retrieve system variables, but I'm not able to recover the user-defined variables.  I have a variable that is defined by the user in my Captivate called passedScore, in my Flash script, I have the following...

  var mcLesson1:MovieClip;

  btnHit.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, test);

  var vLoader:Loader = new Loader();

  vLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded);

  vLoader.load (new URLRequest ("untitled1.swf"));

  function swfLoaded(e:Event):void {}

  mcLesson1 = MovieClip (vLoader.contentLoaderInfo.content);

  vLoader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, swfLoaded);

  addChild (mcLesson1);

  }

  function test(event:MouseEvent):void

  {

  feedback1. Text = mcLesson1.cpInfoCourseName;

  feedback2. Text = mcLesson1.m_VarHandle.passedScore;

  }

  retroaction1 correctly displays the name of the course, however, for feedback2 it errors saying a term are indefinite (referring to m_VarHandle)

  try to use mcLesson1.cpEIGetValue ('m_VarHandle.passedScore');

• Red dot on the user-defined variables.

  At the risk of looking like an episode of Seinfeld, there is a red dot on some of my variables defined by the user, does anyone know what this could be?

  

  Thanks for any help,

  Hello

  The red dot means that the variable is set in the defined variable. Without the dot variables are in the variable defined the same as in the definition of the default variable.

• What are users with Cisco 802.11n 802.11ac WLAN APs running on Low Power?

  Experts Sars WLAN,

  I'm new on a big installation WLAN here and noticed that not only the AIR-CAP2702I-E-K9 communicate on the Management Station first central and many changes of low-power 2.4 GHz antenna power level.

  People here tell me that it is not harmful, but I am slightly dubious and would like your opinion here.

  WLAN access points are activated with 2.4 and 5 GHz-antennas and shoot only 15.4 Watt following switch.

  Interface Admin Oper Power (Watts) class of device
  Of the PS to the device
  --------- ------ ---------- ---------- ---------- ------------------- -----

  Ba3/4 auto on 17.3 15.4 4 AIR-CAP2702I-E-K9

  First is revealing:

  "APis running on Low Power." Please disable Radio one and reset the access point to get full power on the other radio. »

  The access point is configured for 802.11n on both bands and 802.11ac on 5 GHz.

  I can also see many Power Level change on the 2.4 Ghz antenna.

  Here people are complaining about downtime on laptops for SAP applications.

  Also a voice over WLAN installation does not work very well.

  But I don't know if this has something to do with low power.

  What are the consequences for WLAN users in this scenario?

  Changes in the level of power can cause interruptions to users of WIFI?

  Is 'Low-Power' - Situation responsible for a large amount of sending changes to feeding on 2.4 GHz?

  Who knows more and has experience with low-power facilities?

  Thank you for any comments on this

  Wini

  Just to add

  What are the consequences for WLAN users in this scenario?

  * Anything, just change really the number of antennas is used

  Changes in the level of power can cause interruptions to users of WIFI?

  * Change in power level, do not make changes to string

  Is 'Low-Power' - Situation responsible for a large amount of sending changes to feeding on 2.4 GHz?

  * No.

  Who knows more and has experience with low-power facilities?

  You should focus on your environment and what you see. With low power due to the PoE does not affect the user experience.  If your access point changes the power too high or too low, you can introduce some poor duplication of coverage or channel.  If you are also in a building/space tenant shared, other installs nearby Wireless will affect your RF and yours will have an impact on their. Nothing we can do.  You must set customer issues before assuming what is wrong, that nothing could be wrong.  The updated client drivers is also a good thing to do to eliminate this problem.

• The color user-defined variables

  Yesterday I started using variables defined by the user in one of my projects, and whenever I inserted a variable, it was green, which was great because I could easily identify them as variables. Today, I opened my project and noticed that the variables are all normal color text. Is it possible to get them to color again?

  ORACLE_SID is the name of the database instance that you are using.

  T2KDEV is set to the type of terminal you are using. If you are using openwindows; Xsun if you use X windows.

  Is defined on the type of terminal you are using. Note: If you are using openwindows, you may need to redefine the variable TERM to the Sun (instead of cmd-Sun) and you must run a shelltool ORACLE.

  TWO_TASK is located where the ORACLE Server can be found, and will normally be the name of the database instance. This variable allows to simplify the command line to start the ORACLE tools.

• What are user sessions?

  What and why are there user Sessions if there is only one user on Microsoft windows?

  What and why are there user Sessions if there is only one user on Microsoft windows?

  In fact, Windows XP is a multi-user system.  The Fast User Switching feature allows simultaneously to several user accounts to log on to the computer.  Although a single user account (the user session) at the same time is able to use the keyboard and display, other user, including open applications sessions, continue to run in the background.

• Could not create the user-defined variables. Help, please.

  Hello. Maybe I will have a PET of brain, but when I click on the double gears (see illustration) to create a new variable, nothing happens. I can create sets of variables, but not UDVs. Anyone know what gives?

  THX.

  -KUrt

  

  My guess is that it's because you have a named Variable set to the specific point. Click on the sample "ke" drop-down and changes to focus the and you should be golden.

• Conditional User Defined Variable in the table of contents to RH10

  Hello

  I have a unique project created with tags of conditional compilation for a product in several countries. The name of the company was the same in all three countries, but now the name of the company in a country is about to change. I created UDVs with conditional compilation of tags to apply the appropriate name when aid is produced (Yay for RoboHelp 10 for allowing this).

  There are 58 topics in the table of contents that include the name of the company in the title of the topic. My problem is, if I include the UDV to the title of a page in the table of contents, conditional text is ignored.

  I guess that's because the table of contents allowing in conditional constructions apply to the page or the book itself and no text in the name of the page or the book.

  Please can someone confirm that this is the case? If so, I'll make a suggestion to Adobe.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I hope that Willam won't mind my expand a little on the issue.

  I note that you already seemed to be aware that the UDVs are possible in the text of the table of contents. And if I understand correctly, your problem here is that you want to condition the UDV in the table of contents, right?

  Certainly a way to do that would be to have two different TOC entries. And apply tags to each, so that one or the other would be excluded. But to be honest, I always avoided tagging the elements of the table of contents that I saw myself mixed results.

  The thought here for me is that I wonder why you feel the need to apply a condition to a variable? Why not use a different version of the variable? Of course, you create variables and insert them, but you can actually create different sets of variables that have different values, then when you create your output you simply choose the Variable you want to use.

• What are user Points? Please explain to me

  Can someone please explain to me the point system and how it works? Thank you

  Hi Devirtaza,

  The points system is used to help determine a reputation for people in the forum. You get points for messages, replies, blog and other. In other words, more we are on the forum the more points than us.

  Copper = entry
  Bronze = 6-249 points
  Money = 250-1499 points
  Gold = 1500-5999 points
  Platinum = 6000-14999 points
  Diamond = 15000-750000 points
