How do I list the currently selected items in the {blend}shape editor ? I have tried using the blendShapePanel, blendShapeEditor and shapeEditor querying the following strings (panels, editors, or windows):
blendShapeEditorTreeViewSelection
shapePanel1
shapePanel1Window
but in vain.
Note: I have obtained the above names using the lsUI command
You can use the MEL proc getShapeEditorTreeviewSelection. To get the currently selected blend shapes:
getShapeEditorTreeviewSelection(1);
// Result: blendShape1 //
Then to get the currently selected targets:
getShapeEditorTreeviewSelection(4);
// Result: blendShape1.0 blendShape1.1 //
This gives you back the blend shape and the index of each selected target. To convert the index, we can do:
string $selectedTargetL[] = getShapeEditorTreeviewSelection(4);
string $convertedTargetL[] = {};
for($target in $selectedTargetL)
{
string $subStrings[] = stringToStringArray($target, ".");
$convertedTargetL[size($convertedTargetL)] = eval("aliasAttr -q " + $subStrings[0] + ".w[" + $subStrings[1] + "]");
}
print $convertedTargetL;
pSphere1
pSphere4
And that will get you everything that was selected. If you need more information about the command, Autodesk has a lot of documentation for that proc in the file listed with the MEL whatIs getShapeEditorTreeviewSelection. I'm not sure I can post it here though.
I found that command by making blend shapes with the Shape Editor and searching <maya install directory>/scripts for the procs echoed in the Script Editor, then searching through similar commands.
Hope this helps!
I am new to Oracle Apex 5.1, and I have been asked to implement a button that when clicked, the user gets (downloads) a .doc file of an Interactive report.
I have noticed that the Interactive Report gives you the option to download it as .pdf, .xls, and so, but I need it to be a Word (.doc) file.
In addition, the file must be in a specific format (with heading, indentation, font, etc.) that I was given (as a template) in a Word file.
Any help would be appreciated.
Additional Information: I was able to open the template (.doc) file in NotePad++ and get the <html> version of it, so I could edit it in both NotePad++ and Word.
One of the best actually to do that is APEX OFFICE PRINT(AOP) but isn't free licence.
otherwise you can check this solution
How do we export a ms-word (or rtf) document (from a web browser) to generated by pl/sql?
I end up finding information in this page: http://davidsgale.com/apex-how-to-download-a-file/ and I wrote this code:
declare
l_clob clob;
begin
l_clob := null;
sys.htp.init;
sys.owa_util.mime_header('application/vnd.ms-word', FALSE,'utf-8');
sys.htp.p('Content-length: ' || sys.dbms_lob.getlength( l_clob ));
sys.htp.p('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="test_file.doc"' );
sys.owa_util.http_header_close;
sys.htp.p(SET_DOC_HEADER);
sys.htp.p(SET_TABLE_HEADER);
sys.htp.p(ADD_TABLE_ENTRY("arguments"));
sys.htp.p(SET_TABLE_FOOTER);
sys.wpg_docload.download_file(l_clob);
apex_application.stop_apex_engine;
exception when others then
--sys.htp.prn('error: '||sqlerrm);
apex_application.stop_apex_engine;
end;
It works, but I had to create functions in the SQL Workshop because writting a table in html is really long.
I'm adding a custom attribute that is an enum list to some of my nodes. I can easily do this with addAttr. But I don't see a way to later add a new enum value or change the enum list. Is that possible?
I have found a way to do this but it seems there should be an easier way. For my workaround, if the attribute exists I grab its value and delete the attribute. Then I add the revised attribute back into the node and set its value to the old value. By changing $enumValues I can edit the list of enums. (Note I only plan to add values not delete values) This script demonstrates my workaround:
string $attrName = "MaterialType";
string $enumValues = "Water:Sky:Terrain:Building:Road:";
string $selected[] = `ls -sl`;
if(`size $selected` == 1)
{
string $attrFullName = $selected[0]+"."+$attrName;
$existingValue = 0;
if(attributeExists($attrName, $selected[0]))
{
$existingValue = `getAttr $attrFullName`;
deleteAttr $attrFullName;
}
addAttr -ln $attrName -at "enum" -en $enumValues $selected;
setAttr $attrFullName $existingValue;
}
else
{
print "You must have 1 object and only 1 object selected\n";
};
Worth mentioning, if I run this script it does change the enum's values but these changes don't show up in Maya's interface until I close the file and reopen the file.
Any suggestions on how to do this more gracefully would be appreciated.
I might be a bit late, but you can use the "-edit" flag in addAttr.
addAttr -edit -enumNames "A:B:C" "node.enumAttrName"
However, you still need to refresh manually or with refreshEditorTemplates
Edit:
You might also want to consider optionMenuGrp. You can add menuItems via the -parent flag. You can remove a specific child with the deleteUI command or remove all children with the -deleteAllItems flag in edit mode on the optionsMenuGrp.
What you're doing - deleting the attribute and re-adding -- is unfortunately the only way to do this. Maya enums are pretty lame.
The attribute should be working correctly after the script is done - you may need to deselect and reselect it to properly refresh the attribute editor. You can check it with an listAttr -ud on your object after the script runs - you should see your attribute name in the results, even if the UI has not refreshed.
I've done a few searches here, and while some issues are similar, they don't seem to be exactly what I need.
What I'm trying to do is import an Excel file into a SQL table via SSIS, but the problem is that I will never know the exact filename. We get files at no steady interval, and the file usually has a date/month in the name. For instance, our current file is "Census Data - May 2013.xls". We will only ever load ONE file at a time, so I don't need to loop through a directory for multiple Excel files.
My concept is that I can take this file, copy it to a "Loading" directory, and load it from there. At the start of the package, I will first clear out the loading directory, then scan the original directory for an Excel file, copy it to the loading directory and then load it into SQL. I suppose I may have to store the file names somewhere so I don't copy the same file into the loading directory in subsequent months, but I'm not really sure of the best way to handle that.
I've pretty much got everything down except the part that scans the directory for the Excel file and copies it to the loading directory. I've taken the majority of my info from this page, which (again) is close to what I want to do but not quite exactly the solution I need.
Can anyone get me over the finish line? I can't seem to get the Excel Connection Manager right (this is my first time using variables), and I can't figure out how to get the file into the Loading directory.
Problem statement
How do I dynamically identify a file name?
You will require some mechanism to inspect the contents of a folder and see what exists. Specifically, you are looking for an Excel file in your "Loading" directory. You know the file extension and that is it.
Resolution A
Use a ForEach File Enumerator.
Configure the Enumerator with an Expression on FileSpec of *.xls or *.xlsx depending on which flavor of Excel you're dealing with.
Add another Expression on Directory to be your Loading directory.
I typically create SSIS Variables named FolderInput and FileMask and assign those in the Enumerator.
Now when you run your package, the Enumerator is going to look in Diretory and find all the files that match the FileSpec.
Something needs to be done with what is found. You need to use that file name that the Enumerator returns. That's done through the Variable Mappings tab. I created a third Variable called CurrentFileName and assign it the results of the enumerator.
If you put a Script Task inside the ForEach Enumerator, you should be able to see that the value in the "Locals" window for #[User::CurrentFileName] has updated from the Design time value of whatever to the "real" file name.
Resolution B
Use a Script Task.
You will still need to create a Variable to hold the current file name and it probably won't hurt to also have the FolderInput and FileMask Variables available. Set the former as ReadWrite and the latter as ReadOnly variables.
Chose the .NET language of your choice. I'm using C#. The method System.IO.Directory.EnumerateFiles
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.IO;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace ST_fe2ea536a97842b1a760b271f190721e
{
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.SSISScriptTaskEntryPointAttribute]
public partial class ScriptMain : Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.ScriptTask.VSTARTScriptObjectModelBase
{
public void Main()
{
string folderInput = Dts.Variables["User::FolderInput"].Value.ToString();
string fileMask = Dts.Variables["User::FileMask"].Value.ToString();
try
{
var files = Directory.EnumerateFiles(folderInput, fileMask, SearchOption.AllDirectories);
foreach (string currentFile in files)
{
Dts.Variables["User::CurrentFileName"].Value = currentFile;
break;
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Dts.Events.FireError(0, "Script overkill", e.ToString(), string.Empty, 0);
}
Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success;
}
enum ScriptResults
{
Success = Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult.Success,
Failure = Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DTSExecResult.Failure
};
}
}
Decision tree
Given the two resolutions to the above problem, how do you chose? Normally, people say "It Depends" but there only possible time it would depend is if the process should stop/error out in the case that more than one file did exist in the Loading folder. That's a case that the ForEach enumerator would be more cumbersome than a script task. Otherwise, as I stated in my original response that adds cost to your project for Development, Testing and Maintenance for no appreciable gain.
Bits and bobs
Further addressing nuances in the question: Configuring Excel - you'll need to be more specific in what isn't working. Both Siva's SO answer and the linked blogspot article show how to use the value of the Variable I call CurrentFileName to ensure the Excel File is pointing to the "right" file.
You will need to set the DelayValidation to True for both the Connection Manager and the Data Flow as the design-time value for the Variable will not be valid when the package begins execution. See this answer for a longer explanation but again, Siva called that out in their SO answer.
I'm researching hours and hours, but I could not find any clear, efficient way to make it :/
I have a codeigniter base website in English and I have to add a Polish language now. What is the best way to make my site in 2 language depending visitor selection?
is there any way to create array files for each language and call them in view files depends on Session from lang selection? I don't wanna use database.
Appreciate helps! I'm running out of deadline :/ thanks!!
Have you seen CodeIgniter's Language library?
The Language Class provides functions
to retrieve language files and lines
of text for purposes of internationalization.
In your CodeIgniter system folder you'll
find one called language containing sets
of language files. You can create your
own language files as needed in order
to display error and other messages in
other languages.
Language files are typically stored in
your system/language directory. Alternately
you can create a folder called language
inside your application folder and store
them there. CodeIgniter will look first
in your application/language directory.
If the directory does not exist or the
specified language is not located there
CI will instead look in your global
system/language folder.
In your case...
you need to create a polish_lang.php and english_lang.php inside application/language/polish
then create your keys inside that file (e.g. $lang['hello'] = "Witaj";
then load it in your controller like $this->lang->load('polish_lang', 'polish');
then fetch the line like $this->lang->line('hello'); Just store the return value of this function in a variable so you can use it in your view.
Repeat the steps for the english language and all other languages you need.
Also to add the language to the session, I would define some constants for each language, then make sure you have the session library autoloaded in config/autoload.php, or you load it whenever you need it. Add the users desired language to the session:
$this->session->set_userdata('language', ENGLISH);
Then you can grab it anytime like this:
$language = $this->session->userdata('language');
In the controller add following lines when you make the cunstructor
i.e, after
parent::Controller();
add below lines
$this->load->helper('lang_translate');
$this->lang->load('nl_site', 'nl'); // ('filename', 'directory')
create helper file lang_translate_helper.php with following function and put it in directory system\application\helpers
function label($label, $obj)
{
$return = $obj->lang->line($label);
if($return)
echo $return;
else
echo $label;
}
for each of the language, create a directory with language abbrevation like en, nl, fr, etc., under
system\application\languages
create language file in above (respective) directory which will contain $lang array holding pairs label=>language_value as given below
nl_site_lang.php
$lang['welcome'] = 'Welkom';
$lang['hello word'] = 'worde Witaj';
en_site_lang.php
$lang['welcome'] = 'Welcome';
$lang['hello word'] = 'Hello Word';
you can store multiple files for same language with differently as per the requirement
e.g, if you want separate language file for managing backend (administrator section) you can use it in controller as $this->lang->load('nl_admin', 'nl');
nl_admin_lang.php
$lang['welcome'] = 'Welkom';
$lang['hello word'] = 'worde Witaj';
and finally
to print the label in desired language, access labels as below in view
label('welcome', $this);
OR
label('hello word', $this);
note the space in hello & word you can use it like this way as well :)
whene there is no lable defined in the language file, it will simply print it what you passed to the function label.
I second Randell's answer.
However, one could always integrate a GeoIP such as http://www.maxmind.com/app/php
or http://www.ipinfodb.com/. Then you can save the results with the codeigniter session class.
If you want to use the ipinfodb.com api You can add the ip2locationlite.class.php file to your codeigniter application library folder and then create a model function to do whatever geoip logic you need for your application, such as:
function geolocate()
{
$ipinfodb = new ipinfodb;
$ipinfodb->setKey('API KEY');
//Get errors and locations
$locations = $ipinfodb->getGeoLocation($this->input->ip_address());
$errors = $ipinfodb->getError();
//Set geolocation cookie
if(empty($errors))
{
foreach ($locations as $field => $val):
if($field === 'CountryCode')
{
$place = $val;
}
endforeach;
}
return $place;
}
For easier use CI have updated this so you can just use
$this->load->helper('language');
and to translate text
lang('language line');
and if you want to warp it inside label then use optional parameter
lang('language line', 'element id');
This will output
// becomes <label for="form_item_id">language_key</label>

I've used Wiredesignz's MY_Language class with great success.
I've just published it on github, as I can't seem to find a trace of it anywhere.
https://github.com/meigwilym/CI_Language
My only changes are to rename the class to CI_Lang, in accordance with the new v2 changes.
When managing the actual files, things can get out of sync pretty easily unless you're really vigilant. So we've launched a (beta) free service called String which allows you to keep track of your language files easily, and collaborate with translators.
You can either import existing language files (in PHP array, PHP Define, ini, po or .strings formats) or create your own sections from scratch and add content directly through the system.
String is totally free so please check it out and tell us what you think.
It's actually built on Codeigniter too! Check out the beta at http://mygengo.com/string
Follow this https://github.com/EllisLab/CodeIgniter/wiki/CodeIgniter-2.1-internationalization-i18n
its simple and clear, also check out the document # http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/libraries/language.html
its way simpler than
I am using such code in config.php:
$lang = 'ru'; // this language will be used if there is no any lang information from useragent (for example, from command line, wget, etc...
if (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'])) $lang = substr($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'],0,2);
$tmp_value = $_COOKIE['language'];
if (!empty($tmp_value)) $lang = $tmp_value;
switch ($lang)
{
case 'ru':
$config['language'] = 'russian';
setlocale(LC_ALL,'ru_RU.UTF-8');
break;
case 'uk':
$config['language'] = 'ukrainian';
setlocale(LC_ALL,'uk_UA.UTF-8');
break;
case 'foo':
$config['language'] = 'foo';
setlocale(LC_ALL,'foo_FOO.UTF-8');
break;
default:
$config['language'] = 'english';
setlocale(LC_ALL,'en_US.UTF-8');
break;
}
.... and then i'm using usualy internal mechanizm of CI
o, almost forget! in views i using buttons, which seting cookie 'language' with language, prefered by user.
So, first this code try to detect "preffered language" setted in user`s useragent (browser). Then code try to read cookie 'language'. And finaly - switch sets language for CI-application
you can make a function like this
function translateTo($language, $word) {
define('defaultLang','english');
if (isset($lang[$language][$word]) == FALSE)
return $lang[$language][$word];
else
return $lang[defaultLang][$word];
}
Friend, don't worry, if you have any application installed built in codeigniter and you wanna add some language pack just follow these steps:
1. Add language files in folder application/language/arabic (i add arabic lang in sma2 built in ci)
2. Go to the file named setting.php in application/modules/settings/views/setting.php. Here you find the array
<?php /*
$lang = array (
'english' => 'English',
'arabic' => 'Arabic', // i add this here
'spanish' => 'Español'
Now save and run the application. It's worked fine.
