Valentina Reports can produce PDFs of course.
Also PDFs with embedded XML.

I don't know about PDF417. What is this?
You always can add this as feature request.

Reports do not have need to read PDFs AFAIK.

Re: Slideshows in iRev

Would love the code if you make if available another way.

Nice looking pictures by the way.

-=>JB<=-




OK I've been working on this every evening for a few days, tweaking things.

I made a page with all the code.


Thanks for everyone's input, I cobbled it all together.

Updated iRev code is here:

http://www.himalayanacademy.com/runrev/iRev_slideshow.html

One useful bit you will find there is an embed for driving MP3's in 
almost any browser-platform:  I took me hours to find that thing and 
it's been tested on Mac, Windows 7 Vista, EEPC, and HP Notebook running 
Windows. etc.. and so far everyone can hear the music.


No Java Script yet, but I will probably break down sooner or later.

What I love about this: I don't have to touch Flash, SWF template XML 
params, Action Script, there is no back end MySQL Dbase to hold the 
configurations and metadata, captions etc.  (you would be amazed at some 
of the overhead in some slide show frameworks!)


This CMS is the kind I like.

How simple is this and scaleable

1 folder: photos and caption files
1 iRev template file! ( I have three templates now)
1 iFrame (if you want to embed)

It allows for a) scale b) innovation c) content is not "buried" inside a 
 maze so deep that you can never restructure or refactor your 
presentation without huge man hour overhead.


Next "invention" will be adding voice over for each slide, where
photo.jpg # is the image
photo.txt # is the caption
photo.mp3 # is the voice over.

Caveats:

1) I never liked having captions "popup" over photos (the Flash-DHTML 
way)  on the other hand I'm not sure I like scrolling divs (overflow 
css) with such a fat scroller on an HTML page, but it works.


2) without Javascript there are no transitions. But I'm working on the 
principle that "it's not the bells and whistles... its the content! If 
you have high quality [images, sound, video, music] then your viewers 
really don't care about the wrapper too much.


3) I'm still fishing for the "right rect"  and worry that I may be 
making things a bit too big for the steadily growing world of small 
devices/screens.

Jim,

Each row in a Data Grid form/table and each column in a Data Grid
table have custom properties that help you determine this information.
Note that you use names to reference columns rather than numbers
however. These properties include the dgLine or dgIndex and the
dgColumn.

I just updated the "How Do I Get Data Associated With a Row or
Column?" lesson in the manual to provide some more useful examples.

How Do I Get Data Associated With a Row or Column?: 

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[Jim Ault]

My rule about paths on any system...
 -1- avoid spaces in path names
 -2- avoid dates in file and folder names, such as "hearth jpgs  
12/25/09"
An operating system can allow characters because it knows the  
difference between literal name characters and the control characters.


 -3- When accessing files and folders, do a test before using data to  
be sure the path exists, has correct permissions, etc.


such as

  if there is a folder "holidayFunPictures/"
  if there is a file "holidayFunShots/kids/snowFight.jpg"

Also
put binfile:a.png" into tempVariable
if tempVariable is not empty then
   --we have data

If your solution ever gets to the point of including shell commands,  
this adds another level testing to be sure of valid data processing. A  
standalone should always assume the users computer could have changes  
that prohibit access, such as user account changes and authorizations,  
operating system reinstalls, etc.


Hope this helps

Re: Help with audio

[Emmett Gray]

Opie here. I wrote:


file ... sounds fine in Rev if I access it instead of the imported one.


I.e., playing the file in Rev by filepath results in the correct 
sound. So what's going on? Is QT actually doing the playing of 
external audio even though I'm not calling up the player, or is it 
the OS's native audio management? BTW the sound is not compressed, 
it's a standard mono WAV file, a sculptured click sampled from a 
CueLine ProCue 1M1.


I converted it to 16 bit and reimported into the stack and it's OK 
now. Just to be sure, I reimported the 24-bit version and got the 
same original result. So it seems Rev chokes on 24bit audio.



Try using the player and quicktime and the file as an external source (set
the filename of player 1 to ) as opposed to being imbedded. Quicktime
should properly handle 24 bit audio, but not sure about the native play
component.

If you need to imbed the sounds, then convert and dither the 24 bit files
down to 16 bits with the same sample rate.   Peak, Sound Studio, Audacity,
quicktime should do this. Monkey Tools can do this in batches.

If indeed the internal play command is 16 bit only we should know that.
Thanks for reporting this.

Leaving out the binfile: prefix on Mac might be a forgivable offense that is

One other lesson you might want to look at discusses how to define

the Data Grid is allowed to process the mouseDown message before your  
code does.

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[Michael Kann]

I think I've found the problem

put

C:\Documents and Settings\zhangt\Desktop\imgFolder\a.png

into line 1 of fld "snapshots"

Note in the script below you need a "binfile:" tacked on in front of the path.

on mouseUp
   put line 1 of field "snapshots" into k
   put "binfile:" before k
   set the imageSource of char 1 of last line of field "resultsG" to k
end mouseUp


Maybe you can include all those spaces and exotic characters in your path after 
all.

Re: What cell in the data grid was clicked?

Jim,

Each row in a Data Grid form/table and each column in a Data Grid  
table have custom properties that help you determine this information.  
Note that you use names to reference columns rather than numbers  
however. These properties include the dgLine or dgIndex and the  
dgColumn.


I just updated the "How Do I Get Data Associated With a Row or  
Column?" lesson in the manual to provide some more useful examples.


How Do I Get Data Associated With a Row or Column?: 



And the text of the cell?


The lesson also shows how to get the value associated with a cell  
using GetDataOfIndex. Look at the very last step in the lesson.

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[Michael Kann]

The following script works in a standalone created on Windows XP and running on 
Windows XP. 

on mouseUp
   put "~" after fld "aFld"
   put "C:\Documents and Settings\zhangt\Desktop\imgFolder" into k
   set the defaultFolder to k
   set the imageSource of last char of fld "aFld" to "binfile:a.png"
end mouseUp

Perhaps something gets undone when the script travels through the wormhole from 
the Mac universe to the Windows universe. Does Dr. Who frequent this forum?

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[Michael Kann]

The following script works for me on Windows XP Pro in a stack. I'll build a 
standalone and see what happens.

on mouseUp
   put "~" after fld "aFld"
   put "C:\Documents and Settings\zhangt\Desktop\imgFolder" into k
   set the defaultFolder to k
   set the imageSource of last char of fld "aFld" to "binfile:a.png"
end mouseUp

The image is only the height of the char it replaces. 

Can I assume that your first concern is to get something working rather than 
figuring out what might be wrong?

E-mail off-list any time. I'm trying to learn RunRev and it's fun to learn 
together.

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[Michael Kann]

David, I'm on XP Pro so I can check it out for you.

Is it working in the stack on Windows before you made the standalone. Or did 
you create the standalone from a stack on the Mac? 

In other words, is the fact that it is a standalone important?

First, you might be tempting fate to use anything but vanilla flavored 
characters in a path name. 

Instead of 

C:/Users/DavidG/Documents/This_Much!/Anon 12 28 08 [11-36
AM]/graphics/image1.png

I'd try 

C:/Users/DavidG/Documents/good/wonderful/graphics/image1.png

Another thing to consider is the defaultFolder.

You might try placing the images in the same folder as the standalone.

Hello,

I'm not sure it can help, but did you try to use an other char than a tilde?

Best,

Re: Imagesource of char not working as expected in Windows

[David Glasgow]

I didn't get any on-list responses to this, but got  a good steer from Richmond 
Mathewson (thanks!) off-list.

In brief, my standalone (RR 4.0) takes screenshots and saves them to disk.  
They are also displayed in a field by appending a tilde to the field each time 
a snapshot is taken, and then setting the imagesource of the character to the 
url to which the image was saved.

This works under OS X, but not Windows.  I have wrestled with this and found 
out a little more, but still can't get the darned thing to work.  I moved the 
save location to docs, just in case there was something weird about the 
temporary items location.  I have tested on Vista and Win 7 with the same 
result.

The snapshots are saved to a location such as

C:/Users/DavidG/Documents/This_Much!/Anon 12 28 08 [11-36 
AM]/graphics/image1.png
C:/Users/DavidG/Documents/This_Much!/Anon 12 28 08 [11-39 
AM]/graphics/image2.png

A field called "snapshots" holds the list of URLs and is used like this:

set the imageSource of char 1 of last line of field "resultsG" to line 1 of 
field "snapshots"

In each case this script runs, the tilde disappears but is not replaced by 
anything.  The imagesource of each tilde is correctly reported if requested.  
The fixed line height of the results field is set to false, and it has 
scrollbars.  However many URLs are referenced, but do not appear, the scrollbar 
never becomes active, so it seems that no 'blank' image is being displayed.  
Setting the imagesource of any tilde to empty causes it to reappear, so 
something is happening to hide/show the character.

I also use the URLs stored in field "snapshots" to print the graphics using 
this script to populate a printer stack with the images:


 put 1 into k
   repeat for each line j in field "snapshots"
  set the filename of image "pikcha" of card k of stack "grcprinter" to j
  put k+1 into k
   end repeat

This works fine, so unless there is some Windows Ju-Ju I don't know about 
(entirely possible) it really does look as though something is broken in 
imagesource under Windows.  

Can anyone:

1/  Suggest where I am going wrong (if I am)
2/  Confirm that they do or do not have imagesource working under Windows
3/  Suggest a workaround

This is a critical feature in an almost finished project , so I would really 
appreciate some help
