XPS Viewer on Windows 10 - Removed in new OS installs -

[Randy Engle via 4D_Tech]

Hi 4D!

MS Strikes again!

As of 15/Aug/2018 - Windows 10 Build 1803

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/planning/windows-10-1803-removed-features

MS is removing XPS Viewer as a standard installation for new installations of 
Windows 10, starting with release 1803
Upgrade to 1803 apparently will not be affected.

Yes, it can be manually re-installed. 

However many of our customers don’t want to be bothered with this.

Is there anything in the works as a previewer replacement instead of XPS viewer?



Thanks!

Randy Engle

Hi,

Have you tried the OBJECT SET TITLE command?

Hi Tai,

Thanks that works well in v17 (which I will keep around and use) but not in 
v15.2 (that’s the clients current working version).

Miyako’s 4d-widget-calendar Errors: Project method not found

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi All,

I’m sure this is simple! But I am not seeing it.

I am using Miyako’s "4d-widget-calendar-simple-master” component in a v15 
database.

Is anyone else using this component and got it working???

I have tried source and compiled…

So I downloaded and updated the v14 component to 4D v15.2 Mac and copied it to 
the component folder.

I know it’s in the right place since I can see it in the component list and 
because the subform “Calendar” shows up in the Detail Form list in the property 
editor.

I created a a subform and named it similar and set all properties to the 
example parent form used for testing inside the component.

When I try and run it I get the following error:

Error when executing the method “Calendar” at the line number 8.

-10508 Project method not found.

This is the same error for all form events calls to the methods inside the 
component.

Since the form events are private to the component I am to sure why they are 
not bing seen?

Anyone able to help?

Appreciate,
John...

Query By Formula ([Table]) v17 Loss of Functionality

[Alan Tilson via 4D_Tech]

Hello out there,

I just noticed in our v17 system which we upgraded from v13 that the system
(4D) generated query box for Query By Formula is basically the same box
that is for standard queries.

I see no way to simply query for Field1 # Field2. I cannot even manually
type in Field2 (at least in the case of real fields).

I'd love some help getting this to work or confirmation that it is no
longer possible.

Thanks,
Alan

Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi All,

I would like to show a command symbol (and option of shift as well) as part of 
the Title in a button.

For example if I have a button with a Title as “CmdT" I’d like to see the 
“symbolT” instead.

So far copying and pasting the symbol from the Emoji & Symbol Editor does not 
work. I cannot find it in the Keyboard viewer. It converts them into “?”.

Anyone?

Appreciate,
John…

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi Chip,

Thanks.

Seems strange that with all the Unicode characters 4D can handle that a button 
wouldn’t;t be able to show that character.

yes I could create an svg button but seems overkill (at this point anyway).

I’d rather not keeping whacking my brain trying things that won’t work.

Anyway, appreciate,
John…

RE: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[Tai Bui via 4D_Tech]

Hi,

Hmm, not sure if it's just my machines or possibly caused by the emoji & symbol 
editor. But copying and pasting the character as a text character and not as an 
emoji/symbol allows me to paste the command symbol into the properties list 
Title section, the form editor and running the form seem to display the text 
properly.

You can use
SET TEXT TO PASTEBOARD(Char(8984))
which generates the following character when pasting, ⌘

-Tai B.

Ref: Miyako’s 4d-widget-calendar Errors: Project method not found

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi All,

OOPS!

So obvious! Earlier I decided I would create a form in the db and named it 
Calendar. I then copied the one from Miyako's component. I hadn’t realized that 
it copied the method names.

So… when I changed my plan and compiled the component and use it instead these 
non existent "method names” interfered. Deleting the unwanted form and viola it 
worked!

I knew it must be an obvious overlook on my part.

Sorry for the noise.

John...

RE: XPS Viewer on Windows 10 - Removed in new OS installs -

[Randy Engle via 4D_Tech]

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the idea.

Don't think MS Print to PDF will substitute as a seamless "Preview"
But it's certainly an idea worth entertaining.

I've not looked into how much we can configure MS Print/PDF to set the location 
and name of the document.

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[John J Foster via 4D_Tech]

Hi,

Currently on a Mac (Windows later).

I changed the font to "Arial Unicode MS" on the button.

And I have PopChar - which when set to font "Arial Unicode MS“ shows the 
character as “Place of Interest Sign” and #8984(2318). So good.

But I have tried many variations from pasting the character which is changed to 
a “?” to entering "”.

So nothing that sticks with the button title.

Appreciate,
John…

Re: v13+ Components and Host forms

[Jeremy Roussak via 4D_Tech]

I don’t think so, no: the form isn’t visible from the component.

I have worked round this by having a method in the host, callable by the 
component, which opens a specified form (for my purposes, using DIALOG, but I 
can’t see why ADD RECORD shouldn’t be OK as well). It works.

RE: XPS Viewer on Windows 10 - Removed in new OS installs -

[Stephen J. Orth via 4D_Tech]

Randy,

You certain can make this look seamless, and quick frankly this is how many 
newer systems are working.  You switch to that printer, have it produce the 
document silently to a location you manage, open it using a shell command or 
WIN32API.  The user can then close it and you can clean it up later, or move it 
somewhere for the user.

If you use the current version of QuickBooks, that exactly how they work...

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the idea.

Don't think MS Print to PDF will substitute as a seamless "Preview"
But it's certainly an idea worth entertaining.

I've not looked into how much we can configure MS Print/PDF to set the location 
and name of the document.

Maybe not ideal, but there is Microsoft Print to PDF built in to Windows 10.

v13+ Components and Host forms

[Chip Scheide via 4D_Tech]

I have been reading through the docs on components, and I am not clear.

If I have a component, and I want to add a record to a host table, 
using an entry form defined in the host system. Can I do the following 
in the component, and expect it to work?


$Table:=$1   // pointer to table to add a record
$Input_Form:=$2   // entry form to use, text

FORM SET INPUT($Table->;$input_Form)
ADD RECORD($Table->)

Thanks
Chip

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[Chip Scheide via 4D_Tech]

John,
as I recall to do this (command symbol) you need to use the Font 
Chicago, as it was only font that supported it. Chicago is a now 
defunct font.
So... I do not think you can do this with a standard button and text.

You might be able to cobble something together with SVG (I would not 
know), or use a combination of invisible/highlight buttons, text and 
picture library.

My solution (not elegant) was:
Command/Cntrl - S
as button text, where 's' is whatever letter.

Postal Addresses by City

[Walt Nelson via 4D_Tech]

Folks,

This is a rather strange request from a client, but here goes:

Anyone know of a source for physical mailing addresses for a given city? They 
want verified mailing addresses.

Anyone use a mailing list service that they could recommend? Anyone know what 
that might cost per 1,000?

Seems the US Census Bureau has LAT & LONG data available that you can dump & 
there are some online APIs to convert the LAT & LONGs to a physical address, 
but that isn’t foolproof.

Thanks,
Walt Nelson (Seattle)

Re: Postal Addresses by City

[Kirk Brooks via 4D_Tech]

Walt,
Are looking for the actual addresses? There are companies that sell those
sort of lists. I haven't looked in years... This one is top of the list:
https://www.infousa.com/lists/zip-code-mailing-lists/

Or do they have addresses and want to verify them? For that I have been
using Smarty Streets for years. Great folks, good pricing and you get the
geo code and a bunch of other data too, all in JSON. Very competitive if
you have a large list you want to verify.

Re: Command Symbol as part of Title of Button

[Wayne Stewart via 4D_Tech]

John,

What I've done in the past (using Greek characters) was create an xliff
file (which is in UTF-8) with the text in it.  I'm pretty certain that
worked in v13+

Regards,

Wayne

ON AFTER SORT

[stardata.info via 4D_Tech]

Hi All,

I use 4D V16 on windows.

I need to know if one sort in my listbox are used (by click on column).

With event "on after sort" I can trap the click on the column in a 
sortable listbox, but I need even to


know what column is clicked and the sort order of this column.

Someone have done already?


Thanks

Ferdinando
