I'm on IP 4.0.11.
Is it possible to copy all content of a language to another (ie to edit only texts and not style or html)? Is there an option or perhaps in database?
Thanks in advance.
At this time you can only copy pages. In your case I'd do like this:
Create a new language.
Create same menus in new language (same name and alias).
Then go to an original language.
Select page (copying parent copies children, too)
Click "copy" icon.
Go to a new language.
Select required menu.
Click "paste" icon.
Repeat 3-8.
It's a bit of manual work, but it's a fool-proof. It shouldn't take you very long. Changing a database may create many errors.
Thanks for answer, Audrius. This works fine with one caveat: The pages pasted into the new language still gets prepended with the old language's language prefix.
Example: copied english page "home" to Norwegian and set the url to "hjem". The new page now got the url /en/hjem instead of no/hjem as expected.
I'm on 4.0.16. Thankful for any hints.
Update May 21st:
Did some debugging. Apparently there is nothing in the code of Ip\Internal\Pages copySinglePage() that cares about changing the $copy['languageCode'] for the new page to be inserted.
Line 93 and onwards (referring to 4.0.16):
unset($copy['id']);
$copy['parentId'] = $newParentId;
$copy['pageOrder'] = $newIndex;
$copy['urlPath'] = UrlAllocator::allocatePath($copy['languageCode'], $copy['urlPath']);
whereas I'd also expect some logic setting
$copy['languageCode'] = something;
Hope this reaches the developers

I have some cell texts in a BIRT report which do not flow as nicely as I hoped.
For example,
The text is Long value resultwithaverylongname whichcannotbreak and I had hoped that it would be displayed like this:
Long value
resultwithaverylongname
whichcannotbreak
The render options are as follows:
renderOptions.setOutputFormat(IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMAT_PDF);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PAGE_OVERFLOW, IPDFRenderOption.OUTPUT_TO_MULTIPLE_PAGES);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_TEXT_WRAPPING, true);
renderOptions.setOption(IPDFRenderOption.PDF_WORDBREAK, true);
It seems to me that my desired output is physically possible but I don't know why BIRT does not break on a whitespace and breaks in the middle of the word.
I am using BIRT 4.16 (from Sourceforge). The texts contain normal whitespace (no non-breakable spaces) and are displayed via a data object.
3.Sep.21
I now have an example project which I am trying to commit to Github. In the meantime here is a screenshot showing breaks which look good and others which are not...
The git repo is here: https://github.com/pramsden/test.wordbreak
If the text "resultwithaverylongname" physically fits, then you are right:
BIRT should not break it in the middle of the word.
Your renderOptions seem right (depending of what BIRT version you are using).
At first glance this looks like a bug.
But: In German language, we often have quite long words, and I've created a lot of (complex) PDF reports with BIRT, but I never saw this issue.
So I guess it is a tiny silly detail which causes this.
Just to double-check:
Are the spaces between "Long", "value", "result..." normal spaces (0x20)? or non-breaking spaces?
Which BIRT release are you using?
Are you using a data item or a dynamic text item and if so, is it HTML or plain text?
Can you create a reproducible simple test case and post the rptdesign file somewhere?
well i don use BIRT , but try to use (\n),
in my case I use PDFFlow library to generate pdf docs, and to make a line-break i just use \n
this is a simple example code to create a pdf file and use line break
var DocumentBuilder.New()
.AddSection()
.AddParagraphToSection("Hello world! \n go to the next line")
.ToDocument()
.Build("Result.PDF");
try it and tell me if it works
I faced with the problem of writing my vcs current branch name each time I have written 'todo' comment.
Recently I learned about Intellij's 'Live Templates' which is quite comfortable to use. I tried to apply it to my problem but there's no templates to take out a branch name.
So the question is could I actually take out the name of my branch to code comments somehow?
It is possible to use the groovyScript predefined function and a script to extract the branch name. For example create the following live template:
$COMMENT$ todo [$BRANCH$]: $END$
with abbreviation "todo" and description "Inserts todo comment with branch name". Click Edit variables and give the variables the following definitions:
COMMENT:
lineCommentStart()
BRANCH (updated for 2020.2 and newer)
groovyScript("com.intellij.dvcs.repo.VcsRepositoryManager.getInstance(_editor.project).getRepositoryForFileQuick(com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.FileDocumentManager.getInstance().getFile(_editor.document)).getCurrentBranchName()")
Skip if defined checked for both variables. The Groovy script is (unfortunately) all one line. Set applicable contexts to Everywhere.
With this live template it is now possible to type todoTab somewhere in a source file and a line comment with the branch name will be inserted. This will insert the proper line comment depending on the language of the file, or nothing in case of languages without a line comment like HTML. And should extract the branch name no matter the type of version control used (I tested with Git).
For live templates you can use predefined functions. Unfortunately there is no function to detect the current VCS branch.
But you can create a template to make work a little easier:
// TODO [$branch_name$]: $comment$
With this template, you still have to fill branch name, but you should not type symbols like [ and caret will be placed automatically.
You can also create a feature request for a new predefined function.
I have some records in a CMS that include HTML fragments with custom tags for a widget tool. The maker of the CMS has apparently updated their CMS without providing proper data conversion. Their widgets use keys for layout based on screen width such as block_lg, block_md, block_sm. The problem kicks in with the fact they used to have a block_xs and they have now shifted them all -- dropping the block_xs and instead placing a block_xl on the other end.
We don't really use these things, but their widget configurations do. What this means for us is the values for each key are identical. The problem occurs when the updated CMS code is looking for the 'block_xl' in any widget definition tags, it can't find it and errors out.
What I'm thinking then is that the new code will appear to 'ignore' the block_xs due to how it reads the tags. (and similarly, the old code will ignore block_xl) Since the values for each are identical, I need to basically read any widget definition and add a block_xl value to it matching the value of [any one of] the other width parameters.
Since the best place order-wise would be 'before' the block_lg value, it's probably easiest to do it as follows:
Replace any thing matching posix style regex matching /block_lg(="\d+,\d+")/ with: block_xl="$1" block_lg="$1"
Or whatever the equivalent of that would be.
Example of an existing CMS block with multiple widget definitions:
<div>{{widget type="CleverSoft\CleverBlock\Block\Widget"
widget_title="The Album" classes="highlight-bottom modish greenfont font52 fontlight"
enable_fullwidth="0" block_ids="127" lazyload="0"
block_lg="127,12," block_md="127,12," block_sm="127,12," block_xs="127,12,"
template="widget/block.phtml" scroll="0" background_overlay_o="0"}}</div>
<!-- Image Block -->
<div>{{widget type="CleverSoft\CleverBlock\Block\Widget"
widget_title="What’s Your Favorite Cover Style?"
classes="zoo-widget-style2 modish grey font26 fontlight"
enable_fullwidth="0" block_ids="126" lazyload="0"
block_lg="126,12," block_md="126,12," block_sm="126,12," block_xs="126,12,"
template="widget/block.phtml" scroll="0" background_overlay_o="0"}}</div>
What I would prefer to end up with from the above (adding block_xl):
<div>{{widget type="CleverSoft\CleverBlock\Block\Widget"
widget_title="The Album" classes="highlight-bottom modish greenfont font52 fontlight"
enable_fullwidth="0" block_ids="127" lazyload="0"
block_xl="127,12," block_lg="127,12," block_md="127,12," block_sm="127,12," block_xs="127,12,"
template="widget/block.phtml" scroll="0" background_overlay_o="0"}}</div>
<!-- Image Block -->
<div>{{widget type="CleverSoft\CleverBlock\Block\Widget"
widget_title="What’s Your Favorite Cover Style?"
classes="zoo-widget-style2 modish grey font26 fontlight"
enable_fullwidth="0" block_ids="126" lazyload="0"
block_xl="126,12," block_lg="126,12," block_md="126,12," block_sm="126,12," block_xs="126,12,"
template="widget/block.phtml" scroll="0" background_overlay_o="0"}}</div>
I know how to do it in php and if necessary, I will just replace it on my local DB and write an sql script to update the modified records, but the html blocks can be kind of big in some cases. It would be preferable, if it is possible, to make the substitutions right in the SQL but I'm not sure how to do it or if it's even possible to do.
And yes, there can be more than one instance of a widget in any given cms page or block. (i.e. there may be a need for more than one such substitutions with different local 'values' assigned to the block_lg)
If anyone can help me do it in SQL, it would be greatly appreciated.
for reference, the tables effected are called cms_page and cms_block, the name of the row in both cases is content

,
I read lots of answer here and learn something about this topic but I need more help.Some pages in my project are getting the html(page body) from database.For my controls I use resx files and it works great, but now I need save the html values with multi-lang in my database.
I have a admin panel for my project and I edit sometimes the html or text or pictures in my editor and save it back to DB.I cache the html values in my website and get better performance for my project.But the html text parts is yet in my default lang I will create multi-lang.
I thought of a few possible solutions,
First solution was copying all of the same HTML data and create for all lang one by one
First solution problem : But later this doesnt make sense If I copy the values and create for other lang, then I had be repeating unnecessarily in my database the html values.
My second solution was like this :
this I hid it in the normal way in my DB (only a part of html in one column)
<li>Hello World</li>
<li>Hello Me</li>
Solution :
<li>[HelloWorld]</li>
<li>[HelloMe]</li>
string newHtmlValue = oldValue.ReplaceByLang("[HelloWorld]", GetCulture();,"Hallo Welt");
***// GetCulture(); return for this example german !
I create a new table for the replace text like the key is [HelloWorld]
1(ROW)- [HelloWorld] eng Hello World
2(ROW)- [HelloWorld] german Hallo Welt
3(ROW)- [HelloWorld] fr bonjour tout le monde
and in my project I select the right html value by culture lang.
Now my question is have you any better idea ?
I hope I've been clear and not messy, but if you need more informations I'll be glad to tell you more.Sorry for english.
I would prefer to store all your localized string in single repository like - DB or Satellite assembly.
For Example if you choose DB as repository - Define 3 tables (minimal structure)
1.Locale - Define your locale
2.Resourcemaster - Define your source string and reference Key and this key should be unique in you application and define a standard format like Module_Control_Section ..
3.LocalizedResource - Define your localized sting of Resourcemaster with Locale Key. Foreign key with ResourceMaster and Locale
In front End you can resole any string like control , Html string with localized string and Unique reference key.
Also Implement UI Caching / API caching for better performance.

In version 18 of TextControl (http://www.textcontrol.com) there is supposed to be the ability to add background images/watermarks to the document, however I find that the behavior of the various overloads, etc is not working correctly and that the documentation is rather scarce on examples. Does any one have a working example of adding watermarks to a Word document through the ServerTextControl object?
This functionality didn't exist in previous versions, so I recognize it's still rather new, I just find it weird that doing something like
tx.Images.Add(draftImage, pageNumber, location, ImageInsertionMode.BelowTheText);
doesn't actually add the images to the document, but if I use another overload beforehand, it adds both?
I just need a loop along the lines of
foreach (TXTextControl.Page page in pages){
page.Select();
var location = tx.InputPosition.Location;
var pageNumber = page.Number;
tx.Images.Add(draftImage, pageNumber, location, ImageInsertionMode.BelowTheText);
}
where location is supposed to be the beginning of the page.
Any help would be appreciated, this should be simple!
Thank you
Finally got a response to this on their forum, it's not a complete solution, but it works for the most part. Figured I would follow up here, so that anyone who ends up on this page would get the help I wanted.
