Is there any way we can merge multiple canvases from different workbooks into a single project/workbook?
If we import a .dva file into OAD, it functions as a new separate workbook.
I wanted to use individual canvases.
You can copy and paste canvases from one workbook to another. There is no "merge". Just click on the little arrow left of the canvas name to open the menu, choose "Copy Canvas", then navigate to the new/different workbook and repeat the process, choosing "Paste Canvas" this time.

The top of the form container is "up" under the toolbar. I can't find out how to get it down so that I can move the form to different areas on the screen. Using VB6.
Just remove -or rename- the (.vbw) file, that would reset window size & location.. Good luck :)
Edit:
You can also open the file with any text editor and change the form container position (in case you want to maintain the other settings
Click the form then Alt+- (hyphen) to open the MDI child forms default menu, hit M for the Move item and you can use the arrow keys (or mouse iirc) to move it around.
I have a handfull of images that I want to put into a simple program that shows me what the animation will look like?
I know photoshop could do it, but I am looking for something simple. All I want to do is add images to the program and it just shows me what it looks like in sequence. I had a look at some tools, but they all seem soo complicated. Has anyone got any programs they can recommend?
Thanks
Cool Simplest Solution! which i have used many times
PowerPoint
Open the powerpoint presentation.
Select "File"->"Save As" (File being the large round office button)
Either click on "Save As" or click on "Other Formats"
Select where to save (this will save as a folder of images)
Under "Save type as", select "GIF" and click Save
A prompt will appear, select "Every Slide"
A prompt will tell you that it has been saved.
GIMP
Open GIMP
Select "File"->"Open As Layers"
Navigate to the folder of images which you created above.
Select the slides you want to open. Hold down "Ctrl" and click to select several files, or click on a file and then hold "shift" and
click on one further below to select those in between.
Select "Open"...Gimp will now load the images.
Select "File"->"Save As"
For the "Name", make sure it ends in ".gif" such as "example.gif" and click save
An Export File Dialog will pop up:
9 Another dialog will pop up:
10 Hit Save and you're done.

After interacting with the Project Navigator, or Search Navigator (The "folder" and "magnifying glass" tabs in the vertical pane on the left), is there a way to send keyboard focus to the code window-pane without clicking in the pane? Clicking has the side-effect of de-selecting selected text and moving the cursor position which in some cases is undesirable. The usual tab-stop mechanism doesn't seem to include the code pane in Xcode.
This is most frustrating when clicking project-wide search-results (which opens the file and selects the matching text for you, but doesn't put keyboard focus there) or clicking on files to temporarily look at a different file. In the latter case I may wish to preserve my cursor position and any already selected text in each file.
As you know you can split an Editor window in two parts. So I can edit one part of a file and look at another of same file at same time. That is a great feature.
How can I move one part to another monitor?
Or is it possible to open the same file twice?
Under the menu item Window, select "New Window". Make sure the tab you want duplicated is selected.
The new window can be dragged on to the other monitor.
I'm a NotePad++ user, new to TextMate.
There are some features that I really like in NP++ but couldn't figure out if TextMate support them.
Double click on a variable and have all instances highlighted
View 2 text windows side by side
Drag a file onto another opened Window
For this one, I don't know how to generate a screenshot ;-p. Basically, you can drag a file from Windows Explorer and drop it into NP++ to have it opened.
A lot of long time TextMate users are leaving TextMate land, actually. So, I'm not sure it's the right time to move to TextMate.
Emacs and Vim both do what you want and more. If you can afford the learning curve it's definitely worth it.
As for your question:
View 2 text windows side by side
You can have two or more windows for the same document. Assuming you are in a "project" right-click your file in the drawer and choose Open "foo.ext" in New Window. The two "views" contents are more or less in sync but doing cool things like columnar editing tends to break the syncing.
Due to how Mac OS X manages windows, the new window will probably be too large/too small and/or placed in a less than useful place. I use ShiftIt system wide to manage my windows and in such a case have them the same size side by side.
Double click on a variable and have all instances highlighted
What do you use this for? Is this visual highlight or non-contiguous selection?
Type ctrlw to select the word, then ⌘e to make the word your search term, then ⇧⌘f or Edit > Find > Find in Project… It will show all instances of the search term in another window. You can then "jump" to any occurence and do whatever you want.
If you only want to jump from occurence to occurence, select the word then type ⌘e then ⌘g to jump to the next occurence.
Another way is to type ctrls, a little text field appears at the bottom of your window where you can type a word and see its first occurence selected in real time. Repeatly typing ctrls will cycle through the occurences.
Drag a file onto another opened Window
You can drag & drop a file on TextMate's icon in the Dock. You can also right-click the file and choose Open with TextMate *or Open with…*. If you are in a "project" you can right-click and choose Add Existing Files…. Opening multiple files in TextMate will automatically create a "project" for you.

I just tried this and it doesn't seem to recognize this functionality. the only time any sort of "add" icon came up was when I dragged the file into an open document and then released, but that resulted in adding the contents of the file into the document.
I just did a quick google search for "textmate split view" and it still doesn't seem to be supported according to some of the answers i found (one from macromates wiki).
Double click on a variable and have all instances highlighted
This also doesn't seem to be supported. This post suggests using the command + f (find), put the word into find, then command + g to jump to the next instance of that word.
There are definitely some things that can be added to textmate to make it more robust. If you are looking for something similar and are on a windows machine, you should check out e text editor. I loved that editor when I was working on a windows machine - split view is supported, but not sure about the highlighting. One thing that e also beats out textmate is the real time regular expression highlighting.
