Find out untranslated messages
The relevant information is stored in the locales_source/locales_target tables.
Assuming you're connected to your database (drush sql cli, for instance), the following sql will give you the information you want:
select lid from locales_source where lid not in (select lid from locales_target);
to adapt depending on circumstances, you may have to filter on the translated language on multilingual sites.
For instance, this selects only the french translation.
select lid from locales_source where lid not in (select lid from locales_target where language="fr");
Useful info from locales_source:
lidis just the string id.locationtells you where the string comes fromsourceis the actual untranslated string
For instance, display location and source for strings untranslated to fr, limit to 10 results:
select location,source from locales_source where lid not in (select lid from locales_target where language="fr") limit 10;
Activity Map
Activity map module provides you the way to display the Site activity on Google MAP with dynamic realtime updates.
Prerequisites
*We assumes that you already installed & configured the Activity, Gmap, User User Locations (child of Location) modules.
Configurations
- download and extract the module to the site's modules directory.
- goto admin/build/modules page and enable it.
- It will add a new page (activity_map) and one block.
- goto admins blocks section and enable block to the page where you have to display the block.
- because the map's configuration is fully depends on the gmap module, you can now use the macros to configure the block and page maps at admin/settings/activity_map page
Image Stretch in Internet Explorer
I was working on one of the themes, which had the following structure :
<div class1> </div class1>
<div class2> </div class2>
<div class3> content </div class3>
<div class4> </ ... class1 sits on the top and class3 has an image with content.
Now, the stuff worked very fine in Firefox , Opera , and even IE8. But IE6 did not render the top of the border correctly, and ended up showing only a small dot at the top.
When i looked in drupal.org, i found a few replies, which had various intersting options:
- Increase the width to the size of image, so it will stretch. --> this was a good option but again I found it less efficient, as it would render my class1 limited
- Put a height tag of 1%, IE is notorious in that field --> tried but not worked
- Put a font-size: 1px; WORKING !!!!
in the class , class 2, just add a new tag
.class 2 , .class 4 { font-size: 1px}
...and it worked wonders as if nothing was wrong ever. IE 7+ is happy now.
Final Word: In case you are looking for IE 6 fix, then possibly solution 1 will be helpful.
How to record audio and video on Mac OS X
The following commercial, closed-source programs are widely used to record audio and video on Mac OS X, regardless of source. If you know of others, particularly free and/or open-source equivalents, please add to this list.
- Audio Hijack Pro, $32 from Rogue Amoeba. Captures audio from any source on Mac OS X, including Skype.
- Snapz Pro X, $69, from Ambrosia Software Inc. Captures video up to 30 frames per second, with audio. Also captures stills in a variety of formats, with some rudimentary effects available. Downside: Requires considerable time to save captures, during which no other captures can be performed.
- WireTap Studio, $69, from Ambrosia Software Inc. Captures audio only, from any source that passes through Mac OS X, including Skype. Includes waveform viewer and library functions.
- ScreenFlow, $99, from Vara Software. Captures audio, screen, camera, mouse and keyboard activity. Includes editing tools.
