Web Services / Re: Publishing a PDF through PXPlus web engine
« Last post by Mike King on March 06, 2024, 04:18:29 PM »
Let me know if you have any issue with setting the content type.  It should work.

As for me, while we have left PVX Plus Technologies, I am enjoying semi-retirement.  Doing some ad-hoc consulting in order to keep active and busy.

Anyway, if you need help feel free to contact me and we will see what we can do.

Thanks Mike,
I think that the application/pdf might well work.  I'm not sure why I didn't think of that.  It should work fine with the IIS front end, I believe.

I appreciate the quick response.  I hope you're enjoying retirement as much as I am.  :-)

Another thought, if the web server is Apache you might be able to use ProxyPass (and possibly ProxyPassReverse) to have the web simply re-route the specific request to your backend PVX Plus web server. 

This could be used to forward to whole request and return the result or to forward a request for the resultant PDF file and simply leave the PDF files on the PxPlus server.

There is something similar available for IIS if needed.

How is the website forwarding the request to the PxPlus web server?  If its by a standard web request you likely could have the PxPlus web server application respond with the contents of the web file and set the content type to "application/pdf".  Basically open/read the resultant PDF file as a binary file and write it to %PRINT_FN.

Assuming the webs site forwards the response that it receives along with its headers the PDF should get displayed.

Web Services / Publishing a PDF through PXPlus web engine

I need to create a label of a specific size, format, font, etc and present it to be printed on the website.  The PVXPlus web engine will be running on one server and the website is on another server.  The website host will not have access to the folders for the application. The only access is through the web engine.

I'm using the *PDF* special file to create the PDF, but I do not know how to get the web server to publish that back to the website.  I'm sure it's simple.

Thanks - Phil

We do not provide support for mas.   You will need to contact Sage for any support with Mas90 or Sage 100.

Nomads / Re: CHART Legends font/size
« Last post by Jane Raymond on March 04, 2024, 09:37:12 AM »
Jean,
I'll start by recommending you don't use the Native charts, as you can see in your example, you can't see all the values in 3D. You can control the values in the dataset legend on the left using the Minimum and Maximum settings, but don't really have any control over the font sizes of the legends in the Native chart.


I recommend using the Plus chart. Here is an example of a 3D Column chart using an Arial font, Regular size.

Nomads / Re: Tool to update providex.ddf file to new version
« Last post by Jane Raymond on March 04, 2024, 09:13:25 AM »
This will depend on what you plan to do. If the dictionary files are updated to the current version, but you don't change any definitions, then there is no issue using them with previous versions.
If you do change some definitions, it will depend on the fields that you change. For example, the ddf file has added a FLAGS$ field to the end of the iolist, and the dde file has added an ORIGINATOR$ and ELEMENTTIP$ field to the end of the iolist. If you update a file definition in the current version using these fields, then modify the file again in the old version, you may lose the values in these fields.

Programming / Re: Can create a Browse Query
« Last post by Jane Raymond on March 04, 2024, 08:28:27 AM »
In the Query Header Definition you can specify a library and panel to invoke to maintain the file on the Interfaces tab. So if you have a maintenance panel for the file, specify it here, and when the query runs a button will appear on the toolbar (or an item on the menu depending on the query view) that will allow you to edit the file using your maintenance panel.
