• Windows Live Developer Forums Newbie. I want to enhance the image quality.

  Hello, this is very basic, but I need to know the power and flexibility of this tool. I need to see in a superior level of detail, in 3D view, a city with a few mounts... ( I don't need buildings, just the terrain ) But everything that is at a certain distance from the camera looses quality (geometric detail level and image quality). I know this is done in order to increase render speed, to save memory and bandwidth... but I need more quality, and I'm ready to pay the cost. Is there a workaround to increase the quality, someone knows a website, parameter, anything that might help me please I need it, even if it takes quite a long time to display one single image. I need excellent quality. Thanks in advance! Albert G ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development How to turn Subtitles off?

  Hi there, i tried the following to select subtitles and switch them on (or off) switch (g_sub) { case "de_sub": Player.subtitle.visible =true; Player.track.selectSubtitleTrackNumber(1); break; case "fr_sub": Player.subtitle.visible =true; Player.track.selectSubtitleTrackNumber(2); break; default: Player.subtitle.visible = false; break; } The first 2 "case" definitions works well.

• SQL Server RDA Pull method not creating tables/inserting data

  I can't see what is going on, this is the situation: I call the Pull method, specify the table to be affected, the query to be used, the connection string to the remote SQL server , the tracking options (On) and the Error table. The pull method executes with no errors however, no table is ever created. I don't know why, here's what I have done so far: I read the SQL BOOKS ONLINE help on preparing RDA, I set up the IIS virtual directory for anonymous access and on the connection string I send in the user name and password for the SQL server , I went into the SQL Server and grated access to the user name to the database that I am going to access and I made the user a db_owner.

Usually happens with larger emails or emails with large attachments or emails that have been replied to or forwarded from other people.

• SharePoint Products and Technologies WSS 2.0 Multiple Keywords - no results

  Hi, I’m trying to search for two or more keywords using windows sharepoint services 2.0 which comes together with the team foundation server (tfs) and has a sql 2005 server as backend. As documented it should be possible to use more than one keyword in a search: “Use more search words. You can include up to 255 characters.”  Taken from WSS Help If I have “Expression_A” and “Expression_B” in a word document within a WSS document library I get the correct result if searching for “Expression_A” or “Expression_B” as one single keyword. As soon as I use the combination of both keywords as search expression I get no results. What is the reason for this behaviour What am I doing wrong Thanks, Tom ...Show All
