I'm planning to use list & label as a reporting tool for my MVC Web Application, I downloaded the trial version and the sample code was really helpful.
I'm almost settled on using this as my app's reporting tool but I'm thinking twice on their web app report designer tool, because I needed to install the chrome extension before I can use it.
I'm using version LL v.20
So my questions are:
Is the chrome extension really needed for the designer to work? I'm thinking that if my app goes live, will I require my clients to install this plugin first?
Will the designer have issues on other browser? So far I haven't seen extensions/plugins for IE (only Fireforx, Safari, Opera, Chrome).
PS. If all else fail, can you suggest an alternative for this? The reporting tool that I need is web-based and allows end-users to edit the reports. Thanks!
1) Yes, you need to install the plugin on the client side.
2) For IE, there's a Designer ActiveX. Simply open your existing app in IE, you should be offered to install the OCX right away.
As to your general concerns:
We plan to replace the plugins with a client-side application that can be one-time installed with a couple of clicks in LL21. The reasoning is the step-by-step deprecation of plugins by most browser vendors. Changing between the plugins and the new designer app will be quite easy. The new designer will also support previewing at design time. Depending on when you plan to ship your application it may well be worth the wait till October.
I have tried List and Label Web Designer and found that installing additional application for all users is not a good idea. Will look for another solutions, may be FastReport.Net. That online designer is realy online and can work not only on Windows.
I need to create a firefox plugin that allows a user to take screenshots of any part of their desktop and have them uploaded to a server. There seems to be lots of plugins for screen capturing a webpage, but nothing for capturing anything outside of firefox. So after a little research I have not found much information on how this might be possible. I don't want to resort to a using a java applet but I will if that is my only option.
Does anyone have advice on how I might create such a feature?
Thanks
I don't think a Firefox addon is the most appropriate approach here. Maybe split the task into a Firefox addon to offer the "upload to a server" component and a native app to do the desktop screenshot (or just integrate with existing screenshot tools).
If you're worried about complicating the installation process for end users, you could look into bundling the addon component and native app into a single installer (e.g. MSI on Windows, RPM on Linux, etc.). You'll have to come up with different apps for each platform you want to support (and maybe even each version - e.g. Windows XP vs Windows 10).
Whatever you decide, you'll probably need to create a more specific question to get further help here (there's no simple Firefox.Addons.API.TakeScreenShot() answer I'm afraid).
Also make sure you're using the right terminology - a plugin is the deprecated NPAPI approach whereas addons are still supported.
I'm actually working on taking native desktop screenshots just in the last coupel of days. I'm using js-ctypes. My work goal is the same exact thing to, upload to server. If you would like to collaborate I am very open to it! We can chat about it on #jsctypes irc channel :) irc://moznet/jsctypes (Mibbit IRC WebApp) If you don't know js-ctypes thats ok i can handle that while you can handle uploading techniques, and an editor on canvas :) The editor is a huge part of it, you can see my ideas/plans here: https://github.com/Noitidart/NativeShot/wiki/NativeShot
I'm really really interested in a collab on this!
I'm still working on windows right now, the color is messed up: https://github.com/Noitidart/NativeShot/tree/digitanks-method
I was just about to start OSX work following this example here: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/samplecode/SonOfGrab/Introduction/Intro.html and here: Take ScreenShot without Window
You can install the addon from that branch and click the icon that gets added to the toolbar, it will take a screenshot with 3sec delay and then append it to the body of the selected tab. (Windows only right now)
Doneskis baby check it out: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nativeshot/
Got some quirks. Released it as v1.0 though. I'm working on Android support, pretty close. I need to flesh out the editor tools. Please let me know if you're willing to collaborate.
after I managed to create an add on for Chrome browser (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13686561/chrome-addon-with-my-server-interaction),
my next target is to do the same for Firefox.
I see this is harder to do or there arent many good tutorials for begginers.
What Im asking is good step by step tutorials in order to understand the workflow for FF.
Thank you again for reading me!
Take a look to Add-on SDK. Here the documentation, and you can also download it from Github.
I would say that the Getting Started section of Add-on SDK docs is a good place to start your reading.
You can also join the IRC channel #jetpack on irc.mozilla.org and ask help directly to the SDK team, if you have any doubt!
I am currently looking for a way to integrate detail views of selected Jira Issues into a Conflluennce page. It seems it is not a problem at all to embed a list of Issues into confluence, but I am looking for a way to integrate the detail-view of a single Jira Issue into a Conflluence page.
The reason I need this, is that I am currently defining a workflow for formmally planning a Project. Currently I export the Issues of a Project version to Word and then update the resulting document to become a formal specification document. I would now like to do this in Confuence.
Any help greatly appreciated.

This is available in the latest Confluence version, 3.5. Here's the documentation.
Well I solved my problem by creating my own confluence macro that accesses Jira using the REST interface. Works like a charm. If I find the time, I'll try to make it generally available (currently It's extremely tied to our configuration (hard-coded urls and credentials) Will be looking forward to utilizing the trusted communication features in the future.
I just installed this:
http://www.wholetomato.com/products/sourcelinks/FogBugzBundle.asp
but I don;t seem to be getting any of the functionality in my msdev. I am using 2008 professional.
Anyone have any experience with this tool? it does not seem to work for me at all. I never get the login dialog.
After about a week the Whole Tomato team gave me a solution that worked perfectly. Thanks for the support Mark, etc.
the answer is below
After doing some research, I came
across this page:
http://www.mztools.com/articles/2007/MZ2007009.aspx
that lists several possibilities why
it might not be showing up in the
add-in manager. One of them is:
"There is a reported problem that
happens when MSXML 6.0 is not
installed correctly. In this case the
Add-In Manager doesn't show any
XML-based add-in (using an .AddIn file
for registration). It shows only
registry-based add-ins. So, if the
Add-In Manager is empty when it should
show several installed add-ins (not
only yours), try reinstalling MSXML
6.0."
You might try reinstalling XSXML 6.0,
and see if that helps. Download link
is here:

I'd certainly try that before
reinstalling VS2008.
