Right or Left ?
A simple multimedia setup can be a display monitor with speakers positioned on both sides. Think of this equipment as being on a 'stage' in a theater, and the user as being the 'audience' in that theater. What is called the "left" speaker -- is it the one on the left of the audience (as viewed by the audience), or the one on the left of the stage (as viewed by an actor standing ON the stage, facing out towards the audience) ? mikus

You plug the left speakers into the jack marked left and let the recording studio worry about stage left or stage right. In computers, though, one has to make sure all the wires are plugged in correctly, and most home builders and factory assemblers don't care. Which is why digital transfer is important. An easy test is to turn off one side using a multimedia control like balance and seeing which speaker talks and adjusting the wires according if needed. -- Bill Thanks a Million!

Hi Mikus Your question begs the response "Where is your left ear?" ;-) It should be on the same side as the left speaker when facing towards the soundstage. Hope that helps.

Thank you, Pete and Bill. (I've got some speaker brochures
showing it the one way, and one showing it the other way.)

p.s. But if it depends upon "where is my left ear?", does
that mean that if I were to sit for long periods with
my back to the soundstage, then I ought to interchange
the 'left' and 'right' speakers while doing so ? 8-)

(I've got some speaker brochures > showing it the one way, and one showing it the other way.) That's hard to understand. Headsets are always labelled "Left" and "Right"; headsets and speakers are the same thing. If the Left headset connects to the Left output, then that is what the Left speaker has to do too. It isn't reasonable to expect that the Left headset should be connected to the Right output, so the same is true for speakers. -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel Saddam is gone.

Actually, it isn't clear to me that there is really a problem, except for people who have a mental map of the conventional seating of symphony orchestras.

Changing x-axis plot from right to left to left to right
Hi, For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) I am aware of set xrange reverse but this just inverts the whole graph and displays from 17 .... 1 down along the x-axis rather than plotting the other way round. I'm rather stuck and would appreciate some advice. Regards Jamie On 14.08.2012 17:52, Jamie Rees wrote: > For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my > data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, > at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) That makes no sense whatsoever. gnuplot generates some kind of picture. It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever whether a line was drawn from left to right or right to left --- it'll be the same line in the end, consisisting of exactly the same pixels being coloured. So since this doesn't make sense, maybe you should tell us what your actual problem is, so we can find out how that might be solved.

See http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal Kepler 1.0-beta should be out sometime soon, they have a number of Mac users and have built from a very recent version of the Ptolemy tree, so the problem might be fixed there.

unmatched left/right
$\left[yadda yadda$ normal text $\right]$ vs $\left[yadda yadda \text{ normal text } \right]$ First one is visually correct except missing ] symbol at the end and gives errors because of unmatched left/right. (doesn't seem to allow spanding across several math modes) The second doesn't automatically break the text like the first one. I guess \left and \right measure the height of everything inbetween to set the font size? But doesn't span outside a math mode. Possible, if there are no other valid solutions, to create a new left and right's that do this regardless of math mode? e.g., \leftt{1}{[}$yadda yadda$ normal text \rightt{1}{]} where leftt{1} is paired with \rightt{1} regardless of what happens inbetween.

Why not automatic \left and \right ?
Hi folks, I've been wondering why \left and \right aren't assumed in the math mode. I thought it would be nice if \left and \right were automatic. I mean, I'd like all opening parens "(" to be regarded as "\left(" and closing parens as "\right)". It is rare (in my use) that automatic "\left(" or "\right)" would do any harm. When parens aren't paired, we could still use \left or \right: \left( something tall \right. If we ever need to suppress the stretching of parens, we could explicitly say something li...

I've two functions. currentHeadline looks in $_GET for a variable called 'image' and prints what it finds. showThumbnail takes an image for a parameter and resizes it before sending it to the screen. But when I do this: <?php showThumbnail(currentImage(), 20, 20); ?> showThumbnail is telling me that it is not being given a file name, and currentImage is printing the file name to the screen. How is that possible? What is the right way to do this? lawrence k wrote: > I've two functions. currentHeadline looks in $_GET for a variable > called 'image' and pr...

Changing x-axis plot from right to left to left to right
Hi, For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) I am aware of set xrange reverse but this just inverts the whole graph and displays from 17 .... 1 down along the x-axis rather than plotting the other way round. I'm rather stuck and would appreciate some advice. Regards Jamie On 14.08.2012 17:52, Jamie Rees wrote: > For mathematical reasons, I need to change the way that gnuplots my > data along the X axis from right to left to left to right (that is, > at the minute it plots from 20 down to 1, not from 1 to 20) That makes no sense whatsoever. gnuplot generates some kind of picture. It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever whether a line was drawn from left to right or right to left --- it'll be the same line in the end, consisisting of exactly the same pixels being coloured. So since this doesn't make sense, maybe you should tell us what your actual problem is, so we can find out how that might be solved.

Changing M-<right,left> to C-<right,left>
Hello, I tried to change the word moving behaviour as shown in the post title and could not. Part of my .emacs is below. (global-set-key (kbd "C-z") 'undo) (global-set-key (kbd "C-<right>") 'forward-word) (global-set-key (kbd "C-<left>") 'backward-word) Finally, how could I open a new buffer proportionally in the same window? For instance, if I open a new buffer with C-x 2 and then open the new buffer the window is split in two equal halves. I'd prefer to have it 70%, 30%.

right-click drag for Modal Model on Mac OS Xright-click drag for Modal Model on Mac OS X
An old problem seems to have resurfaced: I can't draw transitions between states in a Modal Model on a Mac. I'm running Ptolemy 5.0.1 on a Mac Powerbook running Mac OS X 10.4.6 using JVERSION=1.5.0_06 (according to ptinvoke). The arcs are supposed to be drawn with "control-drag" according to the comment in Modal Model, and "control-right-click" according to some bug reports. The Mac is a one-button machine, with "control-click" generally mapping to "right click", so "control" is overloaded. The manual (vol 1, doc version 5...
Re: right-click drag for Modal Model on Mac OS Xright-click drag for Modal Model on Mac OS X
Hi Martin, Ah, the right click problem. I don't have ready access to a Mac, so it is difficult for me to fix this. If someone wants to give me a Mac . . . :-) You could try building from the current CVS tree and see if that helps. See http://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptexternal Kepler 1.0-beta should be out sometime soon, they have a number of Mac users and have built from a very recent version of the Ptolemy tree, so the problem might be fixed there. See http://www.kepler-project.org I'd like to see if the problem occurs in the CVS head or in Kepler before proceeding ...

unmatched left/right
$\left[yadda yadda$ normal text $\right]$ vs $\left[yadda yadda \text{ normal text } \right]$ First one is visually correct except missing ] symbol at the end and gives errors because of unmatched left/right. (doesn't seem to allow spanding across several math modes) The second doesn't automatically break the text like the first one. I guess \left and \right measure the height of everything inbetween to set the font size? But doesn't span outside a math mode. Possible, if there are no other valid solutions, to create a new left and right's that do this regardless of math mode? e.g., \leftt{1}{[}$yadda yadda$ normal text \rightt{1}{]} where leftt{1} is paired with \rightt{1} regardless of what happens inbetween.

Why not automatic \left and \right ?
Hi folks, I've been wondering why \left and \right aren't assumed in the math mode. I thought it would be nice if \left and \right were automatic. I mean, I'd like all opening parens "(" to be regarded as "\left(" and closing parens as "\right)". It is rare (in my use) that automatic "\left(" or "\right)" would do any harm. When parens aren't paired, we could still use \left or \right: \left( something tall \right. If we ever need to suppress the stretching of parens, we could explicitly say something li...
Stick left AND right
Hello, I am preparing an index which is typeset in a multi-column layout. Keywords are aligned with the left margin, the corresponding page number is aligned with the right margin. Naively, I use \hfill for this purpose: \newcommand{\Entry}[2]{#1\hfill #2} \Entry{key}{1234} \Entry{keyword}{1234} \Entry{word}{4332} results in: key 1234 keyword 1234 word 4332 However, with the occasional very long keywords (columns are wide enough to hold ca. 95% of keywords+page number in one line), the page number wraps into the next line, and the pagenumber appears at the lef...

Hence I often get overfull hbox warnings and lines continuing too far into the margin.
