Is it possible to change the icon (not the emblem) of a file in Nautilus' icon view mode by means of its extension interface?
It would be cool, I think, to see the album covers of MP3 files of embedded ID3v2 APIC frames while browsing folders with music. Until now, I am able to extract the picture and I copypastehacked some example code to add emblems and menu items to Nautilus. But neither the column provider nor the file info provider offer an obvious way to change the icon.
Another answer suggests using gvfs-set-attribute, but I would rather extract the icon dynamically instead of creating a lot of unnecessary files somewhere.
Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions!
No, not with the extension interface. The canonical way to create individual icons is to register a so called "thumbnailer" in the gconf database under /desktop/gnome/thumbnailers. For ID3v2 APIC frames, solutions are already available.

I'm trying to create a powerpoint viewer on my worpress page that shows a ppt file. The problem is that I do not want to be able to download (i want read only), but I can not disable the Microsoft Office online options "download a copy" and "print pdf".
[embeddoc url="https://ceysformacion.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/CURSO-AMENAZA-DE-BOMBA.ppt" width="90%" height="90%" download="none" viewer="microsoft"]
I have also tried with css (display: none) on some classes, but without effect.
Any advice?
I am not entirely sure about the possibility of disabling the MS online option for download so what I can see as a work around are:
either change the way you render the ppt and do something like slide share or
add password/security protected on the file that can be downloaded.. well this is under the assumption that your purpose is to manage access on copies of specific files.
I also saw this thread, which may support my initial point that preventing download is still not available. But again, I am not entirely sure how accurate this info is. Hope it helps.

I am thinking about opening a PDF file with some editable fields in the browser , by which i can modify the PDF file / fill information etc and then save that PDF FORM
Please guide me in a right direction ?
I think in your case Rad PDF can work. It is a PDF Viewer and Editor for ASP.NET by which you can open the PDF with editable fields in browser and can even modify the PDF and save it.
Check the link:- https://www.radpdf.com/demo/easy-integration/
and another one is below:-

Hope it will work in your case.
Thanks
You cannot. Simple.
PDFs are edited by the native app, in your case may be Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer. You do not have control on anything that happens when the user edits the PDF in a native app context.
Pdf documents come in many flavors (standards). One of them (FDF) matches your usecase very closely. This particular standard allows you to edit a pdf form, on completion (or some other event) it would send the data back to a server, collect a response, and modify the pdf with the incoming data.
Keep in mind though that this standard is not often used. There may be a good reason for that (not a lot of libraries support it).
Is there any way to access the internal images that the iPhone simulator uses?
For example, if I want to get the original image used for one of the default app icons (e.g. Contacts). This way I could get the highest possible resolution, and examine it for purposes of creating similar icons for my app.
Another example of an image I might want to access is the default icon for a contact:
I'm not asking for a programmatic solution (although that would work), I'm asking for a manual solution, possibly navigating the Simulator's file system using Finder.
You can find the apps at e.g. /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator4.1.sdk/Applications. The icon of Contacts is at /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator4.1.sdk/Applications/Contacts.app/icon.png or icon#2x.png. But you can't easily read them, as they are in a strange format (it's not standard PNG), you need to convert them. See for example this article or this article.
EDIT: added two more links for iphone icon images.
You dont need to do this.
Just grab a User Interface Kit:
Heres a website you can go to to download the .psd files which you can use for your self for free:
http://webdesignledger.com/freebi
For another library of iphone icons. This one includes the contacts icon:
http://www.iphonestudio.co.uk/page/iphone_icon_gallery
And here are the iphone icons on the main screen made downloadable for your own use.
here are official icons in different sizes.
check the quality of the Photos icon.
wow.

Let me know if it did

I've seen many articles about dragging files INTO a browser, but none about dragging files FROM the browser to a windows application or the desktop/windows-explorer.
I'm looking for a cross-browser solution but IE8 is our main browser.
If I create a link in a web page and then drag that link from the page into Microsoft Word, it inserts a link. However, if that link is pointing at a PDF document, I would like it to embed the PDF doc inside the Word doc, as if I'd dragged it from Windows Explorer, into MS Word.
Is that possible?
I've even tried pointing the link at an ASP page which returns "application/pdf" data but I still just get a link in my word doc so I suspect that links are the wrong way to go.
Thanks for any help!
I suspect you'll find that it is indeed not possible. The behavior upon drop is determined by the "receiving" application, not the "sending" application. As you point out, Word creates links to things that are dropped on it. The browser doesn't have any control over that.
I noticed that you can actually drag a HYPERLINK from a browser and drop in into a folder. After that a file there is created with .URL extension that contains the actual link.
So it is possible develop a program that will be able to accept that hyperlinks (as the usual windows folder does) and after it accepts the hyperlink file, it will automatically download the actual file from internet (by the hyperlink from the hyperlink file).
So the process will be:
drag-n-drop a hyperlink to the app
app recognizes the link
app automatically downloads the appropriate file and stores it somewhere.
I have a psd image with me. This image has been created combining multiple images. I want that each of this multiple images must have a seperate alt tag and a hyperlink. When the user clicks on it, he/she should be taken to the that url.
How can I do it. Please suggest me all options like open source or online tools etc.
Take a look here: Medialab's SiteGrinder. This is a PS plugin which transforms your PSD into a working webpage, I use it for prototyping and to figure out px distances and such, there are services out there too, but have a look at this tutorial too.
Hope they help.
