Kofax Capture 8.0 - Document Separation Problems - kofax

I have a batch class (KC8) which is using page/form recognition and separator zones ("Page 1 of" = separator value). It seems like about 50% of the time it will improperly separate the documents, with some not even getting the correct form type, and others breaking off pages 1, 2 and 3 and 4 into 3 separate documents when they should only be one. Of course all of this gets to the Quality Control queue, but when you unreject them they seem to process and release with no problems. Why is this happening? Shouldn't they continuously fail to be recognized and separated properly if they failed the first time? Does anyone have any similar experience or advice for fixing it? Please ask any questions you need to clarify the details of the batch class if you need it.
Thanks,
Matt

I solved the separation issue. Part of the problem was a form id zone located in a place on the form that moved around depending on how much information was entered into one of the fields near the top of the page. Obviously pages like that would not be recognized. I picked a different recognition zone (company logo + text image) that did not move around and everything is fine now.

Chrome Web Store promotional tile Image has been rejected

I have tried (about a dozen times now) to add promotional tiles to my extension's web store listing.
I am getting this one every single time:
"This small tile image has been rejected due to the following reasons:
Text is too small
Too much detail
Please review the guidelines, upload a new image and republish."
I thought for a while that it's about text, but at my last try it was even without a single character in there and it was still rejected. Also I think the text rule is not that enforced since every single one on the front page has it's name on the tile.
Here is the last one I tried (instantly rejected this time so most likely automatic?) https://i.imgur.com/B2Qh7qO.png
Another one I tried a few days ago: https://i.imgur.com/WMcmF3O.png
Any advice would be appreciated.
The Chrome Webstore Developer support got back to me with the response
"I've checked your item and your promotional image is now fixed"
So it seems like a bug somewhere in their system so if anyone else runs into this don't do what I did and spend months trying to tweak your promotional images over and over, just contact them..
EDIT: For some reason the Developer Support contact form is extremely hard to find. Here it is: https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/contact/developer_support?hl=en
The follow up support emails came from these address: cws-developer-support#google.com and developer-support#google.com

Overriding Auto Generated EntityValidationErrors MVC5

I have an elaborate business listing form that I want people to fill out but it's to much to do in one go so I've broken it down into a four stages. The first stage creates the business and works fine but the second, third and fourth are then variations of the scaffolded "Edit" form with parts missing.
My problem is then I can't get past the EntityValidationErrors and get the following error:
Validation failed for one or more entities. See 'EntityValidationErrors' property for more details.
Which I understand but don't know how to fix?
THis is in MVC5 and .NET4.5 and a few things have changed that I need to work out!
I also have this all running on http://localhost// so any errors I get only come to me via the browser, not VS.
How should I proceed?
I just added a bunch of hiddedFor()'s on the pages for now!
I will have to go back and create view models for the different views but this works for now, time is money!

Sharepoint MSS 2007 - Filtering mulitple inputs

I am building a directory tool that will list entries for technical support contacts and listed by its appropriate company. My end goal is to allow end users to be presented with 2 simple inputs, a drop down with the list of companies and a text input to enter the name of the technical team they would like to reach. Sharepoint has made this a nightmare.
Since my server is on MSS 3.0 I decided to use a form webpart where I have added created the 2 input (dropdown and text input). I made the parameters to point to the input and added them to the filters and finally made the webpart connection.
I was able to get as far as making a sucessful filter for the technical team but as soon as I try to filter by client the results are very sporadic and mostly incorrect. I play around with the list filter in Sharepoint designer 2007 tried to group the filters together, tried changing the AND/OR in every possible setting but no luck.
Decided to push it by creating a column named blank that basically had empty values. The idea behind that was to allow end user to leave the technical team input blank and show all entries for the company. I thought somehow it would have maybe solve my sporadic issue but instead made it more complex.
At this point I can probably live without being able to search with blank results but I need to be able to at least filter by company and technical teams. At this point any sort of help is appreciated, been at this for a few weeks and my project is due last week so I am pretty much desperate to solve this problem.
For those that may have a similar problem I have found a work around to this problem. I decided to use the ASP.net User Control and this works much better than the form webpart and provides much better results.
Here a link that I found which help me get me on the track:

Understanding Orchard placement.info files

I'm new to orchard development and spent the last week studying it. I'm having a hard time in understanding some concepts, such as placement.info files.
I've read the article Understanding placement info from the project site and the section from the book "Orchard up and running" related to it.
What I understand:
Placement info files work on the content item level. It is used to reorder the rendering of the fields and content parts;
This file has three main tags: placement (basically a wrapper), match(which defines if the rules will be applied to the summary or detail display) and place (which effectively defines the placement rules);
What I don't understand:
How do I define the order of the tags? In the "place" tags I see "Content:Before", "Content:After.7", "Content:2.9" and some other rules. What does it mean to define "Place Parts_Tags_ShowTags="Header:after.7"/"? Is the placement file capable of moving parts to different zones?
I'm getting a bit frustrated using it. I don't know if I'm not using the right material (they seem very brief and/or outdated). If so, could someone suggest me some links?
I'd really appreciate some help, guys..
Thanks in advance
The name of the attribute is the shape name (usually as returned by a part driver), and the value is where to send that shape. It is a zone name, followed by a colon, and then ordering. The zone name can start with a slash if you want to target a top-level zone (those are defined in the Layout.cshtml file), like this: /AsideSecond:1. The ordering can be a special number, or a dotted sequence. For example, 1.1 comes after 1 but before 2. 1.1.1 would come after 1.1 and before 1.2, etc. after and before can also be used to send a shape after or before everything else.
I hope this helps.

Movable Type 4: How can I show the last asset?

I know i can use
<mt:EntryAssets lastn="1">
<img src="<$mt:AssetThumbnailURL width="100"$>" />
</mt:EntryAssets>
to show the 'last' asset...how do I show the 'first' or 'oldest' assest?
[I'll point out here that "first" and "oldest" are not necessarily the same question.
You'll see why this is important below. Given the snippet you used, I'm going to assume what you're asking for is first as in position within the entry content. Sorry for length, but this is one of my pet bugs.]
Technically, you can't. That bug(summarized further down if you don't have an Fbz account) has finally been attached to a milestone, so hopefully this won't always be the case.
Practically, reversing the sort order will usually probably output what you expect:
<mt:entryassets limit="1" sort_order="ascend">
...as long as you compose your entries top-to-bottom, and don't later mess with the assets much
The underlying problem is that the current EntryAssets implementation doesn't actually take your content into account. It just loads a list of associated assets and then sorts them by the created_on dates of the assets themselves, not what physical order they appear in or even when they were attached to that particular entry. So as an extreme example, if you insert five images into a post, my snippet above will return the first image, as expected. If you later reverse their order and save, it'll still output that same image, which is now the (ordinal) last one. So, back to what I said at top, you're thinking "first" and MT is always giving you "oldest." And this requires an even further assumption that you're always uploading the assets at time of composition. If one of them was already in the system from say, two years ago, it's going to get returned because it's just older than everything else.
If you're using MT4.3x with the Entry Asset Manager in the sidebar of the composition screen and use it to attach(rather than insert) assets, this is going to get even more complicated, because there's no way to distinguish between assets that were associated with the entry via each manner.
So.
If you absolutely need the returned asset to be predictable, you'll need to actually distinguish it from the group in some way. There's this suggestion to tag the asset with "#first" or something similar. It's not great, but you'll at least know what you're getting(assuming you only tag one asset per entry as such). If you've got custom fields available, you might see if it makes more sense to create a separate "featured/thumbnail image" asset field that it would go into so that you could explicitly test for it. It'll ultimately depend some upon why you're wanting to extract this particular asset.
