Hi everybody it's Simon mixed up craft thank you for watching my tutorial today I've got another Mother's Day themed project these are these mini little notebook cases I guess they've just evolved from the travel journal that I done so I've just downsized that and made these little ones so I am still at my mum's on my holiday at the moment long holiday and so I'm raiding her stuff so she's got a laminator I had a laminator but when we moved and stuff we just got rid of it so it's something I haven't got again so I've laminated these ones as well the the idea is to just have that small thing to go in your handbag there's nothing too crazy on it I haven't gone mad with embellishments nothing to catch inside your handbag and it just I just want sometimes just a piece of paper that's all I need I don't need little pockets I don't need all those bits and pieces as lovely as they are so I've just done this really simple one so you've got a little Velcro there you could put magnets on there you could have the elastic going around like I did in the travel journal if you want as well and then inside I've got a little pocket here so you can put little receipts and appointment cards things like that and then I've just done two of these removable papers from just copy paper and it is just as simple as that so I'm gonna add another pocket into the one I'm gonna do today on this side just so it's a little bit more I guess it's storage for bits and pieces but that is it so it's a really simple nice little thing just to keep in your handbag so these are the two Mother's Day ones I've done I've done just little bows and little embellishments on the spine there so it's two and then the one I'm gonna make now is for me so I have used the Beyond the Shore papers today love love love these and I'm gonna be using this design here today so I just pop that to one side and bring in what we need so I've already kept my little kind of paper books so basically I just put together how many have I got here one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven I'd say twelve there's a one step together twelve pieces of just normal copy paper and then these have been cut down to six and a half by four and a quarter okay and then I've just folded them so six and a half by four and a quarter I've put through twelve pieces all at once through my trimmer it was you know I've got the this one here so it did manage all twelve pieces if you think it might struggle then maybe do half of that do six at a time but just cut that down like I said two was again four and a quarter by six and a half and then just fold it in half and that's all you want to do so you just I've done two of them if you want to do it all is one big one you can but what you find is the pages start to all kind of cascade on a slope so you don't maybe don't want to do too many pieces together if you want to do three of these you can as well but like I said I've just done two because that fits nicely on this half-inch spine that we've got there so that's those two pieces prepped and then I've got some Velcro dots these are just the sixteen mil ones which I use all the time and they're by the brand Velcro and then I think they're bigger I think we've just put them into this box but they are the Velcro brand but I'm sure my sixteen mil ones let me just check I thought smaller than that these are 0 10 15 no they are 16 mil so it is the right box okay then you're going to need so you need some laminating pouches so these are just inexpensive again I don't know where they're from they're in my mum's drawer so I've just pinched those but again I'll talk about them a bit more in a minute and then you just need a few bits of paper so I am doing as I said this lovely print here so this piece measures up at nine and a quarter by four and a half and what you want to do is score along the nine and a quarter inch side you're going score three and three eight sub an inch one two three yeah three and three eight then three and seven eighths of an inch then seven and three eighths of an inch one two three yep and then seven and seven eighths of an inch okay then once you've done that optional but I always like to corner round round corner punch this side here so you've got a big square there and you've got a half inch spine big square again another half-inch spine and then this smaller one here so if I just quickly burnish that just on that end bit there just so you can see that's the piece I've cornered from the corner around it okay punched that's that piece and then you just need two other pieces of three and one eighth of an inch by two and three quarters and these are for the inside pocket so you can do one or two or none again entirely up to you if you want to keep it really really simple then you can because it's gonna be reused because you just you can as I said you can take out the white bits paper so you can just add more in when they're done so that's everything there now okay so for the decoration you need to do that now before you friendly through your laminator now everything you do you need to make sure it's really flat so heat embossing is good to do die cutting but obviously just that one die cut and you don't really want to do a very thick card because it just means that the laminating pouches will adhere better to the card that you run through it and so what I've done is I've just die cut my initial so s and I'm just going to personalize mine we're just a really simple initial there in the middle which you can just about pick up but it is there you can see it so I'm just using a little bit of glue just to hold it in place you some people kind of you know sale you don't really need to stick anything down because it sticks once the the laminator goes through all the laminated laminated pouch does is just keep it in that place it's not obviously it doesn't actually stick it so I'm just putting a little bit of glue just on this just to keep it in place and then I'm just going to so you want to make sure that you're when you're decorating it this is so hold on a minute and make sure do this right so you flip it over because this is going to be the piece that comes over like so so this is going to be the one that is on the front so just burnish one so bearing in mind that that is going to come over like so if I just grab myself a pencil mark I'm just going to put a little pencil mark just there so I know that the area to stick this is going to be in the middle of this bit here I'm just going to lie that down flat and just pop that down so again if you don't want to put mum like I've done here you could do the initial and just make sure it's within this space here which is what I'm doing now it's all that is it's just really just kind of you know taking it in place so now I want to run that grab one of the pouches and again lying that down this isn't a corner pouch so it's only attached by one side so some of them will be a pocket so this one is just opens up and it's the same on both so it's got that kind of clouded effect some of them have got a clearer side if you have those ones you want to make sure that the clearer side is facing up and that's the piece that goes on top of the front of your whatever it is that you are laminating so but I said these are the same it doesn't matter so I'm just going to pop this through and I'm going to put it right down into the corner just so I've got a nice even like little border because it will not go right up to the end here you can see there's some where I can't get it right to the end so that just now I'm going to use that as the same border to have all the way around so like so I've got the same it's about one eighth of an inch so I've got one eighth of an inch all along here and then with my trimmer now people do this after they've laminated I prefer doing it before because then you don't waste you can read you can still use all this if you run all that through the laminator now you'd have to throw all this away so just seems a waste so I'm just going to grab my laminator and my trimmer sorry and just pop it in here again making sure I'm happy that that's all where I want it to be and then with again that same one eighth of an inch little border I'm just going to cut that so now I can reuse all of that piece there I'm not going to get any waste so I'm happy with all that and then again what I'm going to do is I'm going to I'm not going to do that one there just because it's you run the risk of cutting it crooked and stuff so I'm going to keep that piece on but I've certainly saved enough there with that piece so make sure your laminator is nice and hot most of them will have a little button here and little light that will say when it's ready when that flashes green it means it's ready to go so this one I'm just going to put straight through again make sure you're happy everything lays perfectly down and always put through the closed end first okay don't go in from this end where it's open you always want to do the close end first I'm just going to put that in okay so it's all gone through nicely but I'm going to run it through again I always run mine through twice don't just turn that one off it's great because the laminators these days are so easy to use and they're so portable I remember when I used to do a lot of laminating quite a long time ago and I used to make a lot of journals they're huge the great big like beige things I need to try and get up in the loft actually because I've got some really old laminated diaries I used to laminate my magazines and then roll them up and make them into like little folders and stuff so I should try and find some of those all I'm doing is just trimming that end bit there just to give me the same acetate acetate laminated border there so you can kind of just see that one eighth of an inch little frame there all the way around okay so that is now nice and strong all nice and sealed and then what I want to do is just with my little corner punch again so I'm just going to take off the corners there because the acetate can get really sharp so that just makes it nice and smooth you don't need to worry about that one because it's going to be hidden inside so now where we've got our score lines you can just go and fold that again it will fold nicely and stay in its shape and you'll see it becomes nice and strong like so and then you can see now that that is going to sit on the top there and show my little initial nicely so that's all done then you just need to grab I've got a hole punch here and it's the one eighth of an inch hole punch you do need a small hole punch if you don't have a small hole punch then I would say use your pokey tool to poke through these holes because you do need something small but I'll just do these two first just to show you so right at the very top and you just see there on that half inch spine right to the very very edge of where the paper is before it hits the clear laminated bit here I've just done those two holes together and then I want to do exactly the same again at the other end so you're doing that not on the spine where you've got this little flap your little kind of closure but on the opposite one there I've got a piece here this is the one mil elastic and this is coming in at 10 and a half inches okay so you can see it here it's just very very thin now if you're doing a bigger one like you see I used on my traveller's notebook that was really really thick elastic but it was such a big um obviously no case whereas this is so small you don't need that masses of amount but you could I guess it wouldn't hurt if you did have that it would just make it a little bit bulky that's all so all you want to do is basically we're going to create two elastic kind of um lines here which is what we're going to hook the paper onto so starting from the bottom just come under all right so you're coming up like so and then with the other end and like so okay so we're coming all the way up it should just meet but you're going to pull these really really taught so that's why you might think oh they're not going to it's not going to reach it will because you need to start pulling it so then you feed them back both back through there so you can see I've gone under so I'm coming both of them are coming out on the back here and they've both gone in you can see there on the outside so that is what you'll have on the outside okay on the bottom and then on the top they'll be both coming out so now you want to pull them really really tight so that it's almost like a guitar string okay turn it over and just tie it into a knot so it's nice and tight okay so that's now nice and secure you can just trim that right off like so now what I've done is I just left that kind of knot on the outside because I then covered it with some ribbon I thread some ribbon through and I added the little embellishment and just tied it in a bow so that hides it all because I'm not going to be doing that now this time all I'm going to do is just pull it through just so it comes down just to the top there that's now going to be hidden inside the middle part of this here so now just grab one of them pick up one of the elastic pieces and you want to just thread the book through it will just literally kind of rub against the ends but it's fine because once it gets to that middle section it will then fold over nicely okay so now that knot is hidden and again just grab that other one grab that other piece of elastic so I can't seem to pick it up with my nails there we go and again just thread the other piece through like so and there you have it so now you can see the two little books with just plain paper that's all I want I just want something to scribble in I don't have to stick to a line I can just literally just do door when you quickly think of something I just wanted to have something to write it down so now I can just add my Velcro if you are using the elastic then you would have to hole punch a hole here on this end and just follow what I do in the traveler's notebook which I will attach to this video and also at the end as well but I'm just using quick easy velcro and that does the job perfectly so I've just taken two of these off and you want to put them towards the outer edge of the little kind of fold over lip here and again do one down there and then just line it up so that this top bit here sits in the the most outer score line of the bind so the top score line there just kind of sit them together and then put the Velcro down so make sure everything's lined up like so and there you have it I mean that's just so quick and easy and that's now going to last forever it's laminated it's sealed nothing's going to get in it I want to have finished and filled up all these bits and pieces here I can just cut some more copy paper and feed it through so one other bit I forgot to add is the pocket but that's fine because I've done it at this point anyway so the pockets we've got these two pieces here and all you want to do so you've got your three and one eighth of an inch piece along the bottom and your two and three quarter on the side here I just cut one here that's the shape you want to cut so you're not cutting from corner to corner you're kind of coming up by about half an inch and then cutting across so you've got half an inch there so if you want to draw a pencil mark for that you can but then all I'm going to do is sit it on top of my other piece and then just roughly use that so it's just a rough way of cutting it there and then just with my red tape because the red tapes are really really strong again if you're going to sit there and pick it this will come off but I don't intend to do that so red tape will be enough and it's only to hold like I said just a little receipt or an important piece of paper that I've just screwed up in my pocket that I need to keep or this is just I just wanted a really practical little you know notebook nothing too bulky so this should work very well so this is the first one so because you stick the other one opposite so let me just take this one off first like so and then all you're going to do is just sit it in so you get a nice little equal kind of border running on the top and the bottom like so so now you've got a nice little pocket there so like I said put the papers in and then this one here is going to go on the back I think this might now by which just come off it's on the top so I can rub that off in a minute this one is going to go that way up so it's a little bit taller so so there's that pocket I've got that pocket there and then it all just velcro is up nicely so again if that gets bulky and I do need to fold other bits and pieces in there it will still last fine so there you have it so there's my personalised one and there are two another's day ones as well so perfect little handbag notebooks so I hope you enjoyed today's tutorial if you did please hit the like button and subscribe to this channel to see more thanks for

Okay, so I recently started using a CNC machine and I wanted to make a sign with a font called Fruiterra So I can show you what that looks like And I just wanted this font to say quiet room. So here's Fruiterra this font and Now a CNC machine needs paths. So the way that you would normally get that is Type create outlines, you know a straighter and now if you look at this path you can see God a path that goes all the way around the text and a path on the inside of the text Easiest way to Illustrate that is to convert it to a stroke and now you can see CNC machine would go around these letters Around this letter problem is Say my I'm using a Eighth inch bit. So my stroke would be Point one two five. So if I want to make a sign With that eighth inch bit you can see this text is too small. So in order to Get something that would work I would have to make a much larger sign if I want anything smaller than that It's probably not gonna work and even then the the black is showing you where the bit is gonna route out of the Wood. So if I wanted to make that say not just an engraving but cut all the way through the wood This white area is gonna be my text inside the black and that's probably too thin. It's probably gonna break So it's not really a practical Method of making this sign. What would be easier is If just the black was a single path now a researched different ways to Convert text into a single path and surprisingly, there's very little out there that does it Apparently Corel draw can do it. I'm not sure how well essentially what it does is it Converts your text to a raster image and then it sort of traces the centerline of that raster image So it's sort of like live trace. It's not super accurate And also you can see here. Corel draw is four hundred sixty nine dollars Um, so Then I noticed that There's a plug-in for a program called inkscape inkscape is an open source program sort of like illustrator It's really great program not always super user-friendly, but A great option if you're looking for for something free And then if you go to this github repository, you can download this inkscape centerline trace so The problem with inkscape centerline well, there's a few things about inkscape centerline trace it relies on a Program for your computer called auto trace And it doesn't automatically install that And now you can install them in your inkscape directory, so It's not super intuitive where that is But if you go to your applications find inkscape And right-click here and you show package contents Go into the contents folder go into the resources folder Go into the share folder and go to inkscape and Now you'll see extensions and this is where you paste it. So Just paste it in here. You can see I've got centerline trace the INX centerline trace dot py and Now if I were to open up inkscape I Can take this file and Centerline trace it, but you can't just You know save out text as an SVG or as a font file And open it up in inkscape. I try to do that Centerline trace can be found under extensions images Centerline trace it brings up some options if hit apply it gets an error You know try object on group You can try that. It's not going to work What it needs is a raster image And so in order to that, you know, you would need to go into illustrator wherever you were typing this thing and Do and save it out as a as a JPEG or a GIF or a PNG So I'm going to go ahead and do that I'm already done it and now If I open that file that PNG file and select it and do extension extensions images centerline trace I Can trace the image I'm going to just leave the defaults for now so you can see how it works and You can play with these to see what works best for you This will take a while actually these aren't defaults like I changed this to 255 You can change this to one which is the default. I think it's super quick But that just basically runs a bunch of iterations to find the best centerline And you can see it has now Traced my font and it did a pretty Well, actually It doesn't do the best job. So you can see it turned it into something like comic sans. So I would have to go into Illustrator and clean this up. It might do better with other fonts. I'm not sure I had to go into illustrator and clean it up It didn't take long Arguably Might have been faster with this font to just draw the paths and illustrator myself But that is how you would get a single stroke font. So if I go now Into illustrator. It's a little easier to see And Open up this file that inkscape created You can see It's just a single path so If I were to CNC route this It would just follow this single path this single path, you know, it wouldn't have to we don't have to worry about the The width of the bit.  So I can make my document much smaller without having to worry You can see it's at like 12 inches right now, but You know now it's that Six inches it's still fine you keep going down from there before it gets sort of too thick To do a good job carving Anyway, so that's how you centerline trace on a Mac in inkscape for CNC route


Hello everybody and welcome back to my channel. I hope everybody's having a wonderful summer and I'm excited to catch back up with all of you before summer school starts. Ahhhh! We're talking about summer school items. I just wanted to give a quick update because I had a couple comments wishing me good luck on the interviews and hopefully getting the jobs. And a couple people asked about if I got the 4th grade position and unfortunately I didn't. If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen shortly after I got the call. Hi there! I am currently in Melbourne, Australia and I wanted to share with you guys the news from the other interview. Unfortunately I did not get the 4th grade job or 5th grade job. I was not offered a position for 4th or 5th grade coming from that interview and it was kind of unfortunate because I was in the plane to go to LA because we were heading to Australia and we had a layover and I didn't get time to ask why I didn't get the position so I'm definitely going to take some time to email and ask about tips or kind of why I didn't get the things. So yeah that's a little update there. I was in Australia for 13 days and it was crazy amazing. So many fun things that we did going to the Opera House, scuba diving the Great Barrier Reef, like so many crazy things and I just can't wait to bring those like fun things and adventures and stuff into my classroom. I also got a couple of books. I always love to get books as souvenirs and just things that like my students can read, my future children can read and things like that and so I got a couple of younger ones and then I got not older but a little bit older. So I got this little touch and feel little kangaroo one. I thought it was really cute and then it has a bunch of different animals. So if I go back to daycare at some point I could bring something like this in or just for my future kids and then we went to Penguin Parade plus it's my favorite animal plus in first grade they talk a lot about penguins. So I thought it would just be fun to get a couple of these books because I never know what grade I'll end up in. So I got Penguin's Parade, Little Penguins and then this one is called Philip the Penguin and these are little blue penguins and we actually got to see a colony of little blue penguins walk up on the beach and go into their nests and it was really really cool to see the wild penguins out there. So that was down in Melbourne on a island called Phillip Island actually. So these are really cool and I'm so excited. And then this was probably one of my favorites, it's called Welcome to Country and it's kind of a good one to talk about like loving the earth and everything like that. And it got an environmental award, environment award for children's literature. So I thought it'd be a really fun one that I could read for Earth Day and it's just talking about the aboriginal people. It's written by a woman who was from one of the aboriginal, from one of the women who was from one of the aboriginal groups and yeah and so some of them like it just has some of the language and stuff so I thought that was really really cool. Something that I can just bring to my classroom and share with my students or they can just read on their own or whatever so I'm really really excited. I love getting books and yeah I'm really excited about that. So let's move on to the summer school. So I hope you don't mind, I'm just gonna be looking through this stuff first look right now. I haven't even looked through it yet. The only thing I did was take out this big binder you can see it's really full and I'm just kind of flipping through and some of the things I see are Literacy Planning Guide and then it talks about Readers Workshop, Writers Workshop. It's still the same school district that I did the long-term sub in and Readers Workshop and Writers Workshop are really big things for them so this is just some plans looks like I'll have a lot of reading to do to kind of get into this stuff but I have a pretty good idea since I already kind of did this so it's not gonna be like oh my gosh coming into this like totally new and then we have some text features which I guess might be really helpful, some articles to read, writing about reading in a reader's notebook and on fiction texts. We're also going to be teaching math and I'm teaching fifth grade by the way I don't think I mentioned that although I think I mentioned it in previous ones or previous videos but yeah I'm doing fifth grade it is for sure actually side note the daycare I was going to work at that I've worked out like the past three summers I think didn't ask me to come back well they did they said I could come back and then like three days before I was supposed to come back they said they didn't need me so now I don't have a job until summer school starts in a few weeks but I have training tomorrow and I was able to pick up my bin today so just a little recap on kind of where I'm at with that so and then they also do a math workshop model going back to the thing here they have a math workshop model number corner opening mini lesson workshop sharing so and then I guess they have some week one examples day four day five so that will be kind of helpful in terms of knowing what to teach so and I'm just quick flipping through here hope you guys don't mind me kind of doing this first look and then science there's a science human mind is Minnesota biome so that'll be really fun let's see oh there might be a field trip so that's kind of exciting so just teaching all about the Minnesota forest and leaves and cones and that's so exciting I'm really excited okay so that is the binder I'll have some reading that I need to do but I guess they're gonna go over in the training this was like picking this bin up I'll show you the bin here picking this bin up was an optional thing to do today so I got it a little bit early and I can kind of look through things but they'll also go through it in the training tomorrow so let's see I got some dice and I'm just like picking things up out of here let's see you got some packets a couple of different books temperate forest prairie prairie you can see that one so a couple of different books here let's see here's a few things that just say some math things with fractions multiplication so it looks like a couple of different games we're getting down to the bottom so a lot of this so it looks like a lot of these though are just kind of materials and sheets that I can use for summer school by the way I've never taught summer school and I don't really know what to expect this is kind of helping me get an idea but I've never done this before so here at the bottom I'm seeing some little info cards yeah just a bunch of different things so I'm really really excited I'll let you guys know more after the training tomorrow the time is getting really long so I'm gonna let you guys go I hope you enjoyed my little update hopefully I'll have some more interviews this summer I haven't had any since my fourth and fifth grade interview so keeping my fingers crossed I'm applying all over within like a 45 minute range which is kind of far but it is what it is so yeah I'm really really excited for summer school to start and that will be in a few weeks but training is tomorrow and I can't wait so wish me luck guys I'm so excited and I will catch you next time


Hello everyone, this is Yenivu Day, your day. And today I just want to play Sharkan Attack. Because in fact I just heard the Skype conversation about the language festival. And now it's very bad here. So I just play Sharkan Attack, because also there are a few levels that I haven't played before. So we just do it. And maybe you like it, but it doesn't matter. You just expect me for my voice, to see me, not to see the game. But at least, I don't want to use my voice. Because it seems that the game has made the time a lot easier. So at least, in fact I just use my voice. And I watch the giant Sharkan attack for it. Hopefully. But it will watch me. Okay. I guess what I can do. But now, where is it? It's a fish. Oh, it's a big ball here. And it seems that the giant shark has already eaten its part. And I can't eat it. So, where is the giant shark? Where is it? I know that it must be around this part of the map. Because there is not a lot of bad space here. And it always likes bad spaces. Oh, what do you want to do? Jump under the shark. And then... Throw it away. Oh, now I'm going to throw it away? No, I'm going to throw it away.  Oh, it's very tasty soup.  I don't remember. But it doesn't matter. Because every night I have a shark soup. Come here. You can't escape the evil day. That's my bad friend. Hello, bad friend. Oh, your birthday is very tasty. Oh, no, not your birthday. I almost ate your birthday. But then I remember that sharks actually don't have sharks.  Your friends are here to help you. You can't have your friends to help you. I don't have friends. I'll throw myself in the pool.   I'm the evil day. I'm the only evil day in the whole world. Oh, maybe there's others. But if I meet another evil day, I probably won't be happy. Oh, maybe I'll be happy. But if there's two copies of you in the world, what will you do with two copies of you? If there's really another evil day, or if I can have that much fun, that's my bad friend.  He almost ate my birthday. Oh, when did he go? That's where he is. Oh, I'll catch you. Oh, fuck, I need oxygen. Oxygen. Where is he? Yes, good, good.  But I don't know how. Can I do it? I don't think so. He's a fish. He's my giant friend.  I totally didn't expect that. So, if you like this movie, like it, share it, subscribe to my channel if you haven't already, don't subscribe and I'll see you in the next movie.


Hello everyone. I am Sanjay Gupta. I welcome you on Sanjay Gupta Tech School. So guys, we are back with one more session on Appian. And I have Ankit with me. So welcome Ankit on the channel. And Ankit will be delivering one more session. And I think this session is related to records. So like, I hope if you're following the session, you have gone through all the sessions so far. And this is something new that Ankit will be explaining. Okay, so I just want to share one thing, like if you want to receive timely notification and the bootcamp information. So you can follow Sanjay Gupta Tech School on YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram and Telegram. And the session tracker link and Ankit's specific Telegram group link you can find in the video's description. So here it is. So over to you, Ankit. Please proceed from here. So if you want to check all the recorded sessions and other information about the Appian, so you can check this, the CodeMestros YouTube channel. And we have the CodeMestros Telegram group as well, where you can find some questions or fun facts about Appian. And if you have any queries, so you can put on this group. In our last sessions, we discussed about Appian process models, interfaces, expression rules and all. Today we will discuss about Appian records. So first, what is record? So like, you know that in our previous sessions, we created process models, we store the data into database, right? So suppose I'm an employee and I'm filling the employee information. So that data is stored into the database. So similarly, suppose there is an employee onboarding that application where each and every employee come and can fill the data from the interface and insert into the database table and there will be multiple rows into the single table. So those rows are stored into the database, but database is not a front-end part, but it is a back-end part. So users cannot go and can directly access the database. So to display the information related to a single entity, we use records, okay? So records, we can save the collection or the presentation or the folder or container, right? To display the information related to a single entity, like employee information or customer information or whatever we are creating. So like how we can create the record in Appian. So similarly, other objects, we have to go to new, okay? And then there is an option record type. So like you know that here also we have this, no prefix of the application that is initials, like AB, that is Appian bootcamp, and then we can give the name. Like suppose I'm creating for customer, okay? Or employee. So I can say, employee. Now, when I click here, so it will automatically create the plural name because in single record type, there can be multiple rows, right? So if I'm talking about employees, so employee can be young, case employer can be Sanjay, employee can be anyone else, okay? So there will be multiple employees under a single record type. That's why it automatically create the plural name, okay? And generally what we do, we do not use this prefix in the plural name because the plural name display in the, to the front end user. And if we display like some initials or anything else, so it might conflict to the user. So we generally use employee zone, okay? But in this case, there is other record with the same name. That's why it was not taken, okay? And it created 80, but you can remove it, you can create, okay? So like this, we, you know, we give the plural name. Description also display to user. So we generally give, like, you can give, like, okay? Now I have to click on create, okay? So we have security configurations similar to other objects, okay? So AB user one is viewer and AB administrator one is administrator that we can change whenever we want, okay? Now you can see here, we have an editor, okay? To create the record. So if you want to change the name at any time, you can go property and you can do, okay? You can change the name, you can change the plural name and the other information like description, okay? That you can change. So first part, in this left side, you can see there are multiple, you know, points, data model, list, filters, view, accents, tempo, performance, okay? So first one is data model. So record as we discussed, you know, the record is to display the information related to entity or, you know, single type of entity or something like employee data, customer data, some type of request, okay? So this data, this type of data will come from somewhere, right? We need some data sources to get the data. It might be database, it may be, like, some integrations where the API is like part of the system from where we have to get the data. We store the data into process instances as well. So we might need to get the data from process instances. So that sources might be different, okay? So for this to get, you know, to select the data source, we have to click on this, tell us about your data. Now you can see here we have four options. First one is database. So if I want to fetch the data from database, table or database view, I have to select the database. If I want to get the data from process instances, because as we discussed in our previous sessions, that in APN we store the data into process instances level as well, right? Like in process variables. So if I want to get the data from process, so I can select this one. If the data into, you know, Salesforce, so we can use the Salesforce. So it is like an integration, okay? If there is any other, you know, third party system from where we want to get the data, we can use this web service, okay? And we can directly give the name of the web service or, you know, the integration or web API and we can get the data. So like this, we have four type of data sources. So in first source that we generally use, that is database, okay? So in this one, I have to select this first one. Then I will click on this next button. Now you can see here we have two button. One is this one, build apps faster with synchronous, okay? Sync. And the second is disabled sync and related features. So what is a sync? So suppose if I'm getting the data from database, so in database, data can be updated at any time, right? So like, you know, that whenever I'm fetching the data, okay, or I'm getting the data from this record, what record does record query on the database table or database view to get the data and display the data to us. So whenever we are loading, whenever we are calling this record, every time it query on record, so it might create problem of performance, right? Because every time it is calling the database or something might be like your own database is not, you know, down or something. So that create an issue, okay? So to improve the performance, we use data sync approach in the record. So in this case, what it does, whenever we are inserting the data into database, okay, or whenever we are updating some data into database using APN, it automatically sync with the record. So whenever we are get, we get the data, we query the data from record, it does not query into the database, but it pairs the data directly from record that is stored in it, okay? So it improve the performance. But if we disable the sync, then every time it pairs the data from database itself, okay? So that's why we use the sync approach. So like if I disable the sync, okay, and click on next, it ask me to select the data store and data store and it, okay? So as we know that in APN, if you want to pair the data from table, we use the data store and it, right? So this is data store that we have for our application, right? So I will click on it and I will select this particular data store and it, okay? Now you can see we have the data from that table. First row, Isangir, John, John, okay? So something like that data we have in that table, right? So it is coming here. Now I will click on things, okay? So once I click on submit or save changes, okay? The data selection will be saved, okay? Now you can see we have type that is data store entity, data store name and entities that we selected, okay? Now here we can see if I want to show the sync reference, okay? So I can directly go from here as well. So it display the data. And if I want to select the other type of, you know, sources, then I have to just go to here and I can change the data store entity. If I want to different data store entity, if I want to change the source completely, like instead of data store entity, if I want to select something else, then I can click on this change sources, okay? And like I want to use the, you know, Salesforce or I want to use any other third party system, click on this change source and it will, I will be able to select different one from here, okay? Now you can see here we have one option that is the default filter, okay? So first I want to show you the list, okay? So in this list, we have these columns, okay? That I can update whenever I want, okay? So this is the list or this is the grid format that we have, okay? If I want to display the records, you know, some of the records to the user, not all of the records, then I can apply some filters, okay? So APN supports two types of filters here. One is default filter and other is user filter, okay? So in default filter, you know, a user does not have control. So suppose I want to show the details to the manager, okay? So suppose I'm the manager and some, you know, the employees are under me. So I can see the data only the employees which are work under me, okay? But not for all of the employees. So in that case, we will use default filter. But suppose I want to, you know, allow user to select something like, you know, that initially I'm showing all of the data, all of the rows to the user, but there is a country filter. So if I want to ask user to, you know, if user want to filter out using the country or department directly, so user can update, okay? So in that case, we use the user filters. So here you can see we have default filter. So in this default filter, if I want to apply, that means I do not want to show some of the data to the user. In this case, we use the default filter, okay? So in this one, I can select any of the filter on which I want to put the condition, like, you know, that if I want to show the users, like if I'm from India and I can only see the records which are in front India, okay? So in that case, I can apply the filter and I can check the country of the logged in user. So suppose I'm the, you know, like in this condition I'm the logged in user and my country is India. So it will fetch the data where country is India. It won't fetch the data where country is other than India. So how like this we use default filter. I can apply multiple default filter also here. If I want to apply the user filters, okay? Then I have to click in this one, user filter, and I can apply like if I want to apply the department user filter, okay? I can apply, I can give the name like department and I have to select the field on which I will filter like department name, okay? I can give, now I can give the option name also here. Like suppose first option is finance, like just an example, okay? And I will compare here like equals to and in the database it's value is finance, okay? So if the particular field value is finance then it will filter out the data. Now if I want to add more options, I can simply click on new option and I can add. So something like that we can add the user filters. If I want to add more user filter, I can add as many as I want. So you know that we just check that once I map that the data source from this, you know, in this record it was showing a list. That list will show some limited information, right? In that great format. But if I want more details for the particular user or particular employee, I can create some views, okay? Like this is the default view, that is some review, okay? So whenever I will click on the link in that grid where username was displayed, so in that case I will be able to see the more details, okay? And to display those more details we create the interface and that interface we can map here, okay? So suppose I'm creating a record for employee and employee have some like major details like employee name, ID, employee ID are employees, you can say department, employee country that we can so in grid, but there might be more details related to employee, right? Employment details, employees address, employees, you know, that other relative details or something that we cannot so in grid, right? Because if we saw everything into grid, then a grid site will increase and the data won't display properly. So we use that, you know, additional view for that and for that we create the interface and that interface we can simply call like this one. So suppose there is AB employee details, something like that, we can directly call from here and we can pass the parameter which is required to display in that view, okay? So that we can do directly from here. And in this one also, this summary view is default, okay? So I cannot apply security on that one, okay? So if I'm able to see particular row in the record, I have, you know, for sure I will be able to see this some review. If I want to change the name of the summary view, I can simply change from here, okay? I can give the name whatever I want. Like that, if I want some additional view, then I can add some other additional views as well from here, okay? So in this one, I can add, I can configure the interface names, suppose I want to show the employment history as well for the employee that I do not want to show on the default view that is the summary view. But I can, for that I want to add the additional view so that I can do here. So as many as, you know, views I want, I can add and views are nothing but the interfaces, okay? And in this, know that summary view, there was no any option to configure the security but in this additional views, we have the option to configure the security. So suppose I want to display this additional view to a, you know, group of people, then I can configure the security also. So those, you know, group of people only will be able to see this. Others won't be able to see this. I can give the record title as well. This is, you know, by default, but yes, we can change this. And like, you know, that we have variable in interface, we create variables in process models.  So similarly, we have RV in record, okay? That is record variable. And that we call all like this, okay? This is record and it, you know, as the particular row and for particular row, we can press the particular column. That is employee name. If I want to use something else, I can use that one as well from here. For this, we simply configure like record type, then record type fields, and I can select any of the fields I'm selecting. Employee name I can select. Okay? If I want to give some background to the particular record view, I can give like, and now we have none. If I want to give the color, I can give the color you can see here. It is coming in gray color that we can change from here. If I want to give the image, I can give the image as well. Okay? Whatever image. So like this, it will display. Similarly, we can add the accents as well. Okay? So accents as we discussed, I think in last session as well, the accents are the, whatever user want to perform. Suppose I want to create an employee. So that is an accent, okay? So in accent, we have process model and interface. So suppose I want to create an employee, or I want to add an employee in our database. So I have to create a process model and one interface that I have to map into the process model. So once I click on that particular button, action button, that process model will initiate and it will show that interface. If we have chaining or if you have, you know that interface into the start form. So it will simply open that interface and I can perform the accents, whatever accents I want, and I can submit that, you know, details. Submit the form, and that those details will be stored into the database. And once the database is, the details are inserted into the database, it will display here in the record, right? Because we are creating the, this particular record with the same table. So the data will be displayed into the record. Now, suppose I am creating one employee, I am adding one employee in my database. And now I want, that employee can update the data, or employee want to updates, and you add some other data into the, his record or his or her record. So for that, we have related accents, okay? So related accents and accents, both are almost similar. Both have process models and interface. In both of the accents user have to perform some, you know, the activities, but in accents user are creating, this entry first time, okay? So suppose there is no any entry for me, as an employee, and I want to create entry first time, then I will create accent. But now I want to update my details from, you know, some of the details, or I want to add some other details related to me, then I will create related accents. So related accents, we can say are contextual accent, that runs against a context, okay? So we can add multiple related accents also here, okay? Similar to accents. So as you know that we checked in the view, we configure the interface, but in accents and related accents, we configure the process model, because whatever, you know, the views are just to check the information, okay? Views are like data on the interface. It's very, I'm not performing anything. I just go and check the data, but in accents and related accents, I have to interact with the interface. I have to put some information. I have to update some information, okay? And I have to perform some activities. So for that, we create the related, you know, the process model, because we have to update the database as well, right? In that case, we have to do some calculations and, you know, some data manipulation as well. So for that, we create the process model, okay? And we configure the process model here. So if I want to show that related accents name as process model name, I can use this one. If I want to give some, you know, static manual name, I can use, if it is dynamic name, so I can use the expression also, okay? So suppose I want to give the related accent name and edit employee details, okay? So I can use like this. And it will create the key automatically. That will be, you know, unique. And description also will be visible to user. So we generally give the name that user can understand, okay? So we can give like click here to update the employee details. And in this one, I have to select the process model that I want to use. Like if I want to use this APM floor data, I can use. And in context, I can give the variables name that I want to pass from here. Like if this is related accent, right? So in related accent, I have to display some data to user so that user can go and can update the data, right? So data will be pre-populated in this case so that user can update that particular data. But if it is accent, so we don't need to pass any parameter because at that time user is updating, you know, creating the entry first time. So there won't be any data, you know, there in the interface first time. User has to create first time data. And here also we can put the security like visibility so that we can, you know, give the security to a particular group of users only to check that. And we have, so support if I'm selecting this one, okay? I can simply click on OK. And you can see where we have, you know, this is first related accent. Similarly, we can have, we can add more related accents and accents also, okay? So if I want to display this to users, okay? Like if I want to display this related accent on this particular view, I have to just go here and I can select this related accent shortcut. So this shortcut will be displayed on the particular view where we have selected this one. And there are three options that you can see, open accents as dialogue books, new tab and same tab. So if I'm clicking or selecting this dialogue books, so it will come like a pop-up window. So whenever I'm clicking, you know, on two particular buttons, related accent button or accent button, it will populate, you know, on top of the, you know, the record screen. If I'm clicking on new tab, then it will open new browser tab, okay? And if I'm clicking on same tab, select same tab, so it will open into the same tab where the record summary was opened. So like that, whatever we need, as per our requirement, we can select. If I want to check the performance of the record, okay, so it can provide the functionality that we can check. Like this record is taking 119 milliseconds, okay? And what this data query and default filters are taking six milliseconds list is, you know, 95 seconds. So like that it displayed to us. So whatever component is taking time, we can check and we can, you know, we reduce, you know, improve the performance for that particular one. So like this, so it, you know, displays the performance on this is a multiple factors that we can check, okay? Okay, so we, you know, we checked about default filter, source filter, you know, user filter, source filter is also default filter.  If we select enable that sync approach, so we can use the source filters, but both use for the same purpose, default filter also filter out the list or at the time of load of the data and source filters also filter out the list. At the same time, there is no any control of user, but in user filters, user have control. In record list, we, you know, checked, there was a grid view where the data was visible into the grid format, okay? But we can use the feed format also where data, you know, visible as a list, but not as a particular grid, okay? So everything will be disabled, you know, visible into the single column, not multiple columns, but generally we use now grid format only. Export to excel the list data. So APN out of the box provide the export to excel, you know, option to export the data into a excel format, okay? So we no need to write any code for that. We have to just, you know, click on a checkbox and we can export the data directly from the record, okay? And the save filter option also APN provide out of the box. So suppose I am selecting the data from India and I have user filter that is country, I'm selecting the data department, technical department. So I have to just select those filters and I have to click on save button. And whenever I will open this record again, it will automatically, you know, pre-select it for me. I do not need to go again and again and select. Record view, we check like, you know, that we can create multiple views for records, okay? One by default that is summary view. For that also we can change the name, but we can create additional record views and we can set the visibility also. We cannot set the visibility of summary view, but for additional view, we can set the security, okay? Record actions that we discussed like actions are the process models or interfaces combination where I am going to create the entry first time, but related actions are like a contextual action where I'm updating the data or I'm creating the data in reference of the particular record, okay? Data sync in record that we discussed like, you know, that if I do not want again to query from database, but I want to get the data right directly from the record that is, you know, in the sync with database, so I can directly get the data from record itself. So this was all about, you know, the records, you can record so that you can practice as you have instances, but if you do not have instance, so you can create the request on this Google Doc form or you can put the request on our, the code mesh tools, you know, that telegram channel as well. So we will get your request and we will, you know, create your account and we'll do the credentials. And if you have any other questions or query, you can put on the telegram channel or the email ID that you can see on the screen. So thanks. Thank you, everyone. And I want to hand over these tools and this. Yeah, thank you. Thank you for sharing all the invites. And I think this email will be helpful for those who wants to have some help from you and telegram group link is already available in the description of the video. Okay. So I think tomorrow we'll be having one more session where you can cover a few more things. Okay. Thank you, everybody. Thank you. Yeah. Thank you. Bye, everyone. See you tomorrow.


All of that can strike the Brigade FTX out here, really focused on getting after company level training. It's really just reinforcing those basics that we've been training all the way from the individual to the team, squad, platoon, and now up to the company level. And having guys that have only seen it at the squad level come in to see it at the company level, it's really a sight to see. And then obviously with this being training, coming level training for myself, really just bigger picture operations that for my soldiers as well, but coordinating through Battalion up to Brigade to other companies outside of our Battalion. It's been a good opportunity and being able to see how we can utilize Brigade Assets, request information, request indirect fires, things like that that are far outside my span of control, but I can still request them in hopes that I do get them and I can utilize them as I see fit on the battlefield. We're going to be picked up for UHCC air assault. We're going to move into Shalton OC and then we're going to conduct an attack on my fire village.


Hey friends, it's Leanne. Happy Tuesday morning. Yes, this Monday motivation is coming at you on a Tuesday because yesterday was a holiday, at least here in Canada, I think in the US as well. So not a lot of us needed to be motivated yesterday. We were motivated by getting ready for all the back-to- school activities and getting back to work and saying goodbye to summer. Yesterday I actually did do a little bit of work just to prep for the busy day today, but it was a great day to get those things done without distraction. So I wanted to update you on the video I made last week and if you haven't seen that video, find it in my activity because in the video I talked about a friend of mine who emailed me in response to my weekly newsletter to say that she's been on LinkedIn for over a year, three times a week and hadn't been seeing any traction. And I wanted to address that last week which I did about how a lot of people are watching our LinkedIn activity in the background and they might be very passive in how they engage with our activity, but they are still seeing our activity. So I wanted to encourage you with that. Well, once you know it, my friend caught wind that I had done this little video and addressed her specific question and she called me. Unfortunately, I was actually on another line and I couldn't take her call, but she left me a voicemail and here's what she said in her voicemail. She's like, Leanne, thank you for doing that little video. And I forgot that, in fact, I did have one course enrollment who said it was due to something that she had seen from me on LinkedIn. And so my friend went on to explain that she had, in fact, saw some traction through her LinkedIn activity. And when we talk about traction on LinkedIn, it doesn't manifest in that head on, hey, I saw you on LinkedIn and now I have this big, fat business lead for you. Now it can look like that, but it can also manifest in other ways. And for my friend, it manifested in a course enrollment. She had created an online course and someone enrolled because she got to know my friend better on LinkedIn and that no like and trust factor was increased. And so she purchased her course. So it can also manifest in smaller ways like someone asking you to be a speaker or a guest on their podcast or to blog a little ditty or even to do a social media shout out. So it manifests in a whole bunch of different ways. So when we start to measure how our traction is helping our business, we need to look beyond those big fat business leads or those big fat job offers and look at all the micro conversions that are also happening, where people are getting to know us better and like us better and then trust us better with business to come. So if you can relate or if you can start to think of those instances in your LinkedIn journey, drop them in the comments below. I would love to know what micro conversions you're seeing with your LinkedIn engagement. And we're going to be talking a lot about LinkedIn engagement starting next week, September 14th. I'm hosting my master class where I'm covering three of the LinkedIn super strategy secrets that I've learned about creating engagement on LinkedIn. These are things that I've learned by watching other really engaging people on LinkedIn. And now I want to pass them on to you.  So I'm super excited getting ready for that. Here is my other reference for the week. Have y'all read this book? It's what most successful people do before breakfast by Laura VanderKam. Now I've read this book before, but September is a great time to read it again or visit your flag post it notes. September next to January 1 September is that great reset, right? Like our kids are back in school. We are done our summer holidays. It's that great reset where we can almost do another New Year's resolution, a fall resolution, and start to incorporate some healthier habits to get us through the end of the year. So that's why I'm going to take another quick, quick read of Laura's book this week. I love this book. I still have it obviously and I refer to it often. So this is the week that I'm going to refer to it. So pick up a copy, local bookstore or your library. And your challenge of the week is I would like for you to think about the micro conversions that are happening in your day and in your week as a result of you being active on LinkedIn. I want to hear about your micro conversions.  I believe in this fully. I believe in the power of LinkedIn. It's just a matter of showing up. So I want to hear about your micro conversions in the comments. If you're watching this video on replay, I still want to see your comments. I've been seeing your comments come in all last week from last Monday's video. So I hope this has encouraged you today. I hope this encouragement not only for me, but my friend who after going back and thinking about the micro conversions in her business, as a result of LinkedIn, she's now energized to look at LinkedIn and give it a second look for the year to come. Thank you for watching today. Happy Tuesday. That's Happy Monday. That's on a Tuesday. Enjoy Laura's reset book and get going on your big, bad, bodacious goals as we head into Q4 shortly. Have a great day, everyone. See you soon. Bye.
