Expanding Text Keyboard
I have big hands and wondered if there's a way to have the texting keyboard go horizontal as it can for pics and internet? Would make texting more comfortable for me. Cheers
From all that I read, this is not a feature iPhone offers at this time. Let's hope they change that in a future update.

I got a java script from a coworker that allows me to click
on a button and display expanded text. The problem is, when its
clicked, the page jumps back to the top of the page. Any ideas?
Here is a sample of the code:
<a href="#"
onclick="document.getElementById('what_is').style.display=(document.getElementById('what_ is').style.display=='block')?'none':'block';"><img
src="Images/More.jpg" border="0" align="left" />
Thanks!!!!
PS- please be gentle, I have never used java script before.

Expanding Text shows up as links
I have something odd going on. I use RoboEngine and publish
all my projects together. A majority of my projects show the
expanding text produced by using the Glossary Hotspot Wizard
correctly, but a handful is showing the terms for the expanded text
as LINKS. The color of the terms that are being displayed correctly
is red, the ones showing up as links are blue and are underscored.
My procedure for all my projects is the same when I'm running the
Glossary Hotspot Wizard. Any comments or suggestions?
VickHi Vick
I think what is working against you here is the simple fact
you are using RoboEngine. This indicates you are either using
RoboInfo or are producing WebHelp Pro outuput. I'm guessing that
you are in a very small minority. As such, there is simply a dearth
of folks experienced with your product.
Are you able to produce regular WebHelp? If so, does the
problem manifest then? Assuming the answer to both of those
questions is "yes", then maybe we can help. But until we do know
the answer, I'm guessing we are all assuming it may be something
simply related to using RoboEngine as opposed to being more generic
in nature.

Expanding text fields side-by-side in a 2 column layout
Hi,
I've been trying to create a form that is a 2-column layout. This form contains expanding text fields that are side-by-side with additional form elements underneath. I managed to get the expandable fields to work, however, if the user writes too much in the text field in the left-hand column and it wraps onto a second page, the text field in the right-hand gets pushed to the second page. I am wondering if someone has experience with this and could help me figure out how to make sure the text field in the right-hand column stays in place as the text field in the left-hand column expands onto 2 pages.
I've tried to wrap each text-field in their own subform that stays fixed, but that seemed to cause the field to expand over the elements below it.
Take care,

for my bachelor-thesis I'm trying to create a 2 column layout in pages. The left column should contain all contents, the right column should only contain notes and additional information supporting the 'main' column. So the right column only contains a little text every now and then. Using the Layout Inspector and setting up 2 columns fills the right column automatically withe the contents overflowing the left column. What I'm hoping to archive is to create a 2 column layout leaving the right column blank, allowing me to insert Text-fields (unless there's a better way) wherever I need to add an annotation.
Hi Lukas,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Pages '09 forum.
Since you want the text to flow from page to page in the left column, it would appear best to use a single column for the main text, and to limit the width of that column using the right margin stop.
That leaves the right half of the page open for a series of text boxes (or shapes, as shown) to contain the notes and additional information.
I would start with a single text box or shape, resize it to the width you want, then duplicate that one each time you need a new box. That way all your text blocks have a common width to begin with, and if you take care to use only the handle at the center of the bottom edge to resize them, you will not disturb that width setting.
As noted earlier, the floating objects will not automatically travel with the text they apply to if editing causes that text to move.

Expanding Text Glossary Terms into Popup windows
I am using RH6 and I have a help project that uses expanding
text glossary terms throughout all the topics. When the topic is
printed out, the glossary terms are auto expanded and it disrupts
the flow of the text.
My questions are:
Is there a way to quickly change expanding text glossary
terms to just popup hyperlink windows?
If not, how can I find all the expanding text glossary terms
using the Multi Find and Replace?
Can they be searched for in a Report?There's another way. Enclose your glossary definitions in
brackets [a means of enclosing text] so that the definition does
not interrupt the flow. -
Expanding text not working as i would like
Hello,
I am working from Robohelp X5 and have often been using
expanding text within my project. When im creating my expanding
text and hyperlinking funtions it appears to look the way i have
set it up however, after publishing my project some of the
expanding text are already open (cascaded) and some are closed. I
would like them all to be closed unless selected by the end user.
How can I do this?When you apply a hyperlink to any size of text, RH will apply
the hyperlink style in the css stylesheet, which specifies the
character size.
The challenge is to apply your text specs after the phrase
that begins with
<a href= .................>
This is hard to achieve in WYSIWYG, because the RH html
viewer takes some shortcuts compared to the WebHelp output code.

Expanding text in an auto-sized popup window can cause the text to overflow
First Topic includes a popup link. This includes rather long expanding text. When this is activated, the popup is too small to show everything, and has no scrolling possibility. Anyone know a workaround?
I tried to report this as a bug through the Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form, but it vanished into thin air and I can't check whether it was recorded or not...Instead of an autosizing popup you could define a size that allows for the expansion or add some blank lines at the end of the popup topic, on opening there will be white space at the end but it provides expansion space. The latter will not work where the popup topics are long enough to invoke scroll bars.

How do I assign a style to all glossary (expanding text)
entries?
Semicolon1Expanding text is inserted via the DHTML menu, as Peter
indicated; that's why you can't select it from the Style drop-down
menu. You can't indent the paragraph for the style because
expanding text is designed to come immediately after a word. It
isn't a separate paragraph; the text is inserted into the current
paragraph. Because Expanding Text is a character style, you can't
customize any paragraph properties.
It sounds like you might find the Drop-Down Text style more
useful. The text is designed to come after the paragraph that
contains the drop-down link, so you can indent it and customize it
like any other paragrph style. -
Expanding text boxes to multiple pages
I have a dynamic form with expanding text boxes that I originally designed on one page. As I put in the needed items it was clear to have it fit I would need to go to a second page to have everything needed. When it is the first page alone the preview pdf works properly automaticallly moving the overflow to the next page. When the second page is inserted to finsih the form the areas not fitting on the first page when typed into the preview fall off into space and you can no longer see them. I've treid moving around the heirarchy and have not figured it out. Does anyone know hoi to fix this? Is it possible to have a 2 page dynamic form that expands?
Sorry I have been on vacation and in Europe for a week so I was not able to get to this before I left.
The root subform (Page level) must be set to flowed if you want it to act the way you want. When doing that you can ignore the need to add the 2nd page and allow the product to break the page where it is needed. I modified your form so it would do this. Note that there is no Page 2 and I added some additional subforms to break up different parts of the form (Headers and unnamed subforms). It is good practice to name your subforms and if you do any code that was added may need to be adjusted to take into account these additional structural changes.
Please find attached the modifed sample.

Expanding text field & page numbers
Got a form with an expanding text field. Also have page # of # on the form. When the text field expands to multiple pages, it overlays (?) the page # of #.
Any idea on how I can not have the text field expand to cover it up ??The colors can be adjusted ....if its blue on your machine that is OK.
Can you share the form with me so I can see what is happening?
Can you send it to [email protected] and I will have a look. Please include a description of the issue in your email.

I have an expanding text link that properly displays the
expanded text, except for the color of the text. Regardless of what
I do, e.g., change the color in the style sheet and even change the
color within the Expanding Text text box, the result is the same --
black text. What am I doing wrong?Welcome to our community, weltverbesserer
Examine the HTML code behind your topic. You probably have an
embedded or inline styling that is overriding what the style sheet
specifies.
To check for embedded styling, look near the top of the file
and see if you have any code beginning with:
<style>
If you see it, select everything from
<style> to the closing
</style and delete it from the code.
After you have done this, click File > Save All. Then see
if things seem to display as you expected.

How to use that arrow/plus sign to expand text on a page...
Hi all,
I'd like to learn and find out how to use a symbol or icon or
whatever to expand text on one of my pages. We've all seen it but I
have no idea what they're using to do it, in fact I'm not even sure
what the correct name is! I was going to do a view source to try to
figure it out, but I can't seem to remember any sites where I've
seen it.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks.Take a look at the SwapClass tutorial from Project VII:
http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/navigation/swapclassmenu/index.htm
Their demo uses SwapClass for a menu, but you can adapt it
for exactly what
you're talking about.
HTH,

How can I expand text fields in my PDF file which I built in Forms Central?
I'm working in Windows 7 and just created my first form in Forms Central. I have many text fields that I intended for the end user to be able to type as much information in them as necessary. I selected the "multiple lines of text" setting for each of these fields. I was told by someone at Adobe a while back when I was trying to decide on learning LiveCycle Designer or using the much more user-friendly Forms Central that the form fields would not automatically expand in the PDF form, but that I would be able to click or drag on the fields manually to expand them so that, ultimately, they could be printed with all the comments, for however many pages it would take. I've exported my Forms Central form to a PDF file. However, when I type multiple lines of text in the form fields I set up to be "unlimited," I cannot get the form fields to expand. What have I done wrong? Help, please!
We are dealing with a similar situation. We have downloaded LiveCycle and created the form, but as we knew would happen, the changes that come for the content of the form are causing us to max our trial version, and as soon as the form needs a change outside of the trial time period, we are faced with the next dilemma, as Adobe doesn't offer to purchase a single license at a reasonable rate. The only reason we wanted LiveCycle was for the dynamic field feature. I plead with you to consider offering that feature in Forms Central. The other issue that we are having is that our users sometimes need to paste a table into the expandable text field. Is that even possible in Live Cycle? We don't at this point need the web-based functioning that Live Cycle offers. Thank you.

For a new contact in ios 7.1 where is the text keyboard to enter the name
I just downloaded iOS 7.1 on my iPhone 4s. When I try to enter a new contact in iOS 7.1 I tap on + then on name but no text keyboard springs up to write the name. Where do I find the keyboard ????? Thanks in advance fro some help. I'm new at this.
A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 15-20 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
No content is affected by this procedure. -
Trying to add a flowable/expandable text field to the end of a form
I have created a form in LiveCycle Designer. At the end of that form, I would like a Summary text box that expands to allow the person who is filling out the form to type as much information as is necessary and it will all be visible/print when they are done. I have the field to the point where it will expand (finally!) but I have requested that the field allow page breaks (including all subforms it is contained within) but when it expands, it all carries over to the next page and doesn't allow us to go beyond one page of typing. Is there anyway to remedy this situation so the text will actually "flow" from one page to another instead of just carrying it over?
I appreciate you replying to my post and maybe this is just that I have never used the forum before but your reply said that you hoped the sample document would help me and I don't see a sample document attached to the reply. Am I missing something?
