How to highlight All text in Control / Indicator?

I need a  VI, that pressing a button I could select all text in control or indicator to be able to copy it then by pressing CTRL + C.
 I tried playing with Property node with select-start, select-end, but no results.
Also didn't find any documentation or examples on how to highlight text in indicator.
Could anyone help with this?
Any advice/tip much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The help for 'Selection' mentions that you need to set Key Focus to the control first.
Also there is a system method to copy a string to the system clipboard.

  • How to change the text in Progress Indicator?

    Hi,
    How do I edit the text for Progress Indicator in Captivate 4?
    What if wanted to change the font color, or even create this test in Spanish for example? How to edit the word "Questions"?
    Is there a way to edit the default in Captivate?

    I'm just a Captivate newbie myself, but it seems to be a default style that you cannot edit. Also, changing "Question" to "Questions" would be grammatically incorrect in that case anyway.

  • How to select all text in document?

    I need to select all text in a long document to export to rtf. I only seem to be able to select a story. Any ideas in how I can do it?
    Thanks
    Ian

    Can't be done. You'll have to link all text boxes together in one long story, or use the script "ExportAllStories.jsx" that comes with your default InDesign installation.
    There are other alternatives (all of them using scripts), and the best way may depend on what your intentions are with the exported file -- if, for example, you want to read it back into their original text frames after editing, well, there are ways to do that.

  • How to highlight & copy text from Lightning address book, versus having to open the entry?

    That I can tell, it isn't possible to highlight & copy text visible in the Contact Pane or the pane above it, the one with all the address book entries. Am I missing a way to do this?
    It would sure make the use of the address book in Lightning a lot more convenient & quicker to use if one could do so. Please note I did not say edit. Instead, one is required to go through all the same steps as if editing. That is, open Properties & select the appropriate tab, then highlight & copy said information, instead of just being able to quickly copy the desired text.
    It's only two more clicks, & the finding of the text, which can be cumbersome in some of the small field windows, especially for notes, but when doing this often, it sure becomes a pain. Notes in particular becomes a mini database for that address entry, whether it be your personal record for product information for something purchased (which could be extensive if many of the parts of something like a specific computer were noted), to sharing contact information with others.
    A third use is when having to retrieve security information that is impossible to remember, such as your BTC account(s). By keeping it in the address book on an at-home computer, adds a bit more security, yet you can still easily access it.

    The add on More Functions for Address Book allows several copy functions.

    Also, is there a way to create an indicator with two options. Enclosed is a jpeg with an example of what i need

    Hello.
    Boolean controls can only have 2 possible values, true or false, and there is no way to add more values to them.
    If you need more values, then you must use a numeric control (or a string, but I tend to like numerics better, although strings could be just as useful).
    There are several types of numeric controls you could use to provide 3 or more options. Attached is a VI which shows a ring, a knob, and a slide each with 3 possible values. In your code, you would then perform different actions depending on the numeric value of your control.
    Hope this helps,
    Alejandro

  • How to highlight all child items in a tree control?

    I have a tree control and a boolean button. I want to use the button to select all (highlight) the child items in the tree control. I've seen CVI functions where you can set the active items, but such a function/method does not appear in LabVIEW.
    Any clues?

    Hi settles,
    Once you have all the children, you just need to set the value of the tree control to be an array of all the child tags.  Here's a screenshot of a VI that does this:
    First I get all the tags, then I get the parent of each tag.  If the parent is a non-empty string, I add it to an array.  Then I write that array value to a local variable of the tree control.  Let me know if you have any questions on this method.  I believe the "All Tags" property I'm using was added in LabVIEW 8.0.

  • How to make all text in a pdf accessible

    I want to copy text from a scanned in .pdf to a Word document. Some is able to be copied but other text isn't. How do I make it all able to be copied?

    Until the scanned image of text that is in a PDF has OCR applied there is only a picture / an image - there is no text.
    Post OCR there are characters available for those images of characters that are recognized.
    Not all characters are always recognized.
    What is recognized / captured can be copied and pasted, can be exported / saved as to TXT, RTF, DOC, DOCX.
    Sometimes a scanned image with OCR results in pretty darn good content from OCR that results in pretty good export.
    BUT - anything scanned is a "sow's ear" & a silk purse (export to Word needing little to no remediation) cannot be made from a sow's ear.
    Be well...

  • How to make all text same or different than default

    I heard that I can change the size and style of all the fonts in my applications by creating a custom look and feel instead of set the font individually for every menu item, button, and text field. Is this true, if so, how can I do this?\

  • How to highlight pdf text

    Hello, My Adobe Reader X1 won't allow me to highlight text. Can someone provide me with step by step instructions on how this is done? Could it be my security software that's keeping this command from working, or does this option not work within the free version of Adobe Reader X1? So frustrated!!!.

    Most likely, the file you're trying to work on doesn't have actual text, but an image (probably scanned) of text. If the file hasn't been through an OCR process (in Adobe Acrobat, for example) then you can't use any of the text-related commenting tools on it, since they have nothing to "hang on" to. You can still use the Drawing Markups tools, such as the Rectangle tools, to achieve a similar result.
    To know for sure if that's indeed the issue with your file you can try selecting the text using the selection tool. If you can't select it, it's an image.

  • How to merge All text fiels into 1 text file to read into internal table

    Hi dudes,
      I have 3 text files in workstation. I need to everytime download these files in my internal table .
      But it takes long processing time .ie everytime it opens file read and close.
      Do u suggest for better performance for this? Like how i can meage all txt files in 1 txt file and then read once ito internal table.
      Hope i m clear to explain u my requirement.
      Gain Points

    It actually depends on your requirement(a standard answer from any SAP guy).
    Coming back to the question at hand:
    a) Can we merge these files ? My question to you :
    i) Are you downloading these to your presentation server from application server using WS_DOWNLOAD(I am using 4.5B) or CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD ?
    ii) What holds you back ?
    b) How do we parse multiple files contained in a single file ?
    Keep a delimiter which is unique only for file endings. That should do the trick.
    Regards,
    Subramanian V.
