How to use the special character pallet in Maverics with Illustrator

How to use the special character pallet in Mavericks with Illustrator - I follow the help instructions, but the pasted in object looks like a rectangle with an X, I have done this before, in earlier versions of AI, but cannot make it work in CS6.
In fact, I can open an old AI file (CS4), copy the character (a graphic symbol, also taken from the special character set), paste it in, and it works, but can't do this with a new one, from the drop down, Show Character Viewer, in the Mavericks menu bar.

The box with an X indicates the font you are using does not have the glyph you are trying to paste. Try a different font.

thanks for ur time and effort that u gave to reply to my problem.
But my main problem is that when my application (VC++ 7) fires the following query in the oracle database , it does not return any rows.
SELECT count(*) FROM ORGANISATION WHERE UPPER(ORGANISATION.ORGANISATIONNAME)
LIKE N'β%' ORDER BY ORGANISATION.ORGANISATIONNAME
the above question in the previous thread was just to check on sql plus as it's editor does not support unicode characters.

Use two single quotes inside your literals to represent one single quote.
For example, this would find my name:
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE name = 'Michael O''Neill';
Michael O'Neill

Hello to everybody
It's ok for the ~ " # % & * : < > ? / \ { | } characters, they cannot be allowed,
but in a lot of languages there are letters like è é à ù ò that are accepted for path and/or filename;
how to allow these characters? Moss indexes them but when doing some searches and clicking on these files, in the new internet explorer windows the file cannot be opened abd examining the url the è é à ù ò are replaced with other character.

How to know the Special character?

I am using Release 10.2.0.1.0 version of oracle. I am getting a special character, but i suspect it as any other language caharacter.
Its appearing in my 'TOAD editor/Sql prompt editor' as 'A?'. but when i am selecting it from the table using below query, its giving 'No rows Returned'.
select id from tab1 where id like 'A%';
Please let me know, how can i be able to see the exact character or which editor will enable me to see the character?
I think sql developer GUI might be able to show the same but i dont have sql developer with me.

Requirement is :
I have to come up with the SQL or PL/SQL code which should return and find the special or hidden character in the datafiles name in a database. There are nearly 400+ database are present in almost all the flavor of UNIX and i have to check the each and every database.

Hi Frank,
This is excellent function. Thanks for you responce.
I want to modify this query in such a way that .... i should get only those datafiles name which are holding special characters. I don't know how to put this in where condition. :( Here's one way:
SELECT file_name
,       ...     -- other expressions, if you want any
FROM    dba_data_files
WHERE   TRANSLATE ( file_name
                  , '?0123456789.ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\_/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
                  ) IS NOT NULL Among the other expressions you can put into the SELECT clause (if you want to) is a copy of the TRANSLATE function, as you had in your message. That would highlight exactly which character(s) made the file_name invalid.

How to enter the special character ALT225 - the double S in Germany

Hi,
I use the double S of the German keyboard in my wifi password.
Any idea how to enter it ?
This is this one : ß
Thanks,

touch and hold the "S"...you will get different options for the letter...it must be a lowercase "s" and not and uppercase "S" otherwise you won't get what you are looking for. So, make sure the arrow isn't highlighted

How to use the phone's Mini-Keyboard Input with the 'Textbox'(MIDP2.0)?

(My apology. My English is not perfect but I'll try my best. >_<)
Hi. I'm trying to create a textbox(in my own little application) that is compatible with the mini-keyboard input feature.
This problem involved any device that have a built-in "mini-keyboard".
Problem:
I tried the 'Textbox' class from MIDP2.0 but the result, as expected, is like using the phones with no built-in keyboard.
(Forexample if I want to input the character 'C' inthe text box, I need to press number '2' button three times to let it circle through 'A' -> 'B' then 'C'. )
Then I tried entering URLs in the phone's built-in web browser, the result is I can use the mini keyboard to type like a PC keyboard.
Question: How do I implement such textbox that is fully compatible with the built-in mini Keyboard?
I tried browsing through the MIDP2.0 API but it seems the 'Textbox' class there couldn't do it.
Thank you. =)

Edit/Delete Message

The textbox should have input just as any other normal phone input. If not, something strange is going on.
Anyway , there is no use to make your own input method, since every phone has another implementation of this anyway. It would only confuse users.

How to use the video control buttons on YouTube with voice over

I have a Macbook Pro and since I am totally blind I use the voice over. I am watching YouTube videos but I can't access the buttons at the bottom of the screen. I can't play/pause the videos or use the slider. I ca't use any of those buttons. Is there sometihng I am missing here?

I dont know if you will be able to connect other device like PS3 or Wii.
As far as I know only the Xbox 360 could be connected to a Qosmio and could be used with the Windows MCE.
I presume this is possible due to connection of Microsoft products; MCE and Xbox360
To be honest; why you dont take a look into the user manual if this notebook is new to you?
All details are mentioned in the user manual which is already preinstalled on the notebook.

How to disable the special character input by Option key?

Hi, all!
I'm a eclipse developer and I'm get used to type (alt + /) shortcut for code tip in eclipse, but in Mac, when I type (option + /), I got ÷ symbol, how can I disable this functionality in Mac?
Many thankS

On the U.S., U.S. Extended, and U.S. International PC keyboards, the option key turns the / character into ÷.
In the System Preferences > Keyboard Preferences > Keyboard Tab > Modifier Keys... you can actually set the option key modifier to No Action. It does what it says and option + / is exactly what you get.

How to display the special character ' ' ?

I have defined a button with the name '|<<', but in the runtime, it's displayed as '|&lt ;&lt ;', then how can i display '<' in runtime?

Hi bo wang,
I will suggest a solution, take the properties of the button in Layout mode, Click the Display Tab, remove everything in the Label text box, click the Formula button right of the Label text box, use this function TRIM('|<<')
Save it, deploy & run ,.... Check the output now.

Using the Netbeans GUI within a Project with existing Ant Script

I cannot seem to figure out how to use the Netbeans GUI in my Project with existing Ant Script. Is this possible? I have no problem creating GUI interfaces in a java Application, but attempting to make a new JFrame Form gives the error: package org.jdesktop.layout does not exist, and I have not been able to find a way around this. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

How can I use Greek symbols in a text in Pages? Greek symbols are not in the special character list.

How can I use Greek symbols in a Pages text? Greek symbols are not included in the special character collection.
I need to import for example a sigma from Word or Adobe illustrator and then Pages can recognise it. I can not find it from within Pages.

Special character palette from the edit menu does have sigmas under European ... > Greek ...
You can do a search at the bottom of the Special Character palette. Double click on the greek capital letter sigma. You will get a lot of sigmas.
