Text Area (Cursor)

Is it possible to hide the blinking cursor in an input field?
If yes please let me know the code

Whoa Its resolved
I unchecked the editable option of text area which doesnt allow the user to enter anything in the textarea until the audio is completed. This has resolved the issue of a cursor blinking when going to Slide 2 and coming back to Slide 3.
Just need to resolve the usability issue part now
I just need to hide the mouse cursor now till the audio is completed and then allow the user to type.

How to determine the position of cursor in Text Area?

I have to solve next problem.
I need to create special editor for my application.
Page consist of two regions. First one is Text Area. Second one is Toolbar.
User input Text in Text Area. He can use toolbar for inputing additional text in the cursor position.
It should look like in this forum. When I press on "B", tag <b> inserts in my text, in the cursor position.

If the functionality you need is already implemented in this forum software, just pick it up from there!

Drawing a colored cursor on a text area given coordinates

Hi all,
Does anybody know how to draw a telepointer ( ie. a small coloured arrow like the cursor) given point coordinates on a text area? Please help.

This may help... just set the transparency in the png or use a gif
Image cur = getImage(getDocumentBase(), "cursor.png");
Cursor myCursor = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createCustomCursor(cur, new Point(0, 0), "name");
textarea.setCursor(myCursor);

Texts are not showing up after upgrading to version 11

Could someone help me with why some of my texts are not show up on my Flash project? Before the upgrade, everything is fine. However, after upgrading to version 11, my texts are disappearing.
Before (version 10.3.183.7...)
After (version 11.0.1.152...)
The texts in the boxes will disappear, when I hover mouse cursor over it. Those boxes with texts in them are created with an external AS file, and the texts are dynamicaly changed/put in with an external XML file. There is a mask on the boxes, show only 4 at a time.
Demo: www.ethanslin.com/portfolioWorks/flashWorks/demo/
You will see the changes with Flash player version 11, and everything working fine with older versions.
I use iMacs with Snow Leopard and Lion, and this happens on all of the browsers with Flash Player version 11.01.152. I also tested on Windows 7, and it is still happening. Is this a Flash Player bug or something changed that I am not aware of? Is there a work around for this?

This is a known issue and we have a fix for this in our next release. Thanks for posting.

Which event dispatched after text selection done on spark text area in Apple iPad using Adobe Flex 4

I need to know which event triggered after text selection done in Apple iPad. This way i have done in desktop air app code (mouse events)
protected function txtEditor_mouseUpHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
            if(txtEditor.selectionAnchorPosition != txtEditor.selectionActivePosition){
                showNoteToolBar(event);
                txtEditor.focusEnabled = true;
                txtEditor.setFocus();
But in Apple iPad how to achieve through "Touch Event" ? And also i need how to hide all context menu on Spaek TextArea?. Why Touch.End event is not fired after place cursor on text area ?
Please help me !

Ok, so I finally got it working but this is not ideal at all. Adobe really needs to give us some direction on how to properly deal with font embedding and TLF now that the release build breaks all functionality with loading runtime fonts and TLF.
Problem:
I am embedding collections of fonts (faces) into single family classes. Each individual face is registered with Font.registerFont(). I need to do this because I have to have mixed fonts within text flows - at least according to Alex H's recent blog post.
Fonts do not display in TLF without doing the following:
1. GlobalSettings.resolveFontLookupFunction = null;
2. editor.textFlow.flowComposer.swfContext = ISWFContext(this.getFontContext("AnyFamilyNameFromAnyFontEmbedded", false, false, FontLookup.EMBEDDED_CFF));
3. Instead of #2, use editor.textFlow.invalidateAllFormats();
Either #2 or #3 need to be performed. If I have a spark richEditableText control in MXML with defined familes from the loaded fonts. I even tried placing the control into a separate state so it wasn't created until after the fonts were loaded... I still needed to invalidate the formats or set the context.
The "AnyFamilyNameFromAnyFontEmbedded" does not need to be all of the embedded family names. It only needs to be one of them. Once one is used, all embedded fonts work. Also, I have to use the internal namespace to even get access to getFontContext, another oddity that, in my humble opinion, should never be necessary to create mixed style TLF content.
My questions are then:
1. Why am I required to use ISWFContext if I am using Font.registerFont()?
2. Why is GlobalSettings.resolveFontLookupFunction = null; also required for this to work?
3. What is the recommended workflow to embed fonts from multiple SWF files into the release build and have it work without having to jump through all these hoops?

In smartform text editor, cursor is coming very very large. huugeee

While doing smartform, in Text editor, cursor is coming in very very large size....I dont know how to reset it...
for other texts created early also, in text editor cursor is much bigger...
help me...i resetted the formatting...kept standard formatting too...

I would say it's not good choice. It's slow with large files (several megabytes). It supposes multiple features (pieces of text with different font sizes) you don't really need so calculation is slow.
I would choose JTextArea with own view to support colored chunks. You calculations of sizes are really faster because you have monospaced font and all chunks has the same char size.
For highlighting you can use Highlighter/HighlightPainters.
If you still the JTextPane is good read the articles http://java-sl.com/JEditorPanePerformance.html about performance improvement.
Neither JTextPane nor JTextArea are modal. You can place them in a modal JDialog.

Can a script manually insert a delete (or backspace) into a text area?

I'm new to action script, so this may have a simple answer, sorry if that's the case.
I have a little movie created with a simple purpose of trying to mimic a system like cell phones have for character input.
There are two text areas, one hidden off the screen that accepts the input from the user; a second text area in on screen and displays what the user had entered after some basic processing on the input.
The hidden text area is pretty basic with listener that is responsible for grabbing the input keys and then mangling them to be inserted into the displayed text area based on the cell phone text entry multi-tap rules. Example user press 2-2-2 and the hidden input accepts 222 and then appends 'C' to the display text area. That's working great, but I have a problem if the user wants to delete from the display text area. I can't find a way to insert a delete or backspace key into the display text area. I've tried using StringFromCharCode (8) // Key.BACKSPACE, but that doesn't work. That just displays one of those undefined glyphs. I figure that things like clear, and delete are handled somewhere higher in the input chain and that's where I'm having a problem.
I've looked, but I can't find a way to delete a single character from the text area. I was thinking if I could find the cursor location that I could just use some delete character method to get the job done, but I couldn't find how to do that.
Any ideas on how to pull off manual delete function in a text area?

Ned, I do really want to manually (by method of code) trigger a delete in a text area. The delete (or backspace) that I want added to the text area isn't directly entered by the user, it's the result of several key presses by the user. That's why I called it "manual" because it's done by the code, not by the user's direct input.
Think about how text entry works on most phones... if you want to enter a letter you have to cycle through all the letters on a single key until you get to the character desired. As I stated before, if you want a 'c' you need to press 2 button 3 times. This is basically what I'm trying to do, but I want to add the ability to delete a character too if the correct sequence in entered, for example a sequence of ### would equal a backspace.
Rothrock, I think you were thinking the same thing that a single key is used to do a backspace.
I was thinking that I could possibly insert key event into the event queue for the text area to process, but I wasn't sure about that.
Sorry, if this is confusing, I know it's not a straight forward design. I need onscreen and offscreen text areas with the onscreen one acting as a slave of the offscreen one.
The way the code currently works is hidden text area had a listner that responds to changes, and that handler processes the key entered and deletes that character from the hidden text area. After the full sequence of characters (say 2 button has been pressed 3 times) the handler then sends the resulting character into the display text area. This part of the code works great. I can add any character including some specials like tab and newline. However if I want the text area to delete a character I don't have a way to do that. That's why I tried to insert the backspace key (0x08 or ^H, for other oldschoolers), but using that as a char code or string from char code doesn't work.
I had also tried to create to set the focus to the display text area then create and dispatch a backspace keydown and keyup events to the visible text area and then return the focus back to the hidden textarea, but... no luck.

When mousing over text, the cursor flickers constantly (with each letter passed) from arrow to i-beam and back. The problem occurs in both MS Word and Pages. Any idea of how to resolve this annoying problem is appreciated. System: 10.10.1

When mousing over text, the cursor flickers constantly (with every letter passed) from arrow to i-beam and back. The problem occurs in both MS Word 2011 and Pages. Any idea of how to solve this annoying problem will be much appreciated. System 10.10.1 on a MacPro (Late 2013)

The mouse is controlled by the OS so don't guess any app other than a mouse driver or OS X itself would be able to cause this sort of flicker issue.
Have you seen the following and is it what you are seeing? Maybe you could make a movie (Quicktime is great for this this to make a screen recording) - but not sure how to attach a movie to these discussions as mine is grayed out and can't be selected (to the right of the insert image). Here is the what I found for a search of "mouse cursor flickers os x yosemite"

What kind of mouse are you using? Is the mouse driver up to date if it's a third party mouse?

Text area submits

I created a form that submits articles. Articles consist of
paragraphs. Every time I insert a article into a database, I lose
those paragraphs so when its posted on the website, its just one
big blob of text. How can I keep my paragraphs when I submit a
article. Also, when I click in the text area, I can pretty much
click anywhere in the text area. How do I make it where the Cursor
starts to blink at the very top left of the text area.

I lose those paragraphs so when its posted on the website,
its just one
big blob of text.
The paragraphs were not lost, you are dealing with different
systems
that handle paragraphs in different ways.
In plain text, paragraphs are ended with some kind of
carriage return
and|or line feed. In windows systems this is almost always
the ASCII
characters (13) carriage return and (10) line feed.
HTML does not recognize these carriage returns and line feeds
and
ignores them. So they where there in the output, but being
ignored by
the browser. What CJ's function is doing is converting the
ASCII
characters into the HTML <br> tag that the browser
understands. The
CHR() function is for working with ASCII characters by their
code numbers.

Text area not displaying all rows

I have a SQL query as the source for a text field that returns several rows. However, the text area (display as text (do not save state)) only displays the data from the first row in the query. How do I get the rest as well?

SQL as source assumes you will return exactly one value. If you return more, it only takes the first. Instead, use a function body and return a concatenation of what you want:
declare
l_retval varchar2(32767);
cursor c1 is select v1 from t ...
begin
for c1rec in c1 loop
l_retval := l_retval || chr(10) || chr(13) || c1rec.v1;
end loop;
return l_retval;
end;

Scrollable Text Area

Hi, I have inherited a website that uses javascript/DHTML to
create a scrollable text area. I suspect it was created using a
Dreamweaver extension as the pages with scrollable text contain the
following comment lines:
// Extension developed by David G. Miles
// Original Scrollable Area code developed by Thomas Brattli.
I’m no Javascript or DHTML expert but it looks good and
it still works in IE7. My question is, how do I edit the text that
scrolls? It is not initially visible in design view, unless I place
the cursor in either of these two lines in the code window:
<div id="divContainer" style="z-index: 2">
<div id="divContent">
Although this reveals the text in the design window, if I try
and click on the text to edit it, it disappears. I can find the
text in the code window, and I could edit it there, but I have a
lot of changes to make and I would prefer to make them with some
visual feedback of the formatting. Does anybody know if this is
possible?
I've tried searching for info on the web, but all the pages
that I can find point to
http://www.z3roadster.net/dreamweaver/.
This address does not exist and the domain (www.z3roadster.net)
comes up with an asp.net error page.
Also, is it necessary for the site to use frames for this
Javascript/DHTML to work?

Now way for anyone to know for sure without a link to your
page to see what code it uses. One suggestion would be to copy and
paste the text into another document make the necessary edits and
then paste it back into the original document.

Unless the script you are talking about uses a iframe within
the divs to create the scrollable area (which is doesn't seem to do
if you can see the text of the scrollable area in the code), then
it seems from your description that it should work, but only way to
tell is for you to pull the frames out.

AS3: TextField - How do get rid of text select cursor

SC3 - AS3
How do we turn off the text select cursor?
I have a button object that has dynamic text, and the hand
cursor works fine outside of the text object but over the text
object the cursor is changing to a text select cursor!
I am setting selectable to false for the text field.

Is your dynamic text field part of a button? I just created a
test file with a dynamic text field set to not selectable and it is
not showing the text cursor.
Also, are you dynamically generating the text field or are
you drawing it on the stage?

Read Only Display of Radio group and Text area with counter not working

Hello,
I am using Apex 3.2, with 10g for the database
I have this form, with fields that will set to read only when status = 'closed'
All of the fields display as read only except for 2. I cannot figure out why this is not working correctly.
1st field is Issues that is a text area with character counter, with a sql query behind it, that is set to null unless the query is pulling in the data.
2nd field is Status which is a radio group that will not display as read only when status = 'closed'
I have other fields on the form with the same format and they change to read only when the status = 'closed', I have even copied the pl/sql expression from one field to these fields and it still doesn't work correctly. I have also tried javascript for an on load event, which works, but once I click on the save button, it disables all of the page items, which works correctly, but I purposely forget to enter information, to make sure the validations are firing correctly, which it does, but the script disables everything, not allowing me to correct the errors. The javascript is firing on the on page load event.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Dung,
That API seems to have a bug, it returns true/false/null, so you could use 'return not nvl(htmldb_util.current_user_in_group(p_group_name => 'APP Admin'),false)' to get a false value.
Unfortunately there's another problem: using the read-only attributes for checkbox or radiogroup item makes them hidden. My suggestion would be to create another item that has disabled="disabled" in the HTML Form Element attribute in the item definition and display that item or the non-disabled item alternately, using conditions based on the current_user_in_group logic.

Database Table where modifications to message long text are stored (log)

Hi,
As per manual correction mentioned in SAP note 1144291,
we have changed the long text for message XC092 by modification of the long text.
This note 1144291 is a pre-requisite for SAP Note 1310808.
After the notes were implemented, it is noticed that message CURTO1055 has incorrect information in its long text. This is because, the variable in the long text are not correctly defined in the long text.
Both the messages XC-092 and CURTO1-055 are SAP standard.
The error for CURTO1-055 can be rectified by modification of the long text and maintenance of the correct variables.
However, my question is:
Where do we check the log for document modifcation for a message long text.
I have found the logs relevant to my modification in table DOKHL and DOKIL.
But in which table do we get all of the foll. data:
- Message class
- Message number
- Modification name
- Modification created by
- Modification done on
- Last changed by
- Last changed on
Kindly help. A <removed by moderator> solution would be really helpful.
Best Regards,
Smruthi
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on May 5, 2011 12:07 PM - urgency reduced

Hi Smruthi,
The modification changes would be in the SMODILOG table. Please note this is a core basis table and should not be changed, however to best find your changes search under the TRKORR field with the relevant tp request.
Best regards,

Photoshop CC icons and text are too small: how to adjust so they're readable? [was: Joanne]

I have just downloaded Creative Cloud on a new computer. The new photoshop icons and text are too small for me to see or work with. I cannot seem to adjust this so its "useable"

Hey Bob,
Ive put feature requests for this in before and I know many others have as well. Is there any way to see if Adobe is actually working on this? I dont really consider this a feature request, it should be standard with the software. A feature request would be something like creative cloud libraries, not the ability to make font sizes and icons bigger.
