Virtual keyboard's context-menu: can users add items to it?

iPad's virtual keyboard has a context-menu: when you hold a finger down on the -a- key of the English keyboard, for example, a context-menu appears showing various accented/combining forms of the character -a- from which you can choose. Is there a way for users to add items to this context-menu? Could one add [ð] [u00F0, 'Latin eth'] to the [d] key's context-menu and [þ] [u00FE, 'Latin thorn'] to the [t] key's context-menu?

Unless there is a keyboard language that already supports those characters, then no. You cannot add additional options to the built-in keyboard. There are apps that extend the keyboard, one in particular is the Wolfram Alpha app. While I don't know if it supports the characters you are looking for, it does have an extensive variable based keyboard for input in addition to the system keyboard.

Error -2147467259, can't add item to OPC Server

I am using a DataSocket connection to read/write through an OPC Server (GE SRTP) to PLC software (PME). Everything works fine on my 2 different development PC's in my office, both in .vi form, and executable. I have distributed my executable on our network, and 2 of the 4 PC's we use to test product work fine. The other 2 PC's have the same problem, error -2147467259, can't add item to OPC server. When the OPC Server is called by LabVIEW, it launches successfully, but immediatly shows the 'can't add item to OPC Server'. I believe that it has to do with the registry. I registered the opcproxy.dll, and it still fails. LabVIEW 7.1, Windows XP machines.
Thanks, Alan

For original thread.
I would like to echo Sam's inquiry about launching the OPC server outside of LabVIEW and verifying that it can be connected to. Also, under what user name is the OPC server being launched? Sometimes you can run into trouble if the user name is not the current user logged onto the system, but I haven't heard of it causing this error. You can see what user launched the service under Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Services. You can verify the default user running the application by going to Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Component Services and navigating to Component Services >> Computers >> My Computer >> DCOM Config Right click on your DCOM server and select Properties. Then go to the Identity tab and make sure The Interactive User is selected.

Is it possible to create a Visual Studio plugin that can copy TFS work item ID by adding a context menu in the work item UI?

Our team is using VS2013 and TFS 2013, and in our daily work we often open a TFS query, then we need to open a work item, and we often need to copy the ID, for example, to the email.
But currently the field is read only, and we often manually copy it.
So is there any convenient way to solve this? Any built in ways?
If no, is it possible to create such a plugin?

Hi Lei Yang
You can try the following work around to copy work item ID
for VS 2013:
Right click on work item tab header in VS 2013 and click 'Copy Full Path' from context menu
When you paste it on notepad/email you will get work item ID at the end of the path:

For Web Portal:
Right click on work item link at top and click 'Copy shortcut' from the context menu
When you paste it on notepad/email you will get work item ID at the end of the shortcut:

Can users add page to pdf?

Is it possible to have users add pages to a pdf as needed? We are having applicants fill in a pdf application. Some of them only need one copy of page 3 to tell us their work history, but some of them need 5 copies of page 3. Is it possible for the user to add more copies of a specific page as needed? The users will likely not have any sort of pdf software.

Only if they have a copy of the full Acrobat and not Adobe Reader.
You can use a hidden template to spawn new pages but only with Acrobat.
If you use LiveCycle Designer, you can use master pages to add a new page.
How are the canidates going to return the form or information back to you?

Context menu: How to add "write_review"?

Hi there,
I have created a taxonomy based navigation iview, which shows about 20 documents. I would like to give feedbacks to these documents via the conext menu, so I added the command "write_review" to the corresponding resource command group. Unfortunately the command is not shown, so I assume writing reviews is only possible from the details page of a document. Is this correct or is there a chance to implement this feature in the context menu?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
this should work from the context menu for your taxonomy as well. Please check, whether the service (I think it is <i>comment</i>) is activated for your taxonomy repository under system administration>configuration>content management>repository manager (show advanced options)>Taxonomy Repository.
Hope it helps.
Kind regards,
Dominik

Show context menu only on specific item-click

Hi All,
I am designing an HTML extension for InDesign CC 2014 for Win and Mac. I have been successful in displaying a context menu using CEPInterface 5.2
Below is the code,
function CreateContextMenu() {
csInterface.setContextMenu(contextMenuXML, contextMenuClickedHandler);
This function is called when user right-clicks inside a box. The problem I am facing is that once I set the context menu, no matter where I right-click inside the panel, the context menu is created. Can I set it so that the context menu is shown only when I click inside the box?
Thanks!

Hi,
I have no idea whether this would work, but how about a 'click' listener on the body element with Event.stopPropagation() or preventDefault(); then check the event target, and if it's the element you want, then yourElement.dispatchEvent(new Event('click')) ?
See refs here: Creating and triggering events - Web developer guide | MDN and Event.stopPropagation() - Web API Interfaces | MDN
Just a suggestion, let me know if this helps

Can not add items to the dock

I can not add icons to the dock, I am able SOMETIMES to edit the dock (moving icons around or delete them), there is no rule, sometimes I can grab the icon on the dock, and sometimes I just can't (I have the pop up when I can't) , I deleted users/username/library/preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and issued a killall dock command, with no difference.
any help will be appreciated

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The Dock did not return to default on that command?
Try again and also delete username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
If it's still no-go create a new User go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" (make it an admin acct) and test the Dock in this new account, if it works the problem is isolated to your User and not systemwide.
Let us know.
EDIT: Also are you running any enhancement software?

How to Hide dropdown context menu (ECB?) for items in a list?

Hi everyone,
I don't know the appropriate way to name this thread. I'm sure there is a technical term but I'm not sure what it is. Instead, I will describe.
In any list, when you hover over an item, a dropdown option appears with options like "View Item" "Edit Item" "Compliance Details", etc.
I would like to completely hide this context menu from the user as it only confused novice users trying to use a simple discussion board. Any way to do this easily, and ideally without Designer?
thanks
david

David,
To remove this you need to change the column. By default SharePoint would have this column associated with the view to easily edit the item.
Step to remove:
1) Go to list settings
2) In list settings navigate to the "All Items" view or the current view you have under the view section.
3) uncheck the column [Column Name](linked to item with edit menu)
4) check/select the column [Column Name] (linked to item)

DataSocket+OPC+Siemens=can't add item.

I'm working on different OPC servers and
I'm able to connect to most of them without a problem (using DataSockets
as well as OPC Data Access Automation
Interface v.2.02). So, my DataSocket example works fine for National Instruments
OPC servers,and ICONICS servers,and others but only for Siemen's
"Softing OPC Sample Server" and "OPC.SimanticNET" I get a "can't create item
error" or "cant
add group error" when I OPEN connection.
The connection works fine if I use other
methods then DataSockets or If I use
other server.
Does anybody know why is that?

Adam,
You didn't mention what version of DataSocket you are using. Upgrading to
DataSocket version 3.0 should fix this problem. (If you are a ComponentWorks
user, check out www.ni.com/mstudio for upgrade information or to download
eval software)

Can users add an attachment & save the form?

I am attempting to create a form that users can download, fill out & submit with an attachment. It appears that the only way to add an attachment is the use an online (web form). But I don't see how users can save the online (web form) prior to submitting it.
Is there a workaround that will accomplish adding an attachment & saving the form?

Basically you are correct. Web forms currently have no way of locally saving them prior to submission. You could turn on email notifications found in the options tab to allow the user to see the data they entered.

Use keyboard for context menu??

Hi,
I'm not sure if I'm using the correct terminology or not -- but here's my question (aided with a screenshot).
Obviously, in that screenshot, I can't press "return" on the keyboard to Log Out. Is there a way to use my keyboard to select "Cancel"?? I know escape will actually cancel it, but this is a general question about the functionality not just this specific screen.
Any help is appreciated -- this has been a pet peeve of mine for years!
Thanks,
SS

Functionality like this has to be built in by developers, so although most apps will do plenty of stuff via the keyboard, not all will. In dialog boxes (like your screenshot is), Standard are Escape (cancel), Return (default button) and Space (glowing button, changed via Tab), but hitting the first letter of the button label is generally a good bet.
Dialog box.
Contextual menu. Escape to close.

How can users add their devices to Profile Manager without a user account?

We would like to allow company devices to be tracked, inventoried and managed in Profile Manager without creating a user account for each person so they can log into /MyDevices to download the mobile profiles. We aren't staffed to have someone manage user accounts as quickly as iPads are being purchased.
If we can't do some kind of guest access, can one user, maybe called Enroll, have literally one thousand devices attached to them?
The other alternative is to have the profiles on a small webpage with a password to download.

the easiest way is to use apple configurator
using apple configurator
enable enrollment in PM
un tick restrict to users in device library
apple configurator should pick up your server certs
and the PM auto enrollment profile
setup a enrolment wifi lan
configure your IOS devices with apple configurator adding the
server cert and your enrolment wifi lan
you'll still have to handle each device tapping yes to install each profile
but you should end up with the ipads in PM with no users
from there you can set which wifi you wish them to connect to
eg staff wifi, email setings, VPN etc.
open the correct ports on firewalls to allow PM to work internaly and externaily
and pr any port forwading as nessessary and you'll be able to wipe lock change settings outside on your network, providing the device is online.
