Adding text to a button.

Can anyone tell me how to add text to a button I created? If it changes anything, it is a sub-menu button

Hi:
Sorry if it sounds like a RT_M answer, but look in the User Manual for the topic Adding Text to a Button and you'll get the step by step procedure.
If it don't answer your question or you mean something different come back please !

Adding text to a button, and related button fun

Ok, I'm new to AS3 (only been doing it for a couple weeks
now, never really learned AS2), so help would be great, especially
as the deadline was more then a week ago (not all my fault there)
I put a text field inside a button and tried to put text in
that button's text field via the following:
hmm.. I'm new to the forum I guess... don't know if it added
the code, the code is: instancenameofbutton.textfieldinstance.text
= "play";
Well that seems not to work... so how do I make it obey my
auth-or-a-tah?
Am I perhaps just slash dot syntax impaired?
Trouble seem to be that putting text over the button blocks
the event.. Is there another way to skin this cat?
A related problem I haven't been able to fix is.. I have a
text field with dynamic text.. numbers, and I want it to be bold.
Where I'm at in trying to figure out the solution is that bold
dynamic text needs to be specially embedded.. Well, I follow what
the help system tells me to do.. and nothing seems to actually
work. Is there a bug here or something?
Ok, one last related thing.. I'm following the book on
"things thou shalt not do" in that I have a good amount of moving
transparent gradients... well 2 of them actually.. but then other
transparent stuff all over the place that.. could be pushing things
a little far. The frame rate's about 14 fps, screen size is only
about 600x450, I am on an 8 core mac pro with a better then
standard graphics card... seems to me that I've been able to get
away with worse on older version of Flash on a G3 power mac bad in
the day....
Well when I tried to dynamically load mp3s, that's when
things started going down hill! now buttons blink, sometimes aren't
responsive at all.. I'm thinking maybe its that I've over laded the
player and ought to think pulling back...
I have on gradient spinning shape thing that I was
controlling by actionscript using the enter frame thing.. when I
disabled the code.. well things worked fine again... accept that
one of my buttons stopped working.. which is mysterious... cause as
far as I know the code wasn't touching that at all.. so I went back
to buggy vill, cause at least then my buttons work! (most of the
time).
So the only thing I can think to try and do is to try and
optimize stuff... the projects a bit of a rush job.. so it's "a
little hack-e" ( well I confess that at my best things are probably
"a little" hack-e, so this is really bad)
So I'm thinking of just changing the code over to a timer
thing, will that make it all groovy? I mean do you think? I seem to
remember hearing something, somewhere, about the enter frame thing
as having some issues somewhere...
What's also kind of strange is that stuff gets strange when
the mp3s are loaded.. There's only 4 of them, small little
snippets.. which probably total only about 1MB or so.. so why
should that make it trouble? Admittedly there's not a lot of
compression on them, and there stereo but?
Anyway.. I guess I'm just wondering if any of this sets of
any red flags for anyone who actually knows what they are doing..
probably not describing things well enough.. but you know, any help
is appreciated :)

same questions, same answers
I'm new to AS3 too. I know the kind of frustration you face,
especially when it comes to finding out the how's. So I'm giving
answers rather than telling people where to look for them (for
now).

After upgrading to 10.2.2.12 on windows XP SP3 , itunes does not display any summary info or buttons/options. The buttons work but it does not display the text on the button or the options available.

I recently upgraded the iTunes software to 10.2.2.12 on my Windows XP laptop. Since then, iTunes stopped displaying the Summary info
, the text on the buttons, the various drop down options. The buttons seem to be working but I can't tell what that button is supposed to do
or the option I am selecting. This is preventing me from syncing my photos to the laptop.
this was not a problem with the previous version of iTunes.
Actions taken :
- I tried downloading iTunes again and repairing the install. That did not fix it.
- Don't want to uninstall it as I am worried that I would lose all the songs and the purchases etc.
1. Has anyone encountered this ?
2. Is there a solution for this ?
Many thanks in advance for your time and help

b noir, my Windows 7 machine is having the exact same issue as nsadal, and I have already confirmed that all six of the Segoe UI fonts are installed on my computer. Are any other Windows users having this problem with the 10.2.2.12 iTunes release?
Yeah it does, although the problem predates version 10.2.2.12. It's been around since earlier-on in the version 10s (at least).
It's usually Segoe UI font trouble on the Windows 7 systems too. Unfortunately, the Vortical troubleshooting technique only works on XP and Vista systems, so dealing with the issue on a Windows 7 system is trickier. (There's a bunch of different possible issues relating to the fonts that could be in play, and so the treatment tends to depend on which issue in particular you've got with the Segoe_UI fonts.)
For discussions of various Windows 7 variations of the "Missing text" thing, and possible treatments, see the following (unfortunately, rather long) topic:

Photoshop CC : Workspace Flashing Black When Inserting Guides & Completely Black When Adding Text

I recently bought Photoshop CC (2 Days Ago) and shortly after installing I jumped onto Photoshop CC and started to set up the prefferences for my personal use and started to just do some basic stuff and see whats new in CC. when inserting Guides & adding Text the workspace started to flash/stay BLACK. I don't know whats going on but my specs are better than the minimum requirements? Any idea whats going on? Operating System : Windows 8.1

Have a look through this step by step guide.

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only sends the original form without text. Once I've changed a doc in Adobe, how can I save it so that I'm able to use it with added text and notes? Also, I'm using a new iPad.

If you are using those apps or websites, they are likely viewing the PDF using iOS' built in PDF previewing, which will not show annotations and markup to the PDF. We have informed Apple of this issue, but do not have any insight into whether or when they will fix it.
Regarding the qustion about importing pictures, Adobe Reader does not provide any capabilities to import pictures into a PDF. To do this, you'll need to use Acrobat, available on your desktop computer.

In popup step how do I get the "text on the button" in the report rather than button index?

(1)
How do I configure the POPUP step in "SEQ MAIN.seq" to execute the second
step (IS OUT PUT IS 20?) in "SEQ 1.seq" when "IS OUT PUT IS 20?" button
hit and execute the third step (IS OUT PUT IS 30?) in "SEQ 1.seq" when "IS
OUT PUT IS 30?" button hit.

The handle to the Step.Button1Label gets you the data, but there are several ways to get it into the actual report.
The easiest is to use the reporttext.
In a post expression, you can use something like
Step.Result.ReportText = Evaluate("Step.Button" + Str(Step.Result.ButtonHit) +"Label")
and then the default report generation will include it in the report. Otherwise, you need to get the text into the Resultlist by various means (check the user manual, or the TestStand II customisation course) and handle the report generation yourself inside of the appropriate sequence in the process model.

How can I set the different boolean text in the button array?

I created the OK boolean button array. How can I change the boolean text of each button to be different at run-time? I changed one, but the others are changed also.

> Thank you for your help
> Unfortunately I'm a beginner of this software. Please you
> explain me more details.
Select the control using the positioning tool and choose
Customize... from the Edit menu or choose it by popping up
on/right clicking on the control and selecting Advanced>>
Customize...
This will open the control up in a new window -- the control
editor window. This window allows for lots of additional
control modifications and allows for them to be saved into
typedefs to promote reuse and make things more consistent.
Once in the control editor, popup on the button and select
the menu item near the bottom Multiple Text Strings.
Close the editor window and the first dialog will ask if
you would like to save the change
d file. Choose No, and a
second dialog will ask if you would like to Replace the
Original Control. Choose Yes.
At this point the Button will support multiple text labels.
To edit the True string, make the Boolean True and use the
Labeling tool to edit the string that is visible. To edit
the False string, make the Boolean False and use the labeling
tool to edit that string too.

How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)

Hello,
Here is the problematic:
1° How can i change the color of the text on a button in Roll Over or Click state (Cs5.5)
- I've many button in a doc im creating
- the color of the buttons is white with black stoke & black text
- in roll over state i want them to inverse the color coding (the text white & bottom black)
- currently the text becomes invisible as black on black cant be seen (ive stroked it white but that looks ugly)
- i would just like to know if there is a function made for this?
My other questions:
2° Ive a presentation on which Ive created buttons which tigger pop-up animations
- i have 5 buttons which trigger animations
- the viewer can chose to Click on any of the buttons randomly
- the problem is once the animation is open how can it be close... either:
a) by it self after "40" seconds
b) when ther viewer clicks another button
3° Ive created buttons linking pages..
- "go to page xxx"
- when i do a preview and click on the buttons the links dont take me to the right pages
- is that normal? (maybe in preview its suppose to be like that)
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'
- what should i do?
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.

You should setup Object Styles - these can also include Paragarph Styles that can be triggered when the Style is selected.

I'm not sure what you mean - I don't do files with Animations

Does it work properly when you export it to the finished file?
4° I would like to intergrate YouTube videos in the presentation so they play inside the docment.. when i tried.. it said the 'link isnt a flash video'- what should i do?
InDesign won't link directly to youtube videos. I think your best bet would be to use Downloader to download the video and embed them directly in Indesign.
5° Once i export it into Swf. how how can i visualize it? or put it online?
Thank you for your time.
You can look up how to embed a SWF file into your HTML - but it depends what you mean by "online" there's a dozen ways to get a file "online".

How can I remove the underline from added text for tracing edits

We have a lot of content that includes underscores and when we use the track text edit feature added text is green and underlined. How can I change the properties of the added text to not be underlined?

Starting with FM11, you could specify a custom colour to be used for track changes, but the styles (underline, strikethrough) are still hardwired.
Even if you try to make the changes to the rack text edit conditions in a MIF file, they will get overwritten as the MIF is interpreted when opened by FM.

How to select different parts of the text? cmd button no longer does that...

After installing Maverics i can no longer propertly edit my work as I cannot mark different parts of text using cmd button. Shift works as before for highlighting all the text from starting point to selected point but I can no longer use cmd to highlight different areas of the text. Is this an OS bug? Or was the button for selecting different parts of the text changed? I tried everything...

It's just a small part of what makes Pages 5 so "stunning" (Apple's word). You think stripping out the nifty ability to mark non-contiguous passages of text was neat? Sure that was nice. But Apple has gotten rid of more, so much more. And for free!
Just wait till you put the product through its paces and you discover other nice features that are missing, such as (but not limited to):
- no linking of text boxes! Yes, that's right. Now a newsletter that had a "continued on page 6" or whatever will be broken by Pages 5. Stunning! (Even more stunning, Pages 5 will strip out all sorts of formatting from documents created with Pages 4.3 and it will do ao without warning and will save the document in a NEW unified file format so that it cannot be opened by Pages 4.3, thereby potentially losing users hours and hours of work. Stunning!
There's more!
- Pages 5 has no mail merge, no bookmarks, no images in headers/footers! Pages 4.3 has those features, but this stunning new release removes them.
- Pages 5 features vastly reduced and simplified set of templates (there used to be about 130 Apple-cupplied templates, now there are about 60).
- Page 5 also boasts NO RTF SUPPORT, so a paper your wrote with Apple's own TextEdit is not natively readable with Pages: Stunning!
- No detail was too small to omit in this stunning new release: the vertical ruler, so you can easily place text or an obejct at a certain place in a document: gone! Setting the default zoom: gone! Status bar reproting word count and pagecount (e.g., Page 4 of 48): Gone! View comments in the left side bar: Gone! Autocapitalization: Gone! Search & Replace: drastically simplified!
But here's the really good news: Pages 5 is just PERFECT for creating a one page-poster advertising a new concert by Apple employee Eddie Cue. What's more you can collaborate on it with someone else, even if they're using a PC. Now that's "stunning"!

Adding Text to a photo...Need help

I'm new to Adobe Photoshop Elements 7. I'm following the instructions for adding text to a photo, but I can't see what I'm typing. I can see the cursur, but nothing else. I can see the text in the Layer, but not on the photo. Please help.

Check the font size in the options bar. If it's really small you won't see it.
Look in your layer's palette and insure your text is in a layer located above the photo in the stack.
You might also check your image's resolution in the Image Size dialog. I've seen a couple of posts where someone changes the resolution to 1 with resample turned off...then can't see the text because it's too small even when they have large numbers inserted in the font size box.

User exit/ BADI in f-32 / f-28 for adding application tool bar button

Hi Experts,
There is a requirement, for adding application tool bar button in the Transaction codes F-32 / F-28 / Feba_lockbox. So that while clearing documents with reference document, they can upload the data(Reference Documents) from local file and after the data is fetched for clearing, they need to download the data to local file for verification. If the data is verified to be okay, then they can go ahead with simulation and posting. They need this verification to be done in excel sheet, so need to download the data into local file.
I found a BADI in that screen is BADI_LAYER but I don't think it is relevant.
Any help is apreciated!
Is there any EXIT ? Because I can not find it too.
Regards,
Nitin

where you did the enhancement?
I have to create the IDOC once Clear docuemnt is created.. It may help me.

Acrobat crashes whenever adding text

This occurs whether there is a text box to be filled in or using the add text function. There may be other things also crashing it but this is the biggest issue for me on my Mac host system. If I open the same documents in a Windows VM using Reader, I can enter text without difficulty.

I'm having a similar issue. Every third or fourth time I save after adding text Acrobat crashes with no meaningful reason (at least none in the crash message)...even though the added text is saved. I'm working through trying different text settings to see if there is a problem there. I'll post what I find.
