Applescript: mail text selection

I thought of something that would be handy this morning: what if I could select text and mail it immediately. It sounded like something for automator, but as I am not familiar with how it works, I went and found this here:http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=779050.
It works, but not the way I want, it inserts the text into the To: box instead of the body. Also, is there a way to have it open address book and let me select an address to mail to, prompt me for a subject, and properly insert the selection into the body?
Thank You,

Applescript questions should be asked in Mac OS X Technologies
I'll see if this can be moved.

Applescript get text from mail message

Hi,
I've got a nested script that ideally would work with a multiple selection of emails. Most of the script does but I've recently found the need to add the sender's delivery address to the outgoing message. I've found a way to insert the clipboard but that leaves me only being able to send out one message at a time and I have to copy the address for each message to the clipboard first. I made a script to do that bit once I'd selected the text but this only works from Applescript Editor and not Quicksilver which is what I normally use.
So, what I'm hoping is someone would be able to help me with the a, select the right bit of text between Delivery address: and Instructions to merchant: of each message and have that work with Quicksilver and b, tell me why the following script only partially works from Quicksilver, i.e. the top bit, copy to clipboard, doesn't work.
Thanks.

Shoot! I wrote this huge reply and then quit Safari by accident. I'm too tired to type it all over again (I should install a keylogger).
Anyway, check out the screen shot of my workflow. the AppleScript section is where it xfers the URL from a text editor (BBEdit) to Safari. It's pretty dirty but it works.

Mail keeps selecting text in the To & Subject fields as I type

Since upgrading to Leopard (and by upgrade doing a clean install and then running migration assistance) and the 10.5.1 update Mail is acting very strange. When ever I try to type in the To, CC, BCC, Reply To or the Subject Mail immediately selects the texts and 9 times out of 10 will not search the Address Book. For example, I try to type the name "James" but after typing the "J" Mail highlights it so it gets overwritten by the "a" which gets overwritten by the "m" and so on. If am fast enough it will complete "James" and search the Address Book. Or if there is not an entry it will just highlight "James". This behavior makes it impossible to type a new email address or even to write a subject and extremely difficult to pull names automatically from the Address Book. It is one of the weirdest things I have ever seen and I haven't been able to figure out a way to make it stop. Holding down the right arrow key while typing almost made it work but not quite. It seems to delay the selection process by half a second or so but not stop it. Anyone else experience this bizarre behavior or have any idea how to fix it?

While I take some comfort in the fact that I am not the only one experiencing this problem, it really ***** that I have not come across a really effective solution. But I do have an update that might help but only slightly.
So I started messing around with mail since this whole thing started. What I found is removing the "com.apple.mail.plist" file from ~\library\preferences seemed to mostly resolve this problem in the To & Cc address fields. Problems still occurs as described in the Bcc & Subject fields. I initially thought removing this file (and this is after backing up the mail folder, the plist file & and my messages to MailSteward just in case) had completely resolved the issue but no suck luck. Of course, I had to re-add all my accounts. And of course Mail "forgot" all the messages that were originally part of each account even though they were all still in the Mail folder. This is a pet peeve of mine. Mail won't import it's on mail content formats unless you manually open each email and tell it to move to a folder in Mail. But that's another topic.
After resetting up Mail I can normally type in the To & Cc fields and have it search the address book or previous messages. However just typing and pausing between letters causes it to have the problem again about 50% of the time. That is for the To & Cc fields. For the Bcc field I have to do the super fast typing to get it to do the search. So if I am actually fast enough to type "james" it will find it. If am slow and type "jam" the problem returns. If typing a new e-mail not in my address book or a previous e-mail forget about it. Type it somewhere else and then copy and paste. Basically it seems as though it will work if I can somehow get the field to start the address book search when typing. I've tested it a few times and once the field is able to pull up the search results (i.e. pasting a name that it should be able to find) it seems to work fine from that point on. Meaning you can then continue to normally add names to field or make changes to what was previously typed. But it is tricky at best to get it to work in the first place. The Subject line is still a mess and I have resorted to typing the subject in the body of the e-mail and cutting and pasting into the Subject line.
I tested this several times, removing and then restoring the original plist. I hope I have made a clear summary as to my experiences. Basically the original plist file had the original nearly unsolvable problem. When it was removed and Mail recreated it, I set up a new main account and the To & Cc fields were somewhat more forgiving though still have the problem about half the time. While the Bcc field has the problem 99% of the time and so far the Subject field still has it 100%.
For the record I use the Widescreen and HTTPMail plugins. But I am convinced these are not the issue because I did not re-add them to Mail until I had tested this issue with my regular pop account. Once I was satisfied with the results I installed these plugins and there was no difference in the way the program reacted. Also I use SpamSieve but since it only activates when I have new Mail this did not seem to make a difference as I have tried it with it off and on with the same results. This is the most annoying problem I have experienced on a Mac. It has me contemplating switching back to Entourage.

Text Selection Hangs Since iOS 5.1.1 Update

I have an iPhone 4 32GB on the AT&T network.
Updated it to iOS 5.1.1 about two weeks ago.
Since the update multiple applications (Apple and 3rd Party) have been showing this behavior:
1) Click in a text entry or text area form field,
2) Begin typing text,
3) Touch anywhere in the field to bring up the monicle selection caret,
4) The monical selection caret is shown and I can move the monical/caret around the screen,
5) Un-touch the screen,
6) ERROR - The monicle and the selection caret don't respond to user touch input and the app/OS hang for anywhere from 5 to 15 seconds,
7) The standard "Select | Select All | ..." context pop-up window is shown, after that the app/system are responsive again.
Regarding the ERROR at step 6) above: Clicking Home does nothing, turning on/off with top-button does nothing, force shutdown responds only after the monicle/caret selector un-hangs.
Once this has happened in a given text field/text area, it doesn't happen again on a subsequent text selection touch event... UNLESS I sleep the device, wake the device on the same app/field and try to select again... then it hangs again.
To note, while it's hanging the loading-spinner is displayed in the title bar next to the AT&T 3G/Wifi Antenna icons, suggesting something in the background is doing a network search that's locking then entire foreground process.
I've attempted to:
1) hard reset the device,
2) restore from a backup of 5.1 (doesn't have the aforementioned problem) and reinstall the 5.1.1 update (has the problem)
3) swear at it and curse Steve Job's mock-turtleneck for allowing such a peice of **** bug to exist (even if it's not his fault ex post homine)
Any further help would be great... I may end up downgrading to 5.1 just to not have to deal with this perpetual headache.
Thanks,
Etienne

I'm having the same issue. Phone started to degrade after update to 5.1.1 I have restarted, reset and restored from backup. I haven't tried to restore as new, as I'm not sure what the impact will be in my need to reset my corporate exchange e-mail, etc.
I see from many posts on other boards this is not isolated and is impacting many users. I'm using verizon as a the cell carrier.
My phone is warm and eating battery at a rate of 10% per half an hour in standby mode. No new apps or anything else of that nature.

Standard SAP functionality to send e-mail Text on PO Output?

Hi,
I have a new requirement to send E-mail body along with the PO as an attachment to our vendors.
We are using '5' as tranmission medium to send the PO as e-mail and we call the Smart Form Interface with the Sender and Receipient information. Is there anything we can use as part of standard functionality to send e-mail text. I tried PO Title and Texts option when we define the output type, but the system doesn't seem to be picking it up.
I also tried to setup '7' as transmission medium, but when i use '7' system accepts 'MA' partner type only, when defining the condition records. But for Vendors we cannot define MA partner type in partner schema, so i am not able to define a MA partner when defining the condition record.
thanks

Hi Srini,
Sorry SDN was not available at the time i wanted to write a reply yesterday.
The way i did this was, we were using call to SMARTFORM function module in the custom print program.
When we call the SMARTFORM function module, if you have to send an e-mail, then usually you would pass the recepient information to the function module. The RECPIENT is a business obect in SAP, which has a method called add note, which is what i used to add the e-mail text. One other thing i did was, i read the e--mail text from the Text object when you define the output. Usually the name of this text object is Application concatenated with Output type (eg.: EFNEU ).
I am including the code, please go through it and let me know if you have any questions.

Safari Services:Mail:Send Selection broken in Tiger

Since upgrading to Tiger, I can no longer email selected text in Safari using the Services:Mail:Send Selection command. Nothing happens.
Not that it should matter, but I'm using the Server version of Tiger.

Yep, all updates are installed.
It works on my two Tiger (client) machines, but not on my server machine.

Text select tool not working properly

When I use the text select tool, it selects columns, not words in a row, which is what I want. It used to work correctly. I am using Acrobat Pro, version 9.0.0.
I tried adding the ALT key, with no good result.

Is it with this specific document o any pdf you work on?
If it was earlier working fine for you, try repairing Acrobat by going to 'Help' menu > Repair Acrobat.
Also make sure you have updated it to the latest patch.

"resolving alias to" message using aliases on 10.6.8 plus slow text-selection behavior

Recently after no particular change to my Mac Pro3,2 running 10.6.8 other than some routine software updates, whenever I open an alias on my desktop to standard folders or files, a message shows up "Resolving alias to" whatever the alias name and there's a 2-3 second delay before the folder/file opens. I've found discussion of this issue in some archived discussions but never found a comfirmed solution described, so I'm raising this again. As in others' encounter with this behavior, the slow opening of aliases happens (1) only in my own user account, not in a guest account I set up for test purposes [I have no other user accounts than these], and (2) only happens the FIRST time I open an alias. Subsequent uses of the alias work normally.
Another strange but possibly related behavior that began at the same time as this alias delay is harder to describe but involves a problem when selecting text using mouse clicks or even highlighting with the mouse for editing. For example, to edit the name of a file or folder on my desktop, I would normally click on the file/folder name, pause a moment and click again: this puts me in edit mode with the current file/folder name highlighted/selected. Now when I attempt this procedure, the second time I click immediately opens the file/folder, as though I had double-clicked rather than clicked+paused+clicked. The only way I can select the name of the file/folder to edit it is to click+long pause (like 3 seconds)+click. Then the text is selected as desired. It's as though the clicks are being recognized (by whatever in the OS recognizes clicks) as much faster than actually made. There is a similar problem in any program I use that permits text editing, whether Word (Office 2011 for Mac), TextEdit, etc. I have to consciously slow down my cursor/click behavior when selecting text. If not, my actions are misinterpreted as double clicks. This text selection behavior also disappears when using a "Guest" user account, only appearing in my own user account. I Using a different mouse has no effect.
Steps taken so far. I've Repaired Disk Permissions and Verified Disk using Disk Utility, have Safe Booted, and have turned off all login items in my user account,and recently installed the 10.6.8 supplemental update, all to no avail. Any suggestions or has anyone had and solved this/these problems?

I think my problem has been that in Sytem Preferences>Mouse, my "Double-Click Speed" was set to the SLOWEST setting. After some experimentation, I now have the that setting two notches from the "Fast" end of the scale. In case it's important, the "Primary mouse button" in my Preferences is set to "Left".
This not only solves the text selection issues described, but also seems to eliminate the strange "resolving alias to" problem.
[For the curious, I have a Logitech Performance MX wireless mouse which can be configured with "Logitech Control Center". But the LCC software doesn't control double-click speed; this setting can only be made in the Mouse System Preference pane.]

Preview's PDF text select ignores columns and misses word spaces

I have a number of scanned pdf newspaper articles that I was attempting to copy the text from. Preview appears to register the existence of columns, as there is a pale blue background between the columns.
However when I use the text select tool, it completely ignores the column - and just selects across all columns. And when I paste the text into my text editor, it's missing all the spaces between the words, and the font size is always huge.
Conversely, Adobe reader in XP has no problem selecting by column, and the pasted text is also an exact replication of the original content. I don't know why Preview performs so badly in this regard? Anyone else experience any issues with pdf text select?

Anyone else experience any issues with pdf text select?
Yes, and not just recently.
There is a reason Preview is named, well, preview. It is not an authoring environment and PDFs are not meant to serve in that context either...unless maybe you understand all of inherent the font traps, tricks & tips and how to tune your scanning/OCR software to keep rework to a minimum.
Scanning PDFs is always tricky, and without the occasional heavy metal to bring to the task, it just seems to be that more problematic.
Keep trying, but I'd really suggest to look to other tools at this time.

Keyboard shortcuts for text selection not working in Flash CC

In the new Code Editor in Flash CC running on Mac OS X, most standard Keyboard Shortcuts for traversing through the text work as expected (as the Operating System works globally) but there is one that doesn't and it's I think the most important one.
Hitting "OPTION + SHIFT + [right or left arrow keys]" to select words doesn't work. Hitting "OPTION + [right or left arrow keys]" works as expected, moving the cursor to the next word or break point, but adding shift doesn't do the selection.
I don't understand why this changed since it's a basic OS global shortcuts, and every other program behaves the way it should. Flash CS6 running on the same system behaves fine, but Flash CC doesn't. If you have ever written code, you know that any second that a programmers hand doesn't have to leave the keyboard to search for the mouse is invaluable, and this has forced me to stop using Flash CC and use Flash CS6 to edit my Action Script classes becuase it's unusable otherwise.
These shortcuts are also not listed in the keyboard shortcuts for the program, so I can't change the default behavior. Does anybody know if there's a way to set it back to the way it was before, or just disable special text shortcuts so that selecting text behaves like any other application in the operating system?

Flash CC
Mac OSX 10.8.5

Amy~ Yep the lasso tool was what I verified with another user. 'L' seems to be bound indefinitely to loop through different types of lasso tools and it was annoying them because they just wanted L to be the regular freehand lasso. I removed 'L' from being an option on the polygon lasso and even set it explicitly to SHIFT+L as well as set the lasso tool to a completely different keyboard combo. 'L' still cycled through lassos haha. It needs some fixes.
fertolg~ At least you have a workaround for now. I'd go nuts if I couldn't use keyboard text selection writing code, oy! You're welcome and if you're all set please mark correct so we can filter unanswered. Good luck!

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?

Text selection problem in linked containers

Hi,
I get a strange behavior on the selection of text in a textFlow with several linked containers (from the latest SVN version it seems).
The problem occurs on the following case: http://lafabrick.com/labz/tlfTest/ (source code enabled)
If I select some text in container D to A (or vice versa): display of text selection is correct.
The problems are:
- If I select some text in the containers B or C, and that I move the selection to the right or left: the container is moving ...
- If I select some text in the containers B or C, and that I move the selection to the up or down: the display of the selection is not normal (I have a "blinking selection")
TLF version : 502 (715519)
Regards
fabien

Hi Richard,
Would you like to said that this fixe is not present on the SVN (/trunk) ?
In this case it's of course a bad news for me: my app can't takes all benefits of TLF for now (and for MAX...).
But a good news for all ! It means that TLF is perhaps soon to release !
Thanks a lot.
Fabien

KdeGraphics-Okular - How to change the color of Text Selection tool

Hello All
I'm trying to know how to change/fix the color of the Text Selection Tool (Ctrl + 4). Because when I highlight the text, it's only one color (Dark Blue) that make me could not read clear.
---- My OS Configuration
OS : Arch
DE: LXDE
WM: OpenBox

The highlight color is determined by the system-wide color scheme that you're using. There's no way to change it only for okular.

Mail text appears in preview only (Mac Mail)

Suddenly, this: Mail text does appear (first few lines) previewed in the Inbox, but when I click on it, and the actual mail opens, it has no text. However, I can display the text if I click "Reply." I use Mac.com
mail. Any thoughts, please? - robert

When any app is misbehaving, the first step commonly recommended is to force quit it. The following example is for Mail, but works for all:
Force quit Mail — there are 2 ways to do this
1. Double tap Home to open the Recents tray, press & hold any visible icon until they "wiggle" and show the red deletion buttons, then tap that button on the Mail icon, or
2. Press & hold both the Home and the Sleep/Wake buttons until the red slider appears, then release Sleep/Wake. Continue to hold the Home button until the Mail page is replaced by a home screen.
Other steps to take, if needed, are in the Tips & Troubleshooting section of your manual.
