AW keyboard focus after Flash interaction
Hi all and happy new year!
I am using AW7.02, Windows XP, Flash v8 (loaded using
ActiveX).
I have the following setup:
In a pageturner made in AW I have an interaction icon placed
inside a
Framework. On the interaction icon I have several perpetual
buttons, one in
particular to flip to the next page (next icon on framework).
This button
interaction has RightArrow and PageDown keys assigned to it.
So, while
running, if I hit right arrow or page down I will flip to
next page. This
works fine.
I also load and display Flash on the pages using ActiveX
(Shockwave Flash
Object). The Flash are animations, so the user can click on
Flash
controllers to play/pause etc.
The problem:
So, user can flip to next page with keyboard just fine, as
long as the user
does not hit anything in the Flash ActiveX first. So for
example, if the
user pauses the movie clicking the pause button in the Flash
ActiveX and
then hit the right arrow key, then nothing happens. (I want
page to be
turned). The user must first hit somewhere outside the Flash
ActiveX in the
AW window before the keyboard triggers the buttons again.
Attempts:
All my attempts have only been in author mode and not
packaged mode.
I've done some attempts sending event from Flash after button
in Flash has
been pressed. This is picked up by AW (confirmed with trace)
and then I've
tried to:
- set focus to interaction icon that holds the button using
SetKeyboardFocus(InteractionIconID). Did not work.
- set window focus using baActivateWindow(baWinHandle) (from
Buddy API). Did
not work, and as far as I could see the active window
remained the same (=
AW window) during Flash interaction, so probably not so
strange it didn't
work.
So, does anyone have any idea on how I can fix the focus
problem? The only
workaround that I am left with right now is to set up the
same keyboard
interaction in the Flash as in the AW and send this info back
to AW as
events. This is not ideal due to update issues and unclear
codestructure.

Hi again!
Just a little update.
I tried to package, but that didn't help.
So I went for the the workaround where I pick up keyboard
pressing in Flash
and send this info back with fscommand:
FSCommand("keypress", Key.getCode());
I pick up the event in AW and filter it with keypress as
#command. I then
get the key code from the #arg list and have a property list
where I link
the key code with the keyname used in AW. I then use the
KeyPress function
as suggested by Erik. As a result, any updates I make to what
the different
keys do needs only be done in AW, so I guess it isn't too
bad.
Thanks for help and tips!

Safari keyboard focus after a search
I like using the keyboard as often as I can. With Chrome, I can hit the Tab key after searching from the search/URL bar. This moves the keyboard focus to the web page, which causes an arrow to appear in front of the first search result. With up/down keys and Enter, you can then go to any of the search results.
What is the proper hotkey in Safari to move the keyboard focus from the search bar to the webpage?
(Using Safari 7 on OS X)I think I found out why this didn't work -- in System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts, I've got the "Full Keyboard Access" option set to "All Controls"...

JComboBox popup list remains open after losing keyboard focus
Hi,
I have noticed a strange JComboBox behavior. When you click on the drop down arrow to show the popup list, and then press the Tab key, the keyboard focus moves to the next focusable component, but the popup list remains visible.
I have included a program that demonstrates the behavior. Run the program, click the drop down arrow, then press the Tab key. The cursor will move into the JTextField but the combo box's popup list is still visible.
Does anyone know how I can change this???
Thanks for any help or ideas.

}ran your code on 1.5.0_3, observed problem as stated.
even though the cursor is merrily blinking in the textfield, you have to click into
the textfield to dispose the dropdown
ran your code on 1.4.2_08, no problems at all - tabbing into textfield immediately
disposed the dropdown
another example of 'usual' behaviour (involving focus) breaking between 1.4 and 1.5
the problem is that any workaround now, may itself be broken in future versions -
Dir11 is loosing keyboard focus!
I have a kiosk application running WITHOUT a mouse. All
inputs is from the keyboard. The app is autostarting when Windows
starts.
After playing a Flash animation and a mpeg2 video (Mpeg adv
xtra) the application looses keyboard focus, wich result in Windows
warning sound when you press a key and the key is not sent to the
application.
The problem is solved if you click with a mouse, but there is
no mouse as I mentioned. The problem is NOT solved by <alt>
<tab>-switching forth and back.
I know this is an old MX2004 bug, and the work around then
was to set the document type to "tool". But this is not helping in
Dir11.
Anyone hwo has a work around?
Where to report bugs now a days? Does Adobe care at all?
(It's not easy to even find the Director support pages!)Hi,
maybe you can use one of the Xtras than can simulate a
mouseclick?

On a page like http://www.ori.uzh.ch/links.html, clicking a link opens a new tab, and after closing that tab, you can move to the next link with the tabulator key. On that site, it still works with Firefox 5. I also worked on our project site (password secured, sorry) with Firefox up to 3.6.18. But now, if I open a link with the mouse, close that tab again and press the tab key, the focus just goes to the first clickable button, as if I had not clicked any button previously. If I open a link by tab key and "enter", the keyboard focus is preserved on that button. But there are many many buttons on our pages, and they reload frequently.
BTW I adjusted the system preferences, so that the keyboard focus moves between all controls. (see http://www.tipstrs.com/tip/1505/Tab-key-to-select-form-elements-in-Firefox-on-the-Mac). But I don't think the problem is related to that.I found out that our buttons are no links, but input tags, type="submit". I'll discuss the problem with our programmer.

Ok, i have a JTextField which is initially disabled. A JPanel draws some stuff and receives keyboard input. When i enable the textfield, type some stuff, then press Esc (which disables it), i cant get the keyboard focus back on the JPanel. Here is an example:
(you can move the red circle before you enable the textfield, after you disable it, you cant move it anymore).

I have been experiencing several issues with my MacBook Pro Retina mid 2012. My MBPR is scheduled to go into the depot. However, I am wondering if anyone may be able to shed light on a few issues as this is the third "official" time my MBPR is going back for service ("one depot" trip; "one authorized" dealer; several in-store visits).
My Bluetooth is stating that the Bluetooth Chipset is Unknown (0). I also have had Bluetooth Preferences mysteriously change on me. In addition, while Bluetooth is off there are two serial modems turning on. I have turned them off, but they continue to pop up.
In addition, when I log in, my MBPR is not remembering me and my login name is not appearing on the slate-gray screen. The name and password are blank and the following message appears in the lower left hand corner. "login window authentication login window Name edit text has keyboard focus." As a side note, I am the only user. The login issue is a recent occurrence as we just totally wiped it again via a Command + R, and I don't believe I have an accessibility setting set to anything that would cause this, but wanted to check.
Should I be concerned here? Has anyone else had issues like this? I don't want to worry if I don't have to. I have had so many issues over the course of nine months. 5-6 wipes. Airport card replaced and I am about to pull my hair out if my MBPR doesn't come back worldly like clock work this time. I just can't send my days trying to get a $2300 product to work for me any longer. No idea what is wrong with it, but it is driving me insane. Cross your fingers for me and any guidance you have or thoughts would be welcomed. Thank you. EMMA few more issues...

There are a ton of other warnings. Before I go through this again, can someone tell me if this is normal (all of it -- above too); or if these are symptoms is a keystroke logger or hardware issues?
I ask because originally, when my computer went in for diagnostics (more than once), Apple stated the hardware was fine (other than Airport Card -- finally). However, if I've done 5-6 total wipes; created new users; do not have sharing set-up; have not played around in Terminal; and am up-to-date with versions -- and various issues KEEP COMING BACK -- I am left wondering if a keystroke logger would be possible here?!? I thought maybe a faulty logic board, but why would diagnostics be okay, then? Not trying to be hyperbole, just desperate.
Please help me rule keystroke logger out or at least, tell me so I know, so I can take appropriate action. If you think it could be the logic board with symptoms above, that would be a great too.
All I want to do is use the computer as intended, but I can't seem to get a real answer, so after nine months -- I am turning to the communities to see if anyone -- anyone at all -- can help. The last thing I can do is have the MBPR come back from the depot and the same thing occur. Any guidance or advice would be so gratefully appreciated. -
Canon 6D will not focus or flash in "Live View" mode.
My Canon 6D will not focus or flash in "Live View" mode. I have a canon 430ex II and a E-ttl flash connected with a sync cord for E-ttl function. The camera does simulate shutter action, but no photo is taken. How can I over-come this problem.
Once in a while, after trying to take several photos it will start working, but usually not.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi Shadowcat!
Thanks for posting.
It sounds like the AF Method is set to Quick Mode. When the camera is set for Live View Shooting, there are different AF Methods that can be set. In Quick Mode, the camera uses its dedicated AF sensor to focus when you press the shutter button down halfway.
The image on the LCD will be interrupted while the camera tries to focus because the shutter closes and the mirror drops back over the image sensor. This may look as though the camera is taking a picture, but it is not, it is only focusing. No flash is fired during this process either. Continue to hold the shutter button halfway until focus is achieved, at which point the image will return to the LCD. Then you can press the shutter button the rest of the way down to take the picture. The flash will fire and an image will be recorded.

Switching windows in Linux/Firefox loses keyboard focus. Workarounds?
Hi,
I've been stumbling on an issue in which an applet gets into a state where it can receive mouse events but not keyboard events. This state occurs some of the time when switching from a non-modal dialog to the applet.
I've witnessed this behavior on:
Linux (fc8), Firefox 3.0.10, Java plug-in 1.6.0_13, Gnome 2.20.3
Sun Solaris (5.10), Firefox 3.0.8, Java plug-in 1.6.0_12, Sun Java Desktop System or CDE
I can not reproduce this behavior using appletviewer, nor can I reproduce it on the Mac (Opera/Firefox/Safari), nor on Windows (Firefox/IE).
I've crafted some code that shows the behavior:
FocusApplet.java:
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
import java.beans.*;
public class FocusApplet extends JApplet {
JTextArea infoText;
Object activeWindow;
Object focusOwner;
Object permanentFocusOwner;
Applet contains two components.
NORTH: Text field
CENTER: Info text
The info text is updated whenever the following
KeyboardFocusManager properties change:
activeWindow
focusOwner
permanentFocusOwner
public void init(){
JTextField tf = new JTextField("Type here");
infoText = new JTextArea();
infoText.setEditable(false);
infoText.setLineWrap(true);
infoText.setWrapStyleWord(true);
infoText.setBorder(new EtchedBorder());
this.add(infoText, BorderLayout.CENTER);
this.add(tf, BorderLayout.NORTH);
KeyboardFocusManager focusManager =
KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager();
activeWindow=focusManager.getActiveWindow();
permanentFocusOwner=focusManager.getPermanentFocusOwner() ;
focusOwner=focusManager.getFocusOwner() ;
updateText();
focusManager.addPropertyChangeListener(
new PropertyChangeListener() {
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
String prop = e.getPropertyName();
if ("focusOwner".equals(prop)) {
focusOwner = e.getNewValue();
updateText();
} else if ("permanentFocusOwner".equals(prop)) {
permanentFocusOwner = e.getNewValue();
updateText();
} else if ("activeWindow".equals(prop)) {
activeWindow = e.getNewValue();
updateText();
// Create non-modal dialog
JDialog jdl = new JDialog((Frame)null,"Extra dialog",
false/*modal*/);
jdl.setSize (300,550);
jdl.setVisible(true);
public void updateText() {
infoText.setText("Active window: "+getName(activeWindow)+
"\nFocus owner: "+getName(focusOwner)+
"\nPermanent focus owner: "+getName(permanentFocusOwner));
public String getName(Object obj) {
return (obj==null) ? "null" : obj.getClass().getName();
}Applet HTML:
<applet code="FocusApplet.class" width="400" height="400"></applet>When I run this applet, I can click on the text field ("Type here") and enter text. Then, I switch between the empty dialog box and the applet using the window manager. (I.e., clicking on the dialog, then clicking on the applet.) Sometimes I see the following Keyboard Focus settings when I bring the applet to the front:
Active window: sun.plugin.viewer.frame.XNetscapeEmbeddedFrame
Focus owner: javax.swing.JTextField
Permanent focus owner: javax.swing.JTextField
In this case, clicking on the text field will allows the user to edit text. Good! However, 10%-50% of the time I get the following settings after I bring the applet to the front:
Active window: null
Focus owner: null
Permanent focus owner: javax.swing.JTextField
In this case, I can click on the applet, and I can highlight text in the text field, but I can not edit the text. (No carat appears. Bad!) Since there is no keyboard focus owner, the applet appears non-responsive.
I have a few questions:
1. Is this a Java plug-in bug? A Firefox bug? Who do I file a bug with, assuming there's not something I'm missing?
2. Can anyone suggest a workaround?
Thanks,
-David-I noticed the problem too. Is there any fix or workaround? Friends using Windows say that all is ok.

I've added a Flash interaction to one frame. It seems that
once clicked on the screen, it goes on to the next frame. Is there
a way to stop the usual navigation (click to continue) and depend
on the bottom navigation only for that specific frame?
thanks,Try adding a Captivate click box and have it pause the slide
AFTER your Flash interaction on the timeline.
If you configure the click box's On success property to "No
action" then the slide should essentially become disabled at that
point and the user must use the playbar to continue. -
Okay, I've been looking around for quite some time and cannot find a solution for my annoying problem: I cannot keep the 'Tab to move keyboard focus between: All controls' to stick. I am able to change the keyboard setting so that the Tab key changes keyboard focus through settings -> keyboard -> keyboard shortcuts -> full keyboard access and the simple control+F7 until I log out, reboot or power cycle.
I have reset all of my keyboard settings to default and I have gone so far as to create a new user with admin priviledges but the problem persists. Any ideas?
I appreciate any input you may have!More info in case anyone is reading (I feel as though this is a one person conversation).
I backed my MBP up and reinstalled Lion and still have the problem after a restore. I did the reboot -> command-R trick and reset priviledges but to no avail and I am beginning to think this is a bug.
The last thing I will add is under Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts, Full Keyboard Access is granted to All controls and does not reset when I reboot and am unable to change keyboard focus with tab. -
System dead after flashing BIOS
I posted the note about my system hanging in the post screen for a few minutes before windows kicks in. It was in relation to hooking up a USB keyboard. Anyway a simple problem turned into a nightmare. After doing and checking some of the things some of the guys recomended, I decided to check my version of BIOS through live update. Low and behold a newer version 1.9 was availible, I had 1.5.
The new version also had some USB fixes including....Great just what I was looking for. Well, everything went fine until it was time to reboot....then my system never came back. The screen was blank and black. I can't even get the recovery floppy to work? Any suggestions as it was late last night and Im at work now. Is my BIOS chip fubar? Is it time to replace this motherboard already?
Mike DykasWell gentlemen, I had to laugh when I read the troubleshooting sticky. It seems the windows booting delay problem with the saitek usb keyboard hooked up was caused by USB support being enabled instead of disabled. I will always read the sticky's first from now on. Sooooo !
Here I am with this beautiful looking paper weight with lights !
After flashing BIOS from live update ( I know now ) my system never came back to me. I reset CMOS with the button, and I also removed the battery and put it back in. No help ! I made the Bios recovery floppy, for the award bios recovery, but when I power up the floppy never kicks in . I 'll try and pick up a new CMOS battery tomorrow. Interesting though that the D bracket lights to " initializing Video Interface " and there she stays. I'm wondering now If I should just get me a new bios chip. Which to me would be the easiest way to go. I keep my board intact and everything stays put. No loading all the software all over again. I'm not without, I have my Vaio, but pczilla was my baby........ya know the feeling right. I don't know of any other course to take unless somebody out there has a better idea, I'm all ears ............

Z68A-GD80(G3) Can no longer read external hd dock after flashing beta bios
I flashed E7672IMS.J31 Beta Bios because I was on a very old bios that was not compatible with my GTX 970 card I just bought. Flashing the bios fixed my 970 compatibility but in the process made it so my 2 external hd docks no longer worked (at this time on windows 7). self powered usb harddrives still worked though. At this time my sata mode was IDE which I thought might have had to do with it since it doesnt have hotswap. I assumed it was an issue with some drivers I installed after flashing the beta bios and I was due for upgrading/reformatting anyways so I enabled AHCI and hot swap then did a clean install of windows 8.1. The external hard drives still don't read!! I've used multiple different hard drives and different usb ports including usb 2.0. The docks are usb 3.0 and I use them daily to edit photos from my work. Any ideas of things I could try?
My pc:
intel 2500k
16gb Corsair vengeance ram
MSI 970 GTX GPU
Corsair 750w power supply
Z68A-GD80(G3) motherboard
E7672IMS.J31 Beta BiosCould the issue be that I didn't download the Intel Management Driver after installing the beta bios I flashed? Maybe I could try that first, which one from this list do I use with my pc setup?
thanks for the help!

Try going back to E7672IMS.J20 OFFICIAL. Use the recommended flashing method with provided archive only: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=163870.msg1215101#msg1215101 -
MSI 770T-C45 won't post after flashing BIOS with M-FLASH
After flashing AMIBIOS 8.3 to v8.7 with M-FLASH via USB stick I can't get any post.
Had I read this forum before I wouldn't have done it, but here I am.
Fan starts, LEDs are off, no beeps at all, power button does nothing. Black screen.
After force flashing (yes, I am THAT stupid) the prompt said it would reboot in 5 seconds and after that nothing.
Here's my setup:
Board: MSI 770T-C45
Original Bios: v8.3
Flashed Bios: v8.7 (flashed with M-FLASH)
VGA: EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
PSU: Enermax FMAII EG465AX-VE 460W
CPU: AMD Phenom x4 9650
MEM: Kingston DDR2-667 4x2GB KVR667D2N5/2G
HDD: SAMSUNG 840 SSD 250GB
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64bit
I tried every CMOS clearing method found in previous posts and threads (including this and this.)
1. Unplugged from power, waited 5 minutes, removed the battery (5mins), changed jumper position (5min), switched it back (5min), plugged it in (5min) and powered up with and without USB stick in the hub next to network hub with old BIOS (v8.3) inside. Pressed CTRL+HOME, anything, not a single message or beep or LED flashing.
Also I removed all RAMs and kept one in the first socket. Nothing.
I really don't know what to do next. What seems to differ from other users is LEDs non working, what does that mean?The problem here is that after update 8.6 the m-flash module was updated, so yes your mobo is a brick, but there is still hope for it. I had the same situation a few days ago with the exact same model and was able to recover it by following the steps on listed on the below posts:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=133578.0
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=129989.0
It may seem complicated at first, but trust me its not at all.
Anyways you probably already have another mobo, send it for RMA or used it as frisbee, but it may come handy for some other doing the same noob flashing as we did

We have Topaz BSB signature pads not recognized in virtual environment
I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem. Windows 7 recognizes the device. Device lights up, captures the signature and puts it on the document. If you change the signature pad, the new one won't work. However, if you log in as another use
