Blinking Text

hi all
Is it possible in oracle Form to blink a text?
Forms 10G R1
Database 11g R2.
Mehwish.

OK, you want the stuff all made without having to do a single effort.
So here it is:
In the When-New-Form-Instance, you create a timer:
Declare
     timer_id timer ;
Begin
     timer_id := Create_Timer( 'BLINK', 1000, REPEAT ) ;
End;In the When-Timer-Expired:
If Get_Item_Property( 'BL.TI', FOREGROUND_COLOR )
      != Get_Item_Property( 'BL.TI', BACKGROUND_COLOR ) Then
      Set_Item_Property( 'BL.TI', FOREGROUND_COLOR, Get_Item_Property( 'BL.TI', BACKGROUND_COLOR ) ) ;
Else
      Set_Item_Property( 'BL.TI', FOREGROUND_COLOR, 'r0g0b0' ) ;
End if ;Francois

Removing Blinking Text from video footage

Hi Helpers:
I recently recorded a service at my church where we have three mounted cameras. One of the cameras was malfunctioning and the word "Backup" is blinking in the top 1/3 of the frame for the entire service. As luck would have it the malfunctioning camera is the only one that can capture faces as people enter during the mass procession.
I knew this was happening while recording but couldn't remedy the situation at that time. I was able to frame most lf my shots so that the vital subject of the angle is below the blinking text in case I need to crop the video (which unfortunately will result in a blurry picture from that camera).
Is anyone aware of a way that I can use Premiere (CS4) to somehow remove the blinking text or perhaps other options aside from cropping?
It is a 50/50 blink cycle (12 frames on and 12 frames off) so there are a lot of frames that are good if there is some way to normalize the picture. There are so many cool tools and features in PS and Premiere that I want to think there is something that can help me.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or assistance you have !!
Ned

Ned,
Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, if the camera has "burned in" the "backup" message, the best solution would be to use the Fixed Effects>Motion>Scale, and probably Motion>Position to effectively crop out that message, by the Frame Size. Just Scale up to the minimum to get that message off-screen (Positioning if necessary), and living with a slight bit of quality degradation. Scale to the minimum to get that message off-screen.
Now, depending on the background, surrounding the message, you might be able to use AfterEffects, and its Clone Tool, to clone some of that background, over the message, but this will require a bit of work, especially if there is much camera movement.
Good luck,
Hunt

Blink Text Item

Hello
I am still not able to solve this blinking text item for my forms.
I once again request anyone who can give me the sample code.
I have a text item say mv_msg. Initially there is a welcome message in the text item
say with red font.
Now when I move the mouse this text should change with different message with
different color say by moving the mouse over the form.
Also this should be done without using any timer .
Please suggest.Thanks in advance.

I'm found it from metalink
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:6497061713474016232::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,112864.1,1,1,1,helvetica
Solution Description
There is no default functionality in forms that allows you to do this. You can
simulate a blinking font by creating and using a timer within your form:
1) Create the timer in the WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger:
DECLARE
sec_timer TIMER;
one_sec NUMBER(7):=1000;
BEGIN
:global.blob := 1;
sec_timer:= CREATE_TIMER('alarm',one_sec,REPEAT);
END;
2) Create a WHEN-TIMER-EXPIRED trigger:
BEGIN
if :global.blob =1 then
set_item_property('text_item4',background_color, 'r400g0b0');
:global.blob:=2;
elsif :global.blob = 2 then
set_item_property('text_item4',background_color, 'r999g999b999');
:global.blob:=1;
end if;
END;
The above will cause the font to "blink" every second.

Why do all the webpages show a blinking text line like you would find on Word? I can't use keyboard keys to scroll the page because of this.

The web pages look like text boxes with a blinking line appearing near where I click on the page.

Firefox is creating a blinking text cursor when I click on text in a webpage. How do I make it stop?

This problem began a few days ago, apropos of nothing, and has carried over from 8 to 9. While it hasn't compromised Firefox in any way that I can see, it's distracting.

You may have switched on caret browsing.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/accessibility.browsewithcaret
You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.
*Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Accessibility: [ ] "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages"

Firefox shows a blinking "edit" cursor in the body of all websites when I click.

Clicking a button within a webpage puts a blinking text cursor in the body of the site, as if editing a Word document. It's not causing any other problems besides being really annoying and distracting, but it only just started today. I've tried restarting Firefox with add-ons disabled, as well as reinstalling Firefox clean.

1. try pressing F7
2. system restore

How can I make the text larger in this flashing box from Old Toad?

I'm trying to use flashing text here: http://web.me.com/phelpssculpture/Site/hands_on.html
which I copied from OldToad's site here:http://web.me.com/toad.hall/Demo_1/Miscitems.html
I can't figure out how to make the text larger.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, David

At the end of the code, you can find
document.write('You can add Blinking Text!');
insert a "size" attribute to "font" tag (eg. size="10")
document.write('You can add Blinking Text!');

Text & speed

hi there...
just 2 stupid questions
1.- i apply an animated mask to dynamic textfield but i have
to load the text for every keyframe to show it and it looks like a
blinking text, any idea to load the text only once?
2.- i apply animated masks to movies that loads in the main
movie, but when the movie loads (animated mask) the speed of the
movie and the main movie is pretty slow, then when the shape tween
ends the speed is ok. how can i do to correct this?

hey, be cool...
i just don't understand...
could u explain it again more clearly?
"Okay, you shouldn't need to copy that action script on each
of those keyframes."
(i understand this)
"instead, your main timeline should be just 1 frame with your
actions, and layers. Have the action script control other
movieclips inside. Just have the text load into another movieclip,
and don't play that MC until the external files are loaded."
(i understand this, but i don't understand what to do in
flash)

JTextField text highlight

Hello,
I have a JDialog with a bunch of JTextFields in it. I want the text in the JTextField to be highlighted (for a full replace on the next key-stroke) on focusGained / mouseClicked.
I have added focus & mouse listeners to the textFields and in those methods I do a selectAll. I also set the textField's caretSelectionVisible to true. But, all I see is a blink - text getting selected and getting deselected instantaneously.
I need a way to select the whole text when the user clicks on a textField for the first time. The same thing should work for tabbing too. i.e. when the user starts editing values in any textField, all the text present at the start should be selected.
Inside the different mouseEvent methods (mouseClicked, pressed, released...), if I do a getSelectedText on the textField to check for selection before selectingAll, I get a null.
I appreciate the time u have taken so far and an advance thanks for any suggestion / reply.
thanks,
vijay

seems a little complicated. The answer has you setting up a listenener and selecting all the text when the field gets the focus.

Error message string : cant put and and HTML Blink tag

Hi All,
I have experienced a strange problem in the error message string .When i put <abc>.txt as a error message in my validation routine it just truncates abc .
I think HTMLDB understands it as a HTML tag .
Any idea how to put open and close angle ?
And one more question do i put HTML blink tag inside error message ? Its not working ....
Cheers,
ROSY

Try using & lt ; and & gt ; instead (without the spaces inbetween the characters).
What do you mean by "not working" for the blink question? I'd also suggest that it "not working" is a good thing...blinking text on a website usually looks horrible ;)

Please don't blinking hate me!

Hello,
I've been asked to add one line of blinking text (I know - I know !) but can't seem to get the Dreamweaver option to BLINK the text to work.
Any ideas how to create blinking text easily for one of line of existing CSS styled text.
Thanks

The thinking is that if the browser sets the blink rate then the manufacturer of the browser could be held responsible. But if the web site owner/developer does this effect via javascript then they are legally responsible should there be an incident.
A court case on this issue would make fascinating reading.
My reading online suggests that screen refresh rates (CRT monitors I assume) are a far bigger issue than the refresh rate of blinking text.
And, yes there is medical proof of this
No doubt you are correct.
However, everything I've seen online is anecdotal.
just as there is now always warnings of flash photography in tv news articles, or similar effects in video games. The legal notices and warnings are not required for such possibilities if there is no proof.
I would expect high profile warnings on every website if PSE and blinking text was a widespread, major issue in the community.
I'm not saying that it's not an issue at all. Just that I've never personally heard, or read, of blinking text triggering epilepsy.
Of course, the easiest way out is to avoid blinking text altogether

Please help with choosing the right text component

Hello,
In my applet, I need a single-line text component with the following capabilities:
1: Support for bold font (entire text,not just part of it)
2: Support for underlined text (entire text,not just part of it)
3: Support for blinking text
4: Ability to put caret anywhere within the text field with mouse
5: Support for field validation
6: Ability to handle various key events and modify the text and/or move around caret position accordingly.
Now, I know there are at least 4 different text components: JTextField, JTextArea, JEditorPane, JTextPane. Which one of these is most suitable for the above features? Is it possible to use JTextField to support all of the above?

Here is a link to the Java Swing tutorial which discusses the text components.
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/text.html
I think you need to use a JEditorPane or a JTextPane (although I'm not sure any of the components support blinking text). A demo program shows some of the capabilities of these components:
