Can't edit or select items on tab control

I have no idea what happened... was programming my app and now i can't select, edit or move anything that is placed with-in the tab control area of the program, I can't even select the tab control from the front panel. Any ideas? i really dont want to have and start all over again!!!

See if you acidentally locked it (see image)?
Maybe you placed a huge transpared decoration over it all?
Is the VI in edit mode or run mode? (ctrl+m to toggle)
Attach the VI and we can check for some other possibilities.

Can't delete multiple selected items in List or Library

I am experiencing quirky behavior when attempting to delete multiple selected items from a library or list. I select a few items via check box for each item I would like to delete. Then I click the delete button in the ribbon, and all I get is "Deleting...",
but no page refresh and the items are not deleted. However if I access the same list or library via the App server and select a few items, then hit delete, the page refreshes and the items are deleted.
So I consulted the Logs and compared the Web Server vs App Server, and the there is a lot of cryptic entries. The few lines that stands out most to me is the App server is:
ConnectionString: 'Data Source=database;Initial Catalog=Content;Integrated Security=True;Enlist=False;Asynchronous Processing=False;Connect Timeout=15'
ConnectionState: Closed ConnectionTimeout: 15
In fireItemEvent(), for list Building Locations, and item: 1
In fireSyncItemEvent(), calling ExecuteItemEventReceivers()
Calling ExecuteItemEventReceivers() for list 0f773535-3b22-4c29-97f1-fd2b70b50dd3 on item 1
Entering monitored scope (Event Receiver (Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c, Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.PublishingWebEventReceiver))
Releasing SPRequest with allocation Id {FE9A45A8-C042-4223-8FCC-4BD873C93885}
PublishingWebEventReceiver:ItemDeleting: item
These calls are not in the web server log.
The list I was doing the delete action on was "Building Locations". We are using claims based authentication
Thanks for any insight or thoughts.

I confirmed that there is no rewrite tags in either web config (app or web).
I did download fiddler, and when I try and delete on the web front end I get:
It tries to access the URL https://mysite/_layouts/_vti_bin/client.svc/processQuery
Then it sends me here since I have been denied
<html><head><title>Object moved</title></head><body>
<h2>Object moved to <a href="https://mysite/_layouts/AccessDenied.aspx">here</a>.</h2>
</body></html>
The app server goes to
http://mysite/_layouts/_vti_bin/client.svc/processQuery doesn't get denied and deletes the items.

Created text, now can't edit or select it???

I have created text using the typwriter tool, I selected it then copied and pasted it but now I cant select or edit either the original one or the copy. I find acrobat one of the most frustrating softwares I have ever used for simple task as editing text.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Many thanks
Nick

Hi all,
Many thanks for your replies, I did manage to work round it as LoriAUC sugested, I just found it very difficult to do what seems like a simple task, I was completing a form that I had recieved and one of the fields wouldn't let me put text in it correctly hence I used the typwriter tool. But sorted it now. I get that Bill2VT, it seems to be very limited in its editing capablities text wise, and I will have a look at the tutorials thanks Alec.
Again, thanks for all your help.

Tree control - How to get the full path of selected Item in tree control

I am Flex newbie. When the user clicks the particular item in
the tree control I just wanted to get it name along with it's full
parent.
Here is my XML
var dirXML:XML=<root basename="/home/tcegrid">
<Directories>
<Dir Name=".autosave" />
<Dir Name=".emacs.d" />
<Dir Name="AnsysDistributed">
<Dir Name="opt"/>
<Dir Name="root" />
</Dir>
<Dir Name="postgres"/>
<Dir Name="FineTurbo"/>
<Directories>
</root>
The above XML is data provider for Tree control. When the
user clicks the Dir Name called opt. I wanted it absolute path in
XML. say Directories.Dir.Dir.@Name is opt
Can any one tell me how to get this?

How can I edit text labels in a numeric display?

I have this numeric display, type U16, that displays specific messages, for example 'PASS' when the input is 1. I need to add another message.
I added a placeholder, for input = 3 (verified by the digital display) for the new message by rightclicking/'Add After' but I'm not able to add the new message. I can't edit the text (can't select it) for the existing messages either so I know I'm on the wrong track.
The G programming reference for LV 5.1 (page 9-17) says to use the labeling tool so I tried the 'Edit Text' tool on the tools palette. Is there another labeling tool? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff Bledsoe

Jeff,
It sounds to me as if your U16 ring control is, or is linked to, a typdef (Type Definition), which LabVIEW programmers can employ to impose sharp constraints on the way a control looks or behaves. This would explain why you can't edit the text items, or add one. The bit about adding an item for '3' is confusing, but maybe it has to do with the ring being set to allow undefined values.
I can't recall how to manage these things under LabVIEW 5.1, but in 7.x, I would right-click on the control and see if "Open Type Def" was one of my options; if so, this diagnosis is correct, and you can make your changes only be editing the actual type def. The changes would then automatically be applied to any other control or indicator that is linked to the same type def, which is a very powerful programming technique.
Your best move might be to read up on Type Definitions in your LabVIEW User Manual, or in Application Note 159, and then proceed.
Hope this helps,
John

Cant find item document tab on product catalog

hi,
I have created a product catalog but while adding products to the catalog area i have chosen Edit->Product hierarchy->......,(i.e.,products added directly from the product master) instead of adding the products to the catalog area manually,but the problem is on the item data level the item document tab is missing,which is normally present when the products are added manually,
so my question is can we still make the item document tab available by adding the products to the product catalog area from the product master directly.
and if you follow this process even we cannot deactivate the product.
regards
chandu

Hi
You cannot see the item document tab because the 'Folder template' is missing for items in customizing for 'automatic type' catalog. You can create your own types and customize it as per your needs.

Can Not Edit JSP Page

Running SJSC2.1 on XP
I have a project which uses tables and DB
I can not edit the JSP page (the tab for the Page1.jsp page has an asterisk) after the name.
The IDE can not edit the page either, I add a table column for display and the design mode shows the added column but the JSP page does not show the new column, nor does the new column show when the app is deployed..
I can edit the file with wordpad outside of the IDE
What gives???
Thanks

Actually, I did say that I am able to edit the file and save it in WordPad..
Outside of the IDE..
Thanks anyway...
I have restarted the IDE, Rebooted the system (which reboots the app server) made sure there are no "hanging" "app module" entries in the domain.xml file...
Anybody know why the "*" is shown with the filename on the SJSC Design tab..
There was also a series of very small "red somethings" to the upper left of the file name in the Files> listing
The red somethings looked like:
| | | |
| o |
I have no idea what this red something is.. I thought if might say something but even with a magnifying glass it is unreadable, if in fact the somethings is text
Thanks
any help would be appreciated...

Horizontal tabs when they are on the left side of tab control

I have a tab control for a touch screen where I was going to use buttons along the left side to change tabs, and hide the tabs. However, I realized I can put the tabs on the left side of the tab control and remove my buttons all together. Only issue is, I would like them (along with their font) to be horizontal, not vertical as they are shown in my screenshot. Is there a way to change this?

It's a really poor design aspect of tab controls that the text is sideways when the tabs are on the left or right side.
I've looked into it and found no way to re-orient the text.
However you can put images on the tabs instead of text, and the images can be of text (correctly oriented of course).
The attached code can be used to generate such a tab control.

You can create a property node of a tab control to give you references to all of the pages (a 1-D array). From there, you can create a property node on a particular reference and set the visibility of that page.

The 'selected items' color randomly changes and I can't figure out why.

Hi everybody, I recently upgraded to Firefox 13, which appears to be the most stable browser version so far and I really like it. I have loved Firefox very much, having used it since somewhere between versions 2 and 3.
After upgrading to version 13 I noticed something that annoys me quite a bit. This may have been present before but I can't remember and I did not notice until now.
On my computer (Windows 7 x64 Ultimate) I have set the color of the 'selected items' (specifically text) to be lime green text on a slightly off black background. I chose this color scheme because it blends very well with Firefox itself (I have the NASA night launch theme), Windows Explorer, and many web pages that I have changed to a dark theme (using the Stylish browser extension). This color scheme has excellent contrast in areas with black text on a light background, as well as light text on a dark background. It has served me well.
After upgrading to Firefox 13 I have noticed that if the web page is dark with light text, the 'selected items' color changes to lime green text on a light grey background. (Less frequently, it changes instead to off-black text on a lime green background). I have not been able to isolate the threshold where this change occurs (meaning how dark the website background needs to be /how light the text needs to be for this to happen) nor have I found a solution.
This problem sometimes extends even to sites that have dark text on a light background: when tabs are switched, with no input fields clicked and the address bar is not clicked. This very page (Firefox support) is apparently vulnerable as well.
This problem only happens on rendered web pages. Firefox's menus, buttons and toolbars, as well as all other programs and Windows itself, are unaffected.
I want the 'selected items' to remain as I have set it, and not deviate regardless of the apparent contrast or color scheme of the web page being displayed.
[Edit #1]: Interestingly, as I was copying the information from about:support I noticed that it is affected as well.
Any suggestions? Thanks so much, and I am sorry for the long-winded description. tl;dr look at the pictures.

It is always best to avoid making changes to the selected text colors.<br />
Firefox uses an algorithm to check if the contrast is sufficient and will swap text and background colors if that test fails.<br />
