Cancel or remove tab stops in Designer

Hi,
I have created a two page form and set the tab order I want. Some of the fields I still want to be fillable but don't want them to be a tab stop.
How do I past over a fillable field using the tab.
Frank

Frank,
One way is to put a JavaScript in the enter event of the field that shifts focus to the next field. For example, if you have Field1, Field2, and Field3 and you want to skip Field2, then in the enter event of Field2 you would put this code:
xfa.host.setFocus(xfa.resolveNode("Field3"));

How to remove tab stops at one shot after importing a word document

HI everyone,
This is my first post in Framemaker Community as I am moving from RH to FM.
I have an issue with respect to importing word documents to Framemaker.
After I have import a word to doc to FM multiple tab stops are created.
Now, although I remove the tab stops manually once, If I place my mouse in the next line , the tab stops are seen again.
Is there any shortcut wherein I can remove tab stops at one go after I import a word document in Framemaker.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Parag

Find: Text: [ \x08 ]
Change To Text: [ \x20 ]
<*> Document
[ Change All ]
This would change all tabs to ordinary spaces. You can actually just type a tab and space character, but I used the hex notation so you see what you're doing. The space could be any other character(s) you desire, or no characters at all (make sure the To Text: field is empty).
Hex codes?

Can a tab be removed in Adobe Livecycle Designer ES?

I have a form and I want to remove a bunch of unseeded Tab stops and only have Tabs available for the fields that need to be filled in. For the life of me I can find no way to accomplish this? Am I missing something here?

If you have Designer 8 you can ctrl + shift + click any field to remove it from the tab order. If you have Designer 9 try right clicking any field in the panel on the left (where the hierarchy shows up) and click Show Fields Only. As far as I know the only way to exclude a fillable field completely from the tab order in Designer 9 is to make it Protected in the Object pallette under the Value tab so that it gets skipped in the order.

In FrameMaker 9.0.3 and 9.0.4, I cannot set tab stops for a style in the Paragraph Designer.

In FrameMaker 9.0.3 and 9.0.4, I cannot set tab stops for a style in the paragraph designer. Here are the steps to dysfunction:
1. In Paragraph Designer, for Tab Stops, click Edit. Edit Tab Stop dialog box opens, and the Paragraph Designer dialog box closes.
2. Type value in New Position box.
3. Click Continue. The Edit Tab Stop box closes.
4. Open Paragraph Designer. No tabs are recorded.
Discussion of a similar problem occured on this forum in June 2010. At that time, the resolution seemed to be to upgrade to 9.0.3. Has anyone else encountered this problem with these versions?
Thanks.

Hi, Arnis,
Brilliant! Thanks so much. I only looked at the later discussions of that thread, which seemed to indicate the problem would be solved by an upgrade to 9.0.3.

JDeveloper Design tab stopped working

Hello,
Once upon a time
Without an obvious reason
My JDeveloper 11R2 design tab stopped working. It's just showing me page blocks instead: http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/5954/designbroken.png
Preview tab is also broken: http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/7563/designbroken2.png
It is just a JSF facelets page, nothing unusual. And it is not only this page, but all of them, so it is IDE trouble, not my code.
Tried to restart. Tried to reboot. Nothing.
On runtime everything's fine.
I really wouldn't like to reinstall JDeveloper and resotre all the IDE and IntegratedWebLogic configutration back again.
Is there any hope for solvation?
Thanks.

Emma,
Take a look at the troubleshooting tips on this page from the Infosemantics website:
http://www.infosemantics.com.au/adobe-captivate-widgets/drag-and-drop/troubleshooting-widg et-issues
Pay particular attention to the section entitled: "My drag and drop question works correctly sometimes, but not other times. "
From the appearance of your slide, it looks like you may have removed some of the components from the quiz slide that are necessary for it to function correctly. Try the test that this section of the troubleshooting suggests so that you can see if this is the case. If it turns out that you have deleted some items, you'll need to recreate your quiz slide to get them back again.
Hope this helps.

[JS CS3] Tab Stops in Table

Below is a function that would delete all existing tab stops in a column and the add a new tab stop.
function TabStopper (myPosition, xx){
myTable.columns.item(xx).cells.everyItem().texts[0].tabStops.everyItem().remove();
myTable.columns.item(xx).cells.everyItem().texts[0].tabStops.add({position:myPosition, alignment:TabStopAlignment.CHARACTER_ALIGN, alignmentCharacter:")"});
The problem is that this works well with CS2 but not with CS3. In CS3, only the tab stops in the last cell of the selected column are removed. Can anybody please help analyze what the problem is. Thank you so much.

Joaquin,
Strange indeed that that doesn't work. You can get around it by using this method:
function TabStopper (myPosition, xx){
myTable.columns.item(xx).cells.everyItem().texts[0].tabList =
[{position:xx, alignment:TabStopAlignment.CHARACTER_ALIGN, alignmentCharacter:")"}];
When you set a tabList like this, any other tabstops are deleted, and this works in CS3. (CS4 restores CS2's behaviour.)

IBooks Author strips tab stops from Table of Contents

Tab stops that are generated from section names are stripped from published iBooks Author files. When I click on Table of Contents in iBooks Author, I can see it exactly like it should be. Please see the screenshot that I have uploaded tabs.jpg.
Please note the Tab stops of the inspector that are in the screenshot. It shows clearly that I have made a number of tab stops and how it should be displayed. However, please download the following file to see how the tab stops are stripped from the .ibooks file that is created when I publish it:
http://ishqdesign.com/tabs/
I am in immediate need of a solution for a large book that I am in the process of publishing. Please advise.
Thanks,

The iBA Help has info on: table of contents
Which includes:
Each book comes with a table of contents that is updated automatically. You can view the table of contents at any time by selecting Table of Contents in the sidebar. The table of contents includes a default set of items, but you can change which items appear. A table of contents can include:
Chapter and section titles: All chapter and section titles are included in the table of contents by default. If you remove a section from the table of contents, all other sections that use the same layout are removed as well.
Text that uses specified paragraph styles: By default, the table of contents includes all paragraphs in the book that use the Heading 1 and Heading 2 style, but you can include whichever styles you like. Paragraph styles appear in the table of contents only in portrait orientation. See Format text using styles.
The way the table of contents looks depends on the current page orientation. In landscape orientation (shown below), each chapter has its own contents page, with navigation buttons at the bottom. In portrait orientation, the entire book’s table of contents is visible as an expandable list.
Add or remove items in the table of contents
If the Document inspector isn’t open, click Inspector in the toolbar and click the Document Inspector button.
Click the TOC button.
Do either or both of the following:
To add an item: Click the Add pop-up menu , choose Add Paragraph Style, and choose an option from the submenu.
To remove an item: Select the item you want to remove and click the Delete button .

Cancelling or removing the scheduled job

HI,
I have job running ...i made use of the following SQL statements
Select * from All_scheduler_jobs;
select * from USER_SCHEDULER_JOBS;
select * from user_scheduler_running_jobs;And i see the job is running ...How do i cancel or remove the job ??
Thank you!!

Hi,
calling dbms_scheduler.disable will prevent a job from running again, but it may still be running and may still exist.
To stop a running job you can use dbms_scheduler.stop_job and top drop a job you can use dbms_scheduler.drop_job.
To make sure you are dropping the right job, select owner and job_name from all_scheduler_jobs and use 'owner.job_name' instead of just job_name.
For further scheduler questions, you can use the scheduler forum here.

What's up with tab stops for index?

Hey,
Basically, I want my index to have dots before the numbers. Pretty standard: Words, blah bla.........8.
After reading the following page, I thought I understood how to format my index. Makes logical sense.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FrameMaker/9.0/Using/WSd817046a44e105e21e63e3d11ab7f7561e-7f65 .html
I got it to work for a minute, and then the dots disappeared, and I'm at a loss. Can't get them back, despite starting from scratch.
On my Ref pages I have:
................... 1, 2–3
................. Level2IX
The above paragraphs are formatted as Level1IX, and Level2IX, respectively, on the Ref Pages. When I go to the body pages and click on the text it seems that the correct info is in the Paragraph Designer, BUT NO DOTS or tabs come up.
Is there something I'm missing? I don't get why this can be so tricky? (Sorry, I'm a little frustrated at this point).
(By the way, I do hit Apply and then Update All on the Ref Pages, in the Paragraph Designer.)
Thanks,
Ian

The problem may be just one of those "well, that's how it works" things, or it may be something else.
I'm thinking of the problem that affects tabs and tab stops, when the width of the generated list's text frame on the body page is narrower than the generated list's specification text frame on the reference page.
FrameMaker's tab stops are "absolute," unlike almost every other tab stop you've seen; those are "relative." In FrameMaker-ese this means that the first (leftmost) tab character is absolutely connected to the first (leftmost) tab stop in the paragraph's format, and, naturally, the second goes with the second, etc.
If you type a tab character, it tried to go to the tab stop it's connected to. So, if the first tab character you type in the first line of a paragraph is to the left of the first tab stop, the text jumps to that tab stop, and you keep typing. The second tab character you type tries to go to the second tab stop, and so on.
However, if the typing has passed (gone to the right of) its tab stop, unlike relative tab behavior which goes to the next available tab stop, in FrameMaker that tab is dead. It's a zero-width lurker. If you type a second tab character at the same place as the dead first tab character, if the second tab stop is to the right of this tab character, the typing will jump to the tab stop, and so on.
Well, suppose you create a right-aligned tab stop at a fixed position on the line, say 6.5", about where the default reference page text frame ends, and you define the rest of its paragraph properties as you like, you'll expect everything on the body page created by generating a list or index from that reference page. Good thinking. But NOOOOOOOOOT necessarily true. If the main text frame in the generated list or index document has been narrowed, that right-aligned tab stop will be outside the margin, and stuff will act silly.
Moral: it's always a good idea to define tab stop positions in the exact text frame where they will appear. Usually, there's no problem, except when the paragraphs are defined in the text frame on the reference page. It's not always the same width as the document page on which it places generated text.
If this isn't the problem, I'm out of ideas. Probably something that's easier to explain<G>.

Cancel or Remove a backup to a database in SQL 2008 R2

I got it, duh it was in the SQL server Agent, just disabled it. Thanks for the help anyways.

Need to delete or disable a configured database backup job on SQL Server 2008 R2.
Configured it in two places, one through the Maintenance Plan and the other one was done by right-clicking the " database" -->selecting Tasks-->Back up and Set a Schedule to run every 2 hours. I need this one canceled or removed and it won't allow me, I went back in and set the schedule to backup for only one day and it still did not stop.
Any Ideas, just want to keep the one created in the Maintenance Plan?
Thanks

Tab stop

Hi,
I have the following problem.
EKPO-ABMNG and T006A-MSEHT are not appearing at the designated
tab stop as declared in the paragraph format U1.
Why do you have an idea.?
Maybe the reserved place for
material number EKPO-ematn (see below) is to long. How can I anyway enforce to place the variable
EKPO-ABMNG at the designated tab stop ?
U1 <K>&EKPO-EBELP+1(4)&,,&EKPO-ematn&,,&EKPO-ABMNG&,,&*T006A-MSEHT&
= ,,&EKPO-NETPR&,,&RM06P-PRP&,,&EKPO-ZWERT&</>
Regards
Marco

Hi Macro,
As the field EKPO-ABMNG is a quality field, the data will be right justified, so its not appering as per your requirement.
I suggest to change this to character format & then print.
See below code
data : C_ABMNG type char17.
move EKPO-ABMNG to C_ABMNG .
condense C_ABMNG .
Now C_ABMNG is ready for printing in your form & can be placed as per your requirement.
Hope this helps!!

Using tab stops and lining up number or alpha lists.

I have a Acrobat form that was given me to try and duplicate in Designer. The form contains 14 items in a alpha list a-n. Like this.
a. Lifting
b. Bending
c. Stooping
d. Pushing or pulling
e. Twisting
f. Climbing
etc.
I can't see a way to add a tab stop after the period so all the names line up the same. Is there a way to do this that I'm just not seeing or finding?

Hopefully this shows up...
In Example 1, the text is short so lines up on the left. (The red lines are meant to represent the boundaries.) In Example 2, the text is too long to fit within the preset boundaries, so should justify on the right. I feel like this should be possible. So far the only way I've found to do it is by using a standard tab, and replacing the tab on the longer lines with a right tab character, but that's still a manual solution.
EXAMPLE 1:

How can i stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV

I have a second collection in my web application for Project Server
http:\\servername\PWA.
Whenever I try to edit a page using sharepoint designer, it tells me that
The website has been configured to disallow page editing with Sharepoint Designer.
That isnt the reason. Searching on the interweb, It seems that whenever you have a second collection, designer always connects using Webdav and this doesn't support designer.
So ----- Can anyone tell me how to get around this problem without installing PWA as it's own Web Application?
Thanks in advance - Mickeal Davis

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to stop sharepoint designer from opening my site with WEBDAV.
What’s the main reason of the problem that related to Project Site Template this by default set to DisableWebDesignFeatu es in
ONET.XML.
To enable edit Project Site in SharePoint Designer, you need to remove the DisableWebDesignFeatures="wdfopensite" from ONET.xml of the PWA site.
