Cannot type in Actions Frame

I just created my first swf in Flash 8 Basic. Everything went
great until I wanted to put a stop action at the end. Then I found
that I couldn't type in the Actions Frame (displayed by pressing
F9). I could enter the stop action by selecting it in the list that
appeared when I clicked the plus sign ("add new item to the
script"). But I am a coder and want to type my own ActionScript.
What gives? Isn't possible to type in the Actions Frame with Flash
Basic? (If not I want my money back.)

do you have Script Assist turned on? sounds like it - just
turn it off (upper right corner of AS panel.

  • Inserting an image "You cannot perform this action..."

    I see from earlier posts that users are struggling to add
    links and are seeing the error "You cannot perform this action in
    this area of the page". I am getting the same error when trying to
    insert an image. No reason why I should start to get this error.
    I've inserted images on this page before. But then Contribute does
    seem to start doing (or not doing) things of it's own accord. I
    have tried using the <p></p> fix that other users say
    work fo rlinks but it doesn't work for images. Frustrated.

    I might be able to shed a little light on one possible reason
    for this and I believe it to be a bug in Contribute.
    This only seems to happen on .asp pages where you have Flash
    that you are feeding URL variables into it.
    If you edit any editable region on the page for some reason
    Contribute wants to bung:
    <MM:BeginLock unremovable type="MM_EDITTEXTONLY"
    orig="%3C%25=vname%25%3E">
    Into my Flash code, thus corrupting the whole page code and
    totally confusing Contribute. And this happens even if you are
    editing a region totally unrelated to the Flash
    code?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!
    I tried to take this up some time ago with Adobe support who
    were so unhelpful I gave up and rewrote the pages as standard .html
    and used template variables instead.
    Contact me if you need anymore information.

  • Recipient Type in Action Profile

    Hi all,
    I have created an action profile which triggers a smart form mail when the campaign is saved. When defining conditions for the action profile, in the processing details tab, the recipient type is selected as "sap user" and sap username is provided in the recipient address field. The action is executed successfully.
    Our requirement is that,
    1.Can we send this smart form mail to multiple recipients?
    2. In the processing details tab, if i select the recipient type as Org. Unit / Position, what should be the input for the address field?
    (Is it the ID of the org unit / position?)
    Please help.....
    Sindhu.

    Hi Sindhu,
    For the email in acton profile you have to select external communication as the processing type and then when you double click the external communication type in action defintion for the action, you will get the type of smart form and the class and other details which you need to enter based on the requirement for ex reminder mail as std smart form in case of reminders to be sent and class of crm_...ex or for sending CRM header data etc.
    Once this is done and when you go to conditions you can select the processing type and then yu have processing details and on the right frame you have the Document tab and then sleect this tab and select comm method as standard (by default SAP will pick up the std communiation medium mentioned in master data and it has to be mentioned in the master data of the BP as std communication as email and his email id.
    you can select a specific partner function based on which the email will be sent to the partner is there in the activity.

    I saved my Form Central spreadsheet file once as a excel file but Forms Central will not allow me to save the file a second time as an excel file.  I am informed that I cannot complete this action because the file me be open in another application, but it is not open in another application.

    First check the version of the document with Jongware's script "Identify.jsx" (ExtendScript/JavaScript).
    You can find it here:
    [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File
    If it is CS 5.5 or above, you need someone to open it in the version the script says and export an IDML representation from that. Another way would be to install a 30days version of CS6 or above (CC) and do it yourself.
    In regards of the script showing a result for InDesign files higher than CS6:
    CS7 = CC v9
    CS8 = CC v10 = CC-2014 or CC2014.1

  • Unable to expand DG is Lync client - Cannot perform this action, and the cause is unknown.

    Hi,
    I have a user in our Hong Kong office that is unable to open a distribution group she has added to her Groups. She gets the error message "Cannot perform this action, and the cause is unknown. Contact your support team to investigate."
    I can add the group and expand it, so can some of her colleague, and some cannot. Her colleagues who can have the same client and global policy settings as she does. 
    I read in a similar thread that this could be resolved by confirming the server times on Lync, AD (domain controller checked and Exchange but they were all correct and in sync. 
    The global policy is set to 250 max contacts - but does a DL count as 1 contact, or does it count all the people within the DG? I am getting HK to confirm she does not have too many contacts but I dont think this is the issue. 
    Anyone else come across this issue?

  • We cannot type Polish (non-latin) characters in WebDynpro applications

    We cannot type Polish (non-latin) characters in WebDynpro application (in runtime) because 'Browser Help Shortcuts' are fired.
    To type a polish character in polish keyboard you need to press AltGr + letter (ie. AltGr + a/c/e/s/o/l/z/x/n). To type an uppercase polish character you need to press AltGr + Shift + letter. This comination is in fact the same as pressing Alt + Ctrl + Shift + letter (because AltGr produces Alt + Ctrl) and it fires some of 'Browser Help Shortcuts'. For example AltGr + Shift + O should produce a letter O with a dash on it's top but instead it fires 'Show nesting of HTML containers'.
    We tried to turn off sap-wd-lightspeed, but then other key combinations are reserved for u2018Browser Help Shortcutsu2019.
    We need to be able to use AltGr + Shift + a/c/e/s/o/l/z/x/n in runtime.

    I hope there is a somewhere a hidden parameter that solves our problem Maybe we're in some kind of debug mode?
    Thanks for your help!!

    The funny thing is that bold font [when message unread in message list] shows OK, ie in greek, but when i click on unread message, it is assumed to have been read, so it changes over to medium [non bold] and the encoding changes as well into the one that is not greek and thus unreadable.  In ~/.sylpheed/sylpheedrc the fonts are:
    widget_font=
    message_font=-microsoft-sylfaenarm-medium-r-normal-*-*-160-*-*-p-*-iso8859-7
    normal_font=-monotype-arial-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-7
    bold_font=-monotype-arial-bold-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-7
    small_font=-monotype-arial-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-7
    In /etc/gtk, for gtk1.2 apps the file refering to greek encoding [el] seems to be fine [exactly the same as in slackware 9.1].

  • Cannot type in a text box or text callout box

    I'm using Windows 7, IE 9.0.8112.16421, and Acrobat version 10.1.6. I am working in a priorietary platform for reviewing material and I can use all of the commenting tools and can create a text box and a text callout box, but I cannot type in them. My text box and text callout box work just fine with every other program that I use on my system. But this requires using Acrobat and its tools within their platform and I cannot type in those two boxes in that situation. Their first suggestion was it was an Acrobat problem. We have repaired and reinstalled several times to no avail. They then said to be sure Acrobat Reader was not installed (and it wasn't). I've cleared history. Their online reviewing system requires a specific Java script in a specific place -- we've installed, deleted, reinstalled, etc. and it still doesn't work.
    I've used this platform on another computer and it works fine. I got a new computer in February with a new CS, and the problem is occurring on only this new system. And only when I am using Acrobat in their platform.
    Would anyone have any suggestions what I might try? They said they had one report of a person having the same problem, but they had Reader installed.
    Thanks!

    I don't know how to save a sample file to the forum.  But I know it's actualy being created because I can close and reopen the document and the text box is still there and you can still select the text in the text box, view it and see it.  But as soon as you click outside the text box, the text in the text box disappears again until you click back inside the text box.
    This problem has been discussed ad nauseum with no solution ever having been given.

    I am on Adobe X Pro and whenever I add text using the text edit tool the text disappears when I add text to another place in the document. It is also creating comments for every place I add text. How do I get the text to remain visible in the document and not create a comment?

  • After converting to word cannot type in document?

    cannot type in exported documents, word, scaned pdf?
    ms office 2011 for mac , with latest updates

    Hi,
    It seems that your Word file is an image rather than selectable text.
    If your PDF file contains scanned images please turn "ON" OCR to recognize those images to selectable text when you export the PDF file to Word.
    Please let me know if you still have the same issue.
    Note: To turn ON OCR:  Check ON for "Recognize scanned text in" in Export Options dialog of  web ui(https://createpdf.acrobat.com/signin.htmlor hhtps://exportpdf.acrobat.com/signin.html) or "Recognize text in English" in Reader X or Reader XI
    Thank you.

  • I am not proficient using pages. I opened and saved a document but for some reason there is no cursor so I cannot type in the document. How can i revert to a blank page?

    I opened a document in pages but cannot type anything in the document

    I assume that you you tried tapping and holding down on the document and the keyboard would not pop up and the insertion point did not appear.
    If you want to start with a clean slate, tap the Documents button in the upper left corner. When in thumbnail view you can tap the edit button in the upper right - find that blank document that you just closed - tap on it and then tap the trash can in the upper left to delete it.
    To start with a new document - tap the + button in the upper left corner and tap Create New Document.

  • InDesign CS3 & OSX Leopard  cannot type into palettes

    In InDesign CS3, I cannot type into palette boxes (e.g. to choose a typeface, find & change, the tranform palette etc etc).
    It allows me to type so far, then seems to 'refresh' itself, wiping what I have typed and reverting to what was there before.
    We have two iMacs (2.66GHZ Intel Core2Duo, 2GB RAM) here having the same problem!
    Has anyone else experienced this, or know of a solution/workaround? It's driving us nuts!

    If you disable the auto activation plugin if you are using Suitcase X1 you will most likely see the problem disappear. I would use a program call FontNuke as well to purge corrupt font cache files. Use startup sets or project sets... stinks but gets rid of the stalling/crashing.

  • V4.1 "You cannot perform this action in this region of the page" Bug?

    I am receiving an "You cannot perform this action in this
    region of the page" error when I try to add a link to an image. And
    yes I am in an editable region.
    The weird thing is, for the images that already have links, I
    can edit them successfully, but if I remove them I cannot add a
    link back to it.
    This site was originally being administered using contribute
    3.11 but the client is now using 4.1 could that have something to
    do with it?
    Thank you,

    I was also having this problem but I was able to confirm that it wasn't old code or javascript problems. In the process of troubleshooting we realized that some links were editable and others were not. Turns out all the links that used PHP (in this case an echo for the site url) were the ones that were uneditable.
    Since I've been creating pages and content with this method for years and have only had a problem in the last month, I don't really feel like this has been "solved". I certainly don't want to go back and edit all my pages using php for site organization but at least this will allow the client to make edits for now.

  • Firefox 5.0 cannot complete the action of attaching a document to a Calendar Event in Google Calendar, while internet explorer and chrome can.

    When using Firefox 5 i cannot complete the action of attaching a document (google doc or uploaded doc) to an event in Google Calendar. This action does work correctly in ie and chrome, so it seems to be a compatibility issue. When i get as far as selecting the attachment the script seems to stop. Even "cancel" is un responsive. I have to reload the tab to move on.

    Firefox uses that loopback connection to communicate with the Software Security Device. That includes the Password Manager and secure connections.

    This could be a Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services. The notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved.
    Resetting Launch Services
    The following article also describes the side effects of cache cleaning:
    Side effects of System cache cleaning
    The following article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner.
    In addition to the utilities mentioned above, you may also consider OnyX, which is free. If you want to try OnyX, after installing it, do this (be sure to read the articles about the side effects of cache cleaning first):
    1. Quit all applications.
    2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
    3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
    4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you've already done them using other utilities.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    6. Restart.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, you may try again checking the Links between documents and applications option in step 3 instead.
    And yet another free cache cleaning utility is Cache Out X.
    Please, let me know whether you were able to solve the problem, what worked for you and what didn't.
