Capture text introduced by paste

Hey,
Guys is it possible to get the text intoduced by paste from the key event.
My problem is that i have a key listener added to a text field.
Here in the key Typed event i am validating if the
Character.isDigit(e.getKeyChar()) that is whether the character is a digit or not.
In the keyPressed i am checking whether it is a backspace.
And if by means of flag i am allowing it in the keyTyped.
I am consuming other events in the keyTyped event.
But if user pastes say "sdfdsfal" thru ctrl + V then it is allowing is it possible any way thry key listenerthat i cant get the paste contents
Any suggestions on this?
boolean bkspcflg=false;
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e)
     if(e.getKeyCode()==8)
          bkspcflg=true;
     else
                              bkspcflg=false;
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e)
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e)
     if( !(Character.isDigit(e.getKeyChar())) )
          if(!bkspcflg)
          e.consume();
Thanks,
Balaji

My problem is that i have a key listener added to a text field.Yes, that is indeed your problem. :) What you should do is create a custom Document, overriding the insertString() and (maybe) remove() methods. The API doc for JTextField contains some sample code showing how to do this.

How can I keep my text format after pasting a text with a different format?

No matter when and where I start to write some text (whether it is a SImpleText, E-Mails, or anyother application's doc), if I have to cut and paste a text from a different source that is formatted differently than my original text (ie. the one I am already using ), once I have pasted the differently formatted text in my doc, the typeset changes while it continues to type with the same formatt used in the text I just pasted.
How can I continue typing with the same text formatt used before pasting the new text, after pasting the new text, without having to change size, font style etc. Is there a short cut?
What I have been doing to avoid this problem is: I usually type my entire text content (whether it is an E-Mail, or other doc) then, once I am done typing, I paste the text that was cut from a differently formatted document, so that my text remains with the same formatt in its integrity, while the pasted text stands out differently, but it is a bit complex doing that , because I not only have to remember to paste the other text when I am done typing (I run the risk of forgetting to paste the text I need to insert--which has happened already) or I keep struggling with my formatt change after the pasting of the new text, so my document text starts looking like the same text as the one which was just pasted.
Thanks for your time reading this!

(1) First, let's make sure we're talking about the same thing. By "SImpleText, E-Mails" you mean TextEdit and Mail, right?
(2) Some apps (TextEdit, Mail) use the text engine provided by Mac OS X. By and large, these apps will behave in a similar manner. Others (eg, MS Word) use their own text engine, and their behaviour can be quite different. For such an app you need to consult its manual.
(3) In TextEdit, if you want the pasted text to adopt the current style, then use kurt188's tip.
(4) However, if you may want the pasted text to retain its own attributes, while you continue to type in the previous style. I don't know of any shortcut or command that will achieve this. However, you can try to work around it.
(4.1) TextEdit has the Copy Style (⌘⌥C) and Paste Style (⌘⌥V) commands. If you haven't yet used it, ⌘⌥V will insert the default style. So type, paste, ⌘⌥V, then continue typing. If you have used, it will insert whatever style was copied. You can, type, ⌘V, click somewhere before the pasted text, ⌘⌥C, click after the pasted text, ⌘⌥V, and continue typing.
(4.2) Alternatively, type your text. Then type one more character, eg, "x". Then ←, ⌘V, ⇧→, and start typing. The new text should adopt "x"'s format. (This should work in Mail, too. I don't know, because IMHO e-mail should always be plain text.)

How do I delete or edit a captured text layer that contains a single character in Cp 5?

My captured text layer contains a single character '7'. This renders immediately when I publish the movie, but I don't get any options when I try to edit the layer by right-clicking on it.
Can anyone help as this is very annoying...

Hello,
Welcome on the forum.
Since you are talking about 'capture', I presume you are pointing to a Typing object? You cannot edit this right away. Depending on what you want to realize, could propose two workarounds:
If you only want to show something typing (demonstration - but another text than your character), replace the Typing object by a Text Animation (right-click menu), you'll be able to edit it.
If you want the user to type in a text, delete the Typing object and replace it by a Text Entry Box.

Nano text editor reformats pasted text. How to disable

When using nano text editor in terminal to edit a shell file, it reformats text that I paste in from the clipboard. I can't find any way to disable this. There is nothing in the nanorc docs that at all seems to apply. This is on a default configuration for nano on OS X Snow leopard.
Here is an example:
If I cut the following text from text edit or bbedit:
#!/bin/bash --
# /usr/local/bin/fixsyncpermissions.sh
# Eden Nelson - 4/14/08
# Sam Smith 4/15/08
# 755 = rwxrwxr-x
#set -vx
SHAREPOINTPATH="/Volumes/SBData/ServerSync"
CHMODMODE="775"
CHMODUSER="admin"
CHMODGROUP="admin"
echo "Start Permissions Fix on $SHAREPOINTPATH"
chown -R "$CHMODUSER":"$CHMODGROUP" "$SHAREPOINTPATH"
chmod -R "$CHMODMODE" "$SHAREPOINTPATH"
echo "Completed Permissions Fix on Volumes/Aux/ServerSync"
exit
Then paste it into nano
$ sudo nano fixsyncpermissions.sh
and then command v to paste
It shows up like this in Nano
#!/bin/bash --
# /usr/local/bin/fixsyncpermissions.sh Eden Nelson - 4/14/08 Sam Smith 4/15/08 755 = rwxrwxr-x set -vx
SHAREPOINTPATH="/Volumes/SBData/ServerSync" CHMODMODE="775" CHMODUSER="admin" CHMODGROUP="admin" echo "Start Permissions Fix on $SHAREPOINTPATH" chown -R
"$CHMODUSER":"$CHMODGROUP" "$SHAREPOINTPATH" chmod -R "$CHMODMODE" "$SHAREPOINTPATH" echo "Completed Permissions Fix on Volumes/Aux/ServerSync" exit
Notice that is stripped the comment symbols '#' from the comment lines and concatenated them
then it stripped the carriage returns from the other lines and concatenated them.
Anybody have a clue as to what is causing this?

Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

Can't shown chinese text when copy & paste data from server to Outlook, Word & notepad, etc.( Office 2013)

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, when you copy & paste a data from server to Outlook, word, notepad, then you do not receive the Chinese text.
For Outlook, please follow these steps: -
Close and reopen Outlook in your western locale (or switch the windows system to your Western locale if you changed that),
Manually change the message from Western to Chinese encoding, which you can do in all versions up to Outlook 2007.
If you want to stay in your Chinese locale in Outlook 2007, then:
After you hit reply, go to the Option tab > More Options.
In the Encoding drop-down menu, select the Chinese encoding you are working in (Not the encoding used by the person who will receive the message)
Note:
To set the Chinese locale in all versions up to 2007 the controls are under.
Tools > Options. In Outlook 2010 File tab > Options > Advanced > International options.
Unicode (UTF-8)
is a good setting for multilingual users.
Check the
Auto select 2007)/ Automatically select (2010) encoding box.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

When I try to copy a drawing with text, it only pastes the text, can anyone help me?

Are your drawing layers locked and the text layers unlocked? So far it sounds as if the "Copy" command isn't grabbing anything but the text. I've had a similar problem with text not coming across when I saved my vector art as a raster image: for that I had to remove a compound path or something from the text before it would come over.
Make sure your layers (and sublayers) aren't locked, and check your compound paths and clipping masks to see if there's something funny going on.

As I understand it, this vulnerability has to do with applications that use Webkit. What is being done about it? Can we expect security updates for Mountain Lion and iOS 6 soon?

AFAIK, there has not been an update regarding this issue as yet.

Captured text appears in Cyrillic?

I have a pdf file that displays in normal English, but when text is captured to the clipboard and re-pasted, that text shows in an odd font similar to Cyrillic. I have not noticed any obvious options for selecting a font, especially one that relates only to the clipboard.
I have never seen this before. Any ideas about what causes this and how to fix it?
(Currently using Reader 11.02, but this appears to be purely a function of the pdf file)

The "clipboard" Is purely an OS function, be it Windows or Mac. That's how you can cut or copy, and paste between applications from different sources and formats. There could be something in the OCR that was performed on the PDF that causes this. When I copy and paste into Word, I always choose to paste without formatting (text only) and then do my formatting (including font selection) afterward.

Capture Text using Terminal

Hi,
I use Terminal to Telnet into my routers. I would like to be able to capture the output text from the routers. Does anybody knows how to accomplish this?
I don't want to use copy and paste.
Thanks for your help.

The standard shell redirect '>' will direct output to the specified file. If the filename doesn't exist it's created. If it does exist, it's overwritten. It's up to you to specify a filename that doesn't conflict with an existing file if you want to keep old ones.
An alternative would be to use '>>' which appends the text to the file. That way you get one file with all the content.
However, I'm not sure either of these are going to work for you since they won't work with interactive commands such as telnet - all output is directed to the file and you won't see anything in your terminal.
You can get a little further by using tee which directs the output to both your terminal window and the file:
telnet your.router.ip | tee /path/to/file.txt
which will both capture the output to the file and let you see it. However, it won't capture any input - any commands you type will not be written to the file. Not sure if that's enough for you.
The last option I can think of is Terminal's Save Text As... command which will let you save the current terminal window in a text file, or Save Selected Text As... which will save the current selection to a file. Both of these are post-processed, though and you'll need to remember to do them before you close the window.

How to capture text input value by user in a LOV search popup page?

I need to capture the input by the user in LOV search page. I added one controller in the LOV region, and the flow is also working, but what I need to hold the search input in the search popup page. Also do you know what is the id of " Search Term" text input? then I can try to hold the value in PFR of the CO.

Hi Sandeep,
Yes, as of now I need to populate blank, so I need to modify the SQL, therefore I need to capture the value which is given by the user. I am trying to capture the value through passive criteria, but not able to get the result. I added below code in PFR of lov region controller,
       Dictionary passiveCriteriaItems = pageContext.getLovCriteriaItems();
       String lov = (String)passiveCriteriaItems.get("SwitchLOV");
      if ((lov != null) && !("".equals(lov)))
           throw new OAException(lov, OAException.INFORMATION);
SwitchLOV is a lov map I have added in the LOV, and
Programmatic Query set to true. and
LOV Region Item is the id for which user searches.
I am getting null in the "lov" where i have give some value in the search field.
Is this would be the way?
I dont understand where is the issue, Please suggest.

Is there a way to make text that is pasted into text fields be consistent?

People want to paste text into the form fields but they don't want to have to change the font before they paste it and they would like it to change to a consistent font.

And if Drew's excellent reply doesn't do it for you, here's some text I prepared earlier (in best Blue Peter stylee for those of you in the UK... ;-))
The process is this:
1) create your menu background with all of the graphics in a single layer - make it look like you want the menu to be when no button is selected. Add all text, etc for the buttons. Flatten it and save as a pict file, 24bit colour.
2) add a layer to this photoshop image and just add the highlights that you want - a tick, arrow, underline, etc. Hide the background layer and convert this new layer to grayscale (you will need to flatten the image), then save it as a .pict file, 4 bit max - 2 bit could do it, too (You might now want to use the history tool to undo certain steps and save the file as a psd file so that you can make changes if you need to).
3) import both .pict files into DVDSP and set one as the background and the other as the overlay into your menu. In the menu editor, click and drag the mouse over the places where the buttons need to be. Click in one of those button hotspots and look in the property inspector under the 'color' tab. Use the sliders there to adjust what you want the highlights to be in each button state - remember that you are using a simple overlay in gray scale.

�using a BufferedReader object to capture text from a JTextField?

Please i need some help with this.
I was using the following line to get the data from the keyboard:
BufferedReader en =new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
But now i changed to get the data from an applet, where the user would type the info i need into a JTextField. How do I create a BufferedReader that contains the string typed by the user?
I know how to capture the event and everything, my problem is : i dont know how to set the value of my variable "en" with the text typed by the user in the JTextField.
Thanks a lot.

You might want to think about your design and figure out if you really need a BufferedReader to get the text from a text box, or whether a BufferedReader was just something you had to do on the way to getting a string from the console.
If you really need a BufferedReader (e.g. because the contents of the text box might be several lines and you need those lines one at a time) thennew BufferedReader(new StringReader(jtf.getText()))
