Change tooltip text dinamically... how to doit?

Hi guys! Can somebody helpme with my problem with tooltips? I have a component, it is a JLabel, that has a tooltip.
I implemented a thread that dinamically changes the tooltip text but it is not working. It seems to use the TooltipText present at the moment of ToolTip creation. I mean that setToolTipText does not work when the tooltip is visible.
How can I change dinamically the Tooltip Text?
Any suggestion?
Regards

Not sure if this is the problem, but I would make sure you change the tooltip text in the event thread. See here for more info:

How to change the text in the legend of a graph programmatically in labview

I have many graphs in one plot and want to show the legend the name of the graph (i.e. the filename). How do I change the text in the legend programmatically?

Create a property node for your graph. Use the property node "Active Plot" to define which plot (or line) you want to rename. Then write the new legend label to the property node "Plot.Name". See attached.

How do I change the text color of footers on select pages? (InDesign CS6)

Good afternoon,
Months ago, I worked with a graphic designer to put together a 100-page workbook for my training company. He turned all of the files over to me and I'd like to make a small change before we print another run for a new client. Specifically, I'm having trouble changing the text color on select pages. Since a picture says 1,000 words, let me give you an example:
As you can see, the copyright information on the right side of the page is difficult to read here when placed over the photo (you may have to look closely, but it's along the guy's sleeve). What I'd love to do is change that part of the footer (not the left, page number side) to white text. This would make it quite a bit easier to read. There's a number of other pages in the book that I want to make this change to. I'm not sure why I never noticed it or mentioned it to the designer. I suppose I've become more discerning since then.
Let me tell you what I've tried to do:
I learned how to override master pages by CTRL+SHIFT clicking on the footer. However, this has not worked for me. It allows me to change the page number part, but not the copyright side. Additionally, sometimes when I override the master the formatting of the footer goes goofy. For instance, the left side and right side come together and end up in the middle of the page I'm working on.
I'm looking for a quick way to go through and make the footers easier to read on pages where they are backed by a photo. Hoping you can help me. Please let me know if you need any other information.
Best,
Taylor

I think you should have left it as it was. It seems like what you had was single pages flowing as spreads within InDesign. Like below. That is the correct way, and when you changed it to all single, it did create your footer problems.
Will you be sending the file as a PDF to your online printer? If so, then leaving the InDesign file set as below is fine. The PDF output will separate the pages.
All you have to do is make sure that Pages, not Spreads, is chosen when you output the PDF

How to change default texts in OSX dialogue windows?

I'd like to change some of the texts that appear in the OSX dialogue boxes.
One example: I have set my Mac up to ask for the password after N minutes of sleep. I would like to change the text in the box/window that appears when the Mac is woken up and where you are told to submit your ID and password (I'm sorry that I am not sure what exactly it says in English because I'm using another language).
The closest thing to what I need I have come across is this:
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText 'Hands off'
However, this applies only to the first login window you see after you have started the computer. I'd like to change other default texts as well.
The default texts in different languages must be stored somewhere. How do I find them and how do I chage them? Any advice would be appreciated.

It seems like the same problem as would be faced by someone localizing the OS, so perhaps there would be something useful here:

How to change a text in an icon prorgrammatically

Hi,
I've got some VIs that have a text in common in their icons but I would like to change that text because I'm going to use that VIs in another part of the project. So, how can I change that text programmatically in all VIs that are in the same directory?.
I know it's possible because in the GOOP Developer program they do.
Thanks,

How to change the text in a browser title bar?

I'm new at flash and I'm finding most things obvious, but
this is one I just can't figure out!
How the dickens do you change the text that shows in, say, an
Internet Explorer window?
Is it by filename? Mine, the index page, currently shows as
the exciting and unprofessional "index"
I've taken over the work from someone else who I'm not able
to contact (I know, that NEVER happens /sarcasm) so I'd appreciate
any help I can get.
Thanks.
Nick

Yes.

> HTML template that's published?
Depending on where you specify that file's location (which
you can also
set for the SWF itself), you navigate to that folder, then
edit the
resultant HTML file in whatever text editor you please, from
Notepad/TextMate to Dreamweaver.
If you're asking how to edit the template Flash uses to
generate this
file, you can find that (at least, on Windows) at this
location:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS4\en\First Run\HTML\
Be warned, however, that these template files, though
HTML-based, are
heavily programmed with JavaScript and a number of custom
tokens that get
populated by Flash when it goes through the publish process.
For example,
in the Default.htmll file inside this folder, you'll see a
<title> tag whose
content reads "$TI" (without quotes). Think of that as a
varible. That
gets populated with the the name you've given the FLA file,
simply because
$TI arbitrarily refers to the file name in this scenario. You
can change
this if you like, but if you do, make sure to safe it as a
new file (or at
least back up the original templates that ship with Flash).
> Does that make a bit more sense? :)
Only if I've properly understood your question! If I still
haven't,
please try again. :)

How can I change the text in toolbars ("Forward" to "Fwd", etc)

I want to shorten the text for items in my toolbar because the address box is way too short. I know how to change the items for items on the second row toolbar (right-click>properties), but I want to change the text for items in the top row. Right click does not show a property option for the items in the top row. For example, I want to change "Back" to "Bk", "Forward" to "Fwd". Two of the items are way too long ("Google Shortcuts v" and "Downloads"). I want to change these to "Gogl extr" and "DnLds". I want both text and the icons.
By any chance, if the above can not be done, can I create custom icons? I'd take the current icon (where are they stored?) and add my own text into the icon, then tell firefox to show the icon.
I'm using Firefox 22.0

Have you considered using Icons ''(only)'' instead of Text and Icons in the Customize Toolbars dialog box?

How to dynamically change the text of a TextObject with embedded DataField?

Hi
I'm trying to dynamically change the text of a TextObject at runtime, by using the .NET library. My problem is that if one or more DatabaseFieldDefinition is embedded inside my text, I'm unable to change the "static text" only, by keeping the field, e.g. I have :
Text1 => "Contact Name: {Contact.Name}"
and I'd like to change it to anything else like:
Text1 => "Nom du Contact: {Contact.Name}"
Half of my TextObject is static text while second part comes from the dataset.
(of course the translation is dynamic - it is called at run-time and the new value to be set depends on the calling application language)
If I simply modify the Text property of my TextObject, the {Contact.Name} embedded field is not evaluated anymore by the Crystal Engine, but considered as a single text.
Using formulas or parameters looks quite difficult, because it means having many ones just for translation needs - I cannot control the way my users will create their reports and "force them" to use complex methods just in order to put a text and a value together...
Anyone knows how to deal with that ?

Only way I can think of doing this:
1) Create a formula (call it lang) and enter the string "Contact Name" in it
2) Place the {Contact.Name} field next to the string
3) So now you have:
ContactName: {Contact.Name}
4) Check what localization you are after. If you need "Nom du Contact", change the lang formula so it shows "Nom du Contact" using the code below:
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1()
Dim FormulaFields As FormulaFieldDefinitions
Dim FormulaField As FormulaFieldDefinition
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FormulaFields = Report.DataDefinition.FormulaFields
FormulaField = FormulaFields.Item(0)
FormulaField.Text = "[formula text]"
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Report
End Sub
I realize this may not give you consistent spacing as the translations may have strings of differnt length. Perhaps someone has other idea(s)...

HoW to ChaNGE the text in the mobile application to be in MulTi-CoLoR text

_* Do anyone can tell me how to change the text in the mobile application to be in multi-color text, to make it more interesting and increase readability?
Is it using the Graphic's paint() method? or any better suggestion?
Please give the short example if can?
Please help... "_"
Hearing from u all soon...@_@
thanks....

Go into outline view. If you can see the outlines of the letterforms, you can't just change the text. If the letterforms are solid black, take the type tool, select the text and type yours.
Anyway you can just select the letters, take the type tool and type new text.
Working with the type tool is a basic. Please see the manual for details

How to change the text of a user defined field in dynamic selections?

Logical Database PSJ is used by t code CJI3 - we added a couple of user fields into the dynamic selections of CJI3.
Now - how to change the text of this user filed (USR01 of structure PRSP_R in logical database PSJ)?
Found an OSS note - 86980 - that tells that this is not possible.
But when we read the documentation on the user field (CJI3 - dynamic selections - double click on user field - F1), it shows the following text:
User-defined field in which you can enter general information with a length of up to 20 characters.
Dependencies
The names (key words) for user-defined fields depend on the field key.
Now the question is where to change the field key..
Thanks,
Ven

Madhu - you did not get the question I think.
Anyways - I found an OSS note 1266643 - this code change should take care of the issue - it will then reflect the details maintained in custoizng at transaction code OPS1..
Thanks,
