Create a keyboard like the japanese one?

hi everybody!
I am a linguist and I am working with a quite odd system of writing, I have created a special font and now I would need a keyboard to write it.
The input method should be similar to the method to write hiragana/kanji, that is one write the phonetic spelling, and the computer offer a series of ideographic (taken from a dictionary, I think) match among which the user can choose the right form.
Ok, I have already created such an application with realbasic, but it would be nice if it were possible to put it in the top in the form of a standard keyboard..
is it possible to do somethink like that?
that is, it is possible to create a new keyboard with a japanese-like input method? and if yes, how can I do?
Thank in advance!

Hi,
Somehow, almost understand what you want to achieve, mostly, I think. But you really need to explain more.
Forgive me, but it sounds like you do not really know exactly what you want. (in term of programming)
What do you want to say by :
"Ok, I have already created such an application with realbasic, but it would be nice if it were possible to put it in the top in the form of a standard keyboard.."
(This is the part I did not understand)
Did you mean an input methode, like kotoeri for japanese under MAC OS X ?
Have you ever programmed for mac OS X (carbon or cocoa) before ? If yes, then this should be very close to what you want : take a look on the side of the accessibility API. There are already applications available that can substitute user's text input with other text. For instance, replacing :
YUME by 夢 (Hint : you need to make your application trusted)
Is is what you were looking for ?

    How can I create a drawing like the one pictured from a photo?

    OK, you are getting closer. Now, use your result, and place a Layer above that. Use the Pen Tool to create the "pen strokes" basically tracing over your background image. Then, when you have created each Path (or Sub-Path), choose Stroke Path, with probably the Pencil Tool and a Brush size that is small enough.
    Not sure which versions of PS these are good for, but here are some plug-ins, that might be helpful.

    How can i create a Laptop like the ones use in SAP TecEd hands on labs? with all the NW products install on it.

    Hi,
    Vague question, but to create a laptop with the solution installed - you need to order the solution and and then install it on the laptop. Or download trial versions from SCN and install those as well.

  • How to create a button like the one pictured here

    How would I create a button like the print button below?
    I was thinking actually make it two separate buttons placed next to each other. The print button obviously would just be a modified boolean, that's easy. But the drop down is a bit harder. I figure I could customize a drop down but because I haven't been able to play around with it in LabVIEW (don't have it at home) I'm not sure if you can modify the alignment of the box that actually drops down etc. Is the drop down box location and look something you can modify within the control editor?
    I'm guessing I could also use .net correct? But I am trying to keep it all with just control modification in LabVIEW if possible. Thanks.

    I'd use a multicolumn listbox and toggle it's visibility when the user clicks on the button.  I've attached an example:

  • How do I make my old user account perform like the new one?

    I have a macbook pro 13" 2008 with 8 gb of ram that has been showing stuttering in hd video lately (or maybe when i upgraded to lion). I created another user and it doesn't seem to suffer any stuttering. Perhaps it doesn't have weird things running the background like the 655mb kernal task I see in activity monitor. My question is, how do I make my old user account perform like the new one? I've tried to turn off things running the background, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Thanks!

    You can change the interface to look much like Firefox 3.6.x. See:

    *http://blog.fligtar.com/2011/01/16/how-to-customize-firefox-4s-ui/
    '''''Firefox 3 Theme for Firefox 4''''': https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-3-theme-for-firefox/
    *Add color home, back/forward and other buttons (like Firefox 3) to the Navigation Toolbar in place of the gray buttons in Firefox 4
    *See: http://ffaddons.game-point.net/ff3ff4/
    Also see:
    *http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar
    There are '''major''' changes to the user interface in Firefox 4.
    #The '''<u>MenuBar / Firefox button</u>'''. Turn on the Firefox 3 style Menu Bar on (Firefox button off) or turn the Menu Bar off (Firefox button on) using one of the following:
    #*HOLD down the ALT key while pressing the keyboard letters VTM. The Menu Bar will appear as in Firefox 3.6. This places a check mark next to "Menu Bar".
    #*Right-click in a blank space on a tool bar, click "Menu Bar" to check/un-checked (checked = display Menu Bar; un-checked = display Firefox button
    #*Using the Menu Bar: View > Toolbars, click Menu Bar to check/un-check (on/off)
    #*Using the Firefox button: click Firefox button > Options, click Menu Bar to check/un-check (on/off)
    #'''<u>Tabs on top</u>''' (above other toolbars). To change Tab Bar to a position below the toolbars as in prior versions, click "Tabs on top" to check/un-check (on/off)
    #*HOLD down the ALT key while pressing the keyboard letters VTT. This checks/un-checks (on/off) "Tabs on top".
    #*Right-click in a blank space on a tool bar, click "Tabs on top" to check/un-checked (checked = Tabs are on top; un-checked = Tabs are below toolbars)
    #*Using Menu Bar: View > Toolbars
    #*Using Firefox button: click Firefox button > Options
    #*Use one of the above procedures to again show "Tabs on top" (checked)
    #'''<u>The Status Bar has been eliminated and replaced by the Add-on Bar</u>'''. You can restore some of the prior Status Bar functionality on the new Add-on Bar by
    #*installing the Status-4-Evar extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
    #*Be sure the Add-on bar is diplayed at the bottom of the Firefox 4 window
    #**Ctrl+/ toggles the Add-on Bar displayed or not displayed
    #**Firefox button > Options '''''OR''''', if you are optionally using the Menu Bar instead of the Firefox button, View > Toolbars '''''OR''''' right-click in a blank space on a toolbar::
    #***if no check mark next to Add-on Bar, click Add-on bar to place a check mark.
    #***If Add-on bar has a check mark, it is already displayed
    #*then drag 3 widgets to the Add-on Bar from the Customize Toolbar window (the 3 widgets are: Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status). To open the Customize Toolbar window
    #**Using Menu Bar: click View > Toolbars > Customize
    #**Using Firefox button: click Firefox button, click small arrow to the right of Options, click Toolbar Layout
    #**Note: Instead of either of the above, you can do as in the past, right-click an empty space in the Navigation toolbar and choose Customize
    #*set options for Status-4-Evar:
    #**Menu Bar: Tools > Add-ons, click on Status4Ever, click Options, set options to your liking
    #**Firefox button: click Firefox button, click Add-ons, scroll down to Status-4-Evar, click Options, set options to your liking
    #Firefox 4.0 has a '''''combined''''' Go/Reload/Stop button that is positioned at the far right of the location bar.
    #*During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button. If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.
    #*You can middle-click that button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
    #*In Firefox 4.0 you can move the Stop/Reload button out of the location bar and put them wherever you want on the toolbar. You can also make them appear as separate buttons on the toolbar.
    #** Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move them out of the location bar.
    #** Swap the two buttons or move them to their previous position at the left of the location bar.
    #** If the order is "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    #** Swap the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

  • Creating a slideshow like the v3

    Hi, I'm kind of new to flash and I am trying to create a
    slideshow like the one in the link above. I have a few pictures
    laid out but I'm unsure on setting up the click on and stop
    actions. I assume I need to make the buttons function by applying
    some type of stop action and pop up. I have the files created but
    unsure on how to piece everything together.
    Please help,
    Thanks

    No.  The videos will play for their entire length.  Try trimming the video in iPhoto by playing it and use the gear icon to bring up the Trip feature:
    You'll get this window where you can select the portion of the video to use:
    When you're done you can "revert to original" like this:
    That may give you what you need for the slideshow.

    The orange Firefox button shows by default only in Windows Vista and Windows 7.
    You can turn the Firefox button on in XP:
    *Menu Bar checked = Menu Bar on, Firefox button off
    *Menu Bar un-checked = Menu Bar off, Firefox button on
    *Turn Menu Bar on/off, click Menu Bar to check/un-check by doing one of the following:
    **using the Menu Bar: View > Toolbars
    **using Firefox button: Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout
    **right-click an empty space (at the end of the tab bar)

  • In previous version, when typing the keyword "gmail" or "ebay" or "amazon" firefox went directly to the webpage, but in version 4 it stops at google. how do I get it to be like the old one?

    it was so convenient before, and how I got most people to convert to Firefox - just type in the keyword, like "ebay" or "hotmail" and firefox found the webpage for you.
    you say firefox 4 is faster, but now I get redirected to google first, which in version 3 only happened if Firefox wasn't sure of the right homepage.
    how do I get it to be like the old one? if not, I think I'm going back to version 3. which was a lot faster because of this.

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below
