Creating a textfield with mask.

I want to create a textfield that can enter string value, number and date.. Only one texfield that when I choose a date it will become a date picker and be able to save in the database?

The last time I did this I put each glossary term on its own (much smaller) page, then created a link to return to previous view that covered the entire page so no matter where they clicked they would go back to where they came from. Or you could create a button that jumps to previous view. Of course this only works when each glossary term is linked just once. If the same term is used on different pages you link them all to the glossary but the link on the glossary page will only return to the first instance.

Crash on Tweening a TextField with a mask AS3 CS3

I have yet to hunt down exactly what it is about this
situation that makes it crash, but when I tween the position of a
TextField that has a mask, as soon as I close the movie window the
program crashes, whether it be in the Flash (CS3) IDE or in a
browser.
In detail: I have a movie where I'm creating 1000 instances
of a movieclip (little dots) and when the mouse rolls over one i
instantiate another movieclip, call it box. I then dynamically
create a textfield inside the box and give it a mask (a generated
sprite that is just a rectangle half the width of the box, which is
added to the box's display list). Finally, I tween the x position
of the TextField, giving the effect of the text sliding out from
the edge of the box. When I test the movie in Flash this works fine
but as soon as I close the window Flash crashes, in a browser
window when I close the window I get the spinning beach ball of
death. If I dont add a mask to the TextField, I dont have this
problem at all. I will test this on a PC tomorrow, but as of yet
can only confirm on a Mac.
Has anyone ever encountered something like this?
I dont have the code in front of me, but it is really what
youd imagine, along the lines of (NOTE: this is not my exact
code):

I have the same problem in version CS6. I assume Adobe hasn't done anything about it?

I understand that the add row button is currently doing a submit.
To not submit the page you need a dynamic action on the page.
Does the javascript function addRow do what you want?
Otherwise have a look at the following two threads Add row in manual tabular form using dynamic action and Accessing Tabular Form & Add Elements to Collection without Page Submit.
You're process could be something like:
Add the new values to the collection using the idea's in the second thread and at the same time add the new row.
And as second action refresh your tabular form.
If you get stuck set up what you have done on apex.oracle.com using the tables from the demo application.

Create 10 different TEXTFIELDS with a FOR statement

Hello everybody, I,ve been trying to create 10 different
TEXTFIELDS with a FOR statement, in order to apply different
properties to each one. First I tried this code:

Hi - your first one is closer; the problem is that you are

Transparent TextField with Synth Look and Feel

I am trying to use synth to implement a textfield with a transparent background, and having some problems with it. I can see my panel and the transparent field fine enough in the beginning, but when the text in the field changes, it writes right over the previous text and becomes a pile of unreadable white marks. I've experimented with varying degrees of transparency, but you can still see the old field underneath slightly. Does anyone have any suggestions? My code is below.
Thanks.
synth.xml
<synth>

<style id="panelStyle">
    <state>
        <imagePainter method="panelBackground" path="../../../lafImages/papyrus_bkgd.gif" sourceInsets="10 15 10 15"/>
    </state>
</style>
<bind style="panelStyle" type="name" key="PAPYRUS_PANEL"/>

<style id="textFieldStyle">
    <font name="Kudasai" size="12"/>
    <state>
        <color type="TEXT_FOREGROUND" value="#FFFFFF"/>
        
        <color type="BACKGROUND" value="#00000000"/>

my tester
class SynthTester {
    private JTextField field;
    public SynthTester(){
        initLookAndFeel();
        JFrame main = new JFrame();
        JPanel panel = new JPanel();
        panel.setName("PAPYRUS_PANEL");
        field = new JTextField(3);
        field.setText("0");
        panel.add(field);
        JButton button = new JButton("+");
        button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                int val;
                try {
                    val = Integer.parseInt(field.getText());
                } catch( Exception ex ) {

                val++;

As its name implies, an imagePainter element creates a SynthPainter that paints from an image. For example:
<synth>
<style id="example">
<state>
<color value="white" type="BACKGROUND"/>
</state>
<imagePainter method="panelBackground" path="background.png"
sourceInsets="5 6 6 7" paintCenter="false"/>
<insets top="5" bottom="6" right="7" left="6"/>
</style>
<bind style="example" type="region" key="Panel"/>
</synth>

Is it possible to export interactive textfields with data?

Hey guys,
I have following problem. I´m creating our variable price list for our customers. "variable" means an interactive pdf for our customers where they can edit the prices, product discription etc.
I can paginate our catalogue with "Easy Catalogue" including all interactive textfields. It looks like this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kn81v9db69dx0a7/screenshot_pagination_incl_interactive_textfield s.png?dl=0
The problem now is, when I export it as an interactive pdf, the data of the textfields will not be exported -> Dropbox - screenshot_exported_interactive_form.png
it`s just blank
Does anybody have a solution for this problem. I need the fields to be preset with the data!
Is it generally possible to export interactive textfields with data?
Any idea is appreciated!
cheers from Austria,
Chris

I´m using Easy Catalog http://www.65bit.com/software/easycatalog/
But I think it has something to do with indesign interactive pdf export properties.
What I also tried:
Converted an ordinary textfield with text into an interactive textfield -> then exported as an interactive pdf -> also blank editable field!

Draw a cloud shape. Fill it with white and add a black inner
glow.
Position the cloud shape over the photo. Press Shift and
select both the
cloud shape and the image. Choose Modify > Mask > Group
as Mask.

How to make a one-color fill images with masks in documents from our multiple layers ?

Hello everyone!
I`m to open PSD document with same layers. I need to:
1. Save the jpg file (preview) in a certain place
2. All layers with masks to make one-color fill instead of images with masks.
Thanks
This is way ?
var theLayers = collectLayers(app.activeDocument, []);
alert (theLayers.join("\n"));
function collectLayers (theParent, allLayers) {//---------------------------------------------------
if (!allLayers) {var allLayers = new Array}
   else {};
   for (var m = theParent.layers.length - 1; m >= 0;m--) {
      var theLayer = theParent.layers[m];
      if (theLayer.typename == "ArtLayer") {
           var bar = new Array;
           bar = theLayer.bounds
           l0= Math.abs(this.app.activeDocument.width - theLayer.bounds[2] - theLayer.bounds[0]);
           l1= Math.abs(this.app.activeDocument.height -theLayer.bounds[3] - theLayer.bounds[1]);
            if((l0+l1)>0) { // layer mask is set
                // delete this layer
                //create new layer
                //create new mask from array bar
                //fill selection
            allLayers.push(theLayer);
   return allLayers

I may not quite follow.
Would you mind posting an example (a screenshot with the Layers Panel visible for example) and an overview of the resulting images you want to produce?

Issues with Textfield with Autocomplete

Working with Masks in CS4 (Windows)

I am working with Masks in CS 4, and am using the Paintbrush to create a mask of several parts of my picture. How do I set up my software so that the part I am masking shows up on screen as I paint it, instead of just in the Mask box on the adjustment layer?

Not sure I understand your issue, but the typical process if you are using an adjustment layer, which appears with it own mask, is as follows:
Open your mage and this appears as your background layer. Click on your desired adjustment (say, hue/saturation as an example) and and make any changes you desire. The image on screen will reflect these changes over the entirety of the image. Now select your brush tool and set its characteristics, make sure the foreground color is set to black, make sure that the adjustment layer is selected (not the background layer) in the layers palette and make sure the mask is selected in the adjustment layer by clicking on the mask thumbnail. Using your brush paint in the areas you want to protect from the adjustment. The painted areas will revert to their original hue/saturation appearance and the corresponding areas will turn black in the mask thumbnail.
Hope this helps.

Password textfield with no display

Hi,
I have to design a textfield for password in such a way that it doesn't show anything when the user types the password (similar to solaris login screen). I was trying with setEchoChar method but it seems that it doesnt work for blank string (""). Any suggestions..?
Thanks
Akhil

The cheapest way not to display text is to set the Foreground Color to
the Background Color.
TextField passField = new TextField();
passField.setBackground(Color.white); //default
passField.setForeground(Color.white);This however is not a good solution, because as soon as you select the text it's visible.
But, in conjunction with a KeyListener it could be a cleaner solution:
'A global to hold the Value
String passValue=new String("");
'Create the TextField
TextField passField=new TextField;
passField.setBackground(Color.black);
passField.setForeground(Color.black);
passField.addKeyListener(new PasswordKeyListener());
'Internal class
class PasswordKeyListener implements KeyListener {
    public void keyPressed(KeyEvent ke) {
      passField.setText("");
    public void keyReleased(KeyEvent ke) {
      passField.setText("");
    public void keyTyped(KeyEvent ke) {
      passField.setText("");
      passValue+=ke.getKeyChar();
      System.out.println(passValue);
}

Need help with masking a time-lapse animation

Hi all,
I'm working on a time-lapse project where I have taken 240 shots of a highway heading into my city, and have erased the cars from the shot, creating the look of an "empty city". This will be one of many sequences like this.
I got the highway background plate perfect, no cars, and I threw that into my AE comp (CS6), along with the 240 images as a JPEG sequence. I've layered the background plate on top of the image sequence and used a mask to "hide" the cars from the highway.
The problem is, some of the cars are taller than the roadway (trucks, busses, etc), so they push into the upper part of the frame where the motion is supposed to happen. If I extend the mask upward, you can see a literal bisection between the still plate and the animated JPEGs. If I just move the mask path to hide cars as they go by, the moving mask becomes VERY obvious in the exported QuickTime.
I've attached a still of my setup and a short video for explanation. If anyone can help me salvage this shot, I'd be very grateful. I do NOT want to have to erase out the tops of the cars in every photo I took

Dave LaRonde wrote:
A lot of planning went into those shots.
You'll note that in many of them, the things that move -- clouds in the sky, for example -- can easily be masked, and they were shot time-lapse over a short duration of time. In other shots, the sun wasn't an issue: it was cloudy or it was night. Others were assembled shooting in real-time with masking, and again, changing light angles would not have been an issue.
There are a lot of different techniques used in those things. It's interesting to note that at this web site, the photographer/editor/VFX practitioner only mentions some of them: particularly the use of clamps instead of tripods. He doesn't give away many of his tricks.
I presume you've doped out how the zooms, pans and tilts were done.
Easily masked is I think where I got tripped up. In the Golden Gate shot, for example, it's pretty much a straigh mask up the center of the shot. In mine, there are curves with lots of buildings right next to the highway. Poor choice of location, perhaps.
Yes, Ross definitely doesn't share a lot of how-to, mainly just erasing objects and layering in After Effects. How he deals with problems/challenges isn't covered, so that's my learning curve.
The zooms are easy, you can do that in post if you shoot high enough resolution. The pans were done on a pocket dolly using a remote device that automatically tracked the camera across the scene over time. Couple hundred bucks to rent one, but too advanced for me at this point. I'm more concerned with getting stable, usable shots.

Saving with Masks in tact

Saving with Masks in tact
Sorry for this second post today but I guess the synapses are not firing great today.
- I am using CS4 on a PC
- I have a photo I shot in RAW and converted to a jpg through Image Processor in Bridge.
- I did some masking and saved it as a psd. I thought I had dome this before so I could save my work, maybe close out, and re-open the file later to work on it some more.
- Here is the dilemma – the mask isn’t saving. – If I initially save the file as a psd, do some work on it and go to “SAVE” that option is not available. I tried saving as other file formats but no cigar.
- So, there must be some little thing I need to do.
- The Mode is 8 bit RGB Color.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Gener7
Thanks for your input. I did what you suggested and noticed changes on my desktop.
I reopened the jpg file, created a partial mask (for testing purposes) and save the file as a psd. Once again, in the SAVE AS dialog box the only “live” checkbox in the Save Options panel was “As A Copy.”
The jpg file I am working on is the only layer. I mention this because I don’t think this is a problem, but I could be wrong. Image is still 8 bit RGB mode.
Since I had batched process the RAW images to jpg I even went back in Bridge, opened the test photo in Camera RAW saved as a jpg (individually, not as a batch) but still the same result.
I’m not giving up but it is a bit frustrating…
Thanks again for everyone’s help.

Create Instruction Manual with same style, different languages?

How to create a book with graphs and tables (instruction manual) in one language and create afterwards many different linked copies where just the language should be manually changed? While editing the original (graphs etc..) the copies now should change the same way except the language.
Best regards,
andreas

Layers seems okay, but I'm not sure to work practical on this in fact the book has 400 pages?
So if I unterstand you correctly, you meant that I should create one layer for every language and within e.g. Layer EN I will create every english textfield and so on.
I'm just not sure how to handle the different size/length of the different languages within the same document, to don't destroy formatting.
For example width of tablecolums: FR (language) wording is longer than EN wording.
For one language I need one extra line at the end of one passage..
best regards!
