Default UIPicker in UIWebView for html select drop down- too large font.

Hi everyone,
The default picker that is used for selecting options from html select tag (drop down) in a UIWebView is cutting off our data.
I could use labels if it were not in a web view, but can't work out how to adjust the picker used in web view.
The only way I can think is the detect selection using js, overide the picker with a custom picker and then send selection back to page. Seems complicated so i'm trying to find out if there is an easier/better way?
The data is quite long so I do need to reduce font size. As there are quite a lot of options the drop down much more suitable to radio buttons for instance.
I have noted the quick connect framework but seems like an overkill and this is an app that is already live so I don't really want to add a new framework just for an update.
Any advice?

Hi K T thanks for your reply
In the first example of real data that I have used, it is cut off in both orientations. Only one of the options by one character of so but this forces a '...' to be added in the middle and it to be cut off even more.
Ideally I would like to bring the font size down and make it two lines.
Cheers

  • Changing text in a selection drop down

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know how to change the text(not value) that is displayed in a single line selection drop down box from a javascript function.?
    ie.
    <select name="companyMenu" size="1" >
    <option value=" ">Want to change this text</option>
    </select>
    regards
    JK

    its ok, found the answer.
    simply place an id in the option tag and refer to the innerText.
    ie
    <select name="companyMenu" size="1" onchange=whatever(this.form);>
    <option id="commonText" value="">Want to change this text</option>
    and for the function
    function whatever(f) {
         commonText.innerText = "happy";
    which replaces "Want to change this text" with "happy"
    cheers

  • Multi-select drop-down

    Hi,
    I'm using Jdevelopre 11112 and JHS 11.1.1.2.29,
    I need to have a multi select Drop-down.
    is there a way to have multi-selection choise in drop-down?
    thanx in advance

    No, this is no standard JHeadstart functionality.
    You can built it manually in a generated page (ask JDeveloper forum for help if you don't know how to do this), and then use JHeadstart custom templates to keep your page generatable.

  • To develop cascading select drop down box from web service

    Hi,
    I have two select drop downs one is "STATE" and other is "CITY". I am fetching the values for state drop down from a web service method "return"(*a list is returned from that method*) . Now i have a method in a webservice which accepts a string type argument(state) which returns the cities corresponding to that state. I made another drop down from "return"( list is returned from that method) of this second method which gives me city.
    Now what i want to do is on selecting a state the webservice method should get executed passing "selected state" as a parameter to my web service function and that return will populate my second drop down list.
    Can partial trigger help me in this?
    If partial trigger is helpful,how will i pass an argument to my second method which is returning me cities?
    OR
    Is there some other way to do it?

  • Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason

    Hi,
    The Lenovo T500 battery stays on %100 for awhile then drops down to %99 for no reason. What's up with this and how do I fix this issue? My laptop is really confusing me. The green battery says it's totally charged %100 and the little AC adapter icon in the system tray says "%99 available (plugged in, not charging.")
    Thanks,
    Liz 

    Hello Liz,
    that is considered to be normal.
    It´s bettter for a Li-ion battery not to be charged fully, so the powermanager don´t load the whole time.
    That´s why the percentage could drop. But thats not a problem thats a feature.
    if your battery handling is set to automatic in powermanager then, eveythings is ok.
    Do you use your machine with AC plugged in the whole time?

  • How do I get back the functionality for the alphabetical drop down from my previous searches in the center Google search box of the Mozilla Firefox Start Page?

    In the afternoon of August 24 I lost a feature on my Mozilla Firefox Start Page and I cannot figure out how to get it back. It concerns the Google Search area in the MIDDLE of the page. Previously, when I would want to do a search, for example Amazon, I would type the letter 'A' and, because I had typed 'Amazon' in that Search box before, an alphabetical drop-down menu would come up with 'Amazon' in it. I could then click on that word without having to type the rest of it. That option is no longer working.
    I had done an Adobe Reader update that Friday morning, so I thought that might be why this happened,. I did a System Restore and took the system back to Tuesday, August 21. That did not help.
    I ran CCleaner and cleaned the Registry also. Interestingly enough, I found that right after I do that and then open a Mozilla Firefox Start Page, the alphabetical drop down function is back in the center Search bar for one time, one search. After that it is gone again. I go in and do just CCleaner (no Registry cleaning required) and the same thing happens...the functionality is there for one search only.
    I went in and made sure all my Add-ons/Plug-ins are up to date. I also ran a full system scan but no issues came up.
    I am computer illiterate, so please bear with me. I have no idea if any of the things I tried would have helped or not.
    I have Windows 7 and Firefox 15.0.1
    I appreciate any help you can provide.

    See also:
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember search and form history"
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Form+autocomplete
    The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.<br />
    Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.<br />
    If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".<br />

  • Linking a library to a list - filtering data per selected drop down / check box item

    Good day,
    I am rather new to SharePoint and have run into a dilemma. Is it possible to link a library to a list, then create a parent-child relationship between the the department (list) to document (library)? 
    Example - I have a library that contains 100+ documents, the library is filtered using groups/subgroups. 
    IT
     -> IT TX (30 docs)
     -> IT WI (10 docs)
    Biz Ops 
     -> Biz Ops WI (8 docs)
     -> Biz Ops CA (5 docs)
    In the list I created I have departments as a required field, and a dropdown tool that shows the 5 departments that contain items that need to be grouped together. (Biz Ops, IT, HR, Sales, and Compliance)
    I have linked the library of documents to the form (list), using "Lookup (information already on this site)". All the documents in the library appear in the selection box within the list. However is it possible to first select a department which
    then filters documents only tied to said department? So at the beginning of the list you choose the department you wish to browse the documents, then it filters out all documents not related to that department? 
    My apologies if this is long winded and confusing. Your help is most appreciative. 
    Cheers. 

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to filter the corresponding documents from a Document Library when you selected a department in a List.
    I recommend that you can follow the steps as below to implement it in your environment.
    1. Create a new Web Part Page and add the Document Library and the List web part into it.
    2. Click the List web part, click the current web part’s drop-down arrow, choose Connections, Send Row of Data To, and then choose the Document Library web part.
    3. Click the Document Library web part, choose the “All Items” view from the Selected View, click the current web part’s drop-down arrow, choose Connections, Get Filter Values From,
    and then choose the List web part.
    4. Open the Configure Connection – Webpage Dialog, choose the “Department” column from the Provider Field Name drop-down list and choose the “Group” column from the Consumer Field
    Name drop-down list.
    5. Click Apply, OK button, save the Web Part Page and test it in your environment.

  • Font Selection - Drop Down Menu Selection

    Hello All,
    I have a general question about the FONT selection in the menu bar in iBA that has been puzzling me.
    Sometimes when I select a font within a text box and move over to the Drop Down menu within iBA the default view is the top six most recently used fonts.
    At other times the font selection moves down the long list of fonts alphabetically — say to Helvetica.
    I have being playing around with the key combination keys to see if holding command key or a combination will change this.
    By holding down the ALT / Option key turns the FONT PREVIEW view OFF so the menu is more compressed and maybe faster to load.
    Any thoughts on this would be great. I would really like to be able to jump to my top six recently used fonts by holding down a hot key rather than at random times as it seems to me right now.
    Any view?
    Regards,
    Nigel
    TOP SIX MOST RECENT FONTS
    ALL THEY WAY DOWN THE LIST

    I downloaded it again and reinstalled it, restarted my pc, restarted illustrator, and it still didn't work - but, with my type selected, I went to Type -> Find Font and from there I managed to change it into aurulent_sans_mono ok. but even after that I still can't select it in the other ways. It's probably just a bug but at least I've found a way round it.

  • How to select drop down based on country selected in one field

    Dear Experts,
    I am facing a problem,
    I have a table in webdynpro, where there are two columns namely Country and its Subtype.
    here both the fields are drop down by key type.
    when i am selecting Country field from drop down. I am getting its subtype correctly populated in other column.
    But when i am selecting the country in next row, It is removing the subtype text of 1st row and giving its code.
    Also Now In Column Subtype, It is Showing the dropdown related to the current selected country.
    Kindly help.
    Regards
    Sushil

    Hi Sushil,
    I guess the value for subtype is depending on the country value, which is fetch from the static value( Usually lead selected value). To avoid this we can either set the current row as lead selected row before populating subtype value or with the following code which will give the element value for the row which is selected rather than the lead selected row and then pass the value for fetching country type.
    data: lr_element type ref to if_wd_context_element.

    i dont know where i am making mistake and i observered one behavoir that if i have less options it is working but not with many why like that , please help me in this
    Thanks

    Seems to me your conditionals should look something like this:
    <option value="Division"<cfif getData.council is "Division"> selected="selected"</cfif>>Division</option>
    <option value="Facility"<cfif getData.council is "Facility"> selected="selected"</cfif>>Facility</option>
    Your condition is the same for every option, and would likely never evaluate to true:
    <cfif council IS "#getdata.council#"> selected</cfif>
    getData.council will be "Division" or "Facility" or "District D" or ...
    ... but it would never be "council".
    HTH.

  • Using the same field on a form for multiple menu/drop down list

    I have a form that tracks people that attend orientations.  It is possible for an Attendee to attend the same orientation up to three times.
    In using the Update record wizard, I have two recordsets, rsAttendees and rsOrientation from two separate tables.
    I want to be able to use the rsOrientation to create a drop down list, but I want to use that same recordset field as the source for the dropdown 3 times on the same record.
    There are 3 fields on the Attendee form:
    Orientation1, Orientation2, and Orientation3.
    Using the wizard, I set each up as a Menu, then select the rsOrientation, Orientation.Date as the source for all 3. 
    The problem is that only the Orientation1 field is populated.  Orientation2 and Orientation3 dropdowns are blank.
    Name:________________________
    Orientation1: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one works fine
    Orientation2: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
    Orientation3: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
    Do I need to reset the rs somehow?

    Very possible. You haven't mentioned what server model you are using.
