Empty Spotlight field after done searching?

Hi, so I've been having this trouble.
Spotlight seems to continue searching even after I have finished searching. For example, I type in "Photo" then click on Photo Booth. After clicking, Spotlight continues to search, so I have to manually clear the Spotlight field so that it would stop searching. I even hear the hard drive being busy due to Spotlight so I know this can't be good for battery life. Is there a way to automatically clear the Spotlight field when you are done?

AFAICT, clicking once on an item that shows up in the search window causes that item to launch (if using the CMD+spacebar window) and closes the search window. If you're using CMD+F and click on a return from a search, it just highlights. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by continuing to search or wanting the search field to empty. If the search field emptied, all your search results would go away.

Empty System Fields after error creates a short dump

Hello!
Could someone please help me?
After calling a function, I catch errors with sy-subrc NE 0.
Handling this error the "normal" way throws a short dump (I marked the row bold), because all the system fields are empty!
Could someone please give me a hint, how to handle this situation?
Many thanx in advance!
Perhaps some code:
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_CONFIRM'
EXPORTING
    is_bdnum      = is_bed-bdnum
TABLES
    et_return     = lt_return
EXCEPTIONS
    error_occured = 1
    lock_error    = 2
OTHERS        = 3.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
I get a short dump with this:

Hi,
You need to capture the message like this way
IF sy-subrc eq 1.
   message e999(your mesage class) with 'Error Occured'.
endif.
IF sy-subrc eq 2.
   message e999(your mesage class) with 'Lock error'.
endif.
IF sy-subrc eq 3.
   message e999(your mesage class) with 'Other Errors'.
endif.

Clear/empty entry of field after validation pattern message

Can anyone help me please with the following:
Now when user fills a field a validation pattern message shows when entry is not according to validation. BUT...the entry remains.
Do you know how to remove the entry from the field after clicking OK on the validation pattern message box?

I don't know how to do that, but I think it would be user abuse to clear out the field. If I mistype a date or an SSN for example, I don't want to have to type it all over again, just correct my mistake.

Bug after adding fields in advanced search mode of af:query

We are migrating from JDeveloper 11.1.1.6 to 11.1.1.7.
I noticed the following issue:
In a page with search criteria (based on a view object), when the user adds an additional field in advanced search mode and clicks on a full submit button in the page, the following browser popup appears:
"This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave - data you have entered may not be saved."
This was logged as a bug in Oracle Support but we have not been able to find a workaround yet.
This is the only issue currently blocking us from migrating to 11.1.1.7. Has anyone else faced this issue? Any ideas on how we can bypass this behavior?
Thank you,
Gabriel.

Unfortunately, the latest update from Oracle Support was that they no longer consider this a bug!
SR 3-7706485141: Additional Fields in af:query problem - JDeveloper 11.1.1.7
Bug 17346704 - ADDING FIELD TO AF:QUERY ADVANCED SEARCH CAUSES SPURIOUS WARNING DIALOG POPUP
1. I cannot understand how something that blocks user actions and cannot be bypassed in any way could be considered "acceptable behavior".
2. I also do not understand how a Bug can be lodged and then have its status changed to "Not a Bug".
3. Even if we were to ignore this issue and convince our customers that they should be delayed by meaningless popups while working (which we cannot), their is still another issue that makes this functionality dysfunctional. When the user clicks on "Stay on Page" the popup closes and the page freezes and becomes unresponsive.
Off course this is another issue and a different SR should open, but I think it shows that something is going very wrong with this functionality.
I wonder if anyone else is considering using JDeveloper 11.1.1.7.0 in a production system.

How to hide fields in BP search tab of CIC Winclient ????

Hi All,
      In IC winclient my requirement was to hide the IBase fields from BP search tab. I have done that by changing the html file in SMW0 and assigning it in profiles for search strategies.
But, now when I search for BP in CIC0 it doesnt get searched. I mean after search, the result fields dont get filled with any data. If I revert my changes everything works properly.
Are there any other changes required to be done ????
Am I missing some step(s) in between ??
Any suggestions would be of great help !!!!
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Anirban,
       That is exactly the code I have deleted.
I have carried out the following steps :-
1) Copied HTML obj. - CRM_CIC_EMP_SEARCH to ZASH_BPSEARCH. Deleted exactly the code you've specified.
2) In define profiles for search strategies
- Copied ISM_BPSEARCH to ZASH_BPSEARCH
- Copied CRM_ISM_SUBCREATE2 to ZASH_CRM_ISM_SUBCREATE2
- In search attributes->General tab-> Changed HTML for BP Search to ZASH_BPSEARCH.
3) In Customer specific system modi->Define customer specific search control-> Copied the following entries
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     DESCR     X
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     DEVICEID     X
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     GUID_COMPC
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     IBASE
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     INSTANCE     X
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     OBJECT_FAMILY     X
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     OBJECT_ID     X
O_ISM_BPSEARCH     CCMIBCOMPFIELDS     PRODUCT_ID     X
and changed O_ISM_BPSEARCH to ZASH_BPSEARCH and removed the X flag from all entries
4) In define IC winclient profile
CONTACT_SEARCH_CONFIGURATION = ZASH_BPSEARCH

Clearing text field after query

I have seen alot of old post on this but no answers, I am wondering if anyone knows how to accomplish clearing a text field after a query has been executed?
Example:
User types a query in the search field, clicks submit then the query is returned and the search field is empty again ready for the next query.

I tried that and I was getting "(null)" in the value of the column I queried.
This is what I came up with and it seems to be working. In the Page Definition click Edit Attributes and add this line to the On Load section:
onload="html_GetElement('PX_SEARCH').value=''; html_GetElement('PX_SEARCH').focus()"That will clear the field and focus the cursor in the same field so its ready for another query.

Error Every Single Time I Buy a Book: "Empty text field detected in book"

I have the latest greatest Aperture and it STILL has NO WAY to tab through all text boxes so that I can find the offending "empty" text fields -- I see one other user had this issue in 2007 (without any resolution) and the problem STILL exists to this day.
I don't know exactly how we do it but I'd sure like to find those empty text fields and skip that warning with every book purchase.
Don't tell me about the search HUD because that apparently ignores all text boxes.
Okay, that's it for my rant.

I have it happen too, and, with you, think that Aperture's software developers surely can let you know, at least, what page that offending "Empty Text Field" is on. The value of it (I'm presuming here) is that they're alerting you to the possibility you may have overlooked or forgotten to put an entry in; that said, if it's empty and you can't see it, it also won't appear in the finished book so it's not really a problem that will result in a badly appearing page.

A reproducible Spotlight problem after installing CS6

So, I am able to reproduce the following bug every single time I try it and I'm wondering if anybody else can do the same:   Installing CS6 Design and Web Premium renders Spotlight useless on new documents copied to the computer.   A rebuild of the Spotlight index is required post-installation to fix the problem.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Start with a clean install of Mac OSX 10.8.2 -- install any updates via Software Update.
2. Install Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium -- the entire suite.   After the installation is done, run one of the apps to update everything CS6 related
3. After the installation is done, connect to a file server and copy some documents (Word, PDF, etc) to a folder on the desktop of the Mac
4.) Open the Folder and do a "find" for some content within the files (this would be using the built-in Spotlight feature of Mac OSX for content searching.)
Results:   NOTHING IS FOUND.
Expected results: results should be found from the contents of the files within the folder on the desktop.
Comments:
If I do all the above *without installing CS6* -- then Spotlight works to content search the files as expected.
If I do all the above (with the failed results), then rebuild the spotlight index -- then Spotlight appears to work.
However, I should not have to rebuild the Spotlight index after installing the CS6 Suite, so it's not clear to me why the installation of the CS6 Suite is "breaking" Spotlight.
I am able to reproduce this consistently.   We are in the process on Campus of trying to deploy a master image on thousands of Macintoshes here and I would like to open a dialog with somebody from Adobe about this problem to see if we can figure out what the core problem is here.

Only show certain fields after a date has passed

How would I set a recordset to only show certain fields after
a date has
passed?
For example:
I have a list of classified adverts some which include an
image which the
client pays extra for. After a certain time period, say, 1
year,
would it be possible to use some kind of IF statement (or
something) to no
longer show the image?
Thanks

Adding custom fields to Embedded Search

Hi All,
I have read the post [here|How to add custom fields to Embedded Search; about adding custom fields to Embedded Search. I am looking to add Employee Subgroup for use in Talent Management (specifically the STVN SuccessionPlanning component) and wanted to know if anyone can expand on the instructions in the link to add this field.
It appears to be part of the HRTMC_PERSON search object connector already and while I've done some IMG configuration the field is showing in SuccessionPlanning, but not displaying any data.
Additionally, I'd be interested in any tips to add information that is not from PA0002 should it be required in the future.
Many thanks,
Luke

Hi Luke,
I am assuming here that your search request fields are based on HRTCM_CENTRALPERSON search template. To enable your search to work on employee subgroup please do the following
1) Check if the HRTMC_PERSON Template extracts the data from Infotype 0001 via SPRO node 'Define Search Models and Change Pointer' Extraction Class is 'CL_HRTMC_SEARCH_READ_PA_INFTY'.
2) Via ESH_COCKPIT, goto Template Modeler and select your custom Software Component and press Edit. Goto roadmap step 5 - Define Requests - where all search request fields are defined. Its using these fields Talent search works.
3) Select the search request e.g. 'SAP_TALENT_NAKISA', it would then show list searchable attributes in below table. Using 'Add' button select path for PERSK so that it can searched.
It would look like this once selected
OBJID(REL_CP_P)->HRTMC_REL_CP_P_209.REL_CP_P(REL_CP)->HRTMC_PERSON.OBJID->HRTMC_PERSON.ORG_ASSIGNMENT
4) In step SPRO 'Define Search Requests and Search Field Names' , define Employee subgroup field with AliasSearchField = PERSK since thats what is defined in roadmap step 5.
Hope it helps!

Ricky Shah

I have done adjusting of the POWL by adding the custom field in the /SAPSRM/S_POWL_RESULT_CTR and /SAPSRM/S_SEARCH_RESULT_CTR.

Creating an empty signature field in Acrobat Pro X

I want to make an empty signature field in Acrobat Pro X, so that Acrobat Reader users can later sign it. I know how to enable that last part ("extended PDF Reader"), but don't know how to make an empty field.

Is a blank signature field what I need to create if I want my document to be signed by someone else? I am just the editor of the document. I will not officially sign the document. The signature will come from a managment postion. Everytime I try to create a blank signature field though Adobe wants to sign the document with my personal signature.

Empty text field warning

I want to have a book printed from Aperture 1.5.4, but when I press the 'Buy Book' button, a dialog pops up:
"*Empty text field detected in book*
The book you are about to order contains an empty text field.
How do you wish to proceed? Cancel/Continue"
That's all very nice, to give me a warning like that, but how on earth am I going to find one invisible text field in a 50-page book full of colour photos??
Does anyone have a hint? How problematic is it to leave the text field in? Common sense dictates that an empty text field should not be visible in the printed book either, but knowing Apple's fickleness in book matters... can I be sure? I can generate and check the PDF of course, but I don't know if that's sufficient proof.
Thanks!

hi, prauz
sounds like there is a text box (unfilled) and you haven't typed nor pasted text into it.
it's not that the text field is invisible, it's there yet to be selected and filled in with your information. so it is visible. have another looksie at it, look for the default letters or "Title Information Here"...

How do I get History to show entries that have an empty Name field?

I've noticed that if you go History/Show All History , it doesn't show entries with an empty Name field. If I enter part of the location URL in the "Search History" box (such as a Goggle search) the entries are there (with a Visit Date from yesterday), but if I then click on the Yesterday category, these entries are not shown. I'd expect the "Yesterday" category to show *everything* I visited yesterday.

Thanks @ComputerWhiz - and apologies for the delay in responding.
I disabled Googlebar Lite, and then checked Show All History. I found that things were unchanged: I could search for an item and it would appear, but if I select all items from "this month", those items with a blank name field still didn't show up.
Even if creating an entry with a blank name is not "good practice", I'd argue that Show All History should do just that in all cases, not just when a search term thows up a match.
I'm relieved that it's not Googlebar Lite interferring with the History display, though. Its word seach buttons (that disappeared when Google Toolbar for Firefox was withdrawn) are an essential part of using search, IMO...

F4 Help on Date Field after ALV is generated

Hi all,
Now this might sound very simple question, but Im having some difficulty in this.
My idea is to have an F4 on a date field after the ALV Grid report is executed. From the forum search, Ive got such answers as
l_fieldcat-edit         = 'X'.
l_fieldcat-F4AVAILABL = 'X'.
Now the problem with this is that Im getting an error saying:
The data object "l_fieldcat does not have a component called "F4AVAILABL".
And then I tried this:
l_fieldcat-fieldname    = 'DDATE'.
l_fieldcat-ref_tabname = 'ZCST001'.
Now at the report output when I press F4 on the date field it gives me a dump saying:
Field symbol has not yet been assigned.
Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "CL_GUI_ALV_GRID===============CP" had to be terminated because it has come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
So Im kinda stuck now. Appreciate your suggestions.
PS: Im on ECC6.
PPS:The intended F4 on field is a custom field in a custom table.
