Full Stop

How can I stop the ipad putting a full stop at the end of a sentence when I want to put two or three spaces in then more text?
If I wait a good few seconds before I space, it does not put them in.
I do not want to have to wait so long, there has to be a way ??????
Many thanks

Bullet and Full Stop formatting in right to left languages?

I am copying and pasting text from an arabic document to Captivate 7. This has been translated for us as I don't speak the language. The formatting in Word is perfect, bullets appear on the right, full stops appear on the left.
When it pastes into Captivate, the text is rendered perfectly, but the bullets want to go to the left and the full stops want to go to the right.
Any help or advice? Thanks!

Spacing after full stop

Hi
My printer is complaining that my justified text makes it look like there is no space after a full stop. In some cases, it does appear this way.
Is there any way to set a minimum or uniform amount of space after each full stop, within justified text? I have searching this forum + google but did not find an answer.
Many thanks..

Thanks for the reply Jacob,
The font is Myriad Pro, and the the app is InDesign cs3.
Actually before reading your reply I decided to you what you suggested, I went through and just added a space where there appeared to be none. This took a few minutes but the result looks fine.
I hadn't considered that it might be a problem with the font - I was surprised that InDesign wouldn't have a control in place to make sure there was proper spacing after a full stop, in justified text, but it makes sense that it could be an anomaly with the Myriad Pro font.
Cheers

Inserting white space after comma, full stop, etc...

Hello,
I have a text file. I want to add a blank space after all commas, full stops, exclamation marks and etc in that file.
How can I do that?

I hope its helpful . Code examples on that site are largely flawed in the extreme. What's worse, they don't even respond to feedback or implement suggested improvements.

HT5449 How do I get Dictation to type a full-stop instead of the word "period"?

How do I get Dictation to type punctuation? The support article says that you just have to speak it in order for it to appear but I just get one long run-on sentence with the word "period" many times in the middle.

Try the alternatives: "point," "dot," and/or "full stop." Do any of these options produce a period for you? And, as a different punctuation test, does something such as "comma" work for you?

Capitalize the first letter after full stop.

Since I m not a Java Programmer, my speciality is PERL. I m looking
for a little support from any of the Javascripts Gurus here. Its
going to take 5 or less minutes for you to solve this issue.
I have a textbox and I want when users are typing in it. The word
after full stop (.) will be capitalized just like MS-Word. I mean
the begining of the new sentence with capital letter, users don't
have to push "shift" button to capitalize the first letter after
every full stop .
thanks for your help.
Any Ideas,
Zeshan.

Can pages be set to full stop with a double space tap

Hi,
Does anyone know if you can set pages (or use an app) to place a full spot after a double space bar tap?
Thanks

In text replacement (System Preferences > Keyboard > Text), one cannot use a leading space in the Replace column, thus eliminating double-space as a character replacement combination. Depending on the internationality of your keyboard, there may be alternative tandem characters that when configured in the text replacement facility — will offer a full-stop as replacement.
I do not use third-party tools for text or keyboard mapping, so cannot comment on that viability for your goal.

"Full Stop" in Mail--Preferences--Rules?

I was going through my preferences and I saw this rule named "Full Stop"…but I don't know where it came from (I have another computer and it doesn't have it). I looked it up online but couldn't really find anything, which I thought was odd.
Can anyone tell where this comes from? I disabled it, but haven't deleted it yet. Thanks

I don't think I ever imported a mail account into this computer, or copied any preferences or directories relating to Mail into it (I added a laptop last year and I did synchronize the two machines but as I said the rule doesn't appear in the laptop).
It reads as follows:
Description: Full Stop
If 'any' of the following conditions are met:
'Every Message'
Perform the following actions:
'Stop evaluating rules'
That's it (not part of the rule

Arabic full stop appears in front

Hi I use CS InDesign 6. With world ready paragrapher composer, I can copy and paste Arabic text in CS6. But the full stop always appears in front of the last line. Not at the end. Any idea how to fix it?
It's a pain to use a separate text box and put full stop in the right place manually.

There are a variety of ways to make this work for you. I am assuming that you are using English-language ID and don't even know that there is an entirely separate Middle East Edition that gives you complete typographical control over right-to-left languages. The World-Ready Composer lets the letters of individual words compose correctly, but you need to turn on right-to-left paragraph direction - and there are no controls for same in non-ME editions of InDesign.
So, unless you decide to go out and buy a whole separate license for the ME edition, your options are:
1) Buy a plugin that exposes the RTL type controls. I always recommend World Tools from in-tools.com, because it exposes stuff in the ME edition as well as the CJK edition (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) in generic English InDesign. This is the best price-performance ratio, I think, for money spent to typographical control gained.
2) Use a script or a template that already has those settings for right-to-left paragraph flow activated. If you search Google for "world-ready paragraph composer" you can find a few of those. I don't have a link on hand. They're out there, and they're free, but if you need to do something fancy (hanging indents, kashidas, LTR Arabic numerals for phone numbers and Hindi numerals for everything else, lots of bilingual sentences with frequent direction flow changes, and so on) you probably need either the ME edition or a plugin. You can do it with freely available character styles (or you can write 'em yourself if you know some Javascript) but I have found that to be a time-consuming way to work.
3) But if all you need is one paragraph of legible Arabic... then you can start a new text frame, go to the Type menu, and hold down control and choose "Fill with Placeholder Text" and, instead of getting lorem ipsum, you'll get a dropdown menu that will let you pick fake text in a variety of scripts. If you pick Arabic, you'll get correctly flowing Arabic text with the right paragraph direction applied.

Full stop 'double tap' not working!!!

Can anyone help? All of a sudden, when writing a text or email on my 3gs (4.3.1) I can no longer use the 'double tap space bar' to insert a full stop and a space.
I have checked the keyboard settings, turned the hone off and back on AND done a hard reset with no success.
Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks

Are these issue in the forums here, only?
This forum itself (Jive forum software) has specific issues like what you've described (at least double capital at beginning of sentences), especially with iDevies (iPad, iPhone, etc) These issues (at least the double caps) are specific to this forum only.
Are you having these issues elsewhere, besides in this forum? If it's only in this forum, there's nothing that can be done on your end. the forum host have been notified of the issues countless times. It's up to them to make the corrections (which have not been corrected for a long time).

Full stop & comma error in amount

Hi experts, still got the issue after checking the relevant info in forum, help SAP. Pls help solve asap. Many thx.
e.g., the correct amount should be 10,000.00 USD but the output shows 10.000,00 USD. The places of full stop & comma is exchanged wrongly. The error only occurs in output. The settings in SU3 is correct as well as the amount in order.

Hi Cathy,
If the SU3 settings are correct and it coming only in output means it may be because of BUG in the output program so you ask technical cosultant(ABAPer) to debug the output program then he may fix the issue.
I hope it will help you
Regards,

Full Stop Replaced with UnderScore when downloading

I've been having an issue download files from IE9.
1. Any file i download has the full stop replaced with an underscore before the file extension.
2. Some downloads try downloading a PHP file instead of th requested file.
3. The Download prompt bar remains on the screen, until i click Open or Save. Cancel does not remove the download bar.
4. The first attempt always fails and reports that the file couldn't be downloaded and i have to click retry for every file.
I have tried removing and re-installing IE and running with Add-ons disabled but still having the same issue.
Any help, suggestions or solutions would be appreciated.

I still think diagnosis may be required but it appears that a workaround has been found.
In another thread a safe mode boot was found to be a workaround, doubling my conviction that diagnosis would be required.

FWIW my guess for that one would be the user's AV package. <eg>
In fact, perhaps that interferer would step out of the way when Protected Mode is unchecked? Etc.
Good luck

Full stop sign on Sony Aino

When doing any writing on my Aino and needing a full stop symbol, I press button 1 where the common symbols are available in sequence. On my other phones the first one up was always the full-stop followed by the comma in second place. However on this phone it always gives me the '&' symbol first which is really annoying as I rarely need it and it delays me getting to the full-stop. Is there any way I change permanently change the sequence please? Many thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I can confirm this is correct, you are unable to change the sequence the symbols appear in.
