Highlighting field content with mouse

All
when I want to copy the contents of a field , I select the content with the mouse(it goes blue) and then I can copy (ctrl+c). But in my R/3 system, if I copy the content with the mouse, it turns blue all right but on releasing the mouse, the highlighted content defaults back to the original. (Meaning it's not highlighted anymore and can't be thus copied).
Which suitable setting inside the R/3 will enable me to achieve this ?
Thanks in advance
**I have the workaround of using (shift+ keybd. arrows) to highlight and copy, but I would like to achieve this with help of the mouse.

Shovon,
Quick copy paste ir very helpful.
The moment you highlight it, the contentis copied onto the clipboard.. and if you wnat to paste it in any SAP related input field, right click the mouse .. the content gets copied.. and if you wish to paste it in any other application like Word or excel you have to use Ctrl+V
Hope this helps

Scrolling Flash Content With Mouse Scroll Bar

I created a custom scroll bar in AS2.0 and it works great.
But now I would like the content to scroll with the mouse scroll
wheel. Any ideas?

Anyone know how to fix this on Mac Osx, it works in preview
but not in safari. Any pointers?
var mouseListener:Object = new Object ();
mouseListener.onMouseWheel = function (delta)
//contentMain._y += delta;
scrollFace._y -= delta;
if (scrollFace._y >= bottom)
scrollFace._y = bottom;
if (scrollFace._y <= top)
scrollFace._y = top;
updateContentPos ();
Mouse.addListener (mouseListener);
function updateContentPos ()
var onePercent = (bottom - top) / 100;
var scrollPerc = Math.floor ((scrollFace._y / onePercent) -
37);
var contentNewY = (contentMain._height * scrollPerc) / 100;
//trace (scrollPerc + " " + contentNewY)
contentMain._y = -contentNewY;
}

I get different result when I paste with mouse and shift+ins

Sometimes I get different result when I paste the clipboard content with mouse and shift+insert key combination. Why? What can I do to stop this annoyance?

Just to add a little to the above, there really is no universally applied standard (not even close) for how the primary, secondary, and clipboard buffers should be used. Any X program can use them however they wish. But there are some common patterns: selected text should be placed in the primary buffer, and X pastes from the primary buffer with either middle click or shift-ins by default.
This default can (and unfortunately often is) overriden by clipboard managers - I don't know why they don't stay true to their name and just manage the clipboard buffer, but they often don't.
<mini rant>with no clipboard tools installed, selected text in any program I have is in the primary selection, and shift+ins or middle click paste from this primary selection. Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V post to/from the clipboard buffer. No need for extra tools. If I install any clipboard manager, this default sanity of X11 goes strait to s(&*Y. I don't like clipboard managers </mini rant> <mini praise> X11 is great without any of that cruft added </mini praise>

Can no longer select text in email template or read only field with mouse using IE or Firefox?

Hi Guys,
I can no longer select text in email template or read only field using my mouse in IE or Firefox anymore. We are using CRM 2011 rollup 18 applied with IE 11 and the latest version of Firefox. We only applied roll up 18 in Feb when this issue began.
Thanks

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
These features rely on JavaScript, and it sounds as though you have scripting enabled if you get (the wrong) color changes. Some add-ons might alter the way scripts operate, so a standard diagnostic to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode."
If those features work correctly, this points to one of your extensions or custom settings as the problem.
To also disable plugins, you can use this page:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Plugins category
Any change?

To capture the selected rows along with edited field contents in alv report

Dear All,
         I do have requirement where, in alv report output one field is editable and need to save the content of the edited field along with the selected rows.
         For example If there are 10 records displayed in the alv output with 20 fields.
Out of this 20 fields one field (say XYZ) is editable. Also i have already created a new pushbutton (say ABC) on alv output. Now in the alv output if we maintain some value in the field (XYZ ) for the 2nd and 4th record and select this two records, and when clicked on the pushbutton (ABC) it has to update the DB table.
      I am using the Func Module 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.
      Your early reply with sample code would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

HI Naveen ,
There is an import parameter "i_callback_program" in the function module,
plz pass the program name to it.
Capture the command by passing a field of type sy-ucomm to "I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND ". Check the returned command and
and program a functionality as desired.
u can try the event double_click or at line selection. there u can use READLINE command to c if the line has been selected.
In case it is , process the code segment.
Regards
Pankaj

No, you have still fundamental misunderstood how listeners are working. You add a listener to a component. From this time on, this listener is watching this component. It listens if something occurs with this component therefor it is competent. If so, then it will pay attention to this. So the listener always knows the components it is in charge of. There is no need for you to "keep track of the last selected component" because the listener is doing this for you already.

} You also should read again the Java Tutorial about Concurrency in Swing. Especially why and how to separate the initial thread form the event dispatch thread. [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/concurrency/initial.html]
Also have a look on [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/focus.html], especially [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/focus.html#focusable] for why use the MouseListener too.
And if you have understood that all, then you may think about in what way it would be much easier to use JButton's instead of JLabel's for your clickable and focusable thumbnails.

Text Area steals Focus from Text Field when selected with mouse

I have created a very simple form with 4 spry validation elements here :: http://octopusdesign.net/contactus.html
When I attempt to select the 'Your Email' text field using the mouse, focus is grabbed by the text area above it.
It is only possible to get focus on the 'Your Email' text field by using tab.
My best guess is that this is a bug in the framework.
In addition to updating my spry libraries to 1.6 from 1.4 I've tried the following things::
Reordering the elements in the form.
Creating the elements in a different order.
Replacing the validation elements with ordinary elements.
None of these fixed the problem.
Strangely, if I remove the validation text area there is no problem.
If anyone can shed some light on this I would really appreciate it.
Wisdom gratefully received.
Chris

Furthermore ::
I've tried to reconstruct the form from scratch and discovered that if you have a validation text field and a validation text area in any order on the form, selecting the 2nd element with the mouse always results in the first element stealing the focus.

ICON with field contents in case of ALV GRID

But in case of GRID layout I am only getting ICON without field contents.

Read the documentation of FM ICON_CREATE, the purpose of the Function module is entirely different from what you are using it for.
To print Icons in ALV (Using FMs ) all you need to do is to send the Icon name in the field.
Also parameters TEXT and INFO of FM ICON_CREATE seem to be flags, that are appended to the icon name so that when you set it on the screen the appropriate info or Text is shown.

Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?

The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro?

How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro while maintaining page size and annotation/highlight interactivity? I've tried to use the crop tool in Acrobat Pro (9) and the page does resize, but the highlights and annotations go all over the place. I specifically need to scale the page content smaller (83%) but maintain page size and annotation/highlight to content connection and interactivity.

An old trick (not recommended) would be to print to a new PDF with the page size selected but a scaling of the content. Only print the document, not the markup, to a new PDF. Close that PDF when done and reopen the old one (or maybe a copy of the old one for safety) and use Document Replace pages and select the new document to replace your current pages. You will then have to go back through the markup to locate it all correctly. There may be a more elegant way, but this may be the fastest.

How to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot controlled with mouse, returns auto to top of scroll slide, never remaining at bottom

how to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot be controlled with mouse, scroll bar returns automatically to the top of scroll slide every time I move the bar to the bottom of the scale. Also, there's a rectangular text box (with black background and white text) that is always on the desktop that emulates a typed text, HTML, or cmd function.

The first two problems (box cycling from element to element on page, scroll bar returning to top) can be caused by a stuck (or defective) Tab key on the keyboard. Such damage can be caused by a liquid spill; just one tiny droplet is enough to short a wafer switch under one key.
The last issue (black box, white text - sounds sorta like a debugger window) I haven't seen, but could be caused by something similar.
To check for that, try using a different keyboard. If you're using a wireless keyboard, turn it off and see if the oddities stop.

How do you highlight several cells with the mouse in numbers

how do you highlight several cells with the mouse in numbers

Hi David,
Using only the mouse, you can select a contiguous range of cells using the method described by dwb.
For larger (but still contiguous) ranges you might prefer this method:
Click the first (top left) cell of the desired selection.
Scroll to the last (botom right) cell of the desired selection.
Shift-click the bottom right cell to select it, and all of the cells in the rectangular array defined by this and the top left cell selected in step 1.
To select two or more non-contiguous cells:
Click on the first to select it.
Command-click on another to add it to the selection.
Repeat as necessary.
Regards,
Barry

ImageField not highlighting with "Highlight Fields" button

Is there any standard ptogram/tcode to download idoc contents with fields.

Hello All,
Is there any standard ptogram/tcode to download idoc contents with fields?
Thanks,
Devaraj.

Hi Patil,
I dont think there is standard program or t-code.
But u can down load the IDOC with field contents by following way
Goto t-code WE62- give the basic idoc name- press display button then it shows all filed contents with description.
Now select 'SYSTEM' LISTSAVE--LOCAL FILE from menu bar .
Here select the file type ie spread sheet,html, etc and give the file name and directory where u need to place it.
<b>Rewards with points if helpful.</b>
