How to delete characters to the right of the cursor position

On a PC, the <Delete> key deletes characters to the right of the cursor, while <Bkspace> does the same for characters on the left.
On the MAC, the <Delete> key removes only characters to the left of where the cursor is, and there is no <Bkspace> key.
Although <fn> plus <Delete> can achieve this 'rightward' delete, is there a way to do it using a single key on the MacBook?
Thanks. Replies appreciated.

Hi Stevenray1
You have two delete keys on your Mac keyboard. The one in the place of the "backspace" key does indeed remove characters to the left of the cursor. But if you look at your keyboard there is a second one in the set of keys above the cursor keys. On my keyboard that delete key also has an arrow with an X in it pointing to the right. Use that one and you'll see that it will remove characters to the right of the cursor.

How to delete photos on the i-pad?

How to delete photos on the i-pad?

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncin.

HT3281 anyone know how to delete podcasts off the new itunes please

Hi
Does anyone know how you delete podcasts of the new I-Tunes please
Thank you

The show duplicates/show exact duplicates features have been left out of iTunes 11. Rumor suggests they will be restored in the next build. In the meantime I have written two Windows scripts to make playlists of Duplicates and Exact Duplicates, either from a selection of tracks or the entire library.
If you want to manually remove duplicate tracks use shift-delete to remove selected tracks from the library as well as the playlist. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file.
There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.

How to delete podcasts with the iclould icon?

How to delete podcasts with the iclould icon?

That is discouraging. However I do notice that if I view my podcasts in My Podcasts mode they are grouped and sorted better than in Unplayed mode and the ones in the cloud are not shown. However although I prefer the one window view of List mode to the two windows My Podcast mode, My Podcast mode does at least indicate how many unplayed episodes I have from each podcast. This would almost be acceptable except that partially listened to podcasts, while still there, can only be identified by highlighting the podcast title on the lefthand sidebar, (although the number of completely unplayed episodes are listed on the left hand sidebar). As someone who often listens to a podcast over two or more days I fear I could forget which ones I have only partially listened to and would have to go down the entire left hand sidebar list highlighting each podcast to remind myself. I really find the List mode the most informative and easiest way to view my podcasts and really wish Apple had not messed with it

Informative thread indeed. Wish I saw it early enough. Managed to come up with the code below before I saw this thread.
declare @TTName Table
(TableSchemaTableName
varchar
(500),
[status] int
default 0);
with AvailableTables
(TableSchemaTableName)
as
(select
QUOTENAME(TABLE_SCHEMA)
+
+
QUOTENAME(TABLE_NAME)
from
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES)
insert into @TTName
(TableSchemaTableName)
select *
from AvailableTables
declare @TableSchemaTableName varchar
(500)
declare @sqlstatement nvarchar
(1000)
while 1=1
begin
set @sqlstatement
=
'DROP TABLE '
+ @TableSchemaTableName
exec
sp_executeSQL
@sqlstatement
print
'Dropped Table : '
+ @TableSchemaTableName
update @TTName
set [status]
= 1
where TableSchemaTableName
= @TableSchemaTableName
if
(select
count([Status])
from @TTName
where [Status]
= 0)
= 0
break
end

Dear Friends
My actual problem description as the following
I have a form for production order screen , and this form contain header and details blocks , so the user in the details will select Type Code , and he will go the next field that is Item Code Field search for specific Item Code if it is not exist he has to call the Item Definition Form by using this script
CALL_FORM(ITEM_DEFINITION);
Then when he finished defining the Item , and I assign the item code as the following in the :
WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED TRIGGER
:GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR := :ITEM_CODE;
DO_KEY('exit_form');
But I don't know where to keep this assignment
:ITEM_CODE := :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR;
inside the caller form in which trigger do I have to use when it return from the caller form it should assign the :GLOBAL.ITEM_CODE_VAR to the :ITEM_CODE and the cursor it should show inside the ITEM_CODE , and as I mention it does not return to the same location of The ITEM_CODE when it return from the calling form
Waiting for your valuable answer .
With example please .

I have placed a table that give back the number of the row if I doubleclick a row on the frontpanel, but when I restart the vi the cursor of the table is on this position. If I have many informations in the table and after restarting there are just one or two, I can`t see this information without scrolling to the top of the table.

Changing the cursor position

Is it possible to change the cursor position automatically when changing the language?
For example: when changing from English to Hebrew the cursor will move from the right end to the left?
Thanks,
Amnon

I don't think this is possible in general, although some individual apps might do it. Normally you use a direction control from an app menu or at the system level.

Locating the cursor position

Is it possible to locate the cursor position in a text item? in other words can I find the number of characters to the left of the cursor in a text item?
I really appreciate any kind of input on this.
null

I have to insert user selected variables that show up in a LOV into the text item at the cursor position.
A sloppy workaround for this problem is asking the user to put in a pre defined symbol where ever he/she wants to insert the variables and then replace the variable with the value selected from the LOV using the REPLACE function. There is always a chance of error here!
Instead if there is a way to know the cursor position, like the no. of characters to the left of the cursor or the cursor co-ordinates.............
