How to select a block of text in SE38?

Not talking about CTRL+Y, that is good to select on reports or tables etc. I once knew the shortcut to select block text and paste block text in SE38. Does anyone remember that shortcut key? Thanks.

Hi
This is an option in setting menu from where u can select block of code by just displaying mouse over it and code automatically

How to efficiently select a block of text in iOS

I'm a relatively new iPad user who has brought his iPad into hospital. I'm frequently find iOS to be quirky. There are frequent times when I cannot select the specific phrase i want to capture. iOS guesses and almost always guesses way wrong, way, way too much. I'm startled that Apple has no tutorials on the iOS operating system itself. What am I missing?

If you don't have this already, you may find it somewhat helpful.

You can also download the user guide as a free book in the iBooks Store. You will need to download the free iBooks app if you haven't already done so in order to download the book.
Selecting text in iOS takes a little getting used to. It might help if you pinch out on the screen in order to enlarge the text and that makes it a little easier to refine the area that you are trying to select.
I forgot about this one. This might be helpful as well.

AICS3, How to curve a block of text

I'm still using AICS3, but I hope someone can help me anyway. I'm creating a file that will eventually go to a sign shop to have vinyl letters cut. These letters are being adhered to the surface of a cone (I work in a museum: I'm always doing stuff like this.) My problem is that the entire paragraph of text, about 12 lines, needs to be curved. That way it will conform to the cone surface. I could do a series of concentric arcs, but AI does not draw arcs (by the way, an arc is defined as a set of points equidistant from a reference point arrayed in a measure of arc degrees or some other fraction of a circle circumference. It is not a curved line defined by an x,y box, which is what AICS3 misnames an "arc." So please don't tell me to use the "arc" tool. There isn't one. Sorry for the digression, but this needs to be pointed out so I don't get crazy answers.) I tried using the Envelope tool, but it is really unworkable. The text cannot be selected, the arc cannot be controlled, etc. Would it be better to do this in InDesign CS3? I'm willing to use either ID or AI if I can get it done. Thanks in advance for any help!

Not being able to, at a minimum, draw an arc or circle by radius is absurd and there can be no debate on this.
Well, here's the debate that "cannot be":
This ideal arc tool you envision; tell me, which radius would you expect it to prompt you for when you need to draw a non-circular arc?
Do you think that just because a software asks you to specify a circle in terms of center coordinates and radius that what it renders is therefore actually a circle, when otherwise it is not? Again, that's nonsense.
In about 30 minutes, I could create for you a Javascript-based tool that runs in Illustrator and that prompts you for center coordinates and a radius and then draws a circle. Would you then consider the circles it draws to be more "correct" or "accurate"? In fact, for my own purposes, I have a very simple Javascript that lets me define an ellipse in terms of diameter and "angle" (tilt relative to the picture plane), just as ellipses are defined on industry-standard drafting templates.
Similarly, a plug-in programmer could code an actual real-time interactive tool with which you would mousedown where you want the center of a circle to be, and then drag so as to define the radius. The interface of such a tool could even require you to drag the end of the displayed "radius" in order to change the size of the circle, and display no Bezier control points unless "converted" from a "circle" to a Bezier path. Wanna see one? Canvas. But do you think it doesn't actually draw a Bezier curve?
Regardless, if either those tools exist in Illustrator (and just about any other program of the same type and purpose) the actual math defining the resulting path would still be cubic Bezier equations, whether you ever saw path handles and height/width values or not. If that bothers you, and you actually think it matters, you just have to use something else. And good luck efficiently doing general-purpose commercial illustration with a CAD program. Bezier math is the curve-rendering math basis of PostScript, and therefore of Illustrator. It is not "sub-standard" or "inferior" to other curve rendering equations. In fact, it is arguably superior.
Again, if all you're saying is that Illusrtrator's Ellipse interface is sub-standard, I'd be the last to disagree. FreeHand's Elipse tool, for example, allows you to define any circular or eliptical arc or circle or ellipse with the one tool. But that doesn't change the fact that the actual math being used to plot the curve is still the same cubic Bezier equation as used in Illustrator. And you seem to think that a Bezier-described arc is not a "real" arc to any extent that matters one whit to anything.
We've had this discussion here before. No software on the planet actually "draws a circle." Strictly speaking, you've never even seen an "actual" circle. The only "circle" (or triangle, or any other geometric primitive) you've ever actually seen is a mere physical approximation of an ideal concept. The physical result of all curve-drawing algorithms is a mere approximation, limited by the physical realities of the rendering mechanism. So if you are going to persist in this utter nonsense of making the most extremely huge mountain out of a literally microscopic molehill, you are eventually going to have to speak to the actual degree of inaccuracy that causes you such angst.
Give me an example of a software that you think draws a "real" circle. A CAD program? How does that work? Do you know? Do you think it actually starts by shining the emitter of a CRT at the point on the screen you specify as the center, moves horizontally the distance you specify as the radius, and then scribes a circular path around the center as if being swung on a string? If that "circle" is exported as a DXF file and is then used to drive to an NC plotter, do you think the path in the DXF file is actually a circle, and not a series of straight-path facets that merely approximate a circle?
When that DXF drawing is plotted to a pen plotter, do you think the instructions to the plotter actually say "spin the pen around this point at this distance"? No, it says "step the roller motor at these increments (move Y), while stepping the pen holder at these increments (move X)." In fact, it really usually says, "go to this XY coordinate. Then go to this XY coordinate. Then go to this XY coordinate....", in other words, drawing straight-line facets. Does that sound more like "radius and center" or " X and Y" to you?
So do you consider a set of XY coordinate pairs that merely describe the corners of a multi-sided polygon to be a "truer" circle than that generated by automatically plotting a curve at the highest physical resolution of a marking device according to the resolution independent nature of a cubic Bezier equation?
Have you ever run a CAD program in which you had to "regenerate the buffer" (i.e.; re-rasterize the screen image) after zooming in on the path that you naively think is being described as an "actual" circle? Have you never zoomed into a 3D model in an interactive video game and seen painfully ugly faceting?
Now, an NC device (say, a cylinder boring machine) may actually receive commands to "set the cutter arm to this distance, then begin spinning the spindle motor at this RPM while tracking the depth at this rate." But I wouldn't recommend using that NC device or its instructions to render curves to your computer monitor or to a printing press. But if all you want to do is draw circles with a boring bar....

Working in code view selects whole blocks of text when a page is opened for the first time

This is really annoying feature of dreamweaver, I assume it serves a purpose but I do not know what it is. If I open a document (I generally always work in code view) then select the area I wish to, say, copy and then press control and c, the whole block of code becomes selected (so my selection expands). That isn't what I selected so why does it do this? If I click outside the code view - on to css styles for example - then I can now select the lines of code I want and can work with the code as intended. If I save the document, tab to another document in dreamweaver and tab back again, the same happens. So, everytime I open a document I have to click CSS styles before I can work with the document as intended. I've been working with this for a while and it's go to the point where it makes me cry. It's not quite as annoying as working with the old ftp service but it's not far off.

Newbie-How to select sketch lines and text

Am more familiar with Photoshop. I have a jpeg sketch of a river channel.
1.I need to make it deeper and add "concrete" lines down into the channel banks.How to do that since I cannot seem to select anything in the sketch.
When I make it deeper it will go off the boundary of the original image.How to also make the whole sketch longer or change its size.

Don't understand "deeper."
Janet, if (as it sounds) you are expecting to edit this JPEG image in Illustrator, you really need to just start reading the documentation to learn what Illustrator is all about and to learn your way around it. Illustrator is not a pixel editor.
If, on the other hand, you intend to use this JPEG raster image as the basis for something you intent to draw in Illustrator, consider posting a link to the image so others can gain a sense of what you're talking about.

Newbie Mac user: Selecting block of text via the keyboard only?

Hi,
I'm switching over to a Mac from a PC and haven't been able to find an answer to this question. How do I select a block of text only by using the keyboard?
As an example, on the PC from wherever the cursor is in a document, if I then hit Ctrl-Shift-end, the entire rest of the document from the cursor down is selected. Another similar task would be to select all of the text from the cursor to the end of the line, which on the PC can be done with Shift-end.
Are there Mac equivalents?
Thanks.

COMMAND-SHIFT-end to select from the cursor to the end of the line. COMMAND-SHIFT-pagedown selects from cursor to end of document, use pageup to select entire document.
Other alternatives:
Press SHIFT and use the right arrow key to select characters. Use OPTION-SHIFT and right arrow to select words. COMMAND-right arrow key moves cursor to end of line and OPTION-right arrow moves cursor to next word.

In many instances wherever Windows uses CTRL in a shortcut the Mac uses COMMAND (Apple Key - ⌘)

Update 4.1.2 deleting large blocks of text following backspace correction

OK, this is a difficult for me to explain, but here goes nothing. I have been having an issue since the update. When typing a message, when I backspace to correct a wrong word/spelling, and then select the correct word from the predictive text bar, most of my message gets erased and replaced with the one word I selected. Even weirder, the word gets inserted in between the few characters of remaining text. The first couple times it happened, I thought I had accidentally selected the block of text with my cursor, but that was not the case. The text is not selected, but acts as though it is and gets overwritten/deleted. This is happening in Messaging and Gmail (and I am assuming all other typing applications).
Is anyone else having this issue? It is making me wan to throw my phone out the window! Please let me know if you know a fix for this.

Mine is doing the same thing! I got the update last night and it is deleting practically my entire message when I backspace. Also, the puncuation options do not pop up anymore like they used to at the top of the keyboard unless you hit space and then backspace.
I'm right there with you...I want to throw this thing out the window. I've seen some cool things this update did, but things I hardly ever would use. The fact it messed with my texting (something I do a lot) has really ****** me off.

How to write selection-screen block on 15th position?

Hello all,
I want to write selection-screen block on 15th position, How can I do this?
I know that we can write parameter/select-option on perticuler position using following code.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE t7.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION 15.
PARAMETERS: fdat LIKE SY-DATUM,
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.
It writes parameter(FDAT) on 15th position. How can I write whole block on 15th position?

Is it possible to use NUMCHARS to display the number of characters in a block of text instead of the whole document? How?

Is it possible to use NUMCHARS to display the number of characters in a block of text instead of the whole document? How?

Getting the character count for a paragraph is trivial:
Sub NumChars1()
MsgBox Selection.Paragraphs(1).Range.Characters.Count
End Sub
Even outputting it to the document is trivial:
Sub NumChars2()
With Selection.Paragraphs(1)
.Range.InsertAfter .Range.Characters.Count
End With
End Sub
The real issue comes when you want to update the document. If the destination paragraph is only ever empty or contains the character count of the previous paragraph, you could use:
Sub NumChars3()
With Selection.Paragraphs(1)
.Next.Range.Text = .Range.Characters.Count & vbCr
End With
End Sub

How to select text from a webpage

hi. i have firefox for my n900. i would like to know how to select some text from a webpage so i can copy and paste it. thanks for the help. i couldn't it anywhere.

First tap where you want the selection to start. (It might help to zoom in as far as possible first. You can do this using the volume buttons in the newly-released Firefox 1.1rc1.) Then hold the Shift key while pressing the arrow keys on the N900 keyboard to select text.
Note: We are aware that this is not a very user-friendly way to select text, and we hope to include a better design in a future version of mobile Firefox.

How to change "Select a content category " text

Hi folks,
I really appreciate the support community, as I did deeper and deeper into the produce I've seen the same handful of names pop up across the board! Thanks for all your help!
I was wondering how to change the "Select a content category>>" text that displays in a traditional skin next to your content categories upon generation. Specifically this:
Is there a way to edit the text? Mine are focused on government levels and I'd like to make it easier for users.
Thanks! Happy New Year!

Hi there
I believe you do it as follows:
Click File > Project Settings.
Ensure the General tab has focus.
Click the Advanced... button.
Click the LNG File tab.
Scroll the list to the [WebHelp] section.
Locate the item that reads: ContentCategoryList=Select a content category.
Click on it to select it.
Click the Edit button.
Change the text following the equals sign it to what you want it to read.
ContentCategoryList=Change this text
Press Enter to accept the change.
Click OK to dismiss the dialogs.
Generate and test!
Hope this helps... Rick

How can I have a standard text block appear on the last page of my documents?

How can I have a standard text block appear on the last page of my documents without having to type it in all the time? I have a terms statement with a line for a customer’s signature which I want on the last page of my invoices and right now I have to type it in each time or cut and paste it from a previous invoice. I already have a Master Page that includes the customer information and my company information at the top of each page and I am using data merge to fill each page with the items ordered and their pictures etc. I would just like to have this standard terms block automatically show up on the last page after the last item in the data merge.
Thank you all in advance for your help.

Thank you Peter. This works. I have the text block now at the bottom of a second master page which I apply to the last page. For aesthetics I can modify the position of the text block in the new master page to bring it up from the bottom under the last item ordered when there is less than 4 items on the page. (my data merge fits up to 4 items with their images on a page). If the last page is full I’ll insert a final page using the second master and also bring it up to the top of the page.
