Hi,
Set selection to this textFrame.insertionPoints - any of them, lets say the first one.

How to hide the cursor in text entry boxes

I didn't see this answer in the forum, and it took a while to figure this out so I thought I'd post my
solution.
The issue is that a question requires that the user know where to click before typing, then type the correct value.
The problem is that a text entry field shows the cursor; a dead give-away as to where the user is supposed to type.
My solution is:
1) Hide the text entry box (give it a name and uncheck 'Visible' in the options).
2) Add a transparent button (with default text if needed) over the area where the user must click.
- Set the 'Success' option to 'Show', and make the 'Show' item the name of your text entry box.
- Disable all captions (unless they get points for clicking in the right place).
3) Set the object timing so the button displays until clicked, then end the button display. Start the display of the text entry field immediately after the end of the button display.
The effect is that the user clicks the correct area, then the cursor displays in the correct location, ready for the text entry.

Brilliant!
You get a gold star for this idea. Very original thinking.

How to get the UIDRef of Text frame associated with hyperlink?

Hi,
I have a document which contains Text hyperlinks . I am able to get the number of hyperlinks present in document using "IHyperlinkTable" and text range to which hyperlink is associated using interface "IHyperlink".
InterfacePtr<IHyperlink> hyperlink(tableDb, table->GetNthHyperlink(i), IID_IHYPERLINK);
if(hyperlink)
hyperlink->GetName(&sHyperlinkName); //sHyperlinkName is text to which hyperlink is associated
now I need to find the UIDRef of Text frame with which hyperlink is associated.
I can get the UIDRef of "Image frame" using interface "IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData".
InterfacePtr<IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData> sourceHyperLink (tableDb, hyperlink->GetSourceUID(), UseDefaultIID());
if (sourceHyperLink)
UID sourceHyperLinkUID = sourceHyperLink->GetSourceUID();
but this interface may be not helpful in case of text in the frame (word/words) associated with hyperlink.
If anyone has done this please do let me know.
Thank you all in advance.

Hi All,

How to show the message text for constraint violations

Hi all,
In a batch procedure a primary key is violated (ORA-00001). For the primary key, a message is recorded in the TAPI and the message table.
How to show the enduser a proper message text instead of the ORA-00001.
We are using Designer 6 with Headstart 2.1.2.
Thanks in advance,
Joep

Joep,
If you try to insert the record by calling the ins procedure of the Table API, you will see that it will result in an ORA-20998 message, which means that the error message details reside in the CG$ERRORS plsql message table. These messages can be extracted e.g. with the messages.sql script, shipped with headstart.
If you do not want to rewrite your direct DML (insert into [table name] ...) in the complexer calls to the TAPI services, you might want to user VAPI's for it. In fact, this is one of the major advantages of using VAPI's.
The CDM guidelines volume, chapter 6 states that:
<I>The front end no longer needs to trap declarative constraint
errors (Primary Key, Unique Key, Not Null and Check
Constraint violations) and replace them with a user-friendly
error. The View API issues DML statements through the TAPI
and the TAPI traps all declarative constraint errors, and puts
user-friendly message on the stack, in the preferred language of
the user! Fore more information, see the section, Completeness
of Rule Violations Reported in Front End, in this chapter.</I>
So the only thing you need to do is generate VAPI's, and trap the ORA-20998 message (qms$errors.qms$exception) in an exception handler, where you retrieve the user friendly messages from the message stack!!

How to get the footage's current frame number in expression?

There are 2 layers.One is text layer,one is sequence layer.
Footage has begun from the 20th frame.
Therefore, the number of composition's current frame number and footage's frame number has shifted.
I want to show footage's frame number in text layer . not composition's frame number.
How to get the footage's current frame number in expression?
Tatsuya

>Footage has begun from the 20th frame.
Do you mean that the footage layer has been trimmed (so that the start of the footage lines up with the start of the comp, but the first 19 frames are not visible), or moved to the left (so that frame 20 lines up with the comp's frame 0), or that the sequence actually begins with the 20th frame (at frame 0 of the comp), or something else?
Are the frame rates of the comp and the footage the same?

How can redirect the errorPage to another frame?

Please advise, I have been sticking to this problem for a whole day and still can't solve it. :-(
What I basically want to do is to redirect the errorPage to another frame, say, the main frame.
My application has 2 frames, the main frame is a search page, the left frame is a tree which is written by JavaScript and it is a hidden frame. The form code of the search page in the main frame is like that:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="FindAgent.jsp" target="leftFrame">
when the submit button is clicked, it will invoke the FindAgent.jsp which will update the tree and also has codes to catch any exception if there is. The problem is that when exceptions occur, the errorPage will be shown in the leftFrame which is hidden frame so it doesn't show anything. So how can I make the errorPage displayed in the _TOP window?
I would not mind to have the errorPage displayed in the mainFrame by changing the target to "_SELF" or doesn't specify the target attribute at all in the search page. But anyother problem arose by doing that is that the search page will go away and try to display the FindAgent.jsp which doesn't have any appearance code after submitting. So how can I keep the current search page still but the submit() has been called actually, i.e. submit the form without redirecting the current search page.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Here's an idea. Have your error page (in the hidden frame), look something like this:
<%
String strErrorMessage = ... // get your error message text here
%>
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
parent.mainframe.location = "ErrorPage.jsp";
</script>
</head>
</html>So the error page loads in the hidden frame, which then extracts the error information from the exception object. Then, using javascript, the hidden frame tells the main frame (using window references) to reload to the desired page. The only issue is how to get the error message text to the new page since your exception object is lost. You can store it as a session variable, and then pass the id of the message in the url to the new page, or you could just pass the text in the url itself.
I hope that gives you some ideas!

CS3 VB how to get reference to a text frame?

Hi there,
I got a text frame in a document with a table inside. In first cell of the table there is another text frame with table. How to get a reference to the first text frame from the frame inside of the cell?
text frame in a cell has a character as parent, character has a cell as parent, cell has table as a parent - in this place there should be the right text frame as a parent of a table, but unfortunatly there is a story! so any idea how to get the text frame from there?
regards

thx again Harbs,
believe me - I am watching all stuff at the watch window of VB6 - there is not even one insertion point which has a ParentTextFrames - if I try to adres it I get an error. VisualBasic do not allow syntax like InsertionPoints[1] - it allows something like this:
InsertionPoints(1) but it is the same like InsertionPoints.Item(1). In both cases it doesn't works - all object has ParentTextFrames.Count = 0.
Anyway I found a solution for my problem:
innerFrame.Parent.ParentStory.TextContainers.Item(1) is the right text frame - don't ask me why....

How to show the login user Id in the upper right corner of each page?

Hi,
I was wondering how to show the login user Id in the upper right corner of each page?
thanks so much!
cchu

Cchu,
The easy question first: applying a style to the welcome message. If you look at the page source, you'll see that #WELCOME_USER# is expanded to <div class="app-user">Welcome: DEMO</div> So to change the style of the message, you need to tweak the style of the app-user div in your CSS, or override it in a style block in your HTML header.
Now, the tougher question: why the text is wrapping for you. And, really, without seeing your entire page, I can't give a full answer. But I'd suggest that what's most likely happening is that the table column you're putting it in is too narrow, so it's wrapping; try replacing the td tag with <td nowrap="nowrap"> This will force the column to be wide enough to display the full message, but might result in weird formatting elsewhere on the page (depending on what all is in your table).

May I know how to change the color of texts inside the indicator box?

Can anyone tell me how to change the color of texts inside the indicator box? I have tried to use property node but not really know how it functions.
In fact, I am writing a program for which the number inside indicator on front panel will show red color if the measured value can't reach the requirement. I am using LabView 6.1 Professional
Thank You for your attention!!!!!!

Simply use a property node with "NumText.TextColor" and wire the correct color depending on your test result.
The attached simple example (LV 6.1) lets you change it from the front panel. In your case, you would use your test output instead of a FP switch, of course. Message Edited by altenbach on 05-25-2005 09:05 PM

How to get the values from repeated frame?.

Hi
how to get the values from repeated frame?. i have to disply the first 3 digits in another place in my report.
i have field empno in repeated frame and i want to disply first 3 digits in another place in the same report.
thanks

How often do you need to display it? It sounds like you might want to base a summary on that formula with a function of first or last. If it's a per page basis, it can be a page level summary. If it's at a higher level repeating frame, then you can create the summary at that level. I'd suggest taking a look at the online help for summaries using the first/last functions.
Hope that helps,
