I need to separate text in JTextField into 2 colors

Hello,
I have JTextField and when i'm writing text into that JTextField i need 29 symbols to be red and others to be blue.

You can't have different color text in a JTextField. You need to use a JTextPane for this. Read this section from the Swing tutorial for an example:

How to make partial text in JTextField in different color

I have a JTextField for user input but need to initially display something in one color and whatever user types in will be appended to this initial text with different color. I appreciate any help.

you need a component that can be set up for styled text
like JTextPane possibly or like that.
There is a styled text example in demos i think
and possibly this will help

How can a 2 column text frame be split into 2 separate text frames?

Hi InDesigners,
I have a 12 spread (22 page) document that was originally created with a single column primary text frame in CS6. It contains text and anchored images throughout the doc. (images are anchored to the text frame).
My client now wants each page split into 2 columns, but the columns need to have different widths - the left column needs to be narrower than the right. Although I can create 2 columns in a single frame, it's not possible to adjust the column widths separately, so I need to get them into 2 separate frames.
Is there a way to convert a 2 column text frame into 2 separate text frames, so I can resize the column widths invididually?
kind regards,
-c

hi, Thanks for the replies,
The doc size is 8.5"x11", with 1/2 " margins. I never mentioned anything about it being a book. (It's just a paper my client wrote and woud like a PDF of it). The reason for the uneven columns is he wants the images to be 4" wide. For some reason, he wasn't keen on just a single column with text wrapped around the pix. I proposed making a 3" left column threaded into a 4" right col with a .5" gutter between them and he wants it that way.
Thank you both for your respones. I'll try the script

How can i redirect 5 choice options from a drop down list into 5 separate text fields?

I have a number of drop down lists which push one of 5 choices to a text field on another page.
I want to be able to push each choice from one drop down field to a separate field, so that it is not possible to duplicate the drop down choice.
The resulting page is going to be locked.
What script do I need to use to send each of the five choices specifically to five separate text fields?
Thanks for the insight.

Hi Paul,
I've had a look at the sample script you posted. I'm not sure how to make it work with the form I'm creating. (I sent it to you earlier.) Would you mind setting one of the fields up on my form so that I can get an idea of how to then push the choices set up on the "visible on screen only" to the textfields which are locked on the visible page? Do i lock the fields in the same way?
Will I need to create a new script for each of the arrays I'll be creating? for example, myScript1, myScript2, my Script3....
Why do i need a reset button?

Splitting up text at line breaks into separate text objects

creating a map with many text objects each containing one village name etc. or sth similar it would be nice if we could
- type all names with enter/linebreaks
- and then choose something like 'create separate text objects for each text line'
I know I could convert the start text into outlines and then individually placing/moving them, but I still want to be able to edit all texts in one go (e.g. changing font size, colour, etc.)

Beate,
Since you mentioned a map, you can also do it this way:
1. Count the paragraphs in your text.
2. Select the text object containing the lines of text. Copy or Cut it to the Clipboard.
3. LineTool: Draw a horizontal line.
4. AltShiftDrag a copy of the line downward. Transform Again (Ctrl D) until you have as many lines as you had paragraphs.
5. Text tool: Hover over the topmost line. Click when you see the Type On A Path cursor. Paste.
6. Drag a selection marquee across all the lines. Type>ThreadedText>Create.
7. Type>ThreadedText>RemoveThreading.
Now you have a bunch of indiviudal text objects, but they are already Type On A Path objects; so you can drag them into position on your map, and then directselect their paths to edit their shapes (assuming you want pathType objects to bend along roads, etc.)

Can I separate text messages into groups by senderS

Two separate iPhones got merged into one iTunes account. How to separate them. We are sharing all of each other's contacts at this time. Thanks for your help.

Two separate iPhones got merged into one iTunes account. How can I separate them in iTunes???????. We are sharing all of each other's contacts at this time. Thanks for your help.

The reason you are receiving each other's text messages is because you are both using the same Apple ID for iMessage. To prevent this you need to use different IDs. (Note: you can still share the same ID for iTunes.) On one of the phones, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID.
To migrate your 3GS to a new iCloud account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep on the phone to your camera roll. To do this, open the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. Next, if you have any notes that you are syncing with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to email these to yourself so they can be recreated after moving to the new account.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, choose Keep On My iPhone. Next, sign back in with a different Apple ID to create the new account, turn iCloud data syncing preferences and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, if you have merged data in the two accounts that you want to separate you will have to go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want from each account.

Maintaining SQL Queries in a separate text file

The best place to store the queries, and HOW to store them depends on your architecture and on how your application is being used.
Is this a single-user application on a user's pc? Or is your application located on an application server in the middle-tier?
The queries should be stored where they will be used. Your queries should be stored in the tier where your application code will reside. On the client PC for a single-user app, on the application server for a 3-tier app and incorporated into stored procedures/functions/packages if part of a database app.
If your application is totally external to the database (e.g. a reporting app) then it doesn't make sense for you to become part of the database architecture. An org isn't going to let you create objects in the database to store your queries when your queries are not part of the database application. That puts the burden on them to backup your objects, restore them for your and provide support to you and your application.
What format to store the queries in is a different issue. A major criteria is the type of queries you are using and how they are used. Many apps that query the database cannot just use hard-coded queries that are never modified. Users need to be able to provide parameters (e.g. name, ID, state, etc) to select just the data that they want.
That means the base query itself may not even be valid syntax but needs to have a WHERE clause added. Prepared statements and queries that use bind variables ('WHERE ID = ?') are typically used for these.
One method of storage is to use Java property files that use name=value pairs. Using property files makes it easy to use Java to find a query by name and load it for you. Then your code would have functionality to modify the query to provide the parameter 'bind' values and execute it.
There are also frameworks available for handling database related functionality. There is no need for you to write your own libraries for this. I suggest you locate a suitable framework to use.

Get rid of text-select-turning-into-cursor-on-second-click

I'm currently trying to select only some of many separate text pieces, and I can't do it because the select arrow is constantly turning into a cursor. (I finally had to lock all the other layers and do several click-and-drags around the page to get the right pieces.) Don't know why they ever did this--when I work in Illustrator, I need the text cursor much less often than I need to move text objects around the page.
Someone said on this forum that it used to be you would hit "tab" to get the cursor--I see no problem with going back to that.
If anyone knows how I can get better control over the select arrow, then please let me know.

>The feature is a time waster. Hitting t on the keyboard is much more accurate and doesn't involve command-z or escape then switching BACK to the desired tool when a double click has accidentally occurred. I realize this is my opinion and may not be shared by Nini's "most users," whomever they are.
But double-clicking
is more accurate and reliable. I can double-click on a text item to edit it, but when I use the Type tool I often end up clicking on nearby paths, converting them to text objects. A one-step action becomes a multi-step action. Point Nini.
However I agree, too, that there often seems to be a hair trigger on the double-click. An option in the preferences to enable the feature would probably satisfy most users. Where by "most" I mean "all".

Problem with focus and selecting text in jtextfield

I have problem with jtexfield. I know that solution will be very simple but I can't figure it out.
This is simplified version of situation:
I have a jframe, jtextfield and jbutton. User can put numbers (0-10000) separated with commas to textfield and save those numbers by pressing jbutton.
When jbutton is pressed I have a validator which checks that jtextfield contains only numbers and commas. If validator sees that there are invalid characters, a messagebox is launched which tells to user whats wrong.
Now comes the tricky part.
When user presses ok from messagebox, jtextfield should select the character which validator said was invalid so that user can replace it by pressing a number or comma.
I have the invalid character, but how can you get the focus to jtextfield and select only the character which was invalid?
I tried requestFocus(), but it selected whole text in jtextfield and after that command I couldn't set selected text. I tried with commands setSelectionStart(int), setSelectionEnd(int) and select(int,int).
Then I tried to use Caret and select text with that. It selected the character I wanted, but the focus wasn't really there because it didn't have keyFocus (or something like that).
Is there a simple way of doing this?

textField.requestFocusInWindow();
textField.select(...);The above should work, although read the API on the select(...) method for the newer recommended approach on how to do selection.
If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",
see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
Don't forget to use the "Code Formatting Tags",
see http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting,
so the posted code retains its original formatting.

I have inherited an ICloud account from one of my employers when transferring from old MacBook Pro to new MacMini and need to separate from this, presumably by setting up a new ICloud account. How do I do this ?

I have inherited an ICloud account from one of my employers when transferring from old MacBook Pro (which belonged to them) to new MacMini and need to separate from this, presumably by setting up a new ICloud account. How do I do this ? And is there any danger, in doing so, that I might delete any of her ICloud information ?

Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud. This will remove any synced data such as Calendars, emails and Contacts from your Mac, but will have no effect on the data on the server - so that other devices logged into it will continue to see the data.

How to load a text file (ASCII) into a TS string variable?

I need to load a ASCII file into a TS string variable for subsequent processing. I tried the SecuenceBuilder DLL (in the examples directory) but it seems that this DLL has a bug. Some text files are not loaded properly. I have also tried the kernel32 functions (openfile, createfile, readfile ... ) handling them as a C program, but with no success. The property loader feature of TS is not the suitable solution for me, because I would have to modify all my text files to include some specific fields (step name, variables, starmarker ...). Doy you know an alternative procedure to load text files or any DLL that implements what I look for ? Any help would be grateful. Cesar ([email protected])

Hi Cesar,
I don't know if you have found a solution, but attached is a DLL built in VC that will read the text out of a file into a TestStand variable. The attached sequence file \SequenceFile1.seq contains a step type that is set to call the DLL responsible for reading the file. It reads the file specified under Step.FilePath and stores the data in Step.ReadData. Please let me know if this works for you. I have attached the source as well.
Regards,
Bob

Two separate text frames with own toc

How do I set up two separate text frames side-by-side as two columns, and create a separate table of contents for each?
I need to create a two-language document with English on the left and a translated language on the right. Each language will also have separate illustrations and cross references to them in the text. Basically, I need to create two manuals in a single document.
I'm doing this with Frame 7.1 if that makes any difference.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

To create the two separate text frames, simply use the Text Frame graphic tool on the Master Pages to draw tthe second frame. You will need to give the "Flow" for this text frame a unique name. By default FM uses "A" for a flow name, but you can change this to be the name of the language.
See: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/using/WSd817046a44e105e21e63e3d11ab7f74e4d-7fb8.htm l (Set up a multi-flow document)
However, I would recommend that you first create separate documents for the English and translated versions. Then import the contents of those documents by reference (i.e. create text insets) in your combined document.
Use the combined document as your publishing vessel and the separate documents as your editing/working environment.
The only gotcha would be if you need to maintain side-by-side fidelity with each paragraph in the English and translated version. If so, then you should import by copy and then you'll hjave to manually adjust the paragraph spacings to stay lined up.
