JTabbedPanne and key-arrow

Hi!!!
I'm using a JTabbedPane and add a panel with TextField and Choice components... when i'm into a textfield or a choice and press a key-arrow i get moved from one tab to other one. How can i prevent it to happen?
Thanks

If focus is on the tab, then yes using the arrow keys will cause focus to switch to a new tab.
However, is focus is on a text field I have never seen the behaviour you describe.
Maybe it something to do with the fact that you are using AWT components. TextField and Choice are AWT components and should not be used in a Swing application. Use JTextField and JComboBox.

  • Up and Down Arrow Keys Not Working

    I have had the HP Pavilion g6t-1b00 CTO Notebook PC for a year or two now. I've been having a couple of problems with internet connectivity and putting my computer on "sleep".
    However, few days ago, my keyboard randomly started acting weirdly. When I would try to type certain letter/numbers, they would come out differently. 
    Ex. pressing the space bar would show up " ./M" instead
    I tried restarting my computer many times and installed a BiOS update which fixed all of my issues except for my up and down arrow keys. As of now, they have no function; I can't scroll with them and they don't seem to be taking on the role of another key. I have tried using the keys on different programs. Using the touch pad to scroll works but I still can't use the up and down keys.
    Is there anyway to get the up and down arrow keys to work again?
    This question was solved.

    Hello Larasoft,
    I understand you’re up and down arrow keys are not functioning, is that accurate? I will do all I can to help you with this issue.
    I want you to access the setup menu to test the keys out, see instructions below.
    1.       Shut down the computer.
    2.       Locate the F10 key across the top.
    3.       When you turn the computer back on immediately start tapping the F10 key repeatedly.
    4.       If successful you should be on setup utility screen. What’s different about this is you can only use you arrow keys to navigate.  
    5.       Try working the arrow keys  up and down on different menus and see if they work.
    6.       Once you tested it press F9 to setup defaults and then press F10 to save and exit.

  • Up and down arrow keys are not working properly when using SQL CLI on Linux

    Every time I hit up, down, left, and right arrow keys to return to a previous sql command I got ^[[D, please any hints to fix this issue?
    The backspace works fine with me. I tried to use stty to fix this issue with no luck.
    Thanks

    Which SQL client and Linux version are we talking about?
    Assuming you are using the Oracle sqlplus client... it does not support command line editing and history using the arrow keys. For this to work you will have to install a product called Readline Wrapper. See my answer at the General Database forum:

  • Problems with scrolling through premiere timeline using arrow keys and shift arrow

    This is a really weird problem in cs6.
    When I load a clip into the source monitor i can scroll throughit fine using the arrow keys, and shift arrows and my shuttle pro controller.
    When I place the same clip on to the timeline it really struggles to scroll using the arrows or the shuttle pro, its really kerky and sdlwo to scroll the timeline, which is really frstrating, becuase it can play the footage fine in the source monitor.
    The clips will playback fine, but scrolling through them just doesn't work as it should any ideas?
    Cheers
    Mike

    I changed my shuttle settings to make the shuttling more responsive:
    1 - 5 times second
    2 - 10
    3 - 15
    4 - 30
    5 - 45
    6 - 60
    7 - fast as possible
    At least I changed this a long time ago - don't know if these are the defaults or not.
    It'll only shuttle as fast as your system is responsive of course - so if you get instantaneous scrubbing by dragging the CTI in the timeline with the mouse, you should be able to get good performance with the shuttle. Of course that performance depends on the type of footage and how demanding it is on CPU to decode and whether youi have effects applied etc etc etc.
    I edit pretty much exclusively with Sony XDCAM EX 1080P 25 footage we've shot on EX3 and PMW-350 etc and I get very very fast performance on the timeline - no issues at all i7 6 core 4GHz with 24Gb ram and fairly fast RAID array for footage.

  • Globally map Ctrl   B and ctrl   F to left and right arrow keys, respectively

    Does anyone know how I would *globally* map Ctrl + B and ctrl + F to left and right arrow keys, respectively? This keystroke works for some applications, but not all. I'd like it to always work.

    So, it is now June and still no fix.  This is incredibly annoying when you are giving a professional presentation in front of an audience and the speaker wants to go back a slide.  It's enough to change presentation software.
    In truth, the Presentation Module in LR5 is vastly inferior to other dedicated software.  For instance, you can't add a text slide as a divider between "chapters," as far as I can figure out, you can't merge slideshows or go from one to another without exposing your entire screen, the order of slides is over-ridden by some predetermined metadata rather than being able to choose two catalogs and put them into one slideshow, deciding yourself which catalog should play first.
    Are any of these changes in the works?
    Any eta on the right/left arrow fix?
    This could be SO great.  I hope it is moving in that direction.

  • Using left and right arrow keys as accesskeys

    I am trying to remediate an online course and need to apply left arrow key to next button (advance to next page) and right arrow key to back button (return to previous page). Does anyone have javascript code that would allow this?

    This is already built into major browsers.  This assumes the browser history folder contains more than one page. If the browser's history folder is empty, nothing will happen.
    For Windows users:
    Alt+Left arrow = back one page.
    Alt+Right arrow = forward one page.

  • Why after i update my left and right arrow keys stop working

    my left and right arrow keys stoped working after i updated to Mavericks now the dont work

    Hello ccombs2014,
    It sounds like 2 of your keys are not working after updating to Mavericks. I found this section of an article for you to help troubleshoot this issue named:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1381
    Some keys don't work as expected
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Speech.
    Click the Text to Speech tab.
    If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
    Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
    Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
    In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
    If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
    If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
    Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
    Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
    From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
    If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
    Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working.  If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly.  Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • Why am I recently unable to use my mouse to scroll email topics or content?  I can only use the up and down arrows keys to scroll.

    Why am I recently unable to use my mouse to scroll email topics or content?  I can only use the up and down arrows keys to scroll. I am able to use my mouse to scroll through internet searches.  It only seems to have affected my email messages.

    Try a restart.
    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Oracle 10g and JAWS -- use of Up and Down Arrow keys

    We are in the process of converting an Oracle 6i application to 10g and applying Accessibility standards to our application so that it will work with the JAWS screen reader.
    The version of JAWS we are using is 7.10.452 Unicode, The Java Access Bridge version required is version 1.2.
    THis problem manifests itself when using the UP and Down arrow keys to move between rows in a mutli-record screen.
    The problem is that on using either the Up or Down key JAWS read the content of the current field before moving to the new record and announcing the prompt and content.
    Has any one got any solution to this.

  • I would like to capture L and R arrow key action when recording a captivate 5 project

    Hi All out there,
    I would like to capture L and R arrow key actions besides left or right mouse clicks.
    Enter is possible if a click has preceeded :-)
    Right mouse interactions are captured :-)
    and now the tricky one, what about those L and R arrow keys?
    In the user interface that I capture there is the possibility to  increase or decrease values by use of the arrow keys on the keyboard.
    These actions need to be captured in the demo, assessment and training mode.
    Can you help me with the needed settings to succeed?
    PS: I have found out that up down arrow keys are not possible as this is a  functionality that eould be taken over by browsers like Explorer for  navigation.
    I am hoping U out there can help !!!
    Stephanie
