JTextField's - setting editable false, but without greying out the area?

Is this at all possible? Is there any other way to go about it? Or is the only way to make a textfeild un-edditable using the setEditable(false); command.. and sticking it with the grey area?
Sorry for the weird/dumb/annoying question..
Thanks anyway heh..

all i wanted was an answer and this dude just flames
me.I think your need to adjust your sensitivity downward by an order of magnitude. I didn't see anything in Joachim's response that remotely resembled a flame. He simply pointed out that your requested goal violates standard usability principles (rather politely, I might add). You referred to your own question in a more derogatory manner than any respondent.
Personally, I think his advice was very helpful. You shouldn't violate standard usability principles unless you're just deliberately trying to confuse your users, which is not something many of us would care to give advice on how to do...

How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

Search help - Make a field default without grey-out

Hi,
I have a custom-search help, where in the dialog-popup I'd like to default a value without grey-out.
If I import from memory via parameter ID, then the default value is ok, but it's greyed out.
If I don't import it, then it's initial, but not greyed out.
Is it possible?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Sri & Sanjay,
Thanks a lot for your help.
Unfortunately I cannot use the default value, as this should be dynamic based on another field on the screen. I tried if I use default, and it's not greyed-out.
If I use IMP flagged, or import this value in the user exit from memory, then it's always greyed-out.
It seems it's not possible unless I create my screen in the pop-up.
Thanks,
Peter

The copy function under the edit menu is gone (greyed out) and the short-cut, "command + c" doesn't word. I can only copy by using the copy button on the formatting toolbar, which is slow & annoying. All after I ungraded to Maverick. I've tried several different solutions. Any suggestions? I've tried several solutions, but nothing has worked so far...

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Music wont play on my phone it says its there but its greyed out and wont play what do i do? Ive already re downloaded the music but its not playing on my iphone.

Ok i think i have found out how to do it. Unplug your i phone, go to settings and then reset then reset all data and settings. This will warn you that it is going to erase eveything on your phone.
DO NOT BACK UP BEFORE HAND
then restart your phone and restore back up from when you donwloaded the new IOS5. This should sort out your problem :-)

How to disable (grey-out) the ticks of a JSlider?

Hi everyone,
In my GUI, I have a JSlider that I want to be disabled (greyed out)
because it should be only actived on my application next version.
(It is important though to have it to preserve GUI appearence).
Problem is that I was unable to greyout the ticks even though
already managed to grey out the slider and the number labels.
Right now, it is pretty uggly to have a partial disabled slider,
because due to ticks not being disabled.
Questions:
1) Does anyone have an idea of how to do it?
A small part of my code is shown below:
JSlider dynSl = new JSlider();
dynSl.setMajorTickSpacing(1);
dynSl.setValue(0); //Default
dynSl.setMaximum(7);
dynSl.setMinimum(0);
dynSl.setPaintLabels(true);
dynSl.setPaintTicks(true);
dynSl.setFont(new java.awt.Font("Dialog", 0, 9));
dynSl.setSnapToTicks(true);
dynSl.setEnabled(false);
// small code just to put the numbers of the slider smaller
Enumeration enum = dynSl.getLabelTable().elements();
while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
JLabel elem = (JLabel)enum.nextElement();
elem.setFont(new Font("Dialog",0,8));
elem.setEnabled(false);
2) If not possible, how do I change the colour of a JSlider (including
the Ticks)?
My idea is to change Slider's colour to the same grey colour one used
to disable it, making at the end the slider look as if it was disabled.
Thanks in advance,
Jorge

Hi again,
Thanks for the help.
I was trying to avoid not having the ticks at all but it seems to be
the best choise because I could not solve the problem of greying out
them.
I did some more troubleshooting though and for my surprise, if I use
the same code alone, i.e, a simple frame with just the slider it works
fine. I even thought that it was related with having Windows LnF as
opposed to Metal (Java) LnF, but that was not the problem.
The only thing it comes to mind, is that there may be some problem by including the slider on a GridBagLayout !?!?!?
Anyway,
What has no simple solution, solved is! :-)

Grey out the purchase group fields in SRM 7.0 ?

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement where in we need to grey out the purchasing group field in the item section of shopping cart screen . we are using SRM 7.0 portal. So that users cannot change the defualt pruchasing group.
Is there a way where we can make this invisible without making any changes to the standard code.
We have checked the below path, we are not getting the correct field for purchasing group in that.
SRM -> SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic settings -> Extension and Field Control (Personalization) -> Control Actions -> Display Standard Metadata for Actions on Substructure Level Regards
Any Help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

How can I grey out the 'Next' button until a user clicks 'Submit'?

Hi guys,
despite how I say it or display it in slides, users don't read the instructions before the quiz. This results in them doing the quiz and then asking me why they scored zero when they answered all the questions. So my question is, how can I disable/deactivate/grey-out the Next button until a user clicks Submit after answering the question?
I've got Captivate 6.1 on a Windows platform.
Advice appreciated.
Carl

Hello Rod,
thanks for your answer - I should think more laterally in future.
In my testing, another question has arisen - how do I get the Next button behind the Clear button? It sounds stupid but I can't get the Next button behind the Clear. I go in to the Master Slide, click on Next to highlight it, and then move it either by the mouse or with the arrow button so that it sits under the Clear button. While Next is still highlighted I click on the button in the toolbar 'Send selected objects backward' to be sure, so that I see 'Clear'. When I go back to the Filmstrip, all I see is 'Next' and when I preview the slides all I see is 'Next' - what am I missing here? What have I failed to do? What am I not understanding?
Advice appreciated.
Thanks

Many images in wikipedia are not shown. Typically some are greyed-out, and are of the form data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAA

Most images in wikipedia are not visible. Icons are ok.
Looking at page info, the greyed-out ones are of type Background in the list and type PNG Image in the text below them.
Example:
data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAoAAAALCAMAAABxsOwqAAAAGXRFWHRTb2Z0d2FyZQBBZG9iZSBJbWFnZVJlYWR5ccllPAAAAGBQTFRF////R2uZMmGd5rp2boqvMFyS9unUTXWr5KQ/N2mn/Pr42Jg14Zstl6a80K93XXiVooVQ57VnpLnW4a1a36ZMr7Cwgpm5PXGw78mO+O/g1t7n5Orxk6zMvMne7/Dw6+zt5K6gdAAAAAF0Uk5TAEDm2GYAAABdSURBVHheHcpFAgMxEANBDZhhmQP//2Uc90V1EICrLuti0YqnyORrbLSrWPHJ/ukn8bkzbrnVD/MwpjQOb+B2hyvbQe7BTiG8ZmYqUOLglA0rCrcJxpiCz049/f4A9ZID96SyhDEAAAAASUVORK5CYII=

i was able to get it to work from a suggestion in another thread: if you write a JSFL that goes through all your bitmaps and makes sure they do not uset he default compression of the document, but instead use custom compression (it can match the default however). this worked for me
