Linked Containers- ability to avoid orphaned text lines

Once again visiting the Pagination example.... Is there any
elegant way to avoid having orphaned lines from spilling over to
the next container. I would love to be able to indicate that a
paragraph should always have at least two lines in a single
container, or some other solution that is similar... maybe an
attribute on a paragraph or span that indicates,
"keepLinesTogehter".
I realize that I could do some sort of calculation on the
number of textlines after a container is updated, and then
essentially modify the paragraphs to have line breaks to force an
adjustment, but this seems like a real hack.
Any info is greatly appreaciated, and a solution would simply
make my day.
Thanks,
Tim
Anything?

I'm afraid that for now you are left with the real hack. I
think this would be a good feature, but its not trivial, especially
in an environment that supports editing.

Text selection problem in linked containers

Hi,
I get a strange behavior on the selection of text in a textFlow with several linked containers (from the latest SVN version it seems).
The problem occurs on the following case: http://lafabrick.com/labz/tlfTest/ (source code enabled)
If I select some text in container D to A (or vice versa): display of text selection is correct.
The problems are:
- If I select some text in the containers B or C, and that I move the selection to the right or left: the container is moving ...
- If I select some text in the containers B or C, and that I move the selection to the up or down: the display of the selection is not normal (I have a "blinking selection")

Hi Richard,
Would you like to said that this fixe is not present on the SVN (/trunk) ?
In this case it's of course a bad news for me: my app can't takes all benefits of TLF for now (and for MAX...).
But a good news for all ! It means that TLF is perhaps soon to release !
Thanks a lot.

Does any iPhone have the ability to talk to text off-line?

Would like to know if any iPhones have the ability to talk to text off-line?

Speech to text as it currently works takes a powerful computer and a large database. It will awhile before phones are that powerful and have that much storage. Based on the trends toward cloud storage and constant connectivity, I don't see it as something companies will be interested in developing.

PLD - SO needs to display Text line

Dear All,
Our customer's marking documents has text type lines. When I tried to print it on A/R invoice and A/R down payment invoice, it works good. When I tried to print it on Sales Order, text lines have always been printed first. Then items and subtotals. I use exactly the same way to print it.
Field_1: Sys Var 157 (line type)
Field_2: Field_1 == 'T'
Field_3: Field_2 != 'T'
Field_4: Sales Order - Rows.Text, link to Field_2
Other item fields link to Field_3
One more question for PLD is, I found in system PLD almost all the fields link to itself. It there any specfic reason we have to do that?
Thanks a lot.

Yuka

Wrapping multiple text lines

This may be difficult to explain, but I am not seeming to find the exact wording in my searches so I am going to ask here...
I have several lines of text boxes at the end of a form, and rather than making it all one big block of text and wrapping text within the box, there are several individual lines of text, and I would like to limit the length of each line to the display, and then wrap it to the next text line if it is too long.
Thanks for the help.

Yes, it is a form. the end of the form looks similar to:
Describe this thing: ________________________________________________
so in order to follow the lines (rather than a text block that wrapped and could be offset from the lines on the original application), each one became a new field. I am trying to figure a way, like in illustrator, to have two or more boxes linked together so when the user finishes the first line it automatically goes to the next, and so on till the end line where it just wont let them go on unless they tab to the next field.

Yup, you guys pointed me in the right direction.
I changed my adjustmentListener to the following:
JScrollBar scrollBar = (JScrollBar) e.getSource();
int endLoc = document.getLength();
try {
    Rectangle end = outputArea.modelToView(endLoc);
    if (end != null) {
        int n = scrollBar.getValue() + scrollBar.getVisibleAmount();
        boolean locked = (end.y >= n && n <= (end.y + end.height));
} catch (BadLocationException ex) {
}By comparing scrollbar position with the visible rectangle of the end of the document, I can now easily tell if the user has moved the tracker back or not.
To go to the next step of automatically pausing scrolling whenever the user is moving the slider back, I also had to disable the automatic scrolling performed by DefaultCaret. Because there was no way to tell if the user was scrolling or if the output was adjusting from the adjustmentListener, I also had to flag whenever I was autoscrolling.
The end result is a JTextPane that can be appended to at all, and locked by the user by using the slider. If new data arrives, the window is not scrolled, and any text selection the user has is not cleared. Perfect!

Text lines in the BW query variables screen

Hi gurus.
The bw users ask me to display some text lines in the BW query variables prompt.
The text lines are saved in a custom table.
The only idea that I've got is to use customer exit text variables and fill them in CMOD when I_step = 1.
I don't like this solution (I should have more the 10 text lines and so I have to mantain more than 10 Text variables) but I can't find any other solution.
Any new idea or solution?
Is there in Bex enviroment a functionality (that I don't know) for doing somenthing like this ?
Thanks fo any help.
S.

Hi,
to resolve it you should create all the prompts in the BW query. You are using a query with 2 parameters and then a dynamic list of values. the dynamic list of values can only work after you entered the other values.

Sales Order Text Lines in SAP Query

I have a requirement to output several text lines into a SAP query based around sales orders.
I have included some code to read the details into my query and get no syntax errors, however the report gives a blank output for each of the text fields included, despite there definitely being some text with the specified attribute ID and text object in the table STXL.
Where am I going wrong?
Please find the coding below for one of the text field I'm trying to extract:

Hi -
Please check in debuging.
check the value of TDNAME correctly populated with sales order no and sales order item.
You can cross check with the table STXH with TDNAME and see if any entries is available for TDID 'ZAT2' as your case.
Here are sample code.

How to create a subtotal or text line in a service sales order ?

Hi ,
is there a way to add text line in sales order for service ? when we switch from item sales order to service sales order , the "type" column disappear , and we can not create line other than service line . we use B12007A SP01 PL07
i've not seen this limitation in the B1 help . is it a setup problem ? or is it impossible to add those lines to service sales order ?
thanks for help
regards

Hi,
This is not setup problem this is limitation you cannot add line as text or subtotal using type option in service order like item type order. If you want to add text for your service line you can do this through linewise udf.
Thanks

My group box is causing problems when searching for a text line in a text file.

I am developing a booking system, so for this I need to ensure that no two clients can book the same appointment slot. So, on testing my code which prevents double booking, the system doesn't seem to find the text line being searched for in the text file
when it (purposefully) should.
I have tried isolating the problem using breakpoints, and I've found that when the 'SearchLine' (referring to my code below) does not include the 'TimeComboBox.text' piece and instead this value is written into the code, the system is able to find the SearchLine
without any problems. But, when assigning the group box's value to a variable and using this in the SearchLine instead, or without even using a loop and just doing a simple line by line search, the program can't find this line of text in the file.
I'm lost for ideas. I have tried everything I can think of. Could anyone make any suggestions as for what is the problem with my group box? (I'll explain the code beneath it).
'Setting the value of the SearchLine (which is a String)
SearchLine = String.Concat(DateTimePicker1.Value.Date & " " & TimeComboBox.text)
Dim FoundApp As Boolean
Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(basicfilepath & "Text Files\Client Booked Appointment DatesTimes.txt")
FoundApp = False
'Reading the file's contents and checking for the SearchLine
Do While (objReader.Peek() <> -1) or (FoundApp = True)
If (TextLine = SearchLine) Then
'Line contains SearchLine. Appointment already exists.
FoundApp = True
Else
'Line doesn't contain SearchLine. Carry on searching.
Msgbox("Line not found.")
End if
Loop
Explanation
When the line is searched for, the 'FoundApp' value must be set to 'True' when it is found. If it is not found, it remains false.
To isolate the problem, I've displayed the SearchLine in a message box in the past to make sure that the correct line of text is being searched for.
In basic terms, my program is searching for the exact line of text which exists in the text file, but for some reason it is not coming up as 'Found'. The error occurs when the group box's value is used. The text file which is being read is
definitely correct. Please help, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi
It would appear that your snippet doesn't actually read the file at all.
Here is my test which works fine.
Option Strict On
Option Infer Off
Option Explicit On
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim SearchLine As String = "18:09:38 : XTaskSettings.Load PARAMS: begin"
Dim FoundApp As Boolean = False
Dim TextLine As String = Nothing
Dim objReader As New IO.StreamReader(Application.StartupPath & "\Data\Report Q1.txt")
FoundApp = False
Do While (objReader.Peek() <> -1) Or (FoundApp = True)
' this was missing
TextLine = objReader.ReadLine
If (TextLine = SearchLine) Then
'Line contains SearchLine. Appointment already exists.
FoundApp = True
MsgBox("Line found.")
Else
'Line doesn't contain SearchLine. Carry on searching.
MsgBox("Line not found.")
End If
Loop
End Sub
End Class

Dropping characters in text lines (FM8)

I'm experiencing problems with dropped characters in text lines. Also, I've noticed the history doesn't seem to log all changes made to text lines. The problem can be duplicated as follows:
1. Open a new portrait blank document and add an anchored frame. (recorded in history)
2. Add a text line inside the anchored frame from the Tools Palette. In the text line, type "1234" (recorded in history).
3. Save the file. (history cleared)
4. Click the cursor after the "4" in the text line and hit a carriage return to create a new text line. (not recorded in history)
5. In the new text line, type "1234567890"(not recorded in history)
6. Save the file.
7. Refresh the screen (cntl l) and the second text line now reads "12346890" (dropped the 5 and 7). Printing the file in steps 5 and 6 also show the 5 and 7 are missing.
8. Add a new text line inside the anchored frame from the Tools Palette. In the text line, type "12345" (recorded in history).
9. Save the file. (history cleared)
10. Click the cursor after the "5" in the text line from step 8 and hit a carriage return to create a new text line. (not recorded in history)
11. In the new text line, type "1234567890"(not recorded in history)
12. Save the file.
13. Refresh the screen and the second text line now reads "12345790" (dropped the 6 and 8).
Has anyone else seen this problem (or can duplicate it)?
Also, can someone explain why some of the steps above are not recorded in the history.
FYI, while trying to find a repeatable sequence to demonstrate this problem, Frame crashed on me.
I'm running a trial version of Frame 8, version 8.0p273, with XP Pro, on a fairly new Dell Optiplex 740.
Thanks,
Jeff Schweiner

Hi Jeff,
I have now tried what you're doing and get the same result!
I have also added a text line with characters a to z. After saving ad doing a ctrl-l, the character after the last one, and the character second after that, in the previous line, was removed. (I first typed "abcd", saved, made a new line, typed "abcdefghi", saved, made ctrl-l, the characters "e" and "g" were removed).
I have the same version of FrameMaker + SGML, but this is a licensed version, running on Win 2000.

Dynamic Text line spacing issue

Hi, in my Flash movie (CS3) I want all text to be selectable.
When I select 'static' and 'selectable', I have the following issues:
- Some of the text does not fit into the available (scrolling required to see the end of text)
- This is larger than when in Flash.
When I use 'dynamic' text, I have the following issues:
- The line spacing displays different in the exported swf than it does in Flash (line spacing is much greater in the swf)
- I am a designer so the appearance / positioning of the text is crucial
Is this common?
Is there any way to make the text in Flash and swf appear consistent?
Many thanks

First of all, maybe you don't know it, but static text can't be made selectable even in theory. Therefore what you're seeing when you click "Selectable" option, is a dynamic text. As for line spacing, I don't see any difference between Flash CS4 and resulting SWF. The only strange thing I've found is the necessarity to enlarge the bounding rectangle when I change the text type from static to dynamic. Otherwise bottom line of text just disappears. It looks like a bug. Also I don't see "Autosize" option being working here in CS4. I doubleclick on bottom right corner of the text block, small square is transformed into a diamond, and bounding rect is "autosized" around the text block. But the bottom text line disappears just as I deselect the text object. All it looks some stange...

Problem in formatting of long text -- line break not recognized.

Hi ,
We have a PO smartform in our SRM system and we are facing problem with formatting of long text on the smartform for long texts maintained for the PO.
for ex, we maintain the long text as --
"this is long text for item 1.
1. this is line 1.
2. this is line 2."
On the smartform it is displayed as --
this is long text for item 1. 1. this is line 1. 2. this is line 2.
So basically, the line breaks in the text are not considered in the smartform .
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue ??
Thanks.

Hello Harmeet,
Which Std. FM are you using to fetch the PO texts? If the PO doesn't exist in your system, i'm afraid you cannot use Include Texts as mentioned by Harsh.
As an alternative you'll have to create a table & pass the text lines to it! I don't think SmartForms are not smart enough to identify new-line character.
BR,
Suhas
