  • How to add selection tool? (NOT selection-and-text-edit tool)

    I need to add the selection tool to my Acrobat XI interface.
    The icon for this tool is an arrow.
    I do NOT want the tool whose icon is an arrow along with a text-edit cursor.  I already have that, and it doesn't serve all my selection needs.  For example, I can't use it to "window" to select several objects at once.
    How can I add this tool to my toolbars / to my interface?

    The problem with this is that the tool doesn't appear in the tools pane.  I can't find the tool anywhere, but I know that it exists, because at some point I did somehow manage to see it either in the tools pane or in the Quick Tools area.  It does exist in Acrobat XI, right?  If so, please tell me how to find it.

  • Fonts are missing in Text Edit

    What can I do to add more font selections in Text Edit?
    I used to have a standard set of fonts in Text Edit but now they are all gone. Now all I have are "Hei," "Kai" and "BiauKai" in my font options. So I went to Font Book and enabled a few of my favorite fonts but when I reopen Text Edit, those fonts don't show up.
    I also have problems with Microsoft Word for Mac 2008. For some reason, all of my fonts show up in Word but it works so slow. I don't have the patience to deal with it.
    I need to finish writing papers. I need your advice.

    Open the Font Book Application.
    Select fonts > File > Validate fonts. Edit > Resolve duplicates.
    Font book Prefs > Activating fonts > Automatic or not?
    Check the collections On or Off.
    Expect MS Office to install duplicates and generally stuff things up.
    Restart your Mac.

  • Text Edit (print size small)

    I try to print a document (Rich) I'm using a Canon MP970 Printer.   (Web pages, pics) print out fine.   My Text Edit fonts always come out small.
    I up the percent to 120% (File>Page Set-up)...and to No avail....I've also made the fonts bigger.  (Apple) Command-Plus sign +...though they appear large in Text Edit, they still come out small and if I up the size they run off the right side of the paper.    The margins on the Left seem to be much wider than what I've selected in Text Edit.   Any ideas of what to do?   thanks

    Choose "Wrap to Page" rather than "Wrap to Window" in the TextEdit View menu.

  • Continuous Text Edits in Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    I just upgraded to Adobe Acrobat X Pro from version 9 and I'm running into an issue relating to commenting an editing a PDF. In version 9, you could simply select the "Text Edits" button and make continuous edits in a PDF (document created in InDesign) and then send those back. Now with version X, I can't seem to find a way to make continuous edits without having to select the tool over and over again for each individual edit. The "Replace (Ins)" icon works, but again, it takes twice as long. You have to now select the text and then select the "Replace (Ins)" icon and then type your change and then start all over again. Is there a way to enable text editing without having to go back and select the icon over and over again which reduces efficiency considerably?
    Thanks so much for your help!

    Or, if I knew how to change defaults for add text box, that would wok just as well. Thanks
    for any help!

  • After placing a new text box in my document, typing new text, clicking away, then coming back to edit the text, I am unable to get my cursor to reappear within that text box. I can only select the box itself. I cannot select the text. Where is my cursor?

    After placing a new text box in my document, typing new text, clicking away, then coming back to edit the text, I am unable to get my cursor to reappear within that text box. I can only select the box itself. I cannot select the text. Where is my cursor?

    Even simpler than that.
    Clicking once in a text box selects it.
    Clicking once in a selected text box places the insertion point in the box.
    The clicks do not need to be close enough in time to be read as a double click.
    The same behaviour applies to table cells in Pages and in Numbers.

  • How can labview update the string control (text-edit box) after we have pressed the carriage return key on the keyboard during text-editing within that box?

    Dear readers,
    I have been trying to work out how to get labview to detect the event when a 'string' control has been modified, where the user has finished editing the string either by 1) pressing the enter key on the keyboard, or by 2) taking the focus away from the string control again. For example.. if I use the mouse to click on the string control and then I type 1234 into the box, I would like to have a routine that does something once the user hits the Enter key of the keyboard, or when the user takes the focus away from the string control again by clicking on something else. I would like the routine to respond even when the user didn't change anything in the text box (such as when we mouse-click on the edit box to go into edit mode, and then mouse-click on something else to remove the focus with no changes to the contents in edit-box).
    The purpose of my routine is to have a edit-box for a user to change for example the centre-frequency of a vector network analyser, so that the centre-frequency of the network analyser can change once the user finishes entering a new value in the text-edit box by hitting Enter key after the number is keyed in. Even if the user has clicked on the edit box, but changes their mind by mouse-clicking on something else to remove focus from the edit box, I would still like labview to detect the event when the control loses focus, so that the centre frequency can be updated anyway (to the same value that was already in the edit box).
    So far, I've tried set the string control option to 'limit to single line', so that I can try to scan for a carriage return .. '\n' ... pattern in the string. Unfortunately this doesn't work because labview doesn't seem to attach the '\n' to the end of that single line.
    Could someone please suggest ways to set a flag when a user hits Enter during text-edit mode of a string control, or when focus has been removed from the string control?
    While I've only described my problem for controlling a single control parameter on the gpib device, I'd like to make this feature work so that I can do the same kind of thing with other control parameters as well.
    Thanks so much in advance.
    Kenny

    Hi Kenny,
    instead of using the event structure, you can directly achieve to what you want by the KeyFocus property of the string control.
    - Enable Limit to single line option
    - Create the property KeyFocus in read mode and connect an indicator
    Each time you click on the string to modify it KeyFocus is True; when you click away or hit Enter KeyFocus is False.
    You can toggle your settings when KeyFocus changes from True to False.

  • Text edit app not working after Secupdate 007

    Pismo running 10.3.9 showing issues with textedit application which worked fine prior to update.
    When attempting to open an existing .txt file the beach ball spins for awhile and then does nothing. Finder window stays in front. When running through the dock, it shows textedit open, but textedit will not appear in menu bar.
    I thought it might just be prior documents. After force quitting, I can open text edit app on its own with a new page showing. I can type in it, but when I attempt to save, the same issue shows. It just hangs.
    Ran applejack and
    I trashed textedit.plist thinking corrupted, but to no avail.
    Any ideas on how to get this going?
    Thanks!

    Hanuman,
    If you have cleaned all the possible cache files with AppleJack (plus run the other functions), one possible fix for problems that develop after a Security Update or OSX version update is to download/install the Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update on top of your installed 10.3.9.
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcombinedupdate1039.html
    If you don't have another User account, create one named 'Test' if you wish, then log into the 'Test' account. If TextEdit works normally, then you know your problem lies in your Home account. A quick and dirty test for solving some problems in your Home account is to go to your Home account <yourusername>/Library and drag the Preferences folder to the desktop, then log out/in to your Home account and see if the problem is resolved. If corrected, the problem lies in the Preferences folder on the desktop. Most prefs will be re-created as you use the computer, but save the old Preferences folder in the event there is one or more pref that you want to stick back in the new Prefs folder.

  • I am unable to see text in boxes on web pages after selecting from a drop down menu. eg country, however typed answers are visible

    In the box below which asks the question "This happened" I selected 'every time Firefox opened" and no text appeared in the text box. After selecting a few times on different answers they started to work except for answer three which I have selected now but the box appears clear, that is, no text is visible on my screen.

    I should also note something that I did that I think may be causing the default wiki and blog theme to not appear. In Server Admin, selecting Web, then going to Settings and on the Web Services tab, I changed the Data Store path to:
    /Library/WebServer/Documents
    I did this thinking it would create the html pages in the directory that the placeholder page was indicating that I should put my web page, but I think that is wrong, now. Does anyone know the default path for the data store?

  • In trying to edit a track - I want to "Delete and Move" the track to automatically fill the area that I deleted - However, after selecting a section to delete - the "Delete and Move" option is grayed out. How do I fix this?

    In trying to edit a track - I want to "Delete and Move" the track to automatically fill the area that I deleted - However, after selecting a section to delete - the "Delete and Move" option is grayed out. How do I fix this?

    Thank you for your attempt to help me. I appreciate that.
    I think I figured out how to fix it-
    I found that if I only delete a small amount at the beginning and at the end of the section that I want to remove - and then highlight that section - Then (and only then) does the "Delete and Move" function work to remove the unwanted section and automatically close the gap between the surrounding sections. I was trying to select a whole section and could only delete it - and then manually move it.
    Problem solved.

  • Selection screen texts missing

    Hi friends,
    I am working on a BDC program and when I execute my program, I see that the texts are missing in the selection screen. Can anyone tell me what should be done in order to display the texts in the selection screen in BDC.
    Thanks,
    RAJ.

    Hi Raj,
    1. i suppose u are using
      include bdcrecx1.
    2. Due to this,
       u will have to MANUALLY
       type them / enter them
       thru the menu GOTO-->TEXT ELEMENTS
    3. Since its an include,
       the system does not automaticlly recognise it.
    4. However, u can check FROM DICT Option.
    5. Those which are manual,
      u will have to write them / enter them.
    regards,

  • How can I edit imported audio track? After selecting and deleting region and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted part! What am I doing wrong?

    How can I edit imported audio track? After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
    What am I doing wrong?

    After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
    What am I doing wrong?
    How exactly are you doing this?
    When I cut out a part of an audio region, then drag the remaining parts together, so they are touching, the track will skip the cut out section when playing the file.  Also, if I select the remaining parts of the region and use the command "Edit > join regions". This will create a new audio file with the cut out part deleted.
    You should see this prompt, when you are joining the regions:

  • Text starts to move  after selection

    my dynamic text starts moving from left to right after selection that content in text field ,please reply

    Hi,
    It happens when text exceeds the width of textfield. If you have no concern with selection of the text, you can keep selectable property false.
    textFieldInstance.selectable = false.
