Missing Text Input In IE7

I have having an issue in IE7 on Vista where some text input
is not accepted. When I start typing, some of the characters do not
show up. I have tested this also in Firefox and it works fine.
I have narrowed the problem down to the HTML wrapper, but
cannot figure out how to fix it. When I go directly to the .swf
file, it works fine, but the HTML wrapper causes this error. Has
anyone else seen this or know how to fix it? Thank you.

I also am having difficulty with certain keys when running
flex in an HTML wrapper, I'm using it in the .Net WebBrowser
control. In that scenario , the up, down, left, right, and enter
keys do not work for Textinput fields. When I run it in IE 7
standalone, I have no problems. When embedded in a WinForm inside
of the WebBroswer control... it doesn't work so well. Not sure what
the deal is.

Missing texts in WEB with F4-help combined with variable input.

I've defined a characteristic with text : short text, medium length text and long text. The texts are language independent.
I've defined a variable for this characteristic and I've defined a BEX-report that provides a variable-filter for this characteristic in the filter area. I've also set the property Display as to text or Key and Text
When I start the report the prompt-window appears and then I can perform F4 on the input field for this characteristic. Then a selection box opens showing the key and all texts - short desription, medium descr. and long desc.
If I use this report in the web-Application designer or if I launch this report directly in the WebBrowser I'll also get a selection box but no texts appear.
What can I do to see these texts also in WEB ? Where can I influence the search help for the web (in BEX it works perfectly) ?
Additional information: By defining the info object there is a tab for Business Explorer settings. For general settings I've choosen Text for the property Display. What is really strange is that in Bex-Explorer the property Display as always shows Key as a default although I've entered Text in RSA1. I've also inspected other characteristics where there are no missing texts. Here I've found out that in the info object there is Text choosen as attribut for Display -> in the Bex itself Text is shown as a default too.

Hello there,
I am having a similar problem but I have found this is due to either of two reasons.
1) The object is compounded
2) The compounded object is authorisation relavant and the security is stopping the masterdata being read properly.
Hope this helps narrow down your search.

Text input options missing

Hi,
After running some updates yesterday, the "show text input options" is no longer available in the options. Neither can I select suretype when writing a message. Would appreciate some help.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Had to re-boot after removing an application and everything back to normal! What bugs me is that my service provider tech never brought up a re-boot but rather wanted me to delete all my data and start all over!

Text input popup

I am writing a simple RSS reader app in Flex (for AIR).
I have a "change feed" button in my app. I want this to
launch a popup with text input, to take the URL as a string and
return it to my main app. This seems like something that should be
incredibly, and I'm missing something. Any help would be
apreciated.

You can create such a popup with a TitleWindow and
PopupManager:
------------ MyPopup.mxml ----------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:TitleWindow xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:TextInput width="200" />
<mx:Button label="Done"
click="PopUpManager.removePopUp(this);"/>
</mx:TitleWindow>
--------------------- Test.mxml ----------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
import mx.core.IFlexDisplayObject;
import components.MyPopup;
private function showMyPopup():void {
var helpWindow:IFlexDisplayObject =
PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, MyPopup, false);
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Button click="showMyPopup();" label="Show My
Popup"/>
</mx:Application>

Text input boxes same colour as background - so "invisible", and button text or buttons often missingt

I have turned off all addons/extensions/plugins - still the same problem:
1: Text input boxes appear to be the same colour as the background - and hence "invisible"
2: Clickable buttons on websites are often invisible, or if they display have no text; e.g. button to right of google search ("go" button?) is seen as a plain box with no text - although button is clickable.
3: Google webpage usually has an image - this is missing, and merely has "UK" to the top left of the input box.
4: On this page for example I can see directly above this text box two vertical black lines - it appears to be a button with a pop-up "insert a link" - it can obviously be clicked when I mouse over it.

Text input = function

Hello:
I am trying to get a text input field to perform a function.
I have a training animation and I want the learner to input
the correct password in a text field. if the text is correct I
would like a gotoAndPlay nextscene function to occur.
any suggestion?
Thank you all

Thank you
I tried that and it did not work, maybe I am missing a small
detail.
My code is:
if (Pass_txt.text == "17930") {
gotoAndPlay ("scene5",1);
now I have placed this code on the main timeline on its own
layer.
What I am expecting is when I input the last digit of the
17930, the animation will move to the next scene.
This is a machine simulation and the input is a password.
Thanks again for any suggestions.

Some offerings are missing user input, some are not mapping to activites

Seemingly out of the blue my system has stopped mapping request offering answers to (manual) activities (mapping to the SR itself works), neither OotB properties or custom properties. This only happens when submitting them from the portal (ALL
offerings)
Also, some requests are even missing user input (and obviously no mapping is possible).
This issue seem to affect all users. Even admins
I have tried restarting the web content server and also the website on the sharepoint server. I have also tried creating a brand new template and offering in a brand new MP.
I have been able to track down a ca. point in time this issue arose, but not found anything in logs anywhere (except SMPortalTrace). Checked web content server event log and website log, SQL log, event log on both management servers.
I have checked the SMPortalTrace.log and for every request submitted I get an error (not visible in the portal) - some is in danish, so I have translated at the best of my ability:
Failed to parse the description with links., System.ArgumentNullException: [ArgumentNull_Generic]
Ressourcestrings for troubleshooting is not available. Keys and arguments often contains enough information to start the troubleshooting a problem. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=106663&Version=5.1.30214.00&File=mscorlib.dll&Key=ArgumentNull_Generic
ParameterName: input
At System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches (String input)
At Microsoft.Enterprisemanagement.ServiceManager.Portal.RequestOfferingSilverlightModule.UriParser.ParseDescription(string description)
The system is SCSM 2012 R2 UR2 (except the SP part of the portal)
Update:
I found that if the user input is missing even from the SR then the error does not present itself in the SMPortalTrace.log, only if the user input goes through (but is not mapped to activities).
http://codebeaver.blogspot.dk/

The issue seems to be related to a syntactically valid type projection in the Service Request form (customized) - I added a component to the existing projection. As the template that a request offering is based on has a reference to this projection I guess
the code that creates the Service Request submitted from the portal somehow ignores the "unwanted" type projection component, and instead of not submitting the request it continues but is unable to map into child activities. I will try and reproduce
this in more detail.
Solution: Revert to original type projection in the SR form and everything went back to normal.

Keyboard hiding Text Input on Android

Good Day,
I have a mobile Flex Application, that isn't scrolling to show a text input and the softkeyboard at the same time. I have check the app.xml file and any other documentation about the use of the keyboard, and it _should_ be working.
I have <fullscreen>false</fullscreen>
and in the main application mxml file: resizeForSoftKeyboard="true"
however whenever I go into view that needs to show the keyboard and the input together, the keyboard still covers the input. The scrolling never fires.
Has anyone experienced this? Or have some other solution that I should try?
Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob,
I think the app.xml could also have:
<softKeyboardBehavior>none</softKeyboardBehavior>
specified/added (hint: it could be missing from commented defaults in app.xml)

Pulling information from a table based on text input

Hello,
I was wondering if it was possible to find cells on another table based on the text input of one cell. For example, I have a 2nd table where I have all the properties of a monster, say a wolf. In the first table I want to enter different monsters multiple times but I don't want to copy and paste their properties in every single time, I just want it to draw the properties from the properties table whenever I type the monster id. If I type =Wolf Damage, Numbers immediately locates the correct number to plug in from the table, because the table axis are listed as Wolf and Damage. But I can't figure out how to make a text input part of a cell reference. If I type "Wolf" in B2, and then do the same thing =B2 Damage, it's obviously a sytax error. I've tried different combinations of =T(B2) Damage, but I feel like I'm missing the syntax to convert a string into an actual cell location.
Thank you,
ai48

Would be a good idea to download (thru the Help menu),
*_iWork Formulas And Functions User Guide_*
and read carefully the description of the function VLOOKUP.

Can't get a handle to the text input bean I just created

I create text input bean this way
OAMessageTextInputBean bigBean = (OAMessageTextInputBean) pageContext.getWebBeanFactory().createWebBean(pageContext,OAWebBeanConstants.MESSAGE_TEXT_INPUT_BEAN,"BIGBEAN");
and right after this I do
OAMessageTextInputBean bigBeanJustCreated = (OAMessageTextInputBean) webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("BIGBEAN");
It is not found!
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Anatoliy

Sumit,
Thank you very much for quick response.
Your suggestion did work.
Could you please clarify something for me - while working on the problem I realized that I can add text input bean to either PageLayoutBean or message Component bean? Is this correct?
And one more query if you please - how can I get all the beans(text input beans) under a parent messageComponentbean?
Should I say something like
For example, in previous example the beans that I am creating are under messageComponent bean
OAMessageComponentLayoutBean componentBean = (OAMessageComponentLayoutBean) webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("MainRN");
Enumeration e = pageContext.getWebBeanValueNames(componentBean);...
Thank you.

Conditional for a text input box NOT being null? Sorry for asking so many questions!

Okay, here's the situation. I'm creating a simulation of a form on which there are several text input boxes, 7 of which are mandatory fields. I know I can use a conditional to check whether the box has nothing in it by creating a null variable with no value and doing "if [box variable] is equal to [null variable] then", but the problem is that the validation captions I need to show need to be shown in order, that is to say that the caption for entering a value for the first box will always be shown if that box is null regardless of the contents of other boxes, the second will be shown if that one is null and the first one isn't etc.
When I was investigating this I noticed a post by Lilybiri saying that comparison with a null variable doesn't work for "not equal to" so I'm having a hard time figuring out how to show the captions based on priority. For example, to show the second caption I need to not only check whether the second box variable is null, but also whether the first one isn't.
It gets pretty crazy further along the line where I get to the 7th mandatory field and need to check whether the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth boxes are NOT null and whether the 7th one IS. Help!
I did come up with one potential solution to this prior to posting: if I set a different advanced action for each input box losing focus which checks whether the variable is null and if so sets a "flag" variable to 0, and in the else set it to 1, I imagine I can then replace the "not equal to" with a check to that flag variable being equal to 1 (which means there is text in the box). I think this will work but I thought I'd check to see if there's an easier way first.

No it DOESN'T require everything to be on one slide. It just has to LOOK as if that's what it is.
I would suggest that it doesn't really matter how many Captivate slides are involved in the final solution, as long as it works the same way (or as close as possible) to the original software that you are simulating. Your users don't frankly know or care how you achieved the simulation. I guarantee they won't be thinking of you or Captivate.
In my experience, you can make creating elearning a lot more difficult than it needs to be in Captivate by trying to rebuild the app, rather than just simulating how it works. For example, thinking that if everything happened on one web page or screen in the app then it must also happen on a single slide in Captivate. The fact of the matter is IT DOESN'T need to work this way. And in some cases it might even be impossible to reproduce in Captivate this way.
So the quickest path to a solution is often to use multiple slides, which has the advantage of allowing you to "fix" certain things on screen (e.g. the contents of fields already visited) by using READ ONLY variable output in transparent captions, focusing only on one element of the interface that the user can interact with on that slide. It doesn't necessarily prevent you from moving back and forth between elements, just as you can in the original app. But it is far easier to create and maintain.
I'm not saying you wouldn't be able to pull this off on one slide in Captivate, but it is going to require a LOT of variables and Advanced Actions to build and debug. So the term Rapid Elearning becomes something of a misnomer if it takes you a long time to complete one slide.

Text input box for displaying notes

How can I use a text input box so delegates can write notes in which then appear on other pages as they work through the course.
Ken

It seems you would be able to do this with user variables, in which you store the content retrieved from the Text Entry Box. Later on (other slides) you can use this content by adding it to a Text Caption. Beware: I'm not sure about the amount of characters that can be stored.

Text Input Prompt

Does anyone tried to build some text input field that can do prompt? Something like auto-complete in source code edit. It would mean that:
- we have to make the rest of the prompt text gray
- the cursor blinks right after the user input characters
- if user click space bar, the first word in prompt become solid and cursor moves to next word.
Is this something that's possible to do for iPhone?

- How do I programmatically place the cursor in the middle of a word
- How do I font/color part of word in text input control
- How do I select the text up to or from where the cursor is...
You can't. You can't. You can't. At least not with a UITextField.
I've done more or less of what you are looking for in PocketMoney for auto completing transaction. You need to do a lot of rolling of your own code to pretend you have UITextField.
What I ended up doing is drawing the uncompleted text at the end of the current text input of the UITextField that I subclassed.

Text input field

How can I create a text input field?

Ok, I found the solution by a lot of searching and trial and error:
sym.$('#nickname').val("XXX");
..., where "nickname" is the id of the input field.
