Need to enter text in boxes

I have created number of boxes using vertical and horizontal lines. Now I want to position texts exactly in the box where it needs to be. I know that there are tabs but how do i position the y axis. I want some texts to enter in the first line of the boxes and then on the second line. Let me know how to position them.

Hello Ramesh,
I have same issue....I had designed a box by using sy-uline and sy-vline.
But, I need to enter text in 2 differrent lines...in that box.
Here is the code :
SKIP TO LINE 1.
ULINE AT 281(40).
WRITE : /281 SY-VLINE, 282(41) 'Ventas Internas o Exportación Gravadas', 320 SY-VLINE.
It is displaying properly in that box. BUt the requirement is I need to display the test in 2 diff lines as specified:
Ventas Internas o
Exportación Gravadas
This trequirement is very urgent for me...any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you
Keats.

CS2 Need to set text bounding box to snap to exact measurement, not em size and without leading

I am currently using CS2 working in a sign shop designing signs, banners and vehicle lettering.
When working with text I need to know the exact letter height, not the em and without the leading. I need it exactly the way it would measure if converting the text to outlines. The reason I need this information is that when I output the lettering to a cutter/plotter to cut vinyl media I need to know the exact measurement so I can nest my lettering on my media size. The media is typically 24" wide which gives me 22.5" of available space once the pinch rollers on the machine are considered. Pinch rollers are rollers that engage a knurled driving wheel and "pinches" the media between them and thus guides the media through the plotter. Of course, when using any media one must make the best use of it to avoid making scrap or using more than is needed for the job at hand. Converting text to outlines gives me that measurement.
One time awhile back I did a google search on this and found a one or two button fix that made the bounding box snap to the exact "ruler" height of the text. It worked great. But I got away from design work for a short period. When I returned I'd forgotten the process. Back when I did find it I never bookmarked or made a text file explaining the process and I'm ost in finding it again.
I don't know exactly how I worded the google search but the answer I was looking for came up on the first page. That's probably why I didn't feel the need to bookmark it or write it down. Now, I've googled dozens of different wordings for my question and get nothing. It's likely a nomenclature/jargon issue and I've yet to stumble on it again.
If anyone could help out I would so greatly appreciate it. As it is, when I get to the point that I need to know the exact ruler height of my lettering I convert my text to outlines. But then, as sometimes happens, I'll desire to change the font or try someting different but the text is not live so I'll have to start over with that line of lettering.
I sincerely hope my explanation of my questions makes sense to anyone who might be reading this.

Jacob Bugge, you are a blessing. This effect not only saves me time but avoids a lot of frustration when a client wants to change some copy or I commit a spelling error or have some other brain malfunction. Not to mention the sometimes hundreds of single words or number groups I must fit onto an artboard set to my available media space.
Option 2 is exactly what I was looking for and I'll remember it forever now as I've spent parts of the past week searching that answer only to hear over and over again, "You can't do that in Illustrator".
Thank you so much for your quick response!

Need to add text with box dynamically

Hello,
I need to add a standard text created in so10 with a box at the end of the purchase order.
This should trigger dynamically if the condition is correct.
For ex : PO created in plant = 100 then this text should be displayed at the end of the PO page with a box.
DO I have to create a Window and then include this text created in so10 and then give the conditions?
PLease suggest...
Have a great evening!
Regards,
Kittu

Hi,
Simplest would be define a new element in the main window like:
E OTHER_TERMS
/:   NEW-PAGE
/:   INCLUDE ZPO_TERMS_AND_CONDITIONS OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE EN
In the pgm check your condition if satisfied then use
        CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
             EXPORTING
                  element = 'OTHER_TERMS'
                  function = 'APPEND'
                  window   = 'MAIN'
             EXCEPTIONS
                  element = 1
                  function = 2
                  type     = 3
                  window   = 6
                  OTHERS   = 8.
I hope this helps,

Need help entering text into my website

Hello,
You'll have to forgive me as I am new to Dreamweaver, HTML
and such things.
I have created my website interface, as shown here:
http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/1452/mywebsitepm9.jpg
I created this in photoshop, then sliced the image into
slices and exported it into Dreamweaver.
I wish to add text to the large white box in the middle of
the page, what is the best way to do this?
Thanks for any help

> I created this in photoshop, then sliced the image into

A method that is highly unlikely to produce a worthwhile
website. Photoshop
is an image editing program, not a website building program.
If you are
trying to become a bona fide web designer I suggest you start
by learning
HTML & CSS. This is a good starting point:
http://www.amazon.com/XHTML-Sixth-Visual-Quickstart-Guide/dp/0321430840/sr=1-1/qid=1165172 849/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-5389401-2687307?ie=UTF8&s=books
If you are just trying to create a one-time site for your
personal use you
are probably better off buying a template and then just
filling in the
blanks. Search this NG for sources of quality templates.
Beware, many
template sites sell pure junk. Try here:

AppleScript for entering text in Open Finder Window

I am very, very new to using AppleScripts. I need to enter text into the search box. So far the script looks like this:
on run {input, parameters}
    tell application "myApplication" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
        keystroke "o" using {command down}
    end tell
    return input
end run
This launches the app and fires the command-o keyboard shortcut to open the finder menu to choose a file to open. Now I just need to enter text in:

I'm not sure what the above means. are you trying to open a Folder containing image files in the Finder, or are you trying to open a set of image files in some application? If the latter (which seems more likely), just add and Open Finder Items action at the end of the script and specify the application you want to use to open them. Or if that's not what you mean, could you explain a bit more clearly?

User entered text at the bottom of my report

Hi SDN
I Need user entered text at the intial variable screen should come in my out put of the report as comment at the bottom
Thanks,
Chinna.

which front end tool you want to use to create the report
we have query designer, report designer, WAD, crystal reports and many?
I am not sure that with query designer you will be able to acahieve it. But sure that not a straight forward soltuion.
With report designer, and crystal reports, you can easily achieve it, it seems.

Look-up to DB after entering text in field

I've been browsing the forum for quite a while now and cannot find the answer to my problem.
We've been using LC for months now but we now need to figure out how to have a look-up to a dabatase after the user has entered text in a field. Based on the text entered, a list will appear which matches the text entered by the user so that the user can choose the appropriate record which will then populate numerous other fields on the form.
Usually, the field the user needs to enter text in is the 'Last Name' field and let's say I enter 'Hill' the look-up would return all last names in the database that contain 'Hill'. The list that appears should also contain numerous other columns of data in addition to the last name (such as first name, middle initial, etc.) in order to ensure the user is choosing the correct person. Once the user chooses the correct person, numerous other fields on the form that are 'read only' will then populate automatically.
In the software we've been using for years we achieve this using an SQL statement, however, have tried to use it in LC and it does not work. I've been able to get the connection made and to have various fields populate with either the first record in the database or a specific record based on my SQL statement, however, I need to know how to not have the database connection execute immediately, but rather wait for the user to enter text in the field and then proceed to filter the records in the database and display all the matching options. If I check any of the 'delay' options it just leaves the fields blank.
Is there a way in LC to make it function the way I need it to? I'm new to scripting and SQL, so please be very specific.
Thanks for any help !

Hi Paul,
Under the sample zip file it gives the following instruction "Use the FormBuilderDB20060929.sql file to build the database, create an ODBC Connection named “FormBuilderDB” and load the form". I've been able to go in under Administration Tools to create a database named FormBuilderDB but which driver should be used? When I'm in LC under the database connection, it doesn't seem to like the driver I've chosen (Microsoft ODBC for Oracle)...should it be another one??? It also wants a User Name and Server.....what should go in these??? Where should the FormBuilderDB20060929.sql file go???
Also, this sample uses a drop-down field initially which is not what I need....the user should be typing their last name in a text field and then when they tab out that's when the link to the DB should be activated and all records that match what has been typed should appear.....is that functionality not possible or is it just different coding required? Perhaps I'm in way over my head on this.
Thanks for any help.

Text entry boxes in CP6 - Enter key to validate input does not work in Safari?

I'm using Captivate 6 to create a step by step walkthrough of some different processes that are commonly completed in my workplace. Some of the example processes have portions where text is entered to simulate a process the end user might need. I have text entry boxes in these slides that require validation of the input to move along, with Enter used as a shortcut key. This works great in Firefox, Chrome and IE all the way down to 8....but if the course is run in Safari, the enter key does nothing. Is this a known issue?
Additional info: For many of these text entry boxes, the point is that it is a search field that has a little binoculars icon next to it that executes the search in the actual software we are simulating. For these slides I actually have the submit button associated with the text box made invisible (no fill, no stroke) and placed on top of the binoculars icon. This is an acceptable method of doing the task we're demonstrating, and just so happens to be a workaround for the enter key not working in Safari. However, a few places we have text entry that doesn't have the search/binocular icon next to it because there is a different goal on that section of the software we're visualizing. In those cases, there is no place for me to put an invisible submit button, and I can't make the submit button visible because that's not how the software we're demonstrating would work (thus defeating the purpose of the training).

Sorry, this is a known bug with no fix available yet, but the makers of SwiftKey are aware of it and we will work with them to fix it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617298
For now, the only solution is to use a different keyboard when using Firefox.

Unable to enter text in text boxes in Safari

When using Safari 6.0.2 I frequently cannot enter text into a text box. If I open a new page, it will work fine for a while and then develop the same problem. Anybody else have this problem and find a solution?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

Force user to enter text if checks YES check box

I have created a form with YES and NO check boxes. If user checks YES, they need to provide written reason. Is there a way to "force" user to enter text into text box if they check the YES check box?
Thanks,
Toyro

Hi Jodi,
Yes, it has to be saved as a dynamic PDF.
Additionally, there are some name mismatches in your form so the script was failing. My script defined page 1 as 'page1' while your form defined page 1 as 'Page1'. I renamed your form page 1 to 'page1' and the script worked fine.
I would recommend enabling the debugger in Acrobat for form developement. See Edit > Preferences and enable the following:
I added an additional button with some script on the button 'click' event.
The purpose is to intervene in the submission process, in your case submitting by email. With a single submit button the email dialogue fires regardless of failed form validation. By introducing a second button you can do form validation before enabling submission. The attached form has a visible button called 'submitBtn' and your original 'Submit By Email' button which is declared as 'invisible'. My 'submitBtn' is labelled 'Submit By Email'. When the button is clicked is does form validation. If validation succeeds, I call form1.page1.Button1.execEvent("click"); to submit to the email address attached to 'Button1'.
Take a look and see if it fits your requirements.

How to resize the text I enter in the boxes on some web pages?

Sometimes I need to type a text in boxes (of online dictionaries for example) and it has a very small size for me. How could I increase the size of the entered text?

You need to add this javascript function to your form jsp files (or template)
function noenter() {
return !(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 13); }
and then add an onkeypress attribute to your text input fields that looks like this:
onkeypress="return noenter();"
---------------OR-----------------------------------
onkeypress="return event.keyCode!=13"

Can't login to iMac, no text entered into password box

I had the issue of my iMac going to black screen prior to the login screen. I tried using voiceover to login, and got to the login password text box, but when I tried to enter text there was nothing - no clicks, and no password getting entered. I thought I was just doing something wrong. I finally used a different fix and now the machine boots all the way to the login screen, showing my main, guest and other icons. When I click on the main icon, it shows the password box. But I can't type anything in it. I can push keys all I want, but no dots show in the box and the cursor doesn't move. I can log on as a guest, which is how I'm typing this now. Obviously the keyboard works, there is something blocking the password from being input into the password box. Help?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is only suitable for advanced users, preferably with command-line experience. It works sometimes. There's no assurance it will work in your case. If you don’t understand the directions or don’t feel able to carry them out, STOP.
Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. There are ways to back up, even if you can’t log in. Before proceeding,you must be sure you can restore everything to the state it’s in now. If you’re not absolutely sure you can do that,STOP.
Briefly, you need to delete the following file:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist
If you already know how to do that, you can skip the rest of this message. Do it, and try again to log in.
Step 1
Start up in single-user mode by holding down the key combination command-S at the startup chime. If you’re using an external USB keyboard, it must be plugged directly into a built-in port on the Mac, not into a hub. Release the keys when you see a black screen with scrolling white text. In this mode, there’s no graphical interface; just a command line. Initially, you can’t make any changes to files.
Step 2
When the text stops scrolling, and you see a line ending in a pound sign (“#”), type the following command:
mount -uw /
You must type the command exactly as given, with no mistakes. If you don’t feel able to do that, STOP.
Press the return key.
Step 3
Enter the following command:
rm -i /L*/*/*login*
Again, you must get it exactly right. You should be prompted to remove a file named exactly "com.apple.loginwindow.plist". Press the Y key and then return to confirm. Press the N key and then return if you get any other response
Step 4
Enter the command:
exit
Press return. The text will start scrolling again, and then the system will restart. Try again to log in.

Text field keeps repopulating same text and I need to enter different text in each field

I am filling out a downloaded, fillable form. In one section, it asks me to list different items. When I enter text into the first field, it automatically enters the same text in the remaining fields. I need to enter different items in each field. Please help!

There is nothing you can do. The fields were improperly set by the creator. To fix this you need Acrobat not Reader.

How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? To my horror, I've emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes (and why do I need to enter this question three times?"

How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"?
To my horror, I emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes .
All mail also disappeared from my iPad, I suppose because they are "synched"
(Also, no offense, but why do I need to enter this question multiple times?)
Thanks for any thoughts.

I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.
