OutlineField and the Default Button

Hello all,
We are currently using the Forte 3.0.G.2. I have recently come
across the situation where I am unable to understand the behavior of the
default button. The situation is this:
Whenever I am including the Outline Field as one of the widgets in
any of my windows that particular window will not respond to the default
button. I am attaching the pex file so you can run the test windows and see
the problem.
Can someone please tell me if I am doing something wrong or is this a
known/unknown bug?
<<DefaultBtn.pex>>
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kamran!
What happens is that when the focus is on outline fields, the enter key
fires a doubleclick event and ignores the default button. So you need to
capture the doubleclick event and do whatever you want your button to do.
Here's a quote from Forte support
"Unfortunately, this is a documentation issue. The IsDefaultButton only
works when focus is on a simple DataField, because in all of the complex
fields, including TextField, TextEditField, TreeView and ListView as well
as OutlineField, the Enter key has a separate and defined action. On
Tree/ListViews and OutlineFields that is DoubleClick.
You COULD catch the DoubleClick on the OutlineField and post a click event
on the default button, however I'd encourage caution with that, since this
could cause some unexpected behavior if someone were counting on the Enter
(or a mouse double-click) to behave in our standard way."

I have i phone 4 from verizon and the power button is not working

I have i phone 4 from verizon and the power button isn't working anymore, I bought my i phone 8 months ago.
What options do I have and what should I do ?

Hello James,
The flashing WLAN light means activity (data getting transferred). Try disconnecting all your devices and check whether the light is still flashing or disconnect the router from internet and do the check.
Do you have your SSID as linksys or the default one? If your neighbor has the same SSID, then traffic could result from your neighbor's one. Try changing your SSID and password. Make your security WPA/WPA2.
Hope this helps,
Thanks

Pointer does not move to the default button in the dialog box

example: when cleaning out trash the pointer does not go to the default button in the dialog box, you have to manually go there.
This happens all the time.

Hi Abhishek,

Problem with combo boxes and the reset button in certain situations

Hi Everyone,
i have a problem to make the reset-button function properly in an what-if analysis dashboard.
The dashboard uses two combo boxes that are not visible at the same time. In my application the second combo box only appears when a dedicated menu (label based menu button) has been activated.
So i have combo box 1 when menu A is active an dand combo box 2 when menu 2 is active.
After starting the dashboard initial values are fine. If you then directly change to menu 2 (seeing combo box 2 with
the correct default value) and press the reset button, the dashboard returns to the initial view, showing
the menu 1 with the correct default value. If you now switch back to menu 2, you will see, that the combo box 2
is empty (i.e. nothing selected).
I also tracked the destination cells for the combo box value results as well as the source cells for the "selected item" and the
destination cells for the "Insert Selected Item". All this values seem to be correct. Therefore i assume that
this is an issue of event handling. Maybe the combo box 2 does not refresh its selected value because it is already
invisible when the values are restored.
This case can easily be simulated by placing two combo boxes and a push button (that changes the visibility of
the combo boxes) and the reset button on the canvas.
Maybe someone can help. I am able to provide a test xlf, if neccessary.
Thanks,
Oliver
P.S. I am using Xcelsius SP4 (Version 5.4.0.0)

Hello Debjit_Singha_86,
thank you for your support. At the moment i have the following setting:
label based menu
- General: Insertion Type "value" from a list of ID's for the menu-items to a dedicated cell (current menu ID, say tab1!$A$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) fixted to item 1
hidden combo box
- General: Insertion Type "position" to a dedicated cell with the current choice (say tab1!$B$1)
- Behavior: Selected item (position) to the same cell (tab1!$B$1)
Can you give me a hint on how to connect the two components according to your solution, so that the label based menu sets the default for the hidden combox box only in case, that the reset button is pressed?
Thanks,
Oliver

Dear partha,
1) You can be able to trace out the location of the button
2) You can be able to move the cursor to that location
3) You can be able to automatically generate a click on that button
Use user32.dll to achieve all this. when u use it in CLN(Call Library Node), u can c functions 4 that.

If Firefox 20 is in Private Browsing mode then a possible persona is disabled and the default theme is used - oh god, no - what can I do to keep both?

Cor-el answered on the 4.4.13: " If Firefox 20 is in Private Browsing mode then a possible persona is disabled and the default theme is used. So you will have to make a choice."
Can I go back to an older version of FF? I really do not want to choose. Will that problem be fixed in FF 21? I really love Firefox, it has always been my favorite browser - but giving up the Personas will be hard and I don't understand why I have to...
How do I reinstall an older version of FF? Is there another solution?

Remember to use the per window Private Browsing when you are doing banking or other confidential / financial work.
One option is now
* '''Firefox Button -> New Private Browsing Window'''
* (Linux / xp File -> New Private Browsing Window)
* see [[Private Browsing - Browse the web without saving information about the sites you visit]]
You may even benefit from saving your History.It improves the functionality of the location bar / ''awesome-bar ''
*[[Awesome Bar - Find your bookmarks, history and tabs when you type in the address bar]]

The default button in JFileChooser

Is it possible to make either the 'save' or 'cancel' button the default button (the one that will be pressed when the user presses the 'enter' key after the dialog is shown) in a save-dialog ?
It will probably involve setting the focus to either one of these buttons, but it is unclear how I can do that.
Thanks in advance.

public static JButton searchByText(Component comp, String[] texts) {
    if (comp instanceof JButton) {
        JButton btn = (JButton) comp;
        String text = btn.getText();
        for(int j=0; j<texts.length; ++j)
            if (text.equals(texts[j]))
                return btn;
        return null;
    if (comp instanceof Container) {
        Container cont = (Container) comp;
        for(int j=0, ub=cont.getComponentCount(); j<ub; ++j) {
            JButton result = searchByText(cont.getComponent(j), texts);
            if (result != null)
                return result;
    return null;
}You can call this method, passing it your JFileChooser and:
String[] approves = {"Open", "Save"};

Jump the cursor to the default button in Mavericks?

Does anyone know of a way to jump the cursor to the default button in Mavericks? I found a third-party product called Steer Mouse, but it's $20 and that seems high for a one trick pony.
Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, it's not that easy with setButtonIcons because it forces you to specify rollover and disabled icons, for instance. So it doesn't help if you just want the default grey filtered icons when disabled. Also, you can't just subclass JUNavigationBar either since most of what you need is private. We took the brute force approach and just copied the JUNaviationBar source and modified it.
Basically, just create a new class with the same source as JUNavigationBar and replace the private icon filename strings to your icon file names:
public class NavigationBar
extends JToolBar
implements ActionListener, RowSetListener, JUNavigationBarInterface, JUTransactionStateListener
private static final String BUTTON_FIRST_ICON = "first.png";
private static final String BUTTON_PREV_ICON = "single_arrow_left.png";
private static final String BUTTON_NEXT_ICON = "single_arrow_right.png";
private static final String BUTTON_LAST_ICON = "last.png";
private static final String BUTTON_INSERT_ICON = "add.png";
private static final String BUTTON_DELETE_ICON = "delete.png";
private static final String BUTTON_COMMIT_ICON = "save.png";
private static final String BUTTON_ROLLBACK_ICON = "refresh.png";
private static final String BUTTON_FIND_ICON = "find_next.png";
private static final String BUTTON_EXECUTE_ICON = "query.png";
...We also modified some calls in the class' constructor during button setup that made the toolbar not floatable and various other things.
Hope this helps.

The forward and back buttons in firefox 4 beta 7 dont work after trying to customize and the bookmarks button only shows when customizing

after installing firefox 4 beta 7 any customization of navigation bar breaks the forward and back a page buttons they stop working and and restoring the default buttons option it still doesn't work even in the safe mode and the text in menu buttons looks glassy

What I found was that anytime I installed one of the beta's, as soon as I tried to customize the bars and hit the "small icons" checkbox from customize that I would no longer be able to have the round shaped foward back buttons but only square (rectangle) small buttons.
To get those round ones back, but never again to the right of the "File - Edit - etc" bar, all I did was move all the buttons down to the navigation or another bar below as I have the space.
The problem still occurs that anytime I attempt to put them back up top beside the file etc options they go back to those small rectangle buttons :(

How to Make the Default Button Marker Not Show Upon Launching...

I am trying to only have the markers show up on the menu item when you roll over it. However, when the menu is first launched, the marker is automatically showing up on the first button.
I have selected "None" as the default menu button in the menu config. I am also using Photoshop to make the menu and creating the (+) buttons there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Create an invisible button (turn off the visibility of all layers) and
set it to use Highlight Group 2 (edit the Menu Color Set). Set the
opacity of all the highlight states to 0%. Make the invisible button
the default button.

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log in

When I try to open an image by double clicking on it in Bridge, I get a message telling me to log in to Creative Cloud. I am running CS6, and the default should be to open files in Photoshop 6 or in Adobe Raw (if it's a Raw file). I don't want to log into CC since I am not a subscriber, and this means that I have to work around, and go back to Bridge, and tell it to open the file in Adobe RAW. However, this does not work for older psd files which for some reason cannot be opened in RAW. How do I return to the process of simply allowing RAW files to open automatically in Adobe RAW, and simply right clicking on the image in Bridge to bring up the option of opening it in Photoshop?

After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

IPhone 4s looks shut down all the time.especially when the 3g is on.in the forums its said to push the use button and the power button at the same time.the people calling me cannot reach at my phone.what should i do ?

my phone looks like offline all the time.its all about me to notice that its offline.then i have to push the main button and the power button together to open it.then the apple sign comes on the screen and the phone turns online.but i cannot receive the information of who called me at the time that my iphone 4s turned offline by itself.i cannot receive messages at all.what can i do now ? i sent the phone to the service and they just told me that they installed the current version.but i guess nothing happened.its doing the same thing again.i cannot use my iphone.
From Turkiye.

I've tried all those.But nothing works.The phone seems to be shut down.But it is not.When i get it out of my pocket, for example to call someone, i touch to main button but nothing happens.I solve it by pushing the power button and the main button together just for a couple of seconds, as its said so in the forums.
also, people told me that they were calling me, my phone was ringing but i didnt answer?...i checked it for millions of times, it seems to be shut down, but its normally not.then i push the buttons together and the apple sign comes on the screen.it searches for the network.and it works.
but i do not see any calls, texts anything.but for the others, they say my phone seems to be workin.
I thought it was 'cause of the 3G is switched on but when I turn 3G off, it does the same thing.it seems to be offline all the time.
