Captivate 5.5 Text input box problem

Hi all
I have created a software simulation which has a really annoying intermitent issue.
There are a number of validated TEBs throughout the project with the enter key set as the shortcut to go to the next slide..
My issue is that Captivate randomly chooses to ignore that enter has been pressed.. I have looked everwhere online and cannot find a solution to this issue.
I have also spoken to Adobe who claim they are not aware of any issue and it is fine at their end when trying to replicate.. I have sent them an example project so that they can see this bug in action.
Has anyone else come across this, and if so has any one come up with any work arounds?
I have also tried setting a button to transparent (it's shortcut as enter) but to no avail.
Please help!!!!

Hi Noel
I'll probably move this discussion over into the Captivate forums area after I reply. So heads up on that.
It's been the source of frustration for many Captivate users. Some claim that it requires pressing the Enter key "harder" to make it work. Personally, I think the "harder" keypress is just voodoo and preposterous, as keyboards on computers are simply mechanical switches. My own view is that it's more related to timing than anything else.
I might suggest that you complete a Wish Form/Bug Report to alert Adobe about it. The more of these folks create about the same issue, the higher the priority is assigned to that issue.
Cheers... Rick

Emulator text input loops with WTK2.5.1 on Linux

Hi,
first of all: Thanks for the great WTK for Linux!
When i debug with the WTK 2.5.1 emulators the
text input fields continue to enter numbers even if i only press
the keyboard once.
This bug was not in WTK2.2/Linux-emulators.
Is there any workaround known for this problem?
Thanks
Marcel

I'm seeing quite a few layout issues on various sites. I'm a little surprised that no more people have been complaining.

Sapscript and Standard Text - Polish Characters not printing

Hi,
I have created an English Sapscript and translated it to Polish via transaction SE76.
Changing my PC Region and Language settings to Polish allowed me to enter Polish Characters into Hardcoded text in the Sapscript and Standard Text via s010.
I have two problems:
1) With my PC Region and Language settings set to Polish, when I create my sapscript output some of the polish characters that I have entered via SE76 and SO10 do not appear and are replaced by others e.g.
ę is dispalyed as ê
ć is displayed as æ
ń is displazed as #
2) I have a business requirement to be in England Logged with PC Region and Language set to English but to print a sapscript output in Polish. Is this possible.
We are currently on non unicode SAP system.
Please can anyone advise.
Regards

Hello,
SAP discourages mixed code page or MDMP systems and with good reason. If there is any possibility of you upgrading to a Unicode system in the near future you should try to wait for it. Supporting multiple languages in Unicode is easy, in MDMP it can be quite tricky. And MDMP makes the move to Unicode more difficult.
That said, your BASIS team can enable Polish and you can print in Polish while your PC is set for English. The SAPScript/Form must be in Polish or using an INCLUDE that is LANGUAGE 'PL' to let SAP know which code page to use when printing.
Seriously, look at moving to Unicode, you need to do it eventually anyways.

Problem with labelprinter POLISH CHARACTERS

Hi,
I have a problem with labelprinter. When I try to print a label (Intermec 4e) in polish language there are no polisch characters on printout. Printpreview looks good but that's all. Maybe someone had a similar problems
best regards

Hi!
In which way is the output transferred?
Something like:
a)
ESC 'times new roman'
My text
b) already converted into a picture with a specific resolution (e.g. of 300dpi)?
Case a) -> Your printer needs an installed font times new roman / it's using the first installed font or something in this way. Then you need to download a special (user-) font with polish characters. (That's a quite common way. Sometimes already then vendor installs an user font as preparation for some countries.)
Case b) -> No idea, when print preview is already OK, then output should be OK, too.

Problem with printing Polish characters on paper printouts.

Scenario..1
Text Module TM being used in smartform. TM uses a style which has font ARIAL.
TM is translated into 2 languages English and Polish.
The English version contains Polish characters too, since a couple of Person names have to be printed.
When the form is printed in Polish language : The Polish characters are previewed and printed correctly
When the form is printed in English language : The Polish characters are previewed correctly but not printed correctly
Both the above use the same printer having support for Polish fonts.. so i am asssuming the printer is not the issue here.. i could be wrong.
Kindly advice.

How can I have a checkbox that a user checks and populates a field with read only text, then if another checkbox is checked it will allow user text input

Hi
How can I have a check box that a user checks and populates a field with read only text, then if another check box is checked it will allow user text input into that same field, her is my javascript
var a ="Not Applicable"
if (this.getField("Do").value == "Yes")
a=""
if (this.getField("DoNot").value =="Yes")
a=a + ""
event.value=a
say if the "Do" cb is checked, Not Applicable would populate the text field, and if the "DoNot" cb is checked it would allow user input into the same text field, the javascript I have will not allow user input,
thanks for any help I am new to javascript

Are these fields mutually exclusive?

Text Input field return char problem

I have a multiline text input field used as a message area on a form (sending mail through a PHP doc). When I hit return to start new paragraph in that field and the form content is send and received at other end everything after that return is lost? Any ideas would be fantastic...
Marc

copy the code between the dotted lines and attach it to the same timeline that contains your submit button:
var sendLV:LoadVars=new LoadVars();
var receiveLV:LoadVars=new LoadVars();
receiveLV.onData=function(src){
trace("received");
trace(src); // or use a textfield to see the return if you're not able to see trace output when testing
// and you should attach code to objects. assign an instance name to your submit button (say submitBtn) and use:
submitBtn.onRelease=function(){
sendLV.name = form.nameTF.text; // assign properties to sendLV that your php is expecting. assign values to those properties using the form data
sendLV.email=...
sendLV.message=...
sendLV.sendAndLoad("email.php",receiveLV,"POST");
trace("sent\n"+sendLV.message)
and change your email.php file to:
<?php
echo $_POST['message'];
?>

Text input ghost image

I created several text input fields in a presentation.
A ghost image of the shortcut character displays when a user
highlights the text field.
Any insight??

I'm just taking a shot at this because there's not much to go
on.
I am aware of a similar complaint regarding invisible buttons
with a shortcut key assigned to them. When an invisible button is
triggered via a keyboard shortcut, that invisible button ends up
getting a yellow rectangle on it -- something to do with
Captivate's "focus manager," or some such.
Could it be that you have a single slide with multiple text
input fields on that slide?
If so, I can imagine a variety of problems (including the
yellow box or "ghost characters") being exhibited.
The most effective way to build interactions in Captivate is
to use only one interaction per slide. If you have one screenshot
on which you need to simulate the entry of text in multiple fields,
you'll be better off using a separate slide for each field:
1) On slide "a", have the student enter the text in field 1.
2) On slide "b", display the correct answer in field 1, and
have them enter text in field 2.
3) On slide "c", display the correct answers in fields 1 and
2, and have them enter text in field 3.
Repeat this "build up" of entries until they've made all the
necessary entries.
I suspect if you build your interaction in this manner, the
"ghost" issue you're seeing won't show up at all. If this doesn't
work for you, maybe you can describe your situation better or
provide an online sample we can look at.

Text input inside webpage didn't work when address bar had been touched or input, motorola xoom JB

After touch address bar,either input a web site or just touch, text input inside a web page is impossible. The only way I can input text into a web page is to open a web by using the most visited page. Not possible whenever using address bar.

I found this post on linux forums which say It's a HAL related problem.
"rmmod ehci_hcd" made it work for some of these guys Which one of them explains It's a data speed issue. Cables.., 2.0 1.0, that sort of things. Read it, I bet you'll get more out of it, It's old though.
Try removing the module, plugging the drive, check dmesg, and mount manually.

How to Disable client side validation for the message text input

Hi,
I have scenario where i need to by pass the client side validation for a message text input
Scenario is
I have a message text input field(say XYZ), i set the max length for the item as 20
Now when im trying to enter the greek characters into it, it is allowing me to enter till 20 characters
But when i try to submit the form ..my client side validation is firing..
The Error says the XYZ is too long
The problem is, in greek each character takes two bytes.(In english it is only 1).While entering the content it allowing 20 characters and when validating it is checking for bytes(if we enter in greek the length will be 40 bytes not 20)
I cannot increase the max length .coz i have restrict the character length to 20 only.(english or Greek).
Please help me in this regard.
Regards
Sandeep.

Thanks for the information.But we dont have any option either declaratively or programatically to disable the client side validation for the message text input..I referred java docs ..i dint find any method which does..
Correct me if im wrong

Printing polish characters on form

I added some polish text in a standard textfield.
For example:
Ilość
Numer zamówienia zakupu
Podpis wystawiającego fakturę
This polish text is perfectly visible on Adobe Forms design view.
But during runtime, the polish characters are not visible anymore (instead an empty space is shown).
I tried with different fonts (Arial, Verdana) and different formats (Plain Text Only, Rich text), but nothing seems to work.
What could be the problem ?
Thanks

Hi Martin,
another thought to solve the issue is to translate the form to pl in your system. I got a similar issue some time ago.
I developed the form in DE and translated it just to English, because we wanted to set always English.
Problem was, that french characters didn't show up in a proper way in print-preview. We solved the issue by translating the form also in FR and IT.
It seemed, that the formlanguage passed just the native charactersets for this language.
Maybe you are having the same issue. Otherwise would be nice, if you can share your solution if there is another one here
