PrintScreen key causes problems

Hi
My movie reacts to space key to perform some action
on keyUp
if (_key.keycode = 49) then sendallsprites(#SpacePressed)
end
But when the user press after that printScreen key, keyUp
event is executed,
but _key.keycode is still 49 that responds to space-key. and
the application
reacts to printscreen as to space-key.
Keydown event is not executed on pressing printScreen key, so
using
_key.keyPressed() function I can not check if really space is
pressed,
In on keyUp handler _key.keyPressed(49) is false even if user
pressd space
(because key is already up)
_key.keycode is readOnly so can not get reed of value 49,
until another key
with some value is pressed
Is there any way to avoid this?
Thanx in advance
Orest

A single display icon (set to 'Update Displayed Variables')
containing {Key}
will suffice. Why do it the hard way!

  • Primary Key Causing Problem in Interval Partition Exchange

    First, thanks for posting the code that lets us reproduce your test. That is essential for issues like this.
    Because the primary key is global you will not be able to use
    INCLUDING INDEXES
    WITH VALIDATION;And you will need to add the primary key to the temp table
    ALTER TABLE DEMO_INTERVAL_DATA_LOAD_Y ADD CONSTRAINT IDX_DEMO_ROLL_Y PRIMARY KEY (ROLL_NUM);The the exchange will work. You will need to rebuild the primary key after the exchange.

  • JTree + FK with same value causing problems

    Hi
    I can't figure this out. If I create biz components for 2 tables having a parent-child relationship and a jTree with appropriate rules, things are ok only if the parent's id are of different values than the child. When parent.id and child.id have the same values the jTree seems to recursively fire valueChanged() at strange times.
    Example:
    CREATE TABLE PARENT
    PARENT_ID NUMBER CONSTRAINT PARENT_ID_NN NOT NULL,
    PARENT_NAME VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
    CONSTRAINT PARENT_C_ID_PK
    PRIMARY KEY
    (PARENT_ID)
    CREATE TABLE CHILD
    CHILD_ID NUMBER CONSTRAINT CHILD_ID_NN NOT NULL,
    CHILD_NAME VARCHAR2(40 BYTE),
    PARENT_ID NUMBER,
    CONSTRAINT CHILD_C_ID_PK
    PRIMARY KEY
    (CHILD_ID)
    ALTER TABLE CHILD ADD (
    CONSTRAINT PARENT_FK
    FOREIGN KEY (PARENT_ID)
    REFERENCES PARENT (PARENT_ID));
    INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (1, 'Parent 1');
    INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (2, 'Parent 2');
    INSERT INTO PARENT VALUES (3, 'Parent 3');
    INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (100, 'Child A', 1);
    INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (200, 'Child B', 2);
    INSERT INTO CHILD VALUES (300, 'Child C', 3);
    I use the JDev 10.1.2 wizard to create biz components and test the AppMod to make sure the link works. Now I create a blank panel and drag over the ParentView data control. Using the jTree tree binding editor I create two rules:
    1) DataCollectionDef.ParentView - DisplayAttribute.ParentName - BranchRuleAccessor.ChildView
    2) DataCollectionDef.ChildView - DisplayAttribute.ChildName
    Now I add a tree selection listener:
    jTree1.addTreeSelectionListener(new TreeSelectionListener()
    public void valueChanged(TreeSelectionEvent e)
    DefaultMutableTreeNode selectedNode = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)jTree1.getLastSelectedPathComponent();
    if (selectedNode != null)
    System.out.println(selectedNode.getUserObject().toString());
    When I run my panel and watch in JDev everything is fine, i.e. nothing is printed to the screen when it first loads and when I click a node, the correct UserObject prints.
    Here's the rub, now I close the panel and update my child table as follows:
    UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 1 WHERE child_id = 100;
    UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 2 WHERE child_id = 200;
    UPDATE pdssuser.child SET child_id = 3 WHERE child_id = 300;
    This time, when I run my panel, the console shows that valueChanged() has been fired 3 times on load:
    Parent 1
    Parent 2
    Parent 3
    This behavior is causing problems with my real tree.
    I haven't had any luck finding threads about this. Any ideas?
    Thanks
    John

    ok, last one (i hope)
    The same issue occurs with 10.1.2.1
    ...but changing the location where I add the treeSelectionListener to after setBindingContext() seems to fix the problem.
    The second call to panelBinding.refreshControl() in setBindingContext() (the one after the call to jbinit()) is what fires the valueChanged events. Somewhere in there, DCBindingContainer.java or DCIteratorBinding.java, the treeSelectionListener is hearing that a value changed (maybe due to a query execution?). I guess the jTree1.setModel(...) call in jbinit() simply sets up the tree but the VO queries described in the Branch Rule accessors are executed on the refreshControl.....i'm out of my comfort zone here and may be confusing you with my "troubleshooting" so I'll just tell you my work-around.
    So to fix it I add the treeSelectionListener in my main method (not jbinit()) after the setBindingContext() has been called.
    I still have no idea why the FK triggers this behavior...but at least it's working.
    * the main method
    public static void main(String [] args)
    try
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
    catch(Exception exemp)
    exemp.printStackTrace();
    Panel1 panel = new Panel1();
    panel.setBindingContext(JUTestFrame.startTestFrame("DataBindings.cpx", "null", panel, panel.getPanelBinding(), new Dimension(400, 300)));
    panel.revalidate();
    // Now add the treeSelectionListener
    panel.addSelectionListener();
    * the JbInit method
    public void jbInit() throws Exception
    this.setLayout(borderLayout1);
    this.add(jTree1, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    jTree1.setModel((TreeModel)panelBinding.bindUIControl("ParentView1", jTree1));
    // DON'T ADD treeSelectionListener here
    * Add the selection listener to the tree
    public void addSelectionListener()
    jTree1.addTreeSelectionListener(new TreeSelectionListener()
    public void valueChanged(TreeSelectionEvent e)
    DefaultMutableTreeNode selectedNode = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)jTree1.getLastSelectedPathComponent();
    if (selectedNode != null)
    System.out.println(selectedNode.getUserObject().toString());
    }

  • File Vault encryption locked up.  No progress for 24 hrs.  If I restore from a non-encypted back-up will this cause problems?

    Started file vault yesterday and no progress for 24 hrs.  If I do a Command-R restore from a non-encrypted back-up will this cause problems?

    You first must repartition and reformat the drive before restoring your backup.
    Install or Reinstall OS X from Scratch
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
          the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
               because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should install the version of OS X that you had installed.

  • Safari 5 installation caused problems between apps and Mail.

    Following on from here: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11634165 . It would appear that a new version of the WebKit, installed with Safari 5, has caused problems with applications setting up an output message using Mail.
    I am using Filemaker and, using a Filemaker command in a script, I call Mail with a PDF to attach and some text to imbed into the body of the message. Since installing Safari 5, the text has a black background and the PDF is in a strange framed box with a large "X" in the corner!
    I don't want the framed box and the receiver of the message cannot read black on black. Please correct this bug!
    Fingers have been pointed at WebKit!
    I have discovered that selecting the text and toggling "plain text"/"rich text" clears the background. But I cannot do this automatically AFAIK.
    Any other suggestions please?

    First of all: Sorry for my bad English ... school is very long ago ..;-)
    I've got the same problem and it seems to be "unsolvable" for us .... but I found out a way, to live with it for a while ...
    1. Build a new script in Filemaker, e. g. "mailformat"
    2. Put the following steps into the new script (sorry, it's out of the german version of filemaker)
    a) "Scriptpause setzen", one second (translation - perhaps:-) : script brake, the 2nd term in the list of functions in scriptmaker window
    b) Applescript ausführen (translation perhaps: execute applescript, nearly at the end of function list)
    the applescript, you need, are only 4 rows:
    activate application "Mail"
    tell application "System Events"
    key code 17 using {command down, shift down}
    end tell
    3. After each "send Email" Event in your database, execute the new build script "mailformat" ....
    In my case, I need the brake at the beginning of "mailformat", otherwise, the text is for a few milliseconds visible, after that "the black hole of Safari" appears again ...
    HTH and sorry again for the bad English

  • Caps Lock Keyboard "G" key causes hanging notes

    When I use Logic Pro 8s Caps Lock Keyboard the "G" key causes hanging notes. The only way I've found to end the hanging note is to start and stop the sequencer. This behaviour happens when auditioning instrument sounds and in Record or Record Ready mode.
    It's not a mechanical problem, as the "G" key doesn't cause multiple entries in text documents etc when pressed and released quickly. It only seems to be misbehaving inside of Logic itself, when using the Caps Lock Keyboard.
    Is anyone else having this trouble?
    Does anyone know why it happens and/or how to fix it?

    can someone help please?
    I opened up a new song, blank, and the caps lock keyboard worked fine.
    seems to be a problem with older songs, which leads me to think maybe its a setting i have changed, ie when playing with uc33 midi contoller.
    thankyou

  • Null values from DB2 cause problems

    Hi,
    I have another problem with database link to DB2 using IBM iSeries Access for Linux on 64 bit OEL5 with Oracle Database gateway and unixODBC 2.2.14.
    DB link works. However, null values from DB2 cause problems. Date columns that are null on db2 return a date '30.11.0002', and character columns that are null return an error ORA-28528: Heterogeneous Services datatype conversion error.
    isql returns correct results.
    How can i fix this? Perhaps set some parameters for data conversion on the gateway?
    Thank you.

    If the driver is not fully ODBC level 3 compliant and misses functions, we're lost. But sometimes the drivers are ODBC level 3 compliant but miss the correct 64bit implementation. In those cases we can tell the gateway to use the 32bit ODBC level 3 standard by setting in the gateway init file:

  • I want to uninstall ReloadEvery as I think it is causing problems however it is not in my list of Extensions or Plugins yet it is clearly installed, I tried reinstalling FF but it was still there! How can I get rid of it?

    I installed ReloadEvery a while ago and it seemed to be working fine however I am now having problems with FF crashing and weird things like pages not reloading and not being able to use the back button etc
    I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling FF and upgrading to FF 4.
    When I upgraded to FF 4 I was still having problems even though I didn't have any Extensions installed at all, or so I thought. I noticed that ReloadEvery was still installed. I was rather puzzled as I had done a clean install of FF 4. I want to remove ReloadEvery to see if it will solve my problems.
    I have also tried following the help on the FF Troubleshooting about manually uninstalling Extensions but again ReloadEvery not listed there yet I am still able to use it in FF!
    I want to get rid of it!! I really need some help please.

  • FF 3.6 AND 5 on same Mac, 1 profile - can I uninstall 5 without causing problems running 3.6 or with the profile?

    I upgraded from 3.6.16 to 5, but don't like how 5 handles tabs (auto reloading 'problem loading' tabs when internet connection is reestablished). So I installed 3.6 in a separate folder, e.g. both versions are on this computer. I went back to using 3.6, and let it upgrade to either 3.6.18 or 19 (don't recall which & it's not open right now). I'm having problems with it using too much CPU & Memory, and not sure if that's a difference between 3.6.16 & 3.6.18/19, or if having 5 on the same computer even if closed could be causing the problem.
    Can I uninstall 5 without causing problems with the 3.6 version and the single profile?

    If you haven't tried this, give it a try. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you. In your version 3 firefox, disable all extensions, I had two plugins (doubletwist and joost, disable those if you have them). Then install firefox 5 by overwriting your version 3 firefox. It should work fine after that. I tried everything before, I gave that a last ditch shot. Oh yeah, before you install firefox 5, clear your cache of everything just to be sure.
    Hopefully that helps.

  • I have two Iphones with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID. Will that cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

    I have two Iphones 5 with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID account.Both are using IOS 8.
    I would like to set up a new Apple Id for one of the phones and remove it from the old account.
    If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
    Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

  • Problems with ViaVoice under Leopard, especially key mapping problems

    ViaVoice's behavior has changed considerably under Leopard. First I will discuss the key mapping problem, since I'm eagerly looking for an answer to this problem. At the end of this post, I will voice some of the other problems I've experienced for those who may be interested. The key mapping problem may be specific to the fact that I use a foreign keyboard with a US version of ViaVoice.
    INTRO:
    I have used ViaVoice on my Mac for years, more or less without problems (ViaVoice's bugginess is notorious).
    Those who know ViaVoice will know that one has two general options for dictation. One can dictate into ViaVoice's so-called SpeakPad, which allows special formatting, editing and dictation error correction within the dictated text, or one can dictate into "external" software such as Microsoft Word, in which case ViaVoice just sends a string of characters to that software. SpeakPad appears to make strong use of the operating system's built-in functionality for character formatting, document formatting, etc.
    *MY PROBLEM*
    I have a German keyboard on my PowerBook, yet dictate in US English. When I dictated into SpeakPad under Tiger, all characters appeared correctly. However, when I dictated into Microsoft Word using Tiger, I had to switch the keyboard mapping from German to US to get all characters (that means including the characters that are located at different positions on a German keyboard than they are on a US keyboard such as y, z, apostrophes and parentheses) to appear correctly.
    Under Leopard, things have changed. Now it doesn't matter whether I dictate into SpeakPad or Word; the results are the same and many characters do not appear correctly.
    If set to a German keyboard, y and z appear as expected. To name a few irregularities:
    "(" appears as ")"
    ")" appears as "="
    apostrophes appear as "#" and
    ";" appears as ","
    If set to a US keyboard, y and z are interchanged. "(" and ")" appear as expected. Apostrophes appear as "\" and ";" appears as ","
    By comparison, if typed (as opposed to dictated, as in the examples above) "correctly" (i.e. based on the letters printed on the keyboard) on a German keyboard set to imitate a US keyboard:
    y and z are interchanged
    apostrophes appear as "|"
    "(" appears as "*"
    ")" appears as "(" and
    ";" appears as the symbol for "less than"
    Since I don't have a US keyboard, I can't say how it would behave if set to imitate a German keyboard, i.e. if there's a correlation to the results I get when I dictate.
    Since I was previously able to dictate correctly into SpeakPad by setting the keyboard to "German" and into Word by setting the keyboard to "US," I presume that this is a problem in Leopard, not ViaVoice.
    *OTHER PROBLEMS WITH VIAVOICE UNDER LEOPARD*
    In addition to the aforementioned key mapping problems (that may be specific to those of us with foreign keyboards), ViaVoice appears to have lost considerable functionality in Leopard. I cannot access SpeakPad's Preferences and the correction window. Moreover, the traffic-light like window buttons have disappeared from the VoiceCenter (although they work if you click where they should be). SetupAssistent appears to function.
    I've written to Nuance about these problems, but have little hope that they will invest the time in producing a patch since they haven't released any updates since 2003.

    Thrums1,
    I've never had to "register" ViaVoice after updating the system. I thus suspect you haven't fully followed my above, three-step advice (particularly step 3).
    1) Reinstall ViaVoice from CD.
    2) Update to the latest version (using the patch downloadable from Nuance's website).
    3) Replace the “temp” and “users” folders (in the "ViaVoice" folder at the upper level of your home directory) by a previous copy thereof. When I say previous copy, I mean a copy from when ViaVoice was still working properly, e.g. a copy from when it was running under Tiger.
    As I said, I've gotten ViaVoice to survive several system updates by following the above steps. To my knowledge, the last step is critical since it saves you from having to reconfigure ViaVoice under the new operating system (in this case Leopard). I suspect that ViaVoice is crashing on your system because it's trying to start some module of the SetUpAssistant that is incompatible with Leopard (as many are). If you instead use old copies of the "temp" and "users" folders (from the previous system), then ViaVoice doesn't have to go through the initial "registration" process; ViaVoice doesn't need the SetUpAssistant; and all is (more or less) fine.
    Good luck!
    BTW, to my knowledge, Dictate only runs on Intel Macs. It thus won't run on a G4 iBook, just as it won't run on my PowerBook G4.

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

  • TS3579 I found this useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data.  I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up

    I found this  (TS3579: If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac Learn about If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac) useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data.  I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up in Finder. 

    It sounds like there are a couple things going on here.  First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
    Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance.  Once you find this, make sure the service is started. 
    If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error.  If you get an error, post the error message your hitting.  If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect.  If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
    name in the connection dialog.  Ex:  "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name.  However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format.  Ex:  COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
    is the instance name you set during install).
    You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install.  Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
    recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

  • I replaced my hard drive and used time machine to boot from but it installedthe unrepaired disk permissions of the faulty previous drive would this cause problems on my new drive?

    I replaced my hard drive on macbook pro and used time machine to boot from but it also installed the unrepaired disk permmissions of the other drive, would this cause problems to my new drive?

    Can you remember what the permissions problem was that you had before? You may need to reinstall OS X from scratch and not reinstall anything from your Time Machine backups. To be on the safe side you should reinstall all third-party applications from scratch, as well. Then only restore from your backup your document/data files.

  • I deleted the 4oD app from my iPad but it still appears in the list in Settings. How do I get rid of that? It is causing problems when they issue updates as it apparently thinks I still have it when I don't.

    Can any one help me get rid of a deleted app 4oD that still appears in the Settings list. I deleted it from the home screen and Spotlight search confirms it has gone. It is causing problems because I get notified of updates and I cannot get rid of them either. I have tried re-downloading via my MacBook because there isn't a download option from the iPad (App Store clearly think I still have it when I don't) then deleting again but the listing in Settings remains.
    It is really irritating me.
    Thanks.

    Have you tried deleting the App within the Settings menu (rather than from the Home Screen)?
    Settings>General>Usage>
    From the Apps list, find the App (press "Show all Apps" if the app is not in the immediately shown list), tap on the app you wish to delete, then tap "Delete App"
