Q: How to drag ICONS between pages?

This is likely a very simple question that has been answered many times .Also I am too lazy to read Apples FAQ on this.
I now have over 100 apps installed spanning over 9 pages. It's time to aarange these apps so that they are in meaningful categories / pages. There must be a simple trick to moving an app ICON from one page to another but for now I am stumped.
Thanks for any help
Ken

Just hold your finger on the icon until they all start to wiggle, then don't let go and just drag it across pages. As for multiple icons at once, you can't.
If you have 9 pages of apps on your iPhone, I think you need to put down the phone and go outside for a while

Can't drag icons across pages

I uploaded all my iPhone apps and now I'm de-cluttering the mess. Few icons move across pages and the empty pages don't close. I can't move folders across pages at all. What trick am I missing?

It can be done, but from my personal experience it takes a special touch. An easier way would be to connect your iPad to iTunes, open the device, click on apps and you can use your mouse to drag icons from page to page and even create folders, by dropping one app into another (when you do, a name the folder bar opens as well).

How to pass values between pages?

Hi
Anybody know how you pass values like ids between pages using buttons?
Cheers

Hi
Why do you want to do this? You can access values from other pages so if you are on page 2 and there is an item on page 1 called P1_ID you can simply assign it to an item on page 2 by typing in P1_ID in the source value for your page 2 item.
Or you could reference it direct in your pl/sql process by typing &P1_ID. (note the fullstop)
If you did want to pass a value using a button you can do so by clicking on the button name in then scroll down to the section called optional URL redirect.
set target is a - to page in this application
then select the page you want the button to send you to
then click the flashlight icon next to set these items
you can then select the page item you want to send the value to and the page item you are getting the value from.

How do I transition between pages using something other than a white screen

When the site first pulls up (I see this in Safari intermittently but not Firefox) the background is white (outside the page). After switching between pages it goes back to black. Can I have it use any other color besides white? How do I do this?
Also, when trying to pull up in Internet Explorer, there are numerous problems loading. How do I optimize for this browser?
dancingdogtreasures.com

Roddy has some tips at his iWeb for Musicians site: How to get your iWeb Site to load in Internet Explorer.
Using an optimizing application like Web Site Maestro can greatly reduce the "weight" of a site's pages to facilitate faster loading. I use it event thought my sites are geared for Mac users and it greatly reduces the size of the files in the site.

How to remove space between pages in Oracle Reports 6i?

Hi,
I have customized one oracle report (rdf). Earlier, the standard report was showing the ouput in pages i.e. there exists space beteen the pages. But I want my custom report in such a way that it should show me the result in one page i.e. there should be no space between the pages as user wants to spool the output into excel sheet (xls format) after getting the result output obtained from my custom report. Presently, when i spool the data into excel sheet, there is still the space exists between the pages like...few records will come then white space...then records.
How can I remove this space, so that user can easily spool the data into excel without existence of white space.
Any sort of help on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
My report is running on Unix. When I checked the output file in unix where it is getting generated, i saw ^L characters wherever the space appears when i see the output in apps (notepad) , like after every page where I am able to see the space in my output, there ^L is appearing in output file in unix, so how can I avoid this.
I tried to adjust the frames and repeatinf frames also, even i tried changing the properties also of main region (body), but nothing is working for me and still the same issue occurs. I am not aware of this. Please suggest me.
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Sumir

How to copy textbox between pages docs?

when I copy and paste, the result is no where to be found. Option drag wont move the textbox to the other document. how is this done?

What I you hoping ?
When we copy paste a text block, we get a text block in the target document but its location is not guaranteed.
Sure, it would be fine if the block was pasted where we put the cursor.
I really don't know which is the rule used by the program to define the destination point.
If like me you wish that the object is inserted where we put the cursor,
_Go to "Provide Pages Feedback" in the "Pages" menu_, describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait _at least_ for iWork'10
As far as I know, the drag and drop feature doesn't apply to transfer the text blocks from a document to an other one.
For this feature too a feedback to Apple would be interesting.

How to switch quickly between Pages documents?

Is there a way to switch quickly, back and forth, between open Pages documents. Similar to the "tabs" function in Safari.

I which the help files were adapted for swedish keyboard when in swedish!!
We can't get that because the User Guides are translated by beings which never used the application.
They receive an English text and they must translate it in an other language.
I'm accustomed to that for years and I would be surprised if something changes in this area.
As far as I know, nobody in Apple France saw the localized iWork '09 before the day it was introduced.
I was asked to search oddities *_after the delivery_*
Some oddities available in iWork '08 French version are always here in iWork '09 and I'm not sure that they will be gone when we will get the next version.
It was the same for AppleWorks which I beta tested two times.
Tests where made upon the US version and all of us discovered the localized versions when they where delivered. In the Help, every examples of formulas where using the comma as parameters separators when the correct one was the semi-colon.
For sure, it's ridiculous but it's the way foreign customers are treated by Apple.
I'm remembering that I edited a resource dedicated to samples of functions.
With the edited resource, Swiss users where able to use the "insert functions" feature with the separator matching their system settings.
The problem is the same with iWork.
The delivered French version inserts functions with semi-colons between parameters, even is the user setting is "Swiss French" which use the decimal period and require the comma as separator.
Same behavior with Deutsch and Italian.
But not is completely bad.
I never succeed when I requested correct treatment of "curly quotes" in AppleWorks.
For info, the correct structure is *_« caractères chevrons »_* (the first space and the last one are required, at least for French of France).
I started to request them when I start using iWork '06.
They wheren't introduced by the different updaters but, hosannah, they are available in iWork '08.
In fact, we got only the quotes, not the required spaces.
So I requested again the spaces.
They wheren't introduced by the different updaters but, hosannah, they are available in iWork '09.
I remember that I wrote to Apple that I was surprised to see that their staff of engineers appeared to be less efficient than the single developer which was delivering Bean.

How do I move icons between screens?

Friends,
I have an ipad2 and an iphone. On the iphone, I can easily drag icons between screens by press and holding, then dragging the icon to the side -- the adjacent screen the appears and I can drag the icon to that screen. When I try the same thing on my ipad2, the adjacent screen does not appear. I'm able to move the icons when connected to itunes, but that's a pain.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
Steve

All you are missing is patience. Move the icon to the edge of the screen and hold it about halfway over to the next screen for a second or two. Then suddenly the app will jump to the next screen.

How to drag and drop between portlets?

Howdy!
Could someone please be kind enough to show me how to drag and drop data between portlets. I want to select an icon, drag it to an application and launch the file associated with the icon in the application.
I can do it within a portlet with some js functions but when I try it between portlets (on the same page)I see the forbiden sign.
Thanks

How to drag and drop icon in the browser

hi
i Have A web page that i should drag some responces from right to their correct location in Left.in pc I hold left mouse buttom and drag icon into its Correct place and drop it but I can't do that on the android browser. how should I do that? and firefox is only
browser that support my web page.

Some websites are programed to recognize tap actions instead of clicks, but others design the site to have a mobile version and a desktop version.
However I do not know if this will do this automatically. For example if you have a drop down menu in a form, it will drop down if you tap it on a mobile device and will do the same thing if you click it in a desktop browser.
It is possible to try to long tap then try to drag it, but if the website does not have it programmed, it may not work. There is Javascript UI touch punch that you can check out to develop this capability, but that would be a question for stackoverflow.com.
I am sorry I could not be more helpful.

How do I hide the grey space between pages in a document?

I am still trying to learn Pages after using MS Word for many years and I am unable to find how to eliminate the space between pages in a document on screen. I should add that after reading a lot of reviews re: versions of Pages I ordered a CD of iWorks 09 as the concensus seemed to be that the earlier versions were much better than the most recent. Anyway, I would like to just see the text and nothing else as though it is just one very long page! How can I do that without updating to the current version of Pages?
I have a MB Pro running iWork 09 version 4.3 on Yosemite (up-to-date).

Thanks for the response, Peter! I have seen your replies on many questions and you seem to be the bomb when it comes to Mac 'stuff' !
I guess i didn't explain myself well...I do not want to eliminate pages, I merely did not want to have all that wasted space (margins/footnotes/headers/grey) between the text I have on each page. It is merely for what I see on the screen - not elimination of the formatting/paging etc..
I have about a 15-20 page 'cheat sheet' that I have open frequently on the far right of my screen as I am working at my laptop which I refer to intermittently. I need to scroll thru pages to find what I am looking for and I just wanted to reclaim some real estate, so to speak. I don't want to change anything other than what I see on the screen - if I choose to print all or part of my 'cheat sheet' the format doesn't change and I can print whatever individual pages necessary! Actually I think there may still be a line showing a page break but no real 'space' between the pages.
Did this explanation help to further delineate what I am trying to do? and is it possible?

How to drag and drop tab nodes between tab panes

I'm working on example from this tutorial( Drag-and-Drop Feature in JavaFX Applications | JavaFX 2 Tutorials and Documentation ). Based on the tutorial I want to drag tabs between two tabs. So far I managed to create this code but I need some help in order to finish the code.
Source
tabPane = new TabPane();
Tab tabA = new Tab();
   Label tabALabel = new Label("Main Component");
tabPane.setOnDragDetected(new EventHandler<MouseEvent>()
            @Override
            public void handle(MouseEvent event)
                /* drag was detected, start drag-and-drop gesture*/
                System.out.println("onDragDetected");
                /* allow any transfer mode */
                Dragboard db = tabPane.startDragAndDrop(TransferMode.ANY);
                /* put a string on dragboard */
                ClipboardContent content = new ClipboardContent();
                content.put(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT, tabPane);
                db.setContent(content);
                event.consume();
What is the proper way to insert the content of the tab as object? Into the tutorial simple text is transferred. How I must modify this line content.put(DataFormat.PLAIN_TEXT, tabPane);?
And what is the proper way to insert the tab after I drag the tab:
Destination
tabPane.setOnDragDropped(new EventHandler<DragEvent>()
            @Override
            public void handle(DragEvent event)
                /* data dropped */
                /* if there is a string data on dragboard, read it and use it */
                Dragboard db = event.getDragboard();
                boolean success = false;
                if (db.hasString())
                    //tabPane.setText(db.getString());
                    Tab tabC = new Tab();
                    tabPane.getTabs().add(tabC);
                    success = true;
                /* let the source know whether the string was successfully
                 * transferred and used */
                event.setDropCompleted(success);
                event.consume();
I suppose that this transfer can be accomplished?
Ref javafx 2 - How to drag and drop tab nodes between tab panes - Stack Overflow

I would use a graphic (instead of text) for the Tabs and call setOnDragDetected on that graphic. That way you know which tab is being dragged. There's no nice way to put the Tab itself into the dragboard as it's not serializable (see https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-29082), so you probably just want to store the tab currently being dragged in a property.
Here's a quick example; it just adds the tab to the end of the current tabs in the dropped pane. If you wanted to insert it into the nearest location to the actual drop you could probably iterate through the tabs and figure the coordinates of each tab's graphic, or something.

How to manage wait time in between pages loading

Hi,
Could you please help me "How to manage wait time in between pages loading while playback script using etester?
Thanks,
RJ.

RJ
You can edit the think time in eTester by:
Expand the tree node and right click on the address bar to select Address Properties, you can then edit the text box called Delay Before PlayBack
If you like to specify think time between actions instead of action groups: right click on the actions ans select properties, there are 2 text boxes in the new window; one for milliseconds and the other for seconds
Hope this helps
