Q10 buggy stuff with text entry making me sad

I impulsively replaced my 9700 with a Q10 instead of the S4 i wanted, and now i regret it. I am hoping these are just user errors as I want to love the Q10 and it's lovely keyboard.
Two major issues:
1. Autofill -- how the heck do you turn off text auto fill when typing text into the browser?? it offers me three autofill options of full sentences. So yeah, how many sentences do you think start with THE or I that I want to repeat??
2. Word Substitution -- after going to great lengths to re-set up all my favourite word substitution short cuts, none of them work when typing text in the browser. They once worked fine texting or in emails, but not browser text. However, after a couple battery pulls, Word Substitution does not work in any text entry function. Lovely.
These are my settings
>System Settings
>Language and Input
>>Display Language: Language, Region, Measurement System
>>Text Input: Input languages, Prediction and Correction, Spell Check
>>Other Input Methods: Voice Dictation
Prediction and Correction
>> Prediction Display

Word Substitution: ON (that said, turning it on or off makes NO difference)

Calendar on iOS 7. Anyone noticed that when you enter text into the "notes section" of a day, the text disappears behind the keyboard rather than scrolling down to keep pace with text entry ? Looks like an 7 glitch to me ?

Doesn't do that for me. Try resetting the phone

I continue to have problems with text entry with Android 4.1.2 -- Any word on an update?

When my phone (Droid 4: I like the physical keyboard, which seems to be going the way of the dodo) was upgraded to 4.1.2 a while back, the following happened:
-- Spell check disappeared from text entry using any browser;
-- Auto-complete started losing track of where I was in a sentence, so hitting backspace deleted entire words instead of the last character typed;
-- The Swype keyboard ceased to function.
As a result, I had to give up on many of the spell-check features and give up on the Swype keyboard.
I'm really hoping that an update is forthcoming, and further, that it will fix the issues with the last one.
Anyone have any idea?

I have not installed any third party messaging apps or keyboard functionality apps, at least not intentionally. I rebooted in Safe Mode and all symptoms are the same. I tested it by going to Google Translate, which has a web input window. Spell check was inactive, Swype was capitalizing every word, making it basically useless.
A symptom that I failed to mention continues to be present in Safe Mode also – when hitting the shift key and backspacing, the selected text is not highlighted, so I basically have to guess what I’ve selected, and only find out if I’m right once I hit backspace or start typing in replacement text.
Spell check was inactive in third party applications also, for example Quick Office. It did show up in Gmail. I was unable to duplicate any application getting lost in terms of where the cursor is so that I deleted the wrong text; however, this is an intermittent problem, so I would probably have to do a lot of typing, etc., to duplicate it. However, I have seen other posts complaining about phone behavior very similar to what I reported.
Bottom line – The phone acted precisely the same in Safe Mode as it did outside of Safe Mode.
Thanks.
(Also, it would be helpful if you could tell me how to reply to a post in the community – I got this reply posted by replying to the e-mail, but I don’t see any reply link on the message webpage.)

Problem with Text Entry BoX in Adobe Captivate 6

I could not enter correct responses for my text entry box. Plus, the "success" and " failure" options were greyed out for me under properties>options.
I notice my icon is IAB for text entry box, whereas some users have a placeholder sign for the icon.

This is very strange, even when not validated you should have at least the Success option in the Properties panel. If it is not validated you are left only with the Success event, that can fire an action when the Submit button for the TEB is pressed (or the shortcut key is used). You cannot be working on a master slide, because it is not possible to insert a TEB there. Please, post a screenshot of the stage with the properties panel, actions accordion.

Using ALT+_ with Text Entry

Hi there,
I am trying to use Alt+A as the shortcut for several text entry boxes, but I can't get it to validate. As I searched for a solution, I did find this thread (where someone was trying to use ALT with clickboxes) where Adobe responded:
The problem is with actionscript 3. It does not send “Alt” keydown messages to event listeners in actionscript inside browser. In actionscript 2, there was a utility class named “Key” which has since been removed in Actionscript3. Using “Key” class we could determine whether “Alt” key is down in AS2. Now we have don’t have those means."
Does that mean that I can't use ALT as a shortcut?
I am using CP5, publishing to an exe file, on a windows 7 machine.
Thanks!

I'm afraid the answer is Yes. Many keystrokes are problematic this way. You'll need to find another shortcut to use.

AppleScript Studio/Xcode problem - Problem with text entries! Please help!

Hey, I've been up for hours each night looking for solutions to this but still have had no luck.
I am creating an app in Xcode/Applescript studio that will ask you to enter how many times you would like system events to repeat a certain keystroke. First of all, the code would look something like this:
on click theObject
If the name of theObject is equal to "myApplication" then
(Right here would be where the variables representing text in an input in the app's window would be, which I have absolutely no clue what to type.)
tell application "text edit"
activate
tell application "system events"
keystroke x (x representing a variable)
end tell
end tell
end clicked
and that's about as far as I can get. I want a variable representing the text in the main text entry box, but I have no clue how to access that text, or even know if it's submitted or detected when I hit a button. Hopefully you're following, as I am way to confused to fully explain it, but please try and help me out if you can.

Hi Kamprath445,

Help with Text Entry Box?

I recorded a presentation in Training mode, and one of the prompts I recorded is for the learner to "Please enter the number 20 in xxx field." When I publish, the learner has to enter in 20, BUT the 20 that I typed in the field to capture the required action is visible, as well - so the learner is required to type over the 20 that appears in the background. Is there any way to have the 20 I typed in as the answer to not appear?
Thank you!

Thanks for the quick response! I'm using 5.5 (still a relative novice). All of the "click here," "select this" directives work just fine - this is the only "Please enter xxx" directive I have in the presentation.

Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
Thanks,

Submit All button for all text entry boxes at end of exam in Captivate 7

Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum, and I was hoping that someone could help me out with a problem that has been eating my lunch for the last week.
I have a captivate 7 project that I am setting up as a virtual workbook, with text entry boxes asking true/false, yes/no, and short essay questions through out the most part of the workbook, and then at the end it has a series of multiple choice questions that are set up on question slides. Is there a way to have all of the text entered in the text entry boxes submited along with the quiz questions at the end, to my LMS? And if at all possible, still inform the user if there are any questions that have not been answered? Like I said, I am new to this forum, so if I forgot to include any important information, I apologise, but if anyone could help me ouot, I would be extreemly thankful!
thanks,
Luke

thenks for the reply Lilybiri! As far as I have been able to find, there is no way to associate a submit all button with TEBs, so I am not sure if this is something that I am overlooking, or if I am misunderstanding the recomemendation.
What I am trying to do is set up a bunch of TEBs to be answer entry boxes for questions throughout the workbook, which will lead up to an exam. The exam, I am good on, because it has the submit all button attached. But the TEBs that I am using as the answer entry boxes, I can't seem to find a way to link them all to the same submit button.
I hope I am being pretty clear about it, but I've been pounding away at this for a while, so I fear it might come out a but rambly. So, please let me know if I need to clarify anything.
Thanks!

Clear Text Entry after wrong answer

Hello,
I'm searching a way for clearing text entry box after the
user entered a wrong answer.
If this it's not possible to do that with text entry, is it
possible to do that with captivate question quiz, or somthing else?
Thank you
Miky Aviel

The problem is that the text-entry object is a "scoring
object" and it is considered best practice NOT to allow movement to
and fro once a scoring object has been answered.
The solution is to move forward through the eLearning
experience, not back and forth. So how does that apply? Well, one
way is to duplicate the slide, including the text-entry object, so
the same problem can be offered for solution in the slide(s)
following the failed effort. The same principals apply to question
slides ... if you want the user to retake a failed effort, you
should add (for instance) an "explanation" slide after the question
slide and route the use to that following failure; then the
following slide can be a re-creation of the question slide if you
want to give the student a second chance at the same question.
There are problems with doing it this way - for one, the
scoring is going to be "skewed" - or could be unless the second
attempt is weighted at "zero". But since the basic learning concept
of asking each question only once is being thrown out anyway, the
skewed scoring may not be a big deal (?).

Text entry box with double-click button - is this possible?

I need to produce a simulation in Captivate 3 where the user types in some text, then double-clicks a button to open another window.
With a normal text entry box the button doesn't seem to have the option to respond to a double click.
I can't add in an extra slide with a click box to simulate the double-click as I have icons that change colour with time on the first slide.
Are there any other ways of getting round this?

Thanks for the suggestion. That would work brilliantly normally, just not on this slide, unfortunately.
The reason for this is I have two hint icons on the screen - 1 shows a basic one then the second is a rollover slidelet with a clip of the correct action being performed. The first is on screen for a few seconds, then the second takes over.
The earliest I would be able to set the second click would be around 8 seconds in, to allow the second hint to appear before the text box pauses the slide. So anyone who immediately knew which area to click would have to click once then wait a while to make the second click.
It's annoying that the problem is of my own making by having the 2 icons, but as I've done this through a series of lessons, I can't really change it now.
I might just go ahead with the single click option (unless there's a double-click in C4? [hoping to get this soon!]) and hope that no-one notices that the screen changes a bit too quickly to really have registered the second click.

Excel Table with Data Connection Manual Text Entry Misaligned After Refresh

Greetings!
I have an Excel 2010 workbook that includes a table linked to my SharePoint 2013 site by a data connection. The SharePoint list feeds the table standard information that's managed on the SharePoint site, but I need the user of the Excel workbook to be able
to enter text manually in the workbook to associate local information with the line-items coming from the SharePoint list. To do this, I've added extra columns to the end of the table.
The user can enter information in the appropriate cells in the "extra" columns at the end of the table, but when I refresh the data connection, the addition of a new list item on the SharePoint side results in the user's manually entered text getting
out of alignment with the row it's supposed to be associated with.
Example
Column 1(SP)
Column 2(Extra)
Row 1
Item 1
Row 2
Item 2
Text entered for Item 2
Row 3
Item 3
Then, if I add a new item to the list in SharePoint, for example, something that would appear between the original items 1 & 2, after refreshing the table, I get the following:
Column 1(SP)
Column 2(Extra)
Row 1
Item 1
Row 2
New Item 1.5
Text entered for Item 2
Row 3
Item 2
Row 4
Item 3
The table's data connection is set to insert rows for new items, and I could swear I had this working properly once upon a time...but I can't seem to make it work now.
Any thoughts on what would cause this?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is. I realized after posting the first time, that I'd assigned the question to the Visio forum. I wasn't sure how to reassign to the correct (Excel) forum, so I re-posted over there:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/b3bbe00c-94c0-48d4-bed9-fbd08d707b1d/excel-table-with-sharepoint-data-connection-manual-text-entry-misaligned-after-refresh?forum=exceldev

How can I get a click box to interact with a text entry box on the same page?

I'm creating a tutorial on using a specific system and trying to recreate what the end user would actual do in the system. On one slide, the end user must enter text into a field, then press a button (click box) to advance to the next slide. I want to be able to have the click box validate if the text entry is correct before advancing to the next slide. Is there a way to get the click box to validate the text entry? Not sure how to get the two objects to "talk" to each other rather than function independently.
Literally, I want the end user to enter the data in the text entry box, then click on the Get button. I need the Get button (click box) to both validate that the data entered in the text entry box is correct and, if it is, advance to the next slide. If the data is incorrect, I need the Get button (click box) to show the failure caption and have the end user re-enter the data correctly.
How do I get the objects to work together?

Hi there
You need to delete the Click Box. Yes, you heard me. Delete the puppy.
I know it sounds weird. But bear with me. After you delete it, double-click the Text Entry Box. Then click the Options tab. See that option called Show Button? Click it and click OK to dismiss the TEB properties.
Now you have the button you want. If you don't want a button, double-click it and set it as transparent. Remove the text. Position as desired where the Click Box was before.
Cheers... Rick

Text Entry with Tab Key not advancing to next slide

I am using Captivate 1 to create a screen that has a text
entry requiring the user to press the Tab key as the Shortcut Key.
The users are having to press the Tab key multiple times to get the
course to advance to the next slide. There does not seem to be a
rhyme or reason to which text entries this occurs in, nor does
there seem to be a pattern to the number of times or forcefulness
in which the Tab key must be pressed, though more aggressive key
presses have yielded better results. Sadly, requesting the users
bang the Tab key with as much force as they can muster is not a
viable option.
Here are things I have tried:
Decrease length of slide
Increasing active time of the text entry
Adding/removing playback control
Deleting and recreating text entries
If anyone has any idea what can be done to correct this
problem, it would be much appreciated.

Hi berrylicious877
The following has worked for me in Cap1, so try it and see:
Add the text entry box and include the submit button.
Make the submit button transparent and edit text to a full
stop at the smallest available font size (Captivate won't accept a
submit button without something typed in and a full stop is the
smallest thing available display wise)
On the submit button, set the shortcut key to "Tab".
My reasoning was that the shortcut key on the text entry box
"activates" the box, thus allowing input and the shortcut key on
the "submit" button "deactivates" the box so that the slide can
move on as required.
Please let us know if this helps.
Andrew
