Reset button for text entry field

Hello,
How do I add a reset button that removes information entered into a text entry field?
Thanks in advanced!

Hmm, is there a reason why you don't use the Likert type of question, and have the Clear button (you can change the label to 'Reset') available? That would be a lot easier.
And if you want to create such a custom slide, why don't you use the enhanced radiobuttons widget from Jim Leichliter? I explained how to reset the radiobuttons choice it in this blog post:
http://blog.lilybiri.com/extended-widgets-for-custom-mcq-and-tf-questi
And in this one I explained similar work flow for the extended TextArea widget. Same logic can be used for the enhanced TEB I talked about in my first answer:
http://blog.lilybiri.com/extended-textarea-widget-more-functionality
Since you are using 5.5, no output for HTML5 is possible, so you can use those widgets. Really, although I'm an Advanced Actions fan, I would never try to realize this the way you are doing it. Maybe with shared actions in 7, or with the new copy+paste functionality for advanced actions in 7.0.1 but not in 5.5. Be sure: my memory about the different versions is pretty good.

Errors: Length for text entry field must be between 1 and 32

Hi Guys,
I have has the following error messgage when defining and using a text variable in a series of columns in a characteristic structure. In addition the text display does not work for 1 specific calculated key figure, It just displays the name of the text variable. Where ever this type of calculation is used I get the text variable tecnical name displayed!
i.e &0T_FPER& -2 % on LY where calc =
'&0T_FPER& -2 Actual'/'&0T_FPER& -2 Last Year' -1) * 100
There is a calc KF as above for -1 % on LY, and LY
Why do i get the above error message and how can I get the text variable to display for the this Calc Key Figure?
Thanks
DV

Hi Depesh,
I had the same issue and I solved it by moving the rest of the text beside the Text Variable to the next line. I.e.,
&0T_FPER&
-2 %
To do this just go to the end of the text variable and click enter.
Hope this helps.

Hi there,
I have placed 2 text entry fields that are for username & a password, I on publish/preview, I type the username and go to hit the TAB key to move to the password field but nothing happens & cursor does not move to the other field...

Kind Regards
Rossco
DOH! I just found some more information on tabbing between these fields, so will check that out fisrt........must be Friday (over here)

Hi There,
Welcome to Adobe Forum.
Have you tried using the shortcut option assigned as "Tab" in the action properties of the text entry box as shown in the following image:

Display score for text entry

Is there any way that allow me to diaplay the score sheet for
text entry? wat the example taught in authorware is in response
with buttons.
Thanks.

A score is a score. So if you have scored the text entry you
should be able
to display it exactly how you've been taught to display it.
Not sure what
you mean by "taught in authorware" but the same principles
should apply.

Text Entry fields in Training mode to Typing field in Demo mode

My SME has decided she doesn't want the learners to actually type in a bunch of fields in the Training sim I'm making and instead wants them to be shown the fields being filled in for them, like the way Captivate does in Demo mode. Is there a way to quickly and easily change Text Entry fields in a Training sim to the Typing format from Demo mode? Does that even make sense? HELP! I'm using Captivate 4 and will be outputing to Flash to embed into an Articulate presentation. Thanks!

Hi there
Probably the best you can hope for is to copy the text to the Windows Clipboard. Then delete the Text Entry Box object and insert a Text Animation. You have two to choose from for just basic typing.
Typing Text
Typing Text with Sound
Then you would paste the copied text as the text to be typed and configure the font characteristics as necessary.
Cheers... Rick

Text Entry Field All Caps?

Is there a way to make the text entry field show all caps as an end user types?
Thank you,
cgoebel

Hi Lilybiri,
When you say "after submitting", what does that mean? I need the text to show as all caps as the end user is typing...and can then retain it if the lesson requires using the Retain Text property.
And since this may be possible via JavaScript, anyone have the script to share?
Thank you,
cgoebel

On Android 4.2.2 on a Nexus7 tablet - No Firefox button and most text entry fields do not work at all

I installed Firefox 19.0.2 and appears to be ok, but I don't see a Firefox button anywhere, so I cannot access any of the functions that it controls, such as bookmarks, which is why I installed it!
The ASUS Nexus 7 tablet shows up as a supported platform.
I set it as the default link browser, but quickly realized that I could not enter text into any data entry fields, so I reset the default back to Chrome, which works fine for that.
I installed Firefox because bookmarks in Chrome are very lame, but I can't use bookmarks at all in Firefox, so again Chrome wins.
Any suggestions, before I uninstall it?

I am now a Democrat supporter. dccc.org does accept text input from my mobile.
The forum problem I mentioned earlier is apparently a known issue but only affecting legacy phones.

Using a reset button for a dynamic table

I have a 6 page form that includes several dynamic tables. There is a reset button that clears only specific parts of the form because it is something that will be filled out weekly and a lot of the information will stay the same. My problem is that I want the reset button to clear specific rows of the table, but reset whatever is typed in the row for every instance in the table. The reset button only clears the row I want in the first column, not all the other columns/instances. Has anyone done this before or have any suggestions?
I don't want to include the whole script for the reset button because it has about 100 fields to clear but essentially this is what I have for the dynamic table and it works but only for the first column/instance, the rest stay the same:
xfa.host.resetData("form1.Page1.Subform1.Table1.Row5.Textbox1.somExpression");

Hi,
I’m not sure I understand your exact scenario but I use a function in a script object that I pass in a subform (possibly the top subform to reset the whole form) and the function resets all fields within it.
function resetData(node)
    if (node.className === "field")
        var enableResetData = node.desc.nodes.namedItem("enableResetData");
        if (enableResetData === null || enableResetData.value === true)
            // reset all fields except those with enableResetData set to false
            node.rawValue = null;
    else
        for (var i = 0; i < node.nodes.length; i++)
            var currentNode = node.nodes.item(i);
            if (currentNode.isContainer)
                // ignore some form objects
                if (currentNode.className !== "draw" &&
                    currentNode.className !== "variables")
                    resetData(currentNode);
If there are any fields that I don’t want reset I put the following code in the initialise event of those fields. Depending on the number of fields involved you might what to reverse this logic. (you could also add the desc.enableResetData element in the XML Source view)
var enableResetData = this.desc.nodes.namedItem("enableResetData");
if (enableResetData == null)
    enableResetData = xfa.form.createNode("boolean", "enableResetData");
    this.desc.nodes.append(enableResetData);
enableResetData.value = true;
This works by storing a value “enableResetData” in the desc element of the field, allowing a generic function to have specific behaviour for particular fields.
Hope this helps.

Creating a sort of reset button for movieclips

Hi, i've got 10 movieclips in my movie. I use them for a sort
of colour sudoku game and i wanted to have a reset button which
reset them all to the first frame (which is a blank colour) Anyway,
my problem is that if the movieclip is already on that frame, it
automatically increments when the button is pressed. Does anyone
have a solution as to how i would fix this problem?

Description label for text entries in PO smartform

Hello All,
I have to make modifications to standard smartfom for Purchase order.In the standard form's output if I enter Header texts(like Header text, Header note, Gurantees,Penalty for breach of contract) all the details entered are appearing in the smartform display.But my problem is that I also want to show which detailed text shows what.For example:I want to show 'Guarantees:' description label just before the 'Guarantees' text,
'Header text' just before the actual header text.In sum , I want to show short description corresponding to each text entry along with the text entry.
Eg. If I have entered in 'Gurantees' text the description 'The following conditions are to be met'.My output currently shows ''The following conditions are to be met' but I want it to look like this 'Guarantees : 'The following conditions are to be met'. Similarly for all other text types.
Pl advise how to do this.
Thanks!

Hello,
Your going can go tough in case you use an include text.
I would suggest you to go with read_text function module
you could just complete this in minutes.
Here is the code for your refernce for read_text function Module
CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
    EXPORTING
      id                            = 'LTXT'
      language                      = 'EN'
      name                          = v_tdname1
      object                        = 'MDTXT'
    TABLES
      lines                         = it_tline1
   EXCEPTIONS
     id                            = 1
     language                      = 2
     name                          = 3
     not_found                     = 4
     object                        = 5
     reference_check               = 6
     wrong_access_to_archive       = 7

IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

clear v_text.
loop at it_tline1 INTO wa_tline1
   concatenate v_text wa_tline1-tdline into v_text..
endloop.

Can someone please tell me the default Firefox settings for Fonts and sizes (the advanced font settings, too)? I started playing around with mine and now I just want them back to normal, but there's no reset button for fonts, just the zoom features. Help!

Under "Firefox," "Preferences," and then "Fonts and Colors" there is a setting that I would like to know the default for, as well as all of those that you see when you select the "Advanced" button for Fonts.

You can see the defaults in a screenshot in this KB article: [[Some text shows up bold after upgrade]]<br />
You can check the font setting in: Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced
<br />
Default Font: Times New Roman (16)
<br />
Fonts for : Western
<br />
Proportional: Serif (16)
Serif : Times New Roman
Sans-serif : Arial
Monospace : Courier New (13)

Reset button for ACR adjustment brush

I use ACR and the adjustment brush on a daily basis. When making several corrections with the adjustment brush, each time I have to manually zero out the adjustments from the previous correction. A bit of a pain. If there were a reset button at the top to zero out all the adjustments it would greatly simplify this process.

It is clumsy but:
go to top of brush panel and double click on the "minus sign" just to the left of the exposure slider. This will reset everything but exposure. Then you must double click on the exposure slider itself to reset exposure. Of course, this is for the currently active brush.

Firefox does not open the tablet input panel for text entry

On windows tablet editions (XP in this case) handwriting input is provided by a popup entry box that normally appears when a text entry area is selected. This only happens sometimes in firefox, making convenient browsing an intermittent possibility. Previously Geckotip extension provided the utility but it has long since become obselete.

I currently use a windows 7 tablet exclusively in my medical practice. I bought and then had to return a Microsoft Surface Pro tablet because of the limitations of the TIP. I agree with your 3 points above.
Please offer the Windows 7 tablet input panel, at least as an option for those of us who use a tablet exclusively with a stylus. The touch keyboard app simply will not work for my purposes.
I too have been using the Windows 10 preview and look forward to the upgrade, but only if I can get the current Windows 7 Tablet input panel.
Thanks
