Select text not working

In my copy of Adobe Reader 9, the select text function does not work properly. After selecting the TOOLS->SELECT and ZOOM->SELECT TOOL, then moving the cursor into an area of text, the cursor appears as a + sign and allows selection of an area of the display window. After releasing the right mouse button, the selected area disappears and a display wide single line area results. I can copy an image of this one line area. What does not happen that I think should be is that the cursor should be a " | " vertical line allowing selection of text. This never happens. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader 9 to no avail to correct this problem.

Maybe you are looking at a graphic pdf, not a text filled pdf. It just
contains a picture of text.

Speak Selected Text not working Indesign CC

I used to be able to select text in Indesign and have it read back to me. Not it just reads the filename. I find it very useful to have text read to me for proofing. Please help!

Hi
I've discovered this issue too.
I'm using InDesign CC (9.2 - International English) and using the Mac OS X (10.9.1) built-in Text to Speech function.
Seems like the focus for the text reader is always on the title bar, so it will only ever read "Asterisk Untitled one at one hundred percent" (as an example for an unsaved untitled doc), no matter what is selected on the page.
Switching back to InDesign CS6 the text is read out correctly. Text is also read fine in other CC apps like Illustrator. So it appears to be isolated to InDesign.
I note, in InDesign CC that other text selected, eg the font name in the Control panel will be read correctly when selected, it is just the text in the document window (or Story Editor) that can't be read.
This is annoying enough that I will be switching back to InDesign CS6 unitl it is fixed.

Data Services- The job server you selected is not working

Long Text:
After logging in to the Data Services designer,when try to run a job it shows error -The job server you selected is not working
Latest Software version -BODS 4.0 SP2
Reproduce Steps:
1. Double click on the Project from repository, it will display the project in Project area.
2. After that it will display all the jobs under the project.
3.Right click on the job and try to execute, then it will display the "Execution Properties" windows.
Here the we can the default Job Server has been selected.
4. Try to click ok to execute the job and then we get the error-"The job server you selected is not working"

Hi
Please contact your Data services administrator to check on the server why the job server is not working.
There might be several issues like connectivity with the repository, access details , mapping in the management console etc.
And let us know the exact issue.

Cascading Select Lists - Not Working for me

I am trying to implement Denes Kubicek's Ajax Cascading Select List solution.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:119
But it is not working for me.
I'm a newbie to APEX and checked the forum for advice on cascading select lists. I saw the thread for
"Cascading Select Lists - Not Working" posted by sue and the replies by Varad Acharya, but I'm still
having issues of not seeing the alerts, not able to run the pl/sql process in SQL Workshop, and not
getting the expected results.
I have a list of countries (US - USA, CA - CANADA, etc.) and a list of states for each country. When a
user selects a country I would like to show the list of states within that country.
This is what I've done so far:
Defined an application process:
Process Point: On Demand: Run ... by a page process.
Name: CASCADING_SELECT_LIST1
Process Text:
BEGIN
OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('text/xml', FALSE);
HTP.p ('Cache-Control: no-cache');
HTP.p ('Pragma: no-cache');
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
HTP.prn ('<select>');
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || 99 || '">' || '- All States -'
|| '</option>'
FOR c IN (SELECT state_code || ' - ' || state_desc d, state_code r
FROM tbk_state
WHERE country_code = :cascading_selectlist_item_1)
LOOP
HTP.prn ('<option value="' || c.r || '">' || c.d || '</option>');
END LOOP;
HTP.prn ('</select>');
END;
defined and application item:

Created a 'Form on a table with report' as follows:
Page 5: Report on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION
Page 6: Form on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION
in HTML Header of the page attributes for 'Form on TBK_HARDWARE_LOCATION' I have:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

'APPLICATION_PROCESS=CASCADING_SELECT_LIST1',0);
get.add('CASCADING_SELECTLIST_ITEM_1',pThis.value);
gReturn = get.get('XML');
// gReturn = get.get();

Now to the problem:
I run page 5 (the report) to see the list of locations and then I try to edit a record (page 6). When I
try to select a different country I get the following error (on IE):

Varad,
First, thank you for taking the time to try to help me with this problem.
When I view the page's source code (here are the first few lines):

pSelect.options.add(l_Opt);
l_Opt.innerText = pContent;
}else{
l_Opt.appendChild(document.createTextNode(pContent));
pSelect.appendChild(l_Opt);
</script>
It looks like line 17 is:
var l_Select = html_GetElement(pSelect);
I'm still not sure why I'm getting this error and why it's not working?
Thanks,

Why is predictive text not working on my iPhone 5s anymore

Why is predictive text not working on my iphone anymore

Actually, I just found the answer to my issue in this thread: The type correct/predict function for mail and text in iOS 8.0.2 was working fine then suddenly disappeared and reverted to the old style. I've checked all settings that seemed appropriate. How do I restore? I actually liked the new version.
Which says "a thin gray bar with a white dash in the middle of it immediately above the keyboard, you can reopen the suggestions by sliding up with one finger on the white dash."
That did it.
I too have noticed a change, it seems with the new IOS update. My Predictive setting is on, but it seems before it would come up more often in predicting words and also give me a few choices. Now, it's not coming up as much and only providing one 'predictive' word which is not always right. This change is not very useful.

Select statement not working

hi to all,
I am trying to write use inner joining . here is code
DATA:tabname LIKE dd02L-tabname,
     table_disc LIKE dd02t-ddtext.
SELECT dd02ltabname dd02tddtext INTO (tabname,table_disc)
    FROM dd02l INNER JOIN dd02t on dd02ltabname = dd02ttabname
          WHERE dd02tddlanguage = 'E' AND dd02ltabclass = 'TRANSP'
                            AND dd02L~tabname = 'ZANKI*'.
    endselect.
      write : tabname.
I also checked in tables dd02t and dd02l for the table zanki* and data available in both table . but here select statement not working .do u have any idea about this. thank you

Hi,
I executed the ur inner join conditin by commenting 'z*' it's working fine.
I think where condition is not getting satisfied so u r not getting any data.
Please conform in where condition you need * 'AND'* or OR
I change decalration as below.
DATA:tabname    type TABNAME,
      table_disc type AS4TEXT.
SELECT dd02l~tabname
       dd02t~ddtext INTO (tabname, table_disc)
FROM dd02l INNER JOIN dd02t on dd02l~tabname = dd02t~tabname
WHERE dd02t~ddlanguage = 'E' AND
      dd02l~tabclass = 'TRANSP'AND
    dd02L~tabname = 'ZANKI*'.
endselect.
write : tabname.

XMLP 5.6.2 - Parameters - Both Multi-Select and All-Select Do Not Work

Both Multi-Select and All-Select Do Not Work.
What's up with this behavior?
And when might it be fixed?
BG...

The Multi-Select is now working, not sure what I did wrong earlier. However the "Can select all" option when building the parameter does not work as advertised, though I was able to get around that as well.
Create a Data Model
select LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME from SOME_TABLE where SOME_COLUMN =:SOME_VALUE
OR
select LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME from SOME_TABLE where SOME_COLUMN in (:SOME_VALUE)
Create a LOV
Name = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
Type = SQL Query
select distinct SOME_TABLE.SOME_COLUMN as SOME_COLUMN from SCHEMA.TABLE
Create a Parameter
Identifier = PARM_SOME_COLUMN
Data Type = String
Default Value = NULL
Parameter Type = Menu
Display Label = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
List Of Value = LOV_SOME_COLUMN
Option
Multiple Selection - Checked
Can select all - Checked
Refresh other parameters on change - Checked
Then test your report. Select "All" from the LOV and click view. Result - No Rows Returned.
Selecting a "Single" or "Multiple Values" values from the LOV does work.
The way I am getting around the problem is to uncheck the "Can select all" and then manually select all the values in the LOV in order to get the "All".

I have F.F 3.6 and windows 7.: 1) When i want to buy a airplane ticket and want to select 2 adults or 2 children, the draw down select, does not work in any websides,? WHY?. 2) Have FF any problems with SKYPE

I have F.F 3.6 and windows 7.: 1) When i want to buy a airplane ticket and want to select 2 adults or 2 children, the draw down select, does not work in any websides,? WHY?. 2) Have FF any problems with SKYPE
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== After innstalling windows 7

As a suggestion I'd put the Text_io segments into their own begin - exception - end sub-blocks within the main code. This way if Text_io does raise an exception you can catch it earlier as it may be able to recover - That is if it is a text_io exception.
Other than that you;ll have to step through in Debug.

SELECT * CONNECTION not work

Hi,
It is found that SELECT * does not work with CONNECTION. For example, I use the following statement to retrieve data from another system and an error states that SQL error 207 when accessing table 'MARA'. 'Invalid column name 'ANIMAL_ORIGIN''. If columns are specified, data can then be retrieved. The SAP BASIS version is 7.31.
SELECT SINGLE *
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF ls_mara
    FROM MARA
               CLIENT SPECIFIED
               CONNECTION ('G01')
WHERE MANDT = '100'.

Hi TS,
You gave the answer already, but look at the HELP:
To allow the Open SQL command to be run for the secondary database connection, the table definitions in the connection must be the same as those in the standard database.
Cheers,
Custodio

Text select tool not working properly

When I use the text select tool, it selects columns, not words in a row, which is what I want. It used to work correctly. I am using Acrobat Pro, version 9.0.0.
I tried adding the ALT key, with no good result.

Is it with this specific document o any pdf you work on?
If it was earlier working fine for you, try repairing Acrobat by going to 'Help' menu > Repair Acrobat.
Also make sure you have updated it to the latest patch.

InDesign-CC: Selection Tools Not Working

When I am moving quickly between tools and objects, all of a sudden the tool gets stuck on the hand tool and will not change or function. I have looked into multiple reasons. It is not prefs/cache or anything like that. I also thought maybe my wireless keyboard was the fault.
However, I think I have stumbled across something. Normally I have to restart to resolve the problem, however, again just now the problem happened as I had dragged about 10 images into the InDesign window as I quickly hit the keys to place in a grid. Bang, the problem occurred again. I hit the escape key in frustration. Nothing happened. As I have two monitors I clicked into a browser window to search to complain or find a solution or something as I am going mad!!!. However, after about 30 seconds, I decided to restart so I clicked back to InDesign only to discover the tool was back to normal and I could switch tools etc.
This makes me believe the problem is either with Mavericks (not convinced) or is an issue in CC that is very slow when performing other tasks like moving within a window whilst switching tools.
I have read so many posts with people saying its user error or something. Not true. I am a power user and fly around in InDesign. This is definitely a CC issue in my opinion, and to be honest, I wish I could get some kind of response from adobe.
In the meantime, patience is the only remedy, but it is slowing me down, and time is money… which I am losing.
Any one have a constructive response?@

Hi Cristoph,
You have mentioned two issues above.
The first is of the selection issue. I acknowledge that this issue is present in InDesign CC and is one that the InDesign team is investigating. It is already mentioned above that this issue is one that the ID team has been able to reproduce.
The other issue is
Another example of a CC-Bug: whenever you open InDesign, the menu-palettes (e.g. that for color-selection, text, paragraph...) are closed. So why the hell is that? If I want to change something I have to reopen the referring palette. There is no reason for this delay of the working process.
This is the issue for which i was trying to gain more information as to why you are facing this issue. I dont think this one line of information is enough to figure out why you are facing the problem. I tried this on my machine with the given information and it seems to work, upon restart of InDesign the palettes that were earlier open remain opened.
This is NOT a known issue and is one that i would like to gain more info about and it is with respect to this issue that i mentioned that you try cleaning the prefs and caches.
If you still happen to be facing the issue(after cleaning the prefs\cache) i would suggest that you report the issue via the link
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
Or you can mail the issue at [email protected]
Please note that simply writing one line in the information will not be of much help, until the ID team is able to reproduce the issue there is no point that they will be able to fix it.
Thanks

btw the ascii characters in the code are japanese characters
if youre not seeing them properly

in the code you posted there is no code for updating the

there is no 'sort' column pulled from the db or aliased by

it appears in the order by clause in the query above...

you did not post any code for the 'Sel_Plusoneflag' function
in your

and what's the actual problem you are facing? the select box
still not
working (HOW is it not working? - not displaying/displaying

Selection variable not working properly on portal

Hi,
We have a report in which Survey is a selection variable(Not a mandatory variable). If I select Two or more surveys simultaneosuly in the initial selection screen, then the Portal is not displaying the data. PFB screenshot of the selection.
If I select the same two surveys individually in the selection screen, then the portal outputs the result. If I execute without selecting any survey and then apply a filter (after the output is generated) for those two surveys together, then also the data is displayed properly.
Kindly note that this report is being used by German users and the problem exists only when the Language preferences of the portal is changed to German. With English Language Preferance, the selection variable works properly.
Please suggest if anybody has faced a similar issue
Regards,
Keerthan

Hi Lakshmi,
The texts are maintained for those survey values and even with German Language Key, still not getting the output.
If i select them individually, then I am getting the output.
For instance, I have selected the surveys "0000084001" and "0000090001" together in the selection screen(I have inserted the Pic in the original post, but i am sorry it is not clear in that) and not getting the output or it hungs up in the execution state.
If i select the same survey "0000084001" only, then I get the output.
This is the same case when I select only "0000090001".
This scenario is only with German Preferance.
If i change the preferance to English and select these two surveys together, then it outputs the result.
Regards
Keerthan

Webkit select box not working...

Hi folks,
I'm trying to create a simple select box in an air application, and while the select box is populated, it will not drop down. It just flashes and then rolls back up.
The select box on the following simple page fails:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
        <title>Untitled Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <select name="myselect" id="myselect">
            <option value="1">1</option>
            <option value="2">2</option>
            <option value="3">3</option>
        </select>
    </body>
</html>
What is the trick to getting these select boxes to work properly in webkit? I can use my arrow keys to traverse up and down the options in the select list, but that's not really good enough. I want it to work properly.
Any ideas what the heck is going on?
Thanks,
Chris

Okay, I've got an update on this problem.
Just to test this against another platform that uses the webkit engine, I tried the following code in Safari 4.0.4 for Windows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
        <title>Untitled Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <select name="myselect" id="myselect">
            <option value="1">1</option>
            <option value="2">2</option>
            <option value="3">3</option>
        </select>
    </body>
</html>
... and even though the select box isn't inside a proper form tag, the code still works just fine. In fact, I tested the following code too:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
    <head>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
        <title>Untitled Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <form name="myselect">
            <select name="myselect" id="myselect">
                <option value="1">1</option>
                <option value="2">2</option>
                <option value="3">3</option>
            </select>
        </form>
    </body>
</html>
... and this ALSO works perfectly fine.
However the same simple code fails miserably in AIR 1.5. Does anyone have a clue why that is? Again, should I upgrade to AIR 2.0 beta? A google search for problems with webkit and select boxes has returned nothing helpful. I'll check this forum again, but so far I've not gotten anything helpful here either.
Is nobody using AIR with straight HTML/JavaScript/AJAX? Is that why no one has been able to help me? Is *everybody* using Flex? I'm getting a bit frustrated at this point.
