Set text on textinput enter event

Hi, is it possible to set the text of a textinput from the enter event?

When I run the code above, as long as I click in the TextInput control so it has focus, pressing the Enter key sets the text.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
      import mx.events.FlexEvent;
      private function handleEnter(evt:FlexEvent):void{
        evt.target.text = "You pressed the enter key";
    ]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:TextInput enter="handleEnter(event)"/>
</mx:Application>

Set text of TextInput control inside a movieclip

Hello,
I have created a movieclip object in the library which has
three TextInput components. Now I am attaching this movieclip into
another movieclip object on the frame. When i try to change the
text property of the TextInput component, it does show the text.
temp_mc=empty_mc.attachMovie("display_mc","display_mc1",1);
temp_mc.desc.text="Sdf";
However if I trace the text of the new movieclip using the
code:
trace(temp_mc.desc.text);
it shows the correct text.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Arjun

components need some time (1 ms is sufficient) to initialize.
use setTimeout to delay using your textinputs.

Different 'mouse enter' event / 'set busy' vi behaviour in LV8?

In my program, I used the mouse curcor 'set busy' vi to lock the front panel during a measurement. However, I did want the 'cancel measurement' button to be available. I solved that by adding a 'mouse enter' and 'mouse leave' event for that button, that would enable the mouse when it was over the button. (And disable when it left again)
Worked fine in LV7, but it seems that in Labview 8, this little trick doesn't work anymore...
Apparantly, now the 'mouse enter' event only fires when the cursor isn't set to 'busy'. How do I perform something similar to my old trick in Labview 8?

I too had a similar issue when upgrading my application source code from LabVIEW 7.1 to 8.0. There are a couple of things you could try.
1) Keep calling the "set cursor busy" vi, but don't disable mouse clicks (a boolean input to the set busy VI). Now add a new event to your event structure to monitor the panel for any "mouse down?" events. Whenever this event occurs, the user is trying to click somewhere, so wire a TRUE to the "Disabled?" input of the event. Now to keep your cancel button from being filtered out, add some code to determine if the x,y coordinates of the mouse down event are over your cancel button, if so then don't filter this event.
2) Keep calling the "set cursor busy" vi, but again don't disable the mouse clicks. Now whenever you want to disable all user events on your front panel controls, open a reference to each front panel control and set it to disabled (all except the cancel button of course). This sounds difficult, but it is actually really easy. There is a VI property you can read to get references to each FP control.
I personally used the 2nd option in my code to do something similar. I've attached the VI you can use to disable all you FP controls (with exceptions), and also an example of how I used it. It's a very small VI.
Hope this helps.

Enter event not triggering for read-only checkbox

I have some objects in a form that get "locked" when the user signs the form. I'm not using the digital signatures. Instead, when the user types their name into the signature text field, a script runs on the change event that makes all of the fields in the form read only. It also unlocks the fields if the signature is deleted.
I was worried that we would get a lot of phone calls with users that didn't understand that the form had locked ("Why doesn't this form work?!"), so I added some code to the enter event for all of the fields that would pop up a messagebox to explain to people trying to edit a signed form that the form was locked and that they would need to delete the signature to edit the form.
This plan works perfect for my text fields and decimal fields. It does NOT work at all for my checkboxes. For some reason, the enter event is never triggered for read-only checkboxes. I don't see any other events that would obviously work for me though. Any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks, those are reasonable suggestions.
In the first suggestion, I'm unclear about one aspect of how I would accomplish this. I assume I would allow people to modify fields in the form, but that when they did, a msgbox would pop up that would inform them that, if they continued with this modification to a signed form, the signature would be removed. I'm all good to that point. But if they answered that they do not want to continue modifying that field and removing the signature, how can I code it to set the value back to what it was before the change? Is there some method that will give me access to the value of the field BEFORE the attempted modification? I went looking for something like $.previousvalue, but found nothing.
I'd suggest that I could use a two-stage solution, in which I store the previous value on the enter event, and save it just in case they do not want to change the field when prompted by the msgbox, but since the enter event does not exist for checkboxes (my original problem), that seems like it won't work.
As far as radio button suggestion, I like radio buttons very much except for one fatal flaw: they aren't (as far as I can tell) clearable. That is a shame. Clearly some people (like me) want both exclusivity AND clearability. And we'd like the controls to have an enter event. But I know I'm demanding Anyway, as it is, I just end up having to use checkboxes and create a boatload of silly code to make them exclusive.

Hi Sheps
I'm working in SD 16:9 PAl. If you're working totally in HD and have used the correct presets, it should all be practically automatic.
You say “the proportions of the Live type picture are correct but it still does not fill the screen”. What screen? How are you viewing the problem? The canvas in LT? The canvas in FCE? External TV monitor? What version of FCE? What version of LT?
Which texture? Have you selected a PAL or HD texture? Are you shooting HD or SD? Are you trying to mix formats?
I would like to suggest a couple of things for your future (and current) posts. Add some info to your profile regarding your Mac (more detail), QT version, drives, software versions, etc. It may help us in figuring out much quicker possible solutions to your problem.
Keep trying, and post back if no success.

Wrap text for all-day events

I've seen this question floating around, unanswered, since 2005...
How can I get iCal to show the full text of an all-day event in Month View? There's lots of blank white space, but it seems that iCal never wraps the text of all-day events, and just cuts off the text that doesn't fit on one line.
Am I missing something? Is there any way to get Apple to implement something so basic?

I have the same question, but need to add one odd observation about my own experience...
When I enter new events, sometimes the text wraps to two lines and sometimes the text is cut off after one line. It appears to be about 50-50. I can find no explanation for this behavior anywhere nor any way to control it. Very strange.

Cannot enter event in iCal on iPad

Got new iPad 2
Got I cloud set up enter events on my Mac And they appear on the iPad (and phone) no worries but I cannot enter any events on the iPad
Get message "calendar not set" or "event does not belong in that event store"
Anybody got any ideas on that .....?....
Pleas e help very frustrated

I have the same issue and it just started. My Iclous , Mac and Iphone work , Ipad does not.

Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet?

Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet? I don't need the calendar grid. I just want a list of events on a particular calendar, and their dates. Is that possible?

Not easily. Two possibilities:
1) If all the events have some common feature (eg you have included "XXX" in all the summaries), search for that feature then select and copy the found items at the bottom of the window. You can then paste them into TextEdit or a spreadsheet for printing
2) You could write an Applescript to locate the events and write them into a text file for printing.
The first one will probably give you what you want.

Work with JTable cell (check input, set text color)

I have a JTable with data
The task is:
User inputs some data into cell
I want to check his input string for equatily with other values in column
For example, I have these values in column:
1.example
2.exercise
3.execute
User inputs word "execution" in the same column
until user inputs "executi" his input string should be red.
What event I have to listen to if I want to get user input string?
Also a question:
Is there any opportunity to work with cell row (copy it to another JTable) ?

i think you should use cell editor as textfield (although that is default for jtable) and then implements document listener and set text color in insert update method.
try this out :-)

Behavior: Set Text of Text Field

I have an onclick event that sets the value of a form element
to "Hi there" using the Set Text of Text Field behavior. Works
great. The reference book I have says you can also place valid
JavaScript code in the box that appears by placing it in brackets {
}. Anyone done this?
What I am trying to do is to set the value of field2 to the
value of field1 by using code like this:
{document.form1.field2.value = document.form1.field1.value}
Of course, can't get it to work

Something like this
<input type="text" name="field1"
onchange="this.form.field2.value=this.value" />
<input type="text" name="field2" />
This will update field2 to field1's value when you tab out of
the field - or
you can alter onchange to onkeyup to have field2 updated as
you type into
field1
Cheers,
Jon

Set text of layer...again

hi everybody
any ideas as to why when i use the set text of layer
behaviour i'm losing the hand cursor when you mouseover the link?
the behaviour works fine, but i'm getting the text cursor, so it
doesn't look like a link when you view the page, although it
works...i've tried changing the cursor option in the css, but that
still doesn't seem to make any difference...thanks in advance
sara

It would have nothing to do with the STOL behavior, but
rather what you are
pasting into it.
Any event handler directly on an <img> tag will fail to
produce the pointer.
You need to make sure that when applying behaviors directly
to <img> tags,
you always use the <A> onMouse event. Try that....

Set Text of Layer Question

A Very Easy Question.
I attempt to "set text of layer." I click on the plus sign on
the behaviors window, and set text to layer. A cute little box pops
up. In the Layer drop down box is a host of "unnamed
<span>"s. None of my divs are listed. In the body of this
page are Plenty of ID'd divs. I have named layers out the wazoo.
Why Are My Named Layers Not Listed In the Layer Drop Down
Box?

It would depend entirely on your level of HTML expertise.
One way to solve the problem would be to use an IFrame to
contain the
external content on the page, but a frame is a frame is a
frame. By that I
mean that IFrames usually provide all the user problems that
frames do.

Linking from one page to another is how static HTML pages
work. Having a
single page to display multiple content elements as loaded
from a database
requires that the page return to the server to fetch new
content from the
database on each click. Either method requires a page
refresh.
Linking to content that is placed within an IFrame doesn't
require this page
refresh, but carries other disadvantages as mentioned above.
Does that help at all?

How to restore image after Set Text of Container behavior

Hi there, I'm not sure how to apply the Set Text of Container behavior. Basically, when I mouse over an image, I want a larger version of the image with decription text to appear. I also want to restore the original image without text on mouse out.
I want the larger image and its text to appear in the exact location of the original image not anywhere else on the page. Here's an example what I've done to try and achieve the effect:-
1. Create a div and insert image in it.
2. Select the image and Set Text of Container behavior. Under the Set Text of Container dialog box, select the div that the image is in (e.g. div "apdiv1") and type in the New HTML - For example: <img src="largerimage.jpg"><span id="apdiv1">image description</span>
3. Set the event to mouseover
I do not know how to proceed to restore the original image without text when I mouse out. I know I’m doing something wrong to achieve this effect but I can’t figure out what it is. Your help is greatly appreciated!
