Tab Key in Word not indenting lists!?

So, all of a sudden when I create a list in Word the Tab key and the Shift + Tab key combo no longer indent/dedent items in a list.
I've tried:
- Both of the "Full Keyboard Access" modes in Keyboard and Mouse. Not like this should effect what goes on in Word, but gave it a shot.
- Resetting the PRAM (doing command + option + p + r)
Note This works normally in other accounts on the system. Only on my account is the tab key behaving this way.
Anything else I should attempt?

you cannot do that in ABAP...
you have to set your fields on screen according to the sequence

Pressing tab key within table not scrolling to next input field

Hi All,
I have a table with editable and read only fields. I have more than 20 columns. When the tab Key is pressed it scrolls only to the editable fields that are in the visible screen. It does not scroll the table to the right to the next input field.
However if I change the screen size so that the scroll bar is required for the browser then it will scroll across moving the browser scroll bar, moving the cursor to the input field that was not visible. Again it does not go further moving the scroll bar within the table to the next editable field to the right.
The table has been set to scrollable with the scrollable column count set to 8.
We are using explorer 8 on 7.01
Is it possible to have the tab key move from input field to input field scrolling the table to the next input field if it is not visible yet?
Thanks
Bruce

What you describe sounds like the correct functionality. If you set a scrollable column count, only the visble rows are actually rendered on the client side. When you use the horizontal scroll bar, you are triggering a server side event to retrive the next set of visible columns. Therefore the browser doesn't actually know anything about non-visible columns and hence the tab can't go to them.
When you increase the number of visible columns (or don't set anything for visible column) you render al the columns on the client side and use the browser scrolling. Therefore the tab works.

MS Word not in list of supported formats to combine into single PDF

Just upgraded to Acrobat X, Windows 7, and Office 10. Selected Combine Files into PDF, then Add Filesin order to combine Word & Excel files into single PDF, which I've done many times and is my main use for AA. AA didn't recognize any Word files (either 2003 or 2010), and no Word file formats are listed in "All Supported Formats" drop down list. What's up?

Thanks so much. I'll check this out.

Problem with Tab-button in Word 2011

I recently bought a new Macbook Air with Mountain Lion and Office 2011 for Mac, and I'm really unhappy. Nothing is the way it should be. Everything has been "upgraded" and changed for the worse.
For instance, in Word 2011 I can't select an entire paragraph and indent it by just pressing the Tab-key. Pressing the Tab-key makes the paragraph disappear. I also can't un-indent a line by pressing the backspace-key, like I used to be able to.
Why am I not allowed to do this anymore, and how can I get it back?
Thank you.

It used to be possible in Word 2003 for Mac.
However, I found the solution to this myself right now. In order to indent an entire paragraph, you indent the second line of a paragraph, using the Tab-key. This will indent the entire thing. A stupid, silly thing to change, but at least this works.

Tab keys and access keys

I filled in the required info for dynamic textboxes in the
accessibility panel but the tab keys still do not work in the exe
file. Flash CS3.
Any clues?
Thanks.

I'm want to change my forms resource file to map a key for next tab and previous tab:
eg, for Alt+C to exit a form the entry is:
67 : 8 : "Alt+C" : 32 : "Exit"
Where 32 is the Forms Function Number.
Does anyone know what the forms function numbers for next / previous tab are?
Many Thanks,

Disable Alt+F4, Alt+Tab key press

Hi Guys, my WPF launched with maximized mode & i must restrict the users for the items:
'Alt + F4': Not to use 'Alt + F4' to close the application
'Alt + Tab': Not to switch to another application in the system, so i want to disable 'Alt + tab' key-press.
Note: I couldn't find any solution specifically for 'Alt + tab' key-press.
Thank you

Disabling ALT + F4 can be done by adding an event handler for the window's KeyDown event:
public Window1()
InitializeComponent();
this.KeyDown += Window1_KeyDown;
void Window1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
if (e.Key == Key.System && e.SystemKey == Key.F4)
e.Handled = true;
>>I couldn't find any solution specifically for 'Alt + tab' key-press.
The ALT + Tab keyboard stroke is handled at system level so you will need to hook into the Windows API to get access to the keyboard and intercept these calls somehow. Please refer to my example of how to use a low-level keyboard hook in WPF in the following
thread for more information:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/cbb5d6ea-432d-42b5-a6e1-814cda9db030/registerhotkey-for-capslock-doesnt-work-in-laptops-keyboard?forum=wpf. There is probably no easy (or easier) way of doing this.
Here is an article that may also be helpful for you:

Not able to use the Tab key to Tab indent when within a text edit window...

Two questions please... First one is above for the tab function. In Safari I just need to press control+option+tab to indent a tab within a text edit box on a website. This function is being used more via cloud and mobile capability.
Second... I can, in Safari, Copy and paste a site with tables. Works great in Safari. When I try to do this in FF I lose the formatting of the tables and it just give plain text without the tabled fields.
I would love to use FF because the compatibility if much greater than Safari, but... I need my functionality as well to do my work to the best and quickest ability.
Thank you

Help About says I'm on 20.0.1
Up until last week, I was able to use the tab key when typing emails and other multi-line text boxes.
Suddenly the behavior of the tab key changed. This isn't the first time. It's been quite a while ago that the function of the tab key changed from indenting to moving around the page, then after some time it changed back to indenting.
Can we get this fixed and leave it alone, please?
I may give one of those add-ins a try, but my problem with add-ins is that they break when FF is patched or upgraded, then I'm left with out the solution they provide.
Can we just fix Firefox, please?
Thanks,
Frank
P.S. Another potential fix I came across suggested starting FF in safe mode to see if the problem goes away. It does not. It seems to be a change to FF that appeared after an update last week. On or just befor 24 Apr.

Using the tab key in a list and keeping a table format when copying and pas

when I transfer a table from a microsoft word document or PDF file to the pages document, it does not keep the table and only the data inside the table. how do I keep the table?
Also, how do I keep the numbers from indenting when I do a list. for example, if I need to indent part of the sentence for writing specifications of something, I want to use the tab key to move away from the first part of the sentence, but it moves everything and not just my marker.

Not if it decides the list is a list, it can't.
The app never "decide that a list is alist". It does what you ask it to do.
Of course, if you refuse to disable the preference which automatically treats a paragraph as a new list entry I can't help you.
If the datas are stored as a list, the bullets are not part of the datas themselves so they will not be copied.
As I already responded the "Copy" tool doesn't copy attributes.
We have to choose:
we are using lists and the bullets can't be copied
or
we are using text arranged in columns and, if we put bullets, these bullets may be copied.
It's not me which wrote:
+In Textedit, it's very easy:+
+Tab, Bullet, First Column, Tab (or Tab x2 to get everything aligned), Second Column, etc.+
To do the same thing in Pages
Bullet, Tab, First Column, Tab (or Tab x2 to get everything aligned), Second Column, etc.
It's what was displayed in my screenshot and really I don't see what is more complicated.

MS Word not listed in Acrobat 9 supported file type (Windows 7 64 + Office 2007)

Installation details:
Windows 7 64bit O/S
MS Office 2007
Acrobat 9 Professional
When attempting to create a PDF from multiple files or combine multiple files into one PDF (single or package/portfollio) Microsoft Word is not listed in the supported file type drop down menu. This means when I navigate to a folder containing *.doc files I cannot see them. I tried adding *.doc files via drag and drop but Acrobat listed red exclamation marks stating it could not convert that file type. MS Excel, Powerpoint and Publisher appear in the supported file type list.
I believe this may be a Windows 7 compatibility issue as the same problem occured when using Acrobat 8 Standard prior to installing Acrobat 9 Professional. MS Word files are supported when both Acrobat 8 & 9 are installed on a Windows XP system.
I can create a PDF of individual MS Word documents using the acrobat tab inside MS Word itself.
I have thousands of Word files I need to combine into PDF portfollios (packages in Acrobat 8 I believe).
My great appreciation if you can provide any help.
Regards
Sunny

OK. Then do you mean the thumbnails in Windows Explorer? I don't have a solution for that, but there have been several posts about the issue.
Well, thumbnails in Explorer don't work either, but we're not concerned about it. The preview pane is what we're worried about. There is a button in the top-right that turns the pane on. Previewing in Outlook does not work either.

Tab key does not work

This is very strange, please read.
My tab key does not work. It will not move from one text field to another.
I have checked my keyboard settings. "Full keyboard access:" is at the default "Text boxes and lists only".
I have deleted this user and recreated the user, and with the completely new user the tab key does not work. Other users on the machine it DOES work.
This is happening now on 3 of our 5 machines.
Lastly, when I turn on the keyboard viewer (International/Input Menu/Keyboard viewer: it shows you what key the system thinks you are pressing when you press a key on the keyboard), it shows that when I press the tab key, the Command key is being held down instead. It's not showing that the tab key is being pressed.
Has anyone seen this previously? Again, it's happening on 3 of our 5 machines (some users the tab key works, some users it doesn't). These are fresh user creations (no special software installed, no prefs changed, etc...)
Thank you for any info!!!

Tab key to indent

Is it possible to make the Tab key indent in a text box, instead of moving to the next item.
I was thinking it would be possible using a customer format script or a custome keystroke script.
Thanks for any help.

No, it's not possible. The tab key is reserved for moving from field to
field.

ItemFocusOut not catching "TAB" key in Datagrid edited cell?

In DataGrid, "keyUp" can catch "TAB" key when it is pressed,
but the Keyboard event has less information needed. I tried
itemFocusOut, but it seems DataGridEvent would not catch it. Any
tips on how to make "TAB" key generate DataGridEvent or similar
event?
Platforms with this issue: WIN-XP/JDK-1.6/Air-1.5/FLEX
SDK-3.2
Thanks!
-Herbert

Let me rephrase like this:
In our application, a DataGrid’s edited cell has
“itemEditEnd” and “itemEditBeginning”
handlers defined. However when a “TAB” key is pressed
to navigate from one editable cell to another editable cell, none
of the above handlers can catch this special key stroke event.
Our intention is to make “TAB” key to emit an
event that can be caught by above handlers. Or, in other words, we
would like make “TAB” key to be similar(in the sense of
generating events) to that of “Enter” key when pressed.

Tab key is not working on my macbook pro on any app including the key combos. It has snow leopard.

Hi All,
I have a macbook pro with snow leopard on it. The tab key is not working now suddenly. It doesn't work on any browser or applications like word or excel. The key combos with Tab also doesn't work.
Thanks,
Daniel.

I noticed the same problem started a few days ago on mac pro with logic fcp keyboard but caps lock also stopped working. I cleaned under and around the tab and caps lock keys thoroughly but no dice. If I change usb ports the keyboard is plugged into caps lock lights up briefly and if I tweak keyboard setting tabs to force it to re-recognise the keyboard the tab and caps lock functions work while I have the keyboard system panel open and attempting to "identify keyboard" but back to not functioning when I close it. There have been a few postings about this problem but haven't come across the solution yet. Any ideas...

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.

Firefox 3.6.11 does not respond on mouse, only Tab key and space bar

HW: Lenovo R61i.
OS: MS Win-XP PRO, ver 20002, SP3
Internet Explorer is diabled in:
Contol Panal|add/remove programs|add/remove windows components
All other programs responds om USB mouse or the little joy-stick between G, H and B-keys.
Removed FF, booted and reinstalled FF 3.6.11.
Mouse works a couple of cliks - then Tab key and Space bar is the only tool.
By the way - living in Norway, means No version og FF :)

Getting very tired of this problem which is becoming much more frequent. I love the FF browser, but lately after I have been on line for a while, the browser stops responding to mouse clicks and I have to use the task manager to shut the program down and then reopen it to get it to work. From what I've been reading in the forums, this is not an uncommon problem. I've done all the recommended fixes and nothing works. Please fix this!!
