Tabbing through fields skips time

As I enter new events on my calendar I usually tab from field to field but about 90% of the time iCal will skip over the time and go from the 'all-day' checkbox directly to am or pm. Is there a way to force it to go to the time so that I don't have to go back and click on it?

Mac users, go to your System Pref. go to your keyboard settings. click on keyboard shortcuts. OS X 10.6
At the bottom you have the choice; text boxes and lists only, or all controls.

  • "Text Boxes" (comments) in my form are included in "tabbing" through fields while filling in a form

    I have included several text boxes (not text fields) in my form. They are adjacent to the fields that are being filled in and serve various comment functions that I do not want in the printed form at the end.
    If the user "tabs" through the fields to enter data in the next field the 'text boxes' (comments) are included in the tab stops... I can not see where to turn that off. I want the tab order key to ignore the comment fields - the text boxes. They are not even listed in the tab order menu.
    Also - is there a way a field that shows up multiple times in a form (duplicate field) can be skipped by the tabbing through IF it aleady has data in it?

    I'm not aware of any app that will translate the form fields from Word to the iPad. My guess is that you're going to have to recreate the forms on the iPad.  The best app that I've found for doing this is FormConnect http://http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/formconnect/id432653695?mt=8&ls=1. It's a very simple app for creating check boxes and text fields.

  • How do I fix tabbing through fields flow in order?

    In my form, I have mutliple text field boxes.  Sometimes, when I tab through the fields, one is skipped (not in sequence).  How do I fix that so the tabs flow in order?  For example, when I ask for:
    City:
    State:
    Zip:
    instead of going in order, the tab will go to:
    City:
    Zip:
    State:

    In the Heirarchy palette, if you change the Tab order No for one field, then rest of the form tab order wil lbe reset. This is a common functionality.
    When you go to View menu -> Show Tab Order, it will open up a splash screen with the simple instructions on setting the tab order.
    You can select the field in the Tab order palette on the left and drag it UP/ DOWN as needed to move it in the correct order.
    Thanks

  • Xcelsius 2008 Tabbing Through Fields

    I am looking for a way to make my PDF Xcelsius 2008 Dashboards 508 compliant by using the keyboard to be able to tab through and select fields.  Is this possible and, if so, how?  Also, how would I select the tab order of the input fields?  Thank you.

    Ah! Huge mistake on my part. I got excited at seeing my problem that I missed the "PDF" part of the original description (ours is a swf file posted online) and it seems our company upgraded to Dashboard Design 6.0.0.0 without my awareness.
    I've created a new discussion for my particular issue here: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3269033
    My apologies for the confusion.

  • Tabbing through fields when composing message

    When composing a message,I usually enter the recipient, tab to the CC field, then tab to the Subject field, then tab to the body of the message. Now when I hit Tab after the Subject, it highlights the three pull-down menus below, "Customize," "Account" and "Signature." It's a pain — I just want to Tab directly to the body of the email and start typing!
    I looked through Mail prefs, but can't find anything to change this behavior.
    Mail version 2.1.3, OS 10.4.11

    I don't know why the behavior would change. Open the Keyboard and Mouse preferences, click on the Keyboard Shortcuts tab and scroll down to the "Move between controls ...." entry. Be sure it is checked ON. You can then use the indicated shortcut to alter behavior and see if that fixes your problem.

  • Tabbing through fields

    Does anyone know how to keep the cursor in a field until data is entered in it? I have 4 forms attached to this one form, so I cannot use the form level "Defer Required Enforcement" option. Using this option will not allow me to exit the form until the required fields are entered. I want the user to be able to exit to a lookup table but when they are doing data entry, I don't want them to pass the required fields. HELP!

  • Cannot tab through fields in a VBean

    Hello,
    We have a VBean, basically a Java Applet which has sucessfully been integrated into our forms environment.
    Unfortunately tabbing in the browser only moves the focus between the Oracle Forms fields and at no point can the use tab into the VBean.
    This is somewhat counter intuitive if the a control in the VBean already has the focus.
    Is there a way to make the tab order work correctly within the VBean ?
    thanks
    David

    Key Events
    Keystrokes from form items and bean area items in a Forms applet should produce consistent results. By default, Ctrl+K invokes the runtime Keys help screen for the form item that has focus. Tab moves the input focus from the current to the next form item. Shift+PageDown moves the input focus to the first form item in the next block. By default, however, keystrokes on bean area items do not produce these results.
    To maintain consistent input focus and keystroke navigation in a Forms applet that contains a bean area, send most keystrokes from a bean area to the server using the KeyListener, KEY_EVENT registered property, and the mHandler.setProperty(KEY_EVENT, e) method. The server then performs the appropriate action. For example, pressing Ctrl+K causes the server to display the runtime Keys help screen for the bean area that has focus and pressing Shift+PageDown causes the server to move the focus to the first form item in the next block.
    In some bean area keyboard navigation, however, it is important to not send certain keystrokes—some instances of Tab and Shift+Tab—to the server, depending on the position of the component in the bean area. The general rule is to send all bean area keystrokes to the server that should move the focus from the bean area. For keystrokes that move the focus between components in the same bean area, for example, Tab and Shift+Tab, do not send the keystrokes to the server.
    Sending Tab and Shift+Tab keystrokes from a bean area component to the server causes the server to move the focus from the bean area to the next or previous form item respectively. With this in mind, there are situations where Tab and Shift+Tab keystrokes should be sent to the server: for the first component in a bean area, send Shift+Tab to the server, and for the last component in a bean area, send Tab to the server.
    It is the responsibility of the developer to program what keystrokes are sent and what keystrokes are not sent to the server for components in a bean area.

  • Issue tabbing through form fields on Adobe Reader 9.2

    Hello everyone.  I am having an issue that I am hoping someone can assist me with.  We are currently using IE6 and Reader 5.5 in our production environment and we are currently testing IE8 and Adobe Reader 9.2 for deployment.  Our company uses a web portal where we have many pdf forms that open within a web browser. The problem we are experiencing is that when tabbing through fields on the pdf, the cursor will eventually cycle down to the end of the form and then start cycling through to the top of the browser (toolbars, address bar, search bar,etc) before finally returning to the pdf document's fields.  Is there either a setting in the reader or maybe even IE which controls this functionality and will limit the tabbing to only the pdf form?  Or does anyone know of a method of limiting the tabbing functionality to only work within the pdf document itself when opened within a browser?
    Any help on this is greatly appreciated.  I have looked through all the reader preferences and do not see anything directly related to this.  Thank you very much in advance.

    I guess by QTP you mean HP Functional Testing 11. This is really something to take up with HP, it's the job of monitor software not to crash.

  • Date field automatcailly changing when tabbing through other scripted fields

    I have a form with a datetime field. The object is readonly. I format the field with javascript as yyyymmddhhmmss as a tracking number for the form. When tabbing through other fields with javascript the value changes to the current date time, like the code is being executed each time a scripted field is entered.
    Any ideas how to prevent that? I just want the code to execute when the form is opened.
    ----- form1.sbfDirect_Pay.dteCurrentDate::ready:layout - (JavaScript, client) ----------------------
    // Current Date in short-style date format.
    // $.rawValue = num2date(date(), DateFmt(1, "))
    var varCurrentTime = new Date();
    var varYear = varCurrentTime.getFullYear();
    var varMonth = varCurrentTime.getMonth() + 1;
    var varDay = varCurrentTime.getDate();
    var varHour = varCurrentTime.getHours();
    var varMin = varCurrentTime.getMinutes();
    var varSec = varCurrentTime.getSeconds();
    if(varMonth<10) varMonth = "0" + varMonth;
    if(varDay<10) varDay = "0" + varDay;
    if(varHour<10) varHour = "0" + varHour;
    if(varMin<10) varMin = "0" + varMin;
    if(varSec<10) varSec = "0" + varSec;
    // $.rawValue = year + "" + month + "" + day + "" + hour + "" + min + "" + sec;
    dteCurrentDate.rawValue = varYear + "" + varMonth + "" + varDay + "" + varHour + "" + varMin + "" + varSec;

    I think I just answered my own question. The code was in the layout:ready event. This area is executed each time the layout is modified. I moved the code to form:ready event.

  • HT1725 When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?

    When I download a song from iTunes into my library, it often says it has downloaded, charges me for it, and on the song in my library shows the full playing time. However, when I play the song, at around halfway through it skips to the next song?
    i'm just wondering:
    a) why it does this
    and b) how to stop it doing this, because it still charges me for the song :/

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Tabbing through form fields in app doesn't work in Firefox.

    Is there a setting in Firefox that permits tabbing through form fields so that one doesn't have to use the mouse? This works fine in IE. for the same app without any configuration, but not in Firefox.

    Are you really still running Firefox 3.6? Since it hasn't received any security updates for nine months, you may be putting yourself at risk.
    In my experience, tabbing through forms works just fine. Have you tested in Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether the problem is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] by holding the Shift key when you double-click the program icon.
    In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
    If tabbing works correctly, this points to an add-on or custom setting as the most likely cause of the problem.

  • Tabbing through a form with multiple pages!!!!! FIX!!

    Hi everyone, I have a fix for this tricky issue of tabbing through a form that has multiple pages.
    1. You'll need to go to the "master page" and add as many pages as you have "body pages".
    2. Click the Object Veiw Tab and set the Occurence of the page to Max 1 and click the box with the instruction Include In Page Numbering.
    3. Do this for each page of the form that you have.
    4. The tabbing now should move from the 1st to 2nd to however many pages you have Master and Body Pages for.
    Glad I could figure this out! Goodluck!

    Thanks for the reply. Since my post to this topic I discovered some things about tabbing. With out adding another master page but just keeping the one and making sure that it's occurance is set to a minimum of one and including master page in the numbering it will work as long as the order of fields in the hierarchy tab matches the order in the position of the fields.
    I have a subForm that has a row of fields starting with a button then several text fields. I couldn't tab to the next page because the button was at the bottom of the hierarchy and it wasn't until I moved it to the top that I could finally tab to the next field on the next page. I also discovered that with a one page dynamic interactive form that has some expand able text fields in it and when the field expands so that any fields are pushed to a new second page tabbing seems to not work. In other words when I tab out of that field that is suppose to expand and a new page is added to the form the tabbing quits and in order for it to resume I have to click in a field and from then on it work even if it gets to where a third page and so forth is added. It is just when a one page (in my case) form turns into multiple pages for the first time.
    Hope that makes sense.

  • Help creating time worked field on time sheet.

    I am new to acrobat. I am creating a time sheet submittable form. I have start time fields and end time fields and now i need a field that  calculates total time worked in hours. I could do this using military time except that in the calculations tab in field properties there is no subtraction calculaton option, just addition. Is there anyway to acomplish this by writing a script? I know nothing abiut writing scripts, PLEASE HELP.

    You need to use JavaScript to write the custom JavaScript Code. You can convert the time string to a JS data object and do the math at milliseconds.
    You can split the time string into hours and minutes, convert the hours to minutes and add to the minutes, do the math in minutes and finally convert the minutes back into hours and minutes.
    Since you will be repeating the math for each day, I would look at creating a function to convert the time string cell to minutes for the computation.
    There can be problems with leading zeros and no separator symbols since the Number format strips the leading zeros from number character strings.
    function Time2Min(cTime){
    var min = 0
    var hr = 0
    cTime = cTime.toLowerCase();
    // civilian time
    if (/(\d{0,2})[:](\d{2})[ ]?([ap])/.test(cTime)) {
       hr =  Number(RegExp.$1);
       if (RegExp.$3 == "p") {
          hr += 12;
       min = (60 * hr) + Number(RegExp.$2);
       } // end civilian time
    // 24 hour time
    if (/(\d{0,2})[:](\d{2})/.test(cTime)) {
       min = (60 * Number(RegExp.$1)) + Number(RegExp.$2);
       } // end 24hour time
    // military time
    if (/(\d{0,2})(\d{2})/.test(cTime)) {
       min = (60 * Number(RegExp.$1)) + Number(RegExp.$2);
       } // end military time
    return min;
    } // end function
    function Min2HH:MM (nMinutes) {
    return util.printf("%,1 01.0f" + ":" + "%,1 02.0f", Math.floor(nMinutes / 60), Math.floor(nMinutes % 60));
    var elapsed = 0;
    var sEnd = "1600"; // change for field value as string
    var sStart = "0900" // change for field value as string
    // add loop to go through fields:
    if (sEnd != "" & sStart !="") {
    elapsed += (Time2Min(sEnd)  - Time2Min(sStart)) ;
    // end of loop
    // format the output
    Min2HH:MM(elapsed);

  • Tabbing through a PDF

    Hello,
    I have a PDF fillable form completed with many fields. Right now when I tab between fields it doesn't move from one field to the field right next to it. Instead, it jumps from one field to another a few rows down and then sort of all over the place. How do I set it so that it tabs from one field to the one next to it?
    Thank you.

    The tabbing order also seems to have something to do with how the fields are positioned on the page and how sub forms are used. Most of the time I don't have to set the tab order manually as long as I build the form right. I tend to rely on the use of sub forms. I have found that for instance in a row of field that run horizontally on the page with a some check boxes and/or radio buttons interspersed in that row that if those checkboxes or radio buttons are positioned below the text fields that when tabbing those fields are skipped till the end of the row and then I come back to them. I only experienced that when I first started working with Designer.
