Text box in work item

Hi,
I need to add a text box in a work-item (decision step) where the user could enter any text he wants, then click on a button, let's say OK, and that text will appear in the next work item sent to another user.
I need this text box only for the first user who receives the work-item, so the second work-items will be a different one, but will include the text eneterd by the first user.
Hope you have any solution.
Thanks!
Matias.

HI,
Are you using secondary methods?
Here in your scenario, using secondary methods would not be appropriate as it becomes difficult to send data back to workflow container from secondary methods, as in your case you have to write text and then use it in next step
So you can do it in this way:
1. Create a decision step , lets sat with option 'Approve' and 'reject' with option Advance with dialogue checked.
2. In the outcome of 'Reject' button, create an activity step that calls your method of the class that has FM.
Make task as general and keep the expression blank.
Test your workflow, it should work.

Timing of text box will not appear. My text boxes stop working on slide 5 and they will not work for the remainder of the slide show.

Timing of text box not working. I get the first few slides to work and then on slide 5 my text boxes will not appear. And they do not appear for the rest of the slide show. Help anyone.

Text caption is timed to appear at 2 seconds, but you have a click box at 0sec. Its duration is very short, which means that I cannot see if there is a pause. I suspect this click box is pausing at the end of its timeline, which is at 0.3secs and the Text caption at 2 seconds will not appear before the user has clicked on that click box. The timeline is the core of Captivate, learn at least how to read it.
Tiny Timeline Tidbits - Captivate blog
If you want the green text caption 'Click on...' to appear right at the beginning of the slide, you have to check its Timing accordion: set it to start at 0 secs instead of 2 secs and extend its duration to the 'rest of the slide'.
I don't know what is in the Group. That group and the HIghlight box will disappear at 3 seconds. Or maybe the action that is triggered by the Clickbox is different from 'Continue'?

Getting Keynote's "Defining Default Attributes of Text Boxes" to work

The following is from the iWorks09 Keynote "Help" for the topic "Defining Default Attributes of Text Boxes and Shapes":
4. Do one of the following:
To make the text box the default for only the current master slide, choose Format > Advanced > “Define Text for Current Master.”
To make the text box the default for all master slides in the current theme, choose Format > Advanced > “Define Text for All Masters.”
I tried doing everything up to this point, but when I select "Format > Advanced" there is NO OPTION (not even unselectable "faded") for > “Define Text for All Masters.” There is only a an option for "Charts" & it is unselectable (there should be options for text, shapes, charts, etc.)
Can anyone help me?
If not, this is definitely a *+_major bug_+* that needs to be fixed!!

What do you mean when you say that the Lock commands don't work? Are they grayed-out, or is that once you use them you don't like the result? If the option is grayed-out, you either don't have an object selected, or the selected object is formatted as Inline. Changing the format to Floating will bring back the Lock option.

IMovie is not letting me drag and drop transitions, music, text boxes. Worked fine all along and now nothing. What happened?

iMovie has always let me "drag and drop" transitions, music, text boxes etc into my Project. This morning it is not allowing me to "drag and drop" anything. This is for a client and I am so frustrated. What happened to make it stop letting me "drag and drop"?

I have only dragged Titles to the project. When I did, it worked best not to drag and release onto the video strip (like with the old version) but just above the strip. When you drag and hover above the strip you get a little pointer to the starting point on the strip. Hope this helps.

Is it possible to activate a hyperlink in a text box, so that the hyperlink then works when the iBook is used on an iPad?

I can't create a hyperlink in a text box that works in pre-view on the iPad. Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks, Bob

when I add another text box within the text place holder in order to create a picture frame
You can add a frame image itself - no need to use text box... but if you must.. you are better using Shapes as image placeholders. Conversly - you can add text to Shapes!
Text boxes and shapes are treated differently by the Inspector when opting to use in a way that Apple did not think you would do!
Hyperlinks are best made in its own text box and nothing else added. make another text box.. input content and align to choice, remember ARRANGE move to front pust one text box above the other and allows you to juggle placing your content on the page.

Can't disable a hyperlink in a text box

Hi
I'm having trouble with Pages '06 and how it handles text that looks like a URL. I'm putting together an ad that has a text box with some text like www.domain.com. I've selected the text and de-selected the 'Enable as Hyperlink' option as I don't want the link line to appear under the text in the printed page.
My problem is that the change doesn't 'stick'. When I de-select the option, the text colour changes to black and the link line disapears. As soon as I click out of the text box, it reverts back to a hyperlink complete with blue colour and underlining.
If I place text directly onto the page - not in a text box - it works as expected.
I've tried this in Pages '05 and it works as expected. I've deleted the prefs files... any suggestions?
Thanks!
James

The setting is now in the 'Auto correction' pane... and yes - it solves the problem! Thanks for that!!! Now I can manually set the link detection. Looks like someone got the 'AutoDetection' routines a bit messed up...
Thankyou for the suggestion!!!

Work item could not be accepted

Hello,
I have created a simple Workflow in a 4.6C system. The first step is a User Decision step, with two possible decisions. When I assigned standard user decision task TS00008267, it works fine when I test the workflow. But since I want a custom text in the Work Item description, I have copied this task into a custom one, with the same options and everything.
Now, when I test the workflow, the Work Item is generated, but I can't see it in my Business Workplace.
I can see it using SWI1, in status Ready. If I display it and try to execute the activity, I get the message :
Work item could not be accepted (->function canceled)
Without any long text. I have searched everywhere for this, and cannot find why it does that.
Does anyone have an idea ?
Thanks in advance.
Thomas

HI,
Open your task. In that go to Additional Data --> Agent Assignment --> Maintain. Select the task. Then click on attributes & select general task there.
Save and try testing your workflow again.
Hope it works.

Why I don't succeed to create two connected text boxes?

In iBooks Author I tried to create a text box connected to another pre-existent text box in the same page. First I clicked the text box, then I selected Format > text box but the option "add linked text box" was unselectable!
(in this image the text is in italian :S)

The first text box needs to be made into a hyperlink before you can select it from the second one.

Translation of Task and Work item description

Hi Guys,
I'm facing the problem, that some customer specific texts like Work item text and task decriptions are not displyed in the proper language. Currently we have implemeted a new language in SRM. Since we have some customer specific texts in some work item texts (redefined text) and some customer specific task decriptions I translated these text manually. Therefore all translations are available, but the customer specific texts are not displayed in the application. Always English task descriptions and work item texts are displayed instead of Portuguese. For the standard texts Portuguese is displayed. Did I miss anything during translation?
Any help is appreciated!
Rgds.
Dieter

Hello,
Maybe you should try translating in SE63. Did you try this?

Dynamic action on text box change does not working

i have a page with following components.
a report that has and edit link.
a text box to catch the primary key from report link when it is clicked
a number of elements (text boxes, check boxes and LOVs) which are used as data entry form.
Now my design is that user enter values save them and no sooner did they save, the report depicts new
values. if user want to edit any record, they click on edit link and the data entry form elements
should now bring all those values from DB on page. i m successful to pick primary key and bring
it in a hidden text box and wrote a dynamic action on its change event that will bring values from
DB and set all page elements. but but but.........the change event doesnt work. it only work
when focus is lost from the text box...!! offcourse user wont want to click in that "hiddent" text
box and then click some where else to bring values in page data entry form......
help is humbly requested from forum or if any other solution approach is to be used easier than
one i m using, would be appreciated.
thanks in advance for reading my bore question :)

bundles of thanks for reply. i m going to elaborate.
1. My page no is 3.
2. Hidden Item name is P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID
3. Data entry form, hidden item and the report are on the same page.
4. on the edit link of report, i have used following settings.
    Target: Page in this application
     Page: 3
     and i set hidden item as follows......
     Item 1   P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID         Value #ACTIVITY_ID#
   well, when i click the link on report it does bring Activity_Id in the hidden box (which is not yet hidden for debugging purpose)
Next i wrote Dynamic action which fires on the change event of P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID and run PL/SQL code with in it which is as follows
declare
Dept varchar(50);
begin
   select my_dept into Dept from activity_main ACTIVITY_ID = :P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID;
   :P3_Dept := :Dept;          (i did use :P3_Dept := Dept also but this wont work)
insert into testdynamic (stamp) values (Dept); (I did this to check whether correct value is brought from DB, yes it works correctly, correct Dept is being inserted in stamp column)
end;
i have created another true action to check when the dynamic action is fired. its very simple alert. and the problem is, it only fires when focus is lost from the P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID. i mean, when u keep changing value inside the text box, nothing happens, when u go outside, the alert is fired and so the pl/sql procedure. but the line
    :P3_Dept := :Dept;       OR      :P3_Dept := Dept;         arent working which is the actual requirement.
I m not using set value here as i have to set a lot of values on page not one. further. plz let me get rid of this lost focus thing as i want the form to be populated with correct values related to P3_EDIT_ACTIVITY_ID as the user click on any edit_link in the report.
Thanks for persistence. i hope i have provided all the details.
looking forward.

How do I drag an image or text box to the "workspace" off of my working file but where I can still see the image and text box for future use?
When I drag the item off of the trifold that I am creating, it just disappears but I still want to use it. I just need to move it out of the way to modify other portions of the document.
thanks,

Add another page below the current one to use as a storage area. You can't use the grey area around the page for storing items you want to use later.

How to Create application express items like text box dynamically

Hi all,
I have a requirement in that i have to create a template like the one in Application express for creating the region and items.
The main requirement is to reduce the amount of time spend in creating the items on htmldb page..
So we are planning of creating a template where the developer at one shot will be able to define all the items used in the the page..So this reduce the amount of time taken in creating and defining each and every item .
Developer use this template which conisist of some 100 text box which act as label for the item which we want to create on the page and there will be check box which show all the item available in htmldb like textbox, check box, select list etc. So developer will check the item he/she want to create and and set properties of it .So this is the single process for creating all the template on the page.
Ones the template is submitted it will create the items on the page ...in a single click..
Please do reply me with ur comments
Thanks

Hi,
I wanted to do similar thing as well. I wanted to add a text field when user clicks a link or button. I was thinking about java script, but not sure how to add the text field items from outside the wizrdy things in APEX!! Possibly using the htmldb_item api, but have not worked out how yet.

How to pop-up a text box for a grid item on a user defined table?

Hello,
I have a user defined table with a grid & one of the columns is for comments. What I'm trying to do is to pop up a text box when double clicking in the column field. This would be the same as the Item Details column in the Sales Order ittems grid.

Captivate 4 AS2 Text Entry Box not working with Flash Player 11

I am having issues with text entry boxes not working at all in flash 11. I am using Captivate 4 and exporting an AS2 swf. When you get to the slide you can type but you cannot see anything nor does the button or keystroke to move on. Also there is no cursor. Any ideas?

You said it is not working with Flash 11, so does that mean you tested with previous version and that worked?
While publishing choose Flash player as 9 and publish that, verify if that plays in a compatible web browser.
AS 2 is a legacy scripting, it has been said not too be supported with even Flash Player 10 --
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/help.html?content=Part2_AS2_LangRef_1.html
I believe if you switch back to version 9 while publish your project, it should work.
Thanks,
