Android, StageText and the soft keyboard

How to keep the soft keyboard opened? I have a simple text form (1 text field as StageText, 1 button and a scrolling area, similar to sms chat application).
Click on the button or on the scrolling area causes a focus lost in StageText instance and the soft keybord closing (it causes app resize and other problems).
I tried various variants with assignFocus() function, using events SOFT_KEYBOARD_DEACTIVATE, FOCUS_OUT, MOUSE_DOWN.
Also, I tried to call assignFocus() with pause and several times during some period, I tried to move focus to other field and so on...
It was working partially if I created enterFrame event with assignFocus(), but it makes soft keyboard buttons to work very slow and soft keyboard closes when I remove enterFrame event.
This problem is for Android only, iOS version works just fine with MOUSE_DOWN -> assignFocus().
I'm using Flash CS 5.5 and CS 6, AIR 3.2 and AIR 3.3 beta and HTC Sensation with Android 2.3.5 for tests.
Also, I found that SoftKeyboardType.PUNCTUATION is not working with Android soft keyboard.

There are definitely some bugs with Android/textfields/softkeyboard.... there's an already existing bug I'm trying to get people to vote for in regards to textfields on Android. Hopefully once (if ever) they fix this bug, other bugs related to it will go away as well.

How to open the numeric keyboard in a mobile Flash Builder 4.5 app

I would like to open the numeric keyboard in a mobile Flash Builder 4.5 app when click on a text field instead of the full keyboard. Is this possible?

It looks like this is implemented in Flashbuilder 4.6 through the softKeyboardType command:
<s:TextInput softKeyboardType="number" />
Here's a link to good article on it:http://devgirl.org/2011/11/29/flex-mobile-development-flex-4-6-cool-new-soft-keyboard-feat ures-sample-w-source/

Using the soft front panel to take a differential measurement.

I have a PXI- 5152 digitizer and need to use the soft front panel to take a differential measurement. I found how to do this by programmatically, but cannot figure out how to do this on the soft front panel. Can anyone help?

Hi Towleb1,
From you second sentence in your question I assume you already found this resource, but just in case I wanted to provide you with a white paper called Differential Measurements Using High-Speed Digitizers. This is a fantastic resource that includes flowcharts and instructions for hardware self-calibration, probe compensation, gain and offset calibration, and actually taking the differential measurement itself.
As far as taking a differential measurement with the NI SCOPE Soft Front Panel, are you talking about taking a single differential measurement or are you talking about taking a differential measurement between two channels on the PXI-5152?
You mentioned that you found how to do this programmatically, but is there a reason you specifically want to use the NI SCOPE Soft Front Panel instead of LabVIEW?

Why does the soft keyboard pop up on my screen and how do I stop it?

Older MacBook Pro running Lion.
For reasons I don't understand, when I start typing after not using my MacBook Pro for several minutes, a soft representation of the keyboard pops up on the screen. I kill it and it goes away. But then appears again later.
I switch between the MacBook's keyboard and a USB keyboard -- in case that is related.
How can I get this to stop happening?

After some trial and error (which I could not do over the weekend) it appear that the thing appears the first time I use either keyboard after using the other. Example:
Use the native keyboard, all is ok
Use the USB keyboard, get the popup
Use the USB keyboard again later, all ok
Use the native keyboard next, get the pop up
This is a recent change. I have been using two keyboards like this for years. It didn't even start after my upgrade to Lion. I can't put my finger on what was going on when it started. If I could, I could probably figure out the cause. But I can't.
I just want it to stop.

IBook G4 "K" Keyboard Key dosen't work without using the "Shift" keyboard key.

Some reason, now my iBook G4's "K" keyboard key won't work inless if i use the "Shift" keyboard key.
Help!

When you press it, what speaks and what does it say?
Mine does not do that. Not on my portables nor desktop
Macs. So I wonder what else may be happening.
When did your iBook start doing this? Are there any
other applications open that may have a keyboard
shortcut? The System Preferences> keyboard> may
show a few things that can be set, options. Also see
if there isn't something set in Universal Access. A few
of the preference settings in universal access can be
engaged by just a few keys, and can be shut off there.
{Check into Voice Over Utility, as there is a pile of stuff
in there, which could allow sounds when keyboarding
and capitals can activate. Only if it's been set.}
And the Speech system preference panel can allow
a key to be set for several functions. Mine do not
have any assigned, and by default none should be.
Good luck & happy computing!

Capture an image using the web camera from a web application

Hi All,
Could anyone please share the steps what have to be followed for capture an image using the web camera from a web application.
I have a similar requirement like this,
1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)
2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.
3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.
Please share the details like, what can be used and how it can be used etc...
Thanks,
Suman

1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)There's not really any good way to do this with JMF. You'd have to somehow create a JMF web-start application that will install the native JMF binaries, and then kick off the capture device scanning code from the application, and then scan through the list of devices found to get the MediaLocator of the web cam.
2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.You'd probably be displaying a "preview" window and then you'd just want to capture the image. There are a handful of ways you could capture the image, but it really depends on your situation.
3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.You can find out how to do this on google.
All things told, this application is probably more suited to be a FMJ (Freedom for Media in Java) application than a JMF application. JMF relies on native code to capture from the web cams, whereas FMJ does not.
Alternately, you might want to look into Adobe Flex for this particular application.

HT201178 How do I use the wireless keyboard to edit my iPhone contacts?

How do I use the wireless keyboard to edit my iPhone contacts?

Type in the field for first name, last name etc. When you're ready to go to the next field, hit enter/return.

I've connected my macbook pro (os 10.6.8) to an external display, but it will not go into clam shell mode! When I close the lid the laptop goes to sleep, and I am unable to wake it using the external keyboard or mouse.

A rundown of what I've tried:
Adjusting energy settings to try to prevent sleep
Pluging the USB keyboard and wacom tablet directly into the laptop (as opposed to a usb hub)
My laptop's power cable is connected
My display (a Vizio TV) is recognized in the System Preferences panel
I'd been using this TV for about a year with my older Macbook Pro (OS 10.5.8), though using a different wireless keyboard and mouse
***Update: The issue seems to lie with the keyboard and wacom tablet. I am trying to use a wireless Case Logic keyboard (with dongal) and wired wacom tablet to wake the Macbook Pro in clamshell mode. To experiment, I tried using my Logitech wireless keyboard & mouse set (also dongal) that I had been using before and it wakes the computer without any problems! However, I really need to be able to use my wacom tablet. If I switch to the tablet after waking the computer using the Logitech keyboard & mouse it works, but once the computer sleeps it won't work anymore. I could keep switching back and forth I suppose, but it's sort of a pain. There has to be an easier way! Any ideas why the wired wacom tablet is unable to wake the computer in clamshell mode?
Thanks!

So your keyboard or mouse won't wake the Mac when you close the lid correct? Try resetting the SMC and pram
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Recently I was abroad and tried to contact my voicemail to check my messages. I was asked to enter a password and did not know how to use the letters below the figures on the keyboard. I had to give up and wait until I was back in my country (no password is then needed).

Is it possible to use the JS coding in webdynpro java application!!!

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to use the JS coding in webdynpro java application by any means?
If yes, kindly suggest the procedure or any pointers for the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm not an expert in this matter, but I will post here what I know:
In NW7 releases (at least 7.01.05) it is possible to run JS, also to capture any WD Event and run your own JS code after that, using IFRAME. I have jQuery running here, it would take some time till you create a "framework" to enable some easy usage. I just want to highlight that is possible, thou I think it's a lot of effort.
Not sure about CE7.1 it seems iFrame is deprecated. Still, being deprecated should not "block" the usage, thou it's not recommended since this functionality can be removed in next releases.
I've read that CE7.2 has JS support, and I think you should try having a word with Armin maybe..
Hope it helps,
Daniel

Using the JMS API in Java EE Applications

Hello to all,
this is some sort of theoretical question.
I been reading the JMS documentation for a while.
1.I could not understand what this statement means :
>
This section describes the ways in which using the JMS API in enterprise bean applications or web applications differs from using it in application clients.
2. What is the difference to use the JMS in java EE web orEJB container and application client ?
Thanks.

What a developer is allowed to do is different depending on whether they are writing code to run in a container or not. The container already provides lots of services so some code you would write for outside a container is not needed when you write for a container. There are APIs that you are not allowed for in container code if you want to adhere to the spec.

Thanks.Read more of that document to find out the differences. Application components in Web/EJBs must not create more than one active session per connection while application clients are allowed to do so.

Sending a text using the Spanish Keyboard

When I send a message to some one in Spanish using the Spanish keyboard, they cannot read it because it shows as a bunch of squares and symbols. They are using an Envy touch to see my messages. Can some one help me? Is anyone having the same problem? Thank you!
