Why Do Questions never get exact answers????

I find that the answers to questions here are so vague. Anyone agree? No wonder why software companies want staff with good communication skills.
I asked 2 questions and wanted exact answers not "click on this link" or 2 or 3 words that put me in the general direction. I've already spent hours researching the problem so I've got a pretty good idea what to do

"Give someone a fish and they eat for a day. Teach someone to fish and they eat for life"
My answers are based on the context of the question. And frankly your questions have not been very clear and we have had to guess what you are asking.
That is why many of answer include a link to a section in the tutorial. The hope is that you actually read the applicable section and then remember to use the tutorial as a reference "before" asking further questions on other topics.
We are not here to do your homework for you. We are here to provide guidance and point you in the right direction.
The more effort you put into a question that shows that you've done some basic problem solving on your own, the better the information you will get in your answer.
In one of your questions you where asked to provide a small demo program and your response was:
"i'm using the built in form editor so its not really that small but here is a snippet:"
This is exactly my point. If you are not will to take 5 minutes to create a simple demo program showing what you are attempting to do then don't expect us to provide working code either. If you truly understand your problem then a demo program can be created in 20-30 lines of code.
If you need further help then you need to create a [url http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
And don't forget to use the [url http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting]Code Formatting Tags so the code retains its original formatting.
Also, remember, you get what you pay for.

  • Why do I never get an answer to any questions asked on this forum for years now? Why does Firefox Feedback not work? Why does Firefox Suggestion system not work? Why have I switched to Google Chrome (I can answer that last one).

    I keep asking questions about problems and see them posted in the "support" forum and usually with a note about how many other users have this problem. There are never any answers or replies even though some of the number for others with the problem are huge.
    As I say, I have only one answer to many questions, my last one, which is why have I switched to Google Chrome. I know the answer to that one.

    I so agree with what you say and am in exactly the same position - very sad. Was strong supporter of FF but will have to move elsewhere for my browser after many years with FF

  • I'm trying to use global keys hooking but why it's never get to the events ?

    I created a new class and added this:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Windows.Forms;
    namespace Capture
    class Hook_Keys
    globalKeyboardHook gkh = new globalKeyboardHook();
    public bool onoff = false;
    public Hook_Keys()
    gkh.HookedKeys.Add(Keys.A);
    gkh.HookedKeys.Add(Keys.B);
    gkh.KeyUp += new KeyEventHandler(gkh_KeyUp);
    gkh.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(gkh_KeyDown);
    void gkh_KeyUp(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    onoff = true;
    e.Handled = true;
    void gkh_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    onoff = false;
    e.Handled = true;
    Then in another class top i added:
    Hook_Keys hookeys = new Hook_Keys();
    And then using it like this:
    if (hookeys.onoff == true)
    font.DrawText(null, String.Format("{0:N0} fps", this.FPS.GetFPS()), 5, 5, SharpDX.Color.Red);
    string timeRunning = FramesPerSecond.RunTime.ToString();
    font.DrawText(null, String.Format("{0:N0} time running ", timeRunning), 5, 30, SharpDX.Color.Red);
    But when i click on A or B i used a breakpoint it's never get in to the events gkh_KeyUp and gkh_KeyDown 
    I used a breakpoint and it does doing the constructor the public Hook_Keys() part.
    But never get to the events.
    I took the code from here:
    Global Key Hook
    What i want to do is either clicking on A or B one of them will change the bool variable to true and the other key to false.

    Try to add the below in your form constructor:
    public Form1()
    InitializeComponent();
    KeyPreview = true;

  • Why TextFrames does not get exactly specified size?

    Hi, I'm experiencing the following problem:
    when I create some TextFrames and specify size using this code below:
    Illustrator.CharacterStyle curStyle = curDok.CharacterStyles.Add("ColorText" + text.Id.ToString());
    charAttr.Size = Convert.ToInt32(text.Size * 2.5F);
    charAttr.TextFont = newFont;
    curTextFrame.Contents ="SOME TEXT";
    curTextFrame.Top = 200;
    curTextFrame.Left = 200;
    curTextFrame.Height = 1000;
    curTextFrame.Width = 2000;
    curStyle.ApplyTo(curTextFrame.TextRange, false);
    I get different TextFrames size, when I save image into some file format(I've tried .eps and pdf). For example, if I specife 2000 width of th frame and create few frames with different text, they all get different sizes, some of them becomes 2300 width, etc. Is this some type of scaling, or what?
    P.S. If you have some code(in any language), that creates TextFrames, and they get exactly specified size, please, post it here. Thank you.

    If you don't need to be able to edit the text here is some code that should work. Worked for me using CS2 and Visual C# 2008.
    Illustrator.Application ai = new Illustrator.Application();
    Illustrator.Document doc = ai.Documents.Add(AiDocumentColorSpace.aiDocumentCMYKColor, 100, 100);
    Illustrator.CharacterStyle curStyle = doc.CharacterStyles.Add("ColorText");
    Illustrator.TextFont textFont = ai.TextFonts["Arial-Black"];
    int textSize = 20;
    curStyle.CharacterAttributes.Size = Convert.ToInt32(textSize);
    curStyle.CharacterAttributes.TextFont = textFont;
    Illustrator.TextFrame curTextFrame = doc.TextFrames.Add();
    curTextFrame.Contents = "SOME TEXT";
    curStyle.ApplyTo(curTextFrame.TextRange, false);
    Illustrator.GroupItem textGroup = curTextFrame.CreateOutline();
    textGroup.Top = 200;
    textGroup.Left = 200;
    textGroup.Height = 1000;
    textGroup.Width = 2000;
    Hope this helps.

  • Trying to make a purchase form the apple store and I keep being asked to answer my security questions. I don't remember what the answers are. Is there a way to reset your security questions or get the answers to the current ones?

  • Why can't i get an answer?

    I posted a few days ago under heading  ' fascia'.
    it was a simple question, but not one expert has been able to give me an answer. I'm sure it will only take someone a minute of their time. Perhaps now someone please....................
    Post relates to: Treo 680 (Unlocked GSM)

    I have an idea or two why you received no replies:
    1. Perhaps if you gave your original post a title that made sense?  I've read several definitions of the word "fascia", and none seem to apply to a cell phone.
    2. This is a peer-to-peer forum, aka "Users helping Users".  There are pitifully few real helpers here.  Most folks just "hit and run", meaning they ask a question then leave, never returning to "pay it forward" and help others...      
    No response usually means "we don't know the answer".   
    3. Also, here's a hint - Demanding an immediate answer usually is counter-productive.   Sometimes patience is required!  With the huge amount of questions asked here, it can take time to get to each one.
    Now, with all that said, I'll head over to your original post and see if I can come up with a suggestion.

  • HOW  DO YOU GET TO ASK A QUESTION AND GET AN ANSWER ABOUT ADOBE

    HOW DO YOU GET ANSWER ABOUT ADOBE
    MESSING WITH EVERY THING I TRY AND DO ON MY COMPUTER IS THERE AWAY TO SET IT SO IT WILL NOT MESS WITH EVERYTHING I DO ?
    [edited by forum host - you have violated the Community Guidelines on acceptable language]

    Well, the first thing to bear in mind that we are all just folk like you who use Adobe products. And we choose to share our time here helping people.
    So, you need to be
    1. Informative. What EXACTLY happens. Give details, exact messages, screen shots, whatever.
    2. Polite. Because if we don't take to you we just won't help. You should understand that posting in all caps is considered rude, like going into a store SHOUTING. Unlike the store staff we don't have to deal with you, we can just ignore you. I know you explained why you use caps in another message, but seriously, it really hinders your chances of getting help. No wonder you find it FRUSTRATING.

  • Why do I not get any answers?

    Hi all,
    Please advice me how should I ask questions in order to get answers fast? I do give points to everybody...
    Thanks,
    Charles.

    Hello Charles
    Although they can be found at the beginning of every ABAP forum apparently very few people take care of the advice given by Marilyn Pratt, Craig Cmehil and Gali Kling Schneider:
    Welcome and Rules of Engagement
    /thread/235444 [original link is broken]
    my first thought was: A question concerning the right use of the salesorder BAPIs. Obviously, the header is missing (at least for me) an important detail: the topic is about <b>IDocs</b>.
    Furthermore, do we know on which <u>SAP release</u> (4.6c or ECC 6.0 ???) are you working? I am not sure if we can conclude this from the IDoc type ORDCHG.
    Apparently, you are working on a standard SAP R/3 system (but: does it exclude other system types???).
    I believe the more careful you name your subject and the more specific you are about the (system) context of the question the more likely you will attract those of us who are willing and capable to answer your questions.
    Regards

  • Typical! You never get an answer!

    One would think since Verizon does depend on customers for their existence you might be able to get a simple answer even though you know it will be negative input from them. Even very long term customers such as myself are still treated like "unwanted step children!"

    So he's expecting a quick answer on a week-end? Not to mention this is CUSTOMER to CUSTOMER forum not customer service. if one wants customers service they should be contacting customer service.

  • Overpaying for full version when only need Photographers version? Never get response from Adobe

    Paying for full version since it started - every month I ask why I'm overpaying as only use Lightroom and Photoshop - never get an answer.
    How can you communicate with Adobe?

    Hi RoyMorris
    Contact options are available here: Contact Customer Care
    We can cancel your existing plan and then you can sign up for the Creative Cloud Photography Plan if that is better suited to your needs.
    Let me know if you want me to process the cancellation - you will still have full access until 24th September and can then sign up for the new plan.
    Kind regards

    We wouldn't know that. They could be in your Junk email box, or the Rescue email address that you have on your account may not be what you think it is. Just FYI - the Rescue email (where that email would be sent to) is not the same as your Primary Apple ID email.

    If you log into your account via http://appleid.apple.com, and select the Password and Security section on the left-hand side of that page are you able to set them ?
    If not, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
    If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
    If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
    If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
    If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
