Wrong orientation of text selection cursor

I've OCR'ed a PDF document with page orienation "portrait" using Acrobat Pro XI with setting "exact image".
Unfortunately the text selection cursor has the wrong orientation, its orientation is "horizontal" but should be "vertical" as the text is written from left to right (German) in the document.
Any ideas how to change the cursor orientation?
Thanks.

I have got the same problem. Text ocr-ed with with setting "exact image", too - don't know if that matters. The problem might be indepedent from that.
The proble mist a real pain. It heavily disturbes text selection an marking.
Unfortunately I don't have a solution.

  • AS3: TextField - How do get rid of text select cursor

    SC3 - AS3
    How do we turn off the text select cursor?
    I have a button object that has dynamic text, and the hand
    cursor works fine outside of the text object but over the text
    object the cursor is changing to a text select cursor!
    I am setting selectable to false for the text field.

    Is your dynamic text field part of a button? I just created a
    test file with a dynamic text field set to not selectable and it is
    not showing the text cursor.
    Also, are you dynamically generating the text field or are
    you drawing it on the stage?

  • Can not get text selection cursor to change to column selection cursor

    Hi, Thank You for any time and help .
    I'm new to InDesign, and I'm hoping to use the new feature of moving columns / rows.
    But, I can not get the text cursor to change into the column or row selection cursor. 
    I am able to get the resize cursor, or use the ctrl+3 shortcut to select the entire column,
    but I can not get the downward pointing arrow cursor to select the column, and/or move it.
    Sometimes the row selection cursor will appear, and some rows can be moved, but I have been unable to move the columns.
    Thanks again, all my best

    Thank You Sumit !
    That does appear to work, but not in all cases?
    Example: 9/12/2014 10:44:14 AM - YouTube  <--quick vid capture of issue.
    I am able to select and move columns and rows, but columns appear to need a 'clean' column to work / move?
    Thanks again, I sincerely appreciate it!

  • Text selection (copy/paste) of text messages

    Why is there no color highlight or flash or indicator of success at all when copying text from a text message?
    Steps:
    1. Copy a text message
    2. Paste text message into text entry field
    Problems:
    1. There is no visual indicator of what text will be copied
    2. There is no visual indicator of a successful copy
    and, quite truthfully,
    3. The long-press on the gesture area is an unusual (for webOS) gesture
    Moving text between applications/areas should be identical in all applications, text fields, boxes.  
    In addition, the text-select instructions on palm.com:
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/na/pre/pre2/unlocked/solutions/article/45101_en.html#N103A8 
    do not work from the Pre 2 browser (it is not possible to select individual words in the example phrase and then grow the selection).  These instructions should be updated, or, more desirably, text selection should be standardized on an OS level.
    While this is a complaint, if anyone has any suggestions or guides I may have missed, please let me know.  Also, if I'm simply doing it wrong, I'd appreciate help, as I've now spent far more effort than a non-phone-enthusiast would to understand the copy/paste functionality of my new device.
    Post relates to: VisorPhone

    Having used the phone for a few weeks now I can say that I've gotten used to selection & cursor motion, but still have problems as there is no indicator of successful action.
    I also greatly miss the iPhone's magnifying action for cursor placement, as on my Pre 2 I have to place the cursor and then move it, because I can't see where I'm putting it initially (finger covering word).
    I'd love to hear other's thoughts/experiences w/ text selection, the cursor, and copy/paste.

  • "resolving alias to" message using aliases on 10.6.8 plus slow text-selection behavior

    Recently after no particular change to my Mac Pro3,2 running 10.6.8 other than some routine software updates, whenever I open an alias on my desktop to standard folders or files, a message shows up "Resolving alias to" whatever the alias name and there's a 2-3 second delay before the folder/file opens. I've found discussion of this issue in some archived discussions but never found a comfirmed solution described, so I'm raising this again. As in others' encounter with this behavior, the slow opening of aliases happens (1) only in my own user account, not in a guest account I set up for test purposes [I have no other user accounts than these], and (2) only happens the FIRST time I open an alias. Subsequent uses of the alias work normally.
    Another strange but possibly related behavior that began at the same time as this alias delay is harder to describe but involves a problem when selecting text using mouse clicks or even highlighting with the mouse for editing. For example, to edit the name of a file or folder on my desktop, I would normally click on the file/folder name, pause a moment and click again: this puts me in edit mode with the current file/folder name highlighted/selected. Now when I attempt this procedure, the second time I click immediately opens the file/folder, as though I had double-clicked rather than clicked+paused+clicked. The only way I can select the name of the file/folder to edit it is to click+long pause (like 3 seconds)+click. Then the text is selected as desired. It's as though the clicks are being recognized (by whatever in the OS recognizes clicks) as much faster than actually made.  There is a similar problem in any program I use that permits text editing, whether Word (Office 2011 for Mac), TextEdit, etc. I have to consciously slow down my cursor/click behavior when selecting text. If not, my actions are misinterpreted as double clicks. This text selection behavior also disappears when using a "Guest" user account, only appearing in my own user account. I Using a different mouse has no effect.
    Steps taken so far. I've Repaired Disk Permissions and Verified Disk using Disk Utility, have Safe Booted, and have turned off all login items in my user account,and recently installed the 10.6.8 supplemental update, all to no avail. Any suggestions or has anyone had and solved this/these problems?

    I think my problem has been that in Sytem Preferences>Mouse, my "Double-Click Speed" was set to the SLOWEST setting. After some experimentation, I now have the that setting two notches from the "Fast" end of the scale. In case it's important, the "Primary mouse button" in my Preferences is set to "Left".
    This not only solves the text selection issues described, but also seems to eliminate the strange "resolving alias to" problem.
    [For the curious, I have a Logitech Performance MX wireless mouse which can be configured with "Logitech Control Center". But the LCC software doesn't control double-click speed; this setting can only be made in the Mouse System Preference pane.]

  • Keyboard shortcuts for text selection not working in Flash CC

    In the new Code Editor in Flash CC running on Mac OS X, most standard Keyboard Shortcuts for traversing through the text work as expected (as the Operating System works globally) but there is one that doesn't and it's I think the most important one.
    Hitting "OPTION + SHIFT + [right or left arrow keys]" to select words doesn't work. Hitting "OPTION + [right or left arrow keys]" works as expected, moving the cursor to the next word or break point, but adding shift doesn't do the selection.
    I don't understand why this changed since it's a basic OS global shortcuts, and every other program behaves the way it should. Flash CS6 running on the same system behaves fine, but Flash CC doesn't. If you have ever written code, you know that any second that a programmers hand doesn't have to leave the keyboard to search for the mouse is invaluable, and this has forced me to stop using Flash CC and use Flash CS6 to edit my Action Script classes becuase it's unusable otherwise.
    These shortcuts are also not listed in the keyboard shortcuts for the program, so I can't change the default behavior. Does anybody know if there's a way to set it back to the way it was before, or just disable special text shortcuts so that selecting text behaves like any other application in the operating system?
    System Configuration:
    Flash CC

    Amy~ Yep the lasso tool was what I verified with another user. 'L' seems to be bound indefinitely to loop through different types of lasso tools and it was annoying them because they just wanted L to be the regular freehand lasso. I removed 'L' from being an option on the polygon lasso and even set it explicitly to SHIFT+L as well as set the lasso tool to a completely different keyboard combo. 'L' still cycled through lassos haha. It needs some fixes.
    fertolg~ At least you have a workaround for now. I'd go nuts if I couldn't use keyboard text selection writing code, oy! You're welcome and if you're all set please mark correct so we can filter unanswered. Good luck!

  • Which event dispatched after text selection done on spark text area in Apple iPad using Adobe Flex 4

    I need to know which event triggered after text selection done in Apple iPad. This way i have done in desktop air app code (mouse events)
    protected function txtEditor_mouseUpHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
                if(txtEditor.selectionAnchorPosition != txtEditor.selectionActivePosition){
                    showNoteToolBar(event);
                    txtEditor.focusEnabled = true;
                    txtEditor.setFocus();
    But in Apple iPad how to achieve through "Touch Event" ? And also i need how to hide all context menu on Spaek TextArea?. Why Touch.End event is not fired after place cursor on text area ?
    Please help me !

    Ok, so I finally got it working but this is not ideal at all. Adobe really needs to give us some direction on how to properly deal with font embedding and TLF now that the release build breaks all functionality with loading runtime fonts and TLF.
    Problem:
    I am embedding collections of fonts (faces) into single family classes. Each individual face is registered with Font.registerFont(). I need to do this because I have to have mixed fonts within text flows - at least according to Alex H's recent blog post.
    Fonts do not display in TLF without doing the following:
    1. GlobalSettings.resolveFontLookupFunction = null;
    2. editor.textFlow.flowComposer.swfContext = ISWFContext(this.getFontContext("AnyFamilyNameFromAnyFontEmbedded", false, false, FontLookup.EMBEDDED_CFF));
    3. Instead of #2, use editor.textFlow.invalidateAllFormats();
    Either #2 or #3 need to be performed. If I have a spark richEditableText control in MXML with defined familes from the loaded fonts. I even tried placing the control into a separate state so it wasn't created until after the fonts were loaded... I still needed to invalidate the formats or set the context.
    The "AnyFamilyNameFromAnyFontEmbedded" does not need to be all of the embedded family names. It only needs to be one of them. Once one is used, all embedded fonts work. Also, I have to use the internal namespace to even get access to getFontContext, another oddity that, in my humble opinion, should never be necessary to create mixed style TLF content.
    My questions are then:
    1. Why am I required to use ISWFContext if I am using Font.registerFont()?
    2. Why is GlobalSettings.resolveFontLookupFunction = null; also required for this to work?
    3. What is the recommended workflow to embed fonts from multiple SWF files into the release build and have it work without having to jump through all these hoops?

  • When mousing over text, the cursor flickers constantly (with each letter passed) from arrow to i-beam and back.  The problem occurs in both MS Word and Pages.  Any idea of how to resolve this annoying problem is appreciated.  System: 10.10.1

    The mouse is controlled by the OS so don't guess any app other than a mouse driver or OS X itself would be able to cause this sort of flicker issue.
    Have you seen the following and is it what you are seeing? Maybe you could make a movie (Quicktime is great for this this to make a screen recording) - but not sure how to attach a movie to these discussions as mine is grayed out and can't be selected (to the right of the insert image).

  • Text-selection mechanism all screwed up in KeyNote 6.2

    Trying to select text with shift + arrowkeys,  or shift + alt + arrowkeys,  is all screwed up in KeyNote 6.2 (OS X). The text selection often jumps forward in an erratic manner (much too far ahead than usual, often skips entire words).
    Trying to de-select text using the arrowkeys, also produces unexpected results. Sometimes the cursor even automagically skips ahead one character position.
    Personally, this bugs the @@@@ out of me when trying to type text. And often I even loose important parts of my texts entirely.

    Try this Keynote repair, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
    1  delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
    2  restart the Mac;   Apple menu > restart
    3  immediately after the start chime,  press the shift key until you see the Apple symbol.
             let it fully boot up,  it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4  when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive  then First Aid tab and      click  repair disc permissions
    5  when complete, restart the Mac normally
    6  install Keynote from the Mac App Store

  • Thumbnails are often the wrong orientation and distorted. What is causing this?

    Thumbnails are often the wrong orientation and distorted. When I select in viewer they are normal again.

    As if only the corrected layer would have remained on the photos.
    So the geometry of the pictures is correct - they are not skewed or something? Only the colors and intensities are wrong?
    . Only in printing when it is converted to PDF file some photos are unrecognizable.
    Is it the printed pdf or the pdf viewed on the screen? If it is the printed copy you need to fix your print settings.
    Does Aperture give a warning, that the high resolution images are not available?
    We had some cases of books not being able to be printed, and that was due to a broken reference to the original files. Only the book could not access the originals, all other parts of Aperture could. To check for this, try to add one more adjustment to one of the images in question. Is it possible? Are the edits reflected correctly in the pdf of the book?
    We were shooting with 3 cameras, Lumix5 shooting RAW, Cannon 100 shooting JPEG and SONY alfa850 shooting RAW.
    Have you tried to reprocess the raw of the edited images? (Photos > Reprocess Raw)
    Also try, to remove one of the images from the book and to add it again. That usually helps, if Aperture has lost the connection to the originals used in the book.
    If you no have done so already, repair (and if necessary rebuild) the Aperture library.

  • Keyboard-driven text-selection faulty

    G’day
    I thought I raised this before, but cannot find reference to it either here or in the bug tracker.  Sorry if I’m repeating myself.
    Often I’ll find myself towards the end of a line of code, and wanting to select everything back to an earlier point (to lowercase it, or whatever).  I do this by pressing CTRL-SHIFT-LEFT_ARROW, holding my finger down as it selects word-by-word back to where I want selected (if that makes sense).
    What I’m finding is that fairly often CFB will actually cancel what I have selected, and start selecting again from the current cursor position.  So I’ll only end up with the second half of what I was intending to highlight actually selected.
    Initially I put this down to a flaky keyboard, but I’ve now experienced it on three computers, and also I don’t have it happening in any other application.  So it’s fairly certain it’s a bug in CFB.
    Another twist on this is that I have just noticed that I am also getting it when using CTRL-SHIFT-UP_ARROW to select blocks of text vertically.
    It’s a minor thing, but it’s pretty annoying.
    Anyone else notice this?

  • CWNumEdit initial text selection state

    Any ideas on what can cause a CWNumEdit to have a blinking cursor instead of a complete text highlight upon receiving focus?
    Typically when I press tab to change the focus to a CWNumEdit control, the entire text of the control is selected.
    However, some instances of the CWNumEdit have a blinking cursor immediately after receiving focus instead of having all text selected. If I tab off and back on again, it now selects everything.
    I haven't keyed in on what I'm am doing differently with these misbehaving instances of the CWNumEdit. I am changing the RangeChecking properties, setting value, and changing the formatstring.

    It shouldn't do this when tabbing through the controls. When a numedit gets the focus from a left-click from the user though, then it will position the cursor in the number if the user clicked somewhere on the actual value to allow editing of the existing number. Are you seeing this in tabbing?
    If you are getting this from left-clicking the mouse, you can get past this by putting a CWNumEdit.SetFocus() call in the Click() event handler for the numedit control.

  • R : Fetch Cursor - Select Cursor

    Scenario I
    - use an OPEN Cursor, Fetch Cursor and specify the MAXROWS parameter as
    200, FORTE returns me only 1 row.About Scenario I: you MUST surround your open-fetch-close cursor cycle by a
    begin transaction - end transaction statement.
    That is, your code should appear as follows:
    begin transaction
    open cursor...
    fetch cursor...
    do what you want...
    close cursor...
    end transaction.
    Hope this helps.

    I had this problem and solved it by wrapping the OPEN, FETCH, & CLOSE

    the dialog duration for the dbSession object you are using.
