Changing a variable length for text in Captivate 6

I'm desperate to get a text input field variable, help I need of students enter their name as they want it to appear on a certificate and I called the s_Name variable, but it does not allow more than 15 characters, does anyone know how to change this option to allow the characters more?  I use Adobe Captivate 6.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

15 characters is the default when you insert the variable in a text caption.  But you can set this to anything from 1 to about 250... so you use the icon insert Variable Properties tab > accordion Format to insert the variable.  Locate the field in the dialog box that allows you to specify the display of the variable time.

  • Format analysis of the measurement data of variable length for Newport THP/N

    I try to analyse the response of a sensor of zED-THP/N of Newport. The answer is back with ID SEQ TYPE TEMP C HUMD %.

    ID = 1, SEQ is constantly changing, TYPE = 15, temperature = nnn.n

    I am trying to capture the Temp, and this presented a challenge. (The humidity is easy, I'm reading after the C - 5 has 'C')

    The SEQ number starts as n and evolves to nnnn... so using 7x4a does not work due to the changing length of the SS.

    When I use '15' 4, because the Type is still 15, and SEQ contains a 15 in the number, which also becomes a problem.

    Everything that I have which is constant is that there are spaces between each value and the value of temperature I'm looking begins after the 3rd space.

    Any help would be great

    Great... progress is good.

    If you use the single command, tol ERDG00A return all my sensors in a given request:

    The request channel data that must be completed is channel 0. All other channels should be empty. Not \r, just empty. I should have mentioned that in the original post. Then configure the channels as before, ensure that each channel of moisture is a\r\n. The next channel group must be a\x20.

    To explain, just one tells DASYLab to find the number of variable length, and he still needs a delimiter to put end. many devices use a comma, but they use a space. The hexadecimal ASCII for space is 20, so say us DASYLab to find numbers in a string of ASCII and stop when he finds a space, using the notation of DASYLab to hexagonal \x20.  notation for the carriage return character (\r isor hex 15), and \n is the notation for the line break ( or hex 12).

    15 84 0 18.5 C 64.5%
    1 50 15 C 18.4, 64.2%
    2 214 15 18.5 C 64.7%
    3 237 15 18.3 C 64.3%

    I like the idea of a single data request command for all four channels - less necessary communication protocol. In interpreting the device number, you will be able to ensure that the analysis works correctly.

  • How to change the highlight color for text

    I am trying to select and highlight some text in the PDF file. Here is my sample code. I want to change the color of the highlighted text. Something similar to what the tool select text in acrobat.

    Hilite HiliteEntry;

    Hilite.Offset = 10;  Highlight the tenth Word

    AVDoc currentAVDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc();

    CurrentPDDoc PDDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc (currentAVDoc);

    AVPageView currentPageView = AVDocGetPageView (currentAVDoc);

    ASInt32 pageNum = AVPageViewGetPageNum (currentPageView);

    Red PDColorValueRec;

    Red.Space = PDDeviceRGB;

    Red.Value [0] = ASInt32ToFixed (1);

    Red.Value [1] = 0;

    Red.Value [2] = 0;

    Highlight

    AVPageViewSetColor (currentPageView, & red);

    PDPage pdPage = PDDocAcquirePage (currentPDDoc, pageNum);

    PDTextSelect textSelection = PDTextSelectCreateWordHilite (pdPage, & hilite, 1);

    AVPageViewDrawNow (currentPageView);

    AVDocShowSelection (currentAVDoc);

    PDPageRelease (pdPage);

    If this is not possible, at least can I change the font color or underline text?

    Appreciate any help!

    Thanks a lot for the help so far. So, I was successfully able to create a text selection highlight annotation. Here is my code, if someone else have similar questions.

    More a question. in my highlight annotation, I get two rounded half-circles to the left and the right. Don't know why?

    What version of APEX, theme and layout grid type do you use? 4.2 with a theme that does not use based on tables of HTML layout (such as the topic (25), labels is not a property of the attributes of HTML table cells .

    You must specify your APEX version in all issues and UI/theme/templates for a page layout or the question of Visual formatting.

    I am able to edit the text inside the element by changing the attributes of the element field Form HTML with the following text style = "verdana fonts: 24pt;

    Create the following style sheet on the page property CSS Inline (4.2) or the property header HTML (previous versions), replace "P1_X" with the name of your article:

    label[for="P1_X"],
    #P1_X {
      font-family: verdana, sans-serif !important;
      font-size: 2em !important;
    }
    

    If we knew what theme you were using it would be possible to eliminate the! important statements by using a more specific selector for the label.

  • Captivate 8 - cannot change the captions or contained text of the smart shapes

    I am arm wrestling with C8 after C7 update last week.  Now, on the first software Simulation, I recorded from scratch, I can choose failure of legends and the intelligent forms with text in them, but I can't edit their content.  These elements are NOT locked in the timeline panel, otherwise I would not be able to select them.  I can move them around, but they contain the auto text that Captivate put into them, and I can't change it. I can also change the shape and type of legend of failure or intelligent form. When I insert a new legend I have the same problem.


    The project has 55 slides, so it should not be because of its size.  I erased the library of unused items.

    I recorded under a new name, closed and reopened the project, closed and reopened C8 - same question. Any ideas?

    Sorry, I forgot this post from last week and published inadvertently.  I'll mark this one as replied to clean of open-ended questions.

  • Global Variable length problem

    Hi all

    I'm moving a group of a pll key values.
    I'm holding all the key values in a text field that can contain up to 10000 bytes and I'm assigning the text field values to a global variable.
    This value of the global variable is read by pll and fetch the records using these key values.

    But I'm getting ORA-06502 error. This is a question about the length of the variable.
    Form builders help I got to know that this global variable can hold only up to 5000 bytes.

    Suppose that
    New_id is a text field that has more than 7000 bytes values separated by comma

    New_id is that a text field of type char length is 10000,

    +: global .new_cust_id: = Block.new_id +;

    On this line, I get ORA-06502 error, because this value is used by other packages.

    Can someone help how do I fix this

    Use forms [32 bit] Version 11.1.1.4.0 (Production) and Oracle database 11 g R2

    Thank you
    malandain

    Citing the Globals online documentation:

    A global variable is a variable of Oracle Forms whose value is available for the triggers and the subprogrammes in any module that is active in the current session. In previous versions of Oracle Forms, a global variable stores a string of length, for all uses up to 255 bytes. In Oracle 10g form, global variables are now limited to 4000 bytes when they are set or referenced using PL/SQL bind variable notation. for other uses, no limit is imposed.

    This means: If you access the global variable like this:

    :global.variable := value;
    

    You can store up to 4000 bytes in length. If you use the copy and name_in built ins you should be able to store up to 32767 bytes in a global variable.

    see you soon

  • Problem with loading Variables from a text file

    Hello

    I'm quite a novice when it comes to scripts and I am struggling to achieve something quite simple. I want to have an external text file that will allow me to control the number of timeout that I reference in my code below. I need to be able to change this variable by editing a simple text file.

    var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(60000,1);
    

    I want to change the 60000 and 1.

    I followed what looks like a nice clean approach to this tutorial: http://www.designscripting.com/2012/01/as3-flash-loading-variables-from-a-text-file/

    However, when I'm stuck is how to reference my variable imported into the code. I tried 'name1' but it does not work. I get ' 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of a numeric type to a type unrelated string.' error '

    I see nothing wrong with what you show, and when I try I get the following output...

    The only thing I suspect for the moment is the data file itself.  I can reproduce the problem if I insert white space before this string, then make sure that the text string is not preceded by anything whatsoever.

  • Possible to change the variable cpQuizInfoPassFail through advanced actions?

    Is it possible to change the variable cpQuizInfoPassFail through advanced actions? I do not see this or the other quizzing variable when I try to create an advanced action and change by entitlement or expression. Let me explain what I want to accomplish, I ask the wrong question. I have a training project, with that I need to include a post test. I don't really like the captivate quizzes. I want the post-test to play as a ride on jeopady where the user chooses issues category and gets points if the user answers correctly. For this I must ask questions on a game board and (from what I can fig) you cannot have multiple questions on the same page. I'm building the quiz with my own custom variables and coded so that the program jumps to a page of the certificate if the user gets more than 84 points. THA all works very well. But I have to be able to tell the database that the program will connect with the user has passed the quiz. I thought I could do this if I assign the value 1 to the variable cpQuizInfoPassFail. Is there a way to do this? Thanks in advance for any help,

    Doug Jackson

    Hi Doug,.

    I don't see the version you are using. Each interactive object can be marked, has a report following properties in the control panel (if you use CP5 or CP5.5) or a tab in the Properties dialog box reports, if you use a different version. You must add a score (default value is normally 1 point) and make sure you add it to the total score.

    If you want to make me a glance, post your file on acrobat.com (free, use your Adobe ID), share and publish. You will have a link that you can copy into a private message to me.
