Determine if an element has the focus

• Is there a way to make it clear which window has the focus on a multi-monitor Windows system?

  If there is nothing that makes me want to pick up my computer and throw it out the window, sound when a window that I just didn't have the focus starts to respond to commands, I type in another window I had focus; only to find out that I made a mistake. Yes, finally I'm the one to blame. I get that. But man, when I do something like watch a video of Pluralsight on a monitor, and I try to duplicate the code in Visual Studio on another monitor and find that instead I issue commands to control video Pluralsight, that really frustrates me! And unfortunately I too often do, so my reason to post this question.

  Thus it is possible, some settings I can do in Windows, so that when any window had the focus more visually obvious sound? Of course, I still want to be able to read another window on the same screen or on another monitor, but I just want to be able to see, at a glance, that for example the browser with Pluralsight video controller window now has the focus, not my instance of Visual Studio. Something like the title of windows is perhaps more "BOLD", or a different color or anything to make it obvious.

• Assignment of an element of the application when an element loses focus

  I'm trying to implement this feature in my APEX application:
  When the user enters a value in a text element loses focus, a RadioGroup on the form should be greyed out.
  But the problem is that I need to access the value of the RadioGroup so that the code which is then executed to work properly, but that the value is therefore more accessible if the RadioGroup is disabled.
  So I thought that if I put the value of the Radio group in an application-level element before I turn it off, the code can access the value.
  But how can I do this? It must arrive at the point where a value is entered in the text element and the focus is lost.
  But, as far as I know, the only thing I can implement at this time there is an onblur statement that calls a Javascript function.
  And I don't think I can assign a value to a javascript application-level item, can I?
  Bottom line: I need a way of executing the command
  : F100_Category: =: P1_Category (where P1_Category is the RadioGroup) - what it does to a place in time.
  Any ideas?

  'FALSE' must be all lowercase as 'false '. Without the quotes are necessary

• FTP has the syndrome of 'follow the pot '.

  I know it sounds strange, but on my mac FTP transfer unless I look at it, so to speak.

  I start a ftp download, it starts to go. As long as my ftp client is the focus of the window, it passes very well.

  Then I slide on to a new space and start browsing the web. When I slide back 5 minutes later to check on the progress, the download is "blocked". As soon as my ftp client has the focus of the window once again, the client reconnects to the server and resume the download.

  In this case each. unique. time. It's frustrating, because I can not observe the behavior. Downloads are perfectly fine if the window has focus.

  I tried Yummy, Transmit, CyberDuck, all exhibit the same behavior, believe it or not, so I guess that OSX is to blame. The network does not know that I went to spaces or apps, so it cannot be ISP or server related.

  I don't know even where to start with this one. Is there any function in El Capitan, which would suspend a ftp session once the customer loses focus of the window?

  It is probably 'an app package' in action...  OS X El Capitan: Nap App

  There is an easy way to disable this behavior by app: method to properly disable App Nap for specific Applications

  But not all applications show this option by CBS. For those who are not I have found this solution, but have not tried myself: https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/comments/3xnaqi/disabling_app_nap_for_specific_apps _on_el_capitan /

• Tab behavior of the focus in the search of selected text

  In versions previous to Firefox, when I selected some text on a Web page, right click on the text for the menu popup and click on the option 'Search' (search Google for "my text selection") tab that currently has the focus would stay focused and a new tab would be launched to manage appropriate search in the background. Since I updated to Firefox 13, the new tab now receives focus when I do a search on the selected text.

  How can I switch to the old behavior? This change in functionality is driving me crazy. When you read a Web page, I often like to select words and phrases I need to learn more and search Google or Wikipedia via the context menu. I almost always like to finish reading the current page before going off to read the new tabs. Even if I did intend to stop reading the current page, and go to the new tab, there are often several seconds to ensure that the new tab to load and I prefer to keep the page being read and manually switch the new tab that watching a blank tab while I wait for it to load.

  In the "Tabs" window tab options, there is a check box for "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately." Is there something like that for the new tabs launched by a search from context menu?

  Thank you!

  Hey bob, you can enter Subject: config in the address bar of firefox, confirm notification of information (where it appears), search for the preference named browser.search.context.loadInBackground & switch true by double-clicking it. that should bring back the old behavior...

  Override the following methods in your class to screen according to your needs

  1. when the screen button to the stack

  Call

  onDisplay() or

  onUiEngineAttached(boolean attached) - so attached is true then your screen is at the top of the screen

  2. When you are in a backlight and the lcd screen turns off to your state of rest and turns on again when you actively use this form

  call

  onVisibilityChange(boolean visible) - if visible is set to true, then you get the focus when the lcd display turns

  3. when your application moves to the background by clicking the red end button (i.e. without quiting the app, yet yours is active in the background)

  call

  onExposed() - when your application comes to the foreground of the background or during any type of screen that is in the top get popped

  OK, I was kind of what went wrong here.

  The snap has been loaded from a powershell module. When the module is removed and added again, the snap ceases to function, but also can not be added again.

  If the snap is loaded first outside the module everything works fine until you try never to remove or add snap-in module.

• PowerCLI - an element with the same key has already been added ERROR

  Hello

  I opened a case with VMware on a problem using PowerCLI. And pretty well, they said that they do not support scripts... But the error is not related to any script. It is related to the first command I run against one of our Vcenter and we have 6 of them.

  Everything worked well until we went from 4.1 to 5.1

  I can connect to our VCenter fine, but the first command always give an error and fail to the powercli but the task still occur in vCenter.

  When it gets ugly, is we have several powershell script to maintain and automate our environment but now these script fail.

  Example, we have a script to deploy the VM model and then configure the appropriate hardware configuration and add Notes and custom attributes. But the script fails after that deployment so the rest will not run. It will be possible that deploy us to the first virtual machine.

  So for 'Band-aid' question, I added a line to my script to start a virtual dummy machine, to make sure that what is in the script will work fine.

  Error:

  PowerCLI C:\Program Files\VMware\Infrastructure\vSphere PowerCLI > start-vm vm - Server-m46

  As far as I know, done to the PowerCLI VMware supports.

  I don't think they support the client script debugging, but the product PowerCLI itself is supported.

  I created a few calls myself in the past.

  What you see is a known problem, there are a few discussions in this community who has something similar.

  When I restarted the command in the same pssession and then it is executed without error.

  Has anyone seen this behavior before?

  This could be a bug?

  I searched for this error, but this seems like something very generic...

  Thanks in advance!

  Hi Filip,

  This looks like the same problem as already reported in first New - VM: an element with the same key has already been added.

• First New - VM: an element with the same key has already been added.

  
  I get a strange error that I have seen a few other posts, but with no resolution (or at least one that I can find).  When you try to create a new virtual machine using the cmdlet New - VM, I get the error "an item with the same key has already been added."

  Now, here's the key that I've not seen many others to mention.  This ONLY happens on the first attempt for each new connection with Connect-VIServer.  I can create as many of the same machines that I want after that first mistake with the same settings (new name of course).  If I disconnect and reconnect again, the error appears for the first time.

  Normally with PowerShell, I have just to catch the error and be on my way.  However, in this case I use the parameter - RunAsync, so that I can capture the task that is returned in a variable.  From there, I use Wait-task until the virtual machine is complete before moving on with the script.  Everything works fine when the error occurs, but when it happens that the object of the task is not returned and the rest of her vomit script errors.

  I am running the latest version of PowerCLI and I tried this on PowerShell v2.0 and v3.0 and get the same results.  I tried different models and guests without success.  I also tried this with and without assistance - AllLinked on Connect-VIServer-bound mode.  I should mention that I am cloning model, by specifying a spec customization and host cluster data store.  Again, the only common denominator repeatable here is that this ONLY happens on the first attempt to use New - VM session to vCenter.

  Any ideas or suggestions?

  If this is useful at all, here are the details of the output on the exception:

  I was informed that this is actually a "known" bug and a fix has already been planned for the release of the future code.  After getting the access to a beta version, it does not seem to be fixed in the next release.

  I recently bought 13 elements for Mac OS and can not download N - OS and can not download files NEF RAW taken on my Nikon d5500 has been added. The model is not among those supported by the elements, but the D5300 is, which is almost identical. Is there a quick fix?

  What is N - OS?

  For the problem of camera raw, every new device has its own raw format, and ACR must be updated to include the latter. Happened yet for the d5500 has been added, so you'll just have to use the Nikon software until Adobe gets the info and releases an updated version of ACR. It is not uncommon to be in your situation, if you buy a camera model that was only a month. You just wait a bit.
