Highlight all the text in Textarea

Hi guys

I have several text boxes in a VBox called documentContainer. Now, what I want to do, is when a user presses the button 'a', the text all textareas is selected. I managed to make it work partially because it will select all the text in the current text box, but it will not select the text in the other textareas. Code below:

if(event.keyCode == 65) {
     for(var i:uint=0; i<documentContainer.numChildren; i++) {
           var taTextSelection:TextArea = documentContainer.getChildAt(i) as TextArea;
           taTextSelection.setSelection(0, taTextSelection.length);
     }
}

I think that's how it's done:

var myString:String = "test string";
System.setClipboard (myString);

You will not be able to read the Clipboard once defined in Flex though. You can in the AIR. Here's another one I found on a blog:



http://www.Adobe.com/2006/mxml '.
Layout = "vertical".
verticalAlign = "middle".
backgroundColor = "white" >


        Import mx.controls.Alert;

private void button_click (): void {}
System.setClipboard (richTextEditor.text);
Alert.Show ("Done");
}
]]>
   


       
label = "copy the text to the Clipboard.
toolTip = "Click here to copy the contents of the RichTextEditor control to the operating system Clipboard."
Click = "Button_Click (); "/ >
   


Text = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog."
Width = '100% '.
Height = "100%" / >

  • Select all the text in the control with AS3

    Does anyone know how to select all the text in a text control (text, textarea, etc.) with AS3?

    Thank you.

    Answered my own question.

    Set the properties selectionBeginIndex and selectionEndIndex of text controls.

    For example, this selects all the text in a text box:
    yourTextArea.selectionBeginIndex = 0;
    yourTextArea.selectionEndIndex = yourTextArea.text.length;

  • All the text unreadable when I start Firefox

    When I restart my system Windows 7 and you run Firefox for the first time of the day, all the text is unreadable, as if all the letters of the words are compressed into a single space. This includes the tab names and text Web site. I think the screenshot that explains it better. When I quit firefox and run it again, the problem disappeared.

    Generally, we associate these problems of rendering with hardware acceleration.

    It can also be a problem with certain fonts that resolve to a reason any after a reboot.

    You can do a test of fonts to see if you can identify the corrupted fonts.

  • All the text displays too large, Ctrl + 0 does not

    Enabled Firefox this afternoon to find all the text made too big by about 30%. Icons in the bookmarks bar and the tabs are too big, as well. If I press on Ctrl + - twice, then it seems normal, but Ctrl + 0 returned any abnormally high. Gmail in particular seems wrong no matter what I put the zoom, as if the user interface is too large, but the text is too small.

    I don't know what is happening. Several reboots of Firefox has not helped. Disabling each addon and plugin did not help.

    Can you use Ctrl ++ (zoom full page) to increase the size on Gmail? I'm sure that at least a few sites you will need to do this, depending on the size of pixel of your screen.

  • My errased sticker product key and I can't read all the text to reactivate my windows visa. What should I do now?

    My errased sticker product key and I can't read all the text to reactivate my windows visa. What should I do now?

    Hello

    You mean the sticker on the case of the Vista operating system pre-installed from Dell, HP, Acer, Toshiba, etc.) ?

    If you do, you can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.

    See you soon.

  • How to select all the text with QNX TextInput

    With QNX TextInput, is there a way to select all the text? Spark TextInput a selectAll() method to select all text, but I do not see a similar method in QNX TextInput. No idea how you can choose all the texts with QNX TextInput. Thank you.

    Hey French,.

    Thanks for the clarification! I think I can help you. Here is a code example to show my explanation. In the code below when a user clicks the LabelButton object it will assign the focus to your TextInput object and then select all the text in this object. The only downside is that it will not bring the keyboard. so far, we are not successfully by invoking the keyboard without the user clicking on the TextInput. in any case in the code below, we use TextInput property the textField object as a reference to the TextField object internal. from there, we use the setSelection() method to select the text inside the object from the start to the end position pos. Here's the same code:

    package
    {
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.display.StageAlign;
        import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
        import flash.events.FocusEvent;
        import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    
        import qnx.ui.buttons.LabelButton;
        import qnx.ui.text.TextInput;
    
        [SWF(width="1024",height="600",backgroundColor="#CCCCCC",frameRate="30")]
        public class TextInputTest extends Sprite
        {
    
            private var myInput:TextInput;
    
            public function TextInputTest()
            {
                super();
    
                // support autoOrients
                stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
                stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    
                myInput = new TextInput();
                myInput.setSize(300,50);
    
                addChild(myInput);          
    
                var newBtn:LabelButton = new LabelButton();
                newBtn.label = "Click Me";
                newBtn.setPosition(325, 0);
    
                newBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectMyText);
    
                addChild(newBtn);
    
            }
            private function selectMyText(e:MouseEvent):void
            {
                stage.focus = myInput;
                myInput.textField.setSelection(0, myInput.textField.length);
            }
        }
    }
    

    hope it's what you want. Good luck!

  • When I type in photoshop all the text is compressed

    all the text looks like it's 80% width, but it is set at 100% so I can't change it. I tried to reset the text and it did nothing.

    It looks that you looked at the parameters of the character Panel, so the next step would be to reset the text (far left of the Options bar) tool

    Oops!  Already, you reset the text tool.

  • A better way to get all the text style ranges in a table

    I am trying to get all the text varies from the style of my document into one. I'm scripting in JavaScript, which I'm not very familiar with, so maybe that's the problem.

    This is what, in my view, should work:

    app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().textStyleRanges
    

    The above doesn't give me a text string, not an array of objects of text style than I expected. If I were using Applescript I would ask just for the beaches of text style object reference, but it is not a property that I found in the javascript object model.

    So I resorted to what is slower, but gives me what I want:

    var allStyleRanges = new Array();
    for (var g = 0; g < myStories.length; g++) {
      var storyStyleRanges = (myStories[g].textStyleRanges);
      for (var s = 0; s < storyStyleRanges.length; s++) {
      allStyleRanges.push(storyStyleRanges[s]);
      };
    };
    

    Does anyone have a better way?

    Lev,

    May it as your requirment...

    alert(app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().textStyleRanges.everyItem().getElements())

  • Code/script to extract all the text in the Illustrator document?

    Any who have code/script for this, or how to create the code to extract all the text on an active document in Illustrator. Extract the text as the text for any and all text elements in the document (TextFrameItem, TextRange, TextPath, etc.). We can just empty the text with alerts().

    I'm not sure of is what order or hierarchy to retrieve the text. Where do we start from activeDocument.textFrameItems/TextRanges/etc. How are text in Illustrator? I'm new to Illustrator scripting.

    Something as simple as that can do the trick.

    It will act on all open documents.

    you could then create a file and write to this alert, rather then just

    for(var i = 0; i < app.documents.length; i++){
        for(var j = 0; j < app.documents[i].textFrames.length; j++){
            var str = app.documents[i].textFrames[j].contents;
            alert(str);
            }
        }
    
  • How to select all the text in the active text block?

    Hello!

    I need a simple script for:

    1. Select all the text in the active frame (ctrl + A)

    2. Paste from the Clipboard (ctrl + V)

    3. go in the beginning new text (ctrl + Home)

    and

    4. Insert the 2 paragraph marks (press enter 2 x).

    That's all.

    I tried, but I'm not not an expert, only good script in DTP and pre-press.

    Thank you.

    Here you go again-

    if (app.selection.length > 0 && app.selection[0].hasOwnProperty ('parentTextFrames')) {

  • After Udating all the text missing in the player Application

    After you install the latest player Adobe in XP SP3, I noticed that whenever I want to print the print dialogue box of IE8 is missing all the text for the buttons, labels, etc. Then, I went to open the player to change the settings and the entire application lacks any of the text, including the title bar, buttons, labels, everything would have all text is completely empty. I tried to uninstall, running own Adobe and reinstall, all with no effect. Someone suggested the police Segoe UI is perhaps missing, and after the installation of those it is without effect. Then I uninstalled 11 and installed version 10. After that my IE would go at all, he begins to Flash on the screen and disappear. I had to uninstall the reader just to get my browser to run again. I really hope someone has a solution for this soon.

    Thank you

    PS: Adobe has any real Reader tech support?

    Since the last update of the player took place at the same time as Windows Update, it is possible that the combination of those that might have caused your problem.

    If I had the same problem (which I don't have on any of my XP system), I would

    • uninstall Adobe Reader
    • perform a restore of the system to a time before the reader / Windows Update
    • Install the latest version of the player

    then check if the drive works normally.  If so, run Windows Update.
