I can't do anything with the text boxes in my InDesign file.

I consider myself fairly well with InDesign. But now, I'm quite a. I just spent two hours designing a newsletter before and inside the cover. I filled two text boxes with the text that I stole from a Word file. But now, I can't do anything in the text boxes. I click and nothing happens. Nothing does highlight. The framework is not locked. I don't know what to do. I am little freaked out that InDesign can do this to me.

Look for the locked layers

(Menu) object > unlock all on the spread

Check the Live Page vs Master Page (you could have worked on the master (?)

    XP home sp3 can use printer/sp2 vista home premium & files on a network private wireless, but not vice versa. Vista can see xp connected on the entire map, but can not do anything with the icon (it shows the IP etc. When hovered over with the mouse). tried fix & checked all the rest including the settings found on the masses of internet sites. don't think that this problem is so widespread and not final fix?. someone must know the answer. both computers have norton 360 v6. !. two computers use internet very well through the same network switch. two computers worked flawlessly again, no repairs, no reinstall, not zero other problems ever (always ran 360 and first market backup battery).

  • Update of dynamic Action with the text box

    This goes along with: update records with the text box

    APEX: 4.0.2

    THEME: SAND

    SERVER: Oracle-Application-Server-10g/10.1.3.1.0 Oracle-HTTP-Server

    I created an example with more comments on the page:

    workspace: stevendooley34

    username: dev01

    password: dev01

    application: examples of Forum

    page: update example

    I've implemented just as I think it should be put in place, but records only updates by clicking on my Refresh"" button.

    Keep in mind that the example is found in the apex 4.2.5 but I will implement this in 4.0.2.

    Thank you

    Hi Steven,

    I think the main thing that was missing was adding the elements used in the PL/SQL "Page to go".

    The reason this is necessary is so APEX know what values of point on the browser should be sent (as part of the AJAX call) to the browser.

    IF you had all the elements that must be returned to the screen, then you will use the 'Page field items to return.

    I've also corrected a few things, P6 instead of P6 and P6_SEARCH_TYPE instead of SEARCH_TYPE, but they were just small "bugs" in the example.

    I also added another real action to refresh the report after the update.

    Thank you

    PS. I do not validate that your code works for multiple, but the first glance entries and a quick test, it seems to work fine.  I focused only on the DA.

  • Update records with the text box

    APEX: 4.0.2

    I'm just letting my user paste values in a text box, click a button and then update some fields for this record.

    I created an example with more comments on the page:

    workspace: stevendooley34

    username: dev01

    password: dev01

    Keep in mind: the apex, theme, and Server version are different where I created the example. The above version, theme and the server are the stats of my workplace.

    -changes

    Or if the modification of the code below would be easier I can go that route.

    Update oef_itv_ndn

    Set cancelled_cd =: MMR_CANCELLED_CD.

    closed_date =: MMR_CLOSED_DATE.

    admin_remarks =: MMR_ADMIN_REMARKS

    where abc = '12345';

    I created a dynamic Action with the above code works correctly.

    but instead of "abc = '12345' 'I need it to be" where abc in: SEARCH_INPUT "

    : SEARCH_INPUT is the text box that users can paste values in this format:

    12345

    67890

    98765

    so, when it comes to the clause "where" I need to maintain all records that are in the text box.

    Post edited by: StevenD609

    The "WHERE" clause is in the wrong position.

    It should be part of the "USING" clause)

    (the nickname table 'data' is defined in the scope of this subquery)

    In addition, it seems to me good.

    If you're still having problems, you can go to the forum 'SQL and PL/SQL '.

  • Acrobat CC test done, and now I can't do anything with the PDF files created or uploaded through this program.

    This test done, and I can't print or do anything with pdf documents in my files. How to open them or view them to use? Message keeps coming back that the trial is over and wants to take me up on the purchase site. If I tried to print a pdf file, it doesn't let me. What should I do?

    Hi zeena1,

    You can use the free software Adobe Reader (Adobe Acrobat Reader DC install for all versions) to view, comment, & print PDF files.

    However, if you want to edit or create a PDF files you need to buy or subscribe it Plans and prices | Adobe Acrobat DC.

  • Can't do anything with the AV Scripts or Multicolumn

    Have a script for an animation, written in AV format, so that dialogue and plans specific can be sync'd.  However, I cannot generate lists where whatever it is this script of AV of the reports.  You want to do a breakdown of all the sites, all the characters and all other goods marked (I can not mark anything in this format either).  Is it going to be addressed or I need to duplicate work by writing things in a format of scenario or telefilms Harlequin (less useful for this type of project) just to get the breakdowns created?  If I can't do the latter, is there a way to convert AV to the scenario without all that retyping?

    Hello

    Characteristics that you mentioned are not available for AV and multi-column scripts and I'm afraid you will need to have your script in script or movie format to use them. Having said that, instead of having to retype all please try a simple copy paste your script first, which should keep most of the formatting and make your job easier.

    Support these features for column scripts is present in our backlog but it ould take time for us to achieve this. Let us know if you encounter other problems.

    My apologies for the inconvenience that is facing you.

    Thank you

  • show/hide the object with the text box

    Hello world

    has obtained a display code and masking of an object with a button and it does not work well. This is the code

    function show_hide_image1(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

    Image1.visible =! Image1.visible;

    }

    Enterbtn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, show_hide_image1);

    Now, got another code with a box of password who send me on different Label based on what is in it. There is the code.

    Enter.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4);

    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    If (Passwordbox.text == "cryocath") {}

    gotoAndStop ("cryocath");

    } Else if (Passwordbox.text == "54321") {}

    gotoAndStop ("A54321");

    } Else if (Passwordbox.text == "123456789") {}

    gotoAndStop ("A123456789");

    } else {}

    Stop ('error')

    }

    }

    Now, my question is, I want to introduce my hide/show code this code but do not understand how to do it. What I want is that if I enter my Passwordbox, my "image1" show/hide object "image1". If I get "image2", my "image2" show/hide object. Can someone help me with this? TNX

  • interactive PDF with the text box replace Chinese simsun font

    Hi all

    We have designed an interactive pdf with text fields. We need the text fields in a Chinese font. I understand that this cant be done in Indesign (change the police seized in Chinese), I moved the file to Acrobat Pro and used the text property to change the font Simsun but when we try the police is always in English. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

    Thanks in advance

    Paul

    It will take the user to install the Asian language pack and or traditional Chinese:

    Adobe - Adobe Reader: for Windows: Adobe Reader 11.0.09 - Pack of Asian and extended language font Packs

    When the user attempts to enter Chinese characters, it will invite the user to download if is not already installed. Large unicode fonts get not include for the use of form fields as other fonts are.

  • Is is possible to make several updates with the text box

    How to enter an area and have it update several records in a field, I can do this with sql?
    Thank you
    Doug

    you want to update multiple fields in the same folder? If so, you could do something like:

    UPDATE emp
       SET comments = :P150_text
           extra_comments = :P150_text
     WHERE emp_id = :P150_emp_ID
    {code}
    
    this will set the comments and extra_comments fields both equal to the :P150_text apex item. you would put this into a procedure on your page.
    
    If you were updating the comments field for multiple records you would have to make a cursor for X records and loop through X records and make the comments := :P150_text
    
    good luck...
