Illustrator CS5 - removal of the empty text boxes

I always found it difficult to choose the type that I want when I use the text tool to edit text. I can click directly on the type, but I guess I'm a zillionth of a pixel off because about half of the time, it assumes I want to make a new text box. If my documents are littered with boxes of invisible empty type, which often get grouped with other objects, causing a lot of problems. I would like to know:

1. how to make it easier to choose the type.

2. how to remove all the empty text boxes. I remember hearing in an integrated way to do this, which indicates Adobe knows that this is a problem, but rather than the easier type selections, they give us a shortcut to undo the problem they have caused. In any case, I forgot the shortcut.

Thanks for any help,

Dave

Try it Select > object > Eparses Points control. It should recognize the empty text objects.

  • Empty text box value when reading about the LV2012 development system but no Production

    Development platform: 32-bit Windows 7, LV2012 Professional Development System.

    Production of platforms: Windows XP.

    We have a test application, we have developed (in haste, I might add) who has a curious problem.  As part of the installation for each test, read us a text box with a serial number entry and record them in the log files.  Series enough.

    This works very well on production machines - no apparent problem.

    However, on the development computer, when I try to read the text box, all I get is an empty string.  I tried to read directly from the Terminal, as well as using a property value box.  Each time, there is nothing in the string.  This is even though I'm looking at the text box and there are visible data in it.

    Clear the text box repeatedly, I'm looking to see if any of those that occur at the wrong time.  And, indeed, I am looking a probe value of ' ' from the property node Value with the string "1234" visible in the text box while NONE of the compensation functions have been affected.

    The test application uses a pretty standard user interface event loop model, with an event loop manages the user input and the other event loop manages the business logic.

    Anyone have any idea what can cause this, or a better search string to find clues?

    Thank you

    As promised, I did go to the bottom of it.

    Simply enable "update of value while typing" gave me the result I expected.

    To explain: I had a key event down to the first text box that has been copied to this text box.  Whenever a key was hit in this text box, the value would be read and updated.  I did not have all the events for the new text box.  It has not been updated to what some other events.  At that time, it was apparently too late (most of the time on the development computer) and occasionally on the Production machine.

    Activation of the "Update value while typing" indicator means that the value field would properly up-to-date each time he has been seen/accessible.

  • Copy empty text boxes so that when you fill in one of the other

    I use Acrobat Professional 8.  I size a text box empty, it is automatically labeled "Text1".  I can copy the empty box by holding the CTRL key and moving the box.  Now I have 2 boxes.  If I want to do 3 boxes, I repeat this action.  The only problem is the following: all say 'Text1' and if you fill out the first box, all the other boxes are populated with the same information.  Here's my question: How can I copy empty text boxes so that this doesn't happen. in other words, how can I copy the boxes as if I fill in the first box, all the other boxes remain empty until I go and fill them?  Please, I beg you.  Thank you.

    Somethings to try:

    Each of the replicated text boxes give a unique name (Text1, Text2, Text3, etc..)

    Or placer place Text1, and then in the context menu, select "Place multiple fields".

    This replica of the first, and provides a unique name for each.

    Place each field as you wish.

  • y at - it a keyboard shortcut for go to the first text box on a page when the focus is on the address bar?

    I can use Alt + D to reach the address bar to enter a URL, but is there a way I can then go to the default text box, to enter data, once the search engine page was opened, using a shortcut key? I have the commands in the shortcut keys page doesn't recognize as not being what I want.

    Not as far as I know. Sites may assign a keyboard shortcut to a text field if they like, known as an AccessKey, but he is not necessarily going to be any consistency, and the site you may not be using one.

    It is possible, there could be an add-on or userscript to help with this. Or otherwise, someone might be able to write one for a particular site.

  • Firefox crashes when I try to enter data into the URL text box.

    Firefox crashes whenever I try to add data in the URL text box or the text box search in the toolbar. When it freezes it also locks on the Task Manager. However, the other routines running continue to run. I've disabled all my antivirus. always freezes. I left the Task Manager; always freezes and can't open the Task Manager. While it freezes, it is still possible to reduce the window of Firefox or resize it. If I try to kill him, I get a message "no answer."

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Open dialog box reorganizes the files that appear in the file text box

    I asked about this problem for a while - it still exists under Windows 7 Microsoft apparent feels that it is the correct behavior. In an application using a dialog open, where multiple files can be selected by clicking on them, while the CTRL key is held down, the resulting list of file names appears in the file text box. However, the first clicked file name remains last in the list while others remain in the proper order. Why is this? (An example of application is Windows Media Player, where you do a right click, then click on file and then open. The open dialog box appears and allows the selection of multiple files). When this "feature" has been more boring, it's when I try to create a CD or DVD and I want to control the order of the files.

    Hello RickL - CaryNC, welcome.

    This feature is by design. Of course, you can select the files in reverse order. I would really recommend providing feedback about this here:

    Other than that, unless you use an alternative shell, the feature is a design problem. Ryan Thieman

  • Text run horizontally through the two text boxes

    I am trying to run the text between the two areas of text, but in a continuous manner. Essentially, we have disclosed no claimed that crosses a spread. Someone, that is created is no longer here, two text boxes (one on each page) and has managed to take the text where the first line in the first text box has continued in the second text box and then wrapped into the first text box and then continued in the second text box and so on.

    So with the paragraph above text might hit the left text box to "Essentially" and continue to "we" the first line of the text on the right box. Go overboard and then to the second line of the left text box continuing to the second line of the text on the right box. And so on. I can't understand what they have done, but I'm sure it's something simple in InDesign.

    Note: these are areas of unique text, not two columns in a text box.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I see it. The text is flowing the way it does in mine. Who are soft return characters at the end of each line in the first screenshot, and # is a marker of the end of history. The lines were manually arranged and set frame on the left. This means that if you add a few words it will crumble.

  • How could I add together the numerical values in the dynamic text boxes?

    I do an application and I currently have sections such as travel, rent, etc., where you can press one of two buttons to increase or decrease the total number (fresh) for this article. All totals are displayed in the dynamic text boxes - here is an example of the code for a section-

  • Value display trace in the dynamic text box

    Hey just work on an exercise and I can't understand the code to display the value of the trace in a dynamic text box.

    The following code generates exactly where I am at this time.

    Import 12345678910111213import;

    import flash.text.TextField;

    Basic color picker (based pixel)

    var myColourBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData (500 400, false, 0xFFFFFF * Math.random ());

    var myColourBitmapImage:Bitmap = new Bitmap (myColourBitmapData);

    Add to list

    addChild (myColourBitmapImage); Add to the scene

    Get colors

    var pixelValue:uint = myColourBitmapData.getPixel (85,62); color of the pixel at X, Y

    displayed in the output window

    trace (pixelValue.toString (16)); toString (16) converts uint in a number of Hexadecimel format

    Here are a few screens, I want the values of trace output to appear next to the text in the dynamic text box

    Picture 4.png

    Picture 6.png

    I'm not sure of how to call the pixelValue to my text box, any help would be appreciated!

    Before or after the line that begins with «trace...» ' set dynamicTextFieldInstanceName.text = pixelValue.toString (16); Replace dynamicTextFieldInstanceName with the actual name that you gave to the dynamic textfield.

    There is an error in your output window. It seems that you have not integrated a font in the dynamic textField.

    Thank you!!!

    Steve

    If you change the html true property - either by using the property inspector or code if you are working with code - then you should be able to have different styles in a text box. This is the property that you tried and it didn't work so I need to learn more about how you try to apply the formatting.

    In cases concerning need it AS3... In general, I would say that if you do not have an overwhelming need to AS2 so you should use AS3. It has nothing to do with the text of no!
