Multiline text entry area

The library QNX has any user interface element for text entry that takes several lines. For example the kind of thing you would find in a text editor such as Notepad. It seems that something very basic, but I can't seem to locate a class for itself in the API. The closest thing I can find is the TextInput class, but that is optimized for the single line.

I was wondering if I missed it, or if it does not exist. And if not, are there no other alternative, we can use?

Thank you!

Hey,.

you do not have missing something. Unfortunately there is not an existing input QNX mult-line text object. However, there are some workaround solutions and others, you can find in these forums. one in particular is a thread linked below. Basically, you need to change the internal textField object of the input text to make it work. Here is the link:

hope that helps. Good luck!

  • Captivate 9 - text entry area - cannot navigate through the input of text boxes on the same slide using enter key (works only tab)

    I designed a slide that has 3 areas of text entry.

    I need the user to be able to type in their response to the first box and then press the ENTER key, it will pass them in the next text box. After typing in their response to the second box, press ENTER, and then have developed pass to the third area.

    I don't want to use tab, I want to go to work as a shortcut key, so this works well on all devices. It feels like a trip to the logic of the user.

    I removed the button SUBMIT and check the validate user input.

    I put the shortcut key to ENTER in propriety / Actions area

    However, after that type in an answer and pressing on enter, the focus is not moved in the input text box available at the following address on the same blade.

    This happens regardless of browser (tested Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and IE9/10) and also OS - Windows 7, Mac OSX 10.9, 10.10 and latest version of iOS

    Only the tab key works (Ive even tried with other keyboard shortcuts and it always comes back to TAB).

    I know that this feature is possible in Captivate 9. I have read and watched many tutorials online, it seems a very basic feature. I could be wrong.

    This is a feature of wholesale/known or I'm doing something wrong.

    If a bug, is there a plan to fix it soon?

    Indeed, your problem is related to the Enter key as a shortcut key, not to have multiple TEB and one absolutely validation button. Take a look at this article very old (you are not the first to ask about this):

    A submit button for multiple text entry boxes? -Captivate Blog

    But here I explained to indicate to the user click in a next TEB, do not use input.

  • Help to the text entry area

    Hi all.

    I'm working on a project involving financial statements. I want that there is a default quantity in the text entry box. There are boxes of maybe 20 who would need a put option of default number in them. I just can't understand how do. The user will then put in the new numbering as appropriate, and then he'll see if it's the correct number or not. Don't know if I will check each one after you enter the number or ask them to fill it in there and click on submit. It's still a work in progress. Ideas on the default number would be useful.

    Lisa

    You must complete this variable, which can be made when you set these variables by placing it in the 'Value' field in the Variables dialog box.

    As I have explained, I have used which instead of use the literal value to make it easier to change this value for comparison.

  • Text entry area > background transparency to Cp5

    I have a project where I need to put in place all the objects of Text_Entry_Box with a transparent background 0% while keeping black text by default visible input characters.  When I apply a transparency of 0% value to the property "Fill & STROKE > Fill ' of the object Text_Entry_Box, the whole of the text box and its contents displayed in transparency of 0%; input background characters and text of the box are not visible on the Flash preview or publish.

    • Enter property element of the text box is set "visible".
    • Property 'Display the text framework Box' is not selected
    • No fade transition is applied to objects
    • There is no timeline stops keep popping up
    • With the help of Cp 5.0.0.596 (Win)

    Note that in previous versions of the Cp I have managed to make the background transparent text entry box object while keeping the visible text (with no problems).

    Could be a possible bug in Cp5 or I'm missing something.  Any ideas out there?

    Thank you

  • Text captions do not appear when it is used with text entry areas (C3)

    I'm building a simulation of accounting system where the learner needs to enter data.  I entered text boxes (one per blade) appearing all the time on the slide.  I have captions that tell the student what to enter, but are synchronized with the audio, then a final text legend who told them how to go to the next slide (press tab, etc.).  My problem is that the text captions do not appear if they are configured to appear after the text input area appears on the time line.  Has anyone experience this problem?  Any suggestions?

    We have created a work around using a highlight box where the text entry box will appear later - so that all the text captions and text entry boxes appear at the same time.  Should be an easier way!

    Hello

    Yes, we see this question over and over again. Especially with new users.

    You need to come to terms with the works of Captivate. Imagine it's like a stream flowing by. Expect a legend to appear, but something stopped the flow. Blocking is your text box for entry (TEB). He interrupts the slide, waiting for your user to enter data.

    The key here is that you need to adjust the point break for ETB.

  • Digital keyboard and text entry area

    I created a software simulation in which I used a text entry box. The user must enter the text and Captivate must validate without the learner input (for example, press the Enter key).

    The text ends with the number seven. Therefore, I put Captivate to validate text input when 7 came.

    Here's the problem:

    If a learner uses keys on their keyboard (instead of the keys above QWERTY), Captivate does not validate the text input.

    Any advice?

    Eureka! This works. Thank you much for the help. I had not used the option button in conjunction with a text input area, so I did not see how the two could be tied together. Your second answer makes clear. Thank you very, very much. Best regards, Ian

  • As a mandatory field text entry area

    Dear reader,

    I am to complete an E-Learning courses in Adobe Captivate 8. Everything goes well.

    However, in order to apply for approval of the course, it should be impossible to present an area of empty text input. I have read on this Forum and elsewhere and found a lot of possibilities with the progress actions and variables. I do not understand the basics of the application variable and put in place of advanced actions, but I am not able to apply this knowledge and make it work.

    Is there an (easy) answer? An instruction step by step to require users to enter a text input area?

  • How to set the default text for a text entry area dynamically?

    I do a simulation and grabbing a my user text entry.  I store in a variable and you want to use as the default text for a text entry later in the simulation box.  It seems like it would need current for a software simulation.  However, I don't see a way to set the default text.  If I put the variable in a legend, I would use the syntax $$variablename$ $.  I tried to fix this in the text by default, but it did not work.  It is not interpreted as a variable.  Does anyone do this?  Please share.  Thank you.

    I had a need to do that as well... put a variable as default text name in a TBE field.

    I have a widget AS3 to do this, which can be found here.  There a Cp 4 demo file that does exactly what you describe.

    I would like to know how it goes...

  • Text entry area: cursor may be positioned at the beginning of default data?

    I have a text input box on my slide with the default "$ 3.82.

    I need the user to type "$ 3.00" (3, or 3.0 or 3.00, etc..)  :-)

    Question: In its current form, when the slide is displayed, the cursor is in the input text box * after * the '2'. Is it possible in any way, shape, or form to have the cursor initially appear * before * the ' $'?
    (I have dug in the program and on this forum, but have not found an answer one way or another.)

    Thanks anyway.

    Hi John

    Unless someone has developed a custom Flash widget you might fall into a slide to do it, I'll tell you the answer is no. I've never known the purpose of text box entry to never behave differently from what you report. Think about it, my guess is that if you were to reposition the cursor, a new problem appears in that the text following the cursor would then move to the right, as new data have been entered.

    Just an observation here. I guess you have planted the box with a default value, so you might clue the user what to type. So, my thought here is to suggest possibly doing this via a text caption is close?

    Think a little here, it would be nice that when seeding a area text input in this way by default text, Adobe to have automatically selected for us when reading text. If you feel the same way, please consider submitting a form would like to request a change of behavior.

  • In heading 4 text entry area

    I'm having a problem with the placement of TBE in Captivate 4.  I am just placing the box in an area where the user must enter the text.  The problem is the box breaks.  When I draw when I need her and let go moves to a different location.  When I click on the box and use the CTRL or shift I can't line up where I need it.  I tried to restart the application.  Also, I remade the film from scratch with the same problem.  There must be a way to place the box exactly where you need it.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    How do these?

    using text or text box widget box.

    to describe:

    in my first slide I text entry areas for

    1 user name

    2. name of the superior

    3. the e-mail of the superior court

    Let's say that: 1. refer to varialbe V_UserN

    2. refer to V_sup

    3 see V_emailS

    next slide would be a video

    next slide would be a text entry or a text box... It is where the user writes anything

    With the button "submit" text entry box

    What I want in this text entry box is... If the user does not write any what upone by clicking on the button submit, the interaction would be 'please write a review on the text box. If the user write something the thing, the Send button run continue.

    How can I do this?

    next slide would be an input text field or a text box... in which the user write something on the issue (this isn't a slide of questionnaire). The message would be sent to the email of superiors. How can I do this?

    hope you can help me.

    Thank you

    To check if the user didn't write anything, you will have to compare the value of the associated variable of the TEB or text box with a v_null user variable. You must create this user variable and simply leave it blank.

    Take a look at my blog:

    Where is no good?

    You create the custom with standard objects question slide. There is a widget mail included with Captivate, but did not try if you can insert the value of a variable by an email address.
