Thank you

  • I make the school, searching for words in the empty spaces, and something began to offer me words when I start typing. I don't want to!

    To my school work, type the words into the empty spaces to practice typing and spelling correctly. When we submit every page, the system ranks for us. The words are there on the page. I did this on Firefox since March, but I got a new computer for a few days now. I don't know if it's a Firefox, Windows or computer problem. When I start typing a few words into the empty spaces, all of a sudden a small window appears, with a word in it, as if to show me what it should be. Are the words that I was seized in this school work, but they are not what I want and I don't want this feature. It is annoying and does help me to learn the words. (for example, I typed 'v' at the beginning of "viscous" and was offered "visceral".) I typed 't' of tachypnea, was offered 'superior', 'triamcinolone' and 'cones '. When I continued, 'your', I was offered 'parietal '! "These are all words, I typed in my curriculum in the last day or two). It started just happening tonight. Where it comes from and how can I make it disappear?

  • Search for text in the option in Windows Search 4.0 Preview pane doesn't work do not

    I use XP SP3.  I recently downloaded Windows Search 4.0.

    When the Windows search results window opens, I noticed that it is possible to search for text in the preview pane.  I click on a file and go to OPTIONS > COMPONENT of VISUALIZATION, but see that FIND is grayed out and unavailable.

    This function worked before, when I loaded Windows Search first; now, it no longer works.  My files have been fully indexed; and I made no changes to the computer since then.  I tried to restart the computer, but there was no change.

    Any ideas? Matthew W. I. Dunn

    Hello Matthew w. I. Dunn, welcome.

    I recommend trying a system restore to see if that solves the problem. Try this:
    1. click on START
    2. click on "all programs".
    3. click on "Accessories".
    4. click on "system tools."
    5. click on "system restore."
    6 follow the prompts shown to restore your system to a date before the problem started. Although the system restore does not target the personal data, it is recommended that you back up all data such as music, photos and documents in case something is not bad.

  • Script to search for text and remove the hyperlink and characterstyle link which applies (back to normal)

    I need help with my script to search for text and remove the hyperlink and characterstyle link which applies (returns the normal text).

    I can't do either as I want.  I want the user to be able to type in a dialog text they want to search for, do search this text IGNORING case (case insensitive) and then for all instances that he find it, remove character styles that are applied to the (set to [none]) and delete the hyperlinks.

    My code seems to define the character style [None], when I click on the text and look at the window of character Styles, BUT all old styles (font color, underline) are always applied and removed not as I want.

    Also, I can't understand how to remove all of the old links.

    Here is my code:

    myDocument var = app.activeDocument;

    var noneStyle = myDocument.characterStyles.item ("[None]");

    var myFindVal = "";

    var myErrorText = "";

    var myErrorCount = 0;

    myDialog = app.dialogs.add var ({name: "search user submitted text and delete hyperlinks from objects found.", canCancel: true});

    {with (MyDialog)}

    {with (dialogColumns.Add ())}

    {with (borderPanels.Add ())}

    staticTexts.add ({staticLabel: "search and delete hyperlinks for :"}); "})

    myTextBox var = textEditboxes.add({minWidth:100});)

    }

    }

    }

    If (myDialog.show () == true) {}

    myFindVal = myTextBox.editContents;

    doSearchAndReplace();

    app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;

    app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;

    If (myErrorCount == 0) {}

    Alert ("done! ("Part of the links have been removed for: '" + myFindVal + ""! "");

    }

    else {}

    Alert ("last error: '" + myErrorText + "' & number of errors:" + myErrorCount);

    }

    }

    myDialog.destroy ();

    function doSearchAndReplace() {}

    app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = myFindVal;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.caseSensitive = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeHiddenLayers = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeLockedLayersForFind = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeLockedStoriesForFind = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeMasterPages = false;

    app.findChangeTextOptions.wholeWord = false;

    var myFoundItems = myDocument.findText ();

    for (i = 0; i < myFoundItems.length; i ++) {}

    myRemoveHyperlinkAndStyle (myFoundItems [i]);

    }

    }

    function myRemoveHyperlinkAndStyle (myFoundItem) {}

    try {}

    myDocument.hyperlinkTextDestinations.item (myFoundItem) .remove ();

    myDocument.hyperlinkTextSources.item (myFoundItem) .remove ();

    myDocument.hyperlinkURLDestinations.item (myFoundItem) .remove ();

    myFoundItem.applyCharacterStyle (noneStyle);

    }

    {catch (MyError)}

    myErrorCount ++;

    myErrorText = MonErreur;

    }

  • navigation arrow back stopped working, also, does not get suggestoins when I start typing a URL... How can it be fixed?

    So, after I deleted a bunch of files/applications today (computer threatened to crash), Firefox has started to do some weird things. Backwards navigation is not possible; the back navigation arrow is grayed out. Also, when I start typing a URL, it suggests is more the rest of it, either in the URL bar itself, or in a drop-down list (it is used to do both). 16.0.2 is the current version? It's him that I kept, I deleted the others. Recently, I had the announcement that Apple is not support my operating system, Mac OS X 10.5.8, I don't know if that's relevant. How can these things be fixed?

    I use Windows, but I can suggest a number of things you can try.

    1. right click on your toolbar, click Customize. Click on the button "Restore Default Set".

    2. go in the Firefox menu > help > troubleshooting information. In the tab which opens later, click on "reset Firefox".

  • Search for text on a Web page in ModernUI IE10

    Is there a way to search for text on a Web page in the version of the modern UI for IE10?

    If you use modern IE, the shortcut must be identical to it in most web browsers:

    CTRL + F
    So, open IE, select a text field that opens the keyboard on the screen, then tap on and hold down the Ctrl key and press F release both. You should see a little extra box we pop that is your field of research to this page.

  • Is it possible to search for text in an Illustrator file from an external source like the Finder (Mac)?

    I'm trying to find some similar text strings on hundreds of files.  Specifically, I'm looking for dimensions.  4.50 "for example.  I want to see how many files have this dimension within them so that I can group them for production purposes.

    Is there a way to search for text in Illustrator (I use CS5) files from Finder?  Or another program of research?  I use a Mac.

    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated and would help save me a lot of time.

    Yes. While the Finder cannot find the content of .ai files, it can do it with .pdf files. If you change the extension of a .ai in .pdf file, you can use Spotlight to search by content.

    This fact, combined with a file rename utility as A Better Finder Rename, you can leave temporarily rename all of your .ai files so they end up in something like 'RENAMED.pdf '. Then, once you have performed your search, find all files ending in RENAMED.pdf, to delete the word "RENAMED" and change the end for .ai again.

    Of course, this isn't something you want to get into the habit of doing.

  • Can I search for text in iframe?

    I do an exploration to see if I can display content SharePoint in IFrames. Success! I can view Word files saved as HTML pages and view it in IFrames.

    But then, I decided to see if I can identify keyboards in the IFrame to a search. Alas, my plan falls flat.

    I suspect that the answer is no, but I hope to be denied. Can I somehow search for text that appears in an IFrame?

    Hello

    The IFrame points to something included in the RoboHelp project or he is simply presenting something from outside the project?

    If the content within the IFrame is part of the project, research should be able to find terms in the document. But I think that if he says something of that RoboHelp don't is not yet aware, you would see questions.

    See you soon... Rick
