• Satellite C655 - text insert point is erratic, wandering and deletes

  I'm having an erratic text insertion point.
  When you use MS Word, WordPress or other trying to hit, the text insertion point jumps around while typing.
  The result is;

  (1) what I'm typing is inserted in the text that is already written,
  (2) text is placed elsewhere in the page, or
  (3) written text is deleted - this may be a word or a whole paragraph.
  Type it is like playing a game - type you and watch where the words are placed or erasure and always complete a sentence.

  I use a Satellite C655 which I bought through BJ, Word 7, Internet Explorer and Word Starter 2010.
  I don't like this version of Word, but my drive for Word 2003 does not install because of a "missing file" - go figure.
  It installed on my new Windows 7 desktop computer.

  Any suggestions? Is it a problem that I would return to my laptop for Toshiba?
  Since I'm a writer, this problem is serious for me.

  Hello

  If your laptop uses an older version of BIOS, please update the BIOS to the latest status.
  In addition, you must disable the touchpad while typing.
  In my case, I touched the touchpad accidentally area while typing and so my cursor jumped on another line

• (PS CS3) Select all the text to change the fill color?

  I have a graphic with text: the text was not inserted by Photoshop, and it is not available as text; It's just a part of the graph.  I would like to change the color of the text.

  I can select each letter and each block of punctuation, etc. by using the magic wand and shift + click on each element.  Is it possible, however, simply select all the text - or at least a line full - with one or two moves or orders, vice boredom with a click on each letter, comma, I dot and so on?

• 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);
          }
      }
  }

• Align to the left the text anchor point in After Effect

  Hello. Sorry if this question was very noovy, but I need left align multiple layers of text. So, I want to put my on board left the text anchor point. Because I need to be able to change the text and get the same effect, I would like to place the anchor point on the left edge by using an expression.
  

  I used something like
  

  x = 0;
  

  Y = this.sourceRectAt () .height/2;
  

  [X, Y]
  

  However, small, apparently random offset is throw me off. How can I align my text anchor point to the left edge?

  Thanks in advance!

  Yes... I created a font that has 0 left/right bearings, and it worked perfectly.

• How to select all the text, all layers including locked or not visible, using VBScript?

  I'm looking for the more elegant syntax through a document and select all the text frames.

  You cannot select objects in... locked or hidden layers, so you will need to unlock/show layer and do what you need to do with the text, while the layer is visible/unlocked.

  to get all the loop text through the text in the object of the document, you will get all the text elements. If you loop through text in a layer object, you won't get the text located within groups.

• How to select all the text in the document?

  I need to select all the text in a long export to RTF document. I only seem to be able to select a story. Any ideas of how I can do?

  Thank you

  Ian

  Cannot be done. You will need to attach all the text boxes in a long history, or to use the 'ExportAllStories.jsx' script that comes with your installation default InDesign.

  There are other alternatives (each using scripts), and the best way may depend on what are your intentions with the exported file - for example, if you want to read back into their original text after the mounting frames, well, there are ways to do it.

• 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;

• Insert the list of names of link on the current page to the current text insertion point?

  Hello

  I need to automate the insertion of a list of the names of the links located on the page current / active to the blinker current text. (I forgot the technical name of the thing of blinking text line).

  Thank you!

  That would be "cursor" (apparently taken from Latin, 'Messenger', not a person who cursed a lot).

  This javascript does the trick. He first tries to determine the page, which is a bit awkward because the text blocks can be nested, on a master page, or on the pasteboard. If the script "does nothing, then closes" (quite a common mistake) or error, this would be a place likely to fail.

  If he has found its own page, it's a simple case of iterating over all the graphics on this page, which is fortunately a property 'Page '.

  theStoriesPage = app.selection[0].parentTextFrames[0];
  while (1)
  {
   theStoriesPage = theStoriesPage.parent;
   if (theStoriesPage.constructor.name == "Page")
    break;
   if (theStoriesPage.constructor.name == "Character")
    theStoriesPage = theStoriesPage.parentTextFrames[0];
   if (theStoriesPage.constructor.name == "Spread" || theStoriesPage.constructor.name == "MasterSpread")
    exit(0);

• BUG: Insertion of the text cursor Point

  Anyone had any luck placing the text cursor at the beginning or the end of a line on the meadow in any application when its towards the edge of the screen?  For example, pretend that the ^ is where they place the cursor when you type to move.

  T ^ he dog jumped over the fence ^ e

  It the hell out of me to bugs and is only a problem when the text is towards the sides of the screen.  When you press to move the cursor, you can place only after the second letter at the beginning or at the second to last to the end.  If you must correct these letters, you must remove and way back just to obtain appropriate cursor positioning.  On the iPhone, you can just press on and hold to bring up the magnifying glass and drag the slider to where ever you need.  WebOS needs a same function, or at least set on which you can place the cursor where you need.

  I'm looking for a solution to this, but had no luck.  Any ideas?

  PLCE the cursor to the place, you need, and then press and hold the Orange key. The cursor will be arrows around it and you can move by dragging your finger. This will work much matter where your finger.

• How to select all the text in the address bar when you open a new tab

  I changed browser.newtab.url to a Web site with links, that I often use. Now, I have the problem that I don't always want to use one of these links. So when I start typing in the address bar text simply add the URL of my site. The problem would be solved, if the text in the address bar is activated every time when I opened a new tab (I could press each time crtl + of course, but I usually just type)

  Is there something in the config, I can change or an Addon?

  I had this same problem, but I was able to remedy this by installing this add-on:
  
  https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/custom-new-tab/

  After the installation, remember to go to add-ons, Extensions; Click on the Options button; and select the development of space in the URL bar.

• Problem of text selection in the text field for entry in the emulator

  I'm having a problem of text selection in a text field when I run my application in the emulator Playbook. Let me see if I can expose the problem here:

  1. The field in question is a classic text, text with an integrated in police entry field. The domain is in a SWC and referenced in another FILE.
  2. The code is set up such that when a user clicks the field function is called to highlight all the text. The code is more or less as follows:

  thisField.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onFieldClick);
  
  private function onFieldClick(event:MouseEvent):void
  {
     var selectedField:TextField = event.target as TextField;
     selectedField.setSelection(0, selectedField.text.length);
  }
  

  The problem I'm having is that when I try clicking on the emulator, the text field in 'domain' is sometimes selected as expected, sometimes not. When the text is not selected as expected the cursor always appears in the field and the Playbook keyboard slides up by below. What is particularly problematic, that's what often happens, is that the whole scene moves upward on 10px when it is clicked on the ground. If I try to click on the same ground once again, another change to the top of 10px or so, etc..

  So why the text not properly selected and why the scene evolves upwards?

  I realize that more information may be required from me to correctly solve this problem, but if someone has all understand why this may be the case, I would be happy to learn from him.

  Thank you

  David

  I can answer the question of displacement.  This is a bug in BB and supposed to be fixed in version «next» SDK

  The question of the selection, I'll guess has to do with the fileld with focus, selection is not possible.  Try to set the focus outside of maybe the text field?
