Storm of UI layout - space keyboard even if it is hidden

Hi all

I developed a style of puzzle game where the user interface is composed entirely of buttons in horizontal frames. Works very well on the curve of Blackberry and other devices. Initial tests on the storm yielded dismal results (as usual)... The keyboard appears by default, who has absolutely no sense, as there is no input on the entire user interface, a few buttons fields. So, I tried to hide the keyboard in the constructor - did not work. Did a bit of research on this forum and decided to try to hide a method of onUIEngineAttached of the screen:

protected void onUiEngineAttached(boolean attached)
{
    getVirtualKeyboard().setVisibility(VirtualKeyboard.HIDE_FORCE);
    super.onUiEngineAttached(attached);
}

It worked to hide the keyboard. But when you push the menu button, the keyboard is displayed again. This is a problem. There is also another question. Now the user interface is designed as if it reserves space for the now hidden keyboard. Thus, in order to try to solve it, I placed the layout of UI components in this method of onUIEngineAttached after that the keyboard is hidden - always the same result.

Here is the code I use to draw the screen:

    private CustomDrawnButton[][] buttons = new CustomDrawnButton[4][4];
private String[] captions =
    {
        "1",
        "2",
        "3",
        "4",
        "5",
        "6",
        "7",
        "8",
        "9",
        "10",
        "11",
        "12",
        "13",
        "14",
        "15",
        "",
    };
    private int screenW = Graphics.getScreenWidth();
    private int screenH = Graphics.getScreenHeight();
    private int buttonWidth = (int) (screenW / 4);
    private int buttonHeight = (int) (screenH / 4);
        String[] selArray = captions;
        int ctr = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
        {
            for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++)
            {
                int index = MathLib.randomInt(0, selArray.length - 1);
                buttons[i][j] = new CustomDrawnButton(selArray[index],
                    buttonWidth, buttonHeight, ButtonField.CONSUME_CLICK);
                buttons[i][j].setFocusColor(prefs.getFocusColor());
                buttonsArray[ctr++] = buttons[i][j];
                buttons[i][j].setChangeListener(listener);
                if ("".equals(selArray[index]))
                {
                    currentTarget = buttons[i][j];
                    targetRow = i;
                    targetCol = j;
                }
                selArray = removePosition(selArray, index);
            }
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
        {
            HorizontalFieldManager row = new HorizontalFieldManager();
            for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++)
            {
                row.add(buttons[i][j]);
            }
            add(row);
        }

The question is how I set up so that when the main screen of this application, the keyboard is never displayed and no space is reserved for it? I have a preferences will need the keyboard screen.

I use jde 4.7.0 and Simulator 4.7.0.148 (9530-Verizon).

Thank you

Steve

Thank you javiergv. Unfortunately, using:

RIM-TouchCompatibilityMode: false

Didn't work, but I found another post that said to use this:

And that worked!

Tecra A11 - space keyboard key issue

Just wonder, if someone with an A11 has similar problems or my keyboard needs to be replaced.

When I type, very often the space key is not accepted. Very annoying when you type without looking at the text of all time.

Hello

I m not Tecra A11 owner but on my other laptops Toshiba, I have never had a problem with the keyboard. Each key will be recognized properly if I press on it.

I guess than your Tecra A11 is fairly new so it of still under warranty. Please contact the nearest authorized service provider. Guys can replace the keyboard because there is no unique key.
But don t you worry not about it, it is covered by the warranty. :)

Anyone know how to space objects evenly...

Hi all:
I have uniformly to the numbers of space on a page as a form of the grid and I want to take all the numbers I have on the page and separate them with 1/4 "or more. How can I do this with spend them all my time on the rule of counting?
Y at - it shaped a way to put my numbers on a grid automatically or something?
Thanks for any help or advice on this subject,
Paul

Paul,

The difficulty lies in the fact that you can select only one object as the key object, and therefore, you will need to distribute each row (or column) by itself. If you select all the objects and then select one of them and make distributions, you will see that Undo is your friend.

Therefore the alignment followed by several distributions as suggested in post #5:

(1) align horizontally numbers more left in all lines (Horizontal alignment to Center (or other) and distribute vertically, in two cases, using one as the object key;)

(2) distribute each line separately, using the one on the left as the key object.

Lenovo B590 - Arabic keyboard

Good evening

New here, not really a Lenovo customer but both my parents are. The thing is, both of them use the Arabic language, many being their native language and all but their laptops English/Greek. I just want to know if and how I can order replacement in English/ARABIC keyboards. My father uses the on-screen keyboard to type in Arabic and it kind of regret to see.

I got lost in the Lenovo support pages so I ask you for a redirect link, phone number, all which can help. I live in Greece now, I can do the replacement myself. Yet once again, I need an Arabic keyboard for B590 model...

I am eager to help here, I will appreciate any useful responses.

Thank you.

just found this on ebay. should work but to confirm, contact the seller first.

http://www.eBay.com/ITM/Arabic-layout-genuine-keyboard-for-Lenovo-B570-G570-series-/271207880987?PT=...

the alternative is to use an Arabic external keyboard if you do not find. In addition, you can change the keyboard on windows and put stickers on keys as an alternative.

I hope one of them helps.

Upgrade memory EliteBook 2760p - removal of keyboard problems

My 2760 p came with 4 GB, and I have now bought 2 x 8 GB to take up to 16 GB.

The existing RAM is in the secondary area of RAM (under the keyboard) with another (primary) RAM location empty available under the basic sercie coverage.

Use of the service manual (c03011611.pdf or part no.641800 - 002) I tried to follow the instructions, which are essentially:

-remove the battery, service coverage

-remove the 2 plugs screw (which do not actually appear to exist on the model recently bought) and unscrew the 5 captive screws

At the above, no problem, but the questions come when you try to remove the keyboard. The instructions are:

"

Insert a flat tool under the edge rear (1) of the keyboard near the hinge of the screen. Carefully lift the rear edge of the keyboard (2) and disconnect the keyboard. »

Questions are: has) unless I'm trying to plug in the wrong place (think so much - summer probe 20 minutes now) there is virtually no gap to insert any flat tool - I mean "virtually no space" I even tried under the knife of a surgeon...

and (B) I thought that I would try to return the unit and shake gently to allow I hope the keyboard let go to drop a small amount - but the keyboard does not seem to move.

Question - are those still running instructions and correct? and if so, what exactly is the thing down the keyboard without destroying them?

Thank you

PS Guys HP - photos of some of your books are not great quality (too dark) and have also been downsampled so remove detail key. Really, I'm not afraid download a 20 MB PDF manual if it makes things clearer.

Access your model as seen in the screenshot.

http://h20574.www2.HP.com/default.htm?lang=en&cc=us&hpappid=psml

Make sure that you are connected to the instance before you click on the media library.

Give the time for the video to load and when there, click on "Keyboard" in the left column.

Manuals can become obsolete as new models and features are introduced. HP is really bad for not their update, this applies to their drivers as well.

Keyboard Windows 7 Japanese IME

Hello

When you use Microsoft IME for input in Japanese IME by default Japanese keyboard even if I use a UK keyboard.

For example the @ and "are bad round.

I know that other keyboards can be chosen under the Japanese language however choose something else that Microsoft IME translates the impossibility of Japanese input.

So... the EMI must be used. How the layout can be changed in Microsoft IME?

This problem existed in Vista and XP. In fact, the last time I remember being able to use a keyboard on a Japanes EMI UK was Windows 98! All the same so it was somewhat a solution are wrong to operate.

Any ideas? :-)

Hello

I recently move to Windows 7. I tried the above solution but it fixed is not the issue. My Japanese keyboard Sony Notebook still have the @ on the wrong key. Any other suggestions?

TOPFORM,

Can you check something: Start > Accessories > easy access > on-screen keyboard (it will show keyboard on your screen) > click on it shift and see what character will be highlighted more than 2, is [@] or perhaps ["]?

...

Other things. I understand that you have installed the two layouts for the Japanese: Japanese and EMI. Alternatively, you can try to add the English keyboard and see how it will behave: Start > Control Panel > clock, language and region > Change keyboards or other input methods > Change keyboards... button > Add... button > expand English (United States) > expand keyboards > check United States International > OK > OK . Now try to open Notepad, select EN from the language bar on the taskbar and try to write [@] with an English keyboard

...

I also have the question. It's a Windows 7 preinstalled. It is possible that you have an application running in the background that can change the character you're trying to type?

If so, you're "stuck" in compatibility mode. This occurs when a version of the app (not compiled under 4.7) isloaded, but later replaced with a version that was compiled under 4.7,.

Yet once, go to Options / Advanced / Applications and disable the compatibility mode for this application.

BlackBerry Smartphones Blackberry Media Sync continues to display 'Please connect a Blackberry smart phone' when the Blackberry Storm is connected to the PC

About a 2 months ago when I would like to connect my (the first storm) blackberry storm to my computer via the USB cable supplied with the phone, I was able to transfer music from my computer (itunes) to the blackberry via Blackberry Media Sync with no problems (open Blackberry Media Sync, connect blackberry to the computer via the USB port and screen Media Sync would change so that I could sync to the blackberry storm music). I didn't even have to install Blackberry Media Sync in December 2009

But now after I connect my Blackberry Storm to my computer, the screen of Blackberry Media Sync does not change and continues to display "please connect a Blackberry smartphone. I tried these tips I found online:

1.) several reboots my computer (windows vista)

2.) update/reinstall Blackberry Media Sync, then by restarting my computer

3.) reconnection from blackberry to the computer, then open Media Sync

4.) Open Media Sync first and then connect the blackberry to the computer.

5.) installation BlackBerry USB and Modem drivers (even if I can't find the USB driver for it under the Universal Serial Bus Controller when I check in the Device Manager when you go to control panel – system and Maintenance – Manager of devices, but I found a v2 COM4 and COM5 RIM virtual serial Port when you select "devices by connection" under display in Device Manager) or are RIM Serial Port virtual v2 COM4 and COM5 drivers I'm looking for?

6.) go to Options (on blackberry) - memory and make sure Media Card Support, Media Transfer Protocol (MTO) and Mass Storage Mode Support are resolved on 'On', the encryption Mode is set to 'None' and mass storage Mode Auto activate when connected, it the value "Prompt" although I tried to 'Yes' as well. It says I have 785 MB of memory space of the unit out of 879 MB total memory of the device and 7.1 GB of free space on a total of 7.3 GB of Media Card Media Card.

None of the above tips and troubleshooting tips worked. I also checked the Blackberry technical solution center but I've not found anything there that has contributed to the other. I found discussions forums online, including issues of people with 'blackberry media sync cannot connect to the device' pop up, but I have not had this pop-up. The Media Sync screen remains just the same as if I never connected the blackberry storm to my computer in the first place even if my blackberry storm recharges via the computer.

Is there something that I miss or have not yet done? What should I do?

Too bad. I went to a Verizon store and they me remove the battery and turn the blackberry. Worked like a charm and I can now use Media Sync.

Also told me that I need to update the software of the phone blackberry using Blackberry Desktop software (I have version 4 and need to update to 5) and make sure to choose to back up files when you are prompted during the update or you will lose all files, the media and info saved on blackberry.

on-screen keyboard automatically appears when you edit Word documents on touchscreens - really annoying!

Hello, I just write my feelings because I really hope that Windows 8 will succeed, but it is disappointing at some point in terms of user experience. I apologize if my word is a bit harsh (since this is a forum for Microsoft), but I hope to see this problem resolved to do. I just get pissed off and frustrated on a simple function that could greatly improve the user experience, but isn't here.

It's Windows 8 does not pass to laptop mode (i.e. turn off the on-screen keyboard) automatically when it is docked/connected with the keyboard. This totally screw up the initiative of Windows 8 is a flawless, all around solution.

It is a serious problem for the 8 touch screen windows convertibles. Although I don't know who to blame, Microsoft or OEM. Microsoft being more responsible on the software side, I think that Microsoft should fix this. It is both a problem of Windows 8 and a problem of office or Microsoft even secretly to optimize the software for their own hardware to compete with manufacturers, which I'll explain below. I have a RT Surface and an Asus enrich your life, so I know clearly how Surface has an advantage on its same family competing software wise. These hybrid computers usually have a keyboard dock. When the keyboard dock is connected, the computer must have the ability to automatically disable the screen keyboard on. The usual scenario is when I work with a Word document on my keyboard dock, I use my hand to select text and insert the cursor (which is the thing to do if you have a touch screen). But unfortunately on hybrid OEM, Word appears the keyboard screen on every time I touch the text box, which not only blocks my view but also shifts my text view (taking into account the space for the touch keyboard). But this does not happen on the Surface! Makes you wonder what game is playing on Microsoft's OEM partners. We can say that it is Asus responsibility to add this feature. But shouldn't Microsoft do this universal of the functionality and benefits the entire ecosystem? Especially in this case MS designs software and they can't be cela an advantage over their own material. It is particularly bad experience on OEM hybrids (seen on ThinkPad tablet 2, Samsung ATIV Smart PC, Asus enrich your life,...). I've seen many users complain about this on the Internet with their computer of tactile hybrid of Windows 8 (you can search this forum for similar complaints). The only available for OEM hybrid solution is to disable services touch keyboard and writing, which is stupid and laborious. PowerPoint has also that annoying problem of pop-up auto keypad. I do not understand how Windows 8 will be successful if Microsoft plays this unfair game to its partners. (I hope not, but MS seem to care)

It is a problem of Windows 8 (except the Surface) because it does not automatically neutralize on whenever screen keyboard that an external keyboard is plugged. If the computer is still in tablet mode, even if it is converted into a laptop, which is laughable, given that Windows 8 is supposed to pass without fault between two modes. The fact that I have to manually stop the service of keyboard on screen (which requires administrative privileges) to switch the mode is particularly annoying.

It is a problem of office because it is on the Windows desktop, the only way to trigger the screen keyboard on is to touch the icon in the taskbar keyboard, even if you touch the area such as Notepad or address bar in Explorer text editing. This is logical since people will use the mouse and keyboard to work on traditional workstations. However, the only exception is the office, that triggers the keyboard screen on every time you touch a text edit box. Do not ask me to switch the touch mode and mode mouse in the office - no difference. The keyboard is displayed. When you change a word document and need to go through the pain of imagery seen the keyboard popping up every time when you select a word or insert a cursor!

It is a problem with Microsoft because Microsoft has an advantage over OEMS in the configuration of their software to give the best user experience. But their own material does not respect promises. I am pleased that OEMS have developed options better, but disappointed about how MS software a secrete advantage on their own material (Surface).

There may be a solution I don't know. I would be very happy if someone can shed some light on me.
