Text fields - change shading from text entry?

How do I set a default value for the text field empty to gray shading and then have the shading change transparent (no color) if the user enters any text?  Is this possible?

Hello

Well, press the last!

Select the textfield (s) and in the page layout palette, set ALL margins to 0.000 in.

To compensate for move them from the paragraph palette and set the left and right margins to 1 mm (or 1.5 mm). You can enter values in mm and LC Designer will convert units (probably in).

Then, in the object > palette field to ensure that the filling is a light gray and the border, a black line.

It should work!

Good luck

  • Changing the position of the cursor in a text entry field and remove digital zeros

    Flash8 - AS2

    It's good to be back after all these years and thank you for the people of faithfull as kglad, Ned Murphy, Rothrock and all others who give much of themselves to succeed this forum!

    My problem:

    I have a text entry field that is named in the box of properties like 'numberOfKids '.

    When the program is run, and a DELETE or BACKSPACE is pressed input textfield turns off

    and all the calculations that use the "numberOfKids" shows NaN.

    I got trapped in NaN and indefinite so that a digital 0 appears instead of a white one.

    There are two problems:

    First problem:

    The cursor to the left of zero, so the first number entered by the user is 10 x larger than what they want.  0 becomes 10.

    Question: How can I get the cursor to the right of 0?

    Second problem:

    When I manually move the cursor to the right of 0 and a number of entry, let's say 4, it appears like 04.

    Question 2: How to remove the zero digital in input textfield?

    Thanks for the help.

    Here is the code I use:

    calculateChildWeight = function () {}
    If (isNaN (numberOfKids)) {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If ((numberOfKids) == undefined) {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If (numberOfKids > = 0 & & numberOfKids < = 137) {}
    numberOfKids = numberOfKids;
    } else {}
    numberOfKids = 0;
    }
    If (isNaN (adjustedChildWeight)) {}
    adjustedChildWeight = 0;
    }
    If ((adjustedChildWeight) = undefined) {}
    adjustedChildWeight = 0;
    }
    adjustedChildWeight = Number (numberOfKids *(-100));
    numberOfKids.setSelection (numberOfKids.length, numberOfKids.length);
    If (numberOfKids.length = 2 & & numberOfKids < 10) {}
    remove the first character or no leading zeros
    numberOfKids = numberOfKids;
    // }
    };

    More important answer first: you get two helpfuls and one correct answer per thread. I think that once you give a specific answer a useful, you can't give the same answer. But I don't know.

    First of all, make sure that none of these text fields have a property of vars set.

    Also, you don't need to do it in two steps: revisedValue =-100 * parseInt (numberOfKids.text)

    As you read the value of your textfields of entry by using the text property, you also assign the value of the more dynamic by using the text property. That's what you do, right?

  • Average click boxes, and text entry fields are noted

    I create several CBT intended to show users how to navigate a new software. When I record, I choose the demonstration and training modes. For the part in training mode, I have several click boxes, and text entry fields. At the present time, when the user clicks on or between text, it has to click in the right place or enter the correct answer to move forward, otherwise a failure caption appears that says something to the effect of 'should have clicked here, please try again.' They try again and go to the next slide. When the training section is marked, everybody gets 100%.

    I was wondering if it is possible to create a user click in the wrong place or enter the wrong answer and still be able to advance to the next slide. So, not everyone would have a 100% automatic.

    Thank you!

    Mary

    P.S. I should also mention that I am using Captivate 4.

    Hello Mary,.

    As I wrote in my first response, simulation training is not intended to be marked. You should really start with a simulation of assessment to avoid having too many change thereafter.

    Have created a lot of assessments used in examinations (do not use an LMS, but this is not necessary) and my students would have been very happy if they could all have scored 100%.

    Enough joking. How you have configured the settings for the click boxes, text entry boxes, buttons? I give them only 1 attempt, never show failure, success, or legends of suspicion. As both actions for success or failure, I put in 'go to the next slide. The evaluation progresses so what was the action of the user, correct or incorrect. And the score will be awarded only if the user has performed the correct action. It works fine, really. If some actions need to be repeated several times, sometimes I will put the note of some of them to 0.

    Really think you can change the training simulation to work as an assessment, in the future it would be best to start with the last mode, possibly in combination with a demonstration or a training simulation.

    Does that help? My assessments are in Dutch, otherwise I could send you an example.

  • Text entry fields

    Hello.
    I have a clip that contains an e-mail form with text entry fields. This MC is then added to another clip which is then added to an another MC. When I test, text entry fields are displayed. The cursor changes to allow the input text, but you can not see the text and can't even see the white text boxes. Something that happens when the MC e-mail form is added to another clip, when you test the form e-mail MC on the main timeline, I have no problem.

    Help please as it is doing my head days.

    Thank you

    Yes they are, and after removing their everything works.
    You are the only person who was able to give a reason for my problem. We at flashkit or flashadvisor did not!
    I'll come here if I have another question.

  • How to show that a text entry field is selected.

    Hello
    How can I show that a text entry field is selected when _focusrect = false; and I use flash lite.
    When the text input field is selected, I want to change is the border color or show a shape... something like that or even the color of the text.

    If anyone is interested, the answer is:

    When the field is developing the text will be empty
    kword.onSetFocus = function(oPrevFocus:Object):Void
    {
    KWord.Text = "";
    }
    When the update go away text will be keyword
    kword.onKillFocus = function(oNewFocus:Object):Void
    {
    KWord.Text = '- key word -';
    }

  • View 2 records text entry fields

    Hello

    New on ADF and want to know how to do a particular task:

    I have 2 lines with 2 different IDs and want to display two records one after the other, I can achieve this by using a table but I want to put the data in the text entry fields?

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    ID name City ZIP code

    1 Fred Bloggs Leeds LS1 2 minutes

    2 Gary Smith Liverpool L2 in 4NP

    is this possible?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can make use of af:iterator. First, create a tree binding based on the data control and use something like this.

               
                        
                        
                            
                            
                        
                        
                            
                        
                        
                            
                        
                    
                
    

    It would show two lines of data. You can adjust the rows property to display the number of lines. If you want all the lines, remove the rows property.

  • Pass a variable to a text entry field in a URL (was: I feel like it should be simple but)

    I think it should be simple, but I'm having a hard time finding how to pass a variable to a text entry field in a URL.

  • Extraction of numbers, no strings of text entry fields?

    Hello

    I have two input boxes that I can type numbers in.  I would like a third entry check box to show the total of the first two.

    I set up a listener to button on the stage to perform a function that adds together when a key is pressed.

    It comes, he puts just the strings together - it ddoesn can't add them

    So, how can I tell Flash that box1.text and box2.text are numbers?

    Box3.text = box1.text + box2.text is not doing.

    Thanks for your time.

    Shaun

    Hi celebrities music

    You will need to get the string to a number.  Something like:

    var firstNumber:Number = Number (box3.text);

    var secondNumber:Number = Number (box2.text);

    answer: var number = firstNumber + secondNumber;

    Of course, you want to make sure that the text in the text field is actually a number and someone was not able to type in a Word.  The best way to do it is NOT to do the textfield a text entry field.  Instead make a dynamic text field and give it a MouseEvent.CLICK event listener.  When someone clicks on the dynamic text input field, bring up a keyboard that requires them to enter the number in this way.

    I have an application exactly like this one where students had to enter a number in a text field to understand the econ issues.  The workflow has something like:

    1. Click the dynamic text field
    2. Bring up the Enter key digital
    3. When the user clicks on a number on the keypad, text matching using a switch statement
    4. Add numbers to text in a string field, that way someone who, between '1', '3' '8' will get 138 and not 12.
    5. With each press of button, update the dynamic text field to show what the user enters
    6. With the user presses the Enter key, then mount this text field in number and store it in a variable of type number

    Hope that helps.  Let me know if you need help with the code for one of these steps.

  • Quote from validation in the text entry box

    Hi all

    I want to validate content beginning and ending with the stock symbol in the text entry box, the user must type it just quotes ("'") in the input text box. So I need to validate the content of the user with quotes

    For example. Let take text1 is my filed input text. And my answer is "Adobe"(quote response also includes").

    If I like it

    Text1.text = "«Adobe"»

    Can someone suggest me to do.

    Thank you

  • Issue of text entry.

    Hi, I have problems with the function of text entry, I had created a comment field but when typing go in a single line.

    I would like to know if theres any way to alow typing in more than one line in the same text field.

    Sorry for my English, thanks.

    I tried the following which resulted in an editable multiline text field (after the change of code in Flash Builder)

    1. Created a text input in CF and resizes to display multi-line
    2. Fc .fxp file imported from Fb and passed (in src/Main.mxml) under the following line of code:

    s:TextInput height = "244" text = 'my text field.' width = "431" x = "191" y = "173" / >

    TO

    s:textarea height = "244" text = 'my text field.' width = "431" x = "191" y = "173" / >

    If you now run your Fb app, it will result in an editable multiline text field.

    Be sure to do it when you have finished the layout and design of your interface in Flash Catalyst. Once you move to Flash Builder, this is where you fill in your application.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to design own graphic interface for text entry

    Hello world

    I use the black background in my application and I would like to create my own custom controls which looks nice on a black background.

    For text input, I managed to create an entry of text with white background and black fonts. But I couldn't make the field to be a little larger than the text nor I was able to focus the State field.

    Code:

    public class CSTextField extends BasicEditField {}

    public {CSTextField()}

    Super (Field.FOCUSABLE |) Field.EDITABLE);

    }

    protected void paint (Graphics g) {}

    g.setBackgroundColor (Color.WHITE);

    g.setColor (Color.WHITE);

    g.fillRoundRect (0, 0, super. getWidth(), super. getHeight(), 5, 5);

    g.setColor (Color.GRAY);

    g.drawRoundRect (0, 0, super. getWidth(), super. getHeight(), 5, 5);

    g.setColor (Color.BLACK);

    Super.paint (g);

    }

    }

    See here: http://liechti-fotografie.ch/share/textfield.png

    Do you have an idea how realize that the focus is visible and the text field seems good?

    Thank you

    Do not design your own text input field - build a Manager around it that meets your needs.

    Here's an example of how this can be done:

    A scrolling line text entry field

    Read the comments - there are a few examples here on adding borders. I don't think you need boundaries, but they can give you ideas on how to position the fields in order to create some padding between the text and the surrounding black background.  You seem to be advanced enough to be able to easily change the code corresponding to your needs.

    Good luck!

  • CP9: Multiple text entry boxes - 1 Submit button

    Hello

    I have several text entry areas (TEBs) and send button 1.

    Each TEB I have a:

    • input variable of text from the user - v_teb1 (associated with the ETB).
    • Variable for the correct answer - v_teb1_ans (do this way because I want to reuse the action advanced)

    I created an advanced action (assigned to the "submit" button) to check the entry of user against the answers.

    So if the answer was 'Home' or 'House' - how can I test for it - create two response variables - "v_teb1_ans_a", "v_teb1_ans_b".

    Is there an easier way?

    Also with "Validation of the user" are the "correct entered" used only with 'Success' and display the success, legends of the failure

    that is when submit button displayed for each TEB, auto-submit is enabled, the Enter button is used?

    Concerning

    Donal.

    Donal salvation,

    This is the problem with the validation of a TEB entry using a tip action, there is no way to disable the distinction uppercase / lowercase. It will be possible if you use JS to change the answer to all the capitals before checking it in.

    I do not understand your last question, sorry? Entered correct are used if you post a BER, but in your case the validation is made only after all the TEB were used, right?

  • Slide auto is using of multiple text entry boxes once the user enters two of the six answers

    I have several areas set up on a slide text entry.  The user must enter the answer in each text box.  And even though I have properties of all TEB "break from legends of success or failure", auto slide advance once the user enters only two of the six responses.  I thought that perhaps insert a click box and setting ' to pause until the user clicks on "would resolve the issue... but it is not.  Here's a screenshot of what my slide looks like and a screenshot of the properties that I set myself for each TEB.  Can someone help me please?  I need all six TEB to complete before moving to the next slide.

    TEBs.PNG

    TEB properties 1.PNG

    TEB properties 2.PNG

    The most important screenshot is missing: chronology. Where are the pausings for the TEB?

    You can start by changing the Actions on the success and the last attempt: they are both set to Continue, which means the playhead will be published immediately after a good response and after exhausting attempts in case of wrong answers. Set them to any Action.

    No Submit button? Only shortcut key entry for each TEB?
