to limit the input in the xcontrol string characters

Hello

I followed an example online at deveope an xcontrol for the input string, but limit the input only characters for capital letters from A to Z. I have the main code as follows

In the key to the bottom of the event, I throw all input character with the ASCII beyond [65, 90]. Sounds works but if I continue to press a prohibited (e.g. %), it will show that the key in the control. So, how can I ban the entry by a long press on a button? Thank you.

Maybe including an event ' key repeat? It will handle the case when a character is added when the user holds the key. I think that you will just need to copy the code in the event "button down?

  • Limit the number of characters in a text based on the first digit field

    Hello and thank you in advance for your help!

    I want to limit the amount of characters in the text field based on the first digit of the number (the text field is limited to a number format... no decimals, no comma).

    For example, if the number starts with a 3, I would limit the text field to allow only ten characters. I have three scenarios but if I could start with code and what is the best place to add (key combination or validation?) I can take it from there. Thanks again for your help!

    I wrote this code for you that does this. Use it as a typo of the custom field code:

    // Validate that only digits are entered
    if (event.change) {
        event.rc = /^\d+$/.test(event.change);
    }
    
    // Validate string length if it starts with 3
    if (/^3/.test(AFMergeChange(event))) {
        event.rc = AFMergeChange(event).length <= 10;
        if (!event.rc) app.alert("If the number starts with \"3\" it may not be longer than 10 digits.",1); // optional error message
    }
    

    You can duplicate the second part of it for additional terms, but keep in mind that this code won't let you even remove the first character in the field if the result is not valid.

    For example, if you enter "234567890123456" then you can't remove the "2" at the beginning because that would result in a number not valid. You can delete all the other numbers, even if and when it is 10 digits or less, then you can remove the departure "2" as well.

  • Unable to limit the amount of characters using {tag_name} under webapps

    Nice day

    We have a WEB APP for and must limit the amount of characters that are displayed on the Web page under the view of LIST of WEB applications. and we tried the following:

    {tag_name, 10}

    {tag_name, 50}

    {tag_name, 400}

    {tag_name, 400}

    It does not matter what I try, it shows all the characters on the name of this WEB APP.

    for example web app name:

    Test event 1 Test event 2 Test event 3 Test Event 4 Test event 1Test event 1Test event 1 Test event 2 Test event 3 Test Event 4 Test event 1Test event 1Test event 1 Test event 2 Test 3 Test 4 Test 1Test 1 event event event event

    Is there a way to limit these, im I something wrong? @

    Hello

    {tag_name} at the point in the webapp doesn't have this feature, so you have mixed two things here, the tag name and

    {tag_description, number of characters}: Description of the element (content editor). On the 'Layout (Backup) list', you can use {tag_description, 10} to display the first 10 characters of description of the element of the webapp.

    Hope this helps

  • Limit the number of characters on the Master Page?

    language: php

    Question: In regard to the master page, does anyone know how to limit the number of characters to display only 250 in Dreamweaver CS4?

    That is easily fixed. Use this custom instead of the function:

    function extractChars($text, $chars = 250) {
         if (strlen($text) < $chars) {
              return $text;
         } else {
              $pos = strpos($text, ' ', $chars);
              return substr($text, 0, $pos) . '...';
         }
    }
    

    Put this function definition in your page and use it like this:

    echo extractChars($row_recordsetName['fieldName']);
    

    If the text is less than 250 characters, you will have just the full text. If it is more than 250, you get the shortcut text.

    The function has an optional second argument, which determines the number of characters you want to use as a boundary. So, if you want only the first hundred, follow these steps:

    echo extractChars($row_recordsetName['fieldName'], 100);
    
  • How you can limit the number of characters in a string attribute?

    I'm trying to fix a limit on the amount of characters that can be introduced to a string attribute.

    I saw that you can do when the user changes the web using regex mode, but how you can specify a maximum length when the user is in the form view that this currently replace the regex used in the tag on the inside: edit

    Thanks in advance,

    Andrew

    Hi André,.

    You can use the output of the editor boxes TEXTFIELD attribute.

    Just create a new attribute with the following configuration editor in the XLM:

    You can manage the size-> XSIZE and maximum number of characters-> MAXCHARS.

    I hope it helps.

  • {{description}} Limit the number of characters

    Legacy code, in a web application, you could use{tag_description,number of characters} to limit the description to the first X amount of characters.

    Is there a way to do this with the Liquid tag {{description}}?

    As a note I tried {{description,100}}. It rendered the content but all of it, not the first 100 characters.

    The truncate filter will do the job:{{ description | truncate 100,"..." }} (docs)

  • [FB4] TextInput: Limit the number of characters

    I have a spark textinput that I added a custom under the skin button. The button is located on the right side of the entrance. The issue I'm having is that when the text is entered, I need to have him stop just before the button and then add to the string of text that more characters are added. Currently what is happening, is that the text goes behind the button until it reaches the end of the text input. I tried to change the widthInChars property, however that does not have an impact.

    I have attached a picture illustrating the problem with the vertical red line showing where I want the text to end.

    Thank you.

    in fact not have the chance to watch it, but if you look at other parts of the skin, you will see that everything is settled that they don't care what you want...

    override the updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,_unscaledHeight:Number):void function

    If (("borderVisible") value is true)

    {

    Border.Visible = true;

    Shadow.Visible = true;

    Background.Left = background.top = background.right = background.bottom = 1;

    on the other

    Background.Left = background.top = background.right = background.bottom = 0;

    textDisplay.left = textDisplay.top = textDisplay.right = textDisplay.bottom = 0;

    borderStroke.alpha = value ("borderAlpha");

    super.updateDisplayList (unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);

    }

    displaytext right of property will always return to 1 or zero...
    so

    textDisplay.left = textDisplay.top = textDisplay.right = textDisplay.bottom = 1;

    becomes

    textDisplay.left = textDisplay.top = textDisplay.bottom = 1;

    textDisplay.right = 35

  • BB10: How to limit the number of characters in a TextField

    Hi guys,.

    I need to set a max for a TextField length.

    It seems that there is not any property that does this.

    Any idea on this?

    Thank you!

    The first approach that comes to mind is cut the chain to length in onTextChanging handler.
    Something like
    If (id.text.length > 30) id.text = id.text.substr (0.30);

  • limit the number of rows

    I know how to limit the number of characters that a user can enter, but is there a way to limit the number of rows that a user can enter in a textbox.

    If your textfield is multi-line (and I guess it is), it makes no sense to limit to a number of lines, unless you want to prevent having to scroll. otherwise, reduce your textfield.

    to prevent having to access you can use:
