Using ALT + _ with text entry

Hello

I'm trying to use the shortcut Alt + A for multiple text entry boxes, but I can't seem to validate. As I looked for a solution, I found this thread (where someone has tried to use ALT with clickboxes) where Adobe has responded:

The problem is with actionscript 3. It sends no 'Alt' keydown messages for event listeners in actionscript inside the browser. In actionscript 2, there is a utility class named "Key", which has since been removed in Actionscript3. With the help of the 'Key' class we could determine if the 'Alt' key is pressed in AS2. Now that we have lacked the means. »

Does this mean that I can't use ALT as a shortcut?

I use CP5, edition of an exe on a windows machine 7.

Thank you!

I'm afraid that the answer is Yes.  Several keystrokes are problematic in this way.  You will need to find another shortcut to use.

  • Text captions do not appear when it is used with text entry areas (C3)

    I'm building a simulation of accounting system where the learner needs to enter data.  I entered text boxes (one per blade) appearing all the time on the slide.  I have captions that tell the student what to enter, but are synchronized with the audio, then a final text legend who told them how to go to the next slide (press tab, etc.).  My problem is that the text captions do not appear if they are configured to appear after the text input area appears on the time line.  Has anyone experience this problem?  Any suggestions?

    We have created a work around using a highlight box where the text entry box will appear later - so that all the text captions and text entry boxes appear at the same time.  Should be an easier way!

    Hello

    Yes, we see this question over and over again. Especially with new users.

    You need to come to terms with the works of Captivate. Imagine it's like a stream flowing by. Expect a legend to appear, but something stopped the flow. Blocking is your text box for entry (TEB). He interrupts the slide, waiting for your user to enter data.

    The key here is that you need to adjust the point break for ETB.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Notification of instant preview with text entry

    Hey,.

    I wonder if it is possible to add a text entry for quick answers to instant preview, as BBM notifications and Messages. I have not found anything in the API, but it would be really sad if such feature would not be exposed to the public.

    Thank you

  • Bottom of page interferes with text entry

    I'm a newbie with InDesign CS6 rank. I have a document preset for 3 columns. If I enter text with Shift-click, the text flows properly column to column as I want. But if I apply a background first color page (using the Logframe tool and filling), then I can not enter text in the column, but instead, it goes into the background space. And if I have everything first enter text and then apply a background color of page, it covers the text and I can't object-organize-send to the rear, because the function is not active. What can I do to get a page background color AND be able to enter text in a column so that it automatically empties into the following columns?

    1. Use of layers, the background should not be on the same layer as the images or text or page number, I use for each one its own layer. You can lock the layers to protect it from accidentally changing.
    2. Use the object Styles, for each type of text, color or picture frame. Specify it.
    3. Use character and paragraph for any text Styles.

    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.

    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!

  • Removal of spaces of text with JavaScript entries (2016)

    Hello

    I hope someone could help me with a script or even a regular to remove the empty spaces between the words in the text entry boxes.  I found this thread from 3 years, but the code doesn't seem to work - I use 9 Captivate:

    Remove the spaces from the text of the text input area

    At the time was the posted solution:

    var objCP = document. Captivate;

    var jsTextEntry = objCP.cpEIGetValue ('TextEntryBox1');
    var jsNoSpaces = jsTextEntry.replace (/ / g, ");

    objCP.cpEISetValue ('varNoSpaces', jsNoSpaces);

    But again, this does not work for me. Any suggestions? Thank you.

    Bill

    Nevermind, I think I thought about her. For future reference, this seemed to work - exchange the multi-word cpQuizInfoStudentName to OneWordName without spaces:

    getName var = window.cpAPIInterface.getVariableValue ("cpQuizInfoStudentName");

    newName var = getName.replace (/ / g, ");

    window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue ('v_OneWordName', newName);

  • Captivate 9 - text entry area - cannot navigate through the input of text boxes on the same slide using enter key (works only tab)

    I designed a slide that has 3 areas of text entry.

    I need the user to be able to type in their response to the first box and then press the ENTER key, it will pass them in the next text box. After typing in their response to the second box, press ENTER, and then have developed pass to the third area.

    I don't want to use tab, I want to go to work as a shortcut key, so this works well on all devices. It feels like a trip to the logic of the user.

    I removed the button SUBMIT and check the validate user input.

    I put the shortcut key to ENTER in propriety / Actions area

    However, after that type in an answer and pressing on enter, the focus is not moved in the input text box available at the following address on the same blade.

    This happens regardless of browser (tested Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and IE9/10) and also OS - Windows 7, Mac OSX 10.9, 10.10 and latest version of iOS

    Only the tab key works (Ive even tried with other keyboard shortcuts and it always comes back to TAB).

    I know that this feature is possible in Captivate 9. I have read and watched many tutorials online, it seems a very basic feature. I could be wrong.

    This is a feature of wholesale/known or I'm doing something wrong.

    If a bug, is there a plan to fix it soon?

    Indeed, your problem is related to the Enter key as a shortcut key, not to have multiple TEB and one absolutely validation button. Take a look at this article very old (you are not the first to ask about this):

    A submit button for multiple text entry boxes? -Captivate Blog

    But here I explained to indicate to the user click in a next TEB, do not use input.

  • error of 1 element with text alt but no content of the page... Help

    I created a brochure with InDesign and need to do 508 compliant. I have everything except a silly mistake when I do the full check: 1 element with alternative text but no page content. I have looked for forms of ghosts in my file, checked the structure... apparently all. Can't seem to understand how to fix it! Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you

    Can you find an empty tag in the Tags pane? The troublesome tag maybe not a '+' next to it, because there is no content to drill down to. Another thing, you can try if the document isn't terribly long - right click on the first tag, and then select Properties. Let the properties of the window open and click on each subsequent tag in turn to find those with text. Inspect any what alt text tag and delete the one without content. I use Acrobat Pro XI on Windows 10 - your Mac experience may vary.

    I hope this helps.

  • Help with Action Adv & text entry

    Hello, can someone help me create the measures following advanced (I think that's what I need).

    When a learner types 'A' in a text input field, the 'excellent' word appears (on the next page in a summary text box)

    When a learner tape 'B' in a text input field, the word "property" is displayed (on the next page in a summary text box)

    When the letters 'C' 'd', or 'F' is typed in a text entry field nothing shows up. "

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Do not validate the TEB, but you will need to include a conditional action advanced as action of success. I don't know if you also want to ensure that there is an entry? And what must happen even when another character was typed? I would like to create a custom rather than generic user variable attached to the ETB (easier to understand action): v_answer. And for this example I expect a click on the button submit, or use the shortcut entry (default for TEB). This will be the event triggering the advanced action

    On the next page, create two text containers (you don't tell what version? I say text container because you can use both a legend or a form) with the text you want to appear and hide them (in the properties panel). I have them tagged the txt_Excel and txt_Good.

    Your conditional action needs two decisions:

    First great decision

    IF v_answer is equal to A

    Go to the next slide

    See the txt_Excel

    Second good decision

    IF v_answer is equal to B

    Go to the next slide

    See the txt_Good

    ON THE OTHER

    Go to the next slide

  • using the text entry box or text are button

    Hello

    How do these?

    using text or text box widget box.

    to describe:

    in my first slide I text entry areas for

    1 user name

    2. name of the superior

    3. the e-mail of the superior court

    Let's say that: 1. refer to varialbe V_UserN

    2. refer to V_sup

    3 see V_emailS

    next slide would be a video

    next slide would be a text entry or a text box... It is where the user writes anything

    With the button "submit" text entry box

    What I want in this text entry box is... If the user does not write any what upone by clicking on the button submit, the interaction would be 'please write a review on the text box. If the user write something the thing, the Send button run continue.

    How can I do this?

    next slide would be an input text field or a text box... in which the user write something on the issue (this isn't a slide of questionnaire). The message would be sent to the email of superiors. How can I do this?

    hope you can help me.

    Thank you

    To check if the user didn't write anything, you will have to compare the value of the associated variable of the TEB or text box with a v_null user variable. You must create this user variable and simply leave it blank.

    Take a look at my blog:

    Where is no good?

    You create the custom with standard objects question slide. There is a widget mail included with Captivate, but did not try if you can insert the value of a variable by an email address.

    Hello

    http://gumbo.flashhub.NET/keyboard/

    It is a small example of a 'virtual' keyboard that will enter the text into a textinput/textarea component selected. Capslock and shift key States really aren't quite right (really need control shift/cap lock combo), but there is a simple tab and backspace (delete) and enter the function key.

    hope this is useful

  • Printing with button and Submiting text entry in CS4

    I have a few questions if anyone can help me.

    First of all, I'm doing a box where a student their name and then clicks on a button, therefore their name is rememered and arises.  I created an instance of text called "nameText" entry and a submit button that he called "submitMe".

    Second, in this game, that I like to keep track of when a specific button is clicked.  In this game, I have students of first year entering the College decide if the statement applies, college or high school, by clicking a button (called high school or college).  I want to keep track of their choice and display them on a results page, then turn off when I click on the BACK button on the results page.  Each button has its own name for each of the 12 issues (hs1 school C1 for the College, and so on until hs12 and c12).

    Thirdly, I'm looking for advice on how to print in flash.  The person I'm developing this program for wants students to print their results (with their name on it since the input field "nameText") and be able to put him in class.  I don't know how to do this and I can't seem to find a clear way that works.  I made a button called "printMe".

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If you need to send the flash file to look at you, please answer me.

    Otherwise, I have attached the SWF so you can see what I think.

    Thank you!

    If you have a textfield with instance name tf, you can use:

    TF. Text

    to reference the text in the TextField.

    in as2, you need a movieclip for the addPage parameter.  in as3, you can use a sprite.

    Question
    I want to record with < alt > < s > in the Exact program online. This function does not work. This is the first time I use this program with firefox.

    edit, escaped mod < s > in order to avoid the line through question

    A web page can be defined a "accesskey" for an item. Unlike IE/Chrome/Safari, who use the Alt key only, Firefox requires pressing Alt and Shift to activate the element. In other words, try

    ALT + SHIFT + S

    and see if it works.

    I don't know of any way to change this so that the change is not necessary. There may be an add-on?
