Venue 11 Pro - Slim keyboard do not behave as expected, or it must.

I recently received a dell flat keyboard for my 11 Pro - Baytrail tablet coming.    Overall, I like the quality and functionality, although I also like others encountered the intermittent non-functional keyboard, but this isn't the subject of this post.

I noticed a few things in his behavior that do not work as you might expect, and I hope that can be corrected through the software.

1. when the keyboard is connected but folded behind the Tablet back (that is to say the keyboard is not in use) keyboard on screen does not appear.  Which makes it difficult to use the device as a tablet like whenever the data entry is required you must unfold the keyboard and hold it down somehow while you type, then fold back behind the screen to continue the use of the tablet.   When folding keyboard behind the unit of its equally important to set the keyboard to display on layout as it should stop the keyboard itself to operate, right now the keyboard no longer works as it should be unless an alternative entry is available.

2. in the same way as #1.  When the keyboard is attached, but folded back behind the orientation of the Tablet is locked if the screen does not turn in portrait or landscape mode if necessary.  So, if you carried it with the lid / slim keyboard on and open it upwards, folding of behind the screen, the keyboard is locked in landscape mode.   The only method I've found to change his orientation is to go to the desktop and run the application of graphics intel to change direction.

Combined makes the slim keyboard worse than useless in several scenarios of use.   I want the keyboard slim for the occasional need to enter more data as possible on the touchscreen AND protect the tablet... but if your use is more compressed than laptop, you'll find yourself constantly work around these limitations.

You have a great product here, but you really need to take a page from the playbook of the surface here.   They sort of set the standard and expectations for how keyboard covers on tablets should work, and although I really like the material usage is clumsy, in its current form.

Glad to hear you guys are to find some kind of workaround for this.  About the requested changes, I've confirmed with engineering teams that unfortunately these elements are not possible given the current design of equipment.   They are documented for future products however.   Appreciate all the comments on this issue and my apologies for not being able to provide a solution for this product.

    or

    but the OutputText shows:

    The exhaust of the \n and \r characters do not behave properly, they seem to be removing the character following that escaped.

    Anyone has any idea why?

    I started again with a new PDF and new form, with no other writing and got the same results.

    I used under Tools\Content, select an object to change the properties of the text field.

    When I activated the option for "allow Rich Text Formatting' the first following letter each instance of '\n' and '\r' appeared and disappears from the text box.

    I don't know yet how the \n and \r are supposed to behave, but at least there is a reason.

  • Venue 11 Pro 5130 keyboard not recognized battery

    My coming Pro 11 works for mobile keyboard, somehow, but the Tablet no longer recognizes that there is a battery inside.  The battery monitor simply indicates the battery 2: absent.

    Can someone throw any idea on this issue?

    I had a combination of these issues on two different keyboards.

    The first keyboard was the issue when the battery has been recognized but not load or unload. It also did not provide when connected directly to the charger. Subsequently fixed by removing the keyboard, disconnect the battery connector, fix the dock and then re-connect the battery.  These instructions to disassemble the keyboard: [view:www.youtube.com/watch]

    The second keyboard arrived, and the battery has not been recognized by the Tablet PC.  A fast charge directly with the usb charger seems to give enough charge for the battery to be recognized and operate normally.

    is there a permanent solution to this problem?

    This is not something to do with installed programs is not something to do with the browser settings.
    restarting the computer works in a short time, but that is a long time, it's really annoying because I use this for work and study!

    > is there a permanent solution to this problem?

    The question is what causes this problem? Is it related hardware or software related issue?

    Why n t connect a USB keyboard just to check if the same would happen?

    In case the USB keyboard would work fine, I guess that the internal keyboard failures and the solution would be a simple replacement of the defective part.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 keyboard does not work properly after repairs

    Hello

    My 6100 Pro Sam just being away from usual mother board and power Board replacement with Toshiba, but now I have a strange keyboard problem.

    When I turn it on, all the keys are working. After a few minutes, '3' is not working, then 'r' fails, then '5', ' 7 ', ' 8',' 9 ', ' 0' to stop working. At this point, I can feel something very hot under the middle of the keyboard. A reboot and no keys work. Another reboot with the internal keyboard and an external keyboard to the PS2 is still defective (some keys work, others do not), but the outer one works properly.

    Now, if the pc has not obtained if hot as the middle of the internal keyboard, then, I would conclude that the keyboard was defective, but for his failure, slowly and sequentially like this and it fails at the same way every day (since Toshiba rebuild it!).

    Perhaps, internal keyboard controller overheating?
    Anyone know what this could be? :-(

    See you soon,.
    Homer

    Right under the keyboard of your pro 6100 is the VGA graphics controller (the keyboard cable plugs on the same map). It is normal that this part become hot during use.

    It is strange that your problem appears after a while and not immediately.

    It could be just a bad relocation of the keyboard cable (it's a thin layer as a movie negative photo) which easily appears there, but... it may be something more serious, too. (Especially since you had done upgrade where the material had to be changed)

    I consult the service centre once more and ask for instructions how to deal with this. Do not ignore it (using an external keyboard instead of internal dysfunction) because he could end up in something more serious soon...

  • Venue 11 Pro Tablet keyboard Mobile - recharge

    I just 11 Pro keyboard Mobile Tablet instead. I have three questions.

    1 will be responsible of keyboard if the Tablet is embedded in the keyboard and make you pay the Tablet? If not, it seems strange that the port of Exchange is hidden by the Tablet PC when it is docked.

    2. How can you tell how load the keyboard?

    3. If the answer to the question is no, then how can recharge you the Tablet and keyboard with one charger? They give you another one with the keyboard.

    1. Yes.   I think the accusations of tablet to ~ 80% first, then the dock at ~ 80%, then compressed to 100% and then dock at 100%.

    2. double-click on the battery icon in the tray system (windows desktop).   It shows the details for the two batteries.   If you hover over just the single battery in the systray, you will get an average of the two.   You can also run the Dell power management utility for more information on each battery.

  • Venue 11 Pro Ethernet Controller does not not at Gigabit speed

    Hello

    I got a place 11 Pro 7130 with the office computer docking station.  I'm having the same HDMI DVI issues that everyone else is having, however I have also another problem with him where I can't connect to the Gigabit speed network, even if it is announced as having a Gigabit Ethernet card.

    Dell Reference number that was on my order is part # 332-2364, which shows a number of part physically on the dock as model "K10A.

    In Device Manager, it shows my network card, which must be a 6 AX88772C USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet adapt.  Fast Ethernet card I can say only means that it supports speeds of 10/100 MB, while according to the specifications for the dock it shows clearly that its supposed to come with a card Gigabit.  Here is a link to the job description:

    I also have this connected to two different network switches supporting the two Gigabit speeds and none of them will negotiate Gigabit speeds.  On the properties of the adapter in the Device Manager, it shows the highest speed that I can force the adapter is 100 full duplex MB.  When I connect my laptop E6520 to one of these same connections, it immediately detects GIgabit.

    As another test, I plugged a USB31000S Startech USB 3.0 adapter Gigabit Ethernet and that will also establish links to Gigabit speeds.  As by chance also a network ASIX adapter this adapter has, which is a reference number different and is described as an adapter Gigabit Ethernet in Device Manager.

    So, what's the problem with the network card in my desktop dock or is - this false advertising, or y at - it an update of the driver or something?

    Thank you.

    The NIC dock is only 10/100.   Unfortunately, the web page that you reference has incorrect information.   A request was made to change this, earlier when it was caught, but obviously that has not yet arrived.   I'm going to submit another application.    We will soon have a dongle available Gigabit, but he didn't intend to offer gigabit in the current desktop dock.

    Before you use this option, you must activate it with FN + F10 or F11. I put t remember which of these two key combinations is good. Please test.

  • Display.screenshot does not behave as expected

    Hello

    The Display.screenshot method doesn't seem to work as expected. When I call this method, I got the dialog box asking the user or not to allow a screen capture to take. If the user selects Hello but leaves theDo ask not agai box unchecked, the screenshot is not taken. If, however, select 'allow' and check the box "Do not ask again" the screenshot is taken. Maybe that's a problem with the dialog box?

    Here is my code below-
    try {}
    Display.screenshot (this.bitmap, 0,0, Display.getWidth (), Display.getHeight ());
    }
    /**
    * If the user does not have a screen capture taken just display the General image
    */
    {} catch (ControlledAccessException cae)
    This.Bitmap = Constants.BACKGROUND_IMAGE;
    }

    Depends on how you code.

    Personally I d code it as follows:

    (a) have an indicator of persistent screenshot with three States

    0 - does not define

    -1 can't screenshot

    1 is allowed to the screenshot.

    Check this box if you are about to make a screenshot.  In this case - 1 indicate to the user that they have disabled this function be selected permissions.  If it's 0 or + 1, check the permissions API to see if you are allowed to do.  If you are, then set the value to 1 and do.  If you're not, tell them that they need to enable and display the permissions API.  When that is saved, check again.  If they helped him, set the indicator 1 and continue.  If they don't have not enabled it, it the value - 1 and tell them that you can't capture screens because they were disabled.

    Not sure which covers all cases, but you get the idea.

    Ok?

  • Laboratory of port security exercise - do not behave as expected.

    Hello

    I'm working on a CCENT training lab to demonstrate the configuration of port security.

    I have a Catalyst 3550 switch software Cisco's IOS, software of C3550 (C3550-IPSERVICESK9-M), SE Version 12.2 (52), VERSION of the SOFTWARE (fc3). I have two computers connected on ports fa0/1 and fa0/2 with IP addresses of 10.0.0.20/24 and 10.0.0.12/24 respectively. Without active port security, each computer can ping successfully the other.

    As soon as I change the configuration to add port security on fa0/1 I am not able to ping between the two computers, nor can I ping 10.0.0.20 from the console of the switch, but I don't know why! If I delete it again the pings succeed again.

    I expect that the switch must learn the computer connected to fa0/1 MAC and stop if there is subsequently any traffic from another Mac.

    Interestingly, the 'show mac address-table' command shows that the MAC connected to fa0/1 when port security is not enabled. I don't know if this is relevant.

    Can someone help me diagnose what is happening?

    Thank you.

    I suspect that this question is something related to the hardware you use or due to a BUG.

  • RegEx does not behave as expected

    Hello, all,.

    I think I may have posted about this, before, but received no response; I have to (unfortunately), then try again.

    I use a regular Expression to map the complete physical location on the hard disk where the site is located.  I need this for a CFFILE tag.

    I use a regular expression instead of hard coding the location is because the location varies depending on whether it is used in the production, development or put in scene.  (Yes, I know, all three should be mirrors of each other - I'm working on it.)  )

    For example, our DEV environment should the CFFILE tag to point to the E:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\wwwroot\www\ folder.

    Our environment needs the CFFILE tag to point to the C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\www\ folder.

    Our production environment should the CFFILE to point to the F:\webdocs\cf\www\docs\ folder.

    I don't want to really be hackers on this matter and use CFIF or CFSWITCH to set the variable 'this.webrootmapping '.  In addition, if nothing is changed, I have to come in and change the code.  Is not ideal.

    So, I use a regular expression.  I'll also put it so that it will always point to the ROOT, no matter what subfolder, the user is in.

    What I (and does not work for the production environment) is:

    <cfset this.webrootmapping = REreplaceNoCase(ExpandPath('./'),
               '(.+[\\|\/]www([\\|\/]docs)?[\\|\/])(.+)',
               '\1',
               'all') />
    

    EC that it is supposed to do, is accept all the folder "www" or "www\docs" folder and delete all after that.

    It's in dev and staging; It does NOT work in production (where the root ends in "\docs\".)  The question mark must be indicating "zero or one \docs".  But it's not.

    Any idea is appreciated.
