I want write password of the root to the shell, but without move the cursor when i write it.
prompt = {"Senha de Administrador: "}; your textdefaults = {""}; your text`rowscols = [1,25];
your textsenha_root = inputdlg (prompt, "para Alterar Permissões de porta USB ", ...
your text rowscols, defaults);
I can't, for example, change the color text to the background tex, as alternative
There are several ways to hide text while editing it, depending on what you mean by "hiding" the text and the context in which you are editing the text. Here are a few options:
If you are editing text in a word processor or text editor, you can use the "hidden" text formatting feature to hide the text. This will cause the text to be invisible while you are editing, but it will be visible when the document is printed or exported.
If you are writing code and want to hide certain lines or blocks of code while you are editing, you can use a code folding feature to collapse the code so that it takes up less space in the editor.
If you are writing text on a website and want to hide it from view, you can use the "display: none" CSS style to hide the text. This will cause the text to be invisible to users, but it will still be present in the HTML code of the page.

I have the following requirement (sorry, but I'm quite new to JavaFX).
I need to have a custom TextArea that supports not only entering text but also entering a kind of macro.
This Macro has a unique ID and an associated text. The text should be displayed in the TextArea but with an e.g. light grey background. This is because it should behave as a unit.
You should not be able to click inside the macro and add a char there. The cursor should be placed behind the macro. And is you press just backspace the complete macro should be deleted.
If you call something like getRawContent() of the custom TextArea you should get a placeholder for the macro and not the associated text like:
getRawContent()
==> "This is text part one MACRO:132 This is text part two"
If the macro 132 has the following text associated "XXX123XXX", you will see inside the custom TextArea:
This is text part oneXXX123XXXThis is text part two"
But the text XXX123XXX has a light grey background to show that this text is associated with a macro and could be deleted, copied, and so on as a whole unit. Could be italic as well as in the above line. Should be only a bit different to the generic text.
Could someone assist me?
My Custom Control works now. I used an Eventfilter to prevent the internal Eventhandler to process the keypressed events in order to set the caret position behind a macro or delete the complete macro when DEL or BACKSPACE is pressed, this works.
And I use a Mouselistener to prevent that someone clicks and set caret position inside a macro.
So now I have only the problem left to mark the text somehow that the user can see what is normal text and what macro content.
Maybe I close here and open a new question.
I have an openoffice text using different styles. I need to extract all text in one style as a text .txt file (but not including text marked in the other styles). How can this be achieved?
I tried to mark other styles as hidden and save as .txt, but the result contains all text, not only the one which is visible. If I save as .pdf and then cut and paste the text from I get what I need, but this seems a roundabout solution and I am certain a better one exists.
To select all text with a certain paragraph style, go to Edit -> Find & Replace. Expand Other options and check Paragraph Styles. Then select the style name to Find and press Find All.
Now close the dialog. Copy and paste to a text editor such as Notepad (depending on your operating system). Then save the text file from the text editor.
For character styles, this will not work, so use AltSearch.
I would like to have a text box and a button in my GUI. When the button is pressed, a history window will come up, and if the user selects a previous entry the text that they have highlighted in the edit box will be overwritten.
It should work like copy-pasting, whatever is selected in the history window should be pasted over what is selected, or the new text should be added wherever the cursor is.
Is there any way in Matlab to do this? Is it possible to access what is highlighted in an edit box?
With vanilla Matlab this isn't possible. It appear that Mathworks is in the process of expanding what they support with GUIs (survey 1, survey 2), but as of yet they don't allow this.
One possible workaround is using findjobj.m, by Yair Altman. He discusses edit boxes in this post
You can trace findjobj.m for your text box to find 1 or 2 lines of code that are needed so you don't have to carry around all 3,400 lines of it.
Then all you really need to do is get the selected indices and work from there.
javaHandle = findjobj(editBoxHandle);
startSelect = get(javaHandle,'SelectionStart');
endSelect = get(javaHandle,'SelectionEnd');
Once you have the indexes of what text is selected, it becomes almost trivial to replace that text with the new text.
text = editBoxHandle.String;
editBoxHandle.String = [text(1:startSelect) newText text(endSelect:end)];
One thing to note, when the user clicks the button the text box will lose focus, and it will no longer be clear what text is selected. You can remedy this by giving focus back to the text box, and re-selecting what was selected in the button's callback.
uicontrol(editBoxHandle); %Give focus to the edit box, selecting the entire text
javaHandle.select(startSelect,endSelect); %select/highlight the correct stuff
This will highlight the text that will be replaced with the users selection
I have a table cell of fixed large size, and in it is nothing but a Plain Text Content Control, whose default placeholder text "Click here to enter text" takes up only a small portion of that table cell.
The problem is that if the user clicks anywhere in the cell but outside of the control's placeholder text, then starts typing, the entered text will not be part of the control and will not be subject to the control's style or any other control properties.
So - other than adding a lot of dummy characters to the placeholder text, which doesn't seem to be predictable in its word-wrap behavior, is there a way to make the control's placeholder text (or, in general, its click-boundary) fill the entire table cell?
UPDATE actually there were some carriage returns after the control that I was not aware of; after deleting those, clicking anywhere in the cell as long as the x coordinate if the click is greater than or equal to the leftmost x coordinate of the control will edit the control text value as desired. If you click leftward of the control, you will end up editing whatever fixed text exists to the left of the control, i.e. a fixed text label. Still strange. The workaround here was to split cells for all multi line text entry areas, such that the label is on its own cell, and the control is now at the leftmost edge of its cell.
Content controls do not support something like expanding to the surrounding container. They will always use only the space that is required to render their content.
If you want to prevent users from clicking and typing text outside of the control, you could use the following approach:
Put a rich text content control around your table/table row/cell
Put the plain text content control as a nested content control in the table cell (the plain text content control must be non-vanishing for this to work)
Make the outer content control read-only
Now the only thing the user is allowed to edit is the inner plain text content control. The downside of this approach is that your document now contains areas that are locked. This has an impact on usability, first, because, it may not be obvious to the user why certain areas cannot be modified, and second, because a lot of standard actions do no longer work if part of the selection is locked (e.g. Select All > Update ToC).
In Visio 2013, I have a connector that is in a container that has a gray background color. I successfully changed the background color of the text block by following these steps:
Double-click the connector
Expand the font options by clicking on the icon in the lower-right portion of the 'Home > Font' ribbon area
Click on 'Text Block' tab in the 'Text' dialog
Select 'Solid color' and choose the background color that matches the gray container background color
That works as expected - my text background color is no longer the default white; it now matches the background color of the container.
However, I want to add spacing to the left and right of the text. I tried increasing the margins in the same 'Text Block' tab of the 'Text' dialog mentioned above. This increased the margins but did not extend the background color of the text. A also tried manually adding spaces to the left and right of the text. The leading spaces worked, but the trailing spaces where truncated. Is there any way to add left and right padding to the text (similar to css padding)?
Modifying the text block location/size may give you what you want, combined with text margins.
To modify the text block location, you have to click the text block tool, which is on a dropdown with the text tool (at least in Visio 2003).
I know this is an old question, but I had the same question myself and wasn't able to (quickly) find an answer out there either. I finally hit upon a trick that'll get the result we're looking for:
Instead of spaces, add leading and trailing characters to the longest line in the text box. (I use ".")
Change the color of ONLY those added characters so it matches the text box's background.
The text box's background reaches to the furthest edge of the text within, and we're just using that to get what we want. Since it's just moving the edge indirectly, I consider it a "trick" that we can use instead of a "fix".
Quick list of Cons:
The text box background color has to be solid, or close to it.
The "invisible" text will still exist, so it'll show up in a copy/paste of the text.
Similarly, it may make Searching/CTRL+F for things within the document/file more difficult.
You can use No-Break Space. Insert it from Insert > Symbol.
