I am creating a scratch project where you have to press space bar to move and I have found an exploit: holding down space bar because the project is designed to improve your SBPS (space bars per second) not just hold down space bar. How can I stop the user from holding space bar then?
I already know that you are checking if the user is pressing the space bar, that's a good start!
You have to stop recording any space bar press when the user has pressed the space bar.
After that start recording the space bar press again once the user has released the space bar so that they would be discouraged from such an exploit.
Here's an example code block:
(from enblazingfire's answer on the Scratch Forums)
use [wait until <not <key [space] pressed?>>]
This will prevent the code from running until they're not pressing the space bar.

A navigation bar button item has the option to set it to a "lock" symbol. this can be done in the options pane on the right hand side in Xcode. Is it possible to use this on a UILabel? maybe in code? because i can't find the lock item in the options pane for a uilabel.
I don't think there is any "lock" symbol for navigation bar button item. The closest I can think of is ".Stop". However, SF Symbols can be used to represent both Lock or Stop. It'll be a good place to start
Is there a way for a user to reduce the icon size on the activity bar without it effecting the whole editor?
Perhaps similar to how Ubuntu allows the scaling of icons on the dock.
I use the activity bar and it's visual cues far to frequently to hide and unhide it, but it would be nice to reduce it's real-estate usage just a bit.
In VS Code Editor press CTRL+-, this will increase/decrease the size of the entire UI (all icons, text and menu items, etc.).
Just downloaded VSCode, ver 1.28 and the activity bar (left side) and the left side of the side bar are not there. This happened yesterday too, so uninstalled the program and tried again today.
I have no way to get to settings, debug, search, etc. Tried right clicking on black space and they don't show up, merely options to open a new file. If I do open (untitled) I still do not get that left part of the screen. I am comparing it to MS's user interface page (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/userinterface). Is it possible that I would have to change the resolution on my laptop?
Thanks.
From the menu bar at the top try
View/Apperance/Show Activity Bar
When the Activity Bar is visible, this option will show "Hide Activity Bar"
See screenshot
1.Simple go to the setting
2.Under the user settings search for Activity Bar.
3.You'd find it under the workbench.
4. Click the Activity bar visible and that's green and working.
Another way to loose Activity Bar is to accidently active Zen Mode. Check if
View/Apperance/Zen Mode
is checked and if so uncheck it.
You can also pull up the command pallet with
Ctrl + Shift + P
Then type/select
View: Toggle Activity Bar Visibility
This is driving me mad! I love the new layout options in Word 2013, but when a callout gets to a certain size the icon for it obscures the end of the arrow, and you can't move the arrow:
Don't suppose anyone knows either how to get rid of the icon, how to click and drag on the yellow end of the arrow, or how to stop the icon appearing in the first place?
Thanks in advance.
Here are two answers that helped me. The second option gets rid of the floating Layout Options button, but at the cost of disabling some features of Word 2013.
First Option:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/any-way-to-disable-the-layout-options-button/47f6af4a-2acd-483e-a953-6415c8530554
It might help to increase the zoom (use the slider at the right end of the status bar) while you work with the picture.
Second Option:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/layout-options-icon-word-2013-suddenly-missing/ce304589-9db2-44c5-b1e1-8fd6596b70c4
Is the document in Compatibility Mode (shown by those words appearing in the title bar along with the document name)? If that's the case, click File and then click the Convert button. That will make the Layout Options button appear when a picture is selected, as well as turning on other features that are available only in the 2013 format. When you save, the document file will change to the .docx extension.
I know the second quote is about turning the Layout Options button on, but it works backwards, too. I saved my file as a *.doc instead of a *.docx and the floating button went away.
When you're finished editing your callouts, you can save it again as a *.docx.
One method that helped me was to flip horizontal, change the leader position, then flip back. That way the leader line is temporarily on the opposite side of the layout button, and both handles of the leader line are accessible, then can flip back. It is an extra step, but is another alternative.
In an attempt to automate this to quickly flip the object back and forth, I couldn't find a macro command to make a shortcut, or anything under Customize Ribbon with custom Keyboard Shortcuts to Flip Horizontal (MoreRotationOption opens up a dialog which does not give an option to flip).
The Flip Horizontal command could be called by pressing ALT JD (Format) AY (Rotate Objects) H (Horizontal) when the object is selected...
The best I could do was to add Rotate Objects to the Quick Access Toolbar, then the Flip Horizontal command could be called by pressing ALT # (whatever number you assign) H (Horizontal) which is three keystrokes.
In gtk2 (.rc) and GTk3 (.css) how do you theme the default button in a dialog ?
(The one that will be activated when hitting enter)
In Lubuntu 12.10, the default theme (/usr/share/themes/Lubuntu-default) has a file in the gtk-2.0 folder called button.rc. There are five "states" listed: normal, prelight, insensitive, active, and focus. It is my impression (from a bit of fiddling), that the "focus" state represents the one you are interested in. In other words, if a window with a few buttons is present, it is the button in the focus state that will be "pressed" or "clicked" by hitting enter.
In Lubuntu 12.10, the screen that appears when you click "Logout" from the main menu (or run lubuntu-logout from a terminal) illustrates this well. Of the seven "buttons" that appear, the topmost one, Shutdown, is shaded slightly differently (or has a focus ring) whereas the other six are similar to each other except for the text. Hitting "enter" without doing anything else is equivalent to clicking the "Shutdown" button.
I too am trying to figure out how to make the button in focus, if we call it that, a bit more contrasty.
For the gtk2 side of things, if you're happy with making the focus ring more obvious (but a bit more ugly), editing the theme's gtkrc may be one way. Look for a section captioned style "default" and then for a line that has something like
GtkWidget ::focus-line-width = 1
Changing 1 to 2 or 3 will make the focus ring more obvious.
(I haven't got round to looking at gtk3 apps.)
