I have to interact in javaFx with text and have no fitting "node" for this situation.
I have to select a displayed text by mouse. This selection has to be highlighted with a specific background-color. Each further selections have to have other background colors and some selections have to have the same background-color. By click at the highlighted text, an event has to be activated/fired. It would be wonderful if there is also an contextmenue to interact with at right click on the marked text for removing the action and highlighting abilities. This text should be scrolled to by an other action event and at least to have a logical connection/reference/identification to a java object what is created with the content of the highlighted text. I have some external text filters, so I have to remember the position of the highlighted text.
Do you have any suggestions? Is there a right node for this in JavaFx? Any hidden library?
I am really frustrated because my actual solution with the webview element/webengine is very messy and some features are missing.
Actual solution:
Cycle1: Text => useFilter => constructHtmlReadyText => putIntoWebEngine => displayInWebViewer
Cycle2: OnMouseReleased => getPositionOfTextAndText(by JavaScriptEngine) => addInformationOfPositionAndText => Cyclus1
The main problem on this scenario is to get the position of the selected text on the second selectioncycle.

GWT newbie here. I have found that when I make a TextArea read-only useful features such as dynamic expansion and even word-wrapping stops working. My intention was to move a string from one text area, append it some way to some more strings, and then add this string into my read-only TextArea. I have doing something like this:
// Temporarily enable the field to set the value of the TextArea
logTextArea.setEnabled(true);
String remarks = // my string to add into the box
if (remarks.length() > 0) {
logTextArea.setEnabled.setValue(remarks);
}
// set read-only again
logTextArea.setEnabled.setEnabled(false);
I also have to work out how many lines I now span and explicitly set the height of the box (via setVisibleLines()). I have now found that it does not word-wrap, so I've had to add some more horrible bodge-code to further split up this string.
So I'm writing code to emulate functionality that comes for free on a normal writable TextArea. Has anyone else found this issue after setting a text-field read-only? Is there another widget I could possibly use to display a list of read-only strings that will auto resize and auto wrap for me?
Many thanks for your time,
tom
Text Area is fine for re-sizing and auto word wrap, even you have your text
area as read only.
Tested now by creating a test project for gwt and it is working fine.
Also Word Wrap is the default behavior of Text area if you want to turn it off then you need to explicitly do this "getElement().setAttribute("wrap","off");
I would like to rip off Google's design for my Continuous Form. The detail section of the form is set up to display N number of records resulting from a search, and thus cannot be used to create this effect (i think). Everything must go in the header section.
there are 2 primary issues I would like to address in this question:
Two toned background. The header section should have a grey stripe and a white stripe. This stripe needs to extend the full width of the form, which is variable and will depend on the user. (i'm using tabs not pop-ups)
How to right justify certain elements of the header so that they stay close to the right edge, wherever that may fall, just like your account information on Google.
The "Search Results" in the detail section are loaded by setting the form's recordSource to the results of a query defined in VBA, which takes parameters from the search box. The form is continuous.
Any ideas how to hack this into place?
Recent versions of MS Access provide improved form layout features when using the ACCDB database file format.
The screen captures below are based on a form in Access 2010. The second image is after the form width was expanded, but it's scaled down for display on this web page. However you can open those images directly to compare their relative widths.
The grey color is from the form header's Back Color property. The white box is a simple text box whose Back Color is white and Back Style is Normal (not Transparent).
The text box's Horizontal Anchor property is Both, and its Can Grow property is Yes. The other 3 items ("?", "Button 2", and "Button 3") are command buttons. Their Horizontal Anchors are set to Right and their Can Grow properties are No.
The result of those properties is that when the form expands, those command buttons maintain their size are are kept right-aligned within the form. And the text box stretches to fill the remaining available space.
Note this behavior is accomplished without any VBA code.
I think these layout capabilities were introduced in Access 2007 and perhaps refined in 2010.
For the background, use two rectangles with transparent borders, one back color gray, one white. You can size them to the form by using the form's InsideWidth property. For example:
Private Sub Form_Resize()
rect1.Width = Me.InsideWidth
rect2.Width = Me.InsideWidth
End Sub
I would do a similar thing for the buttons/images/etc you want right justified. Set their Left property relative to the form's width:
mySettingsButton.Left = Me.InsideWidth - 300
Keep in mind all the measurements are twips (1440 twips/inch)
Using the report-designer of Reportbuilder i want to add a long fixed text to my report with one or more included fields inside the text. Of course these fields should be filled with actual data, adjusting the text.
I remember I have done such a thing in the past, but cannot remember how. I thought you could accomplish this with a Text-field and something like 'This is the text and here {fieldname} fielddata is inserted', but that doesnt seem to work
Can anybody help?
Using reportbuilder 15.04
Response from Digital Metaphores:
Use the RichtText component! By setting MailMerge to true, you can add
datafields to text in the richtext editor
This adds the reference to the fielddata as a xml tag. Adding the fields Name from pipeline plData can be done like this:
<dbtext datapipeline='plData'>Name</dbtext>
Fill in the fixed text, then (making sure the focus is set to the text box, I.E. you have the flashing pipe cursor) right click in the place you want the data field to go, and click Create Placeholder.
In the Placeholder properties window give it a Label so you know what it is, then use the "Value" field to define what data from your datasets you want to be brought through.
You should end up with the Label you set in square brackets, like [Example] within the set text.
I have got a little problem with Celltables... I'm kind of newbie in GWT so need your help to figure it out =))
problem is quite simple, when I click on a row (or on a checkbox of particular row), this row becomes selected and gets blue , like on this picture :
http://s020.radikal.ru/i706/1311/f1/3de6ae1d0b9f.jpg
Then, all of a sudden (after 2-3 sec) selected row becomes unchecked and uncoloured, but it's selected as you see on a label above, see pic :
http://s57.radikal.ru/i155/1311/6c/4dc4872886d7.jpg
All I want is that it doesn't uncheck and receive default color by itself, I want it to stay in blue. here is the code fragment I use to generate my celltable: http://pastebin.com/HHeJHXpv
I have not been able to find any indicator which could tell me whether text in txBody tag is bulleted or not, can you please me in identifying which indicator should I use to understand whether the text is bulleted or plain ?
-Thank you
Inside the txBody tag, you can look for the tags "a:buFont" and "buChar" which helps you identify that the text is bulleted. eg.
<a:buFont typeface="Arial" pitchFamily="34" charset="0"/>
<a:buChar char="•"/>
Update:
Hi, +1 For posting this question, learnt a lot from it.
After googling I found this link which addresses similar issue, the resoponse from Adamm clears this,
"Ok, so i think ive got this figured out. Basically if no formatting
is specified in the layout or the slide, it goes to the master, and if
its a 'title' or 'ctrTitle' shape it uses the formatting in
and it defaults to lvl1. Same goes for text that is not
in a title shape, for these it defaults to the formatting in
and if no lvl is specified it defaults to lvl1. And
another piece of advice, although not pertinent to my original
question, there is another txStyle in the slideMaster,
which is used for text in a shape that is not in a txBody."
Now the slide in your pptx is using "Office Theme" and the text you are interested in is in the format shape within the slide design. The bulletted text is inheriting from the slideMaster1.xml in SlideMasters.
As mentioned in the above quote the buletted text is getting inherited from "a:lvl1pPr" of "p:bodyStyle" in the slideMaster1.xml, also you can see the level 2 bullet is defaulted to "-" for the office Theme slide master there.
I tried to confirm this by changing the char = "•" to ">" to see the bulleting changed to ">" in the below line
<p:bodyStyle>
<a:lvl1pPr marL="342900" indent="-342900" algn="l" defTabSz="914400" rtl="0" eaLnBrk="1" latinLnBrk="0" hangingPunct="1">
<a:spcBef>
<a:spcPct val="20000"/>
</a:spcBef>
<a:buFont typeface="Arial" pitchFamily="34" charset="0"/>
<a:buChar char="•"/>
....
Now if you want to change it programatically you can do this from slide master 1. But the only problem here is When we change the bulletted style here(like above), it is changing for all the slides and also for the future slides you will be creating with the same theme within your ppt.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
