My aim is create custom event on Text Component. When I choose one word or when I highlight couple of words, event should fire to open a "buble view" upon, below or near that specific text.
I have found this package here react-native-selectable-text but it does not provide the functionality that I want.
https://github.com/Astrocoders/react-native-selectable-text
Two steps
1) How to create that selectable action. I am not talking about Text prop selectable which only opens a menu of copy, paste, select all options. I want to open a view like that menu. A view which will contain information about highlighted text.
2) How I can render a small box(View comp.) with specific coordinates. Like when I choose that text, box has to be rendered upon or below of the text.
I know direct manipulation. But hard part is how am I going to give that select&highlight action to text component?

i have tried to create my own contenteditable element, but its painful, i got issues in selection/caret position etc. so im wondering is it possible to do this in draftjs?
I have a custom filter component I'm giving Ag grid for each column. The component contains a dropdown. When user selects an option from dropdown, the filter closes immediately on selection rather than staying open like it should.
How can I keep the filter component to stay open on selection of option from dropdown?
Reading the docs more, I found the answer here:

Custom Filters Containing a Popup Element
Sometimes you will need to create custom components for your filters that also contain popup elements. This is the case for Date Filter as it pops up a Date Picker. If the library you use anchors the popup element outside of the parent filter, then when you click on it the grid will think you clicked outside of the filter and hence close the column menu.
There are two ways you can get fix this problem:
Add a mouse click listener to your floating element and set it to
preventDefault(). This way, the click event will not bubble up to the
grid. This is the best solution, but you can only do this if you are
writing the component yourself.
Add the ag-custom-component-popup CSS
class to your floating element. An example of this usage can be found
here: Custom Date Component
Using CodenameOne,
I have a Form that the user needs to fill in. All of the components, however, are actually Containers that represent custom functionality. As an example, I would have a TextField alongside a Button on a Container, and I would use that Container as a "Component". This allows me to create more advanced functionality by combining existing Components.
A good example of where this is necessary is that of a custom date entry field existing out of 3 TextFields or a combination of TextFields and ComboBoxes.
I have a "Field" that has functionality for that of a Contact Component.
This all serves as a single "Unit" in order to allow the user to choose a contact or fill in their own. Buttons open Dialog popups, etc.
My problems comes with when the user uses the Android keyboard. Should this Contact Object be the second "Field" and the user presses the 'Next' button on the Android keyboard, the App does not know what field to give focus.
Furthermore, If one of the fields are a ComboBox or a Button and the user presses next to reach that Component, the keyboard doesn't close, and instead removes the 'Next' button, replacing it with a return button or an emoticon selector.
Below is an example situation:
The user would press on the first field, the Keyboard shows up, and when the user presses next, the keyboard's Next button dissapears, as the immediate next field happens to be a Button or ComboBox.
Is there a way to change the focusing index, or omit certain fields form ever gaining focus in this way? I tried making the entire thing a Component but that doesnt allow me to combine other Components. Even if it is possible to make the parent Container a Component, how would I solve this particular issue?
The default behavior is to use the "next focus down" for this functionality so just use setNextFocusDown(nextTextField) on each one of the components. Notice that a ComboBox won't work as expected although you might want to change that to an AutoCompleteTextField which would.
Another question for you Filemaker Pro experts. The database I am developing starts with a Main layout with a number of buttons (e.g. insert new item, show all items, etc.). Each button is associated to a script, which takes the user to the relevant layout. In each of these layouts I show the buttons in a row, and highlight the current layout with inverse colour.
My problem is that some of the buttons lead to the same layout, viewed in different modes, and I don't know how to conditionally highlight the right button.
For instance, Insert new item and Show all items take to the same layout, however in the first case the script views the layout as a form and inserts a new record, while in the second I view as a list and show all records. The layout is the same, though, so I'd need to enact a conditional formatting based on something. How do I do that, and what should I check against?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards.
Presumably you are currently using the formula: Get (LayoutName) to decide on your conditional formula, why not try additionally using formulas: Get(WindowMode) and Get(LayoutViewState)?
You could conditionally format the button if (which sends user to MyLayout in browse mode):
Get(WindowMode)=0 and Get(LayoutName)="MyLayout"
Or (which sends user to MyLayout in form view):
Get(LayoutViewState)=0 and Get(LayoutName)="MyLayout"
.
Other functions which may help could be Get(FoundCount) and Get(TotalRecordCount). You can see the entire list of Get functions here.
I've got a basic extension that - highlights text (currently an xml open tag ) and provides a context menu button which will open a WPF form. What I'd love is an easy way to pass the content of ... to the form when the button is clicked (and back from the form later). What would be fine as well is doing the same with selected text (select the text, hit the button on the context menu...). The thing is, I can't find a reasonably easy way to pass text (selected or processed) to the form from the editor window to the form.
Is there an easy way to do this?
