How can I get the complete selected text from an AutoComplete TextField?
If I use getText(), I only get the few letters the user has input so far.
Example: I write "flo" and then select "Flowers" from the list, but getText() gives me "flo"
AutoCompleteTextField auto = new AutoCompleteTextField(arrayWithNames);
auto.setMinimumLength(4);
auto.addListListener((ActionEvent evt1) -> {
String lookedFor = auto.getText();
Hashtable<String,Object> match[] = findMatch(lookedFor);
if(hMatch.length>0){
contElements.removeAll();
for (Hashtable<String, Object> Match1 : match) {
...
...//fill the Container with the names found
...
}
}
});
How it works
I am using the AutoComplete TF as a search button.
I have an array with all the names in my list.
Then I populate the Auto with the array.
The user selects a name from the Auto and then I search the value that is being "lookedFor" using the findMatch(). It returns a new array with the found entries.
I need the complete name from the list so I can use the findMatch() method, but when I use getText() from the Auto, it only returns the letters the user entered, and not the whole name, so my method does not work, since I am comparing whole Strings.
(I am using the Auto because it is very convenient if people remember only a part of the name they are looking for)
If you subclass AutoCompleteTextField you can access the selected text internally via getSuggestionModel().getItemAt(getSuggestionModel().getSelectedIndex()). Now you can define a public getter method getSelectedText() or something on your derived class.
I am not sure you are using the AutoCompleteTextBox correctly.
The entire purpose of the AutoCompleteText box is to help you assist the user in selecting from a list of valid requests,
You should not be getting the value of getText() until the user is ready to submit the form where the AutoCompleteTB is located.
This WILL help if you haven't already looked here:

Good luck!

We are automating the UI Application, Our UI application have Disabled Text are present, so we need to Validate the Disabled text. Before validating, I have to Print the Disabled text, Please guide me to how to print the text using Geb/Groovy.
Please find the Image of HTML tag which i highlighted is the Disabled text
BNSF0000712570
BNSF0000712570
The selector above will yield multiple results, i.e. elements, if there is more than one element that matches the classes used in the By.cssSelector query.
To get only the element containing "BNSF0000712570", I would suggest you try to get it using the "ext:qtip" attribute instead (which I assume is unique per element containing a disabled text) on the div containing the disabled text:
def myText = $(“div[ext:qtip=‘Id: 0001’]”).text();
println myText;
assert myText == "BNSF0000712570";
#Saurabh Gar: Why would you use the WebDriver "By" class selectors? With Geb you have access to a wide range of simpler ways to write selectors, e.g. like the one used above.
You should try using By.cssSelector as below :-
def text = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("td.x-grid3-td-elementvalue").text
Or
def text = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.x-grid3-col-elementvalue").text
assert text == "BNSF0000712570"
println text
Note:- If still doesn't get the text need to share table HTML insteadof screenshot that's why, could make a best locator.
Hope it helps..:)
I'm trying to use FlxUICheckBox. In the official documentation, the constructor looks like this:
new(X:Float = 0, Y:Float = 0, ?Box:Dynamic, ..)
What is the Box object?
How should I send a Box object as a parameter to this constructor?
I should probably change it to BoxAsset. It's the image asset you want to use for the box part of the checkbox.
A simple checkbox has three components, and looks a bit like this:
[X] Checkbox
Box means the box part, "[ ]"
Check means the check part, "X"
Label means the text that goes in the textfield next to the checkbox
If you don't provide Box or Check, it will use default FlxUIAssets automatically to skin your checkbox. If you provide your own asset (such as "assets/mybox.png" for example), it will use that instead. It is expecting the same sort of thing you would pass into FlxSprite.loadGraphic() -- a String, a BitmapData, or a FlxGraphic.
I should probably also update the type from :Dynamic to :FlxGraphicAsset, I originally wrote this code a long time ago before they added that new helper type.
I'm running some simple form tests where values are added fields.
After each value is added to a field:
input.SendKeys(value);
I want to check the value in the field is correct. This may sound unusual but the field may have an ajax search attached and if the search doesn't pull back a match, the field will be empty.
I've tried testing the text value of the WebElement after sending the keys but it always seems to be empty:
bool match = input.Text.Equals(value);
// input.Text always seems to be an empty string
I'm using Selenium 2 with the WebDriver - is there another way to perform these checks? Is there a particular reason why the WebElement is empty even if the SendKeys successfully prints a value (actually in the browser) in to the WebElement (textbox)?
Any help would be grateful.
It may be possible that the text value that you are entering is assigned as a "value" attribute of text box and not as "text"
input.sendKeys(enteredValue)
String retrievedText = input.getAttribute("value");
if(retrievedText.equals(enteredValue)){
//do stuff
}
I've got following problem using SmartGWT 2.4:
we are having a DynamicForm showing several static text fields (so the form is in readonly mode). The form uses a datasource in the background and our own FormItemFactory to create proper form items based on our meta data. Some of the form items contain boolean values displayed as strings: like 'isHidden': false or 'canShow': true.
by user action (button click) we need to switch the form to edit mode.
We do it in following way:
we first gather the form values as rec = form.getValuesAsRecord() getting a Record object
then we create a new dynamic form and set into it the same datasource as original has
then we call the newForm.editRecord(rec) method of newly created dynamic form
This way the form static values are shown as editable input fields. However the problem is with those boolean values. They are correctly transformed into check boxes but all of them are checked by default.
I think that the string values 'false' or 'true' are not parsed into boolean values and set as value for respective check box item.
Can I somehow influence this process? I tried to provide an anonymous implementation of FormItemValueParser to CheckboxItem but it turns out to be use only by free text form items.
I'll be really thankful for any given hint.
Try setting the value explicitly to the formItem with record.getAttributeAsBoolean("formItemName")
BooleanItem boolItem = new BooleanItem("boolname");
DynamicForm form = new DynamicForm();
form.setItems(boolItem);
//Get record
Record rec = form.getValuesAsRecord();
boolItem.setValue("boolname",rec.getAttributeAsBoolean("boolname"));
I have a listbox defined in XAML and I filter its items using the following code from text obtained from a textbox:
if (list.Items.Count > 0)
{
CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(list.Items).Filter =
new Predicate<object>((item) => {
string valtoCheck = item.ToString();
return valtoCheck.StartsWith(filterText,
StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase);
});
}
Everything works fine, except in the case where the filter finds no items matching the criteria.
ex. Lets say I have 4 items in the list : Rob,Bob,Andy,John.
When I enter Ro, the list filters accordingly (shows rob).
When I enter b, the list gets filtered appropriately (shows bob).
However, if i enter z (the target list becomes empty), I get an empty list which is correct; but then List.Items.Count is set to zero from that point on. The list becomes empty. I would assume that typing a replacement b should show me Bob but it does not; the list's items are set to empty as soon as I enter text that is not contained in any of the items in the listbox!
Am I missing something here?
I dont see you cannot eliminate the if condition check and just have
CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(list.Items).Filter =
new Predicate<object>((item) => {
string valtoCheck = item.ToString();
return valtoCheck.StartsWith(filterText,
StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase);
});
It's hard to tell without seeing more of the surrounding code but issues like this are usually related to Refresh not being called at the right times. It also looks like you may be reassigning the Filter over and over instead of setting it once and refreshing when the filter text changes.
