When I go into the In-Place Editor Repository and set the WordWrap property = Wrap on a TextEdit (it is being used as the editor in the Vertical Grid) there is no wrapping at runtime. The text tickertapes instead.
My users are clamoring for wordwrap, and they also want to see the text in the field too --not like the MemoExEdit which displays a two-state icon: "empty" and "has some text" and the user only gets to see the text when they give the editor focus.
Is it possible to get wordwrap on an in-place TextEdit? Or is that property setting ignored?
TextEdit is a single-line editor.
You should use MemoEdit instead.
The MemoExEdit can be used as well. Simply set the ShowIcon property to false and the text in the field will be displayed instead of the icon.

I have a table with inputTexts and comboBoxes within it. In edit mode is all working fine, but in read mode, the text within the comboBoxes seem to have padding, but they don't. I checked with Chrome and it seem that the combobox has, by default, another element inside it, a table which contains the text.
Question: How can I remove that table inside the combobox in order for the elements to align better, withouth having to put margin-left and margin-top to the combobox?
Use custom renderers (which is the most elegant way but also advanced).

You can use the rendered property. Show comboBox only if document is in editmode
rendered="#{javascript:document1.isEditable()}"
and add a computed field which shows the value as plain text with the rendered property
rendered="#{javascript:!document1.isEditable()}"
As an alternative, you can use Brad Balassaitis' solution from his blog. He deletes nested tables onClientLoad.
Or, you work with css classes.
For example, we have a QLabel with MaximumWidth set to 400.
When we try to display some text with pixel width more than 400, it's shown cut off.
Is there any way to make QLabel display this string in multiple lines without using QFontMetrics or the like?
If I understood your question correctly, you should use the setWordWrap function for your label, with true as its parameter.
QLabel lbl("long long string");
lbl.setWordWrap(true);
In order to show multiple lines in QLabel, right click on QLabel and select 'change rich text'. This brings up dialog where you can type the text as you want to see including enter key. Setting the word wrap is not required for this.
If you set the word wrap as well (in QLabel properties) than it will wrap each individual line in the Qlabel if it was longer than the real estate.
As another option to wrap text using Qt Designer, you can check the box under Property Editor for a QLabel:
Is there any way to create a textInput box for flex mobile with inline image without using textflow ?
Basically i need a text input component , so that user can just use it as normal text input box but to it images can also be entered inline with text. To enter images user can select the image from list and that image will get inserted at the current cursor position.
If you look at any platform, there is no user experience (as far as I've seen) that lets you add images in the text input box. It's always been straight text, except for android which replaces certain text with icons (like :-) becomes an android icon). I don't think your users would expect that behaviour. If you really do need it, I would recommend you create a custom skin for your textinput box and add that feature into it, but it won't be easy to do.
Hoping to obtain the help of some Flex 3/4 gurus out there...
I am attempting to dynamically change the color of a subset/portion of text in a Spark TextArea control. Using the MX-based TextArea, I could leverage the mx.controls.textClasses.TextRange type and change the color directly as follows:
TextRange tr = new TextRange(theTextAreaControl, false, beginIndex, endIndex);
tr.color = somePredefindColor;
Input Parameters to TextRange constructor:
1st argument: The TextArea control that will provide access to the underlying textField property
2nd argument: Indicates the TextRange will not modify the content of the TextArea
3rd argument: The beginning index position in the TextArea text string
4th argument: The ending index position in the TextArea text string
How would I go about doing this for a Spark-based TextArea control? I am looking to dynamically change the font color for a range of text, not just the entire TextArea AND I cannot statically specify the font color. The problem I run into when trying to re-use the TextRange type is that the 1st argument is expected to provide the textField property, which is currently not on the Spark-based TextArea control. I thought about extending the Spark-based TextArea control to provide this accessor property but that seems like overkill and is probably not the best approach.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael
When manipulating Spark text components, you'll want to use the Text Layout Framework (TLF), which is built on top of the Flash Text Engine (FTE) that was introduced in Flash Player 10. It gives you major control over how the text is displayed (at the cost of being pretty complex.) Here's a good place to start: Using Text Layout Framework
I want to display a big string in a Qlablel for this I simply have created a label in the Qt GUI editor.
Then set the string with the Wordwrap property to "ON".
Here text is not coming to the next line itself. Instead, it's crossing the view region.
However, if I give an "\n" it works well.
How do I put up the big string in a label to display in a visible region?
label->setWordWrap(true);
See the QLabel::setWordWrap(bool on) documentation.
